Chapter 21: This is too fast [5th update]

~4 min read 644 words

Resurrection, respawn?

Several guesses floated into Lin Ye's mind.

Hoshino Ai looked at the woman who had been screaming a moment ago and had now reappeared, and her heart couldn't stop panicking even more.

The temperature in the first-floor lobby was even lower, making her unable to stop shivering.

But she knew she had to restrain herself, she had to be calm.

"Phew..."

Hoshino Ai recalled the pressure she faced during her first time on stage, and the sadness and bitterness after her concert failure surfaced again.

The fear was suppressed.

Lin Ye stopped his pace and turned to look. At this moment, the female staff member revealed a smile, bowed slightly, and continued to speak,

"Guest, may I ask what your needs are, and what service I can provide for you?"

In an instant,

time stagnated once again.

*Rip! *

Just as before, Lin Ye checked the female staff member again.

There was no difference from a normal human body.

Not a single trace of anything Eerie could be found.

In other words...

Lin Ye confirmed one of his guesses.

Time Stop ended,

and the female staff member discovered her clothes were disheveled; her brain seemed a bit unable to process it.

"Guest, you are too impatient. If you have needs, Mayu can..."

Lin Ye didn't wait for her to finish, directly using his Time Stop ability to kick the female staff member out of the lobby entrance again.

"Ahhh..."

Another scream.

The female staff member disappeared.

But in less than five seconds,

the exact same woman appeared at the lobby front desk. She saw Lin Ye and again approached to ask him just like before.

This time, Lin Ye did not pay her any mind, instead returning to pull Hoshino Ai's hand into the elevator.

Huang Mao Taise and the middle-aged man, who were initially in the elevator, hadn't seen anything, but the two painful howls that rang out and the familiar 'inquiry' repeated over and over left them with nothing but fear from the depths of their hearts.

They didn't want to face it at all,

but why was this man, Lin Ye, like nothing had happened, without any reaction at all!

Finally, the moment the elevator door closed,

Huang Mao caught a glimpse and locked eyes with the staff member who had appeared in front of the elevator. His heart froze in an instant, and he instinctively felt a huge crisis.

He had been targeted; he had been targeted!

Cold sweat poured down Huang Mao.

The third floor was reached quickly,

and Huang Mao and the middle-aged man left the elevator entrance as if fleeing.

Kuroda Hikari and Kamimura Mie, who were waiting on the third floor, breathed a slight sigh of relief seeing the group finally return, but the two noticed the pale faces of Huang Mao Taise and the middle-aged man, and immediately realized what had happened downstairs.

"You guys open the doors first to check the room situation. If it's still a twin room, you'll need to go back downstairs to check in."

A single sentence made the two tremble.

Huang Mao and Tanaka Ichiro immediately used their key cards to open Room 304 and Room 307, and the two turned on the lights and rushed in to check the rooms.

"A king room,"

"mine is a king room too."

The two collapsed onto the floor one after the other.

"No need to face that monster anymore, thank goodness,"

Huang Mao Taise let out a long breath.

If he had to go to the first floor again, he really wouldn't dare!

Lin Ye walked into Room 304. The room layout was the same as 306, with no difference in soft or hard facilities. He checked quickly, inspecting the nightstand and the wardrobe, though the note for Rule 2 had been found in the bathroom. ===== CHAPTER 22 =====
