Gurgle...
The sound of marbles rolling came clearly from the door, followed by the playful laughter of a child.
"Child……"
Qin Nuo raised his eyebrows and said to Meng, "You stay here, I'll go out and take a look."
"Is it grandson of grandma?" Meng asked.
"If so, it would save me a lot of trouble."
"What if he doesn't listen?" Meng asked with her head tilted.
"If you don't listen, I, your brother, have a trick to make you 100% obedient." Qin Nuo said, putting on a windbreaker, then picked up an oil lamp, pushed open the door, and walked out.
When I opened the door, it was dark outside, with only a little scattered light coming in from the end of the corridor.
Qin Nuo stood in the corridor, gently closed the door behind him, and looked to the left and right.
The sound of the marbles was still there. Qin Nuo moved his ears and walked to the right. Just as he took a step, a marble rolled over and stopped at his feet.
Qin Nuo bent down to pick up the marbles, looked up at the front, and then marbles rolled out from the darkness one by one. The dense sound of marbles colliding echoed in the corridor.
Standing up, in the dim darkness, the figure of a child could be vaguely seen.
It seemed to notice Qin Nuo and said, "Brother, can you pick up those marbles and return them to me?"
Qin Nuo didn't pick it up, holding only one in his hand, but asked: "Why are you not sleeping at night and outside by yourself? Where are your parents?"
"I don't know what they're going to do. They're so secretive. They let me out to play on my own and even closed the door."
"Xiaotian was bored, so he started playing by himself."
"Really? Come on, I'll give you the marbles back. Come and get them."
Qin Nuo stretched out his hand and opened his palm.
In the darkness, the child came out.
With the help of the candlelight from the oil lamp in his hand, Qin Nuo could see its appearance clearly.
His skin was gray, and the scary thing was that his entire body was almost skin and bones, his eyes were sunken, his mouth was cracked, his gums were turned out, and his entire body skeleton was clearly visible, and his skin was extremely scary.
Qin Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly, and the child said with a smile: "Brother, you seem to be bored too, do you want to play a game with Xiaotian?"
"What game?" Qin Ma asked.
"Hide and seek. This hotel is so big, we can hide in many places." Xiaotian opened his arms and gestured.
"Tell me first, where are your parents?" Qin Nuo stood up and asked.
Xiaotian pointed to room 503 over there.
It should be correct.
Qin Nuo thought to himself, put his hands in his pockets, and said with a smile: "If I win, can you agree to one of my requests?"
"Sure, I'll listen to you, brother."
Xiaotian smiled. Although his face looked very scary, he spoke in a simple and well-behaved manner.
Qin Nuo said: "So now, should I catch you first, or should you catch me first?"
Xiaotian blinked his dark eyes, and a subtle light flashed in his sunken eye sockets: "Brother, we are all mice, we must hide well."
"We are mice, so who will..."
Qin Nuo stopped talking midway.
A layer of goose bumps appeared on the back of his neck. The next moment, Qin Nuo turned around abruptly and stared at the darkness behind him.
There was nothing in the light of the oil lamp, but Qin Nuo was sure that there was something behind him, and it was sticking closely to him!
Neither he nor the Blood-Eyed Ghost reacted immediately.
"Hehehe, brother, they have started the countdown, we have to find a place to hide." Xiaotian covered his mouth and laughed softly.
"What are they?"
"Xiaotian doesn't know them, but they are very enthusiastic and insist on pulling me to play," Xiaotian said.
"If, I mean if, what will happen if we get caught?" Qin Nuo asked.
"I don't know, but they said if they catch us, they'll play a more interesting game. I'm so excited!"
Qin Nuo didn't frown. He should have been direct and firm instead of wasting so much words.
"We still have one minute." Xiaotian looked at the children's watch and said seriously.
Qin Nuo grabbed Xiaotian without saying a word and went to the elevator, but it was of no use at all. Even the buttons were dark.
It’s true that after twelve o’clock, the water and electricity are gone!
Qin Nuo could only run downstairs with Xiao Tiantian.
Xiaotian didn't make a fuss. He was carried in his hand like a schoolbag. It was so light that it was almost weightless.
While going downstairs, I was still counting down
As the countdown entered the final ten seconds, Qin Nuo frowned, turned a corner, walked into the public restroom on the side, and hid in a cubicle.
It was also at this time that Xiaotian's countdown ended.
Qin Nuo covered its mouth, and the air suddenly became quiet.
I listened carefully, but there was still an eerie silence.
Qin Nuo waited for a long time before he felt a little relieved: "It seems that he didn't find this place."
I opened the door a crack and observed what was happening outside.
Qin Nuo said to Xiao Tian, "Let's go to the lobby downstairs."
Xiaotian sat on the water tank and had no intention of going with Qin Nuo. There was a hint of disappointment on his terrifying face.
"Brother, this is so boring."
"You don't even know how to play this game. You were found so quickly. Xiaotian thought you were so powerful!"
Qin Nuo listened to Xiaotian's words and reacted for a moment, and the Blood-Eyed Ghost then gave him a hint.
But when he looked up little by little, he could clearly see that there were two pairs of eyes on the top of the cubicle, staring straight at Qin Nuo.
The look in his eyes was dull, like two broken eyeballs, embedded in his eye sockets, without expression, let alone emotion...
