Chapter 650 My Useless Husband with a Junior High School Diploma (19)
By late night, most of the guests in the Moonlight Hotel had fallen asleep.
Perhaps because of the change in the sleeping environment, even if they fell asleep, it was not a good dream. The guests all had bloody nightmares. After waking up from the nightmare, they could not calm down for a long time.
Yan Xi, the director, quickly got up from the bed, turned on the light, and sat at the desk. While he still remembered the scene in the dream, he quickly took a pen and wrote it down in the notebook.
He wrote for a long time until the dream became blurred with time. He scratched his hair irritably and had to put down the pen.
He picked up the notebook and flipped forward. The contents of dozens of pages were all illogical dreams.
He started having these strange dreams many years ago, and these dreams were filled with the color of blood at the end. He would fall into a state of anxiety after waking up.
It is not strange for a person to have dreams, but if a person often has the same dream, then there must be a problem!
In the dreams he recorded, the words "guest room", "corridor", "back kitchen" and "blood" were mentioned. When he saw the trial operation of Moonlight Hotel on the Internet, he inexplicably submitted the information. Unexpectedly, the Moonlight Hotel actually chose him.
Yan Xi looked up the history of the Moonlight Hotel. This hotel has been built for nearly 60 years, but two major murders have occurred in succession.
The first murder was 50 years ago, six people died in the Moonlight Hotel, and the murderer has not been found yet.
The second murder occurred 25 years ago, and six people died in the Moonlight Hotel. So far, there is no conclusion on who the murderer is.
Therefore, some people speculated whether there was some evil organization holding some evil rituals, which attracted something bad.
I heard that the previous owner of the Moonlight Hotel tried to save the hotel's business and even invited some masters to the hotel to "exorcise demons", but it seemed to have no effect. The business of the Moonlight Hotel did not improve at all, and the owner had to give up here.
It is said that before the Gu family took over, the Moonlight Hotel belonged to a businessman named Pei, but the Pei family disappeared ten years ago, and Yanxi couldn't find out about the situation.
Yanxi felt that if he could add some spice to the story of the Moonlight Hotel and make a film, his career might be able to usher in a second spring.
He entered the industry at the age of 20, and a short film he shot in college attracted a lot of praise and won many awards. People in the circle said he was a young genius, but who would have thought that in just five years, he had become an inconspicuous mediocre person in the circle.
Yanxi urgently needs a blockbuster work to prove his worth.
He checked the time. It was 11:30 pm. There was no movement outside. During the day, he wanted to go around every corner of the hotel, hoping to take some useful photos.
But during the day, there were always staff members reminding him that there were some places he couldn't go, so his movements were greatly restricted.
Now that everyone was asleep, there should be no problem.
Yanxi picked up the camera and walked out of the room decisively. Although the lights were still on in the corridor, perhaps because there were not many people in this big hotel, it made people feel particularly empty and deserted.
He was also brave. In order to take better photos, he did not take the elevator, but walked up the stairs to each floor.
After going down the fourth floor, there were no lights in the corridor. Only a few emergency lights on the wall emitted a faint green light, which added a bit of gloom to the quiet environment.
Yanxi had a strange illusion that this dim and cold corridor seemed to have appeared in his dream.
He swallowed his saliva and suddenly lost the courage to move forward. Cold sweat broke out on his back. He was about to go back, but when he turned around, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. He was startled.
The young and handsome man smiled, "Mr. Yan, good evening."
Yan Xi paused for a long time, calmed down, and recognized that the person in front of him was one of the twin waiters in the hotel. He couldn't tell whether it was the older brother or the younger brother, so he asked: "Who are you?"
"I'm Mu An." Mu An asked politely: "Mr. Yan, why are you out so late? Is there anything?"
Yan Xi couldn't say that he was looking for traces of a murder in the hotel, so he could only lie, "I woke up hungry in the middle of the night and wanted to find something to eat, but I didn't know where the kitchen was, so I got lost."
"So that's the case. It was our mistake that we didn't take care of your needs in time. Mr. Yan, the kitchen is on the first floor, I'll take you there."
Yan Xi said quickly: "No, no, I can go there by myself."
"Mr. Yan, please don't be afraid to trouble me. You are a distinguished guest in my branch hotel. It is our responsibility to take good care of you. Besides, if the leader knows that I didn't take good care of the guests, my performance will be deducted."
Yan Xi didn't know how to refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and follow Mu An to the kitchen on the first floor.
Before entering the kitchen, he could hear the sound of a kitchen knife falling on a chopping board. He didn't know what the person inside was chopping, but the sound of bones breaking was quite loud.
Mu An said: "Chef Zhou goes to bed very late every day. He must be preparing ingredients for tomorrow."
The road was dark, with only a little light coming from the kitchen. This light should have made people feel particularly at ease, but in the gray surroundings, it inexplicably made people feel strange and unusually uneasy.
The scene of the blood-stained kitchen in the nightmare kept flashing back in front of Yan Xi's eyes.
He paused slightly.
Mu An asked in a friendly manner: "Mr. Yan, are you too hungry to walk? Do you need me to help you?"
Yan Xi came to his senses and said: "No, no, I just feel a little tired. I'd better go back and rest."
Just at this moment, another tall, thin, and extremely energetic person walked over from the aisle.
Yanxi recognized that this man was Manager Bai's husband, and his name seemed to be Pei Yan.
Pei Yan was wearing casual home clothes and slippers. He ignored the two people standing at the door and walked briskly into the kitchen.
After a while, his clean voice was heard, "Where is my Yaoyao's midnight snack?"
Chef Zhou's voice was full of energy, "It's stewing in there, it should be ready soon, you can go and have a look!"
Pei Yan's footsteps were urgent and fast, he must have been impatient to run in.
Mu An said to Yanxi: "Mr. Yan, you are not afraid to go in, are you?"
