In normal life, the probability of encountering supernatural events is not high.
So, at first, Wen Wen did not think in that direction.
But who knew he would be so lucky to run into a supernatural case.
That's right, for Wen Wen, this was luck, his hands had been itching for a while.
He didn't know what level of containment item that was, and the superpowered individual's aura suggested he was only at the disaster level.
However, Wen Wen did not take it lightly; instead, he was very vigilant and cautious.
Complacency is the beginning of failure, and failure means death.
Although Wen Wen had always been reckless, he never put himself in a situation where death was possible.
He planned to first test the young man's background, see what kind of abilities he possessed, whether he was an enemy or a friend, and if he had any connection to that containment item.
However, before Wen Wen could make a move, he saw a middle-aged burly man with a scar on his face, holding a cleaver, rush out of the kitchen aggressively.
"His target should be that superpowered individual... I can use this opportunity to test his background."
Someone was stepping up for him, so Wen Wen was naturally happy to be at leisure.
Then, to Wen Wen's astonished gaze, the middle-aged uncle's cleaver directly cut into the superpowered individual's skull.
Blood immediately flowed everywhere, and the superpowered individual fell to the ground with a thud, his legs still twitching faintly.
"This... something's not right."
Wen Wen was stunned for less than two seconds before his cigarette holder fell from his mouth, and he shouted, "Murder! Murder!"
A superpowered individual was actually killed by an ordinary person with a single knife; the situation here was definitely not right, so Wen Wen wanted to hide himself and not attract attention.
He didn't want to end up like that superpowered individual, just gone.
"Haha, I killed him, I can finally get out of this hellhole."
The burly man released the cleaver, crying and laughing like a madman.
After laughing for a while, he crazily pulled open the hotel door, intending to rush out.
But as he pushed the door open and walked not far, his flesh began to writhe, then his skin cracked, and the entire person exploded, the scene being extremely bloody.
Wen Wen looked out the window but saw no flesh or blood on the ground, as if the scene just moments ago was an illusion.
"Who... who can tell me what exactly is going on, I want to call the police!" Wen Wen said, trembling.
"Put down your phone, calling the police won't help."
A lazy voice came from where the superpowered individual had just died, and Wen Wen's pupils constricted slightly, then he said in panic, "Who's speaking, are you human or ghost?"
"Don't be afraid, I'm human."
A blood-stained hand reached out from under the table, and then the superpowered individual who had been cleaved in the head stood up, with a cleaver stuck in his head.
"Hiss... don't say it, being hit in the head with a knife really hurts."
Wen Wen stared at the superpowered individual in astonishment; he had indeed been dead just now.
The blood was real, and his aura had indeed disappeared; looking at him now, he didn't seem to possess extremely high self-healing abilities...
But why did he stand up again?
An undead creature?
No, he was alive now.
The superpowered individual gripped the handle of the knife and forcefully pulled it out, throwing it on the ground. With blood still gushing from his head, he explained to Wen Wen:
"Well, you probably don't know what's going on yet, so let me explain. From the moment you entered this hotel, you've essentially entered another space, and you can't make phone calls."
Then, he pointed to the dancing girl statue and said, "See that statue over there? Everything here is the work of that thing. This space is completely sealed, you can only enter, not leave. Forcing your way out will result in becoming like that person just now."
"Every once in a while, that statue will dance. During the dance, everyone will participate in a game, and the one who loses is the 'prey,' while the others are the hunters."
"Before the next dance, the hunter who kills the prey can earn the qualification to leave here. If no one dies during this process, one 'hunter' will be randomly selected to die during the next dance."
He picked up a towel, wiped the blood off himself, and said to Wen Wen with a smile.
"The chosen prey is me, and unfortunately, I am immortal."
Wen Wen was stunned, immortal?
This was the first time he had encountered such an arrogant superpowered individual. Who, if they were human, could be immortal?
However, this place was quite interesting, an independent space that could only be entered but not exited?
Wen Wen didn't believe in such nonsense. He would directly enter the containment facility now; he didn't believe this thing could blow him up.
However, even though he didn't believe it, Wen Wen still didn't want to take the risk.
He decided to observe more, find the weakness of the statue, and then solve it to send the people inside out.
There were now six people in the hotel, including Wen Wen himself. Besides the superpowered individual, the old man, and the hotel clerk, there were two others.
One was a young man sitting in the corner of the hotel, holding a chair, looking nervous and even a bit neurotic.
The other was a girl about thirteen or fourteen years old, huddled in a corner, sobbing softly, seemingly holding something in her arms.
Before Wen Wen could observe closely, the statue seemed to come alive and began to dance gracefully.
Several flashing light bulbs suddenly appeared on the hotel ceiling, and lights of various colors flickered, turning the environment into something like a KTV.
Wen Wen became slightly solemn: "Is this the game time he mentioned? There are no game prompts. How many rounds of 'games' did they have to go through to figure out the rules?"
He looked suspiciously at the other people. To have survived multiple 'games,' these guys might not be as simple as they appeared.
If these people weren't here, Wen Wen would definitely have tried to contain the dancing statue directly. But with these people in the way, many of Wen Wen's actions would be constrained.
"Now, it's the game time you mentioned, right? So, how exactly does this game start?" Wen Wen stood up and walked to the superpowered individual, asking.
The superpowered individual gave Wen Wen a slight smile, looking quite elegant. If his face wasn't covered in blood, he would have had more charm.
"Don't worry, the game will start in a while. By the way, introduce yourself."
Wen Wen pretended to be nervous and said stammeringly, "I... my name is Wu Wang, I'm a private investigator, and I'm going to Yanling City to handle a case..."
The superpowered individual squatted in front of Wen Wen and comforted him, "Don't be nervous, Detective Wu, right? My name is Chu Wei, and I'm a demon hunter who specializes in dealing with such supernatural events. You can ask me if you have any questions."
"Okay, Ah Wei, can we get out of here alive?" Wen Wen replied immediately.
Chu Wei was stunned for a moment. Calling someone Ah Wei right after meeting them, you're being too familiar. However, he still promised, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, you won't die if you don't court death."
