"It's so cold..." someone whispered to himself.

The woman went to close the window, but it was still cold inside. There was no heating, and the coolness from the ground made people's bones ache.

When I thought about the ghosts hiding under the floor, I felt a little afraid.

The ghosts showed no intention of attacking me, but their mere presence made me uneasy.

The woman shook her body and began to walk out.

After walking in the corridor for three to five minutes, she saw someone.

I was pleasantly surprised.

Because the person she met was Han Ji!

The woman raised her head and said hello with some difficulty.

Next to Han Ji was the female translator. The two of them were also wrapped in coats, with their hands in their pockets, looking as if they were freezing.

It seems that their condition is much better than that of women.

"Where are you going?"

The three people walked into the same corridor and walked in the same direction.

"Going to a hot spring?" the female translator asked.

When I heard this, I almost fainted.

Do these women have any brains? There were people dead there, but they still wanted to go to the hot springs? !

"Hmm... I want to go to Miss Sakai's place. Is there a small hot spring pool at Miss Sakai and Mrs. Yoshinaga's place? I really can't bear the cold." The woman twitched her lips, "What about you?"

"Same for us." The female translator was a little embarrassed, "The hot spring pool at Mr. Nan's place is used by men. That open-air hot spring... alas..."

"If there are a lot of people, we should be able to borrow the hot spring pool used by the Shimada family, right?"

The two people were talking, and Han Ji just followed them.

As we chatted like this, the woman's memory naturally emerged.

Filming ceased after Honda drowned. Originally, the director decided to take a few days off to sort out Honda's affairs. After calling the police, the police took Honda's body away, but for the crew, the death of a staff member meant various aftermath problems. The ensuing heavy snow blocked roads and signal interruption, which were all big troubles, leaving the crew trapped in this hotel.

In the woman's mind, Honda drowned after she slipped and fell into the hot spring pool and failed to get up. She didn't even know Honda died in the women's bath. It sounds like the whole thing was an accident.

As for the deaths of Ono and Takahashi, she had no idea at all. I only heard that some people were feeling unwell, as if they had a sudden illness.

At that time, the director and team leaders had asked everyone to stay indoors.

Men and women already live far apart. The bathrooms are not in the same place. If the big hot springs were still open, it would be possible to meet. This makes the delivery of messages difficult.

As for the residence of the director and the main actors, it is located further inside the hotel. It is a separate building connected to the house where Datong Shop is located by a corridor. The big hot spring is on the Tongpu side, and the suite with the small hot spring is in that building.

I can only get fragments of the contents of these people's consciousnesses. However, after possessing Honda for such a long time and following him around this hot spring resort for more than ten days, I also had the outline of the entire building in my mind.

I didn't think about it carefully at first, but now, I suddenly discovered the problem.

As the owners, the Shimada family lived in the building where the Datong shop was located. They seemed to have sorted out several storage rooms and converted them into bedrooms.

Is this simply due to the host’s hospitality?

The three women had now walked down the long corridor and entered another building.

Outside the open-air corridor, you can see the white snow.

My steps paused for a moment.

I saw the Ksitigarbha statue covered in snow. The red silk scarf originally tied on it was gone.

The woman quickly walked down the corridor.

"Why are you walking around? Didn't you say you should stay in the room?" There were people in the corridor, they were the crew and screenwriter.

"It's too cold. Many people feel uncomfortable." The woman said first.

The field manager glanced at Han Ji and the two, "Miss Han, Miss Bian. Are you here to see Mr. Nan?"

"We want to ask Ms. Sakai to take over the hot spring pool. The house over there is really too cold." the translator replied.

The woman nodded and looked expectantly at the stage manager and screenwriter.

I looked around.

The room temperature of the house here is higher, and there is much less yin in the room.

I couldn't help but frown.

"Go. Don't run around. Don't disturb Ms. Sakai and Ms. Yoshinaga."

After receiving the agreement, the three of them bowed and continued walking forward.

They knocked on Miss Sakai's door.

The temperature in the room caused a blush to appear on their faces.

After explaining their purpose, Miss Sakai's assistant immediately agreed to their request.

"Is the room over there very cold? Is there no heating?" the assistant asked.

All three of them shook their heads.

"The pool here is a bit small, but it's very warm. There are props from the crew in the room, so just be careful." The assistant lady led the way and first took them to say hello to Ms. Sakai and Ms. Yoshinaga.

Ms. Sakai looked a little sad, while Ms. Yoshinaga, the veteran actress, gave the three of them a few loving words.

"If there is no heating over there, why not let everyone over there come here and squeeze in? The wives of the Shimada family are also working hard, right? They gave up their suites to us, and I feel very sorry." Ms. Yoshinaga said.

Ms. Sakai nodded absently, opening and closing the phone screen.

Ms. Yoshinaga called her assistant and wanted to discuss it with the director.

The three women went to the small hot spring first.

They wanted to change clothes and take a bath, but I didn't follow them.

The small hot spring is not big enough for me to keep a distance from the woman I possess.

But I soon felt the Yin Qi coming from the direction of the hot spring.

I thought about it and floated in.

Heat rushes to my face.

The temperature of the hot spring seems to be very high, making the surrounding area enveloped in steam.

The yin energy did come from the hot springs, and there was the same fishy smell.

However, nothing weird happened.

After soaking in the hot spring for more than ten minutes, they felt a little dizzy.

The ghosts did not attack them.

After changing their clothes and coming out, they were all refreshed.

This makes me a little confused.

After leaving the room, I heard many voices.

It seems that the person called by Ms. Yoshinaga has arrived.

The women were all in low spirits, so Ms. Yoshinaga arranged for them to take a bath separately and poured hot water for them.

I saw the women of the Shimada family.

Mrs. Shimada looked dazed and lost her previous composure.

Daiki Shimada followed his mother and stood among the women. He seemed a little uncomfortable and lowered his head shyly.

"Drink some tea, take a rest, and don't catch a cold. Once the road is cleared, we can go down the mountain." Ms. Yoshinaga said gently, and handed hot tea to Han Ji and the three of them.

The woman took the tea, thanked her, and asked doubtfully: "Are we going to stop filming? Let's all go down the mountain?"

"Yes." Ms. Yoshinaga's expression changed slightly, but she did not elaborate.

I guess she already knew about the deaths of Ono and Takahashi and knew there was something wrong with the hotel.

The woman did not become suspicious and sat in the corner of the room, drinking tea quietly.

Han Ji told the translator that he was going to see Nantian and left first.

I wanted to follow him, but the woman I possessed sat still and started chatting with Ms. Sakai's assistant, making it impossible for me to follow Han Ji.

After taking a bath, the women in the room seemed to gradually regain their vitality, chattering and becoming lively.

They talked about the interruption in filming, complained about the sudden heavy snow, and complained about the signal interruption. There was no signal and there were still people playing with their phones and looking for chargers and sockets. There are relatively few sockets in this old hotel, which is not convenient.

"Mrs. Shimada, aren't you going to take a bath?" Ms. Yoshinaga asked Mrs. Shimada.

Mrs. Shimada shook her head silently. Her daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law were hesitant to speak. Daiki Shimada turned his head and observed the expressions of several women.

"Sorry, I used the hot spring first... The hot spring water should be living water, right?" Ms. Yoshinaga apologized, and then said, "The weather is too cold. Although you may not be used to it, it is better to take a bath to avoid catching a cold. Dashu-kun Still young..."

The others fell silent, a little shy.

The woman also stopped talking, her face was hot, and she did not dare to look at the women of the Shimada family.

Several people apologized, and others followed suit.

I saw that Mrs. Shimada's face was stiff, so she forced out an awkward smile.

"No. I just don't like hot springs. Our family runs this hotel, but... we are not used to hot springs." Mrs. Shimada said, her words were as stiff as her expression, and not convincing at all.

"That's it..." Ms. Yoshinaga did not continue to say anything, but she and Ms. Sakai exchanged a look, and their expressions became subtle.

Good night everyone~
