SFS Chapter 165 Night at the Museum
Chapter 165 Night at the Museum
In comparison, the inner world is undoubtedly more sinister, terrifying, and extremely dangerous than the outer world.
Despite having learned all this, Ji Lin still had a lingering question – why did they suddenly feel someone gently patting them?
Dick was also unable to give a definite answer to this question, and then he explained Jack's condition to everyone.
In the real world, Jack, who was originally normal, suddenly started behaving strangely and abnormally.
All of this stemmed from his being bewitched and seduced by evil spirits within the Distant View Hotel. These evil spirits possessed mysterious and unpredictable powers, capable of subtly influencing human thoughts and actions.
With the source of the evil spirit eliminated, the dark power that had been shrouding Jack also vanished without a trace, and Ji Lin and his group returned to the real world.
At this moment, the Yaowang Hotel seemed to have been reborn, and there was no longer a trace of black aura.
The eerie and terrifying atmosphere that once permeated the air has vanished, replaced by a peaceful and tranquil scene.
Ji Lin first handed the black chef, Dick, a beautifully designed business card with his contact information printed on it, then turned and left the Yaowang Hotel with Xinghai and Huan'er…
Several days after leaving the Distant View Hotel, Ji Lin embarked on his journey back to New York.
The key factor that prompted him to make this decision was the country's holiday schedule, with Thanksgiving just around the corner.
As we all know, Thanksgiving is a long-standing traditional festival in Western countries, and in the United States, it is an important time for families to gather together and share joyful moments.
Although Ji Lin himself had no interest in celebrating the holiday, he could hardly resist the enthusiastic invitations from Rachel, Max, and others.
During this period, Ji Lin has been traveling around, and along the way, he has been eliminating the demons and evil spirits that are causing trouble in the world.
However, even when he was away from home, he always maintained close contact with everyone.
Surprisingly, neither Rachel nor Max showed any interest in returning home to celebrate the holidays.
That's why they hit it off immediately and decided to get together with their friends to celebrate this special holiday on their own.
Faced with such sincere and earnest requests from his friends, Ji Lin naturally couldn't bear to refuse and had no choice but to gladly agree.
At this moment, Ji Lin was sitting leisurely in the passenger seat, with Huan'er in charge of the steering wheel, driving the vehicle towards New York.
As night quietly fell and the last rays of the sun disappeared below the horizon, the car finally slowly drove into the bustling city of New York.
As Huan'er drove through the brightly lit city, Ji Lin, who had been relaxed, suddenly frowned and keenly sensed an unusual energy fluctuation.
Following the intense energy fluctuations, Ji Lin and his companions sped along until they arrived at the entrance of a magnificent natural history museum.
This museum has a unique architectural style and is full of artistic atmosphere.
Without hesitation, they entered the museum, only to be greeted by a shocking scene.
A man in a security guard uniform was surrounded by a group of menacing-looking people. Judging from their posture, it seemed they were going to execute him by tearing him apart!
Seeing the critical situation, Ji Lin rushed forward with lightning speed.
With a flash, he plunged into the crowd, and with a powerful wave of his hands, those who had been so aggressive were sent flying in all directions like rice stalks blown down by a strong wind.
Ji Lin stood firmly, reached out and grabbed the security guard, rescuing him from the danger.
At this moment, the still-shaken security guard looked at Ji Lin with tears of gratitude and said, "Hi, thank you so much, friend! My name is Larry."
Ji Lin smiled slightly and replied, "Don't mention it, my name is Ji Lin."
However, before the two could exchange a few pleasantries, a sudden commotion came from the second floor.
Immediately afterwards, a large group of all kinds of animals broke through the fence and ran out wildly! Lions, tigers, elephants... all kinds of ferocious beasts were there, baring their teeth and roaring as they charged towards the lobby on the first floor.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, Ji Lin acted decisively, gently patting Larry's shoulder to signal him to calm down.
Then, Ji Lin took a deep breath, exerted force with his legs, and leaped high into the air like an arrow, landing precisely at the entrance to the stairs leading to the second floor, successfully blocking the path of the out-of-control animals.
After gaining a firm footing, Ji Lin no longer hesitated and instantly unleashed his powerful aura.
In an instant, an invisible pressure spread outwards from him in all directions.
The once ferocious animals trembled with fear upon sensing this terrifying power, involuntarily collapsing to the ground, no longer daring to move an inch.
Because Ji Lin possesses the amazing ability to adapt to languages from all worlds, he can communicate with these animals without any obstacles.
He told them in a dignified and deep voice not to panic and ordered them to return to their respective enclosures immediately. In the animal kingdom, the law of the strong always applies.
The animals deeply felt the unparalleled power and might emanating from Ji Lin, so they obediently stood up and turned back to their original exhibition hall.
Then, Ji Lin's sharp eyes swept around the surroundings, and he solemnly gave the order: "Huan'er, Xinghai, you two immediately split up and carefully check every corner to see if any exhibits have managed to escape."
"Remember, don't overlook any clues!" Huan'er and Xinghai acted swiftly after receiving the instructions.
Just as Ji Lin finished giving his instructions, he noticed Larry not far away, who was slumped on the ground like a deflated balloon, scratching his hair incessantly.
Seeing this, Ji Lin quickly walked to his side. He waved his hand lightly, a faint light flashed, and then a bottle of chilled beer appeared in his hand.
Ji Lin smiled and handed the bottle of beer to Larry, saying, "Here, have some beer to relax."
Larry looked up at Ji Lin with some surprise, hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the bottle of beer, tilting his head back to gulp it down.
As the cool drink slid down his throat, Larry seemed to calm down a little.
At this moment, Ji Lin took the initiative to extend his hand and introduce himself, saying, "My name is Ji Lin, and I'm very happy to meet you here."
Larry grasped Ji Lin's outstretched hand and replied, "I'm Larry, thank you for the beer earlier." And just like that, Ji Lin and Larry officially became acquainted.
In fact, from the moment he stepped into the museum and saw the chaotic scene before him, Ji Lin had already roughly guessed what kind of situation he was about to encounter.
Isn't this exactly the plot of the movie "Night at the Museum"?
After a tense and exciting night of work, thanks to the combined efforts of Ji Lin, Xinghai, and Huan'er, the museum did not experience any major disturbance.
The once lifelike exhibits seemed to realize that a powerful figure had arrived in the museum that night, and thus they all became well-behaved.
When the first rays of sunlight pierced the clouds the next morning, and golden light flooded into the museum like a tide, a magical scene unfolded.
All the exhibits instantly stopped moving, returning to their original still state, as if last night's thrilling adventure was just a dream...
After a long night, the morning light streamed into the room through the window.
Ji Lin and Larry's relationship grew much closer after that night. Perhaps it was the magical effect of alcohol that made the usually taciturn Larry open up and talk endlessly about his past experiences.
Ji Lin sat quietly to the side, like a loyal listener, silently listening to every word Larry said.
Time slipped by unnoticed until Ji Lin glanced into the hall and discovered that Larry was fast asleep, completely drunk.
Seeing Larry completely drunk, Ji Lin didn't say much. He simply got up quietly and began to clean up the trash scattered around him.
After finishing these tasks, Ji Lin picked up the trash bag and headed towards the door.
When he reached the door, Ji Lin stopped, glanced back at Larry who was still fast asleep, then gently closed the door and turned to leave.
At this moment, Xinghai and Huan'er were standing outside the door waiting for him. Seeing Ji Lin come out, the two hurriedly went to greet him.
"How is Larry?" Xinghai asked curiously.
Ji Lin smiled slightly and replied, "He drank too much and has already fallen asleep. Let's go first, so as not to disturb his rest."
