Hei Deng Xia Huo
Chapter 700 Luck
Bai Haozheng earnestly asked, "About what Dan Fei wrote."
"Hmm..."
Li Ang frowned in thought for a moment before turning to look at Bob.
The old black man's eyes had been red since earlier, his fists clenched as he forcefully suppressed the grief in his heart.
Cafe and Dan Fei were very close friends of his. Their relationship had lasted from the real world in their childhood to the Killing Game.
But now, less than two days into this scenario mission,
Cafe had been eaten alive, and Dan Fei was left with only one hand and one foot,
Leaving him alone in the perilous Dolphin Hotel...
Why!
Cafe died first, and Dan Fei encountered extremely terrifying anomalies for two consecutive nights.
Correspondingly, 13mArk on the eighth floor and Ω on the first floor had been spared for two consecutive days, remaining safe and sound.
This wasn't fair!
Bob really wanted to shout it out loud,
But he also understood that the note thing was purely random. It was useless to resent the injustice of fate, and he couldn't blame it on others.
"Bob, you should be quite familiar with Dan Fei, right? Take a look at the handwriting on this piece of paper. Is it Dan Fei's?"
Li Ang handed the paper to Bob.
The latter snorted coldly and took it, frowning as he glanced at it. "It should be Dan Fei's handwriting. He likes to draw his 'w's like waves, and his 'B's in one stroke.
No mistake, it's his own handwriting."
Li Ang nodded. "What about the saliva smell on it? Smell it and see if it's his."
"?"
Bob leaned forward, dumbfounded. "How would I know the smell of his saliva? Do you have some misunderstanding about me and him?"
"True friends need to understand everything about each other,"
Li Ang said righteously, "What kind of friend doesn't even know the smell of the other person's saliva?"
...Whatever makes you happy.
Bob's eye twitched. He didn't pay attention to Li Ang's weird request.
"The saliva smell is secondary. Take a look at the handwriting on the note,"
Bai Haozheng said calmly, "Does it belong to Dan Fei or Cafe's handwriting? Or do you not recognize either?"
"Are you saying that the content on the note might have been left by Cafe?"
Mule raised an eyebrow. "That would explain why the content on the note is contradictory.
If the handwriting belongs to Cafe, then maybe it can prove that the hotel can bind the spirits of those who died in the hotel..."
Bob took the note and carefully examined it for a while,
Finally, he shook his head. "It doesn't look like Cafe's handwriting. His handwriting is more upright and clear, and the letters don't stick together."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
"...Then that's strange."
Mule pondered for a moment, looking at the paper. "According to Dan Fei's own analysis last night,
There are several explanations for the content of the note.
One, connect the landline phone in the room to the phone line. If a phone call comes in, don't answer it.
Two, answer the phone but don't speak.
Three, answer the first phone but not the second.
He negated the first guess after checking that the phone line was intact,
As for the second hypothesis, because the phone rang in the hallway first, he hesitated for a few seconds and chose to follow the accommodation guide, not opening the door to answer the phone in the hallway.
As for the third hypothesis, it was also negated by himself—
The landline phone on the right side of the eleventh-floor hallway rang, but he didn't answer it.
Naturally, there was even less reason for him to run to the next room, risking double the danger to answer the phone.
Moreover, the phone in his own room, 1172, also rang.
Under various factors, he decided to answer the third phone."
"The content suddenly stopped,"
Bai Haozheng frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "It's possible that during the call, he heard some news that greatly disturbed his mind,
Preventing him from writing down the content of the call on the note.
Of course, it's also possible that an anomaly directly controlled his body through the phone, preventing him—but this possibility is relatively small.
If an anomaly could control him through the phone,
Then he wouldn't even be able to write the subsequent words and would be killed directly."
"Mm."
Li Ang nodded, turned his head, and scanned the room. "The amount of blood in the room is about 50% of Dan Fei's body size.
Combining the different types of blood stains and the scattered positions of the debris,
I think Dan Fei should have been attacked first on the sofa in the living room.
At that time, he was already prepared for defense, arranged the room, and was confident that the other party could not easily break into the house—he maintained a standing posture when attacked, standing next to the sofa in the living room, and still had the energy to write.
However, the other party easily entered 1172, moving too fast for Dan Fei to react.
His arm was cut off.
He dropped the paper and tried to resist, but was directly knocked down by the other party, flying across and hitting the corner of the living room.
Crashing into the furniture along the way.
However, Dan Fei did not lose all combat power. He quickly got up, stomped on the ground, crossed the living room,
Swinging his axe to chop at the other party—the splash-shaped blood stains on the walls and carpet along the way proved this.
The next thing, then, was a fight between the two in the narrow living room.
Dan Fei quickly fell into a disadvantage, his right leg was cut off, and he fell to the ground.
His left ankle was grabbed by the other party and dragged out of the door along the carpet—the vertical drag marks on the carpet and threshold proved this.
The other party dragged Dan Fei out of room 1172 and closed the door outside.
Since the hallway will be cleared and refreshed, there are no bloodstains left on the hallway carpet..."
Li Ang pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Bai Haozheng and asked, "When you came, the door should have been closed, right?"
"It was closed, but it wasn't locked from the inside."
Bai Haozheng said, "The fact that it wasn't locked proves that the room door was opened last night."
The players had discussed before that they should close the room door at night and lock it from the inside to ensure safety.
Dan Fei couldn't be stupid enough not to check the door during curfew.
The only explanation
Is that the so-called 'they' can open doors that have been locked from the inside.
Wanli Fengdao frowned and asked, "What exactly do they mean?"
"They and she are separate,"
Mule tilted his head and said, "'She' should be the old woman in red that Dan Fei saw last night.
And 'they' may refer to all the anomalies in the hotel?
If that's the case, our living environment will be even worse..."
Bai Haozheng nodded. "Dan Fei didn't leave the room and followed the instructions on the note, but was attacked by an anomaly that came up from downstairs.
This shows that his actions did violate the note's instructions, which is why he was punished."
"You can only say that he was unlucky."
Li Ang shook his head and said, "The content of the note is too vague and has multiple interpretations, and he just happened to perform the choice that would trigger the punishment.
Hmm...
From his account, he seems very certain that the footsteps in the hallway came from a woman, most likely the old woman in red from last night.
That woman was from the tenth floor. I suggest we go back to the tenth floor and search again to see if we can find any other remnants of Dan Fei."
