At first, that person had some fighting strength, so even with four people, they couldn't take him down directly.

But he was, after all, an ordinary person, and he couldn't withstand the attacks of four people. In less than ten minutes, he was subdued.

Knowing that he was no match and there was no escape, the man sighed helplessly and said, "Even if you kill me, you won't leave here alive."

The middle-aged man, past caring about the consequences, stabbed the person in the chest with a knife as if he'd gone mad.

The chest again!

The difference was that the moment the knife went in, blood splattered out.

Damn it!

Even the people standing next to him were splattered with blood on their faces.

The man glared fiercely at the middle-aged man, then lay on the ground in resignation.

Before long, he stopped breathing.

However, his eyes were still wide open, clearly unwilling to die.

The middle-aged man didn't care whether the person died with resentment. After seeing that he was dead, he immediately asked the boss, "I've killed him. Can you let us go now?"

"If you had killed him alone, I could have let you go. But the problem is, you used the strength of others, so I'm sorry, I can't let you go. As for the others, none of you can leave."

The boss said with a smile. Just looking at him, you couldn't tell that he was the kind of person who would do such a thing.

So many times, you can't just look at a person's surface.

The middle-aged man immediately became angry and questioned the boss, "Aren't you playing me? You clearly said that as long as I killed him, you would let me go, but now you're saying you won't. If I couldn't use the strength of others, why didn't you say so?"

"You didn't ask!" the boss responded casually.

The middle-aged man was speechless.

What was this all about!

He killed someone and still couldn't leave. Did they want him to atone for what he had done?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

The middle-aged man looked at the boss coldly and said, "No matter what, I have to leave here."

With that, he walked straight to the door.

But he regretted it as soon as he got to the door, because by now, many evil spirits had gathered around.

If he left now, he would surely die.

But if he stayed here, he would also die.

What the hell was the middle-aged man supposed to do?

If he was going to die either way, he might as well die quickly.

The middle-aged man returned to the house and looked at the boss, saying, "I'll leave tomorrow morning."

"Haha..." The boss suddenly laughed, as if mocking the middle-aged man's ignorance.

But the middle-aged man was indeed foolish!

Yuan Mu Ye couldn't stand it anymore, but he didn't want to interfere, so he decided to go back to his room and rest. As long as he could get through tonight safely, other things were irrelevant.

Just as he was about to leave, the middle-aged man suddenly stopped Yuan Mu Ye.

"Wait, don't go!"

Hearing this, Yuan Mu Ye instinctively stopped and turned to look at the middle-aged man with a surprised expression.

"What's wrong?"

The middle-aged man walked directly to Yuan Mu Ye and asked in a low voice, "What's your relationship with the boss?"

Yuan Mu Ye was also stunned. He didn't expect the middle-aged man to ask such a nonsensical question.

He had no relationship with the boss at all. If he had to say there was a relationship, it was that of customer and boss.

Why would the middle-aged man suddenly ask this for no reason?

"Is that any of your business?" Yuan Mu Ye asked, glancing at the middle-aged man in surprise.

The middle-aged man said expressionlessly, "You must have a relationship with the boss, otherwise, why is he only targeting us and not you?"

Speaking of this, Yuan Mu Ye also found it strange. Putting everything else aside, why did the boss want to cause trouble for these people?

Before all this happened, they didn't seem to have offended the boss, right?

The boss had kindly taken them to the cellar. Unless, from the beginning, the boss had ulterior motives.

"Ask the boss!" Yuan Mu Ye didn't want to waste too much time talking to this guy, mainly because it was meaningless.

As soon as he finished speaking, the boss, who had probably heard their conversation, walked over and said, "Because he is a guest of the hotel. We have a rule here that as long as you're a guest, no matter what kind of person you are, we will guarantee your safety."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man felt even more unbalanced.

Why?

Everything he had done was for self-preservation, but he had ended up in this situation!

When registering in the evening, he was just one step slower, but the outcome was completely different.

"What did we do wrong? Why did you have to push us to this point!"

The middle-aged man couldn't bear it anymore. He could endure other things, but he couldn't endure this, because if he did, he would be the one to die.

Sometimes, you have to fight for it, even if you don't know the outcome, at least you won't regret it.

"From beginning to end, I didn't do anything. You put yourselves in this position."

The boss said in an indifferent tone.

Hearing this, Yuan Mu Ye was also stunned. Was the boss denying what he had done?

The middle-aged man pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but he didn't know how to start.

"You should go upstairs first!" The boss glanced at Yuan Mu Ye and said.

Yuan Mu Ye didn't say anything. He turned around and went upstairs, but after returning to his room, he still felt uneasy.

Feng Ge noticed that Yuan Mu Ye was a little restless, so he asked, "Brother Yuan, did something happen?"

Yuan Mu Ye didn't want to tell him about this at first, but after thinking about it, it wasn't a big deal, so he told him about it.

"Brother Yuan, I feel that the boss doesn't want to take revenge on them, but on the people who entered the cellar," Feng Ge said thoughtfully after listening.

That made some sense, but in the end, those people were still innocent, after all, the boss had brought them in.

Why was the boss doing this?

Feng Ge seemed to have thought of something and said to Yuan Mu Ye, "Brother Yuan, where's that storybook?"

"It's here!"

Yuan Mu Ye took out the storybook.

Feng Ge took the storybook and read it again.

After reading it, he looked up at Yuan Mu Ye and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the boss should be the god in the story."

"That... how is that possible?"

Yuan Mu Ye looked at Feng Ge in disbelief, thinking that it was just his guess.

But after thinking about it, some things were indeed too strange.

For example, the cellar, the boss's resurrection, and even his doppelganger.
