Chapter 992 The Top Obsession [5000 Monthly Votes Requested]

My brother's analysis is quite reasonable.

Because it is unlikely that the Xinghua Hotel itself would have this ability. It is impossible for a hotel that has existed for at most thirty or forty years to go back a hundred years ago.

Just like a person's memory, it can only start from when he was a child. It is impossible to recall even his grandfather's memory.

Even in a weird place like the nightmare world, which is completely inconsistent with common sense, such a thing that violates basic logic cannot happen.

So the problem is unlikely to be the hotel itself, but something else.

What will it be?

Previously, Lin Mo and his brother just checked into the hotel according to the normal routine, staying in the room and not going out again.

So if something happened outside at that time, they didn't know.

"Brother, I don't think it's something that was in the hotel before. Think about it, if it's something that has always been in the hotel, then it's impossible to go back in time so many times without problems."

"You mean, something entered the hotel this time and caused all this to happen?"

"Yes, what do you think?"

"That makes sense."

Lin Yuan nodded.

Lin Mo was very happy when he heard it. After all, he got his brother's approval.

"But this matter has nothing to do with us. Again, if it doesn't threaten our safety, let's not get involved in other matters. It depends on whether this time backtracking can end itself. When everything returns to normal, we can Let’s go out, after all, we are taking mom with us this time.”

"I think so too."

At this time, the two brothers looked at their mother in the bathtub and the young mother they tied up, and decided not to cause trouble.

As for those damn Japanese soldiers, it shouldn't be a big problem if Lao Hu takes action.

My brother is very confident in Lao Hu, so Lin Mo also thinks that Lao Hu will be fine.

Just stay in the house, quietly waiting for the weirdness of this unexpected incident to subside.

This is the plan of two people.

But the problem is that the plan is the plan and the actual situation is the actual situation.

Sometimes you don't cause trouble, but you can't help others to provoke you.

At this time, there was a noise outside the door. At first, the two of them didn't pay attention. It didn't matter whether it was a quarrel or a fight.

But as the noise got louder and louder, someone finally banged on the door.

"Open the door, open the door quickly."

The old man didn't move. Lin Mo knew that he had to do the work of opening the door himself.

After getting up and straightening his clothes, Lin Mo touched the knife hanging on his back, walked over and opened the door.

Standing outside were two men in black coats and black trousers, with fierce looks on their faces, the very standard look of gangsters and ruffians in the old society of the last century.

This kind of person is a gangster in his own territory, but in an area occupied by bad guys, he must be a traitor and lackey.

"What do you do?"

The two men in black coats barged in and looked around.

Lin Mo asked what you do.

"What are you doing? Are you blind?" A short man lifted one side of his coat, revealing the gun holster at his waist.

That kind of old-fashioned leather gun holster, with a gun inserted in it. Although only one gun handle can be seen, you can still feel the murderous aura from the cold texture of the black metal.

Lin Mo estimated that if nothing unexpected happened, the other party was 100% a lackey and traitor.

Lao Xiao ran in at this time and started to act as a peacemaker. After Lao Xiao said this, Lin Mo understood.

People from the outside armed forces had sneaked into the city and killed a Japanese soldier commander. Now they were searching the whole city. It was already chaos.

Hotels and inns like this are the focus of searches.

Of course, everyone knows that serious members of the armed forces cannot hide in such a place, but this does not hinder the search. For the following two devils, the search means that it is time to make money.

Every time a search is carried out, regardless of whether the target person can be found, at least everyone can make a profit.

Therefore, the people below are looking forward to conducting more searches like this. By then, they will become rich and live a prosperous life, which is just around the corner.

The two detective team members squinted their eyes and stared at the people in the room.

"Is there someone on the bed?"

One person said something.

There was indeed someone on the bed.

The bathtub and the younger version of my mother are on top.

One is a weird fish, and the other is a tied up young woman. It would be difficult to deal with either of them if they are exposed.

So just now my brother had hidden them all under the sheets.

If you lift it up, the stuffing will be exposed directly.

Lin Mo didn't like these two Japs, so he didn't bother to explain.

To put it simply, they really don't want to cause trouble, but if they are bullied, they will definitely not tolerate it.

So at this moment, Lin Mo was already thinking about how to kill these two devils and how to dispose of the bodies.

Either hide it, let the ghost eat it, or throw it directly into the mirror world.

That place was the perfect place to dump the body.

Little did they know that the two Japs who had made Lin Mo murderous were still arrogant and insisted on going over to lift the sheets to take a look.

At this time, a Japanese soldier saw the waist knife hidden behind Lin Mo's back and immediately asked what it was.

Lin Mo just said it was a knife.

The two devils were stunned and wanted to draw their guns, but for Lin Mo, with only three or two steps away, drawing a gun was not as fast as drawing a sword.

Besides, Lin Mo had already practiced drawing the sword.

With a flash of the sword, the heads of these two devils rolled to the ground.

Another Japanese soldier wanted to scream, but the old man over there had already pounced on him and gave him a 180-degree cervical spine treatment.

"Brother, your technique is on par with Lao Bai's."

"I've practiced this too."

Then the two brothers looked at Lao Xiao.

Lao Xiao was already frightened. The main reason was that the Lin brothers started their attack too quickly without any warning. It only took two or three seconds from the beginning to the present.

I wanted to run, but my legs felt like they were filled with lead and I couldn't move at all.

Lin Mo wiped the knife at this time and asked Guiying to handle the body. He was holding the knife in one hand and talking to Lao Xiao with the other.

"Old Xiao, I think you are quite honest and a good person. We were made things difficult by these two guys just now, and it was you who took the initiative to rescue us. Just for this reason, don't worry, we definitely can't kill you."

The words were well spoken, and the tone was gentle, but hearing them still gave people great fear and fright.

Lao Xiao's lips trembled and he wanted to speak, but couldn't.

"Originally, we planned to stay quietly in the house, but now, you see, this matter is really not what we expected. We have no choice. Everything can't go as we wish. This is life."

With that said, Lin Mo pulled Lao Xiao to the window.

"There's something I want to know about. Where is this place?" Lin Mo asked.

At this time, Lao Xiao finally found his tongue and stammered, "This is N city."

Lin Mo nodded.

He already knew it from the newspaper just now, he just wanted to confirm it again.

In fact, he has been observing Lao Xiao.

Lao Xiao is obviously a dead man.

But the other party didn't seem to remember this.

Everyone I met here was dead, including the mother and son who were killed before, the Japanese soldiers, and the two Japanese who came up to search just now.

This is a world of the dead.

So Linmott was curious, did Lao Xiao and the others know that they were dead?

In fact, the verification method is also simple, just ask directly.

"I go out for a while."

The old man said something at this time.

Lin Mo nodded.

"Go early and come back early."

Brother went out to deal with the other Japanese devils in this hotel.

After all, if these two are killed, the others cannot be spared. Otherwise, the problem will be discovered sooner or later. In this case, it is better to take the initiative.

Although there was no discussion, both Lin Mo and Lin Yuan knew what to do next and what the other was thinking.

It's all tacit.

"Old Xiao, do you still remember how you died?"

Lin Mo suddenly asked.

Lao Xiao was startled.

Lin Mo was observing carefully, because some ghosts did not know that they were dead. If this was revealed at this time, they would immediately recall the past, then show their dead appearance, showing terrifying resentment and malice. Nine times out of ten, they would Will immediately attack those around him.

But Lao Xiao's performance was obviously different.

He was still a little overwhelmed and his eyes were filled with confusion.

"How did you die? I've never died before."

"You really don't remember?"

"I don't know what you are talking about. Good man, please let me go. Don't worry, I will never tell anyone about the killings between you and that good man. The people in the detective team should Kill, I have hated them for a long time, but I just can’t afford to offend them.”

Lin Mo looked carefully at Lao Xiao, who looked sincere, and then let go of him.

"That's interesting."

Lin Mo found that this place was very special. Although the test just now did not make Lao Xiao reveal his ghostly appearance and restore his memory, it further showed that this place was weird.

Obviously, memory recall is more likely here.

Whose memory is it?

Lin Mo suddenly realized something at this time.

Their appearance here may not be accidental, so their original idea of ​​minding their own business and staying in the house was inherently problematic.

In fact, this is also true. This is not the case. Trouble comes to you.

Just as he was thinking about it, a gunshot was heard suddenly.

This broke Lin Mo's train of thought.

It also made him frown.

"Xiaoyu, help me look after my mother."

Lin Mo confessed, Xiao Yu had already appeared beside the bed, and Lin Mo himself had already rushed out of the door.

There is gunfire here, and it is most likely coming from my brother's side.

There is no gun in my brother's hand, only those from the detective team. Although Lin Mo knows that my brother is very capable, the guns in the nightmare world may not be able to hurt him.

But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

That was his own brother. Even if he had even scratched his skin, Lin Mo would not let the shooter go.

He was very fast and found his brother upstairs.

There were several corpses lying on the ground.

They are all detective teams wearing black coats.

They all died in the same way, their necks were all broken.

Obviously my hobbies are similar to Lao Bai's, and they can form a couple.

The old man stood over there, staring at a room.

He had a gunshot wound to his arm.

Lin Mo ran over to take a look, but luckily it was just a scratch.

"Brother, be careful, the guns here can kill people."

Lin Yuan said with a serious expression.

There must be something wrong with this at first glance. Guns are just for killing people.

But in fact, in the nightmare world, the deterrence and lethality of weapons like guns are far worse than in the real world.

Because most nightmares are not afraid of gunfire.

Unless it's the murderous kind.

And he is a low-end murderer, but a higher-end one, with madness and some curses, can still come over and break your neck even if his body is beaten into a sieve.

Most of the time, guns in the nightmare world are only used to intimidate ordinary people.

Brother naturally knows this, so his reminder at this time is obviously saying that the guns here are different.

There are not many guests here, and a few of them are looking at the Lin brothers in the corridor in horror.

"Everyone go back to your rooms."

Lin Mo waved his hand.

As if they had received an amnesty, these people hurried back and closed the door.

This time, it was quiet.

At the same time, the old man turned his head and looked at the window over there. A black figure climbed up, broke through the window and got in.

It's Lao Hu.

My brother asked Lao Hu to deal with those Japanese soldiers before, but they should be solved now.

But Lao Hu looked a bit miserable.

He was shot several times and was bleeding.

You have to know that for a nightmare of Lao Hu's level, it is logically impossible for a firearm to harm it.

But now it was not only injured, but seriously injured.

Obviously this fits what I said before.

"First put away all the guns on the ground."

Lin Mo knew that, perhaps because of the special rules here, the power of firearms here was huge. Now that he knew it, he had to be wary and careful.

And if it's powerful, you can put it away and use it yourself.

The people in these detective teams all used pistols, seven, plus the previous two, a total of nine pistols. The bullets were not counted, so they couldn't care about it at the moment.

Because my brother said there is something wrong with this room on the third floor.

Needless to say, brother, Lin Mo also noticed the problem.

Although the door was closed, an extremely powerful obsession still seeped out from the crack in the door.

Obsession Lin Mo has come into contact with many.

From the old Chinese medicine doctor and the takeaway boy at the beginning, to the obsessional nightmare later on, I have encountered at least a dozen types. Of course, the degree of obsession is different, but obsessions all have one thing in common.

That is stronger than other nightmares.

And much stronger.

"There is an obsession here." Lin Mo said.

The old man nodded.

"Go in and take a look?"

"OK."

Lin Mo walked over and knocked directly on the door.

There are also special ways to deal with obsessions. The first step is to find out what causes the other person's obsession.

Some are to treat illnesses; some are to make money by delivering takeaways; some are to wait for someone to come home. In short, they are all obsessions caused by something.

The degree of desire for this matter determines the strength of the obsession.

Therefore, the best way to deal with obsessions is to satisfy them.

For example, if you want to be cured, let it be cured; if you are delivering food, you can cooperate with others in picking up and delivering food; if you are waiting for someone, help find that person.

Lin Mo is definitely experienced in doing this.

Knocking on the door made no sound.

Either the people inside didn't want to open, or they didn't hear it.

Lin Mo thinks the first possibility is relatively high.

After thinking for a while, he knocked again, and then said: "I am a relative of Lao Xiao. The person who came to search just now has left."

The purpose of pretending to be Lao Xiao's relative was to gain trust. It was also a guess to say that the person who had just searched was gone. The other party did not open the door because he was afraid of being discovered by the detective team.

Just guessing.

If you guess wrong, try another trick.

As a result, at this time, the door clicked and opened.

A pale man revealed half of his face from the crack in the open door, looking at Lin Mo warily.

Lin Mo was also looking at each other.

He is a young man, in his twenties at most, with a pale complexion. It is not the whiteness of a person, but the whiteness of someone who is sick or has lost a lot of blood.

Although he looked weak, his eyes were firm.

Anyway, Lin Mo has never seen this kind of obsession.

In the past encounters, because obsession has taken over, a certain kind of madness and violence can be seen in the eyes.

But not the young man in front of me.

The most important thing is that you can't feel any malice from the other party.

It may be that everyone in the detective team has left.

In fact, the old man took all the corpses away, so the young man was obviously relieved.

"Are you hurt?"

Lin Mo was at a loss for words. He felt that this obsession might be the key.

Among the many obsessions that Lin Mo has seen, whether it is an old Chinese medicine doctor, a delivery boy, or the various obsessions that he encountered later, none of them can compare to the one in front of him.

If obsession could be digitized, the old Chinese medicine doctor and the takeaway boy would have a few thousand at most, while the person in front of me would have at least a hundred thousand.

Not an order of magnitude at all.

So even though Lin Mo looked very calm, he was actually quite nervous at the moment.

This is definitely top notch obsession.

If this obsession is going to cause something, Lin Mo feels that nothing can stop it.

"I'm fine. By the way, is there anyone selling cigarettes outside?"

The young man inside the door asked.

It can be seen that the other party is extremely cautious.

While he was talking, the door was always ajar, and only half of his face was exposed.

Although I can't feel any malice, I can feel danger.

It's the feeling of a gun pointing at your head and a knife resting on your neck, like a thorn in your back.

Maybe, the other party is holding a loaded pistol in his hand, pointing it at his head through the door panel. If there is any problem, he will make a hole in his forehead.

There is danger, but no malice.

It means that the other party is just protecting themselves, it is a defensive measure, and it is not directed at a specific person, because the other party does not trust anyone.

Lin Mo is recognized for his good acting skills.

Even in the face of danger, he can keep his face calm and his heart not beating. Anyway, others can't see his true thoughts.

"I don't know if the cigarette seller is here. I was upstairs just now, so I can help you take a look."

"That's great. If so, please tell the other party that 302 wants to buy Laodao brand cigarettes and ask him to deliver them."

"Sure, I'll go take a look right now."

After Lin Mo finished speaking, he turned and left.

He didn't look back.

The young man in room 302 watched Lin Mo walking down the stairs before closing the door.

At the bottom of the stairs, the elder brother looked worried. Seeing Lin Mo coming down safe and sound, he hurriedly went up to greet him.

Lin Mo said not to talk for now, and then go down to the first floor.

When we got to the first floor, I said that it was so dangerous just now. I didn't expect that the obsession inside the door was so strong. It was definitely a top-notch obsession.

"I suggest you don't mess with this kind of top-level obsession. If you do get involved, it's hard to predict whether it will be a blessing or a disaster." The elder brother looked worried.

As a result, Lin Mo shook his head and said it was too late now.

"Although this obsession is extremely strong, there is no malice in him. I estimate that this guy is the one who brought us back to this memory of a hundred years ago. Only this top-level obsession has this ability. .”

"What's your plan?"

"First get in touch, then get to know him, and see if he can achieve his obsessive wish. I feel that if I don't help him, there will be big trouble."
