It was the first time that the villa waiter encountered a guest who kicked down a door. He was only two minutes late when he came up, and the floor was already a mess.
They wanted to cry but had no tears, and begged the two evil gods, "You two, please talk it out nicely."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Xie Chenan was furious at the moment. He grabbed one of the male waiters by the collar and pointed at the wide-open door and shouted angrily, "In the middle of the night, dozens of underage students ran out, and you guys didn't do anything?"
What?
The male waiter was visibly confused for a moment, then subconsciously denied it, "That's impossible. My colleagues and I have been at the front desk, worried that we wouldn't be able to handle the crowd. But no one has left since you entered the room."
"Then tell me, where did all the people in this room go?" Xie Chenan was anxious and angry, and pulled him to check room by room.
When the waiters saw that the room was completely empty, they panicked.
"This... How is this possible? We clearly didn't see anyone leave. Check the surveillance footage immediately!"
The collective disappearance of dozens of students was a serious matter, so the person in charge of the villa quickly rushed over and personally retrieved the surveillance footage for the two to review.
As a result, there was no trace of the students from Class F anywhere in front of or behind the house.
"How come there are check-in records but no travel records? Where did they go..." The person in charge broke out in a sweat. Suddenly, he remembered a recent case in Jiangcheng. His lips trembled and his voice trembled. "They disappeared without a trace. This isn't the first time it's happened. A similar incident happened at Jiangcheng Shipping Company a month ago. Could it be that your classmates have also encountered the same thing..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold wind blew from somewhere, sending chills down everyone's spines.
Xie Chenan felt a chill on his back and subconsciously looked at the girl beside him. "There's no surveillance footage and no leads on the person. Should we call the police?"
Ye Lan frowned, remembering the details of the missing shipping company workers that he had discussed with President Xu during the day.
She casually picked up the bag she had brought from the room, rubbed a little of the scent on it between her fingertips, and her expression immediately turned even colder. "It's too late. Their vitality is very weak."
If it’s any later, we’ll just have to wait for the bodies to be collected.
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
The people in the villa didn't understand how she made her assertion, but Xie Chenan believed in her judgment 100%.
His heart sank, and his voice became a little hoarse. "Then do you have a way to find them?"
"Yes." Ye Lan didn't keep the secret and directly opened the page on his phone, clicked on the text message, and quickly typed a word into it.
money.
The glaring red border completely disappeared the moment the words appeared, revealing a pair of hands hidden in the darkness.
There is a line of address on it.
"Did they go here?" Xie Chenan felt dizzy after just one look and quickly looked away.
"Yeah." Ye Lan glanced at it, memorized the words, put the phone in his pocket, grabbed Xie Chenan by the back of his collar and walked out.
There are too many people involved this time, and she needs a logistics support.
Soon, the roar of an engine was heard outside the villa.
When the person in charge ran out to try to stop it, only the scarlet taillights were left drifting on the mountain road. He was so anxious that he jumped up and down, "Why did you kill two people after you finally saved them? Call the police, call the police!"
On the other side, a sports car was speeding on the mountain road.
Xie Chenan held the handrail tightly. This time his mind was not confused by resentment, but by the dizziness from the shaking.
When we got to the place, he vomited as soon as he got out of the car.
After vomiting, the depressed feeling in my chest seemed to dissipate, and my mind became much clearer than before.
"You were previously affected by resentment and were easily irritable and irritable. Now you can go in."
Ye Lan got out of the car and threw him a bottle of mineral water, explaining something.
After drinking the water, Xie Chenan calmed down and felt that his mood was not right just now. It was the first time he realized that resentment could have such a big impact.
He looked up and saw a half-finished commercial building not far away. The exterior glass on the lower floors looked decent, but the upper floors were made of only steel bars and concrete, making it look like an unfinished building.
But in the dim light, you can vaguely see the lights coming from inside the building, and there is a sign on the door of a shop on the first floor.
"Exploration House..." Xie Chenan finally recognized the name of the shop through a thin layer of mist. After a few seconds of reaction, his expression suddenly changed, "Isn't this the haunted house we talked about during the day?!"
Riverside, fog, unfinished buildings.
They all match up!
Ye Lan recognized him at first sight, so he was not surprised. Noticing the slightly strong resentment in him, he casually drew a talisman between the boy's eyebrows to keep his mind clear, and then took a step forward.
"Let's go."
"Oh oh." Xie Chenan followed closely behind, alert to the eerie and terrifying surroundings. Even though he was 1.8 meters tall, he couldn't help but feel scared and didn't dare to leave the girl's side for even a step.
Although the scarlet Adventure House sign was lit, there was no one at the front desk.
"Why does it smell so bad here? It doesn't look like anyone has opened a shop." Xie Chenan covered his mouth and nose as soon as he came in. He felt uncomfortable because the air was not flowing.
Ye Lan walked forward calmly, saying in a light voice, "Because the resentment here is so strong that it has distorted the space, we've stepped into another dimension since we entered. It should be several years since the project was abandoned."
"!!!" Xie Chenan's eyes widened when he heard the words, and he stopped in his tracks in shock. However, he didn't know how to react to her nonchalant tone. His face twisted for a long time before he gritted his teeth and quickly caught up as if giving up.
In order to ease the tension, he also began to try to analyze the surrounding environment.
"This place must have been left unfinished. To avoid losing too much money, the developer started recruiting investors against their conscience. The shops on the first floor have basically been renovated and it looks like they've been operating for a while."
"But I guess something must have happened later, and it happened in a hurry. Look at the tea table over there, there's an open bucket of instant noodles. It's obvious that the owner was in a hurry to go out and didn't have time to eat it."
Like a scout, he followed the clues all the way to the stairs and found a new set of footprints.
"I recognize the pattern on the sole of this shoe. It's Luo Junpeng's new limited edition sneakers. They're going upstairs!"
Ye Lan walked over and glanced down, only to find that the footprints were messy and disorderly. He frowned slightly, then turned around and went upstairs.
"Hey, wait for me."
Before Xie Chenan finished analyzing how many people there were, he turned around and couldn't see her anymore. He was so scared that he quickly ran after her.
The second floor also has well-decorated shops, but each shop here has its doors closed and locked.
Xie Chenan took a closer look at a few of the shops and discovered that they were still covered with black cloth. "It's so mysterious. What kind of treasures are they selling on the second floor..."
He muttered as he looked up at Ye Lan walking to a gate. He couldn't help but explain, "It's probably been in disrepair for a long time and there's nothing inside. If you want to get in, wait for me to find a pair of pliers to pry it open..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard a loud noise beside him, and then a hand came out of the gate, grabbed his arm, and pulled him in with force.
