Chapter 295: Infiltrate


    “In the area covered by my Little Demon Eye, there are three ces obscured by a thick fog and are thus invisible.


    The first is the public hot spring.


    The second is the hotel’s lobby and the cashier area.


    The third is the staff dormitory built on the side of the hotel, which is the area upied by the employees.


    Any thoughts on this?”


    “Let my little spiders go check it out first…”


    Mia, in synergy with her curse, released an invisible spider of rtively smaller size.


    The moment the invisible spiders approached these three areas, they were immediately seized by a chilling sensation and instantaneously froze to death.


    “The three areas all have barriers…My little spiders can’t infiltrate them. Ay, there’s nothing I can do then.”


    At that moment.


    At a spot near the edge of a nearby rooftop.


    “Owl Protection”.


    Abe Rhein’s pupils were covered with a light green sheen. He sat neatly at the edge, observing the situation inside the hot spring hotel.


    Having analyzed the information, he returned to the team to report.


    “The situation in the three areas obscured by the white fog is as follows:


    In the lobby and cashier area, I am able to prate the bricks of the wall and sense a very powerful entity inside, which seems to be the ndy’ of the hotel.


    Even when using the Owl’s Eye, I can only catch a faint glimpse of a blurred deep blue figure.


    As for the center of the public hot spring, a strong aura simr to thendy is emanating…At the bottom of the spring, it seems there’s an unknown danger buried.”


    As for the employee dormitory built against the mountain, it does not have a danger aura simr to the previous two.”


    Han Dong lightly tapped Abe’s arm with his fist andplimented, “Impressive…”


    Among abilities equivalent to various types of eyes.


    Han Dong’s ‘Little Demon Eye’ is absolutely top-level.


    However, it’s limited to visual observation only.


    In situations like this where the vision is obstructed, it’s impossible to gather more in-depth information.


    However, it’s different for Abe.


    Abe possesses Hundred Beasts, which significantly enhance his five senses.


    Perhaps the ‘Owl’s Eye’ is not as bizarre as the ‘Little Demon Eye’.


    But Abe can also collect unique information through his sense of smell, hearing and some unique intuitions of beasts. He performs integrated analysis and reaches conclusions that Han Dong cannot reach with just one eye.


    “Nichs…what do you think?” Abe asked.


    “We should go directly to the employees’ dormitory…There is no need to provoke these troublesome guys before finding the origin of the Strange Tales,” he responded.


    “Alright.”


    They all descended from the rooftop using the most covert methods, deliberately taking a detour and stealthily approaching the dormitory on the other side of the hotel via the forest.


    As soon as they descended from the rooftop and entered the forest.


    Han Dong turned his head and identally caught a glimpse of the ndy’ that Abe had mentioned by the main gate of the lobby.


    Deep blue kimono.


    When her barefoot feet touched the ground, ayer of mist would be released.


    There was a jade hairpin on her head and her hairstyle was sombre.


    In her left hand she held an exquisite Tachi that reflected moonlight, and in her right was a poisoned green short knife.


    Her face was hidden in the thick fog and darkness and couldn’t be clearly seen. She gave off a very dangerous feeling.


    “We should avoid her…”


    They ascended through the pitch-ck forest.


    They discovered plenty of unfortunate guests who had fled to the forest near the hot spring hotel but were still killed.


    Their bodies were hanged in the trees, and the fear in their pupils still hadn’t dissipated even after death.


    After taking a big detour, they finally arrived in front of a two-story, row-style dormitory.


    All the young and beautiful employees lived here.


    Han Dong even saw a recruitment billboard by the roadside.


    The hot spring hotel has been recruiting young women between the ages of 18 and 25 for a long time. There are no requirements for education or work experience, the only requirement is to be decent and meet the appearance standard.


    But the hotel itself seems quite regr. At least in Han Dong’s view, it wouldn’t provide any illegal services.


    So, what do they want to do with so many young women?


    “Unlimited creation?”


    Han Dong and his group observed the dormitory for a short while.


    It was found that every so often, a beautiful waitress would emerge from the dormitory, the strangtion mark on her neck clearly visible.


    “Initially, the employees in the hotel didn’t have any strangtion marks…If we can find the source of these marks, we should be able to find the corresponding location of the Strange Tales.


    We need to infiltrate more covertly next.


    Mia, you stay outside with Winry.


    Abe and I will try to infiltrate the employee dormitory.”


    “Why not me and you?” Mia wasn’t too happy.


    “The Demon Sword is on your body. The Demon Sword is sealed by spider silk, but there’s a high chance it could be detected if we get too close to the sword’s owner…. the moment Abe and I find the Crooked Neck Tree we will signal you.”


    “Okay… continue!”


    Mia let a Wolf Spider crawl into Han Dong’s sleeve.


    “If there’s any danger, tell it straight away. Winry and I wille to help immediately.”


    “Hmm…”


    The moment the next waitress just left the dormitory.


    Two shadows quickly darted into the dormitory.


    In the dark corridor faintly lit by the moonlight, all the doors of the dormitory were open… but there were no employees in the rooms.


    Four employees can reside in the room with the structure of bunk beds.


    From the dressing tables in the room piled with various makeup products, and some dolls and female decorations, it can be seen that the employees here lead a normal life on a regr basis.


    Han Dong and Abe hid in an unupied room and made some observations.


    Every so often.


    A waitress in a kimono with a strangtion mark on her neck would randomlye out of an empty room…why do waitresses appear inexplicably from empty rooms?


    Just as Han Dong and Abe rummaged through an empty room in a dormitory, trying to find hiddenpartments.


    Click!


    The door to the independent bathroom in the room suddenly closed.


    Then, the doorknob gently turned from the inside.


    When the door opened again.


    A waitress with a smile on her face walked out from the inside.


    Raven Feathers cloaked Han Dong, and hepletely hid in a corner.


    Abe activated Tortoise Guardian, his heart temporarily stopped, and his body was wrapped in nkets…


    They sessfully went invisible.


    So, the problem obviously lies with the bathroom.


    “If the secret passage is in the bathroom, can’t the waitresses just walk out? Why create an extra process of ‘opening and closing the door’?”


    With that thought.


    Han Dong recalled the interval of opening and closing the door just now and the speed of opening the door.


    He repeated the process of opening and closing the door again.


    The original small bathroom actually turned into a downward staircase, and a constant cold aura emanated from below.


    “Is it another Ovepping Space design? There’s a switch on the bathroom door? Is it switched by opening and closing the door?”


    The familiar voice of the old woman echoed in his mind, as if it was time for a bedtime story again.


    “Strange Tales – Ghost of Huan.”
