Chapter 737: "Silent Hill"?
Du Xinghe was stunned by Lu Qin's question, and said: "I didn't keep my promise, Cloud World has always had a plan to release an album for you, but it seems that your schedule has always been unscheduled, right?" β
"Hee-hee, just kidding, why are you so serious." Lu Qin suddenly smiled slyly, and opened the topic: "Are you and Xu Nuo okay lately?" Didn't the national media pick up the awkward things between the two of us, right? β
Du Xinghe smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xu Nuo and I won't bother ourselves because of this little thing." After all, after all, after he became famous, the gossip tabloids across the country, including some orthodox media, were cracking down on the affair between him and Lu Qin, and Lu Qin was in the position of his real girlfriend, and he was worried that Xu Nuo would have an opinion. However, Xu Nuo has seen it now, and she also knows how to look at the problem from the perspective of the cloud world, as long as there is Du Xinghe's sincerity, others can say whatever they like, and they can think whatever they like, she doesn't care. She is now the same as Du Xinghe, she just wants the cloud world to develop better, because he knows that only when the cloud world really becomes an aircraft carrier that is not alarmed, can Du Xinghe really get rid of these trivial things and really take her to live the kind of life that the two of them want to live.
Lu Qin was told this by Du Xinghe, and his heart was sour, and he said: "I really don't know how the two of you are so good, I can't dig the foot of the wall if I want to." β
Du Xinghe smiled: "Hehe, don't keep making jokes like this, isn't it good for us to be friends?" β
Lu Qin sighed and pouted, and it was not good to be hypocritical anymore. Then he chatted with Du Xinghe about playing tennis. She wanted to know how Du Xinghe could play tennis so well.
Du Xinghe only used his talent and hard work to prevaricate, and he didn't want to talk more about tennis, because he didn't have much to talk about tennis, but music, and he wanted to talk more about Lu Qin.
He admired Lu Qin's unique jazz singing style, and learned that Lu Qin was going to sing a song of "Oxygen" that he had written to her in the first round of the top 100 finals, and it was a re-adapted version, Du Xinghe was very curious and wanted to hear it quickly.
Lu Qin saw that Du Xinghe was so attentive to her music, and her heart became beautiful. She also wanted to sing to Du Xinghe. asked Du Xinghe, a super genius, to help give some advice, so she invited Du Xinghe to her room to listen to the song. She has already recorded the adapted "Oxygen", which is on her computer.
So the two of them ate for a while, and after they were full. I was going to go to the executive suite where Lu Qin lived to continue chatting and talking about music.
While the two of them were having dinner. It's not even eight o'clock. The time was not too late, Du Xinghe felt that it was not a big deal to go to Lu Qin's room and be alone with Lu Qin, anyway, to talk about music.
The two left the Tang Dynasty banquet. They got on the elevator together and walked upstairs in silence.
"Ding."
On the 6th floor, the elevator stopped.
The door opens.
But no one was outside the door.
"Ding."
When we got to the 7th floor, the elevator stopped again.
The door opens.
There's still no one outside the door!
It is said that there is no one on the first floor, and it may be a coincidence - it is possible that someone pressed the elevator, forgot something, and went back to the room to get something, so he didn't sit on the elevator, but he couldn't cancel it after pressing it, so he had to let the elevator stop empty.
can be like this for two consecutive layers, which makes Du Xinghe and Lu Qin a little puzzled. In a five-star hotel like Sihai, the security measures should be very good, and the guests are relatively high, how can anyone engage in such a prank? ββThis must be a prank, right?
Du Xinghe and Lu Qin were in the elevator, Du Xinghe stood close to the button, he raised his hand and pressed the close button again, and said to Lu Qin at the same time: "It's a little interesting, stop two floors in a row, and the next floor will be like this again, let's change the elevator and sit on it." β
Lu Qin nodded in agreement, although she is a super female genius in the computer industry and believes in the power of science, but in an ancient capital like Chang'an, which is full of all kinds of strange stories, she always listens to her friends talk about the supernatural events here, and she is a little taboo in her heart. The elevators on two floors in a row stopped inexplicably, which made her think that there might be something dirty.
Du Xinghe also said casually for this consideration, so he changed to the elevator. He himself has experienced more bizarre things than ordinary people, and he has really seen a ghost like Wang Bo, he is very taboo about this kind of thing.
After the elevator door closed, it ran up again, and the mood of both people was a little strange.
to the 8th floor.
"Ding!"
Sure enough, the elevator stopped again!
Du Xinghe and Lu Qin both frowned, the two stood side by side, looking towards the gradually opening door, there was still no one!
Du Xinghe felt strange, and went out to take a look, there was no one in the entire elevator room, and there was no one in the corridor, what were you doing?
Lu Qin was left alone in the elevator, and suddenly felt scared, so she also came out.
"Do you want to change the elevator?" When he came to Du Xinghe's side, Lu Qin frowned and asked Du Xinghe, and unnaturally grabbed Du Xinghe's arm. I don't know why, she suddenly felt cautious, and she had to rely on Du Xinghe to feel at ease.
Du Xinghe also felt that the atmosphere was quite weird, and the surrounding environment was suffocating. The guest room floor of the Four Seas Hotel is indeed very quiet, the sound insulation effect is very good, as long as no one walks around in the corridor, it is usually quiet, but even if it is quiet, it should not be quiet until now, right? Now it felt like the world was all still, and there was no sound except for the subtle sounds he and Lu Qin made.
In such a strange situation, Lu Qin took his arm, and Du Xinghe didn't feel inappropriate, but felt more relieved, after all, there was a living person by his side, not him alone to face such a strange thing.
"Let's sit on a different one."
Du Xinghe also decided to change the elevator. The two of them came to another elevator and pressed the arrow pointing upward.
"Ding!"
It turned out that the elevator door was closed, but then it opened again. There are a total of four passenger elevators in the elevator hall, and the system is common among them, and when the guest presses the button, the nearest elevator will come to open the door. Before the elevator left just now, Du Xinghe pressed the arrow upward. The door opened again, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.
Du Xinghe just pressed it with his back and didn't notice that the elevator was still on the eighth floor.
Lu Qin glanced back and felt that the elevator was seeping, so he said to Du Xinghe: "Let's wait, wait for the elevator to leave and then press it." β
"Hmm." Du Xinghe also felt an inexplicable nervousness, this tension came from the surprisingly quiet environment, the whole building seemed to have become lifeless, there was no sound at all, this feeling was really strange. He had never felt such a quiet world.
The elevator behind is not entered. No one operated either. Soon the door closed again. Du Xinghe and Lu Qin looked back at the elevator, wanting to wait for the elevator to leave the 8th floor, and then they pressed the elevator button.
But strange things happened, after the elevator closed. The display above shows 8 layers all the time. In other words, it has been parked on the 8th floor and has not moved.
I waited almost two minutes. The elevator behind didn't move at all, and it stopped on the 8th floor, which made Lu Qin feel more cautious and panicked. It stands to reason that this time should be when hotel guests are busier to come and go, why doesn't anyone use that elevator? And not only that, but none of the four elevators in this elevator hall moved! It's all stopped! That is to say, for such a long time, no one has used these elevators, what is going on?
Du Xinghe is also aware of this problem, a five-star hotel full of people, eight o'clock in the evening is the time to go out for dinner or come back after dinner, how can no one enter and exit and use the elevator?
Lu Qin tightened Du Xinghe's arm and asked Du Xinghe, "Do you think it's strange?" β
Du Xinghe nodded, didn't speak, waited for another two minutes, and saw that the four elevators were still not moving, Du Xinghe decided not to wait, he said to Lu Qin: "Let's take the stairs and go up to the ninth floor to have a look." β
"What to see on the ninth floor?" Lu Qin asked Du Xinghe nervously, she was a little worried about taking the stairs now, because this quiet environment was too weird.
"Let's see if the ninth floor has also been pressed." Du Xinghe told Lu Qin that when the two of them came up just now, the 6th, 7th, and 8th floors were all stopped, and they should have been pressed from the outside. He suspected that the 9th floor might have been pressed. If it's a prank, it's boring. Out of a strange instinct, Du Xinghe felt that the problems they were facing now were much more troublesome than pranks.
With Lu Qin, the two walked into the stairwell and climbed the stairs to the restaurant.
The stairwell is also quiet and scary, the footsteps of the two people will even echo the kind of quiet, they can even hear their own breathing, this too quiet taste, so that they don't want to talk more, Lu Qin held Du Xinghe's arm tightly, and followed Du Xinghe upstairs without leaving an inch.
After coming to the 9th floor, I walked out of the stairwell and entered the luxuriously decorated guest room corridor, the dim corridor corridor lamp reflected the crimson carpet, and the entire corridor seemed to be lifeless, and there was still no shadow of any person, nor any sound.
Du Xinghe took Lu Qin to the stairwell, and saw that the elevator on this floor was not pressed, and the elevator buttons were dark. Seeing this scene, Du Xinghe realized that he had made a very stupid mistake, just now he judged that the elevator button on the 9th floor could also be pressed - this is impossible, because if the elevator button on the 9th floor is pressed, the elevator that just stopped on the 8th floor will come up, and the four elevators in the stairwell just now are all stopped, which means that no one in the whole building has pressed the elevator button.
Lu Qin has changed from holding Du Xinghe's arm to holding Du Xinghe's arm with one hand and holding Du Xinghe's hand with the other. Is this a prank on your part? Wiped everyone out? β
Du Xinghe lowered his head and glanced at Lu Qin with a wry smile, and said, "How can I have so much energy to take everyone away?" I also think the quietness in this hotel is too much. Let's go and take a look at the 10th floor, several of our company's staff members live on the 10th floor, go and see if they are there. β
Du Xinghe took Lu Qin into the stairwell again and went up to the 10th floor from the stairwell.
Like the 9th floor, the 10th floor was still as quiet as a tomb, and in such a quiet environment, the light of the corridor lamp became strange in their eyes.
Lu Qin hugged Du Xinghe's arm tightly, which could be regarded as rubbing Du Xinghe's oil, but she was really a little scared, so she grabbed Du Xinghe so tightly. Du Xinghe could feel Lu Qin's nervousness, and he himself was a little nervous. Because he felt more and more that things were going in a weirder direction than he had imagined. He took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Liao Nan and ask if Liao Nan was in the building, but at this time his mobile phone had no signal at all.
Lu Qin saw that Du Xinghe's mobile phone had no signal, so she quickly took out her mobile phone from her glittering little handbag to check, and her mobile phone had no signal!
The mobile phones they use are the most cutting-edge technology products in this era, and there are basically no dead ends in the Sihai Hotel before, except for the lack of signal in the elevator, there are signals in other places, but now. The two of them had no signal on their phones at all. This made the feelings of the two even more complicated. The two looked at each other with their phones. They didn't talk, but they both saw an unknown look of nervousness in each other's eyes.
Du Xinghe remembered that when he returned to the hotel in the afternoon to check in, several staff members, including Ye Xun, lived on the 10th floor, so he hurried to those rooms to find someone.
"Bang bang! β¦β¦ Bang Bang Bang! β¦β¦ Xiao Zheng! Liangzi! β¦β¦ Bang Bang Bang! β¦β¦ Bang Bang Bang! The corridor echoed with Du Xinghe's call. But no one in the room responded.
Du Xinghe came to the door of room 1006 again. Knock on Ye Xun's door: "Bang bang!" β¦β¦ Bang Bang Bang! β¦β¦ Kaoru-chan! β¦β¦ Ye Xun! β¦β¦ Bang Bang Bang !! "He banged on the door with a lot of force. In the end, it was almost all a slam on the door. Half an hour ago, Ye Xun only left from the Tang Dynasty Banquet, and she was tired all day. I'm sure I'll go back to my room to rest, but why is there no one now?
Lu Qin couldn't find anyone, so he said: "Let's go to the lobby on the first floor to have a look, I think this thing is a bit bizarre, where have everyone gone?" β
Du Xinghe also felt so bizarre, so he asked Lu Qin: "Take the elevator down?" Or take the stairs? β
Lu Qin hesitated for a moment and said, "Take the elevator, it's too tiring to walk 10 floors." Although she usually works out and runs every day, she is not a person who can't climb the stairs, but because she was wearing stiff high-heeled sandals this night, it is difficult to take the stairs, so she decided to muster up the courage to take the elevator.
Du Xinghe took Lu Qin to the stairwell, pressed the elevator that stopped on the eighth floor, the two of them walked into the elevator, pressed the button in the lobby on the first floor, the door closed, and the elevator slowly went down, making a heavy mechanical sound, and a little creaky, as if it was going to break, and the quiet and high-speed operation just now felt completely different.
After feeling this difference, Du Xinghe suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the elevator, just now when he and Lu Qin came out of the Tang Dynasty banquet, the foreman manager sent them to the elevator all the time, and respectfully sent the two into the elevator, at that time there were still many people in the corridor. And after they got into the elevator, they didn't see anyone else, as if the elevator had brought them into another world.
The elevator creaked down, and Du Xinghe's thoughts were also running rapidly.
The more he thought about it, the more Du Xinghe felt that this time things might be a big deal, and after experiencing many movie incidents, Du Xinghe had a bad feeling, he felt that he might have entered a different world like "Silent Hill", and he might not be in the original world anymore.
Or, is this like the dream that Jiang Youli had not long ago when she was possessed by an old corpse in a mountain village, and he has entered a bizarre dream again?
The last time I had that dream of Jiang Youli being possessed, there was no sign at all before, he didn't know when he started to enter the dream, all the space and time are seamlessly connected with reality, he couldn't judge what was a dream and what was reality, so that when he woke up later, he felt that he was still in a multi-layered dream like "Inception", and he couldn't get out of it at all.
This is the case again.
If there was no one in the lobby on the first floor, then Du Xinghe could basically tell that he might have fallen into a strange dream again.
"Ding."
The elevator went to the first floor.
The door opened slowly.
A cold wind blew into the elevator and blew on Du Xinghe and Lu Qin's faces, but no sound came in, this silent feeling of being blown by the cold wind made Du Xinghe and Lu Qin shiver.
Lu Qin didn't hold Du Xinghe's hand in the elevator before, and then she nervously held Du Xinghe's hand again, Du Xinghe felt the heat transmitted by Lu Qin's soft little hand, and his mood calmed down a little, he let the brute force current in his body be at a very alert cycle speed, and the whole person was like a leopard with an arched back ready to attack at any time, and cautiously took Lu Qin out of the elevator.
Turn from the elevator hall to the lobby, and when you look out, the lobby of the entire Sihai Hotel is empty! In the middle of the lobby of the Four Seas Hotel hangs a certain giant Chinese retro carved wood thousand candle lamp, which is embedded with thousands of small light bulbs. After fully opened, the entire lobby will be illuminated with golden brilliance, which is particularly magnificent.
However, the huge carved wood candle light only lit less than one-tenth of the bulb, and many light bulbs turned on and off, which gave the hotel lobby an eerie light and shadow.
The lights on the wall behind the front desk are dim, but there are no staff at the front desk.
There was also no one in the guest lounge area across from the front desk.
Looking out from the glass wall and the revolving door, the street lights outside are on, and there is not a single car on the originally bustling street! Not a single one either!
All living things are like they've evaporated!
Lu Qin saw such a scene. In an instant, my legs were a little weak. Breathing was about to be suffocated, the hand holding Du Xinghe began to tremble faintly, her voice became a little trembling, and she asked Du Xinghe: "Is this ...... What the hell is going on? What about people?! β
Where did Du Xinghe answer Lu Qin's question? Because he himself couldn't figure out what was going on.
Ever since that exchange with the "Thunder Group" in my dream. Du Xinghe's worldview and even his outlook on the world have undergone great changes. There are many times. He couldn't figure out what was real and what was unreal.
Now that it was so, he felt that he might have entered a deep dream again. But the real touch around him, including Lu Qin's panicked eyes, was too realistic, and he couldn't believe that it was a dream.
But he had the dream experience of Jiang Youli's possession incident last time, and Du Xinghe couldn't convince himself that it was not a dream.
Whether it was a dream or not, he really couldn't tell.
Even if it was really a dream, he couldn't explain it clearly to Lu Qin.
So after hearing Lu Qin's panic question, he could only force himself to calmly tell Lu Qin: "Don't panic yet, I don't know what the hell is going on, let's go out of the hotel and take a look." β
"Well......" Lu Qin is a very smart person, but in the face of this bizarre event, she was a little panicked, and her brain entered a blank state of inability to think, she can only follow Du Xinghe now, and figure things out first before anything else.
Du Xinghe took Lu Qin out of the Four Seas Hotel.
It was a silent night outside.
Occasionally, the street lights illuminate the empty two-way four-lane road, which is particularly cold.
There wasn't a single car on the road, not a single person, not even a single mosquito under the streetlights.
In the various high-rise buildings on both sides of the road, there are windows with lights on, but most of them are dark, let alone people, not even ghosts.
The whole world seemed to have fallen asleep, and only Du Xinghe and Lu Qin were awake.
Lu Qin felt a little paralyzed, covering his small mouth with his hands, looking around with round eyes, trying to find a little anger, but except for the cold and lifeless buildings, there was no hope in the whole world.
"What happened in Chang'an? Is there a terror-terror-attack? Why are all the people gone? Lu Qin asked Du Xinghe in a voice that was almost crying. The qiΔ in front of her was too much for her to imagine, and she even suddenly had a hallucination, she turned into a small number of jΓΉ, and wandered into a huge computer system.
Seeing that there was no fatal danger around him, Du Xinghe slowed down the brute force in his body a little, and his spirit relaxed a little, and said to Lu Qin: "I don't know what happened, but I think this shouldn't be a terror-attack-attack, we may be brought into a new world by the elevator just now." β
"Huh?" Lu Qin was stunned when he heard this: "We were brought into a new world by the elevator we just took?" She was stunned by Du Xinghe's words, and her entire worldview felt impacted.
"I don't know, let's look into that elevator." Du Xinghe didn't explain much, pulled Lu Qin, and prepared to go back to the hotel to study the elevator. As far as he felt, he felt that he and Lu Qin were probably brought into a world like "Silent Hill" by that elevator.
Just when the two of them returned to the gate of the Sihai Hotel and were about to enter the door, Du Xinghe was alert to see a figure across the road from the glass reflection of the hotel door!
Thrilled!
Du Xinghe immediately turned his head to look, and saw a girl wearing a gray coat standing in the empty square across the road! (To be continued......)
