"So..."

The Black Holy Son nodded with some regret. "But the difference isn't significant. On the first night, the old woman in red appeared on the tenth floor and killed Kafi. On the second night, she entered the eleventh floor from the tenth floor and killed Danfei.

"That is to say, she has the ability to move freely throughout the hotel."

He paused for a moment, and slowly said, "As for the third possibility, it is that a large number of rules in the hotel accommodation guide have become invalid.

"Such as being safe in the room, the elevator being safe, not dying after completing the note content, and so on.

"But these need more evidence to verify."

There was something the Black Holy Son didn't say. In fact, this mission wasn't that difficult.

The main difficulty was that the survival rules were complex and obscure.

If the players could unite and cooperate, and pay the price of a few lives, it was very likely that they could figure out all the rules of the hotel on the second or third night.

Then the survivors could all clear the level.

In short, it was to use human lives to try and make mistakes, to pile up the answers.

Unfortunately, no one was willing to sacrifice themselves.

Everyone hoped that someone else would be the scapegoat, paving the way for them—but they couldn't tear their faces apart and fall into fighting.

After all, those participating in the script missions were all high-level players above Lv15. Whoever dared to suggest that others be scapegoats, or show intentions in this regard, would definitely become the target of public criticism.

It was better to tacitly pretend that no one had such intentions, let nature take its course, and act according to the rules—at least the initiative was in their own hands, and their life and death depended on fate and their own abilities.

Moreover, the probability of encountering abnormal events was also very average and fair.

"It's too early to say these things right now,"

Li Ang glanced at the Black Holy Son and said casually, "Next, let's discuss the content recorded by the Mu Yin Zhi Gui (lit. Eye Concealing Ghost).

"He received the note shortly after curfew time, and followed the instructions on the note to take the initiative to sleep, enter the dream,

"And returned to the stone arch bridge.

"This time, he was no longer in a restricted state and could freely use equipment and props.

"After looking around on the bridge for thirty seconds, he heard the sound of wooden clogs from the other side of the bridge. He saw a woman with an indiscernible face, holding a red umbrella and wearing a white and purple kimono, walking out of the mist in front of him."

The Black Holy Son put the paper on the table.

Mu Yin Zhi Gui knew that the woman's identity was extremely important, so he tried his best to accurately describe her appearance, and even tried to draw a sketch to describe the woman's clothing and figure in detail.

Unfortunately, Mu Yin Zhi Gui's drawing skills were really not up to par.

The drawn portrait... had a kind of tragic feel of a snake spirit monster with big Kazilan eyes and a pointed chin, at most it was at the level of a kindergarten class.

It was impossible to identify at all, okay?!

If you don't have the talent, don't draw. Still learning to draw things.jpg

Aside from that somewhat tragic painting, Mu Yin Zhi Gui's description was actually quite complete.

Bai Haozheng stared at the paper and pondered for a long time, and said hesitantly, "Mu Yin Zhi Gui didn't see the picture I drew based on Wan Li Feng Dao's (Ten Thousand Miles Sealing Blade) memory during the day, but he personally believed that the kimono woman and the woman combing her hair in the mirror might be the same person.

"Combining the descriptions, it is indeed possible—

"Multiple iconic scenes appeared in his dream,

"Such as a cloudless sky, a river full of foam and floating dead fish.

"Considering that we also saw the other two scenes last night, such as a hotel corridor on a certain floor with a clock showing the time 03:33, and a strange figure wearing a bamboo hat and about three meters tall,

"It can be considered that the scenes Wan Li Feng Dao saw are indeed a kind of prophecy, or a hint from the Dolphin Hotel."

Wan Li Feng Dao heard this and thought for a while, and frowned, "Then what about what the woman in Mu Yin Zhi Gui's dream said?

"After seeing Mu Yin Zhi Gui, she said, 'Excuse me, are you also here to kill me?'

"Then she said, 'I haven't seen the hotel staff for a long time. I thought they had an accident in the last accident.'

"And 'The bridge is about to collapse. If you don't kill me, you will be trapped here forever.'

"After seeing that Mu Yin Zhi Gui didn't respond, she put on a sad expression and said that the hotel staff were all dead.

"From her words, she is not a hotel staff member, and has been in the place where the stone arch bridge is located for a long time,

"And has become accustomed to being killed. After killing her, the person who enters the stone arch bridge can escape. Otherwise, they will be trapped."

"She should be some kind of monster, or a former human being infected and entangled by the monster effect."

Mule said softly, "The one who has been responsible for killing her has always been the hotel staff.

"The latter is a group, which often rotates, without rules,

"Regularly killing the kimono woman is one of the rules that the hotel staff must follow—if they haven't done so, it can only mean that they are all dead."

After Mule finished analyzing, there was a strange silence in room 1208.

The accommodation guide hinted that if there was no one in the hotel, it was very likely that the hotel had been lost and all the staff were dead.

The kimono woman's words only further proved this point.

"..."

The liquid in Ω's fish tank helmet swayed back and forth, as if thinking about something, "There is one thing I care more about, and that is the kimono woman's reaction after seeing Mu Yin Zhi Gui.

"Before the sound of the wooden clogs sounded, Mu Yin Zhi Gui, who had discovered that the restriction was lifted, entered a battle state,

"Becoming a small giant similar to a monster, with red skin and a three-meter-long heavy naginata in his hand.

"In this case, the kimono woman was not surprised at all when she saw him, but calmly asked the other party if he was a hotel staff member and was here to kill her.

"If the kimono woman is not blind,

"Can it be considered that the hotel staff are not human beings in the conventional sense?"

"Huh?"

A white light flashed on Bai Haozheng's glasses, "Are you saying that the so-called hotel staff are actually monsters? We are the aliens?"

"It is possible, just like that American animated movie *Hotel Transylvania*, where everyone from the hotel operators to the residents are monsters.

"Humans, on the other hand, are rare and rare 'monsters'."

Ω spread his hands and said, "Or the animated movie *Monsters, Inc.* in the same style, which also designed a world full of various monster residents."

"A very constructive hypothesis."

Bai Haozheng nodded slowly, "If the monsters in our eyes, such as the six hat-wearing figures and the old woman in red,

"Are actually hotel staff, then many things can be explained.

"For example, they can violate the rules written by the hotel for guests to a certain extent, enter and exit the elevator during the security system activation period, freely open and close doors, etc...

"By the way,"

He turned to look at 13mArk, "You didn't see the six hat-wearing figures coming down from upstairs again last night, did you?"
