Chapter 52 Room 207
Looking at this string of bloody handprints, even Liu Haoyu couldn’t help but feel a chill, let alone Qiu Leling.
The young girl now felt her legs trembling, her whole body shaking.
She really wanted to go home now.
The strangeness before her had completely exceeded her imagination, and at the same time, she knew that a terrifying existence seemed to be hidden in this dilapidated apartment.
Liu Haoyu calmed himself down.
“It’s safe now, let’s go.”
“Okay… okay.”
Qiu Leling quickly followed behind Liu Haoyu, getting closer to him now.
In such a grim and terrifying place, the suspension bridge effect was particularly evident for a weak girl like her.
To be honest, her first impression of Liu Haoyu was that he was a bit of a turn-off.
But now, she felt that this man was incredibly reliable, and her heart was racing like a startled deer.
If he had any intentions towards her, let alone being his girlfriend, she would even pay to take him home!
Of course, this was just a fleeting thought.
Seeing Liu Haoyu’s extremely calm expression, Qiu Leling knew that he didn’t have any interest in her.
At this moment, Liu Haoyu naturally didn’t know what Qiu Leling was thinking.
He arrived at the main door.
After a night, the door lock, which was still intact, was now completely damaged.
The lock cylinder had been forcibly pulled out from the side.
When the door lock was damaged, it meant that this room was definitely unusable tonight.
They must find a new safe house.
However, there were still other people in this apartment, and as the door lock was gradually destroyed, the people in the apartment would inevitably be crowded into the last room.
And if the murderer hiding in the crowd, could directly wipe out everyone.
But then Yin Lin Li Er Gu Ling Ti Ba Ling * Meng, everyone would die.
The two walked out of the room and into the corridor.
However, there were already a few people standing in the corridor.
It was a combination of two men and one woman. One was tall, with a green dragon tattooed on his strong arms.
The other man seemed to be a student, but for some reason, there were bloodstains on his clothes and face, making him look very suspicious.
As for the last woman, she was dressed provocatively, her qipao almost opening to her waist, holding a ladies’ cigarette in her hand, and looking very displeased and agitated.
Although the three had different expressions, they were also vigilant towards others and could not hide their fear.
After all, in this escape game, besides finding the killer, successfully surviving to the end was also considered a pass.
This meant that if they could eliminate everyone else, they could leave directly.
So Liu Haoyu also dared not relax his vigilance. He shielded Qiu Leling and stared closely at the group of three in front of him.
Judging by the performance of these three, it was obvious that the woman in the qipao was the one in charge.
She was likely a powerful executive, and the tall man was probably her bodyguard.
As for the thin, bloody man, Liu Haoyu couldn’t tell. Perhaps they were strangers who wanted to band together for warmth.
However, compared to the woman and the man with blood on his clothes, Liu Haoyu was more concerned about the tall man, who was almost 1.9 meters tall.
Now everyone was in an extremely dangerous battle royale game, when you have enough power, who knows how low people’s moral bottom line will be.
Now that the woman was still bossing him around, and the displeasure in his brows indicated that their master-servant relationship might not last long.
Since it was already morning, some more people came into the corridor one after another.
Including Liu Haoyu and Qiu Leling, there were probably more than a dozen people.
In this narrow corridor, with so many people at once, it became extremely crowded.
As Liu Haoyu sized up these people, they also noticed Liu Haoyu.
Some of their eyes were confused, some curious, some indifferent, and apart from that, there was more fear and vigilance.
Everyone dared not get too close to each other.
The temperature in the corridor was very low and very humid, making it feel like a gust of cold wind was constantly blowing.
“Everyone, listen to me first. I am Xu Wenbing, the Chairman of Greymetal Metallurgy Co., Ltd. of Jiangquan City,”
At this time, a man in a suit with a smile on his face walked out from the crowd.
“Everyone is a victim who has been pulled into this so-called escape game,”
“Last night, a lady died tragically in room 207. I know everyone must feel a bit scared and uncomfortable about this,”
“But we should not be bound by those damned rules. I think we should try to pry open the windows on the first floor,”
“I took a look before I came up. Although the windows on the first floor are sealed very tightly, as long as we find tools,”
“Even a screwdriver can pry open the wooden boards and escape from here.”
It was obvious that this man wanted to be the leader here, using his status as chairman to win people’s hearts, which was indeed a good strategy.
As long as a certain number of people gathered, even if they couldn’t pry open the wooden boards on the first floor, they could still attack and exclude others.
But don’t forget, this was a supernatural event.
Having more people gathered did not necessarily mean safety.
Once they were with a fierce ghost mixed in the crowd, it was possible that everyone would die at once.
And Liu Haoyu, who had been with Qiu Leling all night, could basically confirm that she was not a ghost.
If she were a ghost, she wouldn’t have slept so soundly and would have come to trouble him long ago.
After all, Liu Haoyu knew that with the table leg he had in his hand, it might be useful for hitting people, but it was really not enough to deal with ghosts.
“Although we are all strangers, we are now in the same boat, so listen to me first, go find some tools, and see if we can leave from here.”
Although many people present were not convinced by Xu Wenbing, they now had to try to see if they could pry open the windows on the first floor.
The large group then split into small groups, searching in the rooms from the first to the third floor.
However, no one dared to set foot in room 207 where the person had died.
But Liu Haoyu was an exception. He stood at the doorway of room 207, inspecting it carefully.
The lock on the door was not only broken but also slightly ajar.
Just by standing at the doorway, one could feel the smell of blood and decay coming from inside.
Liu Haoyu gently pushed open the door, and the first thing he saw were the bloody handprints on the wall.
The size and shape of this handprint were exactly the same as the bloody handprint seen in the restroom before.
Could it be that something left the restroom last night and came to the second floor to kill the woman in room 207?
Liu Haoyu dared not jump to conclusions, because if this were true, it would be too horrifying.
He walked ahead, and Qiu Leling, not trusting anyone else, had no choice but to follow Liu Haoyu with him.
Following the bloody handprints.
The bloody handprints extended from the doorway to the bed in the bedroom.
There were also signs of a violent struggle on the bed.
But the corpse… was gone.
