Chapter 111 Rainy Night Hotel 2
The door seemed to be made of wood. When Yu Xi pushed it open, it made a creaking sound that was so noticeable that it made the hairs on the head stand on end.
The hotel was dark.
The floor beneath her feet seemed to be made of wood as well. As her shoes stepped on it, it made a creaking sound. The dilapidated hotel echoed with the sound of Yu Xi's footsteps.
With the faint light coming in from the window, Yu Xi walked around the entrance and went to the lobby on the first floor.
There was no electricity in the hotel. Several people were sitting on the floor, holding candles in their hands. They all turned their heads and looked over when they heard the sound from the entrance.
At the same time, the system finally gave a prompt:
[The players have all arrived.]
[The script begins.
Yu Nuo heaved a sigh of relief, and finally felt like she had escaped from the terrifying atmosphere of the hotel. "
Hey, who is this?"
With the help of the firelight, all the players finally saw Yu Nuo's face clearly. The man laughed, "The famous Yu Nuo."
Her hands and feet were cold from the rain. Yu Nuo raised her head slowly and looked at the players, imitating their movements and sitting cross-legged.
"What a coincidence," the man sitting next to Yu Zhen was obviously a chatterbox, staring at Yu Zhen with interest, "Let's get acquainted, my name is-"
"It's not too late for everyone to introduce themselves," said a girl with a ponytail. I don't know if she saw the man's intention, but she rolled her eyes while talking, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
The man shut up unhappily.
There were not many candles in the hotel, only four on the ground, and the candlelight was weak, so Yu Zhen could only see the appearance of two people around her.
She didn't know any of them.
After the girl finished speaking, a player on the opposite side smiled and tried to smooth things over, "Then let's start with me. Let's introduce our names and brief situations in clockwise order."
"My name is Tan Lan. I'm good at logical reasoning and decryption, not so good at other things, so this dungeon should be quite suitable for me."
Tan Lan was a gentle man with fair skin. He spoke at a moderate speed with a slight smile on his lips.
Next to Tan Lan were Yu Xi and another player. In clockwise order, the player on the left spoke.
From Yu Xi's perspective, the man's whole body was hidden in the darkness, revealing only a pair of slender and powerful hands.
"Shen Lin."
After saying his name, Shen Lin stopped talking.
Such a concise introduction made the chatterbox next to Yu Zhen very dissatisfied, "So little introduction, how come you got the identity of the murderer?"
The system has not yet drawn everyone's identity card, and what the man said is obviously wrong.
Shen Lin showed the lower half of his face with a mask under the firelight, without saying a word.
The chatterbox muttered a few words, and everyone's eyes turned to the next player.
"Qin Lingqi."
After that, there was silence in the room.
Qin Lingqi's facial features are very sharp, and then a little light reveals the high nose bridge and brow bone, casting a deep shadow under the eyes.
I don't know why, Yu Zhen always feels that Qin Lingqi has been looking at him.
The next person is the female player who just spoke, Sun Mei.
When the next player started to introduce himself, Yu Zhen stared blankly at the man who turned his head to reveal a familiar face, and heard a familiar name in her ears.
"My name is Chi Rong."
Chi Rong did not look at Yu Zhen or anyone else when he spoke, his dark eyes just stared at the dancing flames in front of him.
The chatterbox was even more dissatisfied, "What's wrong with all of you? No one introduced themselves properly."
After he finished introducing himself, Yu Zhen followed him absent-mindedly and said her name.
Chi Rong... why is he here?
Isn't he an NPC?
If Chi Rong is a player, why is there no contact information for him after the first copy ended?
Yu Zhen pursed her lips and glanced at Chi Rong secretly.
...Chi Rong, it seems that she doesn't know him.
.It
was raining heavily outside, rustling along the glass of the hotel window, with faint lightning and thunder.
The wind was so strong that the branches slapped against the window, making a rattling sound that made people's teeth ache.
Seven players.
Yu Xi counted silently and looked around at the expressions of everyone quietly.
Tan Lan, Sun Mei and the chatterbox next to her were obviously very interested in the script, but the remaining three people were a little strange.
Shen Lin, who was wearing a mask, had not spoken since he said his name, and the same went for Chi Rong.
As for Tan Lingqi opposite Yu Xi...
Yu Xi lowered her head slightly, avoiding the gaze that seemed to be real from the opposite side.
"I should be the first one to enter the game," Sun Mei said, "so I just took a quick look at the entire first floor."
She paused, suddenly turned sideways, her eyes slightly widened, "I don't know if you noticed a notice posted on the entrance wall."
The system had just prompted them to start telling ghost stories, so Sun Mei continued: "This hotel was abandoned a long time ago, so there is no one here, and the reason for abandonment is a murder that happened here many years ago."
There was a draft blowing through the first floor, and Yu Ling's skin was covered with small bumps.
"The hotel received a female guest many years ago. Like us, it suddenly rained heavily on the road at that time. It was late at night, so the female guest came to the hotel alone to stay."
"That night, the female guest died tragically in the bathroom. The body was cut into pieces. When the police found the body, the whole hotel was full of stench."
"The murderer was the hotel owner who suffered from mental illness. He fled because of the police's pursuit, so this hotel was abandoned."
Murder and dismemberment.
It's here.
Yu Xi held her breath, her face turned pale because of what Sun Mei said, and she didn't even bother to avoid Qin Lingqi's gaze.
The chatterbox named Wang noticed that Yu Xi's face was not right and couldn't help but tease, "You are so timid, you are scared now?"
Tan Lan listened very seriously, "If that's the case, the script wants us to find the murderer who escaped in the story, the inn owner."
"...And the owner himself should be among us."
As Tan Lan's voice fell, the main system's prompt sound rang in the ears of all players:
[The murder case that occurred in the hotel many years ago is still unsolved. Please find out the truth of that year. 】
【Script roles are being assigned...】
【Assignment completed... Error, reassignment in progress...】
【Players, please check your roles】
A black virtual card appeared in front of Yu Xi.
After clicking on the interface, the black role card revealed two large scarlet characters on the back. Yu Xi's fingers instantly became cold and she dared not move.
【Your role is the murderer】
【Please survive to the end and try to eliminate more square players】
Just when Yu Xi's mind was blank, Chi Rong, who was diagonally opposite, suddenly raised his head, stared at Yu Xi, and asked out of the blue:
——"Are you the murderer?"
Yu Xi felt her heartbeat in her chest pounding violently, and she almost couldn't breathe.
"No, I'm not..."
Chi Rong showed a faint smile expressionlessly.
