Chapter 189: Chapter 184 Night
Xiao Yi couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly.
The dream from last night had continued into today. What on earth was going on with this hotel?
The folks in the live streaming room also felt puzzled.
"I’ve seen those people again... This ’instance’ has been going on for a while, but I still can’t make heads or tails of it."
"To be honest, I’m starting to feel like the ’dream’ explanation is getting less and less tenable."
"I originally thought this ’instance’ was two worlds, inside and out, with only Brother Xiao Yi able to switch between them by entering dreams. Both worlds seemed real, with certain similarities yet certain differences. But then, suddenly Brother Xiao Yi and everyone ended up in that prison, and it scrambled my brain. Suddenly, giving up on thinking seemed quite nice."
While Xiao Yi was pondering, the couple had already finished their argument.
To be more precise, it was the wife who had been one-sidedly berating the husband and had locked him out of the door.
"...Ah."
The husband also saw Xiao Yi at this moment, and knowing that the latter had seen everything that just occurred, couldn’t help revealing an embarrassed and awkward expression.
"I..." The husband scratched the back of his head, and said to Xiao Yi with an awkward smile, "As you can see, she kicked me out."
But Xiao Yi stepped forward and said, "Impressive! You’ve actually locked her inside the room!"
"...What an emotionally intelligent remark."
Hearing Xiao Yi’s response, the husband’s expression eased slightly, "Thanks for your concern... Ah, why is it like this? Although I have indeed lost my job and temporarily can’t support the family, she lived off my earnings before! She’s been spending my money without contributing anything, so what right does she have to yell at me?"
The husband began to lament by himself.
However, Xiao Yi wasn’t too keen on knowing about other people’s family situations, so he asked:
"Speaking of which, didn’t you say you were leaving?"
"You don’t know?" The husband forced a smile, "My wife did want to leave, but we have no means to do so. Moreover, it’s much more dangerous outside than staying inside the hotel, which is why she made me swallow my pride and arrange a stay here."
"Dangerous? You mean the Werewolf?" Xiao Yi asked again.
"Yes, what other dangers could there be?"
"..."
That morning, Xiao Yi had already confirmed that there was no such thing as a Werewolf, so what was this situation now...
Xiao Yi immediately headed toward the basement. The husband didn’t ask any questions and went to knock on the door, pleading for the wife to open it.
And when Xiao Yi got to the basement, he discovered that... although the bloodstains had been cleaned, there were still indelible marks left behind, completely different from the basement he had seen in the morning.
The shattered walls, the ground, everything was exactly the same as last night.
"Hm..." Looking at this scene, Xiao Yi couldn’t help but lower his head in thought.
The viewers in the live streaming room also began to discuss.
"Could there be a possibility of multiple personalities? Since they are different personalities of a person, they would see different worlds. Or maybe some people are other personalities, hence they appear and disappear."
"With such a situation, still talking about multiple personalities? That pattern has pretty much been established and doesn’t match well with the current situation."
"Could it then be ’Inception’?"
"It could also be a ’brain in a vat’."
"Uh, uh, are we just wildly guessing now? Dismiss any claim without evidence."
"Hm, I understand now," Xiao Yi suddenly said at that moment.
This statement scared everyone.
Oh no! Did he really understand? If he understood something that everyone else was clueless about, wouldn’t that crush everyone else’s IQ?
Then, Xiao Yi continued, "I have fully understood that I don’t understand. Actually, there’s not much to think about. It’s simply that yesterday’s dream continued, and it connected quite ingeniously."
"..."
The live streaming room fell into silence.
Xiao Yi gave up thinking and went to the hall only to find Clements and Nania chatting with Shao Ling and the black-haired woman.
Indeed, they were all still here.
Xiao Yi approached Clements and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Clements glanced at Xiao Yi and answered, "Nothing much, just that they seem to want to play a videotape here, and conveniently, there’s a big-screen TV in the hall."
"..." Xiao Yi didn’t ask anything further but went forward to check it out himself.
The black-haired woman took out a videotape covered in blood-red letters and said with feigned mystique,
"This is not just any videotape, it’s a cursed one. It’s said that if you don’t send this videotape out for others to watch within seven days after viewing it, something bad will happen."
Xiao Yi was speechless. Were they still trying to get themselves killed? Hadn’t last night’s events taught them anything?
The audience in the live stream was also speechless.
[Uh, what era is this? Still playing out this trope, how tacky.]
[A curse, huh? Pretty old-school, takes me back to that summer of my childhood.]
[Holy shit! It’s Sadako!]
[But seriously, what’s a videotape?]
[Holy gap in generations!]
Nania seemed indifferent, spreading her hands and saying, "So, you’re planning to pass the curse on to us?"
The black-haired woman smiled, "It’s definitely a hoax. Or are you saying you’re scared to watch it, even knowing it’s a lie?"
"I don’t care," Nania said coolly. "Go ahead and watch it if you want."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi asked Nania,
"Auntie, didn’t you use to be afraid of this kind of stuff? Are you sure you’re okay?"
"There’s nothing to be scared of," Nania said with a light smile.
"..." Xiao Yi still felt uneasy, but since things had come to this point, he wasn’t going to worry too much about it.
Then the black-haired woman started playing the videotape, and the TV screen soon lit up with an image.
All there was on the screen was an ancient well, and the picture was quite blurry, punctuated with jarring static noise now and then.
Suddenly, a woman in a white dress with long black hair covering her entire face crawled out of the well and eerily walked towards the people outside the screen.
"...!" Shao Ling immediately jumped up from his chair, startled.
The black-haired woman teased, "What’s the matter? Scared already?"
"I’m not scared!" Shao Ling insisted, "I just need to use the bathroom urgently."
"Hey, don’t leave during the viewing; something bad will happen!"
"That’s all fake, I don’t care! What can it do to me, even if something bad does happen? I’m not afraid!"
With that, Shao Ling seemed keen to prove his courage and immediately strode off towards the bathroom.
The black-haired woman didn’t say anything more; she didn’t really care, convinced that the videotape was fake, and had only mentioned curses to create a scary atmosphere. If he wanted to leave, he could leave; nothing bad was surely going to happen.
But then, at that moment! Just as Shao Ling took a couple of steps, he suddenly slipped, banged his neck against the edge of a nearby table, and fell to the ground without making a sound.
The twisted angle of his neck left no doubt—he was dead.
"...Huh? Dead just like that?" Xiao Yi was dumbfounded. "Isn’t this a bit too casual?"
Suddenly someone was dead, and everyone present except for Xiao Yi was shocked.
But then something even more terrifying happened.
The woman in the screen actually extended her arm out of the screen, and her foot stepped over the frame of the TV!
