Since it was a Saturday, there were many fewer office workers in the Wenloe Building than usual.

At this time, these office workers who work overtime on weekends are leaving the building in a hurry, as for the reason...... Just look up and see.

From the windows on the seventeenth floor of the building, billowing smoke obscured the sky, and even workaholics did not dare to continue working in the event of a fire in the building.

However, at this time, two people tried to rush into the burning building.

"Get out of the way." Zhao Nuo said to the security guard who was blocking in front of him.

Although he knew that the other party was well-intentioned, but now in this situation, Zhao Nuo didn't have time to explain to him anymore.

glanced at Xia Xiaoling next to her, but the girl who was naturally stupid quickly understood today, and the two of them suddenly accelerated left and right, and rushed into the building. Ignoring the dissuasive voices of the security guards behind him, he quickly ran through the hall to the left side of the hallway.

At the time of the fire, the elevator is obviously not usable, and the central fireproof staircase, there are currently many people going down, so it is better to go up the stairs from both sides.

As for the body lì aspect...... For Zhao Nuo and Xia Xiaoling, it is not a problem at all.

When he was very young, Zhao Nuo's family lived on the top floor, the seventh floor. Of course, there is no elevator installed in the old family building, and every day after school, in order to rush home as much as possible, and play games after finishing his homework, he takes three steps and does two steps along the way! Rush home.

In the long run, climbing the stairs or something is not a problem for him at all, and now it is not trivial to rush all the way to the twentieth floor. But......

"Do you feel it?"

Coming to the fifteenth floor non-stop, Zhao Nuo stretched out his hand to stop in front of Xia Xiaoling and signaled her to stop.

"What's wrong...... Well, it's hot. Xia Xiaoling's eyebrows frowned rarely.

Before reaching the seventeenth floor where the fire broke out, you could feel the abnormal heat, and you can imagine what the fire on the upper floor had reached.

"What should I do?" Xia Xiaoling asked.

"I'll go up myself. You hold my stuff. Zhao Nuo said and stuffed all the wallets and mobile phones in his pockets into Xia Xiaoling's hands.

"Why?" Xia Xiaoling was still a little puzzled.

"You can keep my things for me, it won't be good if it burns out."

Zhao Nuo said and pointed to the white scarf that was similar to the color of the clothes next to Xia Xiaoling's collar: "Can you lend me the scarf?" ”

"Uh, okay." Xia Xiaoling took off her scarf and handed it to Zhao Nuo without saying a word.

The scarf in his hand had a faint smell of shampoo, but Zhao Nuo didn't have time to care about this kind of problem at this time. motioned for Xia Xiaoling to wait in place, and walked quickly into the toilet next to her.

He turned on the faucet, put the scarf under the faucet and soaked it thoroughly, then covered his face and tied a knot at the back of his neck.

"Okay, wait for me here."

After making a muffled sound from under the soaked scarf, Zhao Nuo cautiously continued to move forward.

Even if there was no fire on the twentieth floor where the company was located, he knew very well that the people who died in the fire. There were many who were not burned, but smoked.

Now that I have a soaked scarf, I can say that I have primary protection and will not directly inhale high-temperature smoke.

As for advanced protection, you should be able to find it in the office.

――Some of the game merchandise I bought online last time I haven't had time to take home, and they're still piled up in the corner of the office, if I'm not mistaken. "That thing" should be among them.

As long as you have that thing, this level of soot. It's definitely not a problem at all!

Therefore, the top priority now is to hurry to the twentieth floor.

The sixteenth floor looks no different from normal except for no one. But whether it's the sudden increase in air temperature, or the crackling overhead and the whimpering "whirring" sound, it is a terrible fact. A fire is burning on the upper floor.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Nuo slowly stepped up the stairs and finally came to the seventeenth floor.

"Bang!"

As soon as he reached the seventeenth floor, he saw a wooden door in the corridor, as if he had been kicked by someone. It slammed into the wall. Then a spewed out of the tyrannical tongue of fire, licking the ceiling of the hallway.

Pitch-black smoke filled the air, mixed with red and yellow tongues of blazing fire.

The temperature below is nothing compared to this place, and this place is a truly terrifying burning hell!

"Damn, is the fire extinguishing device broken......" Zhao Nuo muttered in a low voice.

The small sprinkler head installed on the ceiling of the hallway was supposed to spray water as soon as it detected the flames, but at this point the thing was not working, allowing the fire to rage throughout the level.

Luckily, the smoke didn't seem to spread to the upper floors because the door to the safe passage was closed, so what I had to do next was much easier.

Lowering his body to avoid the hot smoke that filled the corridor, Zhao Nuo came to the iron door hidden at the staircase as fast as he could, opened the door and rushed in, and then immediately closed the door to keep the smoke out of the corridor.

"Well, that's a lot easier."

Quickly came to the twentieth floor, Zhao Nuo took out all the office keys he asked for from Xia Xiaoling, first opened the door of the program team's office, and put the mobile hard disk that the programmers called the "treasure trove" into his coat pocket.

Then, he went to the office of the planning team, turned off the server test program that was still running, and turned off the computer by the way.

Although this place has not yet been affected by the fire, Zhao Nuo knew that it was better to leave quickly. Before leaving, he turned on the faucet of the bathroom washbasin to the maximum and closed the lid underneath.

Looking at the rapidly rising water level in the pool, Zhao Nuo nodded with satisfaction. Then he moved over the red bucket next to him to block the drain on the floor.

As a result, the water in the washbasin will overflow and flow into the hallway. Although it doesn't feel very useful, it can also be used to curb it to a certain extent when there is a fire.

So now all to do is leave...... Wait a minute.

Thinking of the "thing" he had planned to take before, Zhao Nuo immediately walked into his office.

Standing in front of the window and before I could look out, I heard a shrill siren from downstairs, apparently the fire brigade had arrived. But Zhao Nuo didn't mean to look down at all, but picked up the paper bag placed in the corner of the wall, fumbled in it for a while, and took out a pitch-black "pig's head" type object.

"Haha, give me a hand, Hunk."

What he holds in his hand is the signature gas mask of Hunk, the mysterious character in the Resident Evil game!

Since I bought the most advanced model, this gas mask is not the kind of toy that can only be used for cosplay, but it really has a filtering effect.

Like the binocular night vision devices that came in handy in the fight against murderers, the game peripherals that I purchased have once again become life-saving "saviors"!

As long as you bring this thing, even if it is the thick smoke of the seventeenth layer, you probably won't be able to do any harm to yourself!

Taking off the wet scarf covering his face and putting it on his shoulder, Zhao Nuo put the black gas mask on his face with ease, and after making sure that his breathing was fine, he walked down the stairs quickly.

Opening the door of the seventeenth floor, a hot wind suddenly whistled, making him feel like "wearing clothes and taking a sauna".

The temperature here feels even higher than it was before, and the fire is obviously bigger.

-- Let's go.

Just as he was about to go downstairs, a frightened female voice came from not far away, but he couldn't help but stop:

"Help! Help me! ”

"Is anyone over there?" Zhao Nuo shouted loudly. (To be continued......) R1292
