132. The Witch's Room
Later in the evening, the two had some fast food on the island.
Towards evening, several small boats came ashore, coming from Siney, and a few sailors came down to beckon the people to evacuate.
Watching the equipment be loaded onto the ship, it really smelled of a catastrophe, and they were deeply impressed by the storm.
Emperor Wu went to the beach to check on the Flamingo, and the originally lively small dock was now left with it floating alone there.
If there is a real storm tonight, it will definitely be flooded.
Emperor Wu asked the dock staff to tow the Flamingo to the center of the island by trailer, close to the Hashway Hotel, which is the safest, and in case of any accidents, they also have a way out, at least the cabin is well sealed to isolate the entry of seawater, which is the masterpiece of yacht designer Andy.
Near the beach, I met Leonard, the manager of Solan Island, who was in his mid-forties with thick body hair and had a lot of experience in dealing with storms. Evacuation of tourists who do not stay overnight is being directed.
Solan Island is 145 nautical miles from mainland Australia, and according to Leonard's description, tonight's storm will only occur in the Pacific Ocean, leaving only a sparse light rain when the storm arrives at Siney Beach.
"Young man, I admire your courage, considering that last year on this day, there were only nine people left on this island. Leonard said calmly.
"Including the waiters at the Hashway Hotel?" Wu Di asked.
At the mention of him, Leonard put his hands on his waist and said with a smile: "That's right, that guy is very bold, and he will sleep as peacefully as a pig in no matter how big the storm is." ”
Emperor Wu told him about the old witch lady, and Leonard's relaxed expression suddenly became agitated, obviously, the appearance of the old black lady made him think it was a bad omen.
"I'm going to call Buck. Leonard shook his head.
Despite the countless storms he has faced, he is a big believer in the science of nature, but he is still somewhat superstitious, and he does not want any bad signs.
Buck was napping and got a call from Leonard and told him about the old black lady.
As a manager, he has the right to know all the information about Solan Island.
The 67-year-old witch from the Caribbean island of Haiti was staying at the Hashway Hotel for the first time and carried a black knitted bag the size of a suitcase.
"Did you double-check that black bag?" asked Leonard.
"No, Mr. Leonard, we have no right to do that. ”
Leonard's expression became more and more ugly, he walked a few steps in place, and suddenly said to Emperor Wu: "Young man, I need your help, we must know what is in that bag!"
Haiti is a small country in turmoil, with frequent tsunamis and earthquakes, as well as a mysterious voodoo religion, also known as voodoo.
"Voodoo" means soul in Fang, and the most famous and terrifying feature of this kind of church is zombies, called soul corpses. can resurrect the dead and obey the instructions of the wizard, which is a bit similar to driving corpses in Xiangxi in China.
It's easy to understand the "voodoo" that Sybil keeps muttering about at the elevator entrance, and it seems that she is a veteran believer.
When they returned to the hotel, they found the old lady standing in the hallway, like a ball of shriveled firewood, but her eyes were not as listless as her body.
"Hello ma'am, I'm the manager of the island and need to check your room now. Leonard said warily.
Hearing the voice, the old lady turned around slowly, her eyes were uncomfortable, and she was holding a black rag doll in her hand.
"Ma'am, please cooperate with my work. Leonard said again.
Emperor Wu subconsciously hugged Kaibi tightly, he felt that the old lady would suddenly turn into a monster and pounce on them to bite them.
In fact, Emperor Wu guessed half right, and the old lady suddenly pounced on Leonard, but she didn't turn into a monster.
It seemed that she wanted to pull Leonard's hair, and the old lady could not get close to him despite all her might.
"Damn it, let me go!" said the old lady at last.
Buck, the waiter, saw what was going on through the surveillance, and he walked up unhurriedly with the room key, which he thought was just an ordinary tenant.
"I think there's a misunderstanding, Ms. Sybil. Buck hugged the old lady in a friendly way.
Hearing the name Sybil, Cabi's heart was a little lighter, because the prophetic teacher in "Harry Potter" was called Sybil, and the witch and the prophet were half of the same company.
On the way to Sybil's room, Emperor Wu whispered to Buck, "You are so bold that you actually hugged her." ”
Buck looked calm, "Dude, to be honest, there is no witchcraft in this world at all, it is written by those damn writers to scare people. In a moment you will see that Sybil's room is just like yours. ”
Buck yawned as he spoke, he just wanted to end the farce as soon as possible so that he could go back to the front desk and doze off, he didn't care about the storm, the sturdy hotel could only be destroyed by a nuclear bomb.
In front of the door of room 3025, Sybil did not open the door directly, but took out a handful of lime-like white powder from the pocket of his underwear and poured it at the door, drew a line, and then spoke loudly.
When he was done, he handed Leonard the key and didn't say a word the whole time.
Leonard pulled out his pistol and prepared to open the door.
Buck laughed, "Mr. Leonard, a pistol is not a sign of friendship, you are just too serious, or Rosalia would not refuse to date you." ”
Leonard glared at him, "That's because Rosalia is a lesbian!"
Emperor Wu stood in the back and half-hugged Kaibi, the two of them just looked at them and chatted awkwardly, and there was an angry old lady next to him.
The door opened, and Leonard vigilantly held his pistol to his chest and slowly pushed it open.
The sight inside amazes everyone, including Buck, the waiter who packs the ticket for Sybil.
If there is a Hashway Hotel Renovation Competition, there is no doubt that Sybil will be the champion.
She transformed the luxurious and bright room into a witch laboratory. The curtains were closed, and it was pitch black, and through the hallway light they could see strips of rags on the floor.
Turning on the indoor lights, everyone was startled, there were five rag dolls with hideous faces on the hangers, a few thin white clothes neatly folded on the bed, some charm-like things hung all over the walls, and wax and straw.
Sybil let out a few sneers and made her feel comfortable back in her room.
Leonard suddenly noticed a streak of blood on the ground and immediately pointed a gun at her head.
"Damn it, don't point it at me, or you're going to die!" Sybil said in a high-pitched, creepy voice.
"Blood coming out of that bag. Emperor Wu pointed to the black bag and said, he boldly walked to the corner of the south wall, and gently kicked the bag, and the touch transmitted back was very similar to kicking a person's body.
"Emperor Wu!" Kaibi shouted worriedly.
Emperor Wu turned his head and smiled and made an OK gesture towards Kaibi.
Damn, is this old lady a murderer, using human organs to do it?
He unzipped it, and a rancid smell instantly spread throughout the room, including a broken bull's head.
"This is?" Emperor Wu asked, without taking it out, opening the bag open.
"Don't pollute the sacrifice of Voodoo with your blood-stained hands!" Sybil suddenly rushed over and pushed Emperor Wu away, kneeling in front of the rotten bull's head as if in repentance.
This makes it difficult for Leonard because Sybil hasn't broken anything, and if anything, she's not very friendly to people.
Buck eased his embarrassment, "Well, man, I'll just say there's nothing wrong here, Goodnight Miss Sybil." ”
With that, Buck went downstairs.
