Chapter 111

They hurried to the Beika Hotel. Just as Xingchuan and Ming were about to take Nishihara Tadahiko into the elevator, they were suddenly stopped by someone from behind.

"Teacher Hoshinokawa! Please wait a moment!"

Hoshikawa and Akira were in a hurry and didn't want to pay attention to him, but unexpectedly, it was Nishihara Tadahiko who stopped first. Hoshikawa and Akira had no choice but to stop in front of the elevator.

"Great! Teacher Hoshinokawa, it turns out it's really you."

A slightly plump, brown-haired young man trotted towards Xingchuan and Ming. He was wearing a waiter uniform with the hotel logo printed on it, and was obviously an employee working here.

Hoshinokawa is the pen name used by Hoshikawa Kazuaki when he published comics. The person in front of him should be his fan. Brown short hair, brown eyes. Coincidentally, Hoshikawa Kazuaki also felt that this person was somewhat familiar.

"Excuse me, who are you?"

"Excuse me. Mr. Hoshinokawa, you probably don't remember that I once met you in the coffee shop where you were doing your research, and I even received your first portrait painting as a gift!"

The young man looked extremely excited, and his eyes were sparkling when he looked at Xingchuan and Ming.

The coffee shop where the film was shot? This must be Poirot, but why does this sound so familiar?

Xingchuan Heming thought seriously for a while, and finally remembered that the time when he had to give away a portrait painting to every customer in the coffee shop, wasn’t the fan who led the way the guy in front of him?

Thinking of what happened at that time, Xingchuan and Ming are still frightened. Suddenly, they felt a pain in their wrists...

"So it's you. So you work here?"

Hoshikawa Kazuaki looked at the other person's waiter uniform and began to think about what role this person could play in the next script.

"Excuse me, my name is Naoto Matsui, I'm the waiter here, responsible for cleaning the rooms above the eighth floor. Are you staying here too? Do you want me to come over and help clean up now?"

Naoto Matsui is very enthusiastic. It seems that as long as Hoshikawa and Akira say they need something, he will rush upstairs immediately and help clean Hoshikawa and Akira's room from inside to outside.

Xingchuan and Ming suddenly had an idea. If it was a waiter, he should have the key to an unoccupied room, right? After all, room 918, where the bomb was placed, was an empty room.

Hoshikawa Kazuaki looked at Matsui Naoto in front of him, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

However, before Xingchuan and Ming could say anything, Nishihara Tadahiko on the side smiled and refused:

"No need, we are here for other things."

At the same time, I heard Kagino Satoshi's dissatisfied voice urging me:

Xiaoxing, why haven't you arrived yet? We are already 15 minutes late. It's not me you let down, but a real bomb! Do you want to enjoy the fireworks up close? Someone could die!

After being reminded like this, Xingchuan and Ming suddenly came to their senses. They knew that they had more important things to do and there was no need to drag this ordinary waiter into this dangerous situation.

So he smiled apologetically, opened the elevator door, and was about to take Tadahiko Nishihara into the elevator.

Who would have thought that Matsui Naoto suddenly realized and said with an "oh" sound, and said with understanding:

"I see. It's another interview, right? As expected of Mr. Hoshinokawa, you are so hardworking. By the way, Mr. Hoshinokawa, could you please give me an autograph?"

As he spoke, Naoto Matsui also entered the elevator.

The elevator started, and Hoshikawa Kazuaki looked at Matsui Naoto somewhat awkwardly. The other party was looking at him eagerly, and that enthusiasm was really overwhelming.

"Yeah, sure."

Hoshikawa and Ming agreed, and then saw Matsui Naoto skillfully take out a pen from his uniform pocket. Then he paused, took off a protective bag from his neck, opened the bag and was about to take something out.

Xingchuan and Ming saw his actions and were so frightened that they immediately reached out to stop him:

"No, no, no, you don't want me to sign for your Yushou?"

Matsui Naoto paused, smiled, and was about to explain something, but Hoshikawa Kazuaki's fingers had already touched Matsui Naoto's wrist in order to stop him.

However, the next moment, something unexpected happened.

The lights in the elevator seemed to be suddenly affected by something and began to flicker, making a hissing sound.

At the same time, the air conditioner above was suddenly turned up to the maximum, and the cold wind suddenly filled the entire space, making people shiver. With the lights flickering, the narrow elevator immediately became eerie and scary.

Xingchuan and Ming couldn't help but feel fortunate that they didn't fall into complete darkness, so as not to trigger a deeper fear.

At the same time, a strange "clicking" sound came from somewhere, and then the elevator shook violently and unexpectedly dropped the height of half a floor out of thin air.

The feeling of weightlessness was too sudden. The three of them felt empty under their feet without any preparation. The numbness caused by fear went up from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads. Their heads went numb and they broke out in cold sweats in an instant.

The three people in the elevator were startled by this sudden change, and their feet were unsteady, and they stumbled slightly. Xingchuan and Mingchu's hands touched Matsui Naoto's wrist, and naturally separated immediately.

Tadahiko Nishihara was the first to stabilize his body. He immediately reached out and grabbed the arms of the other two people to prevent them from falling and getting into danger.

"Be careful! Grab the elevator handrail!"

When they stood firm again, they found that the elevator had stopped falling and the lights above their heads had returned to normal. Only the air conditioner that had suddenly started was still blowing out cold air.

"Are you all right? Is anyone injured?"

Nishihara Tadahiko immediately asked the two people, but neither of them was in the mood to answer him at that time.

In the quiet and narrow elevator, Hoshikawa Kazuaki and Matsui Naoto stared at each other's eyes blankly, almost losing the ability to think.

At a certain moment when the lights flashed just now, their eyes met for a moment.

However, it was at this moment when they looked at each other that they both saw the strange light emanating from each other's pupils in the gap between the light. At the same time, they also saw their own equally strange eyes in each other's eyes.

For the first time, Hoshikawa Kazuaki realized that his eyes could actually be so eerie green when glowing. And when the light changed, Matsui Naoto in front of him also emitted a strong dark orange light from his pupils.

At this moment, they are the same.
