Chapter 14: The Unfortunate Woman

Mu Tianyu was silent, and after listening to this story, he turned his attention to the brown paper diary at the front desk. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Didn't the police find out at the time? I mean this book. He gestured to the journal. The scene of the crime should be cordoned off until the investigation is completed. ”

"That's true, as the investigating police cars parked outside the door one by one, the hotel immediately attracted criticism, and some travelers checked out because of this, and I went back downstairs."

"But why is this diary still here?" Mu Tianyu picked it up and weighed it. "It stands to reason that it should be kept in the police evidence room." They would never leave any clues behind, and if they opened the diary and read it, they should not leave it, Mu Tianyu speculated, and asked, "Do you know about this?" The police did not take his diary. ”

Seeing Mu Tianyu holding the diary in his hand again, the old man looked more worried, shook his head and said: "I didn't know at first, they didn't mention anything until they left after investigating the clues, I guess that the diary must have been taken away." Since that incident, my business has been miserable, and I haven't seen a single guest for weeks, so I want to close my business. He stepped out of the front desk and pushed open the door, letting in a ray of sunlight that reflected their sparse laziness. It took about a month for my business to improve, and it continued one after another, and it was back to normal. You don't know, but for me, it's a wake-up from a nightmare, a rebirth from despair. ”

The old man motioned to go outside to bathe in the warm morning sun, and took out a box of cigarettes from his bag, this brand has never been seen for Mu Tianyu. "Do you smoke?" He handed one over.

Mu Tianyu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I have learned it before, but I can't learn it, and I will always be choked inexplicably." ”

"Yes, smoking is a kind of science." He raised a cigarette in his hand in a good manner, looked at it carefully, and said softly: "Some people are addicted to it when they touch it, and there are also people who are naturally rejected by nature, and it seems that you belong to the latter." As soon as he lit it, he immediately signaled that the other party did not smoke, and it must be repulsive, so he extinguished it again, and then pointed to the side of the street. That's where the dead cat was still there. ”

The old man leaned against the window of the hotel, then took a deep breath and continued to state his memories of the past.

[It's been about two months since the incident, and the reason why I remember it clearly is because winter is about to fall. On late autumn nights, the humidity is heavy, and the grass in the valley is all soaked, so that the whole town is filled with a strong fishy smell. It was about nine o'clock in the evening, and I was just about to close the door of the passage, when I saw a woman of about thirty years old coming down from the entrance of the hallway, and she was walking straight to the front desk.

Facing the faint light of the antechamber, her graceful curves are even more charming, which does not prove that I am frivolous, and I have no rude behavior or dirty thoughts towards her.

Not only is she beautiful, her voice delicate and soft, but she is even very polite. "I'm sorry to disturb me, sir, I want to ask, what's wrong with the resident next to me? I always hear some weird voices. ”

I stared into her puzzled gaze, and then remembered that a woman had come to check in this morning with a suitcase, and she was an out-of-tlander and was visiting the town for the first time. When she registered, she told me that she was looking for a secluded place to vacation, preferably with a view of the snow.

"Oh, I'm sorry, what's going on?" I asked as usual, but I smiled helplessly in my heart, it must be a couple or a couple's sexual affairs, and I couldn't suppress my physical emotions.

The woman shook her head. "I don't know, it came and went, and it was a strange sound, like the low roar of a wild animal. I thought he needed help, so I took the liberty of knocking on his room, but no one inside responded, and I was a little worried. ”

"Oh, he'd be glad to have a neighbor like you." As I spoke, I grabbed the check-in book. "What is his room number, I'll check."

"Number 314."

"Trinity......" I repeated, stuck in my throat, and looked at her in amazement. Oh my God, because I was renovating the house on the second floor recently, and seeing that she was an outsider, I must not know what had happened here in the past, so I opened room 313 for her.

"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong? Is something really happening? She was suddenly nervous more nervous than me, and her slender body was trembling.

"No, no." I immediately denied it, "It's okay, you don't have to be nervous," and then I asked with pretended calm curiosity, "Did you really hear any movement next to you?" Not room 312? ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, then nodded hurriedly, "Yes, I swear, it's not wrong, it's room 314, there is really movement in there." ”

"Oh, maybe a small animal sneaked in at night, and now it's like winter outside, they must be frozen, it's okay, room 314, there are no guests today. I'll change a room for you, it's quiet even though it's close to the entrance of the stairs. "Then I gave her a key to room 302.

Watching her distant back disappear completely into the stairwell, I couldn't hold back my panic anymore and sat down. Room 314, the room where murder once happened, the murder house! I've already emptied everything in it, and there's no way that room can be inhabited anymore. I thought I had already seen this thing a long time ago, but at this moment, I seemed to see that face again, that pair of hideous eyes, that bloody face.

That night, I couldn't sleep all night, was that a sign of what was going to happen? More than once I had the idea of getting up and going to that horrible room to find out. But even though I was courageous, I was always just moving my thoughts, but I still lay in bed, and with trepidation, I finally closed my eyes in the moment when I was depressed.

The next day, I was still restless, and although I was busy with what I was doing, I was always getting things wrong, breaking teacups, knocking over buckets, and even turning the candle shade upside down. After all, this candle lamp has an indelible shadow on my childhood, and I will never make a mistake again, however, I am still mistaken.

In the moment of my depression, I finally saw that beautiful and charming face, more seductive than the night one. The woman dragged her suitcase down from the entrance of the stairs, a few meters away, and she smiled at me: "Thank you so much, I had a good dream last night." ”

I saw that she was fine, and the sinking stone hanging in my heart finally fell, and I sighed with a long breath and smiled: "Welcome to your next stay." Then, I checked out for her class and asked, "Isn't it appropriate to vacation here?" Still not used to living. ”

The woman smiled slightly, she lowered her head and raised it again, and the corners of her mouth were raised, looking extremely happy, very happy. She said to me, "My boyfriend has finally proposed to me, so, I'm going where I need to go." ”

"Wow...... Well, that's really congratulations, my hotel will be stained with your festivities, if you come here on your honeymoon, I will definitely give you half of it! All this lingering bad luck vanished with this joy.

"It's a good proposition, and since you're getting married, you have to choose a romantic honeymoon place." She opened the door of the hotel with joy, looked at the quiet valley in the distance, and sighed: "This place is a good place with pleasant scenery and moderate climate." She nodded and smiled at me, waved goodbye, and then said something more. The diary in the room, although the content is weird and terrifying, but I am also interested in horror books, and the stories in it are really wonderful. ”

Diary? What diary? Her words didn't immediately make me think of anything, and when I tried to ask again, her back had already crossed the opposite corner. Then I went to tidy up my room, and sure enough, I saw what she called the diary, a brown paper diary on the bedside table. This familiar image was instantly reduced to my brain, and this is no joke, at that time, I was in room 314, and the diary I saw was exactly the same as it! I swear they're definitely the same one.

"Oh,!" I sighed, my nerves tensed again, and my mind became heavy again, but at the same time, a curiosity came over me, and I paced forward, step by step, without making any sound from the soles of my feet. Staring at the yellowed cover, like an ancient seal, those fine lines are the spell that has been torn open. This absurd speculation, I learned from horror movies, everything that seems to give people a sense of foreboding, can be described in this way. I stopped beside my bed, and suddenly, I felt the world fall silent, so quiet that all I could do was my restless heartbeat, and when I turned my head to look out the window, at the cars passing on the street, I couldn't hear their horns at all. Then, I held out my hand.

Rumble......

Suddenly, just as my finger was about to touch the diary, a roar from outside the window carried a strong air current into my mind. I shuddered, and almost collapsed on my side at the head of the bed, looking as if there had been an explosion in the bright red neighborhood, and standing in the window of 302, I could still see the flickering flames. Then I saw the people on the streets pouring into the disaster area, whether they were curious or worried.

I didn't care about any diary, I forgot it in an instant, and I was one of the curious people, so I joined the trip. I was accompanied by a few other travelers along the way out of the hotel, and they were also curious about what was going on there. It should have been a car accident and there was an explosion in the fuel tank? Only in this way will there be such a big movement.

It was much more than I had imagined, and a block away, I smelled a strong smell of oil, a smell mixed with the gloomy sky, and I immediately thought of the car gas station at the corner of Bright Red Street. Oh my God, could it be a fire explosion at a gas station! It was unimaginable, but there were no residential buildings near the street, and my panic was relieved.

When I arrived at Bright Red Street, more than 200 meters away, I saw a raging flame, which was spreading from the direction of the street, and there were still many spectators holding up their mobile phones to take pictures. I retreated, but I just stayed on the street, didn't move forward, didn't go back, just watched this real-life version of the apocalypse.

As the police arrived, the sirens of the police cars raced from a few blocks away, and it wasn't until the tingling flush cleared that I came back to my senses and stared at the puffs of dark smoke and dust that continued to engulf the blue sky.

That night, the town's television station reported the disaster.

(After a preliminary investigation by the police, it was suspected that the disaster was caused by a fuel leak, but because it was not at the peak of the season, there were no serious casualties, and unfortunately, one victim was still killed.) Regarding the identity of the victim, the police are also verifying, and the victim was killed in the fire, so all the relevant documents on her body were burned. At present, the police revealed that the victim was an adult woman. The following is the footage taken by our reporter for the first time...... )

The flames burned, the air filled with the wrath of death, the roar, the merciless fire that engulfed it all, as if the world it existed in had already been destroyed.

(According to the police investigation, the burning suitcase is a relic of the deceased, and no clues can be extracted from the charred suitcase at this time.) )

Seeing this, I immediately stood up and replayed the news video again.

(According to the police investigation, the burning suitcase, which is the relic of the deceased, has not been removed from the charred suitcase...... )

I pressed the pause, staring at the frozen image on the screen with a stunned look. Oh my God, this, this box! This suitcase! It's hers! Incredulous, I immediately checked the surveillance records in the hotel lobby again. Sure enough, this morning, when the guests of room 302 came to check out, it was this dark blue suitcase that was dragged!

The blood in my body seemed to have stopped, and my heart was cold, and I couldn't calm down after drinking two glasses of hot milk in a row. Then I thought about the room she was in, 302, the diary on the bedside table. Thoroughly, I'm sluggish.

Numb for a long time, my hand holding the phone was dangling, not knowing whether I should call the police, if this matter has something to do with my hotel, I'm afraid I won't have to run it anymore. Helpless, I trembled and slowly climbed up to the third floor to room 302. However, the brown paper diary on the bedside table was gone.

For the next two days, I searched all the corners of the room, but I didn't see the diary, and I even suspected that maybe I was hallucinating. 】

The old man's solemn eyes were full of worry, and he said to Mu Tianyu seriously: "Young man, this thing is a bad thing, I don't understand why it appeared in your room, but, I'm afraid...... You're ...... now."

"It's fine." Mu Tianyu smiled indifferently, and then put the diary in his bag. "By the way, is there a church in the town?"

"The Chapel?" The old man's eyes were stunned.

"Yes, the Missionary Church."

"In ......," the old man pointed to the north of the town. At the end of Beitang Road, near the halfway up the mountain, there is a desolate house, and the residents of the town are more realistic, so there are not many believers in this town. The old man looked at Mu Tianyu and asked, "You are going to the church, are you a believer?" ”

Mu Tianyu shook his head and sighed: "If there is really something wrong with this diary, I think the people there should know about it." Then he turned and walked away. (To be continued.) )
