Shi Sheng flipped through Xiao Yu's sketchbook. It was almost finished.
There were crooked words written on it, indicating the location and time.
When he flipped to the back, Shi Sheng saw a very abstract figure. It should be a man. His whole body was black, and there were black marks all around.
The location was this hotel. Her room number.
Shi Sheng stared at it for a long time.
He could barely tell that it was a person.
The next few pictures were the same, but the time was different.
Shi Sheng closed the sketchbook, got up, and walked upstairs.
"Miss Ji, it's best if you don't leave the lobby." A policeman recognized her and reminded her.
The hotel said that the alarm was triggered by someone, which meant that it was man-made. Maybe there were criminals in the hotel.
"Got it." Shi Sheng answered, but her steps did not stop as she continued to walk up the stairs.
When he returned to his floor, Qu Miao was standing outside his room. She was floating back and forth, looking very anxious.
When Shi Sheng came out, she immediately rushed over. "Li Chengyun is here. What should we do? I can feel him."
"You're that scared of him?" Shi Sheng raised his eyebrows.
Qu Miao's expression changed.
"I'm not scared of him. I just …" Qu Miao yelled like a frightened little hen. "I just don't want to see him. Who knows what he wants to do with me."
After yelling, Qu Miao's aura weakened. "Li Chengyun and I have a contract. If he catches me, I can't do anything."
"Then run." They were in all directions. She could run wherever she wanted. Why would she be afraid of not being able to escape?
No matter how strong Li Chengyun was, he was still a person.
"Run?" Qu Miao's expression became even worse. "I can't get out of here. If I could run, I would have done it already."
Shi Sheng: "…"
When she met Li Chengyun before, she really did run if she could.
This was the first time he saw a female protagonist running away when she met a male protagonist.
"What do you mean we can't get out?" They couldn't get out of the door, but ghosts didn't use the door.
"We can't get out. There's a layer of black fog outside. The black fog can swallow us." Qu Miao's expression changed as she spoke, "Li Chengyun is here … What should we do, what should we do …"
Qu Miao floated upward. When the elevator door opened, the last bit of Qu Miao's skirt disappeared into the ceiling.
Shi Sheng looked in the direction of the elevator. It was empty. No one was inside.
There's a ghost!
…
The clock ticked away. Shi Sheng laid on the bed, not feeling sleepy at all.
She sat up, scratched her head, got off the bed, and left the room.
Shi Sheng went to the hall to get some food. It was not yet midnight, and there were still many people in the hall, but some of them had gone back to their rooms to rest.
"Hello, Miss Ji."
Shi Sheng bit his spoon and mumbled, "What?"
Damn it. Why can't you let me eat something nice?
"Miss Ji, Officer Li wants to talk to you." The policeman handed over a phone.
Shi Sheng stared at the phone for a moment, then took it and put it to his ear. "Spit it out."
"Miss Ji, it's an emergency. I hope you can help us in the hotel." Li He did not waste any time and went straight to the point. "We detected a very strong aura of resentment in the hotel. If we can't subdue it in time, everyone in the hotel will be in danger, including you."
"You want me to help?" Shi Sheng put down his spoon and supported his face with his hand. "You're asking for my help."
"Miss Ji, you're not just helping us. You're also helping yourself." Li He did not want to negotiate with this woman, but if he did not say anything, no one would come.
Shi Sheng's voice was neither fast nor slow. "I'm not afraid of death, and there are so many people who will die with me. I'm lucky. Why should I help you?"
Shi Sheng threw the phone to the policeman next to him and focused on eating his food.
Sounds came from the phone. The policeman was stunned for a while before he answered.
"Officer Li …"
"Give her the phone." Before he could finish, the woman did not answer the phone.
She was too arrogant!
The policeman wanted to pass the phone to her again, but just as he stretched out his hand, Shi Sheng gave him a threatening look.
The policeman's heart pounded wildly. He put the phone back to his ear. "Officer Li … Miss Ji is not answering."
There seemed to be something broken on Li He's end. The policeman's scalp went numb when he heard it. Those two people from the Special Investigation Unit were treated with respect by their superiors. They did not know where they came from.
Shi Sheng had not finished eating when the lobby was in chaos. A customer service representative stood in front of the policeman in a panic.
After hearing what the customer service representative said, the policeman immediately sent people upstairs.
Another person had died. This time, it was the woman who had caused trouble at the front desk.
Ten minutes ago, she had called the customer service representative to send food upstairs. However, when the customer service representative sent the food upstairs, they found her room door open.
That woman was already dead.
She was lying on the bed with a knife in her back. It was a fruit knife that the hotel had left in the room. The bed was covered in blood.
The policeman ordered everyone to stay at the scene and to go to the rooms below.
Shi Sheng slowly climbed up the stairs. After everyone had left, he pushed the people in the stairwell away.
The smell of blood still lingered in the air.
Shi Sheng stepped on the soft carpet and walked toward the room where the crime had occurred. The closer he got to the room, the stronger the smell of blood.
A chilly wind blew from the end of the corridor. It was bone-chilling. The lights above his head flickered non-stop.
Shi Sheng did not stop. He continued to walk toward the room.
Just as he stood outside the door, the chilly wind that had been lingering in the corridor suddenly became stronger. With a bang, the corridor was plunged into darkness.
Shi Sheng quickly took out his Iron Sword and swung it behind him. The Iron Sword seemed to have hit something. It was a little sluggish.
"Ah!" A shrill scream filled his eardrums. "B * tch, mind your own business!"
The sound seemed to come from all directions. Wave after wave, it hit his eardrums.
Shi Sheng followed his instinct and swung his sword to the side again.
"Go to hell! B * tch, go to hell! "
Shi Sheng felt something wrap around his wrist. It quickly spread to his neck and tightened violently. It seemed to want to strangle him.
But that feeling disappeared quickly. He was pulled by someone and knocked against the wall. The Iron Sword hit the door beside him with a loud bang.
Shi Sheng steadied herself. A black shadow swayed in front of her. She felt as if she had gone from midsummer to winter. It was so cold that she shivered.
It was him!
Shi Sheng swung his Iron Sword and pounced on the black shadow.
The closer he got to him, the more Shi Sheng felt that something was wrong.
Before he could react, the Iron Sword had already swung down.
The cold light flashed across the corridor. The black shadow seemed to have been split in half and dissipated in the air. The screams suddenly stopped. Only the chilly wind was left.
The chilly wind was mixed with the smell of blood.
It was nauseating.

Ah, the Feng Ci you want is coming online.
But I'm stuck. Hahaha!
Don't talk and vote! Pretend that I'm not here!
