Schiller looked at the house number of Room 1913 that he had placed on the table next to him. He still had the house number in his hand, so how could it appear opposite Room 1900?
Schiller walked out again and looked at the layout of the corridor. There were 6 rooms on one side, and logically there were three on each wall. The even numbers were next to the elevator, and the odd numbers were opposite the elevator. They were arranged like this on the left and right sides.
In the corridor on the left, facing the original room 1913 is room 1910, but because room 1913 has been replaced by room 1900, the opposite of room 1910 is now room 1900.
So why did the opposite side of Room 1900 become Room 1913 in Peter's timeline?
Schiller looked down at the house number in his hand and realized that he might have changed the house number.
But why would I do this?
He had always had a hunch before that room 1913 was very dangerous. When the door plate was removed, the sound of banging inside also proved this. Schiller felt that there was no need to release this room now, as it was already peaceful.
The corridors add an extra layer of danger.
Since there were basically no clues on his side, Schiller decided to remotely control Peter to investigate on his side, so he asked Peter to open the video communication. Schiller used his vision to observe the corridor on that side, and at the same time asked Peter to follow what he said.
Do.
Schiller asked Peter to go back to the room first, but when passing by the elevator, the elevator just reached the 19th floor and dinged. Schiller's heart skipped a beat reflexively, but it turned out that he didn't know who pressed the elevator button before.
, that’s why we stopped the elevator. Nothing came out of the elevator.
But it was this sound that made Schiller suddenly realize something. He suddenly realized that he had overlooked an important clue.
Schiller first asked Peter to go to the room to pick up the alarm clock. Of course, the alarm clock was not his, but the one he took out from Room 1913. Peter was more proficient in mechanics than Schiller, and he brought a miniature toolbox.
He said he was confident that he could take the alarm clock apart and restore it.
But Schiller only asked him to open the battery compartment. There was still no battery inside, but Peter did not find any hair inside.
In other words, the two hairs Schiller found in Room 1905 were special, which may also be related to the specialness of Room 1905.
The investigation soon came to a standstill. Everything seemed normal on Peter's side. He was not the kind of person who could disrupt the situation with a sudden burst of inspiration and make amazing moves. He was not even a brilliant detective, even if Schiller could
With the help of his perspective, it is Peter himself who controls Peter's body after all, and he seems to have no understanding of everything happening now.
During this period, Peter knocked on Jerome's door, which was the door of Room 1904, but there was no response from the door. Peter looked through the peephole and saw nothing.
Schiller had no choice but to let him go around the various public facilities in the hotel. He seriously doubted that he would not be able to leave the hotel smoothly after leaving the 19th floor. He would have to find an exit to leave the hotel. It would be a good idea to become more familiar with the terrain now.
Peter went to the restaurant, swimming pool, gym, bar and luggage storage. During the process, he passed two conference rooms and a business center, but reservations were required, so Peter could not enter.
The Wayne Hotel was quite luxurious, and it opened Peter's horizons. He usually couldn't afford to stay in a hotel of this quality, so he took a tour of the hotel and Schiller felt that his sanity had been restored a lot.
When he saw the swimming pool, Peter suggested that he want to swim, but Schiller immediately gave up his idea. In the Cthulhu mythology system, plunging into the water is seeking death.
Peter also did one more thing, which was to buy some water and food from the vending machine in the lobby. Schiller could not completely guarantee that the water and food were not contaminated, but it was better than tap water anyway.
In a protracted war, you still need to prepare survival supplies first.
After comparison between the two, Schiller discovered that the time of day in the two hotels was not exactly the same. The time in the hotel where Peter was staying was about 30 seconds later than the time in the hotel where Schiller was.
In other words, Schiller's current time is 2:00:00, and Peter's time is almost 1:59:30. Because this difference is too small, the performance on the minute hand is the same in many cases, so the two people's previous understanding of time
I never discovered it.
Schiller didn't know where this gap came from or what its purpose was, but he kept this change in mind. He realized that it must be related to the way the two hotels existed, and it might also have something to do with the alarm clock and the like.
Something related to the element of time.
The day passed quickly, and Schiller's plan to completely solve the problem during the day was in vain, because the hotel was extremely quiet during the day, even at this unstable time where Schiller was, during the day
No exception occurred.
It seems that the key breakthrough lies in the monsters roaming around in the middle of the night and the sound of those few bells.
But this also means that Schiller has to stay in this room for one more night, because starting from dark, the illusion in the room will appear.
Leaving the room to go to the corridor as soon as it gets dark and waiting until midnight and then coming back is not an option. What if the room goes back on its word and refuses to allow the door card to be opened? Of course, their moral bottom line cannot be overestimated.
Of course, Schiller can sit back on the sofa, but he has no intention of doing so. He has already wasted a whole day. He must seize the opportunity to investigate when the supernatural phenomenon occurs. If nothing unexpected happens, what will happen tonight?
It will be more dangerous.
Before dark, Schiller ate something and took a nap to make sure he was in the best condition. He didn't think there could be any illusions in this room to scare him. The room should feel the same way, so it was more likely tonight.
It's physical work.
Sure enough, as the last light of dusk fell, Schiller heard the sound of rushing water coming from the bathroom. It didn't sound like the sound made by modern furniture, but more like the entire bathroom was soaked in the ocean waves.
sound.
Water flowed out from the crack in the bathroom door.
It stands to reason that water cannot flow so fast through such a thin door crack, but within a few dozen seconds a thin layer of water accumulated on the bedroom floor. Schiller did not close the bedroom door, so the water was very
It quickly flowed into the living room.
Schiller sniffed, but did not smell the fishy smell of the sea. This meant that the water pouring out of the bathroom was not seawater, but it was difficult to say whether the water was contaminated.
When the water starts to overflow, most people will definitely want to go into the bathroom and turn off the faucet, but Schiller knows that water is not the point. As long as the room is considered, it can even make the lamp start running water. It is meaningless to speculate based on common sense.
Judging from the speed of the water flow, this room may be trying to drown him, because Schiller just thought there for a few seconds, and the water was already up to his knees.
The first thing Schiller did was to rush into the bedroom and pick up his briefcase. The items in it were not afraid of water, but it would be bad if they were washed away by the current.
When the water rose to the window sill, Schiller knew that he had guessed correctly. Because the window was open so wide and there was a sofa propped up there, not a drop of water flowed out. It was as if the window was sealed.
membrane.
In just a few dozen seconds, the water reached Schiller's neck. Schiller chose to stand on the sofa in that part of the room, but this could only delay the time he was submerged.
The speed of the water is getting faster and faster, and now it has flooded four-fifths of the room. Schiller can barely breathe now, but he did not choose to swim and just stood by the window.
He doesn't think this room can kill him.
This is just another kind of intimidation, forcing people to find a way out, because drowning is actually a very painful feeling. Oxygen is missing, water is poured into the lungs, and the person struggles to death due to suffocation. This kind of despair is not something ordinary people can endure.
.
As long as there is an exit at this time, whether it is a door or a window, people who are pushed to the limit will definitely choose to rush out, just to regain their breath.
But Schiller was not a normal person.
When the water flooded the entire room, Schiller felt suffocated. He was sure that this was real water and not an illusion, but he kept holding his breath and stood still, as if he was in conflict with the room.
Suoheip's body is that of an ordinary person. He needs to breathe. Without taking oxygen in advance, he can hold his breath for a very short time and soon reaches the end.
Schiller opened his mouth and nose and let the water pour in, entering his nasal cavity and lungs. Severe pain came from the respiratory tract, his stomach was churning constantly, his chest hurt as if it had been hollowed out, and he began to lose consciousness.
Blurred.
But Schiller still didn't make any move, even if he only needed to stick his head out of the window, or even just tilt his head to the side, he could completely escape from this painful predicament.
But he did nothing.
He even stretched out his body and let himself drown in this sea of illusion. The room seemed to deliberately prolong the painful process, or simply kept Schiller in this state for half an hour.
The water receded.
It seems that the time this room can cause mischief is limited, which is probably from dark to about midnight, so it makes no sense to continue the stalemate with Schiller here.
The room selection goes another way, this time with flames.
If there is any way to die more painful than drowning, it must be being burned to death. To be more precise, in fact, the vast majority of people who die in fires die from smoke. They are choked to death by the fog. This way of death
Although it was quite painful, it still pales in comparison to being burned alive.
There was no fog in the room, but the fire was getting bigger and bigger.
Schiller simply walked off the sofa, because he had verified his guess that this room could not kill him, and it made water and fire, just because he thought he would not be able to bear it and committed suicide.
Human beings have a strong will to survive. At a critical moment, as long as there is a way to survive, they will try their best to climb up. Those by the window will use the window, and those by the door will use the door. But unfortunately, in this strange place,
Neither the door nor the window is the one opened by God, it will only lead to a more desperate dead end.
But this time Schiller is not going to let the room succeed. Although he is not afraid of pain and death, it is not his style to surrender and let others slaughter him. On the contrary, Schiller is most willing to see the other party angry but not be able to hit him.
things to do.
Schiller rushed into the bathroom and stood on the toilet seat.
