Chapter 1 Thriller Live Broadcast

Live broadcast mission: Please check into the Taiping Hotel on the outskirts of Xicheng after dark tonight and explore the secret hidden under the bathtub in Room 404...

Mission requirement 1: Do not leave the hotel without permission before the mission is completed.

Mission requirement 2: Survive until dawn.

"It's this fucking horrible mission again!" Han Fei looked helpless as he saw the push message on his phone.

"The Taiping Hotel is a cursed place. The faint of heart should beware..."

“A traveler encountered an unexpected incident while staying at the Taiping Hotel…”

"Another strange suicide case was added to the Taiping Hotel, and the police investigation has yielded no results..."

When he clicked on the relevant search on the web page, he found some ominous and scary words and scary pictures, which caused a certain psychological pressure on Han Fei.

"I risked my life and sneaked into the Taiping Hotel, and finally discovered the secret that had been hidden for many years. The truth turned out to be..."

Seeing this title, Han Fei subconsciously clicked on it. As a result, a sand sculpture legend advertisement of "Imperial City Hegemony" popped up. He felt ashamed. Sure enough, most of the information on the Internet was made up by netizens. He wanted to To understand the real situation, we still need to take action.

Han Fei.

A person who was trapped by loan sharks, in order to make quick money to pay off his debts, he joined a live broadcast company called "Midnight" on the recommendation of a friend a month ago.

The company offered a guaranteed benefit of 10,000 yuan. Han Fei, who was extremely short of money, signed the contract and became a member of the company without even thinking about it.

The company arranged for him to become a supernatural horror anchor.

Before that, he had done two live broadcasts. The first time was when he took the last bus No. 11 in the edge of the city. After getting on the bus, he found that there was only the driver in the car. The driver seemed to be stimulated and stopped driving halfway. He took out a pair of scissors, cut off his hair and eyebrows, and then started to cut off his nose and mouth.

The scene of dripping blood and flying pieces of meat left Han Fei at a loss. He also wondered whether it was a show arranged by the company.

Before he had time to think about it, the driver approached Han Fei step by step with a pair of hand-held scissors, muttering vaguely, “Here, I'll help you...I'll help you cut...cut them all." ....."

Han Fei was so frightened that he broke the window and escaped...

The second live broadcast was even weirder. According to the task requirements, he got under the manhole cover to live broadcast. In the dark sewer, he heard slight voices and footsteps, but he was very sure that he was the only one in the sewer!

Suddenly, a hand appeared out of thin air and grabbed his hair. When he went to grab that hand, it disappeared inexplicably, but the pain from his scalp told him that this was not an illusion.

Even though he was bold by nature, Han Fei was a little frightened when he encountered this kind of thing. He wanted to interrupt the live broadcast and return the same way, but found that the exit manhole cover was blocked. He tried his best to push it up but could not succeed. It felt like It was like a manhole cover being pressed down by a huge boulder.

Just when I was about to call the police, a stream of water came out of nowhere. No, it was blood!

Blood seemed to come out from the top of his head and from the soles of his feet, more and more. Han Fei ran and shouted for help. When the blood was about to submerge his mouth and nose, he saw a bright light in front of him and struggled to climb up. , frightened two beggars who stole manhole covers.

After coming up, he discovered that there was no blood on his body, it was all cold sweat.

He felt something was wrong, so he lay down on the manhole cover and stretched his head to look inside. A face with broken skin suddenly appeared less than half a meter away from him in the well. Black blood seeped out from the broken skin in a steady stream. The pupils that almost protruded from the eye sockets were filled with overwhelming hatred.

In another blink of an eye, the face disappeared.

Han Fei was so frightened that he ran away and dialed 110.

The police found the body of a female who died of excessive blood loss in the sewer. After investigation, it was initially determined that she was raped and killed by the "gang leader" of the beggar gang...

Only then did Han Fei truly realize that there might really be supernatural beings in this world.

He began to doubt the origins and intentions of the live broadcast company, and wanted to ask them for details, but found that the place where the interview was held had disappeared out of thin air.

He went to find the friend who introduced him to the job, but he never expected that the friend died in a car accident a week before introducing him to the job...

Han Fei was scared and regretted, but he had no choice. According to the contract, he had to work for the company for one year. Without the company's permission, he had no choice but to carry out the task.

If the mission is not accepted or the mission fails, points will be deducted. When the points are negative, Han Fei's life will be "confiscated" by the company.

Of course, apart from these scary factors, there is also something gratifying, that is, you can get corresponding points every time you complete a task.

Points can be exchanged for items or money in the mall of the live broadcast platform. One point is equal to 10,000 yuan, which is much better than working part-time. No wonder people often say that "wealth can be found in insurance". This is the truth.

Right now, we can only take one step at a time.

The Taiping Hotel is located on the edge of the city. It is somewhat similar to a hotel in a rural area. The mottled cement walls are covered with the wind and frost of the years. There are also faint red painted words on it, "Family Planning, Everyone Participates." It looks a bit dated. .

The billboard above the door is in pieces, and the two characters behind it are no longer legible. Viewed from the front, only the two characters "Taiping" can be seen clearly.

Han Fei couldn't help but think of the morgue and frowned slightly.

Without entering immediately, Han Fei went to a nearby house to inquire about the Taiping Hotel, and the unanimous reply he received was: Don't go in, it's not clean inside.

As night fell, Han Fei checked the German electric baton on his waist and the Swiss knife hidden in his sleeve, and walked towards the hotel slightly nervously.

The glass door was covered with dust. Han Fei stretched out his hand and pressed it lightly, “Is anyone there?"

"No one is home?" Seeing no response after asking several times, Han Fei stretched out his hand and pulled, and the glass door made a strange creaking sound.

After opening the door, the breeze hit his face, and Han Fei smelled a strange fragrance. It was not the smell of flowers or perfume, but a bit like the smell of red wine burned in the temple.

After taking a closer look, there was an altar table set up at the front desk. In the center of the altar table was a thirty centimeter long golden body.

At first glance, the body of the golden body should be that of a woman. Han Fei thought that the boss got it from somewhere.

"The face of the golden body is not carved? Or does she have no face in the first place?" Soon, Han Fei noticed that there were some problems with the golden body. Firstly, the facial features were not carved on the face. Secondly, there was an unknown stripe on the back of the golden body. Tail.

Han Fei's attention was attracted by the three small cages in front of Jin Shen.

The cage was covered with a white cloth, making it impossible to see what was inside.

Unable to hold back his curiosity, Han Fei opened the white cloth of the left cage.

"Holy crap! It's a snake!!"

Coiled in the cage was a long black snake as thick as a thumb, with a vicious look on the eyes on its flat triangular head. It's a poisonous snake!

Han Fei hurriedly covered the white cloth again, and was about to lift it to see what the other two were?

"What are you doing!" A low shout sounded from behind, startling Han Fei with goosebumps all over his body.

Looking back, an old man with half-bald hair and a stooped body stared at him with an unfriendly expression. This man was the owner of Ping An Hotel, surnamed Yao.

"Uh, hello, I'm here to stay." After Han Fei said this, Boss Yao's cloudy eyes moved, he covered the white cloth with a white cloth, and asked in a strange tone, “Are you sure?"

"What's wrong? Are you not allowed to stay?"

"Let me remind you, someone committed suicide here." Boss Yao reminded him kindly, and Han Fei asked, "Aren't you afraid?"

"What do I have to be afraid of with my old bones? I wish I could die here, it would be like returning to my roots."

"Haha, it's okay. Please open a room next to 404." Han Fei handed over his ID card. The old man looked suspicious and hesitated, but in the end he said nothing more.

Han Fei flipped through the registration book and found that the last guest was a week ago. It seemed that the business of this hotel was indeed not good.

The Taiping Hotel was actually converted from an apartment, with six rooms on each floor. The second and third floors used to be employee dormitories. They were originally inhabited by workers from a nearby electronics factory. Later, after the suicide incident came out, many workers said When the "dirty" things arrived, the trouble got bigger and bigger, and finally they were all moved away, and there have been no new arrivals until now.

After walking through the dark and damp stairs, Han Fei followed Boss Yao to the fourth floor.

When passing by 404, Han Fei glanced at the iron gate and saw four red letters crookedly written on the door: No strangers allowed to enter.

"I don't know who wrote it, and I can't erase it." Boss Yao shrugged, expressing his helplessness.

"May I ask, what is the faceless golden body downstairs for?" Han Fei still couldn't hold it back and asked curiously.

"Oh, an old Taoist priest told me to do it. He said it could drive away evil spirits and ensure peace." He said it casually, and it was hard to tell whether it was true or not.

"Young man, if you hear strange noises at night, don't pay attention to them, or you may get into trouble." Boss Yao said this in a confused way before leaving, which made Han Fei even more nervous.

After locking the door and turning on the light, Han Fei checked the room and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was nothing weird.

I looked at the time, it was nine ten.

Unlocking the phone, there is an APP with the waning moon logo on the screen - Midnight Live.
