Chapter 500: Strange Knocking on the Door at Midnight
Yan Wenqi did not choose to stay in the living area of Yu Yan and others.
He is different from Xiaowu. It is more accurate to say that he came to accept a task assigned by his superiors rather than to participate in the assessment of the exchange conference.
Therefore, every word and action should serve the mission objectives.
I can’t move freely like Xiaowu.
After spending a brief time with Yu Yan and exchanging information, Yan Wenqi left.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual in the room, Yu Yan locked herself in the bathroom and checked the things in the space.
Although she knew that she would not be able to use these in the actual assessment.
But when Yu Yan thought about what she heard today, she felt that one can never have too many things to save his life. Who knows what he will encounter next.
That night, Yu Yan was sleeping in the room when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.
She wanted to turn on the video to see who was outside, but she found that the room seemed to be fully equipped, but the door was not smart, there was no video, only an ordinary peephole, which was almost extinct here.
"Who?"
Yu Yan walked to the door, but neither opened it nor looked out through the peephole.
The knocking outside stopped for a moment, but there was no movement at the door.
Yu Yan knew that the people outside should not have left yet.
"Did any of you come to see me?"
She turned on her laptop and sent a message to the group chat with her second brother, Jinshan and others.
Although it was already past midnight, Yu Yan knew that even here, they still maintained the habit of keeping watch.
But after she sent the message for a few minutes, she didn't receive any reply.
Just then, the knock on the door rang again.
Even more urgent than last time.
Yu Yan's heart sank, and her mental power released a thread of spirit, which followed the gap in the door, trying to get out and see what was going on.
But as soon as she poked her head out, the knocking on the door stopped again.
At the same time, Yu Yan also saw the empty corridor.
She squinted her eyes, puzzled.
There must have been someone outside just now. She was very sure that the sound did not come from some recording device placed in advance.
At such a close distance, even if she didn't deliberately sense, her mental power would automatically detect the presence of someone.
So Yu Yan believed in her own judgment.
But where did the people go?
In the corridor outside, the door of the nearest room was nearly ten meters away from her.
Even an SSS-level sentry couldn't flash a distance of ten meters in an instant.
Yu Yan did not leave, but still stood near the door, waiting for the next knock.
This time, the interval was a little longer.
Five minutes passed before there was another knock on the door.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Three slow and heavy strokes.
Then, there were very light footsteps.
Lopsided.
Until there was no sound at all.
Yu Yan recalled the three knocks on the door just now.
The first time, it was sudden and loud, four times in a row in groups of five;
Maybe he knew she was resting in the inner room and wanted to get her attention.
Then came the second time, the force was not as strong, but the rhythm was faster, six times in a row.
It was as if he knew she was behind the door and was urging her to open it.
Finally, it was those three slow times just now.
Could this be a prank by some contestant?
Yu Yan stood behind the door, thinking.
"dong dong dong"
There were knocks on the door again, one long knock and two short knocks, not very strong, which is one of the most common knocking methods.
This time, the person outside the door spoke, "Boss, are you okay? Is there anyone knocking on your door?"
It’s Qingshui.
Today it is his turn to be on duty with Chihuo.
Yu Yan opened the door and saw Qingshui and Chihuo standing at the door.
"Boss, are you okay?"
Yu Yan shook her head, "It's okay."
"Did anyone knock on your door?"
Chihuo asked anxiously, "Qingshui and I were guarding next door just now, and we didn't hear any sound. As soon as we received your message, we came here."
"Did you just receive my message?"
"Yes, you see."
Chihuo handed over his light computer, which indeed showed that the message had just been received.
They should have come here directly as soon as they saw the news.
Yu Yan took another look at her computer and discovered that the time when the message was sent was also one minute ago.
This is impossible. It has been at least five or six minutes since she sent the message.
Moreover, she was very sure that the message she just sent was shown to be sent successfully.
After hearing Yu Yan's words, Qingshui and Chihuo were also confused.
Because they are also very sure that they didn't hear anything, and there is no possibility that they missed it due to dozing off.
"Where's the surveillance?"
During their stay, the management rights of the area were also handed over to them.
Qingshui checked the surveillance footage and saw that the corridor was always empty, as if no one had ever been here.
There wasn't even any knock on the door.
Chihuo's eyes changed when he looked at Yu Yan, and he asked cautiously, "Um, Boss, is it possible that you are too tired recently and haven't rested well?
Or was it a nightmare?"
Yu Yan still shook her head firmly.
Maybe someone outside the door was lying, but she could still judge whether her perception was real or a dream.
Yu Yan and his companions were puzzled and finally had to give up the exploration.
"Boss, how about we guard your door?"
Yu Yan rejected Qingshui's proposal.
"No, just go back next door."
"We're fine, you don't have to worry about us. It's the same whether we're next door or outside the door."
"Yes, yes, Boss, we can also be at the door."
Yu Yan: "I'm not feeling sorry for you two, I'm just afraid that if you two stay at the door, the next time someone shows up, they won't knock on my door, but will lift my blanket instead."
Qingshui:......
Blazing Fire: ...
Quite speechless.
In the end, Yu Yan still didn't let two people guard the door.
It’s not that I’m really afraid of someone pulling off my blanket.
But she had a hunch that the person who had just appeared was someone the two of them couldn't stop.
In other words, if the other party wanted to, even if Qingshui and Chihuo were outside, they still wouldn't be able to see him.
Yu Yan lay back on the bed, reviewing the whole process in her mind, and thinking about what Yan Wenqi had shared with her today.
But she thought about it over and over again twice and found no clues to explain the strangeness that had just happened.
Just thinking about this, I fell asleep.
It turned out to be a good dream, and I slept soundly until the next morning.
