Chapter 16: Well definitely see each other again
Chapter 16: Well definitely see each other again
After Wuji Gu got the key in his hand, the two of them flew out of the counter.
And at this time, the footsteps are getting louder and louder, it is actually the chef from the kitchen has come out, with a kitchen knife in his hand, his face is very hideous and gruesome, eerily watching several people.
The crowd are holding their breath, and Wuji Gu different, Wang and other people have not seen the real face of the chef, at this time to see almost scared hands shake.
The next instant the chef fiercely towards the direction of someone fast, the kitchen knife in his hand viciously waved around, the force is extremely heavy, the first fell on the Shi Sun table, accompanied by a loud noise, the kitchen knife is actually directly split the table, the wood pieces splashed around.
Shi Sun's face became pale and looked in the direction of the second floor, but the way has been blocked by the chef robust, he had no choice but to pull his legs and run outside the hotel.
Wang, who was climbing next to the waiter, was also stunned, where he dared to stay here and darted up to the second floor.
Haocang Peng frowned and spoke, "Looks like we got the key and triggered something, crap, gotta get up there quick."
But unfortunately, their way to go happens to be blocked by the chef, no matter what, the process of going will bump into each other, unless sacrificing a person here to stop, it is simply impossible to pass.
"You go up first and let me hold him off here." Haocang Peng made a decisive decision.
"Is this okay?" Wuji Gu said.
"I have props that can temporarily save my life." Haocang Peng said stiffly, "It can still be delayed, you go upstairs as soon as possible to investigate the truth about this place ...... so that we still have a ray of hope."
In what just happened, Haocang Peng noticed that Wuji Gu actually went out of his way to drive Wang away from Shi Sun who was already possessed by an evil spirit, still with a blackface attitude, not caring at all if Wang would instead hold hatred for him ...... He really didn't expect that such an unrequited good guy would really appear in this copy world and still live to this day. The good man really will appear in this copy world, and also live until now.
That's why Haocang Peng felt he could trust Wuji Gu and was willing to stay here to hold others back.
If it was another teammate, or even someone from an organization, Haocang Peng would not have this sense of trust, and who knows if he would have been punked by someone else at once.
"Thanks." Wuji Gu also looked grave, "But, you don't have to do that." With that, he walked over in the direction of the chef.
"What? Wuji Gu?" Haocang Peng hurriedly spoke, "Wait, you should not be impulsive, although I do not know what props you are using to temporarily suppress the killing thoughts of these evil spirits, but this way up there is only a dead end-"
At the end of the sentence, I saw Wuji Gu reach out and pat the chef's arm, his tone was full of familiarity, as if he was talking to some neighbor, "I really thanked you for your help just now, big brother."
The chef, who had been so fierce and fierce as if he was going to cut everyone to death in the next moment, now just nodded and looked at Haocang Peng with a warning in his eyes, then turned around and went back to the kitchen.
Haocang Peng has frozen, "???"
What, this chef is still in cahoots with Wuji Gu?
"Actually, I'm sorry I didn't tell you just now." Wuji Gu spoke with an apologetic tone. Wuji Gu's tone was apologetic, "After all, Shi Sun was there, so who knows if he saw us going to the third floor and would make something to get in the way, so I had already asked the chef brother."
"How in the world did you do that ......"
"Maybe it's because their children play well with me, so they also have a few more good feelings towards me." Wuji Gu said with emotion, "After all, even if they are ghosts, they are still a harmonious and warm family, don't go looking at them with different eyes."
Haocang Peng felt that his view was refreshed, and he felt that Wuji Gu's words were wrong but sounded reasonable.
The two men hurriedly crossed the second floor to the third floor and arrived at the door of their destination room, where Wuji Gu pulled out the key and managed to open the door.
What I saw was a dilapidated room, just like the staff room next to it, with blood splattered everywhere and all the furniture falling to the floor in disarray, apparently there had been some kind of fierce struggle here.
Haocang Peng looked around carefully and saw Wuji Gu over there crouching on the ground, picking up a doll covered in blood.
Around there are many and this doll, like the child carefully prepared things, but these things are now scattered on the ground, all broken, like the family in general.
It can be seen from various details that before something happened, this place should be a cozy family with a small hotel, but until one day, everything was changed.
Wuji Gu couldn't help but squeeze the doll in his hand.
Just then, the door of the innermost room was pushed open, and the old woman holding the child just appeared in the sight of the two.
Her face and neck are constantly dripping blood down, the whole person is like walking from a pool of blood in general, the body also continues to appear new cut out by sharp objects, the image more and more gruesome.
Haocang Peng's face changed, thinking that it was no longer the time to be able to keep a low profile, and took out all his life-preserving props.
The Wuji Gu there rose abruptly and looked fixedly at the old woman's position.
"Please tell me what is going on here." Wuji Gu slowly walked over, and after seeing the room in its entirety, his face did not look good, what with the mission's being thrown out of his mind all of a sudden.
All he wants to know now is who did such an evil deed.
Haocang Peng to this point finally could not help, to him quickly spoke: "According to the part of the information I got before, the old woman in this hotel is extremely dangerous existence, is absolutely can not clash with her head-on, and she is holding the ghost baby is a heartless evil spirit - -"
When it comes to Haocang Peng, he suddenly remembered Wuji Gu and the ghost baby playing happily before, and his words were stuck in his throat.
Maybe he was the only one present who still cared about such things!
The old woman completely ignored Haocang Peng, she looked at Wuji Gu, then sighed and reached out her hand, handing him the ghost baby that had been asleep in her arms for some time quite naturally.
Wuji Gu also skillfully picked up the child, and the two of them moved in unison, leaving Hao Peng dumbfounded.
"You're a good boy." The old woman's voice rang out, seemingly with a bit of appreciation.
Then a gust of wind blew directly over, the two subconsciously closed their eyes, and when they opened again, the figure of the old woman had disappeared, and a piece of paper in the corner was blown out, flying directly toward Wuji Gu side, he reached out to catch.
It was a newspaper, the rest of it had been torn up, only part of it remained, stating that there had been a serial murder in the immediate area, and that residents in the vicinity should be careful, and that the killer most likely had not yet left.
See here, as long as a person can understand over, this hotel in the end what happened.
In fact, the image Wuji Gu saw in Xin Xiao's soul earlier, Shi Sun reflected in the mirror looked perfectly normal, but what was different was that he had an extra hand on his body and was holding a bloodstained sharp weapon.
But the difference is not too obvious, Xin Xiao was also scared by the ghost baby at that time, and did not notice it at once. But when she went back to her room, she became abruptly aware of the incident.
It was just too late, and she died a horrible death at the hands of the evil spirits.
At that time Wuji Gu has already guessed, just because there is no evidence to support, the system will not admit that the task is complete, and now everything has been watered down.
[Main quest: Investigate to find out what really happened in this hotel, completed]
[It turns out that this was once a homely family-run bed and breakfast inn, which often provided relief to homeless vagrants. But once the good intentions but led the wolf into the house, save is a is wanted serial killer.
The family of four was slaughtered and split up, and the daughter-in-law, who was pregnant in July, was raped and killed, and then her belly was cut open and the baby was pulled out. The crying ghost baby triggered a strong spell, and the family of five turned into evil spirits that ate up the murderer.]
Haocang Peng's expression changed, this is really not the same as the information he received, in the information he learned, it was completely due to internal family conflicts that caused the death of everyone. It seemed that he had to be careful after returning to the organization this time.
Wuji Gu look also ugly, he was not expecting this family to encounter before is actually such a cruel thing. Sometimes people are much scarier than ghosts instead.
[Only, the souls of the murderers were likewise transformed into evil spirits and lurked among your ranks.
Now, after killing several people, this evil ghost has broken free and is only waiting to kill the last living person and will be able to transform into the most terrifying of all the evil spirits!]
[Main quest update: Leave the hotel alive].
After the system's voice fell, footsteps sounded from outside the door.
The two turned their heads to see that the one who appeared outside the door was none other than Shi Sun, no, I should say the evil spirit that possessed Shi Sun's body.
At this point Shi Sun's face has been distorted, as if it had fused with another person, holding a blood-stained weapon in his hand, and his clothes have been splattered with blood.
"It seems you already know the truth." Shi Sun smiled coldly, "It's just too late for that."
Wuji Gu opened his mouth, "Wang was killed by you?"
"That's right." Shi Sun smiled, "That guy is stupid, after killing him, you two are no match for me at all, now be a good boy and wait for death."
Haocang Peng subconsciously pulled Wuji Gu back a few steps.
This guy was already such a vicious murderer when he was alive, and now after his death he is probably not an easy guy to deal with.
And the third floor room inside the windows are sealed, want to jump down is impossible, only go out to leave, but he blocked in front, the two of them simply can not leave the space.
Haocang Peng knew that the only option to get out alive at this point was to sell his teammates.
But after looking at Wuji Gu next to him, Haocang Peng did not do that. Although he is not said to be a good man, but also once a variety of newcomers to use to sell their lives, see others to send death does not matter, but ...... him to such a good man, how can be down.
After completing several copies, he thought his conscience had died, but after seeing Wuji Gu, he realized that there were still such rotten people out there.
"Forget it." Haocang Peng sighed, "Wait, I'll hold him off while you go ahead-"
Speaking of which, Haocang Peng felt so familiar, as if he had already said it once when he was downstairs.
Haocang Peng turned his head and saw that the ghostly baby in Wuji Gu's arms had opened its eyes, and its gloomy eyes were extremely gruesome.
Haocang Peng : "......" estimated that this time is not also do not need him on the field, why also a little regretful feeling.
Because of his position, Shi Sun did not even see Wuji Gu holding the ghost baby in his arms, but sneered and walked over step by step, playing with the weapon in his hand.
"The thought of slowly torturing you guys to death like this makes me feel incredibly happy in my heart."
"So what if those people before turned into evil spirits and killed me? As long as they get you guys killed, they are still no match for me."
"It's so ridiculous, obviously a ghost, but still abide by what rules not to kill at will, if it were me, I would have killed all of you on the first day, see who else can stop me then."
Shi Sun at this time is simply pleased to the extreme, the heart of their own words all out, twisted face pulled on a grim smile, the hand of the sharp weapon directly towards the direction of the two cut.
The next instant, he, by Wuji Gu directly pinched the wrist, the knife in the hand actually half a day can not cut down.
Shi Sun was dumbfounded for a moment, but he knew very well how strong he was when he had turned into a ghost. Is he really still a human?
But before he was afraid because the ghost baby and Wuji Gu some strange ability and did not do it, now he has become stronger, simply do not have to fear.
Shi Sun reacted and began to sneer, "After all, you are only a human being, do you really think your strength is better than a ghost?"
He said his face was even more twisted and deformed, and his neck was like a broken one, ready to bite directly in Wuji Gu's direction, when he heard Wuji Gu's voice ring out.
"Up--"
The next moment, the ghost baby in Wuji Gu's arms suddenly sprang to Shi Sun's body, the original good looks at Wuji Gu's side had disappeared, becoming as horrible as when it first appeared, sharp and dense teeth directly biting Shi Sun's neck in front of him.
Such a bite directly off a large piece of flesh, so that the Haocang Peng next to see the scalp tingling.
"Damn it!" Shi Sun did not expect this to happen at all, his eyes were full of crimson color, and his other hand was about to grab the ghost baby on his body violently.
Wuji Gu how could let him get away with it, his body slammed into the past.
If an ordinary person crashed into it, it is estimated that nothing would happen to Shi Sun, but Wuji Gu's force was like being hit by a small car, so Shi Sun, the evil spirit, stumbled, and the moment he stopped moving, the ghost baby had torn several mouthfuls of flesh and blood from his body, and his body's resentment was getting stronger and stronger.
Shi Sun reluctantly wanted to grab the ghost baby on his body to get killed, but at that moment, the figures of several people suddenly emerged around him.
The ghosts in the hotel surfaced one by one, with hideous and horrific appearance, the marks of stitching on their bodies were obvious to the extreme. Not only the old woman, the owner, and the chef couple, but also the three waiters, all innocent passersby killed by the murderer, now all appeared at this time.
"You, what are you trying to do?!" Shi Sun's face steeped in panic, causing his face to become more and more distorted, "Get out of the way!"
These ghosts looked at Shi Sun with an expression full of resentment, how could they let go of the opportunity to take revenge, they directly rushed Shi Sun's body and tore through, a time of miserable screams rang out.
Just listening to the voice that makes people's skin tingle, can fully imagine how much pain this evil ghost, whether in life or after death, is experiencing at this time.
"Let's get out of here." Haocang Peng hurriedly said, worrying that when Shi Sun was completely devoured, they would be the ones bitten to death by these ghosts again.
Wuji Gu nodded, turned his head to look at the ghosts, and went downstairs with Haocang Peng at a fast pace.
"But I really didn't think things would be so easy." Haocang Peng had previously thought he was going to die in nine ways.
In fact, in the copy if not brushed to the ghost of the ghost baby and shopkeeper and other ghosts of good sense, then at the last occasion even if the truth is found, other ghosts will not appear, only to let the player himself and the ghost of the murderer to play escape games.
And if by chance you brush up on the good sense of one or two ghosts, the task will be much easier.
But such as Wuji Gu such a brush with the goodwill of other people's families that is estimated to have never appeared, really instantly make the final level becomes amazingly easy.
Haocang Peng now really thinks about what happened in the copy and thinks what an amazing operation Wuji Gu is.
The two arrived at the entrance of the hotel without incident, and at that moment a road out of the fog in the outside world appeared in front of them.
"I'll say goodbye here too." Haocang Peng said to Wuji Gu, "Actually what I said before is a lie, even if you have met in the copy world, but after leaving, the memory will all become blurred, and will not remember who exactly the person with oneself is."
Although he felt that someone like Wuji Gu should have sensed it long ago, right?
"So that's how it is? ......" Wuji Gu dawned on him, no wonder the first copy of the world's Ren Hui did not contact him even after going out.
Haocang Peng : "......" this is really do not know or acting ah!
Haocang Peng has already given up thinking about this, he hesitated a little, but still took out a note from his pocket and gave it to Wuji Gu , "This is special prop paper that can carry messages out of the copy world, on it is my contact information, if you encounter anything you can find me."
"Okay." Wuji Gu nodded.
"Also, I am actually a person of the organization." Haocang Peng said, "I came to this copy at the beginning, is to kill you to get your skills ...... but in the end did not do it, in the future, no matter what our organization or other people, may have any idea about you, in short, you'd better be careful. "
Although Haocang Peng thought about what had just happened, he felt that those who wanted to target Wuji Gu might be better off worrying about themselves. Wuji Gu is very much alive and well after this one copy.
After these words, Haocang Peng felt relieved and left in a hurry.
Wuji Gu took one last look back at the haunted hotel. At this point in the daylight, it looked as if it was much calmer and more peaceful.
"Goodbye." He muttered, and turned to leave as well.
He was not originally from this copy world, and now that the murderer's matter is solved, the ghosts of this family should be able to live a peaceful life.
And on the third floor, a figure was gazing at the back of Wuji Gu whose figure slowly disappeared at the end of the path.
In the dim light, you can see that it was already a teenager who looked 12 or 13 years old, with a showy appearance that always gives an indefinable sense of weirdness.
This is the ghost baby that has grown in size while gaining strength after tearing Shi Sun apart.
He gazed at Wuji Gu's back and spoke softly, "We will definitely see each other again."
