The hotel lobby manager told Chu Zhu that there were no cleaning staff to clean their first floor.
Chu Zhu didn't speak anymore. What was echoing in his mind was the knock on the door just now. What the lobby manager told him later, he didn't listen at all.
After hanging up the phone, cold sweat broke out on Chu Zhu's forehead.
If the person who knocked on the door just now was not the cleaning staff, who could it be?
Is it a bad ghost?
There is definitely more than one evil ghost coming back for revenge in the town. Although the town is very big, the chance of finding them is actually not too small.
The power of Li Gui is limited, but it does not mean that they, the trickster, have the ability to use tricks with each other. If they really hit each other in the face, they will still escape death.
He quickly took out his ghost weapon - a broken mirror.
In the crack, you can vaguely see the ferocious face in the mirror!
It seemed to be sealed in the mirror, with a pair of blood-red eyes staring at the outside of the mirror, a strange smile on its face.
Holding the ghost mirror in hand, Chu Zhu carefully came to the door, first looked outside through the peephole, and then opened the door.
Creak - the door opened a crack.
The corridor outside was deserted.
The entire corridor seemed extremely empty, with no one in sight.
After hesitating for a moment, he went out, took the room card, and locked his door.
He chased in the direction in which the sound he heard disappeared, and soon arrived at the entrance of the corridor, but there was no sound from upstairs or downstairs.
"No, the sound disappeared in this direction. The other party was pushing a small car. There is no reason for him to take the stairs..."
Chu Zhu frowned slightly.
The elevator is not here, but at the other end.
What is going on?
His eyes glanced at a camera above his head. Chu Zhu's heart moved and he immediately went downstairs.
He didn't notice that the ghost in the broken mirror in his hand had been staring in a certain direction.
Arriving at the lobby on the first floor, Chu Zhu immediately found the lobby manager, who had a hint of surprise on his face.
"Mr. Chu, what are you..."
Chu Zhu didn't talk nonsense to him, came directly to his side and said to him:
"Hurry up and show me the video from the third floor, the last 5 minutes!"
The lobby manager had some hesitation:
"This... Mr. Chu, the hotel's surveillance video cannot be shown to guests casually. Our town has clear rules..."
Before he finished speaking, Chu Zhu threw him a large stack of banknotes.
“It’s not enough, add more.”
The lobby manager looked at the banknotes on the table and swallowed his saliva. The thick pile on it was already worth more than half a year's salary!
"Is it enough?"
Chu Zhu spoke again, and the lobby manager came to his senses and nodded hurriedly:
"That's enough, that's enough...just a moment!"
The punishment was nothing compared to the wad of bills on the table.
He quickly called up the surveillance video.
Through the surveillance video, the two saw what happened within ten minutes——
A man wearing cleaner's clothes pushed a cleaning truck and came straight to Chu Zhu's door and knocked on his door.
Then after a while, he left again.
But the man was walking in the direction of the stairs.
When he got closer to the corridor, the camera could no longer capture him, and for some reason, the surveillance video on the third floor always looked... weird.
"That's not right... I remember that the surveillance video in the corridor can clearly capture the entire corridor."
The lobby manager muttered.
Chu Zhu seemed to have thought of something.
"I'll look at the other floors."
The lobby manager adjusted the surveillance cameras to the 4th and 5th floors, and after comparing them back and forth, the two found that the surveillance cameras on the 4th floor had indeed been moved. Not only was the angle wrong, but it also seemed to have a faint layer of red.
"Did you catch something dirty..."
The lobby manager said to himself, then picked up the phone and was about to contact the hotel cleaning staff, but was stopped by Chu Zhu.
The latter's movements were rough and his eyes were faintly bloodshot.
"Quick, bring up the real-time monitoring!"
The lobby manager was startled and hurriedly called up the real-time monitoring.
In the surveillance video, a "cleaning staff" wearing a mask whose face could not be seen clearly took out a hotel-specific universal card, swiped the door of Chu Zhu's room, and then pushed the door open.
When Chu Zhu saw this, he yelled, "You bastard." He rushed upstairs like crazy and posted a message in the small group.
"Quick, the 'pot' appears!"
"In my room!"
"It's coming for the heart, block it and don't let it escape!"
He rushed all the way and soon reached the third floor, and several team members rushed out of the corridor, but before they approached Chu Zhu's room, a strange sound suddenly came from somewhere in the corridor.
It was dripping, as if there was a leak somewhere.
Since the hotel is located in a relatively remote location, it is relatively quiet even during the day. The sound immediately attracted the attention of the strangers. After searching for it, they quickly located the surveillance camera on the third floor. Camera!
There... was bleeding.
Not a drop or two, but a stream of blood.
"Look at the hammer, come into my room quickly, don't let the 'pot' escape!"
Chu Zhu was anxious.
Even if he really hits a ghost at this time, he will never give up easily!
The heart is the key to catching the "pot"!
If the opponent takes away all their hearts at once, then their team will be completely passive!
By then, the initiative will be completely in the hands of Chen Shouxi and his group!
Some team members woke up from a dream. Hong You was the first to rush to Chu Zhu's door, but soon she shouted to Chu Zhu:
"Boss, room card!"
Chu Zhu took out the room card and threw it to Hong You.
They were separated by the weird camera above their head, but Chu Zhu didn't dare to go there.
Didi——
The door was opened.
At the same time, Hong You broke through the door directly, but the next moment, she let out a scream!
The people outside the door saw a pale hand grabbing Hong You's hair and roughly dragging her into the room. Before they could help, the door was completely closed!
At the same time, the camera above the head was completely broken, and a broken, bloody hand came out of the small dark hole!
"I found you, I found you...hehe..."
A hoarse and terrifying voice resounded in the corridor, accompanied by a biting coldness, and then a terrifying bloody man emerged from the camera in front of everyone!
This process was extremely painful, and it kept screaming, making everyone's scalp numb!
"escape!"
I don’t know who shouted first, and then everyone fled towards the elevator at the other end!
Chu Zhu looked at his teammates who dispersed like birds and animals, gritted his teeth, but still yelled:
"After you get down, quickly go downstairs behind and block that guy!"
"He's definitely going to jump out of the window and escape!"
After saying that, he ran downstairs himself.
On the third floor, this height is somewhat dangerous for ordinary people, but because the hotel is located in a remote location, the lawn on the back is very soft. Although it looks scary, as long as you fall normally, you will basically not be seriously injured.
What's more, that "pot" is not an ordinary person!
After they escaped, the terrifying ghost finally emerged from the camera. It lay on the ceiling of the hotel like a spider, then showed a terrifying smile and quickly climbed towards the elevator...
Shortly after they left, Chu Zhu's door opened.
Ning Qiushui appeared at the door carrying an ice bag, changed her clothes.
"You have already obtained the heart. Should the video be deleted?"
Hong You's voice came from the room behind him.
She stared at Ning Qiushui and clenched her fists.
"I didn't take the video."
Ning Qiushui said without looking back.
Hong You's body shook violently, and her throat moved. Just as she was about to say something, Ning Qiushui lit another cigarette and put it in her mouth, and added:
"Just a word of advice, you'd better find that person named 'Sun Falcon' as soon as possible. With the speed of your body's decay, you won't be able to survive for more than a few days. You will die before others."
"Sun Falcon had many connections with the corpse stitcher before. If you find him, you might be able to survive."
"I have just described his general appearance to you. If you have any news, please contact me."
Ning Qiushui was about to leave after saying this, but Hong You's sharp and angry voice came from behind:
"You are a liar!"
"fraud!"
"You bastard!!"
"If I believe you again..."
Ning Qiushui looked back at her with a calm expression:
"When people are in despair, they will not let go of any hope."
"You know I 'might' have lied to you this time, but you will still spare no effort to find it."
Hong You's expression was twisted and her tone was almost crazy:
"You're just lying to me, you're just lying to me!"
"Speak quickly, you are lying to me!"
Ning Qiushui smiled and blew out the smoke, turned around and left. A faint voice came from the stairs:
"You think you're smart, let's bet again... Bet on whether I lied this time."
Looking at his disappearing back, Hong You covered her face with both hands and knelt down on the ground, her body twitching violently...
pS: First update, there will be another update later.
