Chapter 118 Strange Voices at Night

Amian looked at Xia Yi: "What do you think?"

"Let's leave it for now." Xia Yi said the answer that the three of them had long been in their minds.

"Then let it go first." Amian and Lei Yu nodded.

At the end of the evening's action, Xia Yi and Ruozi left the crowded office and spent the night in the next room.

The weather team also chose the rooms next to them, and they all lived nearby and could take care of them if they had something to do, so as to avoid being ambushed by the boss halfway.

Seventeen hours have passed since they entered the secret room, and the players are a little sleepy.

Ruozi asked Xia Yi to rest first, but Xia Yi was not polite and lay on the bed with only the bed.

As he was half asleep and half awake, a strange sound suddenly came from his ears.

"beep--"

Du? He sat up, Ruozi quickly came to his side, drew out his short sword to be alert.

The sound was not loud, and he listened carefully. The sound did not come from the next office, and there was no beeping in that kind of thing. It was a farther place, probably the southeast corner.

What sound is this? What sound is it? What does it mean? Xia Yi thought.

Ruozi listened carefully for a while and had a strange expression: "It sounds a little familiar."

"What's the sound?" Xia Yi asked.

"My grandma used to use a plug-in kettle and the sound of hot water boiling," said Ruo Zi.

Xia Yi thought about it. The girl said that the old-fashioned big butt-mouthed hot water kettle. When the water is boiled, this kind of hot water will make a sound similar to this, but the tone is a bit different, which is why Xia Yi did not associate it with it at the first time.

"Go and see?" Ruozi held the short sword and was eager to try. She had not forgotten her thoughts before entering the secret room. She wanted to kill a few bosses to repay Xia Yi.

"It's too dangerous." Xia Yi shook his head.

He doesn't like head-on combat, and it's best not to use those props at once.

They don't even know what their opponents are now. The battle is too reckless. He hopes that the Weather Squad or Scar Squad will take a look first.

Perhaps those who survived in the secret room, except those who are skilled and brave, are all cautious players. After hearing the news, Scar Squad and Weather Squad chose to pretend that they didn't hear it.

As for the two women who were solo and swimsuits, they didn't dare to go out at all, and they didn't even dare to look over the window.

Xia Yi waited for a while, and the beep continued without any change.

"Call me if there is any change." He lay back on the bed, used his arms to make a pillow, and went to sleep.

On the third day, as the sun shone into the room, Ruozi woke up Xia Yi.

"Let's go to that dumb room." Xia Yi shook the arm of the pillow last night, and his arms were numb.

At the southeast corner, other players also arrived. They stood in the corridor, wondering which room the sound of the last night came from.

The direction and distance of the sound can be distinguished, but the specific direction of the sound cannot be distinguished by the human ear.

They opened several doors and saw the answer in their hearts.

One of the rooms is a tea room, and it is obvious that the sound is mostly from this room.

Ten people turned the tea room upside down, and there was nothing in the room except the water dispenser in the corner, a tea table, and a cabinet with bulk tea leaves.

No kettle.

Abi wanted to touch the tea leaves, but Amen pulled his hand back.

Tea may be related to the sound of a kettle, and if you encounter it, you may provoke a boss.

Everyone returned to the hall and looked at the garden on the way. Everything was normal in the garden. The headless old man disappeared last night.

Standing in the hall, they pondered about what happened last night.

"Why would it be ringing without a kettle?" Amu broke the silence.

"A boss was thirsty in the middle of the night and brought a kettle to make tea. The old man often couldn't sleep at night." Lei Yu said.

"There are insufficient clues and there is no way to guess. There may be subsequent changes in this sound. Let's take a look tonight. If it is appropriate, let's come and have a look." Ahmian wanted to come over to investigate at night, but he didn't want his team to take the risk alone.

Thunderstorm hesitated for a moment, looked at Bingxue and said, "Okay."

"We won't participate, you can't share the clues you found with us." Xia Yi turned around and left, "Let's go search the room."

"We also..." The two women in the lone Xingke and the swimsuit wanted to imitate Xia Yi.

"Then it's decided, go search the room first." Ahmian interrupted them and forced a decision. If the two women in the swimsuit and the solitary guest didn't go, what would they use as a cushion?

Walking on the way to search the room, Ameng and Lei Yu were puzzled. Judging from what happened last night, the new team was very brave, so why did they refuse this time?

Ruozi was also curious.

Walking all the way to the laundry room at the innermost part of the corridor, Xia Yi said to Ruozi: "I'm sure where this place is."

"Where?" Ruozi thought to herself, is this related to the sound of the kettle?

"It is called a nursing home, but it is actually a mental hospital. All those who take in mentally ill elderly people." Xia Yi said.

"Ah?" Ruozi raised her head in surprise.

"The door needs a key to get out. The garden is locked, and the doors of all rooms can be opened from the outside, and the keys are hung on the string. This restricts the people in the nursing home. Ordinary elderly people do not need to be restricted, so there are only two possibilities left. One is that the elderly inside is dangerous, and the other is that the nursing home is an illegal institution."

Xia Yi walked past a row of washing machines, stood in front of the window, and looked out of the nursing home. The fog outside the window seemed to be closer.

"Then why isn't it an illegal imprisonment agency?" Ruo Zi asked, lifting the lid of the washing machine. Xia Yi stopped her hand and prevented her from rushing.

"First of all, it's because of the ghost under the bed." Xia Yi said, "Because you have heard too many horror stories, you may feel that it's normal for ghosts to appear under the bed, but this is not normal at all."

"If it's just this one, it doesn't mean anything. Maybe the boss stays under the bed just to remind him of the key, or maybe the boss has other ideas, but the kettle ghost from last night was the same."

Xia Yi looked at Ruo Zi, the girl's expression was serious and her eyes were wide open, which reminded him of Xia Xiaoxiao who followed him and asked questions when she was a child. Xia Xiaoxiao also looked like this at that time.

He wanted to pinch Ruozi's face, and halfway through it, he patted his head: "The more I thought about the sound of last night, the more I felt, the more I was doing, it was not like a serious kettle. When I arrived at the tea room, I didn't find the kettle. It was not the sound of water boiling, but the sound of people imitating it."

"There is a boss imitating the hot water kettle?" Ruo Zi was startled. She couldn't imagine what the scene it was.

"Imitating the sound of a kettle in the middle of the night, and lying under the bed at night is not normal from a human perspective. In addition, the facilities of this nursing home really do not want to be a prison institution. The prison institution should be set up so that the door cannot be opened, but there is no here."

Xia Yi finished speaking in one breath: "But this is just my guess. Ameng and the others want to find a kettle, and they will know when they go."

"I understand, this is why I refuse to participate." Ruo Zi nodded.

Her doubts disappeared, and she reached out to lift the cover of the washing machine to search, and Xia Yi stopped her hand again.
