Chapter 222: Dark Hour (14)
Squeak-
The shrill sound of the bearing moving suddenly sounded from the darkness in front of him, making Jiang Liang inevitably look at the empty and dark equipment passage around him with some caution.
The sound was made by the secret door of the emergency exit, and the long period of inactivity caused too much dust to accumulate on the door panels made of rust-resistant materials.
The dust has formed a hard shell that connects the façade to the door frame, making the bracket inside the door a little overwhelmed and making a two-phase wrestling sound.
The time it takes to open the door is very short, that is, three or two seconds.
And these short three or two seconds made Jiang Liang look back eagerly two or three times.
The equipment passages around me were empty, and there was only unsettling and hesitant darkness.
Without any hesitation, he stepped into the compartment where the emergency exit was, and the smell of dust and the tighter and richer darkness instantly engulfed Jiang Liang's figure.
He stomped his foot vigorously, and the light that sensed the sound of footsteps lit up.
An emergency communication device connected to the security room and a spare equipment room access control system are all that is the compartment where the emergency exit is located.
Both the emergency communication equipment and the access control system are available 24 hours a day.
At this time, the access control system is running normally, but a pop-up window is highlighted on the display screen of the emergency communication equipment.
The pop-up window displays the words "Failed to connect with the security room, trying to reconnect, please refer to the first and third sequence errors for troubleshooting".
After seeing the words on the pop-up window clearly, Jiang Liang's face couldn't help but turn a little pale, and he looked at the entrance of the emergency exit compartment that was still open, with a slightly dazed look in his eyes.
After half a ring, Jiang Hao hurriedly controlled the access control system as if he suddenly reacted, closed and locked the entrance to the cubicle, but did not open the emergency exit to leave here.
The first sequence error is a basic channel error, which represents a failure of the physical channel between the security room and the compartment where the emergency exit is located.
In this case, it is not difficult to imagine that the physical channel connecting to the security room has been truncated.
As for the third sequence error, it is a signal transmitter error.
This is not surprising, since personal terminals are no longer able to communicate with the outside world, and signal transmitters with similar channels to personal terminals cannot escape the interception of these unknown intruders.
At this time, the equipment room was still full of alarms that the coolant of the information transfer unit was running out, and Jiang Liang sat on the seat in front of the emergency communication equipment in a gloomy manner, hesitating whether he should stay here and wait for death, or take a risk and walk out of the equipment room.
There is no doubt that staying in the equipment room does not guarantee the safety of the individual.
After all, the existence of emergency exits is not a secret, and for security reasons, the doors of emergency exits are designed to be opened from the access control systems of other exits, even if they are locked from the inside.
Therefore, after thinking about it again, Jiang Liang still felt that it was possible to take the initiative to maintain a glimmer of life.
Of course, for Jiang Liang, taking the initiative is not to kill these intruders with unknown purposes and unknown numbers, but to smoothly get rid of the current dangerous environment and escape from the crisis-ridden company.
After observing the situation outside the emergency exit through the access control system, Jiang Liang hurriedly ran to the location of the emergency exit after carefully confirming that there was no trace of any suspicious person within the range that could be displayed by the access control system, and even a figure did not exist.
With all his strength, he unscrewed the latch of the emergency exit as quickly as possible, and before the door was opened under the control of the machine, Jiang Liang and his body squeezed out of the door.
When he went out, Jiang Liang almost tripped over the stones on the ground, and subconsciously glanced back only to find that there was a figure crawling outside the door of the emergency exit, which was slowly sliding to the ground with the opening of the door.
The figure on the ground, dressed in the uniform of an equipment manager, leaned sideways against the door of the emergency exit.
Because the position of his figure was too low, Jiang Liang had never seen the existence of this figure in the access control system before.
What almost tripped Jiang Liang was the figure sitting on his legs at his side, and at this time, the figure was twisted and pushed away from the door as the hole in the emergency exit door opened.
There was a "plop", and the figure that was originally leaning on the side of the door fell to the ground on its back.
In this way, the other party's face was exposed in front of Jiang Liang's eyes.
It was an old face covered with blood and sweat, and from his distorted and hideous expression, it could be seen that the other party was suffering and fearing before dying.
This fear spread to Jiang Liang's heart the moment Jiang Liang saw the other party's face in his eyes.
The one who fell to the ground and forcibly pushed away for the door was Lao Tian, who was still talking and laughing with him not long ago.
Jiang Liangyou had thought that Lao Tian had suffered a misfortune, but he never thought that the place where he was killed was so close to him.
It is also unclear whether Lao Tian was killed by the intruder who pursued him or if someone else was there, but it is certain that this place should not be left for long.
The first is that Jiang Liang does not dare to bet on whether the person who killed Lao Tian and the person who pursued him and was frozen by him are the same person, and the second is that waiting for the pursuer's vital signs to disappear will inevitably attract more intruders here.
Enduring the discomfort and sudden fear in his heart, Jiang Liang took a deep look at Lao Tian's corpse that was gradually pushed aside by the portal of the emergency exit, and decisively turned around and pressed against the wall of the equipment room and rushed towards the door.
Maybe it was because they were on the edge of the company's campus, and except for three or two device administrators, no one usually came here, so Jiang Liang didn't encounter any intruders or other device administrators along the way.
The entire park was silent, as if everything that happened was Jiang Liang's hallucination.
And when he walked to the security room at the door, hiding in the shadows of the equipment room on the side and observing the situation in the security room, this feeling became even stronger.
I saw Tongxiang, who was wearing a security suit, lying on the chair of the surveillance screen, looking up and listening to the song.
Although Jiang Liang had never seen the other party's appearance clearly from a distance, he could clearly know from the other party's shaking leg posture and shaking his head that it was definitely Tongxiang himself sitting in the security room at this moment.
looked around with some caution, no matter how sure he was in his heart at this time, before he saw the whole picture of the other party, Jiang Liang had never lost his mind and directly showed his figure and swaggered close to the security room.
Quietly taking a circle in the shadows of various buildings, Jiang Liang looked in the direction of the security room again.
At this point, he was about 140° away from his position.
Looking at the security room from this angle, I just saw most of the other party's face.
Shoehorn face, hooked nose, thick dark circles, after seeing these iconic features, Jiang Liang's heart couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The people sitting in the security room were indeed Tongxiang, which meant that he was right, and the intruders did not enter the company through the main entrance.
When this thought came to mind, Jiang Liang subconsciously glanced at the towering walls and security measures on both sides.
However, due to the urgency of time, Jiang Liang didn't think much about it, and the moment he heard the voice coming from the direction where the equipment room was located, he dodged from the dark and ran to the direction where the security room was located.
"Click-"
Jiang Liang, who arrived at the door of the security room, raised his hand anxiously and pressed the doorknob of the security room.
However, with just one push, the door to the security room was opened as usual without any obstacles.
Looking at the portal that opened a gap, Jiang Liang's cold hairs stood up in an instant.
A large amount of cold sweat welled up from his back, and his whole body froze in the doorway.
Tongxiang, who heard the sound, turned to look at the door, and said to Jiang Liang with a smile:
"Brother Liang, are you back? Why don't you come in?
Hearing Tongxiang's voice, Jiang Hao reacted instantaneously like a puppet that had been touched by a switch, but his tone was a little stiff:
"Ah?...... Ahh
"I'm in a bit of a hurry at home, Xiangzi, you open the door for me, I'm ...... I'll be back in a moment. ”
When Tongxiang heard Jiang Liang's words, he didn't open the door without saying a word as usual, but propped his elbow on the armrest of the seat, supported his chin with his palm, and turned his head sideways to Jiang Liang and asked:
"It's so late, Brother Liang, what's the urgency, can't you talk to your brother before you go on the road?"
Hearing Tongxiang's words, Jiang Liang's heart, which was half chilled instantly, was completely cold.
His gaze was fixed on the other's other hand.
At this moment, the hand was playing with an energy weapon that was completely different from the stun gun equipped by the security personnel, and its owner was looking at Jiang Liang with a smile.
Some obedient obedient to Tongxiang's gesture walked to the side of the security room facing the outside of the park, looking at the brilliant lights in the distance, the night scene of the heavenly court that is rare for hundreds of years, and then looked at the dead silence of the company park behind him, Jiang Liang couldn't help but ask Tongxiang:
"Why are you doing this, aren't you afraid of being hunted down by the Clan Joint Investigation Team?"
Hearing Jiang Liang's words, Tongxiang got up and walked to his side, patted Jiang Liang's cheek with a gun, and said in a resentful tone he had never seen before:
"Clan Joint Investigation Team?"
"How can the joint clan investigation team you call defend the interests of us ordinary people?"
"Look at where we are now, look at the towering building in the distance, look at your Guan Yang clan's clan land that occupies a quarter of the size of the entire Guanlan Tianque, do these things have anything to do with us?!"
"Why don't you know anything to become a full-time technician in the company, and I'm just a janitor?"
"Why can you clan children go to work for three days, fish for two days, and dry nets, and it's still called a holiday?"
"Why am I tired and tired, day and night watching the door for the company, I only deserve to be disgusted by my girlfriend, and I don't even have a serious job?!"
At this time, the distorted face of Tongxiang, who was roaring angrily, was even more terrifying than that of Lao Tian.
Soon, a happy smile appeared on his face.
I saw that he grabbed Jiang Liang's hair with one hand and pressed it hard against the glass in front of him, while his other hand pointed in the direction of the clan joint investigation team and said frantically:
"Look, look! you exploiters have fallen!"
In the midst of Tong Xiang's words, a dazzling light suddenly lit up from the darkness in the sky, and then turned into a shining meteor and went straight to the headquarters of the Clan Joint Investigation Team.
In the blink of an eye, the meteor crashed into the location of the headquarters of the Clan Joint Investigation Team.
In the next second, the entire Guanlan Tianque shook violently, as if it had encountered a bumpy air flow when taking an airplane.
As time passed, the shaking of the ground became more and more violent.
Suddenly, there was a violent throbbing of the earth.
At the site where the meteor fell, an unparalleled burst of light.
In the bright light, the iconic edifice of the Clan Joint Investigation Team headquarters vanished without warning.
Jiang Liang, who watched this scene happen, froze in place, and then struggled to look in the direction where the Guanyang clan was located.
From Jiang Liang's current location, he couldn't see the Guanyang clan's clan land, but this didn't make him feel at peace in his heart.
Because a ball of light that was brighter than the sun appeared out of thin air above the clan land.
The ball of light was wrapped around a creature that looked like an insect, and was reaching for the ground with its hideous, strange tentacles.
With a "poof", the ball of light exploded in mid-air like a bubble.
A waterfall of light appeared in the sky.
A river of light appeared between the levels.
A lake formed by light appeared on the earth.
Looking at the bright light that stinged his eyes, Jiang Liang never blinked, but he knew very well in his heart:
His home, his relatives, are gone.
