"Ah-!"

The late night at the hotel that was supposed to be peaceful was broken by a shrill scream.

"Is anyone there? A person here is dead!"

It was a woman who screamed. If the reincarnators were present, they would've found that she was Lin Ruo from the plot CG. She had just taken a bath and her body was still hot. She was wrapped in a bathrobe but she was collapsed on the corridor of the floor, not saying anything.

"What's going on? It's late and we have to get up early tomorrow for the hike."

Lin Ruo's scream caused several plot characters on the first floor to come out. President Hu was yawning and muttering in a dissatisfied manner in his silk pyjamas. Then the next second, his eyes widened and his drowsiness disappeared. A scream emerged from his throat, "Ah-! Come here! Report to the police!"

The panic of these plot characters caused the reincarnators on the second and third floors to appear one by one.

However, there were some people who were reluctant to come out. It was because no one knew if the evil spirit would continue after killing the first person. Still, most of the reincarnators chose to come out to check the clues.

The first young man to arrive at the scene was closest to the staircase on the second floor. His name was Jiang Linwen. He took a deep breath after seeing the scene in the corridor along with the people who came afterwards.

There was a body thrown into the centre of the corridor. It was Luo Ni and he had a look of shock on his face. It seemed that he was killed by someone he hadn't expected. His entire body was stiff. Blood splattered from where the head hit the ground, darkening the hotel floor. There was only a bloody hole left of Luo Ni's nose, as if there was something hidden inside peeping out at everyone.

"His body was thrown down the stairs." Jiang Linwen spoke first, his eyes sweeping over the group as he kept everyone's expression in mind. "This lady, you were the first to find him?"

Facing his gaze, Lin Ruo gulped and resisted the urge to vomit. "Y-Yes... I couldn't sleep and wanted to go out for some air. I was going out to wait for the sunrise when I passed by and saw this scene."

"So..." Jiang Linwen asked, "Did you hear anything?"

The last part was for everyone. However, most people chose to stay silent. Only a few people answered his question.

"I just heard a slight footstep. It stopped around a quarter of an hour ago. It got to the door of a certain room and there was no more noise."

"I didn't hear anything. I didn't dare to look. I just heard the sound passing by my door."

Jiang Linwen asked, "What type of footsteps? Tall, fat, thin? Any clues?"

The people who answered the question glanced at him and collectively shook their heads. "No."

Even if there was a clue, they wouldn't say it. If an evil spirit was hidden among these people, wouldn't it be walking right into their trap?

There was just one girl. She was thin, small and looked very inconspicuous. She shrunk back while saying, "I heard it. I was like... a person walking on tiptoe."

"I usually practice ballet and that is the sound I make when I walk.'

"Xiao Tu!" The man beside the girl immediately covered her mouth and apologized hastily. "I'm sorry, my sister spoke nonsense. She is young and ignorant."

The corridor at night, an evil spirit walking on tiptoe... The people present had different expressions. Jiang Linwen imagined the scene at that time and his throat felt dry.
