Chapter 4 Heavy Rain, Detective and Bodyguard
Chapter 4 Heavy Rain, Detective and Bodyguard
Su Ming looked at this smart guy.
I thought this guy is really talented.
Thirty people squeezed into one room.
This is really not something that ordinary people can come up with.
The two receptionists also looked at Dacongming with strange eyes.
boom--
A loud thunder suddenly sounded.
It scared everyone in the hotel.
Soon, the sound of rain began.
In just a few breaths, the drizzle turned into a heavy downpour.
Outside the hotel, it suddenly became a world of rain.
It's not just because of the dark clouds in the sky.
The color of the rain is very dark.
The gray-black rain curtain is lifeless.
It seemed as if it was going to swallow up the entire world.
Su Ming looked at the rain outside.
Just by looking at it, you can feel the despair and sadness filled with the rain.
He had tried it in the game.
Just leave the hotel and walk into the rain.
It will be immediately swallowed by the rain, triggering the death CG.
Therefore, even if the mission does not require it, you must stay in the hotel.
They have to stay here too.
Even if there is danger in the hotel, it is better than facing the strange rainstorm outside.
The players had adapted a little and relaxed a little.
My mood became tense again with the sound of rain.
"This rain is really scary."
"I seemed to see a few figures walking in the rain just now."
"Really? I'm not seeing things!"
"Let's choose a room as soon as possible."
"It's not realistic to have 30 people in one room, but we can have seven or eight people in one room."
"Indeed, if there are eight people in one room, it's just enough for two mahjong tables."
"A normal double room can hold eight people, which is reasonable, right?"
"I feel like a beaver."
The fat otakus and dead otakus surrounding Su Ming became harmonious.
Fat House: "Great! This way we can all live together."
Otaku: "That's right! We are all otakus, and we just happen to live in the same house!"
Su Ming said, "I want to live in room 404."
Upon hearing this room number, both the fat otaku and the dead otaku felt uncomfortable.
Fat House: "Brother, why do you have to live in room 404?"
Otaku: "Yeah! There are so many rooms, why do you have to live in this one?"
Fat House: "I feel like this room number is unlucky."
The person next to him echoed: "Indeed, this room number sounds unlucky."
"When I visited some websites before, this pop-up would appear sometimes. It's really unlucky."
"Brother, why did you have to choose room 404? What does it say?"
"Could it be that, Game House Boss, you have inside information?"
"Boss, could it be that you have obtained the remaining pages of this copy?"
"Holy crap! Is this true? The remaining pages of an extremely difficult dungeon!"
“This is too powerful!”
"If there really are torn pages, then I'll live in Room 404 with the boss!"
……
Su Ming cleared his throat and said, "Do you think I look like someone who can get the torn pages?"
"The fragments of an extremely difficult dungeon, I don't need to say how precious they are!"
"As for why I chose 404, it's simple. I just like challenges."
"With risks comes rewards. We came here just because room 404 is unlucky!"
"If you don't take off, you will die. This is my idea of the game!"
There was silence in the hotel.
All the players looked at Su Ming as if he were a madman.
There was a bit of admiration and shock in their eyes.
Anyone who dares to play like this in a horror game must be a madman who is risking his life.
It would be horrible if a madman like this could survive.
Of course, most of them died very quickly.
Fat otaku: "Excuse me, brother, I don't deserve to live with you." Dead otaku: "Indeed, although I'm called a dead otaku, I don't want to really die!"
"That's crazy. I think it's better to be steady."
"That's right, it's already pretty good to be able to survive."
"No wonder he was the first to enter the hotel just now."
"Very good, keep it up."
"We lack people with courage like you."
"Brother, it's fine if you want to challenge yourself, but can you please stay away from me? I'm afraid of getting splashed with blood."
……
After Su Ming expressed his unique gaming ideas.
Suddenly no one wanted to live with him.
Relying on his own strength, Su Ming took exclusive ownership of double room 404.
The other twenty-nine players have already made up their minds to live in a place with more people.
Twenty-nine players live together in five rooms.
The rooms they chose were 201, 202, and 203 on the second floor.
And 301 and 302 on the third floor.
This is the result of specifically avoiding the fourth floor with the number 4, as well as room numbers with the number 4.
Single rooms and double rooms are actually the same in terms of room size.
It's just that the furniture arrangement inside is different.
The front desk didn't have any objection to the way they stayed in the room.
The male receptionist was very considerate and said, "Please wait a moment. I will go make a few more room cards for these rooms."
"Also, the bedding and toiletries in the room probably aren't enough for so many people."
"We will notify the cleaning lady and ask them to bring down more bedding and toiletries."
At this time, two men wearing raincoats and holding umbrellas walked in from the hotel entrance.
One of them was a middle-aged man wearing round-frame glasses and with sharp eyes, who looked very smart.
The other one was a sturdy man with a strong build who looked like a good fighter.
After the man with glasses came in, he glanced at everyone and said with a grin, "It's raining so hard! This is the kind of awful weather you don't see in ten years!"
"You are students who are here for team building, right? What a coincidence, you have no choice but to stay in the hotel now."
The sturdy man seemed very taciturn. He just came to the front desk and said to the two receptionists, "Double room."
The two receptionists looked a little embarrassed: "Well, I'm sorry, sir, our hotel has been booked by these students for the past few days."
The man with glasses said with an exaggerated expression: "Ah? Is that so?"
"But it's quite difficult to find another hotel in this kind of weather."
"Could you please make some allowance and free up a room for us?"
"Let me introduce myself. My last name is Mo, and I'm a detective. This is my bodyguard, you can call him Aqiang."
"We came to investigate a case nearby, but it suddenly started to rain heavily. We thought we would stay here and leave after the rain stopped."
Is it true that a key plot character has been revealed?
Finally got a chance to learn more.
Someone asked, "Detective Mo, what case are you investigating?"
"Can you tell us about it?"
Detective Mo said, "Since you want to know, I will just briefly tell you. Don't spread it around."
"There is a staff dormitory nearby where several serial murders have occurred. The murderer has not been caught yet. I was invited by the police to assist in the investigation."
Someone asked curiously: "Oh? Did you find any results from the investigation?"
Detective Mo spread his hands and said, "No, there is absolutely no trace of anyone coming in or out."
"If the scene wasn't so horrific and it wasn't something they could have done themselves, we would have suspected it was a serial suicide."
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and said, "Oh, right, the locations where the murders took place are very regular, they are all rooms numbered with 4."
"Although it may sound a bit superstitious, I still suggest that you don't stay in a room with the number 4."
As soon as he finished speaking, the players here breathed a sigh of relief.
Originally, they had not planned to stay in room numbered 4.
Except for Su Ming, they all avoided those rooms when choosing rooms because they thought the number 4 was unlucky.
Moreover, if it is a murder case, although there may be danger to one's life, it is still better than dealing with ghosts, right?
Fat otaku: "Game otaku, are you still going to live in Room 404?"
Otaku: "Since the detective has said so, don't be so stubborn!"
Fat House: "Why don't you just live with us!"
Su Ming rejected their persuasion: "I still plan to live in 404."
The female receptionist also smiled and said, "It's just a room number, there won't be any problem."
"Since all the students have no objection, you two can choose a room."
Seeing Su Ming was so persistent, no one tried to persuade him anymore.
After all, we are not related, so everyone should care more about their own lives.
Bodyguard Aqiang chose room 503 and went to get two room cards.
Detective Mo observed Su Ming carefully, his curiosity growing stronger: "My classmate, you are a very special person."
"If you are interested, why not come to room 503 to drink tea and chat with us."
Su Ming nodded: "There will be opportunities later, Detective Mo."
