Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Paranormal Event, Sister Man’s Adventure

"Get up and take a look."

Jiang Man was an atheist, but she still held a certain reverence for the divine.

She didn’t believe in supernatural beings, but she believed in the God of Wealth.

To put it simply, those born after 2000 have their own set of beliefs.

Moreover, this was a country where Buddhism was practiced, and urban legends had already cast a mysterious veil over the nation.

"Sis, should I take this?"

Wen Rui got out of bed, got dressed, and picked up the headset and receiver.

"Whatever."

Jiang Man said indifferently, not taking her own.

She walked over to the power switch and took a look.

Wen Rui also came over and was startled, "The switch is off? Then how is the light on?"

The young girl’s eyes widened, shivering as she looked around.

Out of fear, she hurriedly clutched Jiang Man’s arm.

Jiang Man furrowed her brow but didn’t jump to conclusions hastily.

She pulled out the room card, twisted the doorknob, and led Wen Rui out.

The lights in the corridor were flickering violently.

Although their room wasn’t at the very end, it was toward the far end of the hallway.

As soon as the two of them came out, they heard footsteps.

Mi Duo and Zhou Ying were wearing their nightgowns.

The two must have been really scared; they didn’t even change, going into battle in the buff...

Looking further, there was even a cameraman following them.

The cameraman deliberately aimed the camera at the two women.

+ Oh my god??? What the, that’s a nip slip.

+ They’re dressed, so it’s no big deal.

+ Still pretty awkward, isn’t it? At this hour, and the crew is still filming?

+ Isn’t it good that the crew is revealing the truth to everyone? It’s a problem everyone encounters when traveling, right?

The barrage of messages was now chaotic and noisy.

Suddenly, Zhou Ying shouted in desperation, "What’s going on? The card won’t work!"

"No way, this hotel is too weird! I want to leave, right now!" Mi Duo collapsed, hugging herself and shivering all over.

She wanted to run, but the endlessly long corridor frightened her once more.

"Are there even ghosts in this world?" Lu Zhan didn’t believe in such nonsense and snatched the room card from Zhou Ying’s hand to try it on the door lock.

This time there was a beep, but when he tried to turn the doorknob with force, the door wouldn’t budge.

"So bizarre, really bizarre! There must be ghosts, there really must be!" Mi Duo grew increasingly agitated.

Jiang Man’s ears were about to explode from her commotion.

She turned on her phone’s flashlight, crouched in front of the door, and shone it onto the keyhole.

Her voice was calm and unperturbed, "The door has been locked from the inside."

Her words scared the soul out of everyone present.

"Locked from the inside? You’re joking, right?"

"Is there another cameraman inside?"

Lu Zhan and Xu Chengzhou pounded on the door with force.

Thump—

Just as they were hitting it really hard, a beam of light shone out from under the door.

The lights in the room... turned on!

This commotion made Mi Duo’s legs go weak; she almost stumbled and fell.

She leaned against Bei Ling, who had no choice but to catch her with one arm.

"I really don’t believe in this nonsense! You guys wait at the door, I’ll go find the front desk," Lu Zhan instructed everyone.

Xu Chengzhou refused to be outdone, "I’ll try to find a way to get into the room and have a look."

With that, the two of them split up and went their separate ways.

Jiang Man glanced at the time, 1 A.M.

With all the noise they had made, there wasn’t a single other guest that woke up?

No one else was making a fuss?

"Where’s the room card for your room, let me swipe it again," Xu Chengzhou asked Wen Rui.

Wen Rui blinked, "It’s with Sister Man."

Jiang Man walked straight to her and Wen Rui’s room door, gently placed the card at the lock, and with a beep, the door opened.

She inserted the room card, put her hands in her pockets, and didn’t say a word, but her sharp eyes scanned the surroundings.

Xu Chengzhou immediately ran to the balcony to check the distance from the neighboring room.

For him, the third floor wasn’t high at all since he was used to being suspended in harnesses every day during costume drama shoots and was not afraid of heights.

"I’ll jump over to take a look," said Xu Chengzhou.

A group of people came out to the balcony, where the cameraman was still filming, even providing a close-up shot.

At this moment, the barrage was full screen, and viewers were both frightened and scared.

+Why go poking around? If it were me, I’d have run away by now.

+Be careful, Brother Zhou, this isn’t filming a costume drama, you don’t have wires on.

When Xu Chengzhou had jumped over, the barrage cheered and buzzed with excitement, all praising him for being a real man.

Jiang Man watched quietly, hiding in the back of the crowd, and quietly turned on the live broadcast on her phone.

Watching the number of viewers in the live room soar, she felt a distinct voice inside her.

To verify her suspicions, she turned off her phone screen and also came in front of the balcony.

She estimated the distance at a glance, about twenty centimeters between the two balconies.

When she climbed onto the edge of the balcony, Wen Rui cried out in shock, "Sister Man, what are you doing?"

"Send a few people to wait outside the door," Jiang Man said in a deep voice, not loud, but brooking no argument.

"Okay!" Wen Rui didn’t ask any questions and although she was very scared, she still called her photographer to accompany her back to the front of the room.

"Aren’t you scared?" Xu Chengzhou stood on the neighboring balcony waiting for Jiang Man.

Jiang Man took a big stride over and landed steadily on the ground.

Her brows didn’t even furrow as she replied calmly, "Why should I be scared?"

"This is the third floor, a careless fall, and your head would explode like a watermelon."

"You aren’t scared either."

"I’m a man."

"So what if you’re a man? Will your brains not explode when you fall?"

Xu Chengzhou was amused by Jiang Man’s words.

The girl spoke aggressively, but he wasn’t angry at all; on the contrary, he greatly admired her courage.

Jiang Man didn’t waste words and approached the French windows.

She gave them a push and found them completely immovable.

Since the lights were on in the room, everything inside was plain to see.

"Interesting, a secret room? What do you think, could someone be hiding in the bathroom?" Xu Chengzhou’s gaze was sharp, he wasn’t scared but actually quite excited.

Jiang Man glanced at him and said lightly, "I don’t know."

She felt around in her pocket and pulled out a round bracelet.

Like magic, with a flick forward, the bracelet transformed into a sharp little knife.

Without a word, she began to pry at the door lock with the knife.

The lock on the French windows was simple and easy to pick.

But to Xu Chengzhou, all this seemed like watching a spy movie.

"You? You can pick locks?"

Jiang Man saw that a cameraman was providing a close-up, so she responded faintly, "My dad’s a locksmith."

"No wonder... a hereditary craft..."

Before Xu Chengzhou could finish expressing his admiration, Jiang Man strode into the room.

The camera operators, not daring to take the risk, only kept the camera on the balcony.

+Who was that beautiful sister just now? She’s so awesome!

+Her dad’s a locksmith? My God, that’s so straightforward.

+I suddenly notice she and Brother Zhou are quite a match, encountering paranormal events while traveling, both of them joining forces for an adventure?

In the room, Jiang Man and Xu Chengzhou searched back and forth, but indeed didn’t find anyone.

Xu Chengzhou began to doubt himself, "Could it be? Both the French windows and the door were locked from the inside; if someone did it, how did they get out?"

Jiang Man went to the front of the door and crouched down to take a close look at the door handle.

"Huh." She let out a cold laugh, finally validating her guess.
