Chapter 71

The inn owner was skeptical about the middle-aged man's words, so he took out his cell phone to call the repairman. Sure enough, the female voice heard in the hands-free state repeatedly reminded, "The phone number you are dialing is not in the service area."

The loss of contact between the repairman and his group made the other guests in the inn restless. Their faces were filled with anxiety, but not just because of the bad weather.

The fear of the unknown is eroding their reason. The police have also reported it and people have looked for it. Now everyone has no choice but to wait.

"I can't wait, I'm going to find him!" Li's wife suddenly made a different voice.

"You go alone? What should I do when I encounter danger? The missing people also have our relatives and friends, and no one is in a hurry. But now it is too dangerous to go out. Maybe they just got lost and came back when the fog dissipated." The speaker was a classmate of a young man in the search team. There were three of them coming to travel, and two of them joined the search team.

Actually, this guy is right. He entered the fog one by one, which is similar to giving away a person for free. Moreover, there were four young men walking with him in the last wave, but there was still an accident. If someone acted alone at this time, it would be a waste of life.

"If there was no accident, how could I let go of the rope?" the gray-haired middle-aged man pondered.

His words made the woman who was about to calm down excited again. She had to go out to find someone no matter what, and no one could stop her.

"Uncle, didn't you say that seven people die here every seven years? You should be very clear about what happened to them~" I squatted on the balcony and shouted at the crowd downstairs.

"Who?"

"What dead person?"

"No, it's my first time here to travel."

"I heard you two just whispered, but you still don't admit it? You encouraged the elder sister to go out and find someone, wasn't you going to get enough of the seven people you said?"

What I am most afraid of is their revenge, so I have something to say, not afraid of offending people. Moreover, I suddenly exposed the content of their private chat, and wanted to see how they reacted.

"Seven people?"

"What's going on?"

"Six people have been missing, only one is missing..."

"Don't listen to her nonsense, we haven't said it--"

The seeds of doubt can often double the effect when buried in the appropriate environment. The guests downstairs were already frightened and heard that some of them knew the "insider information", which was better to kill by mistake than let go.

The two middle-aged men were surrounded by other guests. Although they did not act extremely, they would not give up if they did not ask for the reason.

Especially the relatives of those missing, they felt personal pain and were more excited than others.

Suddenly, the door in the room was knocked on, and Chen Qinghan walked over to open the door. The person outside the door was the inn owner.

She told Chen Qinghan that she wanted to go into the house to chat. Chen Qinghan politely invited her into the house. As soon as the boss entered the house, he sighed quietly.

After chatting for a few seconds, she also made it straight to the point, saying how difficult it is for her to run this inn by a woman. She lost her father at a young age and lost her husband at middle age. She was able to appear on talent shows.

But she left the guests downstairs without caring about it. Was she just coming to us to complain?

Of course not!

Her focus is that she needs this inn to make ends meet. My comments just now have caused panic among customers, so I hope I will come forward and stop the rumors.

"She didn't lie, the guest disappeared for no reason, and the family was so worried. My girlfriend only reminded them out of kindness, even if there was a clue to finding someone, why... the boss was anxious to suppress this clue. Is he trying to hide something?" Chen Qinghan's tone was careless, as if he was just talking casually, but the inn owner immediately coughed and smiled unnaturally.

"How is this possible? I'm more anxious than anyone else to get angry. I'm the one who least wants them to have something wrong."

The boss was full of grievances and changed his tone: "But now people outside cannot enter, and everyone is panicked and may even have problems. You have to stabilize the people's hearts first before you can come up with a solution."

"What the boss said is that we also hope that those words are just rumors and just explain them clearly, otherwise we will not be at ease in our lives."

When the inn owner saw that the bitter scene didn't work, he smiled embarrassedly, said 'That's it, that's it', turned around and said goodbye, and went back downstairs.

"You, I'm afraid the world will not be in chaos." Chen Qinghan and his boss left, turned around and glared at me.

"No matter whether it is a rumor or not, the man clearly intended to provoke the woman to find someone. Do you believe that he is just a simple low EQ and is just talking about what he wants to instigate people to take risks at the critical moment?"

If that man hadn't mentioned the death of seven people in seven years before, I can believe that he said those were purely unintentional.

But the problem is that he said that the purpose of the two of them coming to this inn is definitely different from that of others.

I just want to confirm the seven-year theory?NONO~

"In front of everyone, they may not tell the truth." Chen Qinghan walked to the balcony and squatted shoulder to shoulder with me.

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell the truth. Once this seed of doubt is planted, someone will pay attention to their every move."

"You don't care if you watch the fun." Chen Qinghan heard the boss going downstairs and persuaded the excited guests below to pull me back to the room.

"I'm also a way to help those missing people. What will happen if the seventh person doesn't disappear for a long time?"

"I don't know, wait and see."

Chen Qinghan may have been communicating with colleagues about work before, but now he is free, he has time to care about what is happening in the inn.

The boss persuaded the guest to return to the hall, and the woman who wanted to go out to find someone was also persuaded to come back.

The two middle-aged men were lying on the 'rumor' and refused to let go, and the others didn't ask for any substantial content.

However, they made a request that two middle-aged men must be in everyone's sight and wait for the fog to dissipate.

At dinner time, the boss asked us to go downstairs to have dinner with the others.

She said she was sorry for everyone today. This happened in her inn, so she treated her to a dinner in the evening and made a large table of food to entertain everyone.

I couldn't be exposed to everyone if I didn't eat, so Chen Qinghan helped me serve a portion upstairs on the grounds of inconvenience in my legs and feet.

The other guests were afraid and unwilling to go back to their respective rooms. Everyone gathered together and gathered together to raise their courage.

But Chen Qinghan said that I had a leg injury and it was inconvenient to move, and he was worried about leaving me alone in the room, so he had dinner so much that he went upstairs to accompany me.

My meal has already been put into the toilet, and Chen Qinghan took the empty bowl and plate downstairs to the boss.

But he started yawning less than five minutes after he returned to the room, looking so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes.

I ran to the balcony and heard it, and the chatting and talking in the lobby downstairs stopped.
