Chapter 324 Haunted House
Thor did not immediately answer the visitor. He glanced around and found that there were many people coming in and out of the lobby on the first floor. A few of them were led by people wearing the same clothes, and most of them acted alone.
During the period of Saul's observation, the man next to him who looked like a hotel attendant had been waiting quietly.
The man was taller than Thor, so he kept hunching his neck when talking to Thor.
Sol did not deliberately ignore anyone. After a quick sweep, he followed the attendant's guidance and entered the hall.
"I hope to find a quiet, remote house, preferably in the suburbs, but not more than half a day's journey from the outpost town." The lobby on the first floor is decorated like
a luxury tavern, but a spacious aisle is left in the middle of the lobby. For people to walk.
In the middle of this aisle, there is also a black short-pile carpet.
When Saul walked in, there was no one else walking on the carpet but him.
Even the man who led him walked close to the carpet, but did not dare to step half a centimeter away from the carpet.
Fortunately, when Sol came in, the hall was still very lively and did not become quiet because of his entry, otherwise Sol would still feel a little embarrassed.
Although he doesn't care about other people's eyes, he doesn't like to be regarded as a national treasure all the time.
The attendant who directed Sol leaned towards him and said in a low voice that could be heard by him: "We can provide you with many choices. Please sit in the private room for a while, and we will present it to you." Detailed information."
The man led Thor to a private room-like place at the deepest part of the hall.
When Sol comes in and sits down, the male attendant will call for water and dishes.
"No need." Saul stopped his unnecessary actions. "I heard someone said that you here can complete my request the fastest. How long does it take before I see your information?" A smile appeared on the attendant's face
. Seriously, he bowed and said, "Within three minutes."
After saying that, he saluted Sol again, then quickly walked to the door and explained Sol's request to the people waiting outside.
At this moment, a distant quarrel came through the crack of the half-open door.
"...I told you, I lost my luggage in that haunted house! You guys have to help me find it!" "
Sorry, Mr. Sander, we have sent people to enter the house that you canceled, and there is nothing inside. Your luggage."
"Impossible, I was just about to move in, and I didn't even open my luggage when something happened! You sold this house to me, and you must be responsible." "But
Mr. Sander, we have been Three groups of people were sent into the house, and you were present the last time. You also knew the situation at that time. There was no ghost inside, and there was no luggage of yours." "It must have been hidden by ghosts
that time. I don't care, you must take me I found my luggage, which contains my very important things! If you lose my luggage, I will tell people everywhere that you rent out haunted houses to outsiders!" "Lord Sander...for your stay in the new
house We sympathize with your experience. Now we cannot rule out that your luggage may have been stolen by others after you left without closing the door." "Others, ha,
the house you introduced to me is in the deep mountains and old forests, and there is a lake next to it. , you can’t even see the neighbor’s roofs, tell me there are other people?”
At this time, another voice was already a little impatient.
"Mr. Sander, you asked for a secluded environment, no more than half a day's drive from the town, and preferably a lake nearby for you to take a stroll under the moon! The house we provide will definitely meet your requirements!" "But I didn't ask for it
! The house is haunted!"
The two people's voices were not loud at first, but the wizard had strong mental power and his five senses were much better than ordinary people, so Thor heard clearly.
But soon, the voices of these two people became uncontrollably louder and louder, and it was estimated that everyone in the entire hall could hear them.
At this time, the original male attendant turned around with several stacked papers, and was about to present them to Thor when he was interrupted.
Thor raised his right hand and pointed outside.
"Sir, I will ask them to be quiet right away. If you need them to come over and apologize to you..." "
I want the house that Mr. Sander vacated. If your procedures have not been completed, please invite him as well. Come here."
The attendant was stunned for a moment, but he immediately rearranged his expression and bowed his head respectfully, "No problem, sir."
So, just two minutes later, Sander, who looked embarrassed, sat across from Thor.
What came in with him was the rental agreement that had not yet been signed.
"My lord." Sander raised his head cautiously, and immediately lowered his gaze when he met Thor.
Thor scanned Sander's body without hesitation. This seemingly unreasonable Xander is actually a pretty boy.
This "little pretty face" is a very accurate adjective.
Because Sander didn't know what he was applying to his face, the effect was just a little more natural than using flour as foundation.
Fortunately, he also knew how to apply a little flesh pink on his cheeks to make him look normal. Otherwise, if he saw a ghost, he wouldn't know who should be afraid.
He also has long, slightly curly hair that hangs down to his shoulders.
But looking at the non-surprised looks of several attendants, Thor knew that this might be a dress-up custom in a certain place.
"Are you saying there is a ghost in the house you just rented?" Saul asked.
"Yes, Lord Wizard." Sander did not dare to look at Thor anymore, and could only look down at the ground in front of Thor's toes.
"What kind of ghost?"
Sander rubbed his fingers unconsciously, "I, I didn't see a ghost head-on."
After saying that, he seemed to be afraid that Sol would misunderstand that he was lying, so he quickly increased his speaking speed and continued: "Although I didn't see it from the front, there was really a ghost in that house. As soon as I walked in, the door was closed immediately. I swear, my clothes didn't get caught on the door handle, and there was no wind at all!"
It may have been suspected by countless people. Sander explained while narrating, fearing that Thor would also misunderstand him as a liar.
"And when I was going upstairs, someone pulled my trousers. I swear my feet weren't slippery! I really saw a gray-white hand! His nails were also pitch black, and he even scratched one of my trousers. Hole."
Sander then told what happened to him in a guest room on the first floor.
What "peeping eyes", what "weird laughter", what "windows that can't be closed".
Thor noticed that the attendant standing at the door, listening, had rolled his eyes impatiently.
But Saul knew that the man named Xander was not lying.
When he squinted his eyes and looked at Sander, he saw a rotten, maggot-infested gray arm hooked around Sander's neck.
Judging from the bones and skin condition of the arm, it should belong to a girl or a slender boy.
But the elbow and wrist of the rotten arm were hidden in Sander's curly hair, and it was impossible to tell whether there was someone hanging behind him.
A maggot fell into Sander's collar due to his excited movements, and the latter happened to raise his hand after a few seconds and scratched at his chest casually.
"Sir, what I said is true. Please believe me!"
After telling everything, Sander finally raised his head and stared hard at his big sincere eyes, trying to impress the powerful wizard in front of him.
