Takahashi did not retract his hand, but his whole body stiffened, as if his soul had been sucked out, and his body was frozen.

The touch of that thing was very strange, soft and cold, like cloth, but I didn't know what material it was made of.

It pressed against Takahashi's hand and moved little by little, like a small animal rubbing against Takahashi's fingers.

Once, twice...

It was definitely not wind, but some kind of living thing.

I didn't reach out to confirm. I couldn't detect the existence of that thing just by relying on my eyes and perception.

Takahashi's touch was not fake.

The thing suddenly appeared and suddenly disappeared.

I was still breathing, and I had forgotten how much time had passed.

Takahashi breathed a sigh of relief, and his stiff body seemed to be able to resume movement.

People who had seen the cat before were also shaken off from the state of surprise. Comments broke out one after another, and some people began to suggest that they go back to the room in fear.

Takahashi wanted to get up.

He put his hands on the floor and straightened his upper body.

When people around him saw this, some wanted to help Gao Qiao.

Takahashi's hand was about to move away.

Something grabbed Takahashi's finger...

It's the hand! Human hands!

My eyes widened, but I still couldn't see anything in the snow, and there was nothing in the gap under the floor.

Takahashi gasped, his body stiffening again.

His sudden expression of fear stunned everyone.

"high……"

The hand loosened and reached out again, grabbing Takahashi's wrist, and his nails dug into Takahashi's skin.

"Ah!" Takahashi yelled, and his whole body was pulled by a strange force, and he fell out of the corridor and landed on the soft snow.

His body sank into the snow, and half of his body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave.

"Takahashi!"

"Wow!"

"Ah! What's wrong!"

That thing didn't let go yet and continued to drag Takahashi.

The gap under the floor is big enough for an adult to crawl through. But that was also very difficult.

Takahashi was pulled, but like a high-speed train, he was dragged into the gap.

I followed and got in, only to hear Takahashi's screams echoing underground.

The screams stopped abruptly.

Takahashi's entire face was submerged in the ice water.

I reached out to touch, but only touched Takahashi's body.

His body seemed to be caught by something, and he couldn't make any movement of struggle, he could only keep shaking.

There is the sound of water...

The entire underground was filled with water. It wasn't deep, but it blocked Takahashi's breathing.

There seemed to be countless hands on Takahashi's body, holding him down. Those nails pierced Takahashi's skin, and blood came out.

My scalp feels numb.

Not one ghost, but many ghosts here...

In the darkness, I couldn't see anything, and the yin energy I felt was unified.

I'm not sure what I just guessed.

Maybe it's a ghost with many hands?

Maybe a monster, some kind of monster...

Suddenly, there was light in the darkness.

Countless pairs of eyes just appeared in front of me, staring at me.

I was so scared that I drifted back for a while.

They saw me, their eyes were numb and dull, and they just stared at me.

This didn't seem to be a warning, nor was it malicious.

They were killing people, but not for the purpose of revenge, and they had no intention of having fun. They were just doing it step by step, as if they were doing mechanical repetitive work.

Takahashi's struggle gradually stopped, and life passed by unstoppably.

Those eyes turned and looked at Takahashi.

Finally, all of Takahashi's life was gone.

When a person dies, the surrounding Yin Qi seems to fluctuate slightly.

Those eyes rolled upward, toward the floor.

I don't know what they are going to do.

They ignored me, and I braced myself, not daring to relax.

The next second, those eyes disappeared into the darkness.

Someone was shouting outside the gap, I heard footsteps above me, and people inside the house were running.

Unlike Honda and Ono's death, Takahashi died in front of everyone's eyes. It was a naked murder. The ghost is killing people.

I heard crying and shouting.

I floated up and went directly into the room.

There was someone in the room overhead.

Mrs. Shimada was sitting in the room upright, as if silently chanting sutras. Her granddaughter-in-law was holding her great-grandson, panicking and unable to calm down. The child named Dashu was being strangled by his mother. He felt a little uncomfortable, but he did not dare to move. His face was pale, and his eyes were swaying from side to side, looking at his mother and his great-grandmother.

The door was opened and Mrs. Shimada's daughter-in-law came in. She was supported by her son. Her husband Hikaru Shimada followed the two. All three of them looked pale.

"Mother..." Shimada Hikaru knelt down in front of Mrs. Shimada. His wife's body was limp, and she fell to the ground in an inelegant posture, supported by his son.

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Shimada's voice was low and she spoke slowly.

"Someone... someone is missing... was pulled under the house by something and dragged in... now..." Shimada Hikaru licked his chapped lips and could not continue.

His wife cried out of fear and hugged her son.

The young Mr. Shimada was also in bad condition, and he couldn't hide the panic in his eyes.

"I see..." Mrs. Shimada murmured, "I understand."

"Mother!"

"There's nothing to be afraid of. No matter what it is, it can't kill all dozens of us. The road will always be open, and some of us will be able to get down the mountain."

"But, this... I don't know if that thing will..." Shimada Hikaru hesitated.

"What are you afraid of? This is our family's hotel." Mrs. Shimada sneered, "Nothing has happened in so many years. The three people who died were all members of the crew. What does it have to do with our family? You It’s time for them to find out what they’ve messed with.”

Shimada Hikari felt strangely calm after hearing this.

I stared at Mrs. Shimada. I still remember what happened when she pulled the red silk scarf out of Honda's mouth. This old lady can be said to be the most suspicious person.

But what she said sounded somewhat reasonable.

"Are you ready with all the things I asked you to prepare?" Mrs. Shimada asked again.

Shimada Hikaru nodded, his eyes twinkling.

"That's fine. We have separate meals from the crew, and we don't need to use anything in the hotel." Mrs. Shimada nodded, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Mrs. Shimada seems to have been prepared.

I wanted to observe the actions of this family again, but the scene in the dream changed.

My consciousness was in a trance, and I could feel that Takahashi's soul seemed to have ascended to heaven and left this world.

At the same time, another person's consciousness flooded into my mind.

I heard the sound of vomiting and saw many people in Datong Shop with pale faces and depressed expressions.

Yin energy permeated the room, and a damp, fishy smell spread throughout the room.

The voices of the people around him were indistinct, and people's minds seemed to have become confused.

I tried to keep myself awake and aware of the yin energy around me.

The cold wind blew across my face, and snow flakes fell on my face.

I woke up completely.

It was already dark outside the window. Snowflakes flew through the open window and fell on people.

The man I possessed trudged up from the ground, dazed. He heard groans, and the people around him were lying on the ground, as if they were sick, and it was difficult to move even a little bit.

The object of possession in the dream has changed. The person in front of me looks familiar, probably from the makeup artist's side. This Datongbu is also different from the one where Takahashi and Honda lived before. It is a room for women.

The woman I possessed staggered to her feet, coughed twice, went to the corner of the room, and found her luggage. She put on her thick coat and pushed the person lying on the ground.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

No one answered.
