Chapter 199 Response
I don’t know if the front desk downstairs has noticed the situation here.
Fortunately, the sounds in the corridor can be heard clearly. The tenants in each room have closed their doors tightly, and no one came out to join in the fun.
The current situation in society is basically that it does not concern oneself and stays out of the way.
Therefore, when a mess occurs, there are only a few people who are willing to come out to join in the fun.
I listened carefully to the movement outside and heard the sound of the elevator running down.
It can be basically confirmed that the people at the front desk have discovered the situation here.
I whispered in Lin Hualong’s ear, "The elevator has gone down. It won’t be long before the people at the front desk will come up. When they see us investigating the situation here, I’m afraid it will be difficult to explain."
Lin Hualong nodded at me and threw a few talisman papers into the room.
Of course, they were thrown in a particularly hidden corner, and it was impossible to find them at first glance.
The two of us turned off the flashlights, walked to the position near the door, and pretended to be wrestling.
The elevator whirred and started running again, as if it was coming up.
When the front desk staff came over, they found that we were still fighting in the room.
Perhaps because he was guilty, he did not dare to turn on the flashlight, and called us to come out quickly.
"This room is reserved by someone else, and a deposit for a year has been paid."
He also threatened us that no one could come in here.
If we do this again, we will directly refund the room fee and let us leave the hotel.
Lin Hualong did not show any panic.
He turned his head and stared at the front desk fiercely, saying impatiently.
"I'm going back to my room to sleep, and I still have to tell you, why didn't I insert the room card just now, and the door opened directly?"
The front desk also realized a problem, it's not reasonable to talk to a drunkard.
It's not reasonable to reason, so his attitude at this moment is not as cold and hard as before.
He spoke to the two of us politely.
"You two have entered the wrong room. This is another guest's room. The guest went out and seemed to have not closed the door properly."
I nodded randomly, got Lin Hualong up from the ground, waved my fist, and said in a fierce manner.
"I tell you, be careful, or I will smash your head today."
Lin Hualong looked unconvinced, and the front desk was afraid that we would fight.
But I didn't expect that we would support each other and stumble to the other side.
Walking to the door of our room, Lin Hualong pointed to the room number with his finger.
"Is this the room for us?"
I deliberately moved forward and almost stuck to the door number.
Then I nodded randomly and took out the room card from my pocket.
It seems that we went back to the room obediently, and the front desk was relieved.
It was very considerate to close the door for us.
After closing the door, we were also relieved.
Lin Hualong checked the talisman paper he left behind, and there was no change on it.
This also means that no one has come into the room.
It seems that the two of us are still safe.
"Damn it, I knew that Jinsuocheng had a big layout, but I didn't expect that even such an ordinary hotel would have their back-up plan."
I don't quite understand what Lin Hualong is talking about?
After all, I don't know the whole picture of the matter. To be honest, neither Lin Hualong nor Wang Jiuye told me everything.
Even including the matter of the last bus on Route 14, I only have a vague understanding, and many things are just my own guesses.
"The next thing about this hotel is not something we two can handle. I will find a way to contact the man in the suit. These things must be handled by them, otherwise it will be like hitting a rock with an egg if we rely on the two of us alone."
I nodded in agreement, and I was very worried that Lin Hualong would not recognize the reality.
If he doesn't recognize the reality, thinks he can take on the responsibility, and insists on hitting a rock with an egg, I don't want to die with him.
Even if he saved my life? I don't want to.
But without Lin Hualong, I was fighting the last bus of Route 14 by myself, and the possibility of survival was basically zero.
But I couldn't ignore Lin Hualong, after all, he was still a lifesaver to me.
I just didn't know if I would meet the workers of the steel mill when I went out tomorrow night.
I had no grudges against the spirits transformed by those workers, why did they make things difficult for me?
The water spirits I met tonight were really scary. If I hadn't run fast and there was such a magical place as the toilet.
Would I be able to get away smoothly now? Or is it another matter? Even if I ran to the toilet, I was scared by them.
No wonder some people say that they would rather hear the spirits cry than hear them laugh.
They laughed tonight, which really made me feel half cold.
The sneer was like a spell, stimulating my fragile nerves all the time.
I think if I hear their sneer every day, I will probably have neurasthenia in no time.
Then I will have nightmares every night.
"We shouldn't care about things we can't control. If we have to care, it won't do us any good. We have to face the reality."
I said this earnestly, fearing that Lin Hualong would not listen to my advice, or that he thought he was capable and insisted on getting involved in these things.
I think getting involved in these things is not necessarily a good thing.
There are only two of us, fighting with nothing, and the fighting power is the same as that of a scumbag. If we encounter a powerful spirit, we will just be sent to the enemy.
Take the half-human, half-spirit thing in the tomb of Shan'ao Village for example. I think even if it is the real body of Master Wang Jiu, coming from the spirit world, it may not be able to take advantage of him.
Lin Hualong blankly looked at me, obviously disliked my cowardly appearance.
Can you blame me for being cowardly? If it were anyone else, he would not be much braver than me.
"You kid, you are not as brave as a mouse all day long."
I agree with him and nodded actively. My blind grandfather told me since I was a child.
It's better to be a little timid. Curiosity kills the cat. People with courage will not have a good result in the end.
Since I was a child, other children went to explore air-raid shelters. At best, I went fishing by the river and caught rabbits in the fields.
It was as difficult as climbing to heaven to get me to do something else.
Seeing that I agreed, Lin Hualong felt more helpless and didn't bother to pay attention to me.
He just patted the dust off his body.
Just now, we wrestled on the ground. Although it was just a pretense, the dust on the ground was real.
I didn't bring any change of clothes when I came out. I looked at my dirty clothes.
It's always a bit miserable, but now that the clothes are washed, they may not be dry.
