I Wasn’t Born Lucky

Chapter 145:

"what--"

The late night in the hotel was supposed to be extremely peaceful and peaceful, but it was broken by a sad scream.

"Is there anyone? Here, someone is dead here!"

It was a woman who screamed. In fact, if there were reincarnations present, she would find that she was Lin Ruo in the opening CG.

She had just taken a shower, steamed all over her body, wrapped in a bathrobe, but now she was sitting in the lobby on the first floor, unable to say anything.

"What's the matter? What's the name of it being so late, we can get up early to climb the mountain tomorrow."

Following Lin Ruo's scream, several plot characters walked out of the room on the first floor one after another. Mr. Hu yawned and wore his silk pajamas, muttering dissatisfiedly.

But the next second, his eyes widened, his sleepiness disappeared, and he squeezed out of his throat: "Ahhhhhhhhhh! Someone! Call the police!"

Along with the panic of these characters in the plot, from the second and third floors, there were also relieved reincarnations appearing.

But there are still some people who are unwilling to come out, because who doesn't know whether the evil spirit will continue after killing the first person, but most of the reincarnations chose to come down to check the clues.

The young man who was the first to arrive at the scene and was the closest to the stairs on the second floor, his name was Jiang Linwen. He took a breath after seeing the picture in the hall first, and was wrapped in layers by the people who rushed over.

A corpse was thrown in the middle of the hall. The whole body was in large font, it was Luo Su. His face still had an expression of astonishment, as if it was someone he did not expect to kill him, and the whole person was gone. Breathing, stiff.

The back of his head landed on the ground, and a spatter of blood spattered, staining the hotel floor.

There was only a blood hole left in Luo Su's nose, as if there was something hidden inside, peeping at everyone.

"His body was thrown down from upstairs." Jiang Linwen said first, his eyes swept across the crowd one by one, remembering everyone's expressions in his heart, "Miss, you are number one. Found?"

Under his gaze, Lin Ruo swallowed, she resisted the urge to vomit: "Yes, yeah... I can't sleep, I want to get some air, go out and wait to watch the sunrise, but just passed by. I saw this in the hall."

"So..." Jiang Linwen said, "Have you heard anything?"

The next sentence he asked was everyone.

But most people chose to be silent, and only a few people answered this question:

"I only heard slight footsteps. A quarter of an hour ago, it stopped at the door of a certain room, and then there was no sound."

"I didn't hear anything, I didn't dare to look, I just dared to listen to the sound, it passed my door."

Jiang Linwen asked, "What's the sound of footsteps? It's tall, short, fat and thin, no clue?"

Those who answered the question glanced at him and shook their heads collectively: "No."

Even if they did, they wouldn't say it out—if evil spirits were hidden among these people, wouldn't it mean they would throw themselves into the trap if they said it?

Only one of the girls was small and looked very inconspicuous. She shrank her neck: "I heard it. The sound seems to be...a person walking on tiptoe."

"I practice ballet on weekdays, that's the sound of walking."

"Xiao Tu!" The man next to the girl immediately covered her mouth and apologized in a panic, "I'm sorry, my sister is talking nonsense, she is young and not sensible."

In the hallway late at night, evil spirits walking on tiptoes...

The expressions of the people present were different, but Jiang Linwen imagined the scene at that time, and felt that his throat was dry.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Hu immediately took out his cell phone: "It is not our business to catch the murderer. We will call the police directly. I will find the driver and we will leave overnight..."

Lin Ruo lowered his head and said nothing.

Jiang Linwen didn't stop him. He watched Mr. Hu press the call button and put the phone to his ear, but then Mr. Hu put down the phone again: "Damn, there is no signal in this mountain!"

This is not surprising. Although the mobile phone of the plot character can get through the number in the world, once this happens, the dungeon world often chooses to close all contact methods.

In other words, no matter what Mr. Hu wants to leave, he will not be able to connect with the outside world until Samsara has completed his mission.

"Mr. Hu, where is our driver? How about just drive away?" Peng Yue suggested, receiving the support of the bald man.

But Mr. Hu shook his head and said: "Let him go back a long time ago. He said that he would come to pick us up three days later. There is no car now."

The mountain road is rugged and there is no car. Just walking on two legs, I am afraid that it may not be possible to walk on for several days.

"What about the boss, why is there no boss for such a big thing?!" Peng Yue asked in a low voice, "He should have a way to contact the outside world..."

Everyone also followed, and they didn't see the shadow of the hotel owner. They didn't even know where the owner lived. After dinner, he seemed to have disappeared.

Obviously weird.

There should be other secrets in this hotel, but Jiang Linwen doesn't think the boss is an evil spirit because he is too obvious.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps from the entrance of the hotel, and they were gradually approaching.

It was still late at night outside the hotel, and the sky was dark.

In the past, the stars on this mountain would be very clear, but it was not like that on Lingxi Mountain. It was black like a piece of velvet, shrouded in the whole world, and no one could tell who would walk in from the dark outside.

Jiang Linwen stepped back calmly, letting Mr. Hu and others stand in front of him.

The footsteps were getting closer, and a teenager in a trench coat entered their field of vision.

Coincidentally, due to the conversation between this person and President Hu during dinner, most of the people present really knew him.

Xiao Li opened the door from outside the hotel, and in the blink of an eye, he saw a dark crowd looking at him waiting in a tight array. He was surprised to hold the purple umbrella that was about to land, and blinked: "...so many people. "

Zheng Yi in the crowd: "...Herkery, what are you doing out so late?"

He asked the question everyone wanted to ask.

Xiao Li's eyes fell on the umbrella in his hand.

He couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and the evil spirit who had been waiting didn't move. He turned the window and went out to the east, ready to do a side mission-but who knows how far he has been before he was lost. Lost in the Lingxi Mountain in the dark, unable to distinguish the north, south, east, and west. In the end, the little black cat took the place of the dog and led him back.

But if you tell the truth, you must spend some time explaining the side tasks.

Xiao Li finally chose an excuse: "I was going to the east to watch the sunrise, but I didn't find a good place on the way, so I came back."

Zheng Yi immediately turned his gaze to Lin Ruo, who also said before that he would go out to watch the sunrise.

At this moment, Jiang Linwen asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing with your umbrella when you go out? It's not raining now."

Xiao Li: "I guess there should be rain tomorrow, just in case, I will bring it."

Jiang Linwen, who was opposite him, frowned.

If it’s a plot character who wants to go out to watch the sunrise, it’s okay. After all, they don’t know about the existence of ghosts. The scenery of Lingxi Mountain is good, but this person named Herkeri is a reincarnation, so how can he go out late at night...

Could it be that he is that evil spirit?

Jiang Linwen's eyes flickered, and he chose to skip this topic, waiting for more clues before making inferences.

Zheng Yi walked to Xiao Li and arched Xiao Li with his elbow: "Look, the first victim."

Xiao Li looked down at Luo Su's corpse on the ground, and listened to Zheng Yi's retelling of what had just happened to him. When he heard what the little girl said, his expression moved slightly, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he glanced at the crowd—Shen Mirage was not inside.

Ye Zeqing walked to the corpse, knelt down, and made a mark in the void with his hands.

"What are you doing?" Mr. Hu asked.

Ye Zeqing said: "My family has some understanding of psychic affairs. I will try to summon his soul and ask for some clues."

Mr. Hu sneered and said, "What mess, are you filming? Isn't this funny?"

As soon as he said this, Jiang Linwen's eyes lit up and he whispered, "Ye Family...?"

Among the domestic reincarnations, the Ye Family's reputation is also considered to be the best. Everyone wants to learn the art of ghosting, but only the Ye Family has gone the farthest on this road due to family physique.

The most famous Ye family now besides Big Brother Ye is Yan Luo.

According to the news in the forum, it seems that he often queues copies with Moriarty and is a good friend of each other.

Ye Zeqing dipped a little Luo Su's blood on the ground, drew a reduced version of the magic circle, and said silently: "Those who have passed away, the soul returns--"

There was an invisible wind blowing across the hotel lobby. The weird wind and the lying corpse made Mr. Hu uneasy, and he sat directly on the chair beside him.

But just when the gust of wind was about to gather on Luo Su, it seemed to be stopped by some kind of spiritual force.

"Failed." Ye Zeqing clapped his hands, "His soul was swallowed by evil spirits, and there was no way to summon him."

"This is also inevitable."

Jiang Linwen comforted.

Mr. Hu tasted a different meaning from their words: "Who are you on earth? It doesn't seem to be a tourist? I warn you--"

Jiang Linwen interrupted him: "We are special personnel. We came to solve the problem after receiving the news that there was a supernatural incident here. You just ran into this incident because of bad luck. I hope you can cooperate with us to solve it. It is so happy for everyone."

Mr. Hu was dumbfounded: "What is it?! Are you tricking a three-year-old child?"

Jiang Linwen frowned, and was about to let President Hu accept the truth, but suddenly heard a voice that made him froze on the spot.

It was a erratic laughter that struck everyone's ears like a thunder:

"Hee hee hee hee hee hee……"

"Someone is here again... looking for death, hehehe."
