The few of them were scared to death after hearing what the old lady said.
The few of them were scared out of their wits. Dai Wei exclaimed, "What did you say? Your son has been dead for three years? "
The old woman's expression was a little sad as she said, "Yes, my wife took my son's car to the city to see a doctor three years ago. In the end, she was hit by a drunk driver at a highway intersection."
"My wife and son died on the spot, and the car that caused the accident ran away. My granddaughter and I were the only ones left."
She wiped her tears as she spoke to this point. "However, my granddaughter found out that her boyfriend had married another woman behind her back last month. She couldn't take it anymore, so she hung herself in this room."
She did not look like she was lying.
The few of them in the room looked at each other by instinct. They did not sympathize with her at all. Instead, they shuddered in fear.
If the old lady's son, who was the hotel owner, was dead, then who was the person they saw earlier?
Could it be a ghost?
"Keep making things up, old thing. I don't believe you."
Dai Wei scoffed and gave Old Shen a look. The few of them walked out of the room directly and headed downstairs. They seemed to be looking for the hotel owner to refute what the old lady said.
However, they did not see the hotel owner when they arrived at the first floor. Instead, they found three photos in the mourning hall.
One of them was an old man with age spots all over his face while the other was a pretty lady in her 20s. They must be the old lady's husband and granddaughter that she was talking about.
Meanwhile, the last photo was of a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man's face was pale. The most eye-catching thing about him was the huge birthmark on the left side of his face.
Who else could it be if it was not the hotel owner that they had seen earlier?
Di Jing's face turned pale. She was terrified and shocked. She said while covering her mouth, "H-is he really dead?"
"How is that possible?!"
Dai Wei's teeth were shaking when he said that.
In the blink of an eye, he found out that he had been dead for three years. No one would be able to accept this.
Old Shen's face twitched hard. He walked over while waving his torchlight to take a closer look. He exclaimed all of a sudden, "Look! What's this?!"
The few of them looked in the direction he was pointing at.
He saw that there was another photo behind the woman's photo.
The person in the photo was wearing a red shroud. He was slightly handsome and looked to be about 24 or 25 years old. There was a strange smile on his lips.
Swoosh!
Di Jing and Old Shen looked at Dai Wei who was next to them at the same time and said in a trembling voice, "Dai Wei, is … is that you up there?"
Dai Wei felt like he had been struck by lightning. He was stunned. "Why … why is there a picture of me here? I … I'm not dead! "
Old Shen and Di Jing could not help but take two steps back by instinct. There was fear in their eyes when they looked at him.
What they did not notice was a mocking smirk at the corner of Ye Chen's lips. He seemed to be in disdain.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Dai Wei swallowed hard when he saw that everyone's reaction was a little strange. "Are you guys suspecting that I'm a ghost?"
He was really scared!
If it was said that before this, he was bold and fearless because of his skills, then the series of events that he had experienced now could be said to have broken down his psychological defense.
"Dai Wei, can … can you explain why your portrait is here? Also, the shroud that you're wearing … "Di Jing stammered.
Now, they no longer suspected Ye Chen.
Since Ye Chen had just met them, he did not have the chance to leave along the way. How could he have Dai Wei's photo? Moreover, it was a photo of him before he died.
"Explain my a * s!
How the f * ck would I know?! "
Even Dai Wei, who liked Di Jing and spoke softly, could not help but curse at that moment. "I finally understand now. There's something wrong with this hotel, the hotel owner, and that old lady!"
"Damn it, why are you trying to trick me? Do you really think that I'm a pushover?" Dai Wei seemed to have gone mad. He pushed the memorial tablet before him and turned around to rush to the second floor. He seemed to be trying to ask the old lady from before.
"Let's go!"
Old Shen said and took the lead to catch up.
Di Jing hesitated and glanced at Ye Chen. She stood behind Ye Chen while biting her lip. Clearly, she dared not be alone.
Ye Chen chuckled softly and walked to the second floor like he was taking a stroll in the park. He saw Dai Wei rummaging through the rooms on the second floor with bloodshot eyes. He cursed, "You b * tch, where the f * ck did you hide me? Show yourself now! "
However, he could not find anyone after rummaging through the entire second floor. The old lady from before seemed to have vanished into thin air.
"There's really something wrong with this hotel!"
Old Shen stopped Dai Wei and forced a smile. "It seems like it was a mistake for us to stay here. The hotel owner said that the old lady has been dead for five years, and the old lady said that the hotel owner has been dead for three years. I'm confused."
"Old Shen, they're all gone now. Do you think they're …" Di Jing said weakly with a terrified expression on her face.
"I don't care anymore!"
Old Shen sighed softly. "Let's go. Let's leave this strange place now. We can't stay here any longer!"
Old Shen took the lead and walked after saying that.
When they arrived at the entrance of the first floor, they saw a pretty lady in a white chiffon dress walking toward them. The lady was only 24 or 25 years old.
Old Shen stopped in his tracks.
Dai Wei and Di Jing, who were behind him, almost screamed in fear when they saw the lady's face.
The reason being the lady before them was the lady in the portrait.
The one who hung herself!
The lady looked at them and said while frowning, "Why are you guys in my house? Who let you guys in? "
"A-Are you a human or a ghost?" Old Shen shouted.
Pfft!
The lady could not help but laugh out loud. She was shaking from laughing. "Hey, sir, why are you so funny? Of course, I'm a human. If I were a ghost, I'd eat you guys. "
She spun as she spoke. She said while smiling, "Do you guys think I'm a human or a ghost?"
The few of them could not help but feel doubtful when they noticed that there was a shadow on the ground when she spun. However, they did not let their guard down.
Dai Wei glared at her. "Didn't your dad and grandma say that you died last month?"
"Pfft, pfft, pfft!"
The lady spat at him and said angrily while puffing her cheeks, "You're the one who's dead."
Subsequently, her expression changed drastically. "What did you say? My dad and grandma said that I'm dead? "
Old Shen nodded.
The lady's eyes widened. "Are you guys kidding me? My dad and grandma died a long time ago. Why would they say that to you guys? Don't tell me that they came to me in my dream? "
"Let's go, let's go!"
Old Shen's scalp went numb. He did not want to dwell on that anymore. He grabbed Di Jing behind him and ran out of the hotel entrance.
Dai Wei shuddered and hurriedly followed him.
Ye Chen and Iron Tower were the last.
However, they did not notice that the lady was watching them leave coldly. Her eyes were like a venomous snake's. She seemed to be hesitating if she should follow them.
At that moment, Ye Chen turned his head to glance at her as if he sensed something. He said softly, "Get lost!"
Just one glance.
The lady scoffed and black smoke came out of her body!
