Human race, but was chased by girls from all races

"If he can't fly, and doesn't know flying magic, then it's almost impossible for him to get from the tenth-floor balcony to the lower-floor balcony. Because the tenth-floor balcony is much larger than the lower-floor balcony, and the balcony is not a climbing wall, there is no place to grab at the bottom. On such a smooth wall, even if the climbing skill is maxed out, it will be useless. If he goes from the tenth-floor balcony to the lower-floor balcony, the only result is that he will fall and die. Of course, this conclusion is based on the premise that he does not know flying magic."

"Also, to be slightly offensive, I think even with your skills, Xuexue, it's impossible for you to climb down from the tenth floor to the lower floors."

Xu Weiwei analyzed carefully and explained her judgment with reason and evidence.

"Hmm..." After listening to Xu Weiwei's explanation, Shirley pursed her lips lightly, and after thinking for a while, she whispered: "You are right, Weiwei. Indeed, I can't do it either. The wall is too smooth, there is not even a window, and there are no other protruding or concave places to grab."

Thinking back to the hotel's exterior walls, Shirley came to this conclusion.

"But I also said that the premise of this conclusion is that he doesn't know any flying magic. If the factor of magic is taken into consideration, the scope involved is too broad." Xu Weiwei added.

"As to whether the manager can do magic, I think I can give an answer. No." At this time, Lin Tianlang said, "My perception of the flow of magic power is still very accurate. I can still judge whether a person is a magician and whether there is magic power flowing in his body. I did not feel any magic power flowing in the hotel manager's body, unless this person's realm is very, very high, even higher than Principal Vincent's realm, and he can completely conceal his magic power surging breath, making it impossible for me to detect it. But I don't think that's possible."

As Lin Tianlang's magic control and perception improved, the effect of his S-level magic talent became more and more obvious. With this talent, even Principal Vincent could not completely hide his magic flow in front of him. Lin Tianlang himself felt that if even the principal could not completely avoid his perception detection, then it was almost impossible for anyone in this world to do so. Except for the Demon Lord he had never met.

"That's almost certain. Without the elevator, it is almost impossible for the hotel manager to reach any lower floors from the tenth floor. If he is on the ninth floor, then maybe it is really possible for him to reach the eighth floor, because the balcony on the ninth floor is semicircular, the same shape as the eighth floor. If he falls vertically, as long as he is agile, he still has a chance to grab the edge of the balcony on the eighth floor." Xu Weiwei said.

"Oh...well, why are you guys guessing? Let's just go up to the tenth floor and take a look. Then we can knock on the door of room 0 and we'll know!" Long Xinyu said.

"Ahaha...Xiaoyu is still as impatient as ever." Aniya said with a slight smile.

"That's right, why are you in such a hurry? Solving puzzles can't be rushed, you have to think about it slowly." Lin Tianlang raised his eyebrows and said.

"Well... I, I, I'm just anxious! What's the matter, what's the matter, what's the matter! Woohoo... I don't like this kind of puzzle solving, and I can't help, so what..." Long Xinyu pouted and said aggrievedly.

This scene made everyone laugh. Adjusting the atmosphere made everyone feel much more relaxed.

Once again, everyone returned to the elevator car and headed to the tenth floor. Once again, when the car passed the second floor, there was a slight lag. This had become an inevitable event, and it was almost impossible not to notice it. This lag did not occur randomly, but occurred every time it passed the second floor, whether going up or down.

The elevator took everyone to the tenth floor. Everyone walked out of the elevator and stood in front of Room 0 on the tenth floor. Shirley, who was at the front, walked up first and knocked on the door politely: "Mr. Manager, are you in there?"

There was no response, and the door to Room 0 was closed.

"Mr. Manager, are you in the room?" Shirley knocked on the door again and raised her voice. But there was still no response from the room. She repeated this two or three times, but still no response.

"Hey, Xuexue, move aside, let me try!" Long Xinyu rolled up her sleeves, walked forward, and pounded on the door. It must be said that the dragon girl's attack was different. Unlike the gentle knock of the graceful elf girl Xue Lisi, Long Xinyu's heavy pounding could clearly feel that the door seemed to be broken.

"Hey, is anyone inside?" Long Xinyu said loudly while knocking on the door. Seeing her actions, the people around her were embarrassed. It must be said that the red-haired girl was really simple and direct.

But even so, there was still no response. It seemed that there was probably no one in Room 0.

"This is really strange. It seems that the manager is not hiding in Room 0." Xu Weiwei said with narrowed eyes.

"Well, how about we exclude Room 0 on every floor one by one?" Qiuyue suggested.

This is the only thing we can do under the current circumstances, although there is not much hope.

Everyone took the elevator and knocked on the door of Room 0 on each floor, checking one by one. But they couldn't find the hotel manager. It seemed that the manager really disappeared on the spot and could not be found anywhere.

The third round of searching was fruitless, and everyone returned to the first floor again. The first floor was the only place that was not bound by the building rules that the manager had just mentioned, and everyone could move freely on the first floor. In order to prevent any other situations, even if there was no manager watching, everyone decided to abide by the building rules and try not to break them.

"Everyone, there is no doubt that the puzzle solving has begun from the moment the innkeeper disappeared, or the moment he asked us to go downstairs." After returning to the first floor, Lin Tianlang gathered everyone together and then spoke.

"If I'm not mistaken, just like the previous library puzzle, this inn is the same. The whole building is part of the puzzle. There must be secrets hidden in this building that we need to find."

"Yes, that's right." Xu Weiwei nodded in agreement: "And the answer to the puzzle... is very likely to let us find the whereabouts of the missing manager."

"Then let's just lay out the information we already have, just like we did in the library," said Shirley.

"Okay, let me tell you then." Lin Tianlang nodded, and then began to present the information he had.

First of all, this hotel has three floor rules. The first is that within the floor range from the second to the tenth floor, all people cannot act separately, otherwise the elevator will not start when it detects that there are still people on the floor; the second is that within the floor range from the second to the tenth floor, only visiting is allowed, and no whereabouts or traces are allowed, and visiting of room 0 in these floor ranges is prohibited; the third is that the manager of this hotel is not subject to the restrictions of the first two floor rules.

In fact, leaving aside the third rule that highlights the manager's privileges, the first two rules alone are strange enough. Everyone must be together and cannot be separated; no traces can be left between the second to tenth floors, which is obviously an attempt to hide some secret.

In addition to the information about the building rules, there is also information about the hotel building itself. This hotel is a rectangular block with a base of 30x30 square, with a total of ten floors. Each floor has six rooms, numbered 0 to 5, of which rooms 1 to 5 can be entered and exited, and room 0 is locked. Secondly, the corridor layout and room layout on each floor are exactly the same.

Next, each floor has a balcony. Except for the first and tenth floors, the shapes of the balconies on all the even-numbered floors are different, while the shapes of the balconies on all the odd-numbered floors are the same as those on the even-numbered floors below, but there will be a pot of green plants to distinguish them. The green plants on every balcony on the odd-numbered floors are the same.

“That’s probably the information.”

After sorting out all the information, Lin Tianlang said.

"You missed one." Xu Weiwei reminded: "I believe everyone should have noticed it. Every time the elevator passes the second floor, whether it stops on the second floor or continues to rise or descend, there will be a slight lag."

"Yeah, that's right, it feels... well, like something is stuck." Ania said.

"It seems everyone has noticed it." Shirley said softly, "I wanted to add this point just now."

"Yes, the elevator always gets stuck when passing the second floor. This is indeed strange." Lin Tianlang nodded and said.

"Is it possible... that there is a non-existent floor between the second and third floors... or between the second and first floors?" Xu Weiwei touched her chin and speculated, "For example, the 1.5th floor, or the 2.5th floor?"

"Well...Vivi, when you say that, it feels like the situations in horror movies in the human world...well..." Ania clenched her hands tightly and said nervously.

"Horror movie?" Long Xinyu was completely confused by this new term. She knew the word "horror", but movies really touched on her blind spot. Shirley knew that the last time she went to the human world, Lin Tianlang had already taken her to see what a movie was.

"Hmm...why does it seem like everyone knows it, but I'm the only one who doesn't know?" Long Xinyu said while gritting her teeth.

"Well, next time... let Tianlang take you to the human world, and you will know what it is by seeing it with your own eyes." Shirley said softly.
