However, unlike the security door on the top floor, the hotel's water tank is still locked, after all, it is related to the water of the entire hotel, and it is impossible to let people visit it casually. So Wei and I went back to the room to get some things, and when we came back, we began to figure out how to deal with the lock.

In order to wrap the barrel of his Type 92 gun with a pillow as a silencer, and to prevent the bullet from splashing and hurting ourselves, he fired a shot from the bottom up against the lock. "Teng..."It's impossible to be completely silent, but in the heart of the city, such a small sound will not attract any attention. I climbed up the ladder to the top of the tank, lifted the lid, turned on the flashlight and took a look inside. This tank is not small, the length is about 5 meters, the width is about 2 meters, the height is about 3 meters, the water surface inside is about 1 meter from the top of the tank, and the water depth is about 2 meters.

"I can't see anything. I muttered. At this time, Liu Weixian put away the gun, climbed up as well, and asked, "Did you find anything?" and "I have to go down." I glanced at him, "You just wait up here, I may need your help to come up." "Lao Su, this is the hotel's domestic water, you didn't take a bath last night." Liu Weixian squinted his eyes and said, "And there was just someone dead inside..."

"It's fine. "I took off my coat and shoes, bit the flashlight with my mouth, pressed the top of the box and slowly fell into the water. Although the winter in Los Angeles is not very cold, the water in the tank is still a little cool this morning, about 10 degrees. I let my legs soak in the water for a while, and after feeling the temperature, my hands relaxed, and the whole person fell into the water.

The cold temperature of the water cleared my mind instantly. The water was about as deep as I had estimated, and it would be above my head. I've always been good at water, and I quickly kicked the water to the surface, and I took the flashlight from my mouth with my free hand.

I searched the inside of the tank, diving down to the bottom several times, but found nothing. "Isn't there any clue," I thought, "why did the deceased die in that position?" I adjusted my posture to stop kicking the water and control my head and feet sinking into the water. Suddenly, through the water, in the afterglow of the flashlight, I saw a symbol the size of a football on the top of the box, and I was about to float up to take a closer look, when I suddenly realized that I couldn't move.

The water around me seemed to suddenly become tangible, imprisoning me, and no matter how much I struggled, I couldn't make a splash. I didn't think about how long I was going to sink, so I didn't hold my breath deliberately, and after nearly 30 seconds, the oxygen in my lungs had begun to run out, and I couldn't help but want to inhale in the water.

Although I remained calm and didn't panic and breathe directly in the water causing the water to pour into my lungs and die faster, I still couldn't think of a way to get myself out. At this moment, a thunderclap sounded, which made my head dizzy, but the pressure on my body was also light. I immediately surfaced and took a big breath.

"Lao Su, are you okay?" Liu Weixian said with concern outside the water tank, "Just now when you were in the water, a black shadow suddenly appeared on the top of the tank and wrapped you, and then you stopped moving." "And then you shoot him, her, or it!" I grinned, "first of all, I thank you for saving my life, and secondly, I thank you for being deep enough that the bullets didn't splash and hurt my ears." "Fortunately, the lid of the box is open, otherwise the sound energy in the closed water tank will not be transmitted, and I am afraid that I will be deaf again."

I knew that this gunshot was enough to attract onlookers, so I immediately shone a flashlight on the top of the box and wrote down the pattern. This pattern is about the size of a football ball, and the style is somewhat similar to the Toyota logo, but the Toyota logo is composed of two rings, and this pattern is composed of three rings, which are connected at 60 degrees to each other. After that, I climbed out of the tank with the help of the first, and the two of us picked up our things and quickly escaped from the crime area. Luckily, the room was right next to the safety ladder and we heard the elevator as soon as we closed the door.

"It should be fine for a while. I took off my wet underwear and shivered a little from the cold, so I had to leave Liu Weixian and take a hot shower by myself. When I came out and changed my clothes, I found that the child had fallen asleep in bed. I thought about it and didn't wake him up, and in order to prevent him from waking up and not being able to find me, I left him a note and went out.

During this time, I was going to ask the living and dead people in the hotel. I'll go back to the top floor first and see how it will be lively. At this time, there were quite a lot of people on the top floor, and there were also several policemen who were collecting evidence on the water tank again. I estimate that all kinds of supernatural news will make headlines at noon today: Shocked! Shooting marks suddenly appeared in the water tank where the corpse was found!

Although the crowd around me has been chattering, I haven't found any useful information after listening for a while, and most of them are or simply give their own judgments irresponsibly. "I'll tell you, this must be the murderer of the previous case who came back to destroy the evidence, and as a result, he bumped into the ghost of the deceased, and he was so frightened that he shot to defend himself, but he was still dragged by the ghost to another dimension. "So I thought it would be a waste of time to stay any longer, so I just walked away.

I went up the safety staircase back to the 14th floor, where I ran into the black female ghost staring at me from the ceiling, "Can you speak? "I feel like I'm going to lose my basic awe of ghosts if I stay in this hotel any longer. The female ghost seems to be a little... Afraid of me, when she saw me asking her, she ran away as fast as she could. I'm helpless, I don't look scary to be reasonable, even if I don't have a girl, why don't I even see a female ghost?

I made my way to the lobby, and the headless ghost was still looking for something. I thought about how difficult it would be to communicate with someone who had no ears or tongue, and the risk that I might be mistaken for a nervous disorder by a normal person, so I resolutely chose the front desk lady.

I waited patiently for the two white ladies to finish the front desk with a bunch of customers, mostly checking out, before I walked up to talk to them. "How can I help you, sir?" asked the young lady, with a professional smile on her face. "Let me introduce myself first, Su Ling, the detective, was entrusted with trying to find out a case that happened here. I pulled out a business card and handed it to her. "Ha, sir, I wonder our hotel needs you to visit often. Another young lady glanced at the business card and said half-jokingly.

"Don't mind?" I asked, pulling out a cigarette. "Please," the young lady pulled out an ashtray and placed it on the bar. "I'm here to investigate Lin Man's case. Rest assured, I am not a writer of newspapers and magazines, I am entrusted by her family to carry out the work. Now I want to hear you tell me about her. As I spoke, I stuffed each of the ladies with a large denomination of dollars.

It may be that I have been polite and impressed by them, or it may be that there is no work at this time and they are idle, and it is more likely that the dollar has played its due role, in short, the three of us have been chatting for most of the morning, and I know whether it is useful or useless. I didn't say goodbye until lunchtime, when another round of check-outs came, and a young lady hinted that I could have further communication.

"The young lady of the United States is unrestrained. I smiled and shook my head, "It's a pity that I've been guarding myself like a jade for more than 20 years, and I shouldn't have broken my Tongzigong here." "I went to the Chinese restaurant to pack some food, took the elevator back to the 14th floor, and when I returned to my room, I found that I had already woken up.

"Yo, I really didn't expect that. I put the food on the table, "I thought the one thing you got up was crying dad and calling my mother to find my brother." "Hmph, although it doesn't seem that there is much room for Uncle Ben to play in this trial. Liu Weixian rolled his eyes at me and said, "But at least I can't make a mess." ”
