Seeing a young woman walking out of the opposite guest room, looking at the woman's dress and looking at the woman's appearance, He Fei instantly confirmed the identity of the other party.

It's none other than the woman who appeared in the video preview earlier, and it is a real person in the real world...... Lan Kerr!

Thinking of this person, a piece of information that I had specially checked because I was concerned about the case came to mind:

Lan Keer, a Chinese-Canadian, a student at the University of British Columbia, disappeared on January 31, 2013, at the Cecil Hotel in Los Angeles, after which the U.S. police released video footage, the video showed that Lan Keer had done a series of incomprehensible strange actions in the elevator a day before his disappearance, which led to further confusion about the incident, but the police emphasized that Lan Keer had no mental problems, and was later confirmed dead, and the body was found on February 19, specifically located in the water tank on the top floor of the hotel, and was only 21 years old when he died. The death of Lan Keer is still an unsolved mystery.

I didn't expect to meet this key person in such a situation!

The mission information has also clearly given a hint, that is, to ensure that Lan Keer does not die within 5 days, each executor can get 3 survival points.

According to conventional logic, it stands to reason that the most important thing He Fei should do after seeing Lan Keer is undoubtedly to immediately contact and immediately approach, and then protect this key person, after all, protecting Lan Keer is a side quest, if the other party can be guaranteed not to die during the period, the executive team can get additional rewards.

The strange thing is that after quickly confirming the identity of the other party, He Fei unexpectedly did not immediately show up and take the initiative to meet him, but instead dodged and hid before the other party found out, pulling Qiao Na to hide on the stairs.

borrowed the cover of the wall, and then hid dozens of meters away to observe secretly.

Ahead.

Da, da, da.

Pushing the door out and walking into the corridor, Lan Keer walked towards the elevator on the right without looking back, obviously, because this is the 11th floor, and she has no idea about the abnormal state of the hotel, no matter where the girl plans to go, she can't choose the stairs, and taking the elevator is a matter of course.

It's just that......

Somehow, after moving not far along the corridor, the girl gradually became unnatural and gradually became aware of it as she walked.

She vaguely felt that there seemed to be something behind her!

Strictly speaking, many people have experienced this feeling in the past, for example, when a person walks alone at night, this kind of feeling often appears, always feeling that there is something behind him, but every time he turns around, there is nothing behind him, which theoretically belongs to the psychological effect, and to put it bluntly, it is actually to scare himself.

Lan Ke'er's current situation is like this, of course, she herself knows that this feeling is very likely to be an illusion in her mind, at first she didn't care too much, but unexpectedly, as the walk continued, as she got closer and closer to the elevator, the feeling of being followed became more and more intense, and her mind further issued a warning:

Turn back, there's something behind you!

Hula.

Following his instinct and relying on instinct, in an instant, Lan Ke'er suddenly stopped and turned back suddenly, just like that, under the warning of his brain, he turned around and looked back without warning.

However, when she turned around, she found nothing, there was nothing in her vision, it was still the silent corridor full of artistic beauty, and she was still the only one in the corridor.

The only strange thing is ......

Looking around for a moment and confirming that everything was normal in the corridor, I thought that the girl would be secretly relieved like ordinary people, but in fact, the girl's heart palpitations were stronger than at first!

(What's going on?) What's wrong with me? ）

As mentioned above, at present, Lan Keer is wrapped in an indescribable sense of crisis, and her mind is inexplicably ingenious, frequently doubting her own feelings, it is true that she is a highly educated college student, and she is still the kind of Western-style education that completely spits on the theory of the gods, but Rao is so, the above experience still prompts her to unconsciously doubt whether there is something wrong with her brain.

(Could it be that I'm too nervous?) ）.

With all kinds of puzzles, Lan Keer stared behind him with a strange expression, staring at the corridor for a while, and her mind kept trying to convince herself, finally, after about half a minute, she shook her head helplessly, and Lan Keer turned around and continued to rush to the elevator.

It is true that many times people tend to scare themselves and then think of it as a psychological effect, but sometimes what you encounter is not necessarily completely psychological.

Dada!

It was too late, and it was fast, just when Lan Ke'er had just turned around and didn't even have time to take a few steps, there was a sound behind him, and a series of sudden and hurried footsteps echoed in an instant, and the corridor echoed straight into his ears, and then successfully startled Lan Ke'er, who had just suspected that he was nervous, and his whole body trembled, and he turned back again.

Perhaps this time she turned back faster and more urgently than the first time, and as her vision shifted hastily, she vaguely saw a picture, an uncertain scene that was extremely terrifying but also very dazzling.

To put it simply, it can be understood that the moment he turned back, the pupil inadvertently captured a fleeting scene:

Behind him, 10 meters away, a woman in a red coat turned around like lightning and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Yes, in a blink of an eye, the other person just turned around at the same time, and then disappeared without a trace, out of thin air, and the whole process was extremely fast, fast enough to make one think that he was dazzled.

said that this is the case, and the reality is also the same, after seeing the unreal scene, Lan Keer subconsciously took a few steps back, but did not scream and did not run away, retreating as a reflection of fear, as for why not run? The reason is very simple, there is only one reason, and that is fast, too fast! It was so fast that the picture only stayed in his line of sight for a fraction of a second, and his pupils only captured a trace of afterimage, which can naturally be explained by dazzling eyes.

Faced with the uncertain result, Lan Keer was confused.

Although she personally thinks that she is dazzled, her brain subconsciously reminds her of one sentence from beginning to end:

Don't be in a daze, don't be in a daze, run! There is danger, and your danger comes from behind!!

The body shook abruptly like an electric shock, cold sweat covered her forehead like a gust of wind, and under the urging of the warnings one after another, gradually, Lan Ke'er was really scared, and in addition to being afraid, she completely chose to believe the subconscious warning, and the next moment, the woman was vivid, turned around and strode towards the elevator.

In fact, the purpose of her coming out of the room is very simple, just to go to the restaurant on the first floor for a supper, as I heard before staying in the hotel, Cecil Hotel does not provide food delivery service at night, and guests can only rush to the restaurant on the first floor in person if they want to eat supper, and it is precisely because of this that Lan Keer will come out at night, thinking that going out to eat is just a trivial matter, but after going out, strange changes have happened one after another!

It is true that she also had the idea of giving up eating and going home at the beginning, but unfortunately she is a girl after all, a girl who is not very courageous, when she thinks of what seems to be hidden on the floor, Lan Keer is afraid, and she doesn't dare to go back anyway, or at this moment, she is now extremely afraid of the entire floor, which further prompts her to be full of fear of the corridor she is in, yes, she has no courage to go back, so she can only move forward, continue to rush to the elevator, and rush to the first floor as quickly as possible, until he completely escaped from this strange corridor that brought endless panic to himself.

Lonely, silent, silent, and fearful in her heart constantly stimulates her, causing her to desperately want to blend in with the crowd, desperate to get rid of loneliness, and only in this way can she be given some psychological comfort, even if the restaurant on the first floor is destined to have no customers at night, but anyway, there should always be staff, right?

As long as you have someone to accompany you, as long as you are not alone!.

So, with all kinds of uneasiness, Lan Keer successfully reached the target and ran to the elevator door.

Immediately press the button without hesitation.

Bite.

After a while, with a crisp sound, the metal door slowly opened, and Lan Keer rushed into the elevator with an arrow, then bent down and pressed the floor button to the first floor.

But, oddly enough......

Inside the elevator.

After a long time, after a long wait, ahead, the elevator door is still open, still not closed.

(Huh?) What's going on? ）

Seeing this scene, Lan Ke'er panicked, and the sense of terror that was already enveloping her body suddenly intensified at this moment, and it suddenly increased!

(Why?) Why doesn't the elevator door close when I press the button!? ）

Oppressed by unattainable fear, now completely eroded by fear, she no longer plans to go to the first floor as originally planned, now she just wants to leave, desperately wants to leave, leave the floor, leave this 11th floor corridor that makes her shudder!

………

(No, it won't, it can't be!) ）

Seeing that the elevator door was not closed for a long time, Lan Keer panicked, and hurriedly raised her hand to press the button again, pressing the button on the 2nd floor, yes, in her opinion, even if the button on the 1st floor failed, it didn't matter if she couldn't reach the 1st floor, as long as she could reach the 2nd floor, she would be able to reach the 1st floor by taking the stairs at that time.

The idea is always so beautiful, but the reality is always so cruel.

The finger pressed hard, and the door did not respond.

The button on the second floor is also out of order!

Seeing this, she looked at the empty corridor outside the door again, Lan Ke'er became more and more panicked, and her heart beat violently, as if something would chase after her outside if the door was not closed quickly!

(No, don't, don't!) ）

Bang bang, bang bang.

Between her thoughts, the girl was agitated, and she kept pressing the buttons one after another like crazy, pressing everything, almost all the buttons on all floors, as mentioned above, as long as she could leave the 11th floor, which scared her, it didn't matter where she went!

Unfortunately, in the end, the elevator is still the same, and the door is still not closed.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and at the same time, when the girl was in the elevator and almost went crazy......

Dada!

Suddenly, there was a sound outside the door, and there was a sound not far away, and a series of hurried footsteps appeared again, and the sound was very familiar, exactly the same as what I had heard when I was in the hallway!

Groov!

As the footsteps appeared again, in the elevator, Lan Keer's body shook and his heart hung high, he hurriedly turned around, looked out of the door, looked at the corridor, and began to move while staring at the corridor, slowly moving towards the elevator entrance, and finally suddenly leaned out of his upper body at the moment he walked to the edge of the elevator, and then turned his head to look out left and right, and quickly retracted the elevator after two seconds, as if he was cautious.

As a result, there is everything.

The probe just now didn't see anything outside the elevator, the footsteps disappeared, and the corridor was still normal, still dead silent, but, at the same time, unconsciously, the terrifying picture that I had seen in the corridor earlier came to mind coldly:

A woman in red appears in the uncertain picture, which is suspiciously dazzling.

The other party is fleeting, turning around and disappearing.

Thinking of this, for a while, negative emotions such as fear, fear, and nervousness swept through the girl's body.

As the saying goes, if you don't see the Yellow River, you don't give up, and you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, indeed, she is very scared at the moment, afraid that 'that thing' will rush into the elevator, but Lan Keer is still more or less lucky, and then she has the luck that the other party has not found out for the time being, and her heart began to move, while holding back her fear, she quietly walked to the dead corner of the elevator and curled up, obviously, because the elevator door could not be closed, the girl chose to dodge.

Time, second by second, atmosphere, a little depressing.

After about ten seconds, somehow, a sudden self-inquiry came to my brain.

(What's wrong with me?) Why are you so scared? Shouldn't it? Am I scared like this by the thoughts in my head? In fact, there was nothing from beginning to end, no danger happened, and I was still alive and well? The sound of footsteps and the flashing figure in red should also be an illusion, from my personal subconscious panic, well, that's pretty much it, it must be due to the recent too much stress caused by too much attention to the exam papers, and the elevator is just a failure, there will be no danger at all, after all, this is a hotel, and it is not a wilderness...... ）

(Don't be afraid, there's no need to be afraid, I've been scaring myself, it's okay, it's going to be okay.) ）

Not to mention, through some self-comfort, it didn't take long for Lan Keer's mood to gradually calm down, and the tension that was originally all over her face was eased a lot, in order to further confirm that her personal thoughts were correct, next, she was hiding in a dead corner and moved again, tiptoed to the door, and finally had the courage to get out of the elevator and enter the corridor.

The strange thing is that as soon as Lan Keer got out of the elevator and just arrived at the door, dizziness hit, and the girl suddenly felt a dizziness in her brain!

It feels very strange, as if taking an overdose of drugs in one breath causes its brain to be in a trance, and in a trance, I don't know if it's an illusion, I hear a murmur in my ears, and I hear a noisy noise all around.

Well?

Patting his head and suddenly coming back to his senses, he stared again, only to realize that his surroundings were crowded with people at some point!

Looking around, I saw that the entire corridor was crowded, very noisy, and there were men, women, old and young in the crowd, crowded the corridor from far to near, and for a while, Lan Keer found himself in the crowd.

Out of instinct, I don't care where the crowd comes from, the girl began to move, began to dodge, left and right to avoid the crowd, and after a while, Xu really couldn't stand such crowding and noisy, the woman was vivid, stretched out her hands while playing with the crowd while walking towards the elevator, and finally returned to the elevator, because the experience was too real, after returning to the elevator, the girl still didn't think much about it, and hurriedly walked to the button and leaned over again to beat frequently.

Yes, because the corridor was too crowded, in a hurry, Lan Keer was forced to return to the elevator, but having said that, she still noticed a phenomenon, that is...... Don't look at the number of people outside but no one has entered the elevator from beginning to end, in order to get out of this place as soon as possible, the second time the girl in a trance came up with the idea of leaving, because she was too panicked, this time the press was not pressed one by one but several groups of number keys together to beat, the result can be imagined, not to mention that the elevator is likely to malfunction with this kind of operation, even if there is no fault it is impossible to operate normally.

During the frequent beating, the elevator door was still not closed, but Rao is elevator failure Rao is beating was invalid, for Lan Keer at this moment, she had completely ignored it, and she didn't pay attention to the elevator at all, because it was ......

Something happened during this time, or she could say that she had accidentally seen something and found something.

It was precisely this discovery that directly caused Lan Keer's movements to freeze and his eyes to condense.

Just now, when I was slapping the button, I accidentally saw a person out of the corner of my eye, and I saw that outside the elevator door, there was a person in the crowd who was exactly like himself!

The same dress, the same costume, and even the appearance is almost the same!

Lan Ke'er was stunned.

In a daze, in order to confirm that she was not dazzled, the girl gave up the elevator and involuntarily returned to the corridor.

Then, she, was confirmed.

As she pushed the crowd out of the elevator, she saw that there was indeed a person standing a meter in front of her, a woman who was exactly the same as herself in appearance and clothing, and what was even more strange was that if Lan Keer was looking at each other blankly because of curiosity and surprise, on the other side, another 'Lan Keer' was also staring at herself silently with a similar expression.

(Who is she?) Is she me? ）

His thoughts were confused, his mind was confused, and at this moment when he couldn't tell who was really himself, Lan Ke'er had a certain feeling that there should be a mirror in front of him.

Yes, if it weren't for the mirror, how could the person on the other side have the same expression or even the same movement as himself?

In order to confirm whether the reality of the situation is in line with the brain's thoughts, then, prompted by the intensifying curiosity, Lan Keer reached out and made a series of tentative movements, just like this, poking her head while waving her hand aimlessly, yes, these actions she did were completely meaningless, and in the eyes of others, it was extremely weird, as if a psychopath suddenly became ill and difficult to understand the meaning, it was described as so, and it was actually the case, in fact, she was indeed waving her hands one after another like a psychopath and continuing to shake, Even the knuckles of the fingers are opening and closing frequently as the arm shakes.

The graphics are weird and difficult to understand, and the action is extremely weird.

Only Lan Keer herself knew what she was doing, she was tempting, testing whether there was a mirror in front of her, but unfortunately, Lan Keer was disappointed.

No matter what the action is, no matter what the expression is, the other side, there is no reaction at all.

The woman, who was exactly like herself, did not make a similar gesture as hoped, but was silent, silent, and just stared at her with a pair of cold eyes!

A second later.

It's like a camera switch, like a picture shift.

Suddenly, Lan Ke'er found that the noise had disappeared, the crowd was gone, and the crowd that had been crowded around disappeared out of thin air, and disappeared again abruptly as it had suddenly appeared.

There is no reason, there is no reason, if you look closely, you can further find that even the elevator on your side is gone!

No, no, there are exceptions, not everything has disappeared, not the nearby scene has disappeared completely, opposite, a few meters away, another 'Lan Keer' has not disappeared, still standing motionless in front of him.

Witnessing such a scene and looking around at such a picture, Lan Keer was stunned, completely stunned, and fell into a stupor in the endless many changes.

Of course, the sluggishness didn't last long, as time passed, as the scene returned to silence, after a while, Lan Ke'er regained her fear, returned to panic, in addition to the fear that had disappeared for a long time returned to her body, it is unimaginable that loneliness also spread.

(What's going on?) What the hell is going on? What just happened? Where am I at the moment? And also...... ）

(Who is that 'self'?) ）

Tears unconsciously welled up in his eyes, dripping across his face and dripping to the ground.

At a loss, Lan Keer vaguely noticed that time passed very slowly, and it felt more real, and the evidence came from the other side, another 'Lan Keer' moved, and finally made a move after freezing for a long time, but the action was slow, surprisingly slow, as if he was watching a movie that had been slowed down several times, of course, slow to slow, strictly speaking, the 'Lan Keer' action was very simple, just raised his arm, climbed up a little bit, and finally, after nearly 1 minute of long waiting, the opposite side' Lan Ke'er completely raised his arm and completely stopped the movement.

Then, while staring at Lan Ke'er, he pointed to the back of the girl.

Guided by the guidance, Lan Ke'er hurriedly turned around, and was immediately surprised to find that there was no longer corridor 11 behind him, but a narrow passage, a link passage connecting the restaurant on the first floor!

Through the passage, she clearly saw the restaurant, clearly saw the crowd, almost every table was full of guests sitting in front of the table eating and talking, and some waiters were also shuttling through it with various drinks, like a warm and peaceful scene.

(Saved, saved!) ）

Seeing this, Lan Keer was overjoyed.

You must know that whether it was before or now, under the pressure of fear, what girls want to do most is to leave, and they desperately want to go to crowded places, sure enough, with the help of the passage, witnessing the scene in front of them, seeing that the restaurant is close at hand, under the joy, how dare Lan Keer slack? He didn't care about thanking the other 'Lan Keer', so he turned around and ran without hesitation, running straight towards the passage and running straight towards the restaurant.

It's just that, running and running, strange phenomena happen......

As she ran, she gradually felt that her speed had decreased.

At first, he was obviously running at a fast pace, but his speed changed as he ran, and in the end, he was a few points slower than walking slowly, as if it was very slow and indescribably slow as the 'Lan Keer' raised his hand just now.

(Keep it up, be sure to keep it!) I'm going to get to the restaurant anyway, it's safe there, it's only there, it's safe there! Even if it's slow, I'm going to pass! ）

In order to arrive at the restaurant as soon as possible to get rid of the danger, Lan Ke'er gave up thinking, no longer paid attention to the abnormalities around her, and continued to walk around under the insistence of her heart, clenching her teeth, and slowly approaching the restaurant little by little......
