Xiao Xiaohong finally stopped making the "V" gesture, and her breathing began to become heavier due to fear.
She also ran into the hotel lobby opposite, ran through the corridor, saw the head of the eternal demon, and finally ran to Wu Yue's side.
Everyone stared in astonishment at Xiao Honghong who appeared from behind.
"real or fake……"
Hayakawa Aki didn't believe it, so she also ran into the hall opposite, but as expected, she finally ran out from the corridor behind Wu Yue.
But she also lifted up the head of the eternal demon in the corridor and grabbed one of the short legs under its head.
The eternal demon had a dull look in his eyes, and he kept shouting, "I'm so hungry."
Wu Yue suddenly understood.
"Oh, so that's how it is. No wonder the Eternal Demon seemed to have no mind on the seventh floor. She kept shouting 'I'm so hungry, so hungry' and rushed forward desperately. It turns out that she was already controlled by Ji He at that time. The original plan was disrupted, so Ji He appeared to remedy the situation."
"Everyone, we are now imprisoned by the Eternal Demon and trapped in the lobby of this hotel building."
"Eh...? What...what does that mean?"
Xiao Xiaohong's face was full of fear, her body was shaking and her voice was intermittent.
"We are trapped...trapped by the eternal demon? Do you mean...meaning that we are trapped in this place forever?"
"No, Xiao Xiaohong! Don't say such discouraging words!"
Arai Hiroshi accused Xiao Xiaohong with a serious face, but she was more blaming herself and forcing herself not to believe it.
Xiao Xiaohong cried because she was afraid of death. She cried, and tears kept rolling down from the corners of her eyes like beads that had broken off the string. Her snot also flowed uncontrollably, with drops hanging on the tip of her nose, making her look extremely miserable.
She wiped her face with her hands randomly, her chest heaving violently, and her breathing became gradually difficult, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
That painful look.
Wu Yue looked at it.
Reacted.
"But...but didn't he say it? We...we are trapped by the Eternal Demon. The Eternal Demon, its name...its name means eternity..."
Arai Hiroichi's face gradually distorted and he couldn't say anything for a while.
Chapter 24: Heartless
Lobby, corridor, double room in hotel building.
Hayakawa Aki began to review all the methods she had used so far. Whether it was windows, ventilation ducts, or stairs, none of them could lead to the outside of the real building. In the end, they would only bring them back to the starting point, which was the lobby of the hotel.
And time was paused, forever frozen at 8:24 p.m. in the dormitory hall.
[Ding~ Ji Ye's irritable mood is detected, the system rewards 5 points. 】
Ji Ye sat aside, smoking a cigarette. She originally still held out a glimmer of hope for the elevator shaft, thinking that she could use it to climb up again. However, let alone climbing, the elevator shaft had flown to who knows where, and that place had turned into a wall.
Wu Yue also brought the head of the eternal demon over, but because the head kept shouting that it was so hungry and was too noisy, he simply cut off its jaw, and it finally quieted down.
Without listening to Hayakawa Aki's review, Wu Yue kept staring at the head of the eternal demon. The more he looked, the more he felt something was wrong. Although it looked very ugly and abstract, it vaguely felt like a woman's face.
"Hey, I mean, the Eternal Devil can't be a female, right?"
Denci lay lazily on the big bed, covered with a quilt, his eyes half open and half closed, and was about to fall asleep.
She heard Wu Yue's words, glanced lazily at the head of the Eternal Demon, and answered as a matter of course. "Of course, there are only women in this world, whether they are human or demon."
"Ah?! Is this true?!"
Wu Yue was surprised. Are all demons female? Wu Yue suddenly recalled the bald head of the zombie demon and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
Does she look like that also mean she is a female devil?
And according to what Denji said, the concept of female in this world is really broad enough that even the demons have all become female.
Wu Yue suddenly remembered that the Dark Demon, the Hell Demon, the Gun Demon, etc., weren't they all female?
"Eh? Wu Yue, don't you know?" Dianci was surprised, but soon she returned to her lazy look and yawned.
"Oh... yeah, if it's Wu Yue, it's normal not to know. After all, Wu Yue, you're not normal either, hehe~"
"Hey, you two, don't interrupt if you don't want to listen."
Hayakawa Aki noticed the little movements of Wu Yue and Denci.
[Ding~ The jealousy of Hayakawa Aki is detected, and the system rewards 5 points. 】
"It's useless... We're all going to die here... Everything is over from the moment we step into this building."
Dongshan Xiaohong was sitting on the bed. Her already trembling body began to tremble even more violently out of fear.
She lowered her head, clasped her hands weakly in front of her, her nails digging deep into her palms without her noticing, and had begun to give up on herself.

…………
Since being trapped here, Wu Yue's mind would ring with the emotional points of Dongshan Xiaohong's fear and terror every once in a while, and the points were quite high. This was one of the reasons why Wu Yue had not yet come up with a solution.
He wants to earn some points here.
On the other hand, Wu Yue likes Dongshan Xiaohong's weak appearance.
If he gets the chance later, he will definitely severely ravage Dongshan Xiaohong.
Arai Hiroichi tried to comfort Xiao Xiaohong, but it was completely useless.
[Ding~ Dongshan Xiaohong's emotional collapse is detected, the system rewards 10 points. ]
"We will be... trapped to death here. Didn't Senior Hayakawa Aki say that? The time here has been suspended... This means that people outside looking at the building... looking at the building will not be able to see anything unusual... One second outside may be a year in the dormitory hall? A hundred years? Who knows, ten thousand years! Wuwuwuwu..."
As Xiao Xiaohong spoke, her fear became like a flood that broke through a dam and she could no longer control it. Her tears flowed like beads that had broken off the string.
She kept wiping the tears from her face with her hands, and the movement looked so clumsy yet cute.
[Ding~ Pava's happy mood is detected, the system rewards 10 points. 】
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Look at it! Look at the look of this idiot!!! It's really making me die of laughter, hahahahaha!"
Pava had no humanity at all. She pointed at Xiao Xiaohong with one hand and covered her stomach with the other, laughing so heartbreakingly that she even rolled on the bed laughing.
Ji Ye smoked the rest of the cigarette, put it out and threw it into the trash can.
"Qiu, is the piece of the Gun Devil's flesh still in that head?"
Hayakawa Aki shook his head.
"It's no longer here."
Ji Ye sighed, suddenly thought of something, and looked at Pava who was rolling on the ground laughing.
"Speaking of which, Pava, why did you react so strongly after seeing the woman in the black hat? Do you know her? Who is she?"
"Eh?"
Pava stopped smiling instantly and began to stammer.
"She...she...I...I...I don't know...I don't know...I don't know!"
Seeing Pava's attitude, Hayakawa Aki was about to get angry, but Wu Yue explained on Pava's behalf.
"Her name is Ji He, and her true identity is the Hungry Demon, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Her ability is to transform hungry people or other demons into chess pieces in her hands."
Wu Yue's tone was calm when he said this, but the meaning of this sentence was like a blockbuster bomb exploding in the room.
In an instant, the entire space fell into deathly silence. Even Xiao Xiaohong, who had been crying, stopped sobbing and looked at Wu Yue in astonishment.
"Apocalypse...? The Four Horsemen?! What...?! How is this possible?!"
Hayakawa Aki couldn't believe it. She was the first one among the crowd to react.
"Hungry...?! One of the Four Horsemen, the Hungry Demon?! Why is he here?!"
Ji Ye also gradually came back to her senses, but her focus was different from that of Hayakawa Aki.
"Oh... so that's how it is. No wonder the Eternal Demon keeps shouting about being hungry. So, all of this is secretly manipulated by the Hungry Demon? It turns out that she is the biggest boss, but... what is her purpose? She went to such great lengths just to trap a few insignificant public security officers like us to death?"
Wu Yue did not respond to Ji Ye's words because he felt that the hungry demon's target was most likely him.
It is better not to say this in the current environment.
"Well, I can't hold on any longer. It would be a waste if I don't sleep on such a comfortable big bed. I want to sleep for a while. If you find anything, wake me up."
Denci raised her hands and said that she finally couldn't hold on any longer, turned over, and closed her eyes peacefully.
In less than three seconds, her breathing began to become rhythmic.
Arai Hiroshi got angry instantly and was about to go over to wake up Denji. "This bastard! How can you sleep in this situation!"
Wu Yue reached out to stop her. "Forget it, forget it. She really can't help much. Let her sleep for a while. Hayakawa Aki, give me the backpack."
Hayakawa Aki was still carrying the backpack that Wu Yue had asked him to carry before. Upon hearing this, Hayakawa Aki took off the backpack and handed it to Wu Yue.
Wu Yue opened his backpack and dumped everything inside onto the bed.
Inside were six large bottles of mineral water and a large pile of compressed biscuits.

【Ding……】
Everyone looked at Wu Yue, with different expressions on their faces.
"Wu Yue, you...did you foresee this situation?"
Ji Ye was full of doubt, and then she remembered the conversation she had with Wu Yue before entering the building. She asked Wu Yue what was in his backpack, and Wu Yue casually replied that it was food.
Ji Ye thought it was a joke at the time and thought it might be a tool or something.
"Wu Yue, what kind of demon is the one you contracted with? What exactly are your abilities? How do you know so many things?"
Ji Ye asked.
Chapter 25: The Dance Machine in the Corner
"Wu Yue, how on earth did you know so many things in advance?"
Ji Ye's tone was full of shock and confusion.
Wu Yue shook his head slightly, a trace of helplessness appeared on his face. "I'm sorry, Senior Ji Ye, I can't tell you, this is the price of the contract."
"And I'm not omnipotent. I've already said it at the beginning. These foods are just in case. If I really knew everything in advance, I would have gone home and slept soundly by now."
After hearing what Wu Yue said, Ji Ye thought about it carefully and it seemed to be true.
Hayakawa Aki's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said anxiously, "Hey, in that case, why don't we go collect some food now? Maybe there are some guests on this floor whose food has not been taken away in time."
Wu Yue hesitated for a moment.
After all, it was the Hungry Demon who designed all this. Her ability is to control hungry people and make them chess pieces. If you are trapped in one place, how could she be so kind as to leave food for you?
But looking at Hayakawa Aki's expectant eyes, thinking that it wouldn't take much time to find it, he nodded.
"also……"
Wu Yue exited the transformation state, and everyone immediately took action. They scattered to every corner of the hotel, carefully searching every inch of the place where food might be hidden.
But there was nothing in the entire hotel lobby, corridors, and rooms. Not to mention food, there was not even anything to drink. The only food that could fill their stomachs was the mineral water and compressed biscuits that Wu Yue brought with him.
Everyone returned to the room and looked at each other. Wu Yue sorted out the food and gave each person a portion.
A long time passed in the blink of an eye. Because time was paused in this space, Wu Yue estimated based on his inner feelings that about nine hours had passed.
Wu Yue finally couldn't resist the invasion of sleepiness and fell asleep on the bed.
After an unknown amount of time, his cheek was gently poked while he was sleeping. Wu Yue woke up with a start. When he opened his eyes, he saw Ji Ye standing by the bed with a tired smile on her face.
"I'm sleepy too. Get up and let me sleep for a while."
Wu Yue rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at Denci who was still sleeping on the other bed, and asked Ji Ye in confusion why he didn't go to the next room to rest. Ji Ye shook his head.
"A cold bed, or a bed you just warmed up, which one do you think I would choose? Okay, okay, hurry up and get up. You've slept for a long time, and it's time for you to go on patrol. Let me get some sleep, too."
Wu Yue had no choice but to get up from the bed and walked out to the corridor yawning.
