The man maintained a cold expression and asked casually, "Think carefully, what are the characteristics of that person?"
Baili Xin stared at Dijia in silence for a few seconds, then rubbed his aching head and said, "I'm done. Are you sure we have to keep talking in this position? I don't care."
"…" The man's neck turned red, and he quickly took the towel off his head and handed it to the young man, "Here, wipe yourself clean and come out. I'll wait for you outside."
After saying this, the man quickly stood up and hurriedly left the bathroom.
The brightly lit room was in a mess, and the air was still thick with the smell of heather.
Looking at the clothes torn into strips on the ground, the man frowned and quickly walked to the window.
The curtains on the window were drawn tightly. After hesitating for a second, Dijia did not pull the curtains open, but chose to crawl through the curtains and open the window.
The moment he opened the window, he seemed to hear a rustling sound outside the window through the curtains.
—Snap, snap, snap.
Dijia was stunned at first, then looked at the scene in front of him vigilantly.
Although the curtains blocked his view, he was sure that there must be something on the other side of the curtains, outside the window.
It is not a small animal like a gecko or a fly, nor is it a creature like a bird, but something much larger.
What is it
person
But this is the 17th floor, who can climb up
Dijia looked back in the direction of the quiet bathroom, then looked at the curtains in front of him.
His eyes dimmed slightly, he reached out his hand to the curtains, and calmly pulled them open.
A ball of dark horror that had never been seen before was stuck on the glass like a four-legged reptile, and a pair of lantern-like scarlet eyes were almost touching Dijia's face.
Emperor Ga: “…”
What the hell.
The huge eyes moved, as if they were looking at the room. When their sight fell on the scattered white clothes on the ground in the distance, the monster's eyes suddenly stopped, and the black air around it began to churn, like boiling water.
Dijia's heart sank: "."
It reacted so strongly to Baili Xin's clothes. Could it be that it was chasing after Baili Xin
While he was thinking, he heard footsteps behind him, followed by the young man's voice, "What about my clothes?"
Dijia turned around and saw the young man walking out nonchalantly with his head wiped while wearing a loose yukata. When the young man looked up and saw the black monster, his expression froze for a moment, "Why is this thing here?"
The moment the black monster saw Baili Xin, the already boiling black energy rolled even more violently, and its ugly black face, whose edge could not be seen, twisted wildly, and its body began to scramble to squeeze in through the window gap.
This thing was indeed coming for Baili Xin.
Seeing that one of the black monster's claws had already squeezed in, Dijia quickly closed the window and the black monster's arm was instantly broken and fell into the room.
The hand was still wriggling after it fell off, as if it had life, and it crawled quickly towards Baili Xin along the ground.
Just as the black hand was about to crawl in front of the young man, a pair of black leather shoes stepped heavily on it in the blink of an eye. The next second, the black monster turned into a pool of sticky liquid without any sign of life.
The man looked at the young man with a dark face, then quickly turned around and strode to the window, staring at the monster outside the window with his deep eyes.
The monster was still going crazy. The black slime squirmed a few times at the place where the leg was lost, and new legs grew out.
It lay outside the window, roaring silently through the window, and still tried to break in without giving up.
The man stared at the monster outside the window with a pair of cold eyes and said coldly: "Get lost!"
As the word "get out" was uttered, the man was surrounded by black air and his pair of dark eyes instantly turned a strange red.
The monster's body suddenly stiffened, and the next second it fell straight out of the window and disappeared into the night sky.
The man surrounded by dark air stared expressionlessly at the brightly lit window. Only when the red in his eyes faded away did he turn around to check on Baili Xin's condition.
At this time, the young man was sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at the black slime on the ground without blinking, as if he was frightened.
As he watched, the black slime gradually changed from black to translucent, and finally disappeared completely.
Dijia walked up to the young man and his voice became gentler without him even noticing. "You weren't scared just now, were you?"
"No," the young man shook his head, "Thank you."
Dijia lowered his eyes and inevitably saw the young man's skin hidden under his yukata.
The man paused, his eyes quickly shifted to the bed next to the young man, "It seems to be coming towards you. From what you said when you saw it just now, it seems that you have seen it before?"
Baili Xin: "Yes, I have seen it at Fei's house. It would appear outside my window after midnight. One time I forgot to close the window and it crawled in from outside. But luckily I reacted quickly and chased it away."
Dijia was a little surprised, "Didn't you tell Fei Taizong and the others about this? Do you know what this is?"
Baili Xin: "I don't know what this is, but I didn't tell anyone about it."
The young man laughed bitterly, "Because no one would believe it, right? How could there be supernatural things in the world that cannot be explained by science? Even if I told them, they would just think it was a ridiculous excuse for me to avoid something."
The man's deep eyes suddenly focused, "..."
Damn it.
"But it doesn't matter," the young man said quickly, "This monster is not very powerful. As long as the doors and windows are closed, it can't get in. Even if it gets in, I can drive it away. As long as I'm a little smart when I sleep at night."
"Now is not the time to worry about it. My clothes are torn and can't be used. Could you please ask the room service to give me some clothes? They don't have to be very good, just enough to cover my body and not embarrass myself in front of others."
Dijia pursed his lips: "Okay, wait a moment."
He took out his cell phone and dialed a number skillfully. The call was connected after only one ring.
"Hello, it's me."
"Please buy me a white suit and send it to me, Moon Bay Hotel, 17th floor, room 1717."
"… "
"It's not my number, the size is—" The man glanced at Baili Xin, "About 182cm tall, thin."
When the call was about to end, he added, "Pick something nice."
After the man hung up, he looked at the young man again. Only then did he realize that the young man was looking at him with interest, holding his chin with one hand. "Who did you call?"
Dijia: "My personal secretary, he is very efficient, the fastest is fifteen minutes, the latest is an hour."
"Oh, thank you." The young man blinked, "Then it seems that I owe you another favor. Should this count as two? Helping me drive away this monster counts as one, and helping me deliver clothes also counts as one."
Dijia waved his hand casually, "Don't worry about it. Since you said you can deal with this monster by yourself, you can drive it away even if I didn't show up. I just happened to be here. As for the clothes, you can contact the room service yourself. It's just a piece of cake for me. Don't count the two favors. If you really want to return the favor, then think carefully about what the person who dragged you in looks like. I will never allow such a stain to happen in my hotel."
Baili Xin lowered his head, his face covered by his wet thick black bangs, revealing an indescribable expression, "My mind is in a mess right now, and I can't remember it for a while even if you ask me to. I just remember..."
Dijia's eyes became anxious, "Remember what?"
The young man coughed, "It's quite big."
Dijia suddenly froze, "?"
Big? Quite big
What's big
He stuttered, "Wh, what's big?"
The young man said seriously, "He was very strong. He pulled me in and pressed me against the wall with one hand. I couldn't move at all. Otherwise, you, what do you think is so big?"
Dijia laughed dryly to ease the embarrassment.
Damn him, he actually thought the youth were joking, how could he be so dirty? !
The young man continued, "Also, the black shadow is very tall and has a very strong build."
Dijia straightened his face.
Tall? Strong
There are quite a few tall people and strong men in the banquet hall tonight.
But there are not many who are tall and strong. This is a very important clue!
Dijia quickly filtered through the people attending the banquet tonight and finally locked on one person.
"Is it Zhang Xiao? He is very tall and has a strong physique. I don't think I saw him in the banquet hall, and the time is also right."
"..." Baili Xin twitched his lips, "I don't know. I don't know who will be attending the banquet tonight. Are there no other candidates? Is it possible that someone was missed?"
Dijia said seriously and firmly, "Impossible! I have filtered the visitor list, and only he fits your description. And you don't come out very often, so you probably don't know that this floor is not open to the public, and the door is always locked. Only people like Zhang Xiao who are in charge of the hotel's use rights have the privilege to open the room here."
"I guess it's very likely that he had been waiting for you. When he saw you go up to the 17th floor, he followed you up. He took advantage of your inattention and pushed you into the room under the cover of darkness to commit his evil deeds."
"This scumbag," Dijia gave his final comment coldly.
Baili Xin: "..."
He was so confident when analyzing the case.
"Well," Baili Xin picked up a towel and wiped the water droplets off his head. "There are people coming and going in the hotel. It's not necessarily the people attending the banquet who did it. Maybe we can open our eyes a little bit? Expand the scope of the target a little bit? What if the murderer is not Zhang Xiao but someone else?"
For example, you
"You have a point," the man was really thinking seriously, he frowned, "If that's the case, I need to check the hotel's surveillance and registration records. If that's the case, I have to wait a little longer until I acquire the hotel. Don't worry, it won't take too long, I will definitely not let this scum go."
Baili Xin: "..."
He called him a scumbag and felt quite comfortable doing it.
I hope you can always be so happy.
s419m:…
Although the situation hasn't developed to the later stage yet, I have already started to feel sorry for the Lord God.
Help, my habit of feeling embarrassed for others has started to come back again.
