The Pseudo-Human Academy: Starting with a Bricklayer Personality

After a moment of silence, Ye Ningyun looked at everyone present and said:

"Let's go to the seventh floor and see what happened last night that made Lin Miedi run out of the house."

Upon hearing this, Deng Jun said with some disappointment:

"Lin Miedi called me last night and said that Bao Shiyu was going to kill her and asked me to come and save her."

"Then I saw the ghost bride hanging Lin Miedi in mid-air at the elevator entrance."

"I wanted to go out and save her, but the ghost bride was too strong. She blasted me into the elevator in one go. It felt like I was hit by a truck. I was in so much pain that I couldn't get up for a long time."

"I spent the rest of the night in the elevator. The ghost bride was outside, and I had no idea what would happen after I went out."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ningyun fell into deep thought:

According to Deng Jun, after he was kicked into the elevator, the ghost bride did not enter the elevator to finish him off, so it can be confirmed that the elevator was safe.

"If you encounter danger and it's really impossible to stay in the room, hide in the elevator."

"Let's go up and take a look first!"

The group quickly arrived at the seventh floor by elevator and entered the corridor. The door to Lin Miedi's room was open.

As the group arrived at the room door, the stench of blood assaulted their nostrils. College student Zhao Fei screamed and grabbed Lin Shouyi, who was standing nearby.

"Blood, so much blood!"

Landmine Girl looked at Zhao Fei speechlessly:

"You're such a coward! And you call yourself a man! I didn't even make a sound, what were you yelling for?"

The well-behaved Liu Yu was so frightened that she forgot to scream.

Except for Xu Feng, who had a warm smile and seemed to be at home, everyone else looked rather unhappy.

Looking at the bloodstains all over the room, Ye Ningyun stroked her chin and came to a conclusion.

"Lin Miedi was probably not killed in the room. With such a large amount of bleeding, it would be impossible for her to run to the elevator for help. The bloodstains in the room were most likely created by a trick."

"Their most likely purpose was to scare Lin Miedi out of the room."

"So that the ghost bride outside can kill Lin Miedi."

"The information we have so far is that the rules say we have to escape the hotel, so if we want to escape, we have to find clues."

"Yesterday we searched the entire hotel but didn't find anything. What I find strange is that there isn't even a place for staff to rest in such a large room. We must have missed something."

"Let's search carefully again, count the number of rooms on each floor, and see which floor is missing a room. The clue should be on the floor with the missing room."

This statement immediately caused a stir in the live stream chat:

AAA Nine Clans Wholesale (Chinese): "To be fair, this newcomer is really something! He figured out the crux of the problem so quickly."

Shang Yang (Hua), the quintet: "I prefer watching a bloody gentleman live rather than a new man dying."

Hammer from the opposite direction (Hua): "So, what's the relationship between the ghost bride dressed as a woman in the hallway and the ghost bride in the picture frame in the Bloody Gentleman's room?"

Ace Deathbringer (Hua): "The Bloody Gentleman said it wasn't just one person, and it was a cross-dressing pervert (just kidding)."

Fang Xiaoru (Hua): "It should be a family relationship, right? In ancient times, if one of the parties in a betrothal contract died unexpectedly, their siblings would have to complete the marriage in their place. This custom is quite strange, but it is indeed recorded."

The piercingly bright Xiahou Dun (Hua): "Hiss! If that's the case, then why didn't the male bride wandering in the corridor dare to go inside and reunite with his family? The bride's portrait is right there in the room!"

The rebellious Lu Zhishen (Hua): "Something must have happened to make them turn against each other!"

Testicular War God (Hua): "From what we can see, the room must be protected by something that prevents those dirty things from entering and harming people."

"And the message on Lin Miedi's TV screen last night, as it stands, doesn't seem to indicate any intention to harm the Chosen One; at the very least, it seems to want her to live."

"As it stands, apart from the picture frame in the Bloody Gentleman's bedroom, nothing else in the room seems strange."

"From God's perspective, these are the few clues we know so far. Hopefully, Ye Ningyun and the others can find new clues today!"

…………

"Brother Ye! Something's wrong! Something's wrong on the eighth floor!"

Lin Shouyi rushed to Ye Ningyun in one breath, his face covered in sweat and his voice trembling:

"The other floors all have twelve rooms, but the eighth floor... only has eleven! One room is missing!"

"Just as I expected!"

A glint flashed in Ye Ningyun's eyes, and her tense nerves finally relaxed for a moment:

"Let's go to the eighth floor!"

The group quickly rushed to the eighth floor.

However, the scene before them left everyone stunned.

The decor, carpets, and lighting here are exactly the same as on the other floors.

After searching for a long time, everyone could only find that the distance between the rooms seemed to be slightly larger than on other floors. They couldn't find the so-called twelfth room at all.

"Could it be... that I guessed wrong?"

Ye Ningyun frowned, looking at the empty corridor, her doubts growing stronger.

Just then, Xu Feng, who had been silent all along, made a move.

Instead of looking around like the others, he walked to a wall in the middle of the corridor, stretched out his slender fingers, and gently stroked the wallpaper.

After taking a few steps, Xu Feng suddenly stopped.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, the sensation from his fingertips felt somewhat unusual.

There seems to be something hidden under this wallpaper.

"Found it."

Xu Feng spoke calmly, and the next second, he pulled out a gleaming boning knife from his pocket!

Those were knives that were taken from the kitchen.

"Sizzle—!"

The sound of a knife blade slicing through wallpaper was particularly jarring in the deathly silent corridor.

Xu Feng flipped his wrist and swiftly slashed open a human-shaped opening, then tore it open with force.

That seemingly sturdy wall was actually just a thin layer of plywood!

A hidden door, just wide enough for one person to pass through, suddenly appeared before them.

"Well done!"

Everyone's faces lit up with joy, and Lin Shouyi was so excited that he wanted to pat Xu Feng on the shoulder.

But when his gaze fell on the knife in Xu Feng's hand, his hand froze in mid-air.

He swallowed hard and asked cautiously:

"Brother Xu Feng... is it really normal for you to carry a knife with you at all times?"

Xu Feng elegantly wiped the blade with a tissue, looking at him with an innocent expression:

"You don't understand, do you? For an excellent chef, never letting go of a knife is a basic requirement."

Basic literacy?

Lin Shouyi was speechless.

Ye Ningyun pushed open the door, and it was pitch black inside.

Ye Ningyun turned on her phone's flashlight and slipped into the narrow corridor.

Lin Shouyi watched Ye Ningyun crawl inside, then he turned on the lights and crawled inside as well.

After walking about six or seven meters, the view suddenly opened up.

Immediately, Ye Ningyun witnessed a scene that sent chills down his spine.

The hotel's decor is undeniably luxurious and modern, yet this room feels as if it were a piece forcibly sliced ​​off from the river of time.

It has an antique feel, but it also exudes a sense of stale and lifeless desolation.

A carved wooden bed, a brocade quilt with mandarin ducks, and the lingering tears of a red candle.

This intense sense of temporal and spatial discontinuity is more suffocating than any ghost or monster.

Xu Feng followed closely behind and squeezed in. When he saw the whole room, his usually calm eyes suddenly narrowed, as if he had seen something incredible.

This room...

It was exactly the same scene as the eerie picture frame in his room!
