But Jiang Cheng is more concerned about what Zhou Tong plans to do next.
"It's 9 o'clock at night. According to the experience of previous missions, it is too dangerous to walk around outside during this time. I suggest... we should find a place to rest first." Lu Yu said in a weak voice.
This sudden sentence instantly aroused Jiang Cheng's alert. Lu Yu had lost two teammates, and now she was the only one left. No matter how you looked at it, it was not her turn to give advice.
Moreover, Lu Yu was still crying just now, but now his eyes were so calm that Jiang Cheng was afraid.
His eyes swept over Lu Yu and Zhou Tong. Jiang Cheng's face remained calm, and he comforted him very naturally: "Lu Yu, don't worry. With all of us here, we will be fine."
"That's right, nothing will happen to us." Fatty also made a promise to Lu Yu.
But at this moment, Jiang Cheng could no longer calm down in his heart. He could clearly feel the oppressive feeling of an impending storm. The closer it was to the time for the ghost show, the more impatient the disguised ghosts around him became. .
But this is not entirely a bad thing. The more impatient the ghost is, the more tricks he will reveal. Excluding the two dead people, the identities of Zhou Tong and Lu Yu have also been confirmed.
In other words, Teacher Zigui, Bai Xi, and Lu Yu are all ghosts.
This is what makes Jiang Cheng wary the most.
It also reminded him of what the Ghost Bride said on the bus: Don't trust anyone.
The ghost bride and the newspaper man are both law enforcers in the old president's field, and they must have an understanding of each other's abilities. It seems that the ghost bride is worried that she will be confused by the newspaper man's ability, so she said such a thing.
"Look, there is a drawer here that can be opened." Zhou Tong suddenly said.
When Jiang Cheng heard this, he knew that she was setting the pace again, but he didn't want to expose her. He glanced at Lin Wan'er subconsciously, and their eyes met in an instant. The tacit understanding cultivated over many years made Jiang Cheng understand that Lin Wan'er had also seen through Zhou Tong's identity. .
Zhou Tong squatted down and opened a drawer that had been dusty for a long time. The drawer handle was still covered in dust.
Du Moyu came forward, half-knelt on the ground, and looked into the drawer.
Zhou Tong reached in and took out a piece of paper. The writing on the paper was very scrawled. It looked like it was written in a hurry. The content was very simple. It was to remind the guests staying in the hotel not to go out and wander around at night. Try to stay in your own room as much as possible, and don't pay attention even if you hear any strange noises.
No more than two people can stay in each room.
Finally, a very confusing sentence was added to remind guests to abide by the hotel's regulations and be sure to put on slippers when entering the room.
The word "slippers" is followed by an exclamation mark.
Zhou Tong pretended to be scared and urged everyone to find a room and move in quickly. Then he stood up and went to get the hotel room key, but unexpectedly, someone beat him to it.
Chenran quickly stepped in front of Zhou Tong and said with a smile: "I don't have to worry about this, Miss Zhou, let me do it." After saying that, he didn't listen to Zhou Tong's explanation, and quickly took off the keys one by one and put them in his pocket.
Jiang Cheng could feel that Zhou Tong was about to explode with anger. He once thought that Zhou Tong was going to tear off his mask and take action directly. But whether it was because he was afraid of Chenran or restricted by the rules, Zhou Tong endured the sigh, turned sideways, and Chenran let it go.
"Thank you, Miss Zhou." Chenran grinned as if to show off, patted his pocket with his hand, and the keys inside made a clattering sound, "Believe me, we will be fine tonight."
Xia Meng stared at Chenran, Lin Wan'er and others, and whispered, "Madman."
A storm was resolved invisibly, and Jiang Cheng's tense heartstrings relaxed. When he turned around, he saw Fatty comforting Lu Yu heartlessly, asking her to cheer up and be stronger. Jiang Cheng was so angry that he wanted to rush over. Give him a kick.
We didn't dare to stay here for a long time. After everyone discussed it, they decided to go upstairs to take a look. At this time, Su Xiaoxiao, who hadn't spoken to each other for a long time, spoke up, "Everyone." Her handsome face was as cold as ice, "Why do I feel something is wrong here? , we seem... as if we are being led by the nose."
"Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence to find these keys and the drawer with the note?" Su Xiaoxiao said bluntly, as if he was not afraid of offending anyone at all.
Hearing what Su Xiaoxiao said, Zhou Tong's face suddenly darkened, "What do you mean? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't hide it!"
"Did I say it was you? Why are you so excited?" Su Xiaoxiao responded mercilessly.
Seemingly sensing the threat from Zhou Tong, Su An uncharacteristically showed a fierce expression towards Zhou Tong, and at the same time pulled her sister Su Xiaoxiao behind her.
Seeing that something was wrong, Xia Qiang and others stepped forward to pull the two groups apart and persuaded them to calm down. We are all in the same team and are all friends of Mr. Jiang, so don't hurt the harmony.
In the end, it was Lin Wan'er who stood up and made the final decision, asking everyone to go upstairs to look for clues. As soon as this woman opened her mouth, her momentum overwhelmed the entire audience, and no one said anything more.
Everyone found a hotel layout map at the corner. According to the guidance of the map, everyone learned that there are three ways to go upstairs.
There is a main staircase in the middle of the hotel, mainly for guests.
There is also a narrower and more shabby small staircase on the left side, which is used by hotel employees to go up and down the stairs daily. It can also be used as an escape route in case of emergency.
At the same time, there is an old-fashioned elevator on the right side of the hotel, which is exclusively for VIP use.
The elevator was abandoned directly. The employee passage on the far left was too narrow. There were so many of them that in case of emergency, they couldn't move at all, so they had to choose the spacious main staircase.
The main staircase was very luxuriously built, and you could barely hear footsteps when your shoes stepped on the carpet. But what really caught Jiang Cheng's attention was the mirror that was taller than a person at the corner of the staircase.
This immediately reminded Jiang Cheng that in the newspaper story, there was a huge mirror, and the strange thing was that after every fire, the nameless charred corpse would appear in front of the mirror.
Unfortunately, the hotel had been renovated at the moment, and Jiang Cheng found no other clues near the mirror.
They walked along the stairs to the 3rd floor.
Chenran took out the key and looked at everyone, "There are two keys for this floor. Which of you wants to live here?"
When Su Xiaoxiao saw no one answered, she raised her hand and said, "I can live on this floor, but I only need one room. My brother and I live together."
Su Xiaoxiao took the key from Chenran's hand and just turned around. Before opening the door, Zhou Tong suddenly said, "Give me a key too, I want to live on this floor too."
Zhou Tong stared at Su Xiaoxiao with a playful expression, "I want to be neighbors with Miss Su."
