Chapter 31: The Room of Chaos
Luckily, she took a pair of scissors out of her backpack and cut through the fabric. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When he saw that piece of paper, Liu Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She quickly pulled out the piece of paper and examined its contents, only to see that it read, "I've changed my mind again, I'd better hide the key in the flower pot on the windowsill." ”
This time, Liu Tong was mentally prepared.
Sure enough, the footsteps rang out as loudly as the first two times.
She had a moment of impulse, and she wanted to go to the door to see the owner of the footsteps. But in the end, she gave up.
She had read all the contents of the diary, and until finally she did not know the name and age of the owner of the diary, only that it was a boy. She suddenly wondered if the diary would be useful after finding the key.
She decided, after opening the door, to leave with her diary.
Footsteps slowly walked to the balcony, followed by the sound of shoveling.
It was a long time before the sound stopped.
This time, will you see the key?
Liu Tong stood behind the bedroom door, his face sinking like water.
☆
At this moment, Shi Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan were hiding in a dark room, carefully holding their breath to avoid being detected by the flesh and blood skeleton.
This is the first room on the left side of the staircase on the second floor, the door was originally locked, but Shi Yuan secretly took out the master key he had obtained from Zhou Jianshu and held it in his hand before rushing out of the back door of the restaurant, so he opened the door easily. The master key was obtained in the mission, and Shi Yuan had long thought that it should not be an ordinary item, and sure enough, even the door of a hotel room with double insurance could be opened.
Listening to the footsteps of the flesh skeleton outside the door, both of them were extremely nervous. But in the end, the flesh skeleton found no trace of them, and the footsteps followed away, and the two breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, if you change to any person, it is unlikely that you will choose to enter a room to avoid the skeleton, after all, this is the mission location, and the room is obviously more dangerous than the open staircase and corridor, and you may encounter another ghost as soon as you enter the door. However, Shi Yuan had the ability to perceive, and he had already determined that there was nothing abnormal in this room, so he dared to escape here with Qi Xiuyuan. However, this building has a huge influence, which makes Shi Yuan's perception ability weaken a lot, and the perception range drops sharply, if he forcibly expands the perception range, it will make Shi Yuan feel exhausted and dizzy in an instant.
After the footsteps disappeared, Shi Yuan pressed the light switch next to the door, and suddenly, the light shrouded the entire room.
Shi Yuan looked around and had a general understanding of the layout of the room. They were in the living room, and there was a staircase on the left, and I didn't know where it went. There was a room on the right, the door was closed, and it was impossible to see what it was for.
"Shi Yuan, shall we go in and have a look? Or, go to those seven people? Qi Xiuyuan asked nervously.
"Don't rush out just yet, wait. That thing hadn't gone far yet. Shi Yuan said.
Shi Yuan looked left and right again, thinking to himself, anyway, I have to wait for a while, why don't I check this room, maybe I will find something.
He always cared about the clues on the playing card, where the "land of the dead" was, and he still didn't find the answer.
"Follow me, don't scatter." Shi Yuan whispered as he slowly walked towards the room on the right.
Suddenly, he heard a small voice.
He paused abruptly and listened carefully.
Cha. Cha. Cha.
Very slowly.
What was that?
Shi Yuan's cold sweat flowed down all of a sudden, carefully identifying the direction from which the voice came from.
It's the room on the right.
Is there something in that room?
Shi Yuan expanded the perceptual domain, but did not find any unusual shadows or breaths in the next room.
"There's something weird over there, let's not go over there yet. Let's go upstairs first. Shi Yuan said, turning his head and walking towards the stairs.
This is a duplex room with two floors in itself.
Shi Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan walked on the stairs one after the other. After all, this is a building from 20 years ago, and although it was very luxurious back then, it has long since become dilapidated, and the staircase makes the sound of grinding teeth with every step.
Land of the Dead......
Shi Yuan pondered these four words repeatedly.
Twenty years ago, people in the business world disappeared in an instant, they should be considered dead, right? So is this mission execution location considered a "land of the dead"?
I was thinking about this in my head, but I was vaguely reminded of what I had just experienced.
At the front desk on the first floor just now, Shi Yuan and others checked the check-in records from 20 years ago, and through comparison, they basically determined the identities and time of death of the seven people. Of those, two died in quick succession within two minutes of the start of zero. Is there any implicit message here?
I don't know how long it took for the two to finally walk upstairs, and there were three doors in front of them, all of which were tightly closed. Among them, the room on the left can be clearly seen as a bathroom, and the two on the right are very similar to bedrooms.
Pushing open the door of the rightmost room, Shi Yuan saw a narrow single bedroom. Turning on the light, the sight in front of them made both of them feel very uncomfortable.
The bed sheets and quilts in the hotel were white, but the quilt on the bed in front of me was a large patch of old blood, and the items in the room were also very messy, and a dagger fell to the ground, which was rusty.
"Could it be...... Could it be that there was a homicide here? Qi Xiuyuan covered her mouth with her right hand and said timidly.
"Quite possibly. It seems that at the time of the crime, the killer and the victim suddenly disappeared, otherwise the dagger would not have fallen to the ground. ”
"What kind of person will it be?"
Shi Yuan originally wanted to say that it was not important, but he didn't say it.
Is it really a coincidence that I ran here? Or is there a clue hidden here?
Shi Yuan looked at the messy quilt and felt as if there was a humanoid thing underneath.
If the victim had died before midnight, he or she would certainly not have been considered alive. So, will that person disappear with the rest of the living?
Shi Yuan walked to the side of the bed, grabbed the corner of the quilt, and pulled it to the side.
The quilt was lifted, and the inside was ...... But there was nothing.
Qi Xiuyuan was originally ready to scream, but when she saw it, she was stunned.
Shi Yuan was only slightly stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around and left the bedroom, and walked to the door of the middle room.
It's very neat and looks very normal. But soon, Shi Yuan noticed that there was a lot of hair near the corner of the wall on the right inside. He immediately walked over and looked closely, but found nothing other than that it was long hair.
How can there be so much hair here? Locks of them don't look like they've been cut out, but like they've been torn off.
