Chapter 3 Games
The ice on the screen was only halfway diffused before melting, and the ice on the floor had stopped spreading, but the air around me still made my hairs stand on end.
"So don't let your attention go, he's likely to take on the form of your friend."
I nodded, "Let's go upstairs first, and tell them to be vigilant at all times."
I don't know if it's my delusion or the effect of Ren Wei's ability lasts too long, I always feel cold all over, and my arms and legs are still shaking uncontrollably. I'm worried that "Gui" will come to us for trouble, and if it does, how will we deal with it?
When I walked to the landing between the first and second floors, I looked at the gate again, and it didn't matter, but something was wrong when I saw it. The upper part of the gate is made of transparent glass, and you can clearly see the situation outside, and at this time, there is a black shadow attached to the glass, and you can faintly see the black shadow with a pair of smiling eyes and a mouth with teeth.
"Miss Ren Wei, look at the gate!"
Ren Wei had already stepped up a step on the platform, and when she heard my voice, she turned back, and she also glanced in the direction of the gate, but at this time the black shadow had disappeared.
"What do you want me to see? What happened to the gate? ”
"A dark shadow, like a person, don't you see?"
"No, it's because you're too nervous and delusional," she smiled helplessly and continued to walk up.
I rubbed my eyes and looked at the door again, there was really nothing outside the door, and it seemed that what my eyes saw was not necessarily the real thing, maybe it was really me who was too nervous to see the wrong thing.
When I got up to the second floor, I hurried to the room where they were, "Hey, you two, I have something to tell you!" "But when I opened the door, they weren't there, and I didn't dare to delay any longer, so I went out of the room and went to the other rooms to find someone.
"It's really strange, looking for the switch and the person is gone, let's go downstairs and have a look" The drill bit and Ah Jue were about to go downstairs as they spoke, I was also in a hurry, and I didn't care if I was cautious or not, so I opened my voice and shouted: "Wait, we are here!" ”
Only then did the two of them notice us, and Ah Jue took a large exaggerated breath and exhaled again. "Where did you just go? We're looking for you everywhere! ”
"We went to the first floor and said something, let's go to the room and talk"
I cautiously closed the door, listened to the sounds outside, and made sure there was no movement outside before I spoke.
"You still remember what I wanted to tell you, I didn't have time to explain it before, and now I don't think it can be explained too clearly, so you just listen to it."
"There is a person who is stranger than '癸' found me through a special way and asked me to investigate the person '癸', I want to ask you to help me investigate the person '癸', after all... As you know, I'm not very good at socializing, and I'm sorry to get you into trouble."
"Don't say that, it's all buddies, what's sorry or not, don't you know a little new things and increase your knowledge?" Ah Jue began his heartless giggle again.
"Thank you," I felt a slight sour on the tip of my nose, and I quickly adjusted my mind and continued. "Originally, I thought that it might take a lot of work to find 'Gui', but who knew that I inadvertently opened the passage between the real world and the world in the book, and 'Gui' directly bumped into me"
"It's a coincidence, or we'll have to gather information like detectives," Ah Jue even whistled, not feeling any uneasiness at all.
"Speaking of intelligence, Miss Ren Mo really has some of the information of 'Huang', we have to beware of his ability, that guy can become anyone's appearance"
"You're saying he might become one of us? That's dangerous," the drill finally said.
"But we also have to avoid the estrangement that this creates, so that he can't take advantage of it," I added, patting the drill bit that was still frowning.
"Look, is the light on the outside a car headlight?" Ren Mo pointed in the direction of the window, because of the "decay", as long as there was a bright light of suspected car lights outside, it made us nervous.
We looked down through the glass, and sure enough, there was a red car hovering near the store, and the guy pulled over to the side, opened the trunk, took a hammer-like thing, and walked in the direction of the store.
"Oh no, that guy found out!" Ren grabbed my wrist and ran out.
"I can't let him find out about you, I can still deal with him, your ability hasn't awakened yet, your friend is even more incapable, that guy has destroyed a lot of places before you came here, he can do whatever it takes to achieve his goal!"
"Where are we going?" The nerves in my head tightened, and all I could hear was the sound of us stepping on the wooden floor and the sound of rapid breathing.
"There's a basement on the first floor, and he won't find out if a bunch of debris usually blocks the fire door leading to the basement."
As we expected, "But" was violently breaking down the door with an axe, and the sound of the axe smashing the door with an axe made us feel creepy, and if the axe slashed at us, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Maybe the guy was too focused on slashing the door and didn't notice our footsteps inside, so we managed to run to the fire door.
"Where are you talking about the basement?" I stared at the mess in a daze.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, I don't usually tidy up these things" Ren Mo touched the back of his head.
She removed the clutter that had been thrown on the floor and approached the cupboard against the wall. "You guys help me move it together, there is the basement in the back, there is not much on this cupboard, four people together is enough to move it"
"Okay, then let's hurry up, we have to get ahead of that guy!"
The four of us each pulled the corner of the cabinet and pressed in one direction. "One, two, three!" The cabinet swayed and moved a little, "Come again!" One, two, three! "We had another wave, and we repeated it five or six times before we moved the cabinets.
Ren Mo opened the fire door, and the dusty staircase indicated that no one had been here for a long time, and there was a high probability that we would not be found when we hid here.
"Click, click, click" I still heard the sound of "Click" smashing the door with an axe, and the dark shadow I saw when I went upstairs was really not an illusion, he already knew that we were here, but why did it take so long to decide to break down the door violently? What is he waiting for?
I seemed to see the wooden door he had chopped down at his feet, and he was grinning with an axe in one hand, showing his wolf-sharp teeth, and laughing maniacally as he searched for "prey".
"No, no, why, why do I have to meet this kind of thing!"
"I want to escape, but I can't leave them, I can't hide anymore!"
"Why do you say 'again'? What did I do? No, I don't know anything! ”
I held my head tightly, my brain seemed to let the fishing lines be tightened to the tightest degree, deeply embedded in the flesh, oozing bright red blood, but the fishing lines were still strangling me all the time, no, my brain was about to crack!
"Whew, whew, whew" I gulped in the air and inhaled it into my lungs along with the dust that was drifting.
Suddenly, a voice burst into my consciousness. "Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?"
"He, what's going on with him? It seemed to be in pain, and we couldn't respond to any of our calls."
"I don't know, Brother Bai said that he will have this situation from time to time"
"Have you ever been to the hospital?"
"I don't know, there are many neurological-related symptoms that can't be detected by the hospital."
"Xiaobai, Xiaobai, be sober! We'll be safe in no time! ”
I was in a trance and couldn't tell who was talking, I just felt so annoying, so annoying, my head was about to explode! I beg you, I beg you!
"Say no more!" I shouted out in a moment's gaffe.
The scene in front of me became clear, and I saw myself kneeling on the floor, supporting my body with my hands, and there were big drops of sweat on the floor.
"What just happened?" I collapsed completely.
"Xiaobai, are you awake? Great, I thought you..." Caught off guard, I lunged at me, pressing my shoulder and a hand.
"Wait, don't be impulsive! I can't beat you! "The hand I was holding tried to break free, but Jue's strength was much greater than mine.
"What am I hitting you for? I thought something had happened to you, it scared me to death! ”
"I'm fine, sorry to worry you" I turned my head, not wanting to look at him.
"Ahem, huh!" The drill coughed deliberately.
"Ah yes, we're trying to avoid 'Gui', right, Ren Hui" I looked at Ren Mo embarrassedly, only she didn't have any expression fluctuations.
"Click!" There was a loud bang, like the sound of a piece of wood being smashed, accompanied by the sound of machinery running.
"Could it be that he changed the chainsaw again? Hurry up, there's no time, you guys go in quickly, I'll restore the cupboard back to its original state so he won't notice! I'll get you out when he's gone!" Ren said as he pushed us through the door.
"But what do you do? Who knows what that guy will do! I slammed the door and stammered with her.
"Hurry, the door won't hold up! I'm fine! There's also a hidden place upstairs that he wouldn't have thought of! She pulled away my hand holding the door, her eyebrows twisted into a mess.
"Go down! Fast! Now, she closed the fire door completely.
"Okay, now it's safe"
Ren Mo opened her hand, her fingers pointed to a point of nothingness, and soon, countless transparent thin lines appeared around her fingers, and the temperature around her dropped with the appearance of the thin lines, and when they reached the freezing point, those almost transparent thin lines began to materialize, one end of the thin lines connected Ren Wei's hand, and the other end was connected against the wall of the cabinet, and the dense thin wires wrapped around the cabinet in the middle.
I saw Ren Wei's hand back to grip, and a mist of flowing gas appeared in the connected thin wire, and with the flow of gas, the thin line became tighter and tighter, and the cabinet wrapped by the thin wire was dragged to the front of the fire door.
The problem in the basement was solved, but the sound of chainsaws outside the door was still ringing.
When they arrived at the door, the gate had been cut and deformed, and a large hole appeared in the door, and the movement of the chainsaw and the scattered sawdust could be seen.
"While it's still too late, the oxygen in that place is still enough for about five minutes, so it's a gamble, if it really doesn't work, you can only fight with him!"
"Nothing can happen to him!"
Ren Mo ran all the way into the innermost room in the corridor on the second floor, which was a small storage room on the surface, but she was the only one who knew that there was a dark compartment under the floor of this room, which was just enough to hide, but the air was thin due to the small space, and she didn't know how long it could last.
"Gui" nineteen eighty-nine has already determined that Pu Shaohan and his friends are hiding in their own shop, in case they are found to be forced to move with him, the ability of the "black shadow clone" can be turned on when the body cannot be withdrawn, and the clone can pass through obstacles, whether it is Ren Wei or Pu Shaohan and his friends, it is a big trouble.
It's just that what puzzles her is that the "black shadow clone" can obviously spy on intelligence and launch a sneak attack without alerting the people in the store, so why make such a big move to break down the door with an axe and chainsaw? It is really suspicious to go to such great lengths to expose his purpose.
She removed the box that lay on the floor and pried open one of the unerased floors, revealing a handle underneath that connected to the adjacent floor. With the lifting of the handle, the two connected floors were lifted, revealing a hidden lattice for mounting a retractable ladder.
Feeling uneasy, she ran outside the room to check on the situation, and when she was a few steps away from the staircase, she heard a loud muffled noise, accompanied by the sound of glass breaking.
"It's over, the door has been removed, hurry up and run!"
Ren Mo knew that the "black shadow" that Pu Shaohan said on the platform between the first and second floors was not his delusion, but the "black shadow clone" of "Gui", and what he told him would only cause unnecessary panic.
Since Pu Shaohan saw the "black shadow clone", the "black shadow clone" is also very likely to see Pu Shaohan, and when the "Huang" successfully breaks the door, he will definitely go directly to the second floor to find someone.
She ran to the utility room as fast as she could, and went into the dark compartment to restore the floor to its original state before going down the retractable ladder.
It was still pitch black under the dark lattice, and she groped for the walls on either side, bending over, her feet touching the edges of the ladder to see if she had stepped on the steps. She remembers that there were five steps in the telescopic ladder, and three steps had been walked so far, and there were two left.
She is not afraid of "Gui", she has fought with "Gui" several times before, and she has already made full psychological preparations, but now he is just making trouble again, and a person who can only turn on the attack ability in an environment with water is not afraid at all.
That being said, but this time there were three more people, one of whom was the creator of this world, and she met such a defenseless and very critical person, which made her heart panic a little.
"Calm down, you must be calm, they will be fine" Ren Mo smoothed his chest and forcibly controlled his emotions.
After groping again, a pair of feet landed on the familiar ground. She rubbed her aching back, walked to the corner and squatted down, holding her breath as a dangerous "game of hide and seek" began.
"Gui" broke into the door, as Ren Wei expected before, he observed the situation in the store through the "black shadow clone", and knew that Pu Shaohan and the others were hiding on the second floor, and his high confidence in his ability caused him not to suspect that someone might be hiding on the first floor, only to see him run up to the second floor in three steps and two steps, carrying a chainsaw stained with sawdust in his right hand, and licking the wound on his left arm that was cut by the broken glass.
Ren Mo hid in the dark compartment, couldn't see anything, couldn't hear anything, this was too abnormal, it was really quiet, that frenzied villain would definitely wantonly destroy the facilities in the store to vent his anger if he couldn't find anyone, but she didn't hear anything, or couldn't hear the sound because she stayed in the dark compartment? The sound insulation of the dark grid is still good.
Going out? Ren Mo shook his head to himself, and quickly threw out this thought. What if that guy isn't as reckless as he thinks? In case that guy is just "fishing", he is the fisherman, and he is the fish that bites the hook.
"Boom!" It appears to be the muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and the place where the sound came from was about not far from the utility room where the dark compartment was.
"癸" seemed to affirm Ren Wei's judgment, urgently proving his sense of existence, the second sound, the third sound, I don't know from which rooms, which positions sounded one after another.
"Boom!" "Bang!" All kinds of sounds seem to form a band with no one playing, and the frightened "game of hide and seek" adds to the joyful atmosphere because of these continuous sounds.
Hearing these voices, Ren Mo relaxed a lot, it seems that he has looked up to the person "癸", the current actions he made are still expected, according to the current situation, he is very likely to be angry and ignore the details that are not easy to detect, so it is best, but if not?
The sound sounded suddenly, not when it started on the second floor, and as in the case of the door, there was a time gap between the discovery of someone inside and the violent breaking of the door, as if "Gui" was preparing something during this interval.
Ren rubbed the corners of her clothes, praying that things would go her way, and that if they could win the "game of hide and seek", at least they would be safe tonight.
But the sound of smashing things abruptly stopped, and was replaced by the sound of footsteps.
