Chapter 16: Terror Corner

Murphy's Law was taken to the extreme on this night.

Although the voice-activated lights in the corridor are dim, it is better than no light, and when I turned two turns down the stairwell, I thought that I could take the elevator down to see the light again through the door of the safe passage, and found that the security door on the next floor was locked.

Further down, the security door is still locked.

Continue down to the last floor, where the security doors are locked.

The crack in the door of the security door looked dark, and no one responded to the knocking on the door.

Such a toss, in the summer, not to mention sweating, the mood is simply terrible.

At this time, the cocktail I drank at night came to my head, I was dizzy, and I was walking slowly.

It seems that Granny Meng is right, if you look at something you shouldn't see, it's bad luck.

The root of the bad luck is still the pair of wild mandarin ducks upstairs, and now we have to find them.

If you think about it, even if the man is King Kong, the battle should be over at this time. Take advantage of this time to go up to meet them, at least they have a mobile phone, and notifying the people outside to come to the rescue is the only way at the moment.

I don't feel tired when I go downstairs, but it's not easy to go upstairs, and when the wine comes up, it becomes more and more difficult to move.

The urgency in my heart is not proportional to my action, just like a snail moving upstairs, I can hear the sound of someone's footsteps, kicking all the way up.

Luo Qiao was happy in his heart, he finally had a living person, and it was better to have a companion than to wander around this corridor alone.

"Hey ......"

The echo of the voice in the hallway was quite loud, but no one spoke, and it was the sound of the running that answered her.

"Hey, sisters? Brothers? It's a person who squeaks. ”

Still no one sounded, but the footsteps stopped for two seconds, and two seconds later, the footsteps sounded again.

"Hey, can you get out of here?"

No one made a sound, and the footsteps stopped for another two seconds, and then they rang out again, and unlike before, the footsteps were getting closer and closer to themselves.

Turning the corner of the stairs, the man's rapid gasps could be heard, and Luo Qiao rejoiced in his heart that this nightmare was finally coming to an end.

However, the fright was still to come, and when the faint voice-activated lights came on again, a frighteningly white masked face appeared in front of Luo Qiao.

At the masquerade reception, Luo Qiao had seen many unusual outfits, but this was the first time he had seen this white mask face.

"Who are you? Do I know you? What department are you in? ”

This guy with a white mask and a black robe is not tall, thin and thin, and it is impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman.

This dress reminded Luo Qiao of the faceless man in "Spirited Away", and he was really startled to appear in the corridor at night.

The faceless man didn't answer, only glanced at Luo Qiao fixedly, and through the white mask, Luo Qiao could sense an indifferent face behind the mask.

The man glanced at Rojo twice, then turned and ran upstairs without hesitation, and he ran as fast as he could, disappearing into the corner of the stairs in an instant.

Luo Qiao was in a hurry.

"Hey, brother, wait for me."

The footsteps didn't stop, and they didn't get far from Luo Qiao, but they always kept a distance of three corners from Luo Qiao, and Luo Qiao had to follow behind.

In the meantime, Luo Qiao couldn't catch up, so he took a breath at the corner of the stairs, and at the corner of the third floor, the faceless man stopped with a white face, looked at Luo Qiao at the railing of the stairs, and waved at her.

It was this friendly beckoning that gave Luo Qiao hope in his heart again.

The stairwell rushed to the sound of footsteps, like a piano mix, and the sound of heartbeats pounded wildly on people's eardrums.

The footsteps in front disappeared on the 8th floor, and when Luo Qiao panted and reached the 8th floor and turned to the elevator door, the elevator door was still closed, and faintly, he saw a piece of the faceless man's clothes turned into the right aisle.

When Luo Qiao chased after him, there was no one in the right aisle, and through the window, he could see the brightly lit building on the right.

In a room on the 10th floor of the building, a couple did not draw the curtains, and a scene that was not suitable for children was being staged.

There are more than a dozen rooms on the left and right of the aisle, pushed one by one, all locked doors, and touching the dust in one hand, it should be that no one has patronized it for a long time.

The security door at the end of the aisle on the right was still locked, and the faceless man certainly couldn't have disappeared into thin air.

When he was thinking about what to do, a light appeared at the elevator door, as if someone had come in again, Luo Qiao was happy in his heart, and now it's okay.

"Hey, wait a minute."

A figure flickered by at the elevator door, and as the elevator closed, the figure quickly disappeared, only to hear the sound of footsteps in the left aisle, and gradually drifted away.

By the time Luo Qiao turned back to the elevator door, there was silence in the hallway, as if nothing had happened.

"Damn, could it be that the planning company is making a whole matching game?"

Well, regardless of whether it's a whole person matching game or not, the only way to do this is not to find any faceless men, let's go to the room at the end of the middle aisle to take a look, and that pair of wild mandarin ducks is the right way.

At the end of the hallway, the heavy wooden door was half-hidden, and there was silence inside.

"Is anyone there?"

No one responded, and after tripping over several cardboard boxes, I touched the corner of the wall, where there was still the breath of a person.

When he came out of the room, the elevator door on the other end of the hallway opened again, and a person sprang out of it very quickly.

"Hey ......"

Luo Qiao didn't have time to think about it, and ran over.

But the distance and speed could not keep up with the speed at which the elevator door closed, and the moment the elevator door closed, it was dim again, and the person's footsteps sounded in the aisle on the left.

"Hey, wait a minute."

I heard only the sound of the security door slamming, and then there was silence again.

This night, running around and tossing enough, Luo Qiao decided to wait for the rabbit, sitting at the elevator door and waiting for the rabbit to open the door.

Time passed minute by minute, and the aftermath of the cocktail made people drowsy.

I don't know how much time has passed, but I faintly heard a low and hoarse voice ringing in my ears.

"Hey, wake up."

He opened his eyes in a daze, and the faceless man's frightening face dangled in front of him.

He was shaking Rojo's shoulder.

"Get up, I'll take you out."

As he said this, he got up and walked down the left aisle.

Luo Qiao, who was still in a state of confusion, also stood up and followed behind the faceless man.

I don't know how many turns I made in the stairwell, and I don't know how many floors I went down.

Until there is no more to go down.

When the flashlight of the mobile phone in the faceless man's hand was turned on, Luo Qiao found that it was a cramped space, less than four square meters, and there were piles of cleaning debris.

The room had no windows, and a small locked door led to the outside, and the light was shining through the crack in the door, and the sound of traffic and people talking could be faintly heard outside.

This rusty lock can be smashed open by just taking something in the utility room.

Just as Luo Qiao was thinking about what kind of tool to smash the lock in the room, a cool smell came to his nose.

By the time she realized that it was a mint smell, it was too late.
