"Since you have come to the town of J, you are fortunate to be in the country of J, which is known as the land of hot springs, do you want to enjoy the light and soak in the hot springs? This is the best hot spring inn in the whole of Tomaki Prefecture......"

The woman who spoke was Dong Muxiang, gentle and pleasant, fluent in Chinese, and even very polite in her way of speaking.

She has been selling her hotel's features to them... Because she is the only waiter left in this hot spring inn to entertain guests......

"Don't mention the hot springs to me... Last time I fished a boiled float in a hot spring...... Let me have a shadow..."

Shao Kai recalled the scene of picking up Feng Yan's assistant Dongtian at this time... The blurred memories of flesh and blood came to his heart, and his face suddenly turned blue......

"Mr. Hua Ge, what about you?"

was suddenly named and promoted by Dong Muxiang... He hesitated for a moment, smiled and said, "I'm exempt too...... Ms. Higashi Muka...... Chinese I was surprised to speak fluently......"

It really surprised him, although it was said that this "Xiangquan B&B Inn" became the hottest hot spring hotel in Dongmu County because of the rumors of haunting, but because it was too close to the nuclear explosion radiation area, there were not many foreign tourists......

There's no need to learn such a good Chinese for the sake of business, right...... Not to mention that it is a tourist destination that has just opened......

"A few years ago, the little girl was fortunate enough to study in your country, and Chinese was learned at that time... That's why I'm so glad to see you—" she bowed respectfully in answer his doubts.

This made Shao Kai next to him laugh: "Miss Dongmu, how did your teacher teach you to speak Chinese?" Such a restrained way of speaking! My grandfather's generation didn't talk like that......"

The reporter is naturally very sensitive to the way of language, and in Shao Kai, he heard that Dong Muxiang's way of speaking is simply the last century... There is no sense of the times at all, and it is even a little pretentious......

Dong Muxiang was stunned for a moment when he said this, and smiled shyly: "What Mr. Shao Kai said is... I'll try to pay attention... Thank you for your comments..."

The sudden admission of mistakes made Shao Kai a little embarrassed, and he felt that he seemed to be a little suspicious just now, so he smiled awkwardly......

Hua Ge also hurriedly relieved the awkward atmosphere; "Miss Dong Muxiang, I don't know if you saw Mr. Duan Lei who came with us?"

"I saw him and Inspector Saito go to the direction of the bathhouse together, you can go over there and look for it." She stretched out her hand and gestured back to her front desk, busy with her accounts......

"This forensic doctor's psychological tolerance is different, he can still soak in the leisure of the hot spring..."Shao Kai muttered a sentence in his mouth, in exchange for Hua Ge's eyes......

Hua Ge had long been defeated by Shao Kai's straightforward and serious way of speaking...... Maybe this stunned man should really be reminded to talk less......

He knew that for Duan Lei, he didn't want to mention anything related to Feng Yan at all, after all, his father could be described as a "devil......

The two of them went in the direction of the hot springs, not forgetting to check every room along the way.

The location of the mission was the hotel, where all the missing persons disappeared. And this "coincidentally" was the location of the laboratory recorded by Feng Yan.

6 foreign tourists, and 4 local staff... They all disappeared in the night for unknown reasons......

And Inspector Mitsushi Saito was assigned as the main person in charge of the missing persons investigation, and was also responsible for receiving them, as well as arranging their food, clothing, housing and transportation. But he didn't know the true nature of their work.

It is believed that they are staying at this nearby hotel on behalf of the United Nations to investigate the issue of nuclear radiation residues in the area......

At this time, except for a few people related to the disappearance, the inn has been completely locked down from the outside world.

"I just finished inquiring about the news, and you guys came just in time." Duan Lei came out of the hot spring bath and walked out with Saito in neat clothes, not like he had soaked in a hot spring......

"We've also checked it here, and there's nothing unusual ......at all," Duan Lei pointed in the direction of the hot spring bath, and said a few words to Saito, who was back in his room, and walked straight towards them......

Hua Ge looked at Shao Kai beside him and whispered: "Don't just expose other people's shortcomings... Learn more about Duan Lei's work attitude..."

"Cut..."With Hua Ge's lesson, Shao Kai replied with a look of disdain.

The three of them chose the most secluded room of Hua Ge as the place to return for their work.

According to what Duan Lei learned from Saito, at this time, this inn, including them, had 8 guests inside.

Saito also lives here for work, and the other four are all related to the missing person.

There are 18 rooms in total, and the house numbers are arranged in Arabic numerals.

Hua Ge lives in the most secluded room No. 18, Duan Lei lives in No. 17, and Shao Kai lives in room No. 16. Saito lives in room No. 1, which is closest to the lobby.

The other four people, a teacher from country A, his wife was the first person to disappear in this inn, the Blake couple who were originally traveling for their honeymoon, and he was the only one in the empty room of room 5 at this time......

And room 6 lives in a student from country J, Qiaoqiao. She originally came here with her classmates for a tour, but Kim Sulan from country K, who was also an international student, also disappeared.

Chris from country E, a travel enthusiast who lives in room 7, is missing another person he knows as a backpacker, but he can't name the person's real name and country. Chris calls him bro (buddy) is said to have a European face and accent, the rest is unknown......

There is also an otaku from East J City.,Said that he came to catch ghosts with the netizen name "Mr. Hot Dog",At this time, he was muttering in room 9 that the netizen he hadn't seen at all must have been captured by a ghost before he arrived at the inn......

"So these people are here because they're all suspects, or are they connected to a couple of the missing people?" After listening to Duan Lei's introduction, Hua Ge began to analyze the situation here.

"Yes, the main other missing persons have no accompanying persons, they are all alone, and these four people are traveling together..."Duan Lei introduced while cooking ramen, and the three of them had not eaten for a day, and the three of them were already hungry......

"I have a question......?" Shao Kai used his laptop computer to take minutes of the meeting, and interjected and asked: "This place is called Dongmu County, and the Dongmu Xiang at the front desk is also surnamed Dongmu!" We didn't see the owner of this inn either...... Isn't that a little strange? ”

Hua Ge was actually curious about this matter, and also looked at Duan Lei and waited for him to answer.

Duan Lei put three bowls of ramen on the table, broke the chopsticks and said with his hands together: "I'm moving"

While eating, he said, "This place is called a county, and it is supposed to be like a city in our country, but because the land area is so small, there was actually only one town of people here before the nuclear explosion.

At that time, the reason why it was called Dongmu County was also because the people in the county were surnamed Dongmu, which was the same as our Zhangjia Village and Lijia Village......

Later, due to the problem of the radiation area, there were fewer and fewer people living in Dongmu County, and this inn was the land left by Dongmuxiang's ancestors. She can be said to be a native of the Aboriginal ......"

Duan Lei took out a pair of surgical scissors from his bag while introducing, put the scissors into his bowl and cut the ramen a few times: "...... Therefore, she is the heir of this generation of Xiangquan Inn~ She is also the descendant of the disappeared scientist Dongmu Baihuizi mentioned in Feng Yan Sangben's diary......"

Hua Ge and Shao Kai suddenly lost their appetite and put down their chopsticks one after another......

"Why don't you eat it? Am I not making it delicious? It's rare that the B&B has a kitchen..."Duan Lei was puzzled and ate by himself...... raised his eyes and saw the two people staring at his scissors, as if he understood: "I'm sorry, I like to cut it like I eat cold noodles when I eat ramen, do you want to try it?" ”

"Big brother! It's not a question of cold ramen noodles, but the scissors used to open the corpse are used to cut the noodles! Can we eat it? "Shao Kai really convinced him...

"Don't worry, the disinfected ones may be cleaner than your chopsticks!" The forensic doctor's answer gave the person on the other side a dose of crit... Completely lost my appetite...

"Does the vanished people have anything in common and something special?" Hua Ge's question was the last question of the night......

"Yes! The common denominator of the disappeared people is that they disappeared at different times, but there was only one place......" Duan Lei was also full and put down the dishes and chopsticks.

"Where?" He asked...

He replied, "Here... Your room... Room 18 ......"

There was silence in the room at this time, and the other two except the forensic doctor held their breath...... The flying snow outside the window and the sound of the wind at the door all seemed to cater to the terrifying atmosphere at this time......

…… Footsteps were heard outside the door again...... It should be said that it is the sound of clogs...... Da... Da... Da ......
