Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 53 I have a promise with the gods
"ended."

Tang Qianqian looked at the quiet Congyun Hotel again. The sudden earthquake paused for a while. When the violent shaking stopped completely and the hotel fell into silence again, the ghost stories that had revived in the middle of the night were no longer heard. "It seems that the senior has won."

She finally let go of her worries.

There is a gap between the invincible ones. The senior kept his promise and at least this time he maintained the position of "the strongest".

"Don't struggle. The toxin injected into your body is from the rattlesnake demon. With such a large dose, you will be paralyzed for at least the next ten minutes."

After being beaten up by the red-eyed demon last time, she reflected on it.

The predecessors said that the evil spirit will only reveal its true form at the moment of launching an attack. If you want to cause damage to it, you must seize that brief moment.

But not everyone in this world is as powerful as the predecessor. Moreover, according to the records in the manuscript, the physical functions of most evil spirits are far stronger than those of humans. When the gap between the enemy and us is so huge, taking an approach with extremely low tolerance for error is no different from seeking death in her opinion.

So, in the field of exorcising evil spirits, are there any easier means?
After several hours of research, Tang Qianqian came to an important conclusion - attack the main body.

Evil spirits have powerful physical functions and often possess strange abilities, but their original bodies are just like them and can be injured and die. The manuscript also mentions that evil spirits appear in the form of dreams, and once their original bodies wake up, they will disappear.

Not long ago, she had confirmed through various means that the waitress was a human being, a living, flesh-and-blood human being like them.

So she was pretty sure Rattler's fangs were effective.

"Although you can't move your hands and feet, you should still be able to speak. You have ten minutes to defend yourself. For example, make us believe that you were coerced by the lady and that you are essentially a good girl with a pure nature..."

"Qian Yun, this is my name."

Unexpectedly, the waitress who fell to the ground did not use the tactic of pretending to be pitiful anymore. Although she was clearly in a desperate situation, she kept smiling.

This was the first time Tang Qianqian saw Qian Yun smile.

Crazy and devoid of beauty, it reminded her of the extremists she had seen on TV news.

As if to establish its prestige, Universal Company would occasionally film the security department arresting criminals. The one that impressed her the most was a middle-aged man who was forced into a desperate situation, standing on the roof of the company building, facing the hovercraft that surrounded him.

At the end of his life, the man opened his arms and a smile appeared on his face.

That was also the first time that Tang Qianqian saw the effect of a bomb explosion other than in movies and TV dramas. The flames engulfed the middle-aged man in the blink of an eye, the alarm sounded through the sky, and the live broadcast was cut off within a few seconds.

"I wrote down all the strange stories about the Congyun Hotel."

It is a very laborious process to sort out the information, make some supernatural modifications, and then publish them on the Internet to guide people to discuss and make Congyun Hotel a holy place for supernatural enthusiasts. "How should I put it? This is my interest."

There was no fear in Qian Yun's eyes. She lay on the red carpet spread on the stairs. Everything here was exactly the same as what she saw in her childhood.

From the moment she was born, Congyun Hotel has been in this half-dead state.

The business was not doing well and the customers were few and far between, but at least I could make a living.

The story I heard most from my elders was about the glorious days of Congyun Hotel. Every day when lying in bed, my mother would talk about the founder of Congyun Hotel and said that their ancestors had connections with the gods who came from heaven.

"They all believe that the gods are good people. They say that there are too many things to deal with in heaven. After they have dealt with the things in heaven, they will come back here. At that time, the hotel will be revitalized."

Qian Yun once thought so. So she was well prepared since she was young, learning to manage everything in the hotel, so that when the immortal came, the Congyun Hotel would be able to return to its heyday in her hands.

"When I was seven years old, my parents left for a long trip to discuss an important business. I haven't seen them since then."

She paused, then continued, "Later, the gods did come and brought news about my parents. They said they had a car accident while traveling far away, and it was too late when they were sent to the hospital. In addition, there were some IOUs. Um... I think they were called the legal department. They told me that the hotel owed the company a huge debt due to years of poor management. According to the law, the company has the right to mortgage the hotel."

From that moment on, Qian Yun understood that the gods were not and had never intended to help them.

"After all the gods left, one of them stayed and told me something I never knew... My mother never told me that there was a fifth floor in the hotel, nor did she tell us that our ancestors imprisoned their wives there. The god who stayed behind made a promise with me. He said that if I could find a way to get to the fifth floor and learn the knowledge hidden there, he would find a way to help me deal with the company's debt problem."

Hearing this, Tang Qianqian suddenly understood.

Tian Waimin's sudden death in Congyun Hotel was actually a carefully planned murder.

A murder initiated from within the company in order to seize a higher position.

She continued, "The price is that you wake up the lady and kill the boss when he inspects. In return, he will help solve the debt problem."

Without the "godly" filter, this is the real internal struggle of Universal Company.

"If what you said is true, we can consider it as appropriate."

The complicated relationship between these characters made Tang Qianqian feel conflicted. They were not police officers, and even when facing criminals, they had no authority to deal with them.

Qian Yun was just crawling on the ground and seemed to have lost the ability to resist. If she continued to fight, it would not be in compliance with the Self-Defense Act.

But if Qian Yun was telling the truth, she would be doomed if she was handed over to the police.

This matter involves an internal struggle within Universal Company. In order to silence the insider forever, the company executive who has now replaced his boss will make sure Qian Yun cannot make any statement that is unfavorable to him.

Tang Qianqian couldn't help feeling a little sad, "Actually, I sympathize with you."

"unnecessary."

The smile on Qian Yun's face became more and more creepy. Although it was Qian Yun who had lost the ability to move and was lying on the ground, Tang Qianqian suddenly felt a little creepy.

This smile is so familiar.

The man who detonated a bomb on the roof of the company building on the TV news left her with a serious psychological trauma and caused her to have nightmares for more than a month.

"I'm not saying this to make you sympathize with me. I just want to tell you that gods can also be killed."

"Ok?"

"Their body structure is not much different from ours. If they are killed, they will die."

Qian Yun's pupils flashed scarlet light. For a moment, Tang Qianqian felt as if something overlapped with her. "Madam said that they will come back sooner or later, just like they did to our ancestors... So I must practice my skills well. For the sake of future generations, I must kill them."

At this point, she paused and corrected, "No, kill them all!"
