Chapter 340: Desert Forest 26
With an attitude of not giving up, Su Qingyun went over to check the gate.
The gate was made of iron, and it was tightly closed at this moment, without a single gap.
Su Qingyun thought it was a good thing that Xu Xinghe gave her some drinking water and cooked potatoes when they separated, otherwise she and Ye Jian would be trapped here and would have to find something to eat first.
Now that they had enough, Su Qingyun was not panicking at all. According to past experience, all they needed to do now was to search this hotel and find clues to get out.
They first went to the restaurant at the back of the first floor.
In the "Wilderness Inn" copy, there are six tables in the restaurant behind the hall, but there are only two here, and they are filthy. The stench of rotten food mixed with dust forms a very unpleasant smell.
Yoruichi used his spear to clear the dishes on the dining table, then walked away because there were no useful clues on the table.
They went to the lounge at the back of the restaurant.
Unlike the lounge in the "Wilderness Inn" copy, the red leather sofa here has lost its color. The red has faded as if it had been washed, leaving only a hint of pink.
There was an old newspaper where Su Qingyun had found it before. Su Qingyun picked it up and flipped through it. The type on the old newspaper was already blurred and the content was completely unclear.
Su Qingyun threw the newspaper on the ground. She looked through it again in the rest area, but still found no useful information.
Behind the lounge is the kitchen.
Su Qingyun looked at the time. They set out from the safe house at eight o'clock in the evening and separated at nine twenty minutes when they met at the junction of blocks 33 and 44.
It's nine fifty-three now.
This was exactly the time when Su Qingyun entered the wilderness hotel.
Su Qingyun remembered that one of the rules of "Wilderness Hotel" was to return to the room before ten o'clock.
Do they still need to follow this rule now?
Su Qingyun was thinking when something suddenly rolled down the stairs next to the lounge.
This thing rolled very slowly, one by one, making the sound of a heavy object rolling down the stairs.
“Boom.”
“Boom.”
“Boom.”
Ye Yi quickly stepped forward to protect Su Qingyun. He frowned and stared at the dark stairs.
Ye Jian also took the gun from his body and loaded it with two clicks.
“Boom.”
“Boom.”
“Boom.”
The rolling sound continued, getting closer and closer, but the stairwell was still dark, even though Ye Jian adjusted his headlamp to face the darkness.
“Boom.”
Finally the thing rolled to the bottom step, and then it made a different sound.
The sound was like grinding wheels rubbing against each other, hoarse and harsh.
"Gululu, gurulu."
Finally, it revealed its true appearance because it stopped at Ye Jian's feet.
It was a marble, made of glass, about the size of a human head.
Su Qingyun could clearly see the three-color flower in the glass marble.
The colors of the tricolor flower are red, yellow and blue.
"Is there anyone up there?" Ye Jian took off his headlamp and held it in his hand. He first shone it on the glass ball, and then on the top of the stairs.
Nothing.
Ye Jian put the lamp back in its place and straightened the brim of his hat.
Su Qingyun and Xu Xinghe were both wearing military bulletproof helmets brought by Xu Xinghe. The hat was made of leather and had two inlay holes on the top. Special headlamps could be placed inside, and they were magnetic.
The headlamp was not very bright, but it could see two to three meters away, which was more than enough for Su Qingyun and Xu Xinghe to find the red cross.
But at this moment, the light seemed to be a little lacking in power.
Su Qingyun took out a high-intensity flashlight from her cloth bag, held it up and turned it on towards the stairs.
Under the influence of the strong light, the three people finally saw the situation on the stairs clearly.
There is nothing but yellow sand all over the ground.
Su Qingyun looked at the time, it was nine fifty-four in the evening.
"Do you want to go up?" Su Qingyun asked Ye Jian.
Just as Su Qingyun turned her head to ask Ye Jian, she suddenly saw something whizzing past on the stairs out of the corner of her eye.
When Su Qingyun looked again, she saw nothing.
She asked Ye Jian, "Did you see anything passing by just now?"
Ye Jian nodded and said, "It seems to be a person, a person wearing black clothes."
Su Qingyun turned to Ye Yi. She wanted to confirm with Ye Yi.
Ye Yi has his own vision in the dark, he doesn't need a light source.
Ye nodded slightly and said two words: woman.
In an abandoned ancient city that seemed to have become a ghost town, the three of them randomly found a hotel and checked in.
This hotel is almost identical to a dungeon they had previously cleared.
This in itself is very strange.
Now something even more bizarre happened. There was a woman in black clothes on the second floor of the hotel where there was no sign of life.
Su Qingyun asked Ye Jian again, "Should we go up?"
"There's nothing else we can do now if we don't go up," Ye Jian replied.
This is a fact, and they have limited time to find a way out as soon as possible.
Su Qingyun raised a high-intensity flashlight and went upstairs first.
The stairs were not strong and made a creaking sound with every step, as if they would collapse at any time.
This feeling is very similar to the low wooden ladder that Su Qingyun climbed under "Gerton Manor".
But the stairs under my feet are not made of wood but cement, so how could it make such a sound?
The three of them went upstairs, but they didn't see the woman in black.
But they saw a corridor exactly like the one in "Wilderness Hotel".
201 to 208, eight rooms.
The layout is exactly the same as that of "Wilderness Hotel".
Su Qingyun looked at the time, it was nine fifty-five in the evening.
Ye Jian reached out and pushed open the first room 201 on the outside.
Su Qingyun remembered that this room was occupied by a man named Fang Yuan in "Wilderness Inn".
When I pushed the door open, there was no sign of anyone living inside.
Shining the flashlight, the room was a mess and the quilt on the bed was covered in dirt.
Ye Jian took Su Qingyun and walked inside. He pushed open 202 and then 203.
Su Qingyun lived in room 203 in "Wilderness Hotel".
As the door opened, a familiar feeling hit me.
Under the illumination of the strong flashlight, Su Qingyun actually saw the mirror on the dressing table in the corner.
Ye Jian also saw the mirror.
They saw a swaying figure in the mirror.
Su Qingyun and Ye Jian both stepped back at the same time. Even though they were battle-hardened, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when they saw the swaying figure in the mirror.
At this time, the sound of marbles falling was heard again on the stairs.
“Boom.”
“Boom.”
“Boom.”
Su Qingyun and Ye Jian were ready to turn back.
Ye Yi pushed them into Room 203 and closed the door.
Yoruichi, "The weird time is coming."
Su Qingyun looked at the time, it was nine fifty-nine in the evening.
The weird time is indeed coming.
