Chapter 166: Chapter 161 Who Are You

Someone was calling for help at their own front door!

Xiao Yi hurriedly turned on the light and rushed to the door!

He passed through the narrow and dim corridor, using the faint light shining from the room to locate the door lock.

Thump, thump-thump.

The sound intensified as Xiao Yi approached the door, confirming it was the sound of knocking. However, Xiao Yi paid no attention to these details, he just twisted the door lock and opened the door!

Immediately, a pair of ghastly pale hands squeezed through the newly opened crack of the door.

Those flailing hands, stained with still-warm, wet blood, and their nails overly sharp, seemed intent on tearing something apart.

The chilling scene caused the audience in the live stream room to be startled.

But Xiao Yi remained unreactive; he knew those hands couldn’t grab him.

The hands couldn’t invade further into Xiao Yi’s room because Xiao Yi... had forgotten to open the door chain.

It seemed the other party could only squeeze in a pair of hands and could go no further.

"Ah... I know you’re anxious, but can you wait a moment for me to take off the chain first?"

"..." The other party seemed to hesitate for a moment, then obediently withdrew their hands.

[This... These hands are clearly abnormal, and... It’s somewhat difficult to maintain that an abnormality was blocked by a security door chain.]

[This is the victory of modern technology!]

When Xiao Yi closed the door, unfastened the chain, and opened the door again to look outside, the owner of the hands had already disappeared.

Outside, it was dim, only the soft glow from the emergency exit sign casting a green veil over the surroundings.

And in the distance, the darkness was immeasurably deep, it was uncertain whether it was empty or something was hidden there.

"...What’s going on? Where is the person?" Xiao Yi frowned, "Is some child not sleeping and pranking around at night?"

Xiao Yi couldn’t help but sigh, closing the door, but...

Thump, thump-thump!

As if to burst his eardrums, the knocking sound not only resumed but also suddenly grew louder! But Xiao Yi had just confirmed that there was no one in front of his door!

Xiao Yi did not open the door again; instead, he inexplicably turned his head back.

At the end of the long, dim corridor, there was something there.

It was a corpse, never seen before, yet inexplicably familiar...

Thump, thump-thump!

The knocking persisted.

Her face immersed in the darkness, away from the bright room, was clearly visible with lips as red as a watermelon slice freshly cut.

Then, the lips immersed in the darkness moved slightly, emitting an eerie voice.

"...Save me."

"..." Xiao Yi’s world suddenly became engulfed in pure darkness, the darkness instantly filled his entire field of vision.

Xiao Yi couldn’t see anything.

Soon after, his consciousness felt as if it had left his body, suddenly experiencing a sensation of falling, yet he still stood firmly.

Then, Xiao Yi couldn’t feel anything else.

It felt like just a moment had passed, yet it seemed like a long time, when Xiao Yi came back to himself, and the world before his eyes returned to normal.

But at the moment, Xiao Yi was standing in a brightly lit room, and the body... its whereabouts were unknown.

Not a trace was left behind, and there was no stench of rotting flesh in the air, as if nothing had happened at all.

"What’s going on here?" Even Xiao Yi felt a bit baffled now, "Ever since I entered this hotel, I’ve been seeing all sorts of strange things. Could there be hallucinogens or something here?"

The audience in the livestream was also unsettled.

From their perspective, Xiao Yi had encountered an abnormality, but right after that, the livestream went black for a second or two. When the image returned, it showed a confused Xiao Yi.

Everyone was confused about what exactly had happened.

"...Hmm? What’s this?" Xiao Yi then noticed that he was holding a page from a book, not knowing when he had picked it up.

He picked it up and read the extremely brief paragraph on it.

["My life is always dark, therefore, I never expect to see the sun. I help others only because I want to stay alive, and I understand clearly that others help me only because they want to stay alive too."]

"What is this gibberish? It makes no sense."

Xiao Yi crumpled the page and threw it onto the table, still unclear about what was going on with this hotel.

But before Xiao Yi could think further, he suddenly heard a noisy sound.

This time, it came from outside the window.

Xiao Yi opened the window and saw that a large crowd had gathered in front of the hotel’s main entrance, and Clements was there, arguing with them.

No, more accurately, the people were yelling at Clements about something.

Having just experienced such an event, Xiao Yi was already wide awake; he immediately left his room to see what was going on at the entrance.

As he approached the entrance, Xiao Yi heard a haughty voice.

"Who the hell do you think you are to order us around? We can go wherever we want!"

Xiao Yi frowned and quickened his pace, arriving beside Clements.

The shouting man was the hat man, wearing a bizarre outfit, thinking himself trendy with a backwards cap.

As soon as the hat man saw Xiao Yi beside Clements, his haughtiness diminished somewhat.

With another middle-aged man behind him advising not to be too rash, he finally shut up, albeit reluctantly.

Xiao Yi asked Clements, "What’s going on?"

Clements replied emotionlessly, "These people were planning a road trip camping, but their vehicle broke down on the way. They saw the lights here, so they came over to this hotel."

Xiao Yi then asked, "So, how did the conflict with them start?"

"It’s not really a conflict," Clements explained. "I just gave them some sound advice, suggesting they shouldn’t camp outside, as it’s dangerous here. But, just a few suggestions seemed to have angered them. I don’t know why, but they seemed to look down on me."

"Ah, I see." Xiao Yi nodded slightly.

Indeed, this hotel seemed a bit dangerous; Xiao Yi himself had just experienced something strange. Clements’s advice to not wander around was well-intended, but these people didn’t seem to have their heads on straight, unable to even take a bit of advice.

"So, we..." Xiao Yi looked at Clements, about to say something, but then he suddenly paused.

"...Hmm?" Clements also looked at Xiao Yi, "Is something wrong?"

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes and asked Clements:

"You... who are you?"
