Uncle Liu lit a cigarette and continued without avoiding He Kaiyan, "I investigated the dinner party. There were less than fifty people who received invitations, but everyone could bring a companion. If you count the children they brought, there would be more than a hundred people at the entrance."

The dinner itself was divided into two halves. The first half was held in the lobby on the first floor, and the second half was held on the terrace on the rooftop.

As the second half started late, many guests with children left early.

The rest were mostly businessmen from other provinces who were invited to discuss business, hotel managers, and partners.

After Uncle Liu's investigation, it was found that about thirty people participated in the second half, and among these people, except Qiao Shishi, all of them disappeared the next day.

But Qiao Shishi was not blessed by the god of luck. On the contrary, she died miserably in a guest room on the 49th floor.

Since all the missing guests were wealthy or powerful people, and a popular actress was involved, this bizarre case was instantly pushed to the forefront of public opinion.

But even so, until now, there has been no news from them.

According to the hotel staff who came to work the next day, everything in the hotel remained the same and had not been cleaned.

Even more strangely, the door was also locked.

The police did not find any signs of intrusion by outsiders. The hotel’s surveillance cameras were turned off before the banquet started, and it was as if these people had evaporated into thin air.

"Did those people also travel through time?" He Kaiyan asked.

Uncle Liu said solemnly, "No, they were all left in the hotel. Boy, have you ever played games?"

He Kaiyan nodded. He learned skills from Qing Ge and occasionally played the games that Qing Ge often played.

"It's just like the lines on a game map. Although it's the same area, you'll see different people depending on the line you're on." Uncle Liu explained, "This is not something I guessed, but the result of the task force back then."

Those thirty people seemed to have entered a branch of another hotel. People in their original world couldn't see them, and they couldn't get out.

However, the two worlds are not completely parallel.

The task force observed for a long time, and every once in a while they would find something strange.

Some were notes written in lipstick, and there were also some scattered magazine pages, as if the missing person was giving them messages.

In other words, a passage between the two worlds would occasionally open up, giving a chance to rescue the people trapped in the hotel.

Uncle Liu came this time to rescue a little girl who was missing at that time.

However, he did not expect that twenty-five of the thirty people were already dead.

They did not die of hunger, but seemed to commit suicide.

It seems that the hotel they are staying in is different from ordinary hotels, so much so that they would rather end their lives than wait for rescue.

He Kaiyan felt uneasy when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Then... Aren't there still four people left? Do they have a chance to be rescued as well?"

"It's impossible. It's too dangerous. Even I dared to come here only after making sufficient preparations." Uncle Liu sighed, "Get your things and leave."

The little girl in the wheelchair was still sleeping quietly, as if she was unaware of the sufferings in the world.

He Kaiyan followed Uncle Liu and the moment he walked out of the hotel, he heard Uncle Liu whisper to the girl, "Let's go, Sisi. Let's go home."
