Chapter 40 Alice Hell 11 - Blood and Cabinets(1/2)
"Wash together?"
"No need, there's only an hour."
"Have you seen the bathroom? Who washes first?"
…
When Yu Xing walked to the bathroom on the red cashmere carpet, she saw two men standing at the door discussing.
It's Yi and Han Zhiyong.
Yi tried to ask Han Zhiyong if they wanted to take a shower together, but Han Zhiyong refused.
Apart from these two people, the two girls Han Xinyi and Huang Bai were not here, and neither was Bai Mian.
No one was wearing a mask at this moment, and the straps behind the masks were tied around their waists.
Yu Xing could see that the two people seemed to have varying degrees of scratches on their bodies, and their faces were also stained. They probably encountered ghosts, but they didn't know which one was screaming upstairs.
In short, they seemed to be less anxious. They probably finally understood the dangers of occupying the room and calmed down.
When Han Zhiyong saw Yu Xing coming, he immediately stopped discussing anything and instead closed his mouth and gave him a provocative look.
Yu Xing: "..."
Oh, stare at me?
Yu Xing smiled back at Han Zhiyong.
Although Han Zhiyong had just rejected Yi, he did not intend to leave after Yu Xing, Zeng Lai and Huai arrived. Everyone wanted to take a shower early and then occupy the room with peace of mind. It was better than occupying the room while worrying about whether
Some unexpected situation occurred and it was too late to enter the bathroom during bathing time.
Alice doesn't like others being late. She has been reminded of this many times by the nun and the housekeeper in just a few hours. Obviously, this condition must be adhered to, otherwise the price may be terrible.
"Hey, you are all here."
The next moment, two girls came over.
Huang Bai and Han Xinyi didn't know when they bumped into each other, so they came over together. She looked at the men blocking the door strangely, and then waved her hands: "I don't know what you are doing, but anyway... come on?"
Huai: "Come on?"
Zeng Lai: “What oil should I add??”
Yu Xing said: "Come on, too."
Huang Bai happily walked into the women's bathroom. Han Xinyi pursed her lips, raised her eyes at Yu Xing, and followed her in. Zeng Lai then turned around and asked Yu Xing confusedly: "What oil should I add?"
Yu Xing didn't know either, he didn't get the absurd brain circuit, he just responded casually.
He spread his hands: "It's not important, let's go in."
Huai said nothing and raised his legs first, as if he didn't want to make a fuss like Zeng Lai.
After several people followed him in, Han Zhiyong, who had just refused, frowned.
Forget it, let's stay together.
The slap in the face always comes so quickly.
Everyone had checked the bathroom before, but it was not bath time and there was nothing there.
This time they went in, and the bathtub in the center of the bathroom was filled with water. Steam was rising upwards, and the water mist filled the air, fogging up the mirrors mounted on the walls.
The light of various colored gems refracted in the water, making the water surface look strange. It felt like a witch mixed the potions together and made a pot of poisonous soup.
Huai passed the large bath and walked towards the individual wooden bathtubs surrounding the bath: "I use the bathtub here..."
I got stuck mid-sentence.
Yu Xing also walked towards a bathtub at this time, and then his eyes were bright red.
The bathtub that was empty before is now filled with blood!
You don't feel it when you are far away, but when you get closer, you can smell the unique smell of blood lingering on the tip of your nose.
An unsettling feeling spread.
Zeng Lai paused: "Do you still need it?"
Huai: "...No."
Yu Xing silently stopped her legs and walked towards the bath with a dull face.
What does it mean when blood appears in the bathroom tub during their allotted time?
I don't know, no one knows.
They subconsciously stayed away from the bathtub. They looked around and asked, "What should we do? Just wash like this? Where are the changes of clothes?"
"Go to the closet and have a look." Yu Xing said.
He remembered that there were eight locked wardrobes. Now that the time was up, maybe they could be opened.
Sure enough, when several people walked to the closet, they were able to open the cabinets that could not be opened before. There was a label on the cabinet door.
"Please put the changed clothes into the closet. The new clothes will be automatically put into the closet after everyone has finished bathing."
The title of each person is also written below the reminder, and the eight wardrobes correspond one to one.
At this moment, Bai Mian also came in. A man came to Jinqian quietly, with a frighteningly low presence.
Huai found his wardrobe and said calmly: "Okay, there is no real danger for the time being. Let's wash up and leave early."
After saying that, he took off his shirt.
He is a little thinner than he looks, a bit emaciated, and does not seem to be the kind of deduction that depends on his physical skills.
Yu Xing also opened the cabinet and took a look. There was a white bath towel hanging in the cabinet and there was a grid on the upper level.
There were all men present, and Yu Xing was not too scrupulous. He took off his clothes in a few seconds, wrapped the towel around his waist, covering his important parts, and then dug into the pockets of his trousers.
A piece of wire...
A lock...
A utility knife…
A small mirror...
These were all things he had found in the utility room on the second floor. Now that he had entered the utility room, there was no reason not to grab something.
He put the things in the grid, and then he glanced at the mirror again, but he didn't see his "good friend" in the mirror.
So far, nothing unusual except for the bathtub.
Several people got out of the bath one after another. Although the bath was dimly lit, the effect of relieving fatigue was immediate.
The hot water wrapped around the skin, and Yu Xing breathed out lightly.
His constitution gave him a natural affinity for warm things. Warm things were always better than coldness, better than the coldness and curse that flowed through his limbs and were carved into his bones.
Several people fell silent and immersed themselves in the short-term comfort.
It lasted like this for about two or three minutes.
In the silence, Zeng Lai couldn't help it.
Taking a bath is a relaxing thing, especially if you are a strong person, you won't feel so nervous, and you will want to talk to others as soon as you relax.
He glanced beside him, Huai's curly hair was dampened by the moisture, and he was closing his eyes not knowing what he was thinking, while Xing frowned slightly, seeming a little uneasy.
Zeng Lai's eyes lit up and he found the topic. He asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with you?"
Yu Xing: "...It's okay."
Pushing her hair back from her forehead with her hands, Yu Xing closed her eyes and silently counted the time in her heart.
Zeng Lai refused to give up: "You don't look good."
Yu Xing sighed. When he felt that he should not have a rosy complexion, he replied: "Anemia."
Yes, he was calculating how long he would take to soak in the bath. Due to his physical condition, he couldn't soak in the bath for too long, otherwise he would faint directly.
Alas... people's joys and sorrows are not the same.
When he said this, Huai opened his eyes with some surprise, glanced at him, and interjected: "I thought you were one of those whose abilities are related to ghosts... I didn't expect it to be a physical reason."
To be continued...
