Fire Game

Chapter 178: corpse

, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the fire game!

Liu Xiazi hung up the phone, looked at his teammates in a daze, and found that everyone looked distraught.

A family should be tidy.

What does it mean?

Is this a last word?

At this time, Zhou Zhilin, the missing front desk lady, came out from nowhere, and was startled when she saw so many people around the front desk.

"What's the matter with you?"

she asked doubtfully.

Zhu Chaoyang regained his senses and turned his head, "What did you do?"

"I... went to the toilet."

Zhou Zhilin was a little embarrassed. It was obvious that she probably took advantage of this rare opportunity and went to play for a while.

"Someone called you just now."

Zhu Chaoyang didn't make things difficult for her either.

"Who is it?"

"It's from the hospital."

Liu Xiazi answered with a hint of sadness, "The old lady passed away, and the hospital notified Mr. Wu to take care of the funeral."

Zhou Zhilin turned pale with shock and was stunned for a while.

"I'll notify the boss immediately."

She quickly picked up the landline and called Wu Ting's office, but no one answered, so she had an idea and called Kong Lijuan's room instead.

"Sister Kong, it's not good. The hospital just called and said that the old lady passed away."

After a while, Kong Lijuan and Wu Ting went downstairs in a hurry. They were a little surprised to see all the players there, but at this time, Wu Ting didn't have the energy to bother with these, his face was ugly, and he and Kong Lijuan were about to go out together.

"Boss Wu, wait a minute."

Zhu Chaoyang called him to stop.

"Mr. Zhu, I have something urgent to do now, so I'll talk about it when I come back."

Wu Ting's face was as deep as water, and his attitude was not friendly, but it was understandable that anyone who encountered such bad news would probably not feel much better.

Zhu Chaoyang didn't mind, and reminded: "Boss Wu, I just want to tell you that before the old lady left, she left a last word."

"What last words?"

Before Wu Ting could speak, Kong Lijuan who was beside him asked first.

Zhu Chaoyang glanced at this plain-looking woman, and said slowly: "The old lady said that a family... should be neat and tidy."

Wu Ting and Kong Lijuan were both taken aback.

Including the front desk lady who left her post without authorization, she was in a daze.

"Walk."

Wu Ting spoke in a deep voice, did not stay any longer, and led Kong Lijuan quickly out of the hotel gate, got into the car and left despite the wind and rain.

Watching Wu Ting's car disappear, the players looked at each other.

"Linlin, your boss and this Miss Kong seem to have a very close relationship. He was not in his office, but ran into the employee's room."

Zhu Chaoyang withdrew his gaze and looked at Zhou Zhilin at the front desk again.

Faced with such a meaningful question, Zhou Zhilin was a little at a loss. Knowing the sensitivity of the topic, she could only defend the boss: "They should be talking about something."

Zhu Chaoyang didn't give up, deliberately made a nonchalant tone, and said casually: "They are both single, even if there is something, it's normal, maybe they can make a good story, this Miss Kong is said to have dedicated her youth to After leaving the hotel, Boss Wu really should give someone an explanation."

Zhou Zhilin was very embarrassed. It wouldn't hurt if the two whispered these words in private, but the point is that there are still so many people around.

Glancing at the other players hastily, she said hastily, "Don't talk nonsense, the boss and Sister Kong are just ordinary subordinates and subordinates, very innocent."

"Why are you so sure?"

The corner of Zhu Chaoyang's mouth twitched, "They really have something, and they won't tell you."

"Our boss is not that kind of person!"

Zhou Zhilin seemed to be really in a hurry, and when she was anxious, it was inevitable that she would make mistakes.

"Sister Kong may like the boss, but the boss definitely doesn't like Sister Kong..."

Zhou Zhilin stopped suddenly, realizing that she had slipped her tongue, annoyed and regretted, but the words had already been spoken, and it was hard to take back.

"So, Boss Wu doesn't like Miss Kong?"

Zhu Chaoyang climbed up the pole.

Zhou Zhilin was at a loss, wishing to sew her mouth shut and gossip about her boss. If the boss knew about it, she would definitely lose her job.

"Don't worry, we are just asking, and we will never leak it to Boss Wu."

Zhu Chaoyang was serious and sincere, and the other players nodded solemnly.

The words have already been said, and it was too late to rein in the precipice, Zhou Zhilin broke the pot and said helplessly: "Then you have to keep your promise."

"I swear."

Zhu Chaoyang raised his palm.

"Okay, no need, I trust you."

Zhou Zhilin gave him a coquettish look, and motioned for him to put his hands down. Even though she knew the boss had left the hotel, she subconsciously lowered her voice.

"What do you want to know?"

"Tell me about the triangular relationship between your boss, the boss's wife, and Sister Kong."

Zhou Zhilin was a little speechless when she heard the words, and reiterated: "I've said it before, it's just Miss Kong's unrequited love. Our boss is a very serious person, and he won't do anything to betray the boss's wife."

"But your lady boss is dead now."

"It won't either."

Zhou Zhilin didn't think about it, it seemed that this firmness was not just due to the employees' protection of the boss.

"When the proprietress was still alive, Sister Kong should have admired the boss more. The other employees in the hotel should be able to see this. Blame anyone. Besides, Sister Kong and the boss are very grateful people, they respect and love the old lady very much, so they will never do anything that crosses the bottom line."

"What about your lady boss?"

Zhu Chaoyang asked curiously: "All the employees know, is she the only one who can't see Sister Kong's admiration for her husband?"

"I don't know about that."

Zhou Zhilin shook her head, "Anyway, all I know is that the proprietress and Miss Kong have a very good relationship."

Speaking of this, Zhu Chaoyang keenly observed that there was a strange look in the girl's eyes, as if she had some secret to hold back.

"Why do you think so?"

he asked calmly.

"I feel it."

Zhou Zhilin's eyes dodged, she was obviously lying.

"Linlin, this is the end of the story, just finish what you have to say, I swear, what do you want from me?"

"I told you everything I know."

Zhou Zhilin defended.

"Did you really tell me everything?"

Zhu Chaoyang stared straight at her with burning eyes.

Zhou Zhilin, who had nowhere to hide, held on for a while, but was finally defeated and bit her lower lip, "... Well, actually, I was in the corridor once, I really didn't mean it, I just eavesdropped accidentally Here, the proprietress is talking to Sister Kong."

"What did they say?"

Zhu Chaoyang knew the point was coming, so he asked immediately.

"The proprietress told Sister Kong that she was willing to divorce the boss and fulfill both the boss and Sister Kong."

Unexpectedly, Zhu Chaoyang blurted out: "Are you kidding me?"

"real!"

Zhou Zhilin said anxiously: "I heard this with my own ears, but Sister Kong didn't agree."

Zhu Chaoyang couldn't believe it.

"Your lady boss, what's your name?"

Jiang Wan asked out loud.

Zhou Zhilin looked over.

"Han Jia."

Zhu Chaoyang was incredible.

This Han Jia actually offered to divorce her husband?

This was completely beyond his expectations.

If this incident is true, then Wu Tingkong Lijuan's killing for personal reasons, which he has always believed, will undoubtedly be untenable.

After all, people have taken the initiative to propose the beauty of adults, so there is no need to take risks.

But can a woman really be so magnanimous?

The employees in my store were worried about their husbands, not only did not get angry, but on the contrary took the initiative to give in.

Zhu Chaoyang thought it was unreasonable, but Zhou Zhilin didn't look like a liar.

Could it be that.

Another possibility exists?

Han Jia is actually advancing by retreating, pretending to be fulfilled, but actually probing?

"And after that?"

he continued.

"After that... Sister Kong probably felt embarrassed and offered to resign, but the proprietress didn't agree."

Hearing this, Zhu Chaoyang was really confused.

According to Zhou Zhilin's description, the proprietress Han Jia seemed to be a fairly reasonable person, and she would not have caused a murder, unless Wu Ting and Kong Lijuan acted like animals.

But the most important thing is that although the two of them are sneaky, they don't look like beasts devoid of humanity.

Could it be that everyone guessed wrong, Han Jia's death was a serious accident?

"Don't doubt Ms. Kong and the boss. They really have nothing. Sister Kong is pitiful enough. Everyone thought that after the death of the boss's wife, the boss would accept her, but she didn't at all. She always regarded the old lady as her own." Mother took care of her, now that the old lady is gone, she must be very sad..."

Zhou Zhilin muttered in a low voice, seeming to sympathize with Kong Lijuan.

Speaking of this, Zhu Chaoyang could only nod his head, and it was not good to continue entanglement.

"Then you are busy first."

The players left in no hurry and walked to the rest area to sit down.

"Do you want some water?"

Zhou Zhilin shouted.

"Need not."

Rejecting Zhou Zhilin's kindness, Zhu Chaoyang smiled wryly and said, "Could it be that you really blamed the good guy?"

"But Wu Ting is really weird. He scoffed at demons and goblins, but he set up a secret room in his office and secretly worshiped **** statues. This is not what a normal person should do at all."

Things are unpredictable.

Liu Xiazi, who had stood up to speak for Wu Ting before, now became Wu Ting's firm doubter.

"He just believes it. He can be aboveboard. He is just a businessman, not an official. A businessman is superstitious. This is not a big deal at all. There is no need to cover it up. He is duplicity. It’s because of a guilty conscience.”

After hearing this, Zhu Chaoyang also felt that it made sense.

"But everyone should have heard what Zhou Zhilin said just now. The proprietress Han Jia seems to be a nice person. There should be no reason to force Wu Ting and Kong Lijuan to kill her, right?"

"Can you stand firmer? Didn't you always insist that the two of them were working together?"

Liu Xiazi said indifferently: "You are still talking about killing them."

Zhu Chaoyang showed embarrassment and touched his nose.

"still have a question."

Tsui Hark said, "What does the old lady's words mean before she died? Why did she say such things?"

The whole family should be tidy.

It sounds scary.

Not a last word that a normal person would leave.

certainly.

That old lady is definitely not a normal person, but she shouldn't leave such an evil remark out of nowhere.

"There's only one explanation."

Zhu Chaoyang remained expressionless, "She is also possessed by a ghost."

By all accounts.

"Don't look at me like that."

He explained unhurriedly: "Think about it, the old lady is only suffering from a mental illness, not a terminal illness. With the care of medical staff, she should not die so suddenly, and since Kong Lijuan and Wu Ting are not staying The hospital is enough to prove that they thought the old lady would not be in danger for a while, but the old lady died suddenly and left such a strange sentence."

"So there is every reason to think that it was done by ghosts."

Liu Xiazi moved her lips, but found that she couldn't refute.

"The whole family... If it is really the work of evil spirits, then I am afraid that the proprietress Han Jia really has something to do with it." Tsui Hark murmured.

"If Li Gui is Han Jia, it means that she killed his mother."

Li Shouze frowned slightly.

Ye Xin remained calm.

In the last dungeon, Liu Jie also killed the old village chief, nothing surprising.

"According to the current situation, the identity of the evil spirit should be related to the operator of this hotel. Most likely, it is the proprietress Han Jia who died unexpectedly."

Jiang Wan remained indifferent and calm as always.

"If it is determined that it is her, there is a way, maybe we can end the game early."

"any solution?"

Liu Xiazi hurriedly asked.

"Find her body and destroy it."

Jiang Wandao: "According to the experience shared by the players so far, destroying the corpse of the evil spirit can effectively damage the evil spirit, and even directly obliterate the evil spirit."

Liu Xiazi's eyes lit up.

Isn't the most difficult thing about the firewood game is that the evil spirits are invincible and untouchable?

So in the game, players are almost at an absolute disadvantage, and all they can do is to survive.

But now, listening to the psychologist, it seems that the evil spirit is not completely "invincible".

She comes from an official organization, and her words will definitely not be false.

"Wouldn't it mean that if we find her body, we can pass the level?"

Before Liu Xiazi could get excited, someone broke her beautiful fantasy.

"Han Jia has been dead for so long, his body should have rotted long ago."

Qi Wanli said frankly.

"So what if it rots."

Zhu Chaoyang didn't take it seriously, and his face flashed a stern look: "Even if it's a pile of ashes, you have to give it a try."

"But we can't get out of the hotel at all." Tsui Hark raised another almost insurmountable problem in front of the players.

"You can't let Wu Ting do it, can you? He certainly won't do it."

"Even if he wants to~lightnovelpub.net~, I'm afraid it's because of his powerlessness."

Ye Xin spoke.

"Weakness? What do you mean?"

Zhu Chaoyang was puzzled.

"Officer Chen said that the proprietress Han Jia died abroad. If there are no accidents, her body may not have been found."

Zhu Chaoyang was taken aback, a little suspicious.

"I'll ask."

He got up, went to talk to Zhou Zhilin at the front desk, walked back after a while, and looked at Ye Xin in surprise.

"How to say?"

Liu Xiazi hurriedly asked.

Zhu Chaoyang took a light breath.

"Ye Xin is right. The proprietress drowned abroad. Her body fell into the sea and disappeared."
