Chapter 199: A Strange Noise on the Roof
The next morning, a terrible scream resounded through half of the forest, and the sound shuttled back and forth between the trees, and soon sent into the sky.
The sound seemed to be coming from outside the hotel, and many people were awakened by the scream, and they came out of their rooms and gathered in the hall below. Through the glass of the elevator, you can see the glass door that is still bright red, but there seem to be two shaking figures outside the door, which are probably the callers.
"Anyone?!Help!"
"Sister, are you awake?" Yang Xiaokai didn't see Sakura for a long time, and her door was locked all the time.
"Xiaokai, what's wrong?Isn't Sakura up yet?" Xia Cheng came out of the opposite room rubbing his eyes, poked his head over and looked at the door of the hotel, "Someone is asking for help over there, should we go over and have a look?"
As soon as Xia Cheng's words fell, the lock on the door of Sakura's room suddenly turned.
"Sister, are you alright?"
Sakuruma seemed to be resting late, and opened the door with heavy dark circles under her eyes, and nodded lightly.
"Hey, you don't look like you're fine, are you feeling unwell?" Xia Cheng stretched out his hand and touched Sakura's forehead, there was no sign of fever, and there was no other bad condition on his face except for a hint of tiredness.
"I couldn't sleep last night, there was always the sound of something rubbing outside the window, I didn't dare to approach the window, so I stayed scared until the early hours of the morning. Sakurama opened the door and pointed to the window behind the curtain.
Yang Xiaokai suddenly had no idea of going to the hall, after all, the life and death of the people there had nothing to do with him.
"I'll take a look. He walked briskly to the window, lifted the curtains, and examined the glass carefully.
Sakurama and Natsujo followed, staying far away and looking around the room, looking for any suspicious traces.
"Huh?" After repeated observations, Yang Xiaokai found a lot of scratches on the slightly higher glass, the scratches were on the other side of the glass, that is, outside the window, if it was a scratch inside the room, it would be easy to explain, but absolutely no one could touch that kind of place, "Sister, what kind of sound did you hear?"
Sakuruma recalled for a moment, frowned and said, "It's like someone scraping the glass with their fingernails, it's very harsh, but it was too late yesterday, so I didn't go looking for you." ”
"People?" Yang Xiaokai stared back at the scratches on the glass, not knowing what he was thinking, after a long time, he turned around and walked to the door, "If anything can come in, it is only the roof, I hope there is a good inspection." ”
"Kai, we didn't go to the roof yesterday, did we?"
"Well, that's why I hope those idiots haven't ignored that place, and if something comes in, it's going to be a problem. "The elevator was being used and they had to walk up the stairs to the roof.
It was dark in the staircase, there seemed to be a problem with some of the power here, there were no windows around, and the spirits of people were tense in the dark and oppressive space.
The hotel has a total of twenty-two floors, and Yang Xiaokai and his family are on the sixth floor, and they have to walk for a long time to climb up.
"Kai, what floor is it now?" Sakuruma looked around, but couldn't find the corresponding floor number.
"It's about twenty floors. "If Yang Xiaokai is not mistaken, this should be exactly the twenty floors, but the staircase up is locked by an iron door, and the lock is very new, as if it was recently locked, if this is the case, the key may be in the hands of one of them in Fujiwara.
"Isn't there any other way to get up?" Sakuruma left the staircase passage and searched around the outside to find a second way to the roof, "It seems that the others have thought about the safety of the hotel's interior." ”
"Let me do it. Xia Cheng took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, removed the wire ring on it, straightened it and inserted it into the keyhole.
"Okay?" Yang Xiaokai looked at Xia Cheng's skillful movements, and didn't bother to imagine why she had this technique.
"Click. ”
Ten seconds later, the lock latch popped out, and Xia Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, if this only wire was broken, then they would have to go to the owner of the lock to borrow it, God knows where the person is now.
"Xia Cheng, why do you have such a thing?" Sakuruma tore off the iron cable and carefully opened the iron door.
"I'm not very skilled, because I used to forget the key and lock the door out, and occasionally I saw people on TV like this, and then I tried it, and at first I failed, but I got to grips with it. Actually, I'm not sure I'll be able to open the lock, and if the wire gets stuck in the keyhole, we'll have to use a saw. ”
Yang Xiaokai ignored her and just continued to walk upward.
"Hmm? It smells so strange, like there's a lot of rust. Xia Cheng sniffed the smell around him, because the environment was very dark, so he couldn't see things here.
"It's not rust, it's blood. Yang Xiaokai said softly.
"Huh?!Blood?!"
"Hey, don't scream so loudly all of a sudden. ”
Xia Cheng immediately lowered his voice and stepped forward to ask, "How can there be blood here?"
"You take a little sample, and when you're done, ask its owner. ”
"Hmm......" Xia Cheng seemed to have been closed, so he had to follow Sakuruma and Yang Xiaokai to the last floor.
Only one last door remained in the dimly lit floor, and this one had some signs of depression, as if it had been formed by striking the outside from the inside.
Yang Xiaokai clenched the gun on his waist, and turned back and ordered, "Sister, Xia Cheng, you two go a little back." ”
"Kai, be careful. ”
"I know. Yang Xiaokai reached out and touched the doorknob, and at the same time, something suddenly hit behind the door!
"Boom—"
"What's going on?!" Xia Cheng stepped back two more steps, judging from the strength of the impact just now, it could not be a person outside, and the extra dent on the door was spiked, and there were five places after only one impact, and this dent looked like a human finger, but a human finger could not have this kind of power.
The impact continued twice more, and then fell silent, with two more five-finger dents on the door.
"Kai, it's too dangerous here, let's go back. ”
"No, it's dangerous to put these things out there. Yang Xiaokai did not listen to Sakura's persuasion, but carefully pushed open the door on the roof.
The light was thrown in from the outside, forming a white gap, and a black shadow flashed above the gap, Yang Xiaokai immediately subconsciously tightened the door panel, and the sound of wind instantly came from outside the door, like a pair of big wings flashing in the air.
"What was that?" Xia Cheng asked after looking behind him in horror and confirming that there was no one.
"I don't know, maybe it's a bird or something. ”
With that, he pushed the door open again, and it was empty outside, with the forest in the distance.
"Whew-"
When Yang Xiaokai was highly focused and was about to push open some more doors, two green eyeballs suddenly flashed in front of him from the dead corners of his gaze! Those eyeballs were the size of fists, there were no eyelids, and the pupils were also very terrifying!
"Damn, what the hell is this......" Yang Xiaokai suddenly pushed the door panel outward, slammed it hard on those eyes, and then quickly closed the door, only to hear a strange cry outside, the voice is not like a person, a bird is not like a bird, it is a monster!
The moment he pushed open the door just now, Yang Xiaokai's eyes caught a pair of huge wings, the pair of wings were fleshy, fanning in mid-air, looking very disgusting, no one wanted to touch that thing for a while.
"Xiaokai, what's out there?" Xia Cheng also seemed to see the appearance of some monsters, but he was not sure.
"It's like a meat butterfly, about the size of a human being, and it turns out that they're here to lock these things. Yang Xiaokai immediately understood why someone would lock the door from the twentieth floor to the roof, because there were no travelers from the fifteenth floor upwards, and even if the meat butterfly came in, it could only linger on the roof and the twentieth floor, and could not go down at all.
If you think about it, the two wings of that meat butterfly seem to have limbs like human hands, and the dent on this door is probably knocked out by that thing, if Sakurama said that someone was outside last night and scraped the window with their fingernails, I'm afraid it was a good thing for this meat butterfly!
"Boom!"
"Oh no, it's going to get knocked out of the way, let's hurry up. Sakurama locked the door and immediately ran in the direction of the twentieth floor, holding the iron chain and locking the iron door there, hoping that Meat Butterfly would not break all the way here.
At the same time, the elevator not far away suddenly reached this floor, and the doors opened to both sides, and a man stepped out of it.
That person is Fujiwara Ryuji, and it is estimated that he only knew that Yang Xiaokai and they were here after looking at the monitoring on the roof.
"What are you doing here? We finally locked that thing up there, are you going to let it in and kill everyone?" Fujiwara looked at Yang Xiaokai and said angrily, he didn't pay attention to the others, he just wanted to survive in this place full of monsters.
"Why didn't you tell anyone else? It looks like you didn't even talk about Ranch and F, that wound was scratched by the monster above, and sure enough, the bloody smell I smelled in the hallway was yours. Yang Xiaokai looked at the bandage on Fujiwara's right arm, he didn't tell the others about it, this was the intention to kill them.
Fujiwara subconsciously covered his wounds, and only breathed a sigh of relief after checking the iron door and lock, at least this thing could hold the monster out for a while, maybe it would leave here soon.
"You guys get out of here, don't come up again, that thing is inhumane, and normal weapons can't hurt it. Fujiwara said as he undressed and exposed his pistol.
"Have you tried?" Sakuruma asked.
"If anything, the blood that remains there is theirs. Fujiwara dragged a few tables and cabinets out of a nearby room and sealed the iron door completely, so that the monster would not want to come in again.
"What's going on down there?"
Although Fujiwara has always given people a bad impression, he has never really done anything to anyone, and Yang Xiaokai has talked to him more unscrupulously.
"The two people who left yesterday are back today, followed by a large group of unknown monsters, and now everyone is blocking the gate below, and if the two of them are allowed to enter, the monsters behind will swallow this place whole. ”
"Why do you want to do this......" Sakurama leaned on the glass next to the elevator, and the following was indeed what Fujiwara said, "Those two people are obviously not wrong......"
