The Son of the Cthulhu must be saved [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 62 Night 2
The crystal chandelier emits bright and warm light, dispelling fear and blocking the darkness out of the window.
Until the foreman reappeared in the hall, his steps were a little hurried, and his usual polite smile was no longer on his face.
"Sorry, the signal collector is still working normally, but it has been blocked for unknown reasons, and the specific reasons are still being investigated."
"What, we spent so much money to come here, wouldn't it break down on the first day? How can people live if the Internet is disconnected?"
Someone complained dissatisfiedly, Ruan Mobei and the foreman looked at that person together.
Hmm, I don't know him, he should be cannon fodder based on his appearance.
"Sorry, we will try our best to investigate. I am deeply sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. After that, the manor will compensate you..."
Before the foreman could finish his words, a waiter hurried over and whispered something in his ear.
He Songming's face changed completely.
There was a few seconds of silence, as if thinking about how to tell the nineteen guests in the hall.
"Just got the news that all the ultra-light lines leading to the outside world from the manor have also been cut off, and the signal may...be unable to recover for a while."
"What? Does it mean that we have completely lost contact with the outside world?"
"The super-light line was cut? Is it man-made?"
"How could the line be cut off? Shouldn't there be a special protective layer? It can't be done without tools."
Ruan Mobei was not surprised at all. He drank tea calmly and observed everyone's expressions. They were either anxious, nervous, flustered, or angry. unusual.
Why are those people aiming at him intentionally or unintentionally?
Was it because he acted too calmly?
Ruan Mobei frowned calmly, and immediately put down the teacup in his hand, and asked the doctor beside him, "Can the line be restored as soon as possible?"
"This kind of thread that has been cut can't be connected, it has to be replaced with a new one." The head of the technical department not far away answered on behalf of the doctor. Say, there will be no Internet for a long time in the future?"
"Yes, and because there is no communication with the outside world, someone has to drive outside to find maintenance personnel."
The foreman obviously thought the same way. Before the head of the technical department finished speaking, He Songming said loudly: "I have already sent someone to drive outside to find a maintenance master. If there is no accident, the line can be rebuilt in two days."
"For the compensation of all guests, there are two options now. You can go back with the vehicle first, and continue your vacation after the network is repaired. The manor will keep the room and waive all the expenses for this vacation. Or you can stay here. Before the network is repaired, it is not included in the vacation time, that is, you can stay for two to three days, and similarly, the manor will exempt all fees.”
The vice president discussed in a low voice with the people around him, and said: "Let's stay here, the delay of the round trip will not be short, and it's not easy for us to take a long vacation together, so we can't delay it for two more days .
"Well, let's take a ten-day vacation as usual, and the manor will waive the expenses during this time, how about it?"
"Yes." The foreman nodded and apologized again, "Sorry for causing a lot of trouble to your company."
"It's okay." The vice president waved his hand, "One of us is missing, and the communication can't be dialed out now, can you help me find it first?"
"Okay, what is the appearance of that guest?"
The foreman just sent someone to drive outside to find a maintenance master, so he had to help find someone, and he didn't stop for a moment, Ruan Mobei felt tired for him watching it.
After a short discussion, everyone decided to search for it together. Anyway, there is no internet now, and they are idle when they are idle.
The crowd divided into four teams, and they followed the waiters to different places to look for the missing Director Li. Ruan Mobei stood silently in the team led by He Songming.
They were tasked with scouting the outside of the manor, stepping out of its glorious halls into the night.
Although it was night, there were street lamps with retro and luxurious shapes standing every ten steps or so, driving away the darkness.The sky was very clear, and clouds could be seen floating low in the sky, subtly colored by the lights.
The doctor was on the same team as him, and chatted with Ruan Mobei first. This doctor was specially invited by the vice president, and he was also unfamiliar with the others, trying to hug Ruan Mobei who also seemed out of place. .
Ruan Mobei thought it was good, and getting along with the doctor was better than those leaders. While talking to the doctor, he looked at He Songming's back.
The courtyard of the manor is very large. They walked around the periphery, but failed to find Director Li. Customers are not allowed to touch the Moon Shadow Flower Field in the east - because some people are allergic to pollen. In order to ensure the safety of guests, the manor specially Surrounded by railings.
The sandy beach of Haven was also empty, and there were no footprints that could provide clues. The sandy beach was washed extremely soft by the sea, and the gentle sea breeze was blowing, blowing away the heat of midsummer.
Everyone couldn't help but stop and look towards the seashore. Amidst the crashing of the waves, the waves washed against the shore rhythmically. Although the sky was cloudy and there was no moon, it was still sparkling because of the lights in the distance.
If they weren't looking for someone, they should be playing at the beach by now.
The manor is very big, and it took nearly three hours for everyone to stop and go, from the outside to the back, but still failed to find Director Li.
The back of the manor is against the mountains, and the road leading to the mountains can already be vaguely seen from here.
Ruan Mobei remembered that he had read from the encyclopedia that during the construction of the Catherine Manor, it was accidentally discovered that the back mountain it was relying on was a mine, from which many precious energy stones were dug out. The Catherine family made a lot of money just by developing the mine. Pen, it didn't cost much to build the manor, but instead accumulated a lot of family wealth.
By now, the mine should have been abandoned, like Haven to the East, returned to nature with the disappearance of Twilight's capital function.
"Director Li probably won't go into the mine." Everyone stopped. Unless he lost his mind and went crazy, it was impossible for him to run to the abandoned mine alone.
After searching for nothing, everyone returned to the manor, and the other three teams responsible for searching the interior of the building also came there, but they also failed to find Director Li.
It's like it just evaporated.
His luggage and belongings were all in the room, nothing was missing, only people were missing.
The foreman led the other waiters to search for areas that were not open to the public. Everyone sat in the hall, compared to the laughter and laughter last night, they were no longer in the mood to have fun.
Lily and Jonathan went downstairs to have lunch, startled by the dignified atmosphere, they looked at each other, quietly came to He Songming's side, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
Ruan Mobei briefly explained to them that when she heard that the super-optical cable was cut and someone was missing, Lily let out an "ah" in surprise, and immediately covered her mouth.
"Didn't you find that the Internet was disconnected?"
"...I was busy playing cards yesterday, and I didn't go to bed until almost five o'clock, so I just got up."
Hearing that they slept late, Ruan Mobei thought, and asked in a low voice: "Then did you hear anything at night?"
Lily and Jonathan's room was right next to his, and if they weren't asleep at that hour, it must have been haunted, and he couldn't be the only one hearing it.
"Voice? No." Lily looked at Jonathan, saw him shaking his head, and asked Ruan Mobei, "Did you hear anything?"
Ruan Mobei shook his head: "It's okay, maybe I just heard it wrong, but you two try to be careful these few days, stay with each other and don't separate."
Lily nodded, feeling a little worried after all.
"Have you ever heard of the haunted manor?" I don't know who was the first to mention the hidden legend, his voice was low, "I remember seeing it somewhere, in fact, there have been guests missing here before, only But it was all covered up.”
"I seem to have seen this before. I didn't believe it before, but now..."
"It's better to believe it than to believe it, otherwise where did Lao Li go?"
Panic spread in the hall again. It seemed that most people knew about the rumor. If so, why did they choose this place as the team building location?Catherine Manor is not the only suitable manor on Twilight Star.
Ruan Mobei watched everyone's reactions with cold eyes. Spirit Vision never gave him any hints, and he didn't know what went wrong.
He didn't tell anyone about the voices he heard last night or the figure hanging from the window.
No matter how weird the situation was, the meal still had to be eaten as usual. The waiter brought the prepared lunch, but He Songming was nowhere to be seen. He should still be dealing with the disappearance of Director Li.
He Songming's position is only a foreman, but he is fully responsible for everything in the manor, probably because he has some relationship with the powerful Catherine family.
After the meal, the team building went on as usual, everyone came, and the event that was so hard to plan couldn't just be cancelled.
The waiter pulled out the tall horse from the stable, and the professional horse trainer led everyone to ride the horse, and brought inflatable hunting guns to experience the life of hunting in the outskirts of the forest.
The manor specially raises many animals in the outskirts of the forest as a hunting ground for guests to use.The deer heads, bull heads, and sheep heads hanging on the wall of the wooden house in the west are the trophies of the Catherine family.
After the manor became a resort, the custom of hunting continued.
Laughter and laughter quickly filled the courtyard, dispelling the previous haze.Ruan Mobei saw it in his eyes and tasted some unusual flavors.
Does Director Li have a normal relationship with everyone?Why do you look like everyone is having fun and not worried at all?
Ruan Mobei was holding an inflatable hunting gun, and he was able to ride steadily on the horse with just a few pointers from the horse trainer. These horses have added genes from other planetary species. Compared with the horses in the original world, their personalities It is more docile, and basically it will not appear to go crazy and throw people off.
The feeling of having a gun in his hand makes Ruan Mobei inexplicably at ease, even though the gun is not filled with real bullets.
Ruan Mobei raised the gun horizontally, with a fairly standard posture, aiming at the dark forest. I have to say that this vacation time was really badly chosen. The night eyes interfered with the sight, making hunting much more difficult.
The figure of some kind of animal flashed past in the forest, shuttled among the shadows of the trees, Ruan Mobei held his breath, and pulled the trigger between two heartbeats.
"boom!"
A brown deer took a few steps forward and fell to the ground. The power of the gun was limited. It was not dead, but was temporarily stunned.
Ruan Mobei put away his gun, raised his hand and sniffed his fingertips, it was the residual aroma of lunch and wine, he missed the smell of gunpowder a little bit.
It would be nice if I could carry this thing with me all the time.
If a ghost dares to come over, he will shoot and explode the opponent's head.
Until the foreman reappeared in the hall, his steps were a little hurried, and his usual polite smile was no longer on his face.
"Sorry, the signal collector is still working normally, but it has been blocked for unknown reasons, and the specific reasons are still being investigated."
"What, we spent so much money to come here, wouldn't it break down on the first day? How can people live if the Internet is disconnected?"
