All The Protagonists, I Was Forced To Take The Position Because Of Salted Fish

Ding.

The elevator stops at the eighteenth floor,

The three of them walked out of the elevator, and Huo Zheng suddenly paused.

Goo

Lin Qi looked at Huo Zheng,

Huo Zheng closed his eyes and passed his fingers over his eyelids.

Lin Qi noticed the tattoo under Huo Zheng's gloves, and there were traces of spell fluctuations on the index finger of his left hand.

Huo Zheng opened his eyes again,

The black pupils became slightly larger and darker in color. Huo Zheng looked up at the ceiling of the corridor.

.....yin and yang eyes. There is also a technique to control the switch of the yin and yang eyes, which is quite suitable for Huo Zheng's physique. Lin Qi nodded secretly.

"There is Yin Qi left upstairs," Huo Zheng said.

upstairs,

That is the 19th floor.

"It's okay," Lin Qi comforted Huo Zheng, "It's just the new yin energy, it will dissipate in two days."

Huo Zheng looked away, suddenly stunned.

"It seems that someone has died recently, so the hotel will not allow people to live on the 19th floor for the time being. I can understand why they didn't inform the guests." As he said this, Huo Zheng thought of something, glanced at Lin Qi, and raised his hand to close the yin and yang eyes. , his eyes showed respect and embarrassment, as if he realized that Lin Qi should have noticed it long ago.

"Ah?" Xiao Zhang scratched his head, "Have you ever died? The corresponding jurisdiction is responsible for the matter. I don't even know... 22 I'm really sorry. I just came to the five-star hotel and didn't do a good job of investigation. , you two, wait a moment, I’ll go change your hotel to another!”

Lin Qi stopped Xiao Zhang who turned around and was about to leave.

"It's okay, it might be just right for the two of us to live here."

Xiao Zhang seemed to have remembered their identities and smiled sheepishly.

Lin Qi and Huo Zheng went to their rooms to place their luggage respectively.

Xiao Zhang was waiting in the corridor and would take them to have a dinner with N city characteristics later.

***

Lin Qi collected the room card and closed the door.

When I went out, I happened to see Huo Zheng coming out.

Huo Zheng greeted him with another ninety-degree bow.

The corner of Lin Qi's mouth twitched, but he didn't say much... This guy had a strict character at first glance. If he wasn't allowed to do this, he might even be unhappy.

Turn around and walk towards the elevator,

Xiao Zhang leaned against the wall covered with dark gold wallpaper,

He was looking at the phone intently, his fingers tapping rapidly on the screen.

Xiao Zhang raised his head and saw the two people approaching, Tuan put away his mobile phone.

"I just asked a colleague who works in this area. He said that two days ago, a 25-year-old young lady jumped to her death on the 19th floor of this hotel." The three of them walked into the elevator. , Xiao Zhang said the news he had learned, "But the hotel did a good job in public relations, so it didn't make any news in the newspaper."

Go into the elevator,

Xiao Zhang pressed the button on the first floor,

He muttered with a strange expression:

"My colleague also said that this is not the first time that someone committed suicide by jumping off the building in this hotel. In the five years he has been working, he has encountered seven cases. From the 19th floor to the top 25th floor. Yes, it’s quite weird..."

Huo Zheng frowned,

Think for a moment,

Turning to look at Lin Qi,

Lin Qi just raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Huo Zhengsui withdrew his gaze.

Open your mouth slightly,

What else do you want to say,

"Wait a minute!" A loud, loud voice suddenly came from outside.

With quick hands and quick eyes, Xiao Zhang pressed the door-opening button.

Ten seconds later,

A man with shoulder-length hair, a peaked cap and a vest, dressed in an artistic style ran into the elevator.

"Thank you, thank you." The man nodded to Xiao Zhang in thanks. His eyes drifted across the faces of the cold-faced Huo Zheng and the smiling Lin Qi, and they both stayed for a while, especially when they saw Lin Qi.

The man's eyes were still bright.

behind the man,

Two women followed.

The taller woman, wearing sunglasses at night and a mask tightly covering her face, walked into the elevator without saying a word.

The other one, slightly short and fat, dressed exquisitely, with full makeup on his face, smelled of strong perfume, glared at the man complainingly.

"We can obviously wait for the next elevator, but it's not good if there are too many people..."

The man smiled casually: "I'm afraid of being late for a good meal! I've agreed to treat you to city N's specialties, so I have to go quickly!"

Lin Qi rolled her eyes when she saw the short, fat woman carrying the man behind her back, but said nothing more.

The elevator is closed,

The short, fat woman glanced at Xiao Zhang up and down with a wary expression. She hugged the sunglasses woman's arm and moved her farther away from Xiao Zhang, just standing next to Lin Qi.

After glancing at Lin Qi's face, the short and fat woman nodded invisibly and asked the girl in sunglasses to stand next to Lin Qi.

....."What does this mean? Do you feel safer because I look better? Although Xiao Zhang is not particularly good-looking, he is indeed a just person... People... Check! It's too much to judge people by their appearance. Okay.... Lin Qi silently defended Xiao Zhang in her heart.

The silent elevator finally stopped on the first floor.

The artistic man said hello,

The short, fat woman pulled the girl in sunglasses and quickly followed her.

Xiao Zhang walked out of the elevator,

Looking at the girl in sunglasses,

"It can't be a celebrity..." However, in the next second, Xiao Zhang changed the subject again, seeming to be more interested in the previously interrupted topic, "You said that people have been jumping off the building in the hotel, is there something wrong? What's the problem?"

"This hotel was called XX Hotel a hundred years ago, and was later converted into a five-star hotel..."

Huo Zheng looked at Xiao Zhang and shook his head seriously: "There are statistical records that 183 hotels around the world are high-incidence places for suicide cases by jumping off buildings. Find any hotel with a long history and look up the suicide stories that have happened in the hotel. ..For any murder case, a legend about ghosts harming people can be made up.”

Lin Qi nodded appreciatively,

"Yes, metaphysics and science are inseparable. While studying metaphysics, we cannot throw away scientific knowledge."

Huo Zheng was stunned, his face turned slightly red, and he lowered his head.

"Thank you for the compliment, senior."

"..." Xiao Zhang looked at Lin Qi and then at Huo Zheng. Aren’t you masters and Taoist priests? Why are you suddenly talking about science to me?

But what Huo Zheng said makes sense.

Xiao Zhang did not mention the ghost speculation again.

***

Xiao Zhang led the two of them across two streets and entered a restaurant that was bustling with people.

“This store tastes really good and it’s always full until midnight! Fortunately, I made a reservation early in the morning!”

Xiao Zhang greeted the boss and was taken to an empty table to sit down.

Lin Qi saw three familiar figures at the table next to him,

Xiao Zhang was busy ordering food,

Didn't pay attention at all,

But the short, fat woman at the table next to her noticed them, opened her mouth in surprise, walked over to the other two people, and whispered something.

The next second,

The woman in sunglasses and the artistic man turned their heads at the same time. .
