The first to arrive at the hotel room were the hotel security staff but they were stopped by Jin Zhen-Huan, who’d stayed behind. They entered the room but Jin Zhen-Huan did not allow them to touch the ‘corpses’ of Xia Lei and Shentu Tian-Yin. 

“I’ve checked. They’re dead,” said Jin Zhen-Huan to the hotel security staff. 

“What happened?” asked one of the security staff.

“Some gunmen attacked us and killed them, then escaped. Call the police. The crime scene must not be touched,” said Jin Zhen-Huan. 

“There’s no need for a doctor?” asked one of the security staff.

“Have you seen their wounds?” said Jin Zhen-Huan. 

The security staff looked at Xia Lei and Shentu Tian-Yin on the ground. They were covered in fresh blood and bullet holes could be seen in their chests, right where their hearts were. Fatal wounds like these were impossible for gods to heal, much less for a doctor even if he came.

“Looks like they really are dead but we should still have a doctor confirm it,” said the leader of the security team. He used his walkie-talkie to call the main station to send a doctor over.
