"Kill...kill someone!"
Xie Wanrou, who was following Su Chen, suddenly saw this scene, turned pale and screamed.
The woman who cut off the legs of the three people was the female hotel employee who had a conflict with them before. There was no mistake.
Others were no better.
Su Chen looked at the bloody scene, his whole body stiffened, but his eyes unintentionally passed over the people in front of him.
They were exceptionally calm, as if they were commonplace.
A bad thought quietly crossed my mind.
Could it be that what those two men said was true?
"Didn't we pay the money?! Why aren't you allowed in?!" Someone on Su Chen's side was hysterical.
The woman said nothing.
Poppy looked the same, as if she hadn't seen the horrifying scene at all, and asked calmly: "What will I use to pay the fee?"
There is a high probability that the dungeon contains special items.
as expected.
The woman rolled her cloudy eyes and said in a dull and gloomy voice, "Corpse."
Corpse? !
Everyone's expressions changed, and they couldn't help but think of the piles of bird carcasses on the beach.
Xie Wanrou couldn't help but gag.
Poppy then asked: "Whose body is it?"
The woman moved her head mechanically, revealing a strange and cold smile: "Of course it's the body of a bird."
"Every person staying in the hotel needs to pay two bird corpses a day." She glanced at everyone, "If you want to stay in the hotel, hurry up and find the corpses."
After saying that, she glanced meaningfully in the direction of the sun: "It's almost setting."
Jiang Jiu turned around and left.
Wei Chen and the three others quickly followed.
In an instant, Su Chen and his party were the only ones left in front of the hotel door.
No one dared to care about the three people whose legs were amputated. The situation was so weird now. It would be great if they could take care of themselves. How could they have time to care about others.
Xie Wanrou tried her best not to look at the bloody and disgusting scene.
"Master Su, what should we do now? Do we really want to pick up bird carcasses?"
She swallowed, her face full of panic.
Su Chen was a little irritable.
The situation was far beyond his expectation. Moreover, was it really possible to stay in a hotel that used bird carcasses as currency?
…
…
There were bird carcasses everywhere on the beach. Picking just two would satisfy the hotel's check-in standards. Wei Chen rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight: "Let's hurry up. From what the woman just said, there is probably a time limit for checking into the hotel." Woolen cloth."
The poppy couldn't deny it. After Tao Ming heard this, even though she felt a little uncomfortable, she began to look for a suitable corpse. The corpse that had been dead for too long had dried up and rotted, and there were still maggots crawling on it. She couldn't stand the shocking picture and could only retreat. The next best thing is to look for corpses that are still fresh.
Only Jiang Jiu went back and forth, squatting down to look at the bird carcasses, but had no intention of picking them up.
Logically speaking, since the resort is on an island, most of the dead bird carcasses should be seabirds, but most of these carcasses are of the same species, and seabirds only account for a small part of them.
The withered orange-red feathers were so dirty that at first glance they looked like dried blood stains.
She took out her phone and clicked on the pictures she had saved online.
The bird in the picture is plump and cute, and it also has an orange and reddish patch on its chest - a robin.
Jiang Jiu's eyes darkened as he recalled the information he had searched for before.
Robins are forest birds that like to live in woodlands, shrubs, forests, parks and gardens, especially robins with orange down on their chests. They can appear in urban areas or remote areas, but they are unique. It is impossible for Du to appear in groups on this island.
The environment here cannot breed robins with bright feathers.
Jiang Jiu stood up, thoughtful.
If there is a difference between bird carcasses, which one is required for a hotel stay?
Wei Chen, who was holding a few birds in his hands, said, "What are you thinking about, little Jiang Jiang? We don't have enough time later."
The poppy straightened up and followed her gaze to the bird carcasses on the ground, and then looked down at the carcasses in his hands. When he was picking them up, he also noticed the different types of birds, but he didn't think clearly about the mystery.
"Is there anything wrong?"
Jiang Jiu raised his head.
"Before I entered the copy, I heard a song." Although there were only sporadic fragments, it did not prevent her from distinguishing it.
"That's a very famous British nursery rhyme, maybe you've heard it too." The girl said calmly, "The song's name is, Who Killed the Mockingbird."
Who Killed the Mockingbird.
The three people present were startled. They had all heard this nursery rhyme more or less. The robin in it was used as a symbol by many Chinese and foreign writers. The robin symbolizes innocence and purity, and the nursery rhyme originated from the innocent. ’s death began, and the animals that were originally indifferently watching expressed their regrets only after the death of the robin, so many theorists like to quote this poem, or write horror stories based on this poem.
Could it be said that the theme of this copy is to find out the culprit who killed the robin?
Putting it this way, the name of the dungeon "Begging for Sin" is quite reasonable.
Naturally, Jiang Jiu would not ignore anything that Poppy could think of, and the clear answer was given at the beginning of the nursery rhyme.
The sparrow killed the robin, the murderer was the sparrow.
But, what does this have to do with the hotel they are staying at? Does the hotel need the carcass of a robin or a sparrow?
No, there are no sparrow corpses here at all!
Jiang Jiu frowned slightly.
Wei Chen tentatively said, "How about each of us take a different body back and don't put all the eggs in the same basket."
Seeing that Jiang Jiu had no intention of speaking, Poppy said, "This is the only choice for now."
There is too little information available at the beginning, and perhaps more clues can only be obtained by entering the hotel.
…
…
Before the sun went down, the four of them returned to the hotel door.
Poppy and Wei Chen chose to bring the carcass of a robin, while Jiang Jiu Tao Ming chose four seabirds other than robins.
The woman's stiff and cold gaze passed over the bird carcasses in their hands. After confirming the number, she put away the machete: "The number is up to standard, and you can move in."
Jiang Jiu's eyebrows moved slightly.
Did she think too much?
There is no need to distinguish between types at all, as long as the quantity is sufficient?
The interior of the hotel is no different from before. Tao Ming's mood is very complicated now. If the check-in fee hadn't changed from soft sister coins to corpses, it would be hard for her to believe that her hotel had turned into a haunted house.
The woman led them into the elevator.
"The hotel's curfew is six-thirty, please do not leave the room after six-thirty."
"Please stay on your own floor unless necessary and do not cross floors to disturb other guests."
"The curfew is lifted at 6 a.m. and guests can move freely. Lunch and dinner will be held in the restaurant. Guests can go to the restaurant later to check the dining time."
"If you find any live birds in our hotel, please do not panic and notify hotel staff immediately and we will handle it for you." (End of Chapter)
