As Xiang Yunsheng estimated, early the next morning, Lao Tu came to him. With him was a woman in her thirties. She meticulously combs her hair in a neat bun, and her Mandarin is also very standard, but it is different from the natives of Xiongcheng.

Bai Xiu let them into the reception room and listened to him tell him the ins and outs.

It turned out that this woman's name was Xun Fang, and she was the proprietress of a local hotel in Xiongcheng, because she handed over the business to her younger brother to take care of, she usually only had to check the accounts every few days.

But when she went to the hotel to inspect the hotel a few days ago, she noticed a strange thing.

This hotel is called Linlang Hotel, there are eight floors, the first floor is the reception hall, the second floor is the cafeteria, the third floor to the eighth floor, except for the fourth floor, there are guest rooms.

And that strange thing happened on the empty fourth floor.

According to Xun Fang, because of the taboo of the number four, she left the fourth floor idle, and the elevator in the hotel never stopped on the fourth floor, and if you want to go up the fourth floor, you have to go up a staircase from the side door. However, she was quite financially savvy, but instead of wasting the fourth floor completely, she opened an exhibition hall that was rented out for exhibitions by art students from nearby companies and universities.

Last night, at about eleven o'clock, because of some delays during the day, Xun Fang's routine inspection of the hotel was also a few hours late. She had always been resolute and didn't want to put off her trip until the next day, so she didn't postpone her plans.

In fact, there were no problems with this tour. Accompanied by her brother and sister-in-law, she walked up and down and felt very satisfied, so she left the hotel and asked the driver to take her home.

And when she came home to wash and rest, she found that something was wrong, her mobile phone was left in the hotel. She thought about it carefully, and it seemed to have been forgotten by her office on the eighth floor.

Xun Fang has a special habit of listening to the recordings on her mobile phone before going to bed, which her husband left for her before he died. found that the mobile phone she relied on the most was lost, and Xun Fang was naturally anxious. She first used her home landline to make a call on her mobile phone. After all, there are still people on duty in the hotel, maybe they can help her send her back.

It's a pity that no one answered her several times, and it seems that she didn't call at the right time, and the person on duty may have something to do. She called his brother and his sister-in-law again, but they still couldn't get through. She didn't find it strange either, after all, it was so late that they might have fallen asleep.

After much hesitation, she drove back to the hotel by herself. She walked into the reception hall, and the front desk on duty greeted her, and one of them helped her press the elevator. The other party wanted to go up with her, but she refused. Because she also has a habit of liking to be alone when she is irritable, so in the end, she got into the elevator alone.

At this point, everything is normal. But what happened later made Xun Fang unable to figure it out anyway.

She entered the elevator, pressed the button on the eighth floor, and the door slowly closed. Because she was busy all day, she was too tired to do it, so she stood for a while and actually took a nap.

After a few seconds or more, she couldn't be sure, and then the elevator suddenly stopped and the doors opened. She thought she was on the eighth floor, so she walked out quickly. The lights in the hallway were off, and it was pitch black.

It's also strange that she was in a hurry to retrieve her phone at the time and didn't notice this detail. She was familiar with the hotel, so she walked towards the office in the dark. When she reached the door, she took out the key from the small bag she was carrying with her and opened the door with her hand.

The first thing she did when she opened the door was to turn on the light, and after a while of feeling the opening, she found it. Strangely, she pressed it a few times, but the light didn't come on.

This made her complain a little, after all, the hotel has its own generator, there is no possibility of a power outage, the light can not be turned on, it must be broken, the electrician hired by the hotel did not replace it in time.

She was a little helpless, so she simply rummaged in the dark. But the strange thing is that she obviously put her phone on the desk before, but she never found it.

This undoubtedly made her think that her mobile phone was most likely taken by someone, and what was even worse was that this person did not notify her. At that time, she had only one thought in her head, to ask the hotel people to check the surveillance to see which guy had taken her phone away.

She left the room and headed for the elevator. Something terrible happened, she walked down the corridor to the end, and she touched a cold concrete wall, and the elevator was gone!

It was so weird that she shook off and calmed down completely. She touched it carefully, and there was really no trace of the elevator door in front of her, as if it had only been three minutes before someone had built a wall here and blocked it to death.

Xun Fang's achievements today are a bold and careful person. Seeing that there was no way out here, she followed the route she remembered and walked towards the fire escape not far away.

It's not too far from the elevator, about ten meters away. Inevitably, she was going in the wrong direction, so she stopped one step at a time and slowly moved over. When she got to the corner, she settled down a little, and if she remembered correctly, the stairs were behind them. However, when she continued to explore, she still touched the cold wall.

Undoubtedly, this surprised her to the extreme, the layout of the hotel, every floor is the same, this is her own plan, she can't be mistaken. Although she lied a little in her heart, she didn't mess up. After all, the business of Linlang Hotel is not bad, even if it is the highest floor, it will not be completely empty.

Thinking about it, she knocked on the door of a nearby room, trying her luck. If there is someone, she can ask for help. If the room is empty, she can use the phone inside to call the front desk.

A dull knock on the door echoed in the empty hallway, and for no apparent reason it made her heart flutter. Seeing that no one responded, she twisted the door lock. The door was opened by her in an instant, but unfortunately she didn't have a room card and couldn't connect to the power in the room. She pressed the switch on the light, and sure enough, there was no response.

She fumbled for the phone in her room. Like most hotels, the rooms at Linlang Hotel are ensuites with toilets, a bed, a floor-to-ceiling mirror, two sets of tables and chairs, a wardrobe, and a TV and computer.

She entered the room in the dark and touched the double bed, after all, in the hotel, the landline is usually placed on the bedside table, and the Linlang Hotel is no exception.

She quickly grabbed the edge of the bed and moved towards the head of the bed. At this moment, she noticed that the quilt on the bed was not flat, which meant that the room was actually occupied or occupied. Her hotel has always been cleaned up after check-out. The current situation only shows one problem, the cleaners are lazy.

This made her a little dissatisfied, not against anyone else, but at her own brother, who in her opinion was really too lax in managing the hotel.

She thought as she leaned back against the bedside, but unfortunately the bedside table on the left was empty, so she shifted her position and walked around the bed to the opposite side. She hurried to the other bedside table, which, strangely enough, was also empty.

She could only admit the fact that the phone in this room was not on the bedside table, but on the table. She was a little helpless, so she held on to the bed again and walked towards the end of the bed.

Gradually, she noticed something unusual, the quilt on the bed seemed to shrink so much that she could fully imagine it rising high.

Something seems to be hidden inside? Could it be that the thief who sneaked in had put the stolen goods here temporarily?

She had a sudden suspicion in her heart, and carefully lifted the quilt and touched it. She quickly touched something, and the cold, delicate touch gave her a sense of déjà vu.

Suddenly, the hairs on her back stood on end, and she suddenly realized what it was - corpses, there was a corpse lying on the bed!

She quickly withdrew her hand, covered her mouth tightly so that she didn't scream, and stumbled out. She was about to shout, but suddenly realized that there was a death in her hotel, and no matter what, she had to make things big and small, and if there were really more people, the blow to her business would be immeasurable.

Of course, she's going to get out of here now.

She soothed her heart, turned and closed the room again, and then walked to another room.

She knocked on the door anyway, and when no one answered, she unscrewed the door and walked in slowly. To say that she is bold, she walked in in the dark and wanted to continue looking for the phone. But the ghost sent her, and she touched the bed again.

The quilt on it was also bulging, she took a deep breath, continued to touch it, and felt a pair of legs that were already stiff. She sleepwalked out, and knocked on the third door. She walked in numbly, but she didn't expect to be empty this time.

As he was startling, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from the hallway. She also had a strong sense of crisis, and when she heard the footsteps, she didn't go out for help as soon as possible, but bent down and quickly got under the bed.

Knock Knock Knock –

The sound of heavy footsteps grew closer, and when it reached the door, it stopped, and went straight into the room. Xun Fang held her breath and didn't dare to move, in the dark, she felt the man sitting on the bed, and then lay on it motionless.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly thought that this resident was finally a living person. Her body and spirit were already stretched to the limit, and when she relaxed, her sleepiness suddenly came up, and she thought of something in a daze, so she couldn't support it, and fell asleep with her hands on her pillow.

When she woke up again, it was finally dawn, and what was even more surprising was that she did not sleep under the bed in some room, but under a table. It was an unfamiliar room, empty inside, with only one corner filled with plaster statues, which seemed to be a studio.

"Did I sleepwalk?" she muttered to herself, but the terrifying memory that seemed to be deep in her mind made her shudder, and she almost ran away from the door towards the elevator. What frightened her was that the elevator was still standing with a wall and turning to the other side, as well.

Reality and memory overlapped, and she thought desperately, could it be that she had encountered some supernatural event? Just as she was in shock, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind her, and she froze for a moment, trying to hide, but found that it was almost behind her.

Xun Fang moved her neck mechanically, turned her head slowly, and saw a person holding something high and looking at her with a hideous face. She finally couldn't hold back the fear in her heart and screamed.

Unexpectedly, the other party was also startled, and almost threw away the things in his hand. But seeing her appearance clearly, the other party was surprised: "Mr. Xun, why are you here?"

This familiar voice suddenly brought her back to her senses, rubbed her eyes and looked at it, and recognized the person, who was actually the hotel cleaner: "Old skin?"

As if grasping at the last straw, she pointed to the wall and said, "Old skin, where do the stairs go?"

？”

Lao Pi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Mr. Xun, you are really a noble person, in order to separate the fourth floor, whether it is the stairs or the elevator, they are all sealed......"
