Mo Jinan ran as fast as he could, not caring whether the kid caught up with him or not. He didn't exercise normally and would get out of breath after running a few steps. Just when he subconsciously turned his head to take a look at the situation, his cell phone rang.

"Your phone just f*cking turned off! Now you're f*cking alive again!"

Mo Jinan knew it was Lin Jiayan calling without even looking. He quickly answered the phone, and Lin Jiayan's familiar voice came immediately: "Where have you been?"

"Lin Jiayan, I almost died!!"

Mo Jinan recounted the whole strange experience from beginning to end. Only then did he realize that he had been in the toilet for half an hour. Lin Jiayan called him four times but he didn't answer. No wonder he was so anxious.

“I don't feel there is anything wrong with this hotel…”

Lin Jiayan hesitated for a moment and sighed. He couldn't joke about Mo Jinan's safety. Finally, he said, "Then let's go home?"

"Can we go somewhere else? It's so hard to come out here and go home straight away..."

Mo Jinan really didn't plan to stay here any longer, but he didn't want to go back so easily. Lin Jiayan would definitely not accompany him when he got home. He would be so busy with work that he would not have the time to take care of him.

"I'll take you back to watch a movie and eat hotpot tonight. If you want to go to the amusement park, we can go to another one someday."

Lin Jiayan knew what Mo Jinan was thinking, and quickly spoke to comfort him: "Be good, if there is really a problem with this hotel, we can still leave now! Jinan, now is not the time to consider whether it is a loss to go home!"

"Okay, I'll come find you and we'll just check out and leave."

Mo Jinan was not ignorant. He actually felt that Lin Jiayan might not accompany him after he returned, which would be a bit of a loss. The original promise of accompanying him for five days might not hold true if he returned.

"Well, I've enabled location sharing for you, just come over."

Lin Jiayan comforted him a few more words, then found a location with a barely acceptable signal and waited for Mo Jinan to come over.

At this time, Jun Li had just thrown his luggage onto the big bed in the hotel. He and Zhou Ju booked two rooms, which were conveniently next to each other.

"Honey! Insert the room card into the card slot at the entrance! It's a little dim, let me turn on the light!"

Jun Li opened his bag, took out a bottle of mineral water and drank it all. He didn't expect that there would be so many people checking into the hotel today. Fortunately, he made a reservation in advance so he could get the room card directly.

"Snapped!"

The lights in the room lit up as Bai Ze inserted the card, and then a slow and sad song suddenly rang out from the originally quiet room...

"In the blue sky and the Milky Way, there is a little white boat

There is an osmanthus tree on the boat, and a white rabbit is playing..."

"Fuck!"

Jun Li sat up suddenly, startled by the singing. Bai Ze frowned slightly and then reached out to unplug the tape recorder behind the flower pot.

"There were no oars to be seen, and no sails to be seen on board.

Floating, floating, floating towards the west..."

The song "Little White Boat" had just finished being sung at the moment the wire plug was unplugged. Jun Li sat up in a daze, looking at the wire plug in Bai Ze's hand, and then slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I was so scared by the sudden loud noise..."

Jun Li forced a smile and then looked at the small recorder with a bit of scrutiny, which he had not noticed at all because it was obscured.

“That’s strange…”

Jun Li picked up the recorder and looked at it for a long time before whispering, "I've stayed in so many hotels, but I've never seen a hotel with a recorder."

"What song was that just now?"

Bai Ze gently put down the plug and suddenly spoke. Jun Li waved his hands and didn't care. He just said: "It's called "Little White Boat". It's a very famous children's song. It's used to coax children to sleep."

"Children's song?"

The confusion in Bai Ze's eyes grew even stronger. He pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before asking again: "You humans... sing such strange songs to children to put them to sleep?"

"Hmm? What's weird about that?"

Jun Li didn't realize what Bai Ze meant. In his opinion, this was just a very ordinary children's song. The tender and extremely innocent child's voice made people feel relaxed and happy. The lyrics were also very simple and there was nothing to interpret in depth.

Bai Ze sighed and asked in return: "What kind of boat has no oars and no sails?"

Jun Li was stunned for a moment but heard Bai Ze continue: "The final destination of a boat without oars and sails is destruction, but there is a line in the lyrics..."

"Floating and floating...floating towards the west..."

"Jun Li, I don't think this is a lullaby for children to sleep. I just think it's terrifying when I think about it..."

Bai Ze laughed and leaned forward slightly: "You said... is that really a boat?"

"Ahem...wife..."

Jun Li quickly changed the subject and gently held Bai Ze's hand: "We are here to relax, not to investigate a case."

"Be good, let's have fun in the playground these few days and don't think too much."

Bai Ze lowered his eyes slightly and then obediently stopped talking. He also felt that he seemed to be quibbling with words. At the moment, he really didn't feel the breath of any strange creature here.

"Hmm... maybe it's because every time I come out it's because of some weird incident so now it's a conditioned reflex..."

Bai Ze sighed and whispered: "Sorry, I'm sorry to spoil your fun."

"how come?"

Jun Li hugged Bai Ze's waist with some distress and comforted him softly: "It's not a spoiler, it's my fault. I should take you out more often, otherwise my wife wouldn't think there's something to deal with as soon as she goes out."

Jun Li rubbed Bai Ze's hand and kissed him again before coaxing him: "Be good... Let's relax for a few days and go back after we have enough fun."

Bai Ze said "hmm" softly, and when he saw Jun Li still looking at him gently, he turned his head away unnaturally and coughed: "Why do you always look at me so stickyly..."

"dislike?"

Jun Li deliberately laughed and retracted his gaze from Bai Ze: "If you don't like it... then I'll look at others this way."

"you dare!"

Bai Ze really became anxious all of a sudden. When he saw Jun Li's frivolous smile, he knew that he was teasing him again. He simply turned his head away and snorted coldly, not wanting to look at him again.

"Okay...I was wrong."

Jun Li glanced at the time and stopped teasing him. He stood up and kissed Bai Ze again before gently comforting him: "Go see if Luo Zhi and the others have finished cleaning up. Let's go downstairs and play the project."

Jun Li went straight to knock on Zhou Ju's door opposite, and waited for a while before Luo Zhi opened the door.

"Have you packed your things?"

Jun Li took a look inside. Zhou Ju heard the voice and trotted over: "Jun Li, can you do a rope flip? Look at this!"

Zhou Ju held a red rope from nowhere in his hands, which he supported with both hands in a somewhat ferocious manner. The complicated red rope was intricately entangled, forming a heart in the middle.

Zhou Ju said with a little distress: "Just after I swiped my card and entered the room, I saw someone had made a flower rope on the table. I studied it for a long time before I could barely hook it with my hands, but Luo Zhi can't do it."

"I do not know either."

Jun Li carefully looked at the heart in Zhou Ju's hand. The heart trembled slightly with the hot air Zhou Ju exhaled when he spoke, just like a real beating heart...

"Huh? You have a tape recorder in your room too?"

Jun Li glanced into their room and found a small tape recorder behind a vase in the corner. He subconsciously asked, "How was it? Were you startled by the nursery rhyme that suddenly played when you inserted the card?"

"Mr. Jun, the radio in our room is broken. There is no sound when the card is inserted, and the wires are cut."

After saying this, Luo Zhi went to pull Zhou Ju and told her not to study the catwalk anymore, saying that she came here to play some activities.

Zhou Ju sighed. She thought the rope flipping was interesting, but to be honest, she had never seen a rope that could reveal a heart, so she subconsciously studied it for a long time.

"Let's study it after we come back from playing. We can still play one or two projects now and then go eat."

Jun Li waved at Bai Ze and motioned him to take his arm. They had originally planned to take the elevator but they didn't expect there to be so many people. In the end, they had no choice but to take the emergency passage.

"This hotel is not very well built. There are no lights in the emergency passage?"

Jun Li turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone and barely illuminated the dim stairwell.

"Maybe it's because they just expanded and some facilities are not yet complete."

As soon as Zhou Ju finished speaking, she felt as if she stepped on a square box. She almost fell down. Fortunately, Luo Zhi was quick to grab her wrist and pulled her hard, so Zhou Ju only fell backwards.

"Hiss...Fuck..."

Zhou Ju covered his butt and subconsciously wanted to swear. The small box rolled down the stairs with a clang and then fell into the darkness.
