Chapter 0064: Unspeakable Horror
"What's weird in here?" He Jintang cursed and reached out to push the door of the room.
But just as he touched the door handle, he shrank back as if he had been electrocuted, and cried out in surprise: "It's so cold!"
Ah Biao touched it and his face changed drastically, "What's going on? Is there an ice storage inside?"
I held Bao'er for a while, and saw her eyes gradually regain their spirits. She lowered her raised left hand and asked softly, "Bao'er?"
"Brother." Baoer agreed.
We all breathed a sigh of relief when we heard her soft, clear voice.
"There was something in there just now, but it's gone." Baoer said, pointing at the door.
I handed Bao'er to He Jintang and the others, asked the three of them to step back, and touched the door handle. It was indeed freezing cold.
I clenched my fist and knocked on the door lock. The door opened immediately and a chilly and eerie air blew in my face.
He Jintang and the others all shuddered and took a few steps back, which showed that the level of yin energy in the room was far beyond normal.
Normal people like yang and have a natural aversion to yin energy. Moreover, ordinary people can easily get sick if they stay in a place with strong yin energy for a long time.
But the feeling I have now is very strange. I am actually quite used to the oppressive gloomy atmosphere in this room and I even like it a little.
Bah, bah, bah, I am a human being, how can I have such perverted thoughts!
I quickly drove this weird thought out of my mind. This room was not a private dining room, but a large suite, probably for people to rest.
The room was pitch black. I pressed the switch and all the lights went out.
When I turned to the nearest bedroom , I saw a man lying on his back on the bed. His expression was ferocious and terrified, and he was already dead.
He took a chopstick in his hand and pierced his throat. His death was extremely strange.
You have to know that one end of the chopsticks is blunt, not a sharp blade. It takes a lot of force to pierce the throat.
And there is one very strange thing. There is a bloody hole on the man's throat, but there is no blood on his body or the bed, as if the chopsticks were stabbed into the throat after the person died.
But I soon realized that it was not the case. The wound on his throat was his fatal wound, but his blood seemed to evaporate suddenly the moment it gushed out, leaving no bloodstains around.
At this time, the four people outside saw that I had not come out for a long time, so they came in.
Seeing the corpse on the bed, He Jintang and Zhu Xiaomei opened their eyes wide and opened their mouths to scream, but fortunately A Biao, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, covered their mouths.
Otherwise, if they call people over, we will all be in trouble.
I saw Baoer coming over and looking at the corpse curiously, so I rubbed her little head and told everyone to leave first.
After we wiped away some traces left at the scene and returned to our own private room, we heard screams and exclamations outside. I guess someone finally noticed what had happened.
He Jintang's face turned pale, and he drank several sips of wine to calm himself down. "What the hell is going on?"
I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Look at how cowardly you are. You're even worse than Bao'er."
He Jintang rolled his eyes and said indignantly: "You compare me with Baoer, how can this be compared?"
Zhu Xiaomei looked at me and then at He Jintang, hesitating to speak. Finally, she couldn't help but say, "Is it appropriate for you to let a child as young as Baoer watch such a horrific scene?"
He Jintang was stunned by what she said. He moved his mouth and was about to say something when someone knocked on the door.
The person who came was the general manager of Yu Jiangnan, and he was also an old acquaintance of He Jintang. He said that someone had died upstairs, so they had to ask us to stay here for the time being.
He Jintang asked him what had happened and who died.
The manager looked terrified and lowered his voice to say that the dead was Xu Shao, the young master of the Lanchen Hotel.
He Jintang was surprised: "Is it him?"
The manager shook his head and sighed, saying that they were likely to be unlucky tonight. Mr. Xu from the Lanchen Hotel was on his way, and this man was in Yu Jiangnan. They were afraid that they would not have a good time.
After the manager left, I asked He Jintang, "Do you know the person who died?"
I didn't expect that I actually knew this guy. He was a famous playboy in Jiangcheng. He saw rich second-generations like Xu Shao all the time, so naturally he was no stranger to him.
It’s just that just now, because Xu Shao looked so scary, He Jintang was almost frightened to death when he saw him, so he didn’t recognize him.
Afterwards, all the people in Yujiangnan were interrogated. I heard that the surveillance cameras in the corridor on the top floor suddenly broke down at 11:30.
And it's weirdly bad.
From the recorded video, at half past eleven, a corridor light at the eastern end of the corridor suddenly went out, and soon after that, the camera nearby broke down.
There was a gap of about five seconds when the second corridor light went out, followed by the third...
It looked like something was starting from the easternmost end of the corridor and moving westward step by step. Every time it moved a distance, the corridor lights and cameras near it broke down one by one.
The security guards who went to check the surveillance footage were terrified.
The manager of Yu Jiangnan also revealed that not only was the way Mr. Xu died strange, but his body was also strange. More than half of the blood on his body was missing, but no other bloodstains were found in the entire room.
The coroner almost thought that Xu Shao was killed somewhere else, but after the examination, he said that the body should not have been moved here after death.
Anyway, the whole thing was extremely strange. It was said that the coroner even detected cold sweats during the autopsy, but still couldn't come to any accurate conclusion.
When the chairman of the Lanchen Hotel arrived, he was furious when he saw his son's tragic death and demanded that no one leave Yu Jiangnan even a step!
We stayed in the private room all night until the next morning, when Yu Jiangnan lifted the blockade and allowed the guests that night to leave.
In the next few days, He Jintang and A Biao were busy arranging the funeral arrangements for the three members of the He family, while Wang Ruoyu and Zhu Xiaomei were also busy with Zhu Shouwen's funeral arrangements.
As for the matter involving Xu Shao, there were some rumors at the beginning, but they did not cause much stir.
The days were quite peaceful.
I wanted to call Song Qingqing and invite a few classmates out for dinner, but when I saw my pale face in the mirror, I sighed again and just sent her a WeChat message to ask her what she was busy with recently.
Song Qingqing replied to me quickly, saying that the school was going to hold a party and she had been busy rehearsing a dance recently and was very busy.
I asked her to take a rest, and she replied, "Okay, you too!"
I didn't bother her anymore and went to Jiubaozhai for a stroll.
As soon as Boss Qian saw me, he smiled and gave me a thumbs-up: "Brother, you did a great job for the Wang family!"
I smiled and said, " Boss Qian is well-informed."
The old man chuckled and went to the inner room to get me two pieces of jade.
The quality of these two items is quite good, but they are still far from the blood jade I need. It seems that I have to think of other ways.
