Chapter 351 Children
It was Qi Lin's voice.
"Brother Qi, it's me." Lin Jue quickly withdrew his hand.
A beam of flashlight shone up from downstairs, and then Qi Lin cautiously poked his head out from around the corner of the stairs. After seeing Lin Jue, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, it's Xiao Zhao. You scared me."
"What are you doing here?" Qi Lin didn't dare to come up, but instead waved to Lin Jue: "Come down quickly."
"I'm just a very curious person. I heard you talk about the seventeenth floor last time, so I came to take a look."
Upon hearing Lin Jue's answer, Qi Lin's expression turned strange. He thought to himself that this guy's curiosity was a bit too much. What normal person would want to go to a strange scene to satisfy their curiosity?
"Brother Qi, what brings you here again?" Lin Jue asked. He remembered that Qi Lin had just taken that man to check the surveillance footage. How come he suddenly came here again in less than ten minutes?
When he first heard Qi Lin's voice, he suspected that it was a strange imposter, but his True Eyes of Dharma did not detect anything unusual. Moreover, because of the existence of the Heart of the Underworld God, the strange imposter could not affect his mind, so the Qi Lin in front of him was real.
"Stop talking, something else has happened." Qi Lin sighed helplessly, "Just now, a man's wife went missing. I immediately thought it might be related to the seventeenth floor, so I took the man to the security room to check the surveillance footage. Come up here and take a look yourself. Did you see anything strange up there?"
It has to be said that Qi Lin is quite bold and responsible.
“No.” Lin Jue shook his head: “I think you still need to talk to your boss about this. If it’s really related to the seventeenth floor, then you have to let the investigation department handle it.”
“I told him, that guy is completely bewitched! Do you know what he replied to me?” Qi Lin’s tone was very displeased: “He told me to keep that guest calm first, and if it really has something to do with the seventeenth floor, to delete the surveillance footage as soon as possible and treat it as a normal missing person case.”
Lin Jue was speechless. That boss was completely obsessed with money. Someone else's wife had disappeared and her fate was unknown, yet he was still thinking of deceiving others.
“This time I don’t care anymore. If it really has to do with the seventeenth floor, even if I get fired, I’ll tell that man the truth. I’ve had enough.” Qi Lin was extremely uncomfortable with his boss’s actions: “This hotel should just close down! Every now and then…”
Before he could finish speaking, his phone rang. As soon as he answered, a look of surprise appeared on his face: "Did you find it?"
"Okay, okay, I'll be right down."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Lin hurriedly prepared to go downstairs, while telling Lin Jue, "Brother, don't come here again. It's very dangerous here. I feel that even if the Inspection Department has sealed it off, it's not safe."
"Brother, have you found the person?" Lin Jue followed Qi Lin naturally, wanting to see what was going on.
"Found her. They say the woman somehow walked down the stairs, and was eventually seen by our receptionist on the first floor." Qi Lin went to the 15th floor, pressed the elevator button, and then looked at Lin Jue: "Are you going down too?"
"No, I just went down for a stroll. I just ate, so I thought I'd help digest my food." Lin Jue rubbed his stomach.
Qi Lin chuckled twice. He knew that this guy was just being curious again and wanted to go down and watch the fun, but he didn't expose him, since Lin Jue was a guest of the hotel.
As soon as the elevator doors stopped on the first floor and before they even opened, Lin Jue heard a commotion outside, mixed with a man's cries.
problem occurs!
Lin Jue and Qi Lin exchanged a glance and rushed out the moment the elevator doors opened. The reception hall on the first floor was crowded with people, including onlookers and several police officers. In the middle of the crowd, a man was tightly embracing a woman, crying out, "Wife, what's wrong with you? Look at me! I'm your husband!"
“The child is dead. That happened many years ago. It’s not your fault.”
The woman in the man's arms didn't react at all. Instead, she stared blankly down at him with a happy smile on her face, as if she were looking at a child.
"Wife, look at me, look at me." The man hurriedly turned the woman's face towards him, but the woman pushed him away violently: "Are you blind? The child is right there!"
As she spoke, she squatted down, opened her arms to the air, and a happy smile returned to her face: "Sweetie, baby, don't be afraid, come here and let Mommy hug you."
“She’s gone mad again, just like that customer who jumped off the building before.” Qi Lin’s face was very grim. “When I took that guy to check the surveillance footage, I asked him about his wife’s recent mental state. He said that his wife suffered from depression for a period of time ten years ago because their child suddenly died, but she has been cured. The customer before said he saw his grandmother, this woman must have seen her dead child.”
"Damn it! I quit! Tomorrow I'm going to post all this crap online, and also the things those guys in the Investigation Department did. Those guys clearly said they had sealed it off, so why are these same things still happening?"
"The hotel's safety situation must be reassessed, and it cannot continue operating until it is truly safe!"
"Now it seems that the hotel is no longer safe to stay in. One person has died in such a short time, and now another has gone insane. If it continues to operate, even more people will probably die."
Qi Lin grabbed his hair, showing that he still had a strong sense of justice. He had chosen to keep quiet before because he had to support his family, but now he really couldn't stand it anymore.
The boss's cover-up, the inaction of the audit department, and the lie that the hotel is safe will only lead to more and more people losing their lives because they are unaware of the situation.
"I'll go tell them right now! Tell all the guests to leave, brother, you should leave too."
As he spoke, Qi Lin prepared to stride forward and explain the current situation to all the guests, but Lin Jue grabbed him and pointed towards the door.
A middle-aged woman with a large belly rushed in, surrounded by several burly men. The woman was seriously overweight and walked with a swaying gait. Her white shirt was soaked with sweat.
On the woman's cheek was a red spot that radiated outwards from the center of her nose, resembling a red butterfly.
"Is this your boss?" Lin Jue asked. If a woman was protected by several burly men, she must be of very high status.
"Hmm." Qi Lin stopped, looking indignant.
Lin Jue looked at the red marks on the woman's face. He didn't know if they were birthmarks or acquired later in life, but they were quite noticeable.
"Let's wait and see how your boss handles this. If she continues to give us the cold shoulder like before, then it's not too late for you to speak up." (End of Chapter)
