This time I didn't answer him. Instead, I took the mineral water beside the bed and smashed it on his head. I yelled at him with all my strength: "Get out!"
The man covered his head and threw the mineral water bottle back. He seemed to remember his identity. "I'm just kindly reminding you. If you don't want to change, it's fine. It's quite late now. Please don't make loud noises and disturb other guests' rest."
"After he left, my first reaction was to flee the hotel. When my hand was on the door handle, I saw the man standing motionless in the corridor through the reflection of the curtain.
The place where he was was a blind spot for surveillance. If I walked in on my own initiative and something happened, no one would see who the murderer was.
My mind suddenly became clear, and thinking about the cases of collusion between insiders and outsiders that I had heard of in the past, I couldn't help but wonder if this was a trap they set for me on purpose.
So, Master, should I go out now, or stay in my room and call the police?"
This guy is a great storyteller. I got goosebumps just listening to him.
[Ah, I'm staying in the last room of the hotel right now. I'm a girl, and I feel like the room is getting really cold and windy. I'd better go to the front desk and ask for a different room.]
"Has this man ever considered another possibility? That what you saw was what the ghost wanted you to see. His goal was to keep you in this room so he could carry out his next plan. After all, it's not even midnight yet, and his magical power isn't at its peak yet."
[Fuck, that's what the above person said. Big brother, you should leave immediately.]
The various speculations in the barrage put Lin Han in a dilemma. He looked at Su Yan for help, hoping to get a definite answer.
Su Yan: "Go downstairs now. There's nothing outside that can hurt you. Go to the front desk and check the surveillance. All the mysteries will be solved."
Lin Han obediently opened the door and went straight to the front desk. As soon as he reached the front desk and had not yet expressed his wishes, he was questioned by the girl at the front desk.
"Who are you? I don't remember seeing you today. How come you came down from upstairs in the hotel?"
A major feature of the hotel where Lin Han stayed was its safety. It was said that all the staff in the hotel had been trained to have photographic memories, and they would remember every guest who checked in at the hotel.
Lin Han explained helplessly: "I am the tenant who came today, and my check-in information is on the computer."
"Impossible. I was on duty today, and I remember every guest who came. Even though I was away for a while, the rooms were already full by then, so it's impossible for new guests to come."
Being questioned like this, Lin Han was also very unhappy: "It was a male receptionist who received me. He said you were not feeling well, so he came to take your shift. The room number is 414, and he gave me the room card. If you don't believe me, just look at it."
Lin Han took out the room card from his pocket and handed it to the woman confidently.
The woman sneered, "Big Brother, even if you're acting, you should put some effort into it. It's too much to fool me with a billboard.
Moreover, we don’t have a male receptionist here, and the company won’t allow anyone to fill in for us. Most importantly, the sewer in bathroom 414 is clogged and is still under repair, so it’s impossible to rent it out.”
Lin Han was completely at a loss for words. He could only point to the computer and say, "The surveillance footage just now can prove my innocence. If there really is something wrong with me, I will voluntarily compensate the hotel for all its losses."
The receptionist was also extremely annoyed by his unreasonable behavior. She called up the surveillance video and said, "If it proves that you have a problem, I will send you to the police station."
The surveillance video started playing when Lin Han walked in.
In the picture, Lin Han walked to the front desk alone and began to talk to himself at the empty workstation. Then, he took a business card with an advertisement printed on it from the hanging place.
After receiving the business card, he continued to talk to himself in the air. When he arrived at the door, before he even placed the "door card" on the touch screen, the tightly closed door began to open.
The receptionist, who had been so confident just now, was so scared that she shrank behind Lin Han: "Have you encountered any other strange things?"
Although Lin Han was also afraid, he became more confident when he saw that others were also frightened: "There is one last thing, let's read it together."
He dragged the mouse to the moment when he was confronting the man. Due to the limitations of the surveillance camera's view, he could only see that the door of room 414 was suddenly opened, and a mineral water bottle flew out of the room.
Then, as if encountering resistance in the air, it flew back the same way it came.
The receptionist was so scared that she started crying, but her professionalism kept her going and she called the manager: "Manager, a guest at the hotel has seen a ghost, and the surveillance camera has captured it. Please come over and take a look."
[This is the first time I've seen a ghost on CCTV. Now I get scared when I think about the CCTV in my living room. I wonder if it's also capturing something that shouldn't be seen.]
The best way to eliminate fear is to cover your ears and steal the bell. I just don't look at it. Even if there is a ghost in my house, I won't know it.
[It’s over. After watching this episode, I don’t even dare to stay in a hotel anymore.]
Friends, not all hotels are like this. If you're really scared, I'll buy some talismans and hang them in the hotel to ensure you sleep peacefully.
[I'm dying of laughter. The guy who runs the hotel upstairs has already started trying to make amends.]
The manager on duty realized the seriousness of the matter and ran over quickly.
The first thing he saw when he arrived was the phone in Lin Han's hand. He stepped forward politely and asked, "Sir, are you taking a video?"
The honest Lin Han told him the purpose of holding up his phone: "No, I'm live streaming. This is a famous metaphysics live streaming room. You should ask her to help get rid of the ghosts in the hotel, otherwise people will not dare to come to watch the live streaming in the future."
Seeing his stiff face, Lin Han thought he was scared, and comforted him warmly: "It's okay, with the master's help, the ghost will be driven away. Your hotel can also become famous because of this. When the boss sees how good you are at attracting customers, he may even give you a raise."
The manager could no longer force a perfunctory smile. Such a huge mistake had occurred in the hotel while he was on duty. It was a blessing that the boss didn't fire him.
All I can do now is try my best to make amends to save the hotel's reputation and my job.
After watching the surveillance video, he humbly asked Su Yan: "Master, hello, what is the origin of this ghost? Is there any way to make it go away?"
Su Yan: "Your hotel is located in a remote area. Except for the peak tourist season, some rooms with poor lighting are only opened regularly for cleaning.
These unused rooms are considered by some wandering ghosts to be their territory. The man pretending to be the receptionist today is the owner of the room when no one lives there.
