Sinmonger Chapter 7: The truth…the truth?

As soon as Tian walked to the door and was about to turn the door handle, the phone beside him rang, and the good-looking equipment: Super Restaurant latest chapter

He swoops over and picks up the receiver: "Who?"

At the moment when the call was connected, that is, the second Tianyi picked up the receiver, he happened to hear the snap of hanging up from the receiver, so when he blurted out the word "who", he responded to him Only the busy tone beeps.

This is a very strange thing, it seems that this "1408" room consciously does not let Tianyi go near the door.

Dong dong dong, the knock on the door suddenly sounded again.

Tian Yi's thoughts were pulled back again. He walked over, turned the door handle, and the door opened smoothly. It was the same doorman Xu before, but his expression was rather strange.

"Um...Sir, I'm really sorry to bother you. I have something to trouble you. Good-looking Weapon: The latest chapter of the Humanoid Universe." The door boy looked at Tian Yi with his strange eyes. room behind.

Tian Yi replied: "Does what you want to say have something to do with this room?"

The door boy Xu's expression changed, as if he had been told, his eyes rolled half a circle, and Tianyi could see through his nostrils that this guy was making up a lie.

"It's like this...Sir, when you opened the room before, Lucy at the front desk made a little omission in her work, she shouldn't have given you the key to this room. Because...well...this room There are some minor issues, that is... you know, the electrical wiring, water leaks, etc. need to be repaired, so... this place should be temporarily unavailable for guests.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Could you please change a room? We can arrange a room on the ninth floor with the same layout as here. "

Tianyi heard him finish his words hesitantly, and showed a smile. This is not a sneer, but he really thinks this kid is funny. Even if the book of hearts is not used, this kind of lie that is made up is too easy to expose.

Tian Yi took a half step back, glanced around the room, and replied, "Why didn't Lucy from the front desk call me and tell me?"

The door boy replied, "Ah...that's right. The manager thinks it's better to tell you face-to-face, and I'm really sorry."

"Was the lady at the front desk still there when you came up?"

"Of course, she's here, and the manager told me to come up in front of her."

"Really..." Tian paused for a while: "Strange, I called the front desk just now, but no one answered. Could it be a line problem?"

The doorman was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Ah, yes! You see, this room really has a lot of máo diseases that need to be repaired, so please..."

Tian Yixin said: You are quite able to follow my words and write down. Other book friends are reading: Zero Makes Double Blades.

On the surface, Tianyi still had a standard decadent look, he couldn't see his emotions, he couldn't guess his thoughts: "Okay, I'll go down with you after taking the luggage. You wait here."

"Thank you, sir, I'm sorry to trouble you!" If the doorman Xu was granted amnesty, he stood at the door and waited, leaning against the door intentionally or unintentionally, as if he was afraid that if the door was closed, it would never be opened again.

Tian Yi said he was taking luggage, but in fact his luggage consisted of: a wallet with cash and fake documents, a set of clothes that were not yet dry, and a dozen newly bought underwear.

After taking the "luggage", Tianyi returned to the door again: "I don't have to organize my used things, right?"

"Of course not, we will be responsible for putting everything back in place." The door boy replied.

"I wore this bathrobe downstairs." Tian Yi said.

"Okay, please..." The doorman Xu didn't dare to refuse, if he said that the bathrobe had to be kept, maybe he would throw the clothes into the room every day, and sway it with only a pair of kù panties. into the elevator.

Ten minutes later, Tian Yi stayed on the ninth floor again. Doorman Xu's attitude was very good. As soon as Ling Tian came to the door of the room, he handed him the key of room 908. I was very sorry, and he didn't dare to do anything to wake him up. He took the key of 1408 and closed the door for a smoke went downstairs.

Tian Yi used his ability to track the whereabouts of this kid. It seems that he went to the front desk to return the key, and then went to meet someone. According to the perception and positioning of the people in the building and the preliminary observation of the appearance of the building, Tianyi can roughly construct a floor plan of the building in his mind. The room that the doorman Xu went to was on the first floor, not in the Zou area. Maybe he went to the manager to return his life.

Tian Yi didn't pay attention to doorman Xu for too long. His attention quickly returned to room 1408. He could perceive that two people entered that room about fifteen minutes after he left. After about ten minutes of activity inside, the two left, the good-looking weapon: Variant Spirit Zero. It is not surprising that 80% of the women are cleaning workers.

After all the fuss, Tian became more and more concerned about the ending of the weapon just now. He took out the e-book in Room 908, flipped through it, and quickly found the book through the search function. Years of My Haunted Hotel, skip to the last article 1408, and read the part you just read.

Because I have read a lot, it took less than 20 minutes, Tian Yi carefully read the last story. The ending of the book was not unexpected. The protagonist, the author Mike Anselin, left the hotel safely the next day. Although many inexplicable events happened, there were still no ghosts in the book, at least there was no conclusive evidence. Prove the existence of ghosts.

All the bizarre events are interpreted ambiguously as the wind outside the window, the faulty wiring in the room, the mysteries of the hotel manager, and the various psychological cues the author imposes on the readers' minds, etc.

After reading it, Tianyi thought this was actually a rather boring story, but it was well written. The key is that its content is quite authentic, and it is difficult for readers to distinguish which passages are added by the author and which are weird coincidences that really happened.

Put down the e-book and washed his face at Tianyi. At this time, it was past midnight in Paris, but he was still in high spirits. When he was about to pick up this device again, he had a whim and used his ability to perceive again. Check if anyone is upstairs.

As a result, he discovered that at this very moment, there was actually a person in Room 1408.

The person who cleaned the room should have gone in, so the person inside now is the repairman? Tianyi thought: I have already been driven out, why are you still in a hurry to repair it? There are still a lot of vacancies in this hotel, and the room will never be in short supply. Is it necessary to ask a repairman to go to an unused room to repair it in the early morning? Maybe they just don't want to keep the night shift staff idle?

Tianyi can't rule out this possibility. Maybe the hotel management here is really strict. Problems will be solved immediately, and they will be ready 24 hours a day.

But there is also a possibility, which cannot be ruled out, that another person is now living in that room...

Tianyi said to himself: "If the reason for the so-called 'small problems' in the room is made up, then... there is no need for repairs there at all, but why should you leave me and let another person live? Go in? The chocolate just now, this room 908 doesn't have it, and those two phone calls..."

Thinking of this, Tianyi picked up the phone in room 908, pressed a button, and soon someone at the front desk picked up: "Hello, what do you need?" Or the previous female staff member. The voice, which is the Lucy mentioned by the doorman Xu, other book friends are watching: chūn Feng Qiuyue Ruo leisurely.

"Hello, I'm a guest who previously lived in 1408." Tian Yi originally just wanted to see if the phone could be connected normally, but now that it's connected, he thinks it's better to say something.

It took a while for the other party's voice to sound, and the tone was obviously abnormal: "Well...it's you, sir, I'm sorry for what happened before..."

Tian Yi interrupted: "Ah, don't worry, let me ask, have you been on duty tonight, uh... Lucy?"

"Yes sir."

"Well, okay, it's nothing." Tian Yi hung up the phone.

He pondered for a long time and was very curious. He wanted to find out what was going on in this hotel. He knew that there must be some kind of secret behind what he experienced just now. Although it did not seem to be a very important event, it was revealed at this moment. Truth deduction games are certainly a great way to kill time.

Tianyi walked into the bathroom, picked up the hair dryer and started drying the clothes. After doing it for 20 minutes, he was able to wear it temporarily. After he was dressed, he went to the freezer to get a bottle of spirits and took two sips. Of course, he wasn't trying to embolden himself, but to create the illusion of being drunk.

He hid the key in the inner pocket of his clothes, took the wine bottle, and tugged his already messy hairstyle with his hands, then walked out of the room, closed the door, and went straight to the fourteenth floor .

Arriving at the door of 1408, Tianyi put the wine on his hands, spread it on both sides of his neck like perfume, poured a sip of spirits into his mouth, gargled his mouth, and then swallowed it. , love to read in full when the roses are blooming.

Slam the door hard.

Only the sound of something falling to the ground can be heard in the room, and then there is no sound for half a minute.

Tianyi knew that someone was in the room, but the other party didn't make a sound for some reason. Tianyi knocked on the door for the second time. The people in the room walked slowly to the door step by step. After glancing in the cat's eyes, he opened a crack in the door and said, "Who are you? Is there anything?"

Tian Yi leaned on the door with one hand and pushed it open, and opened the door more than half, allowing him to see the man in front of him clearly. A Caucasian man in his forties, his hairline is a bit back, a beer belly, his face is not very good, he is pale, and he looks like he is sweating a lot.

"Eh? Why are you in my room?" A burst of alcohol sprayed on the other person's face: "Who are you?!" Tianyi's eyes widened: "What is your relationship with my wife?!" He stepped forward and grabbed the opponent's neckline.

"What are you doing?!" The man blocked Tianyi with his hand, "Sir, did you go to the wrong room drunk! I'm the only one here!"

"Hiccup...ah?!" Tian Yi tilted his head and pretended to look at the house number, "Oh...ha...haha! I'm sorry, man, I'm sorry." .

The result was pushed out by the other party: "Okay, sir, do you need me to call a waiter to take you back to your room?"

"No... No need... Hehe... I... I can find it myself." Tian Yi staggered back two steps, the man had an unhappy look on his face, and closed the door decisively.

As soon as Tian knew that the other party must be peeping out from behind the door, he bumped a few steps and confirmed that he had left the visible range of the cat's eye on the door before returning to his normal gait.

"This man didn't even open his luggage and put it next to the room. When I knocked on the door, he dropped something on the ground, but just now I probed in and didn't see the object, which means he has already picked it up." Tian Yi muttered: "There are no capable people or transformed people who have undergone battle transformation in this hotel. There are only a group of ordinary people here. What is going on? Why did the hotel staff leave me and let this person go? Check in? Is it someone from the hotel who wanted to frame this man? Or did he take the initiative to ask to stay in 1408 anyway? Is there any secret hidden in that room?"

Tian Yi didn't get much useful information this time, so he took the elevator to the lobby on the first floor, went straight to the front desk, and walked in front of Lucy: "Remember me? Lucy, the savior of the miscellaneous TXT Download."

"Oh! It's you, sir, what can I do for you?" Lucy replied.

Tian Yi said: "About that room, 1408, can you tell me anything?"

Lucy's expression became tense, and she faltered; "That...that room..."

"Hello, sir!" A tall, thin white man came over, with a lot of hair wax and a neat suit, intervening in the conversation: "I'm manager Todd, you should be... "

Tian Yi interrupted: "Just call me Krause." On his fake ID, he used the tea fairy's name, but he didn't dare to copy the emperor's surname, but took a different surname.

"Sir, could you please come to my office and talk," Todd said.

Two minutes later, Tian Yi came to the manager's room, and sat down unceremoniously. As soon as the other party brought the door, Tian Yi said, "Actually, Todd, I don't need any apology. , I'm not angry, I have no problem with the guy who is living in 1408 at the moment, I just want to know, what the **** happened tonight?"

"Well...actually, that's it, that gentleman is a fan of a certain mechanic," Todd said.

At this moment, Tianyi basically knew the answer. He smiled and said, "Brain fan."

Todd shrugged and said euphemistically: "Judging from his current behavior, it is obviously far beyond the scope of ordinary fans." He paused: "What would you like to drink? ?"

"No, you do it yourself."

Todd poured himself a cup of coffee: "Did you know there was a book called My Haunted Inn in Those Years?"

Tian Yio: "Yes, I have read it." He didn't say he just finished reading it.

Todd said: "Then you should also know that the last part of the book is about the 1408 murder room in a Dolphin Hotel in New York?"

"Oh, so it is!" Tian Yi pretended to be suddenly enlightened, as if he had just realized it. He didn't want to be considered a fan of that writer.

Todd said: "But that story is false. There was a hotel in New York called the Dolphin Hotel, but it closed in the last century."

Tian Yio: "So what?"

Todd continued: "You know, the author of that book, Mike Anselin, would always personally go to the hotel rooms written in the book to stay for one night, and then work on the mechanics, but only The story of 1408 alone is not a real experience, because this story was not written by him."

At this moment, in the rainy sky outside the window, there was a timely thunderstorm...

Tian Yiyi; "Oh? Then why?" He was also interested.

Todd said: "You may not know that my haunted hotel in those years was Mike Anselin's last tool and the end of his series of haunted hotel stories." He paused: "In fact , A few years ago, Mike Anselin did come to our hotel. At that time, I was a foreman, and our manager wondered why the writer came to visit. You must know that there have never been any supernatural rumors in this hotel. I didn't even take the initiative to invite the writer. But he came suddenly on a rainy night and specified that he wanted to live in room 1408."

"Perhaps he just came to Paris for a reason, or simply for a trip. Other book friends are watching: The Redemption of the Kingdom of Maple." Tian Yi continued.

"Yeah, that's what I thought at the time." Todd replied, "But the next day, he died in that room with unexplained hypothermia." He took another sip of his coffee. : "You must know that the writer is only middle-aged, has no history of heart disease, has not even exceeded the blood sugar level, and the heating system in the room has not detected any malfunction. His death itself has become the kind of supernatural that he strongly denied during his lifetime. event."

"So... how did that book come to be?"

"It was Mike Anselin's editor who sorted out all the manuscripts he had not published during his lifetime and revised it into a book, but it seemed to be too short. So the editor imitated Mike Anselin Lin's style of writing has taken a long time to carefully create a story, using 1408 as the author who does not believe in ghosts and gods...the last story of his life and career."

Tian Yiyi: "And that editor believes in ghosts and spirits a little bit?"

Todd said: "That's right, sir, so this story is the only one that intentionally changed the city where the hotel is located in the book, and the editor was worried that someone would come to our hotel after reading the weapon and have an accident. ."

Tian Yi smiled and said, "Hehe, what do you think, Mr. Todd?"

Todd said: "I have no personal opinion. Objectively speaking, the room is normal. Although it was empty for a period of time after the deceased was found, there were people entering it in the following years, and it did not happen. Strange events, the guests did not say anything." He sighed: "The gentleman today, I think he is really a crazy fan, he claims to have followed in the footsteps of Mike Anselin, to After going through every hotel room in his writings, I think he must have found it online, or read the editor's blog or something, anyway..."

Tianyi continued Todd's words: "In short, he has a very tough attitude and asks you to do your best to help him stay in 1408, so I was fooled into 908, right?"

"Yes, this is the truth you want."

Tianqi stood up and said, "What, it turns out to be like this, the latest chapter of the new police story."

The two chatted a few more words, and Todd sent Tianyi out of the office.

"Oh, there's one more thing I want to confirm." Tianyi stopped when he passed the front desk, and he said to Lucy, "About eleven o'clock, will you leave for a while?"

Lucy thought for a while: "Yes sir, I'm sorry, I'm the only one at the front desk tonight, did you miss your call?"

Tian Yi said again: "Have you called my room later?"

Lucy replied, "Oh, that phone call, originally we wanted to communicate with you on the phone, but Mr. Todd said it would be better for Wanda to come up and talk to you in person. You already picked up at that time. Yes? I'm so sorry ~IndoMTL.com~ I thought it wasn't connected when I hung up."

Tian Yi smiled and said, "It's nothing, I understand everything."

Solved the mystery, it turned out to be just such a painful thing, Tianyi returned to the room and sneered on the chat: "What are you doing, it turned out to be such a boring thing..."

Unconsciously, he fell asleep, and was speechless that night.

By noon the next day, police cars and ambulances filled the door of the Dolphin Hotel.

A middle-aged man died mysteriously in room 1408 from a heart block. The deceased was a freelancer doing self-guided travel around the world, with no history of heart disease and no signs of violence. The corpse was lying on his back, his face was horrified, his face was pale, and his sweat was soaked in the sweat. He didn't even open his luggage. There was a paper tool on the head cabinet, the only food the coroner found in the deceased's stomach afterwards. , is chocolate.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, when the investigation and evidence collection had come to an end, the man lying on the bed in Room 908 yawned and stretched out to get up, and said listlessly: "It's actually a nightmare, it's disgusting. place."
