Chapter 356: Work Schedule
Originally, I was still asking Xiao Chen a question, but who knew that he suddenly shouted in such a frightened way, which immediately made me feel that the hairs on my whole body stood up, and I hurriedly rushed towards the archive room with Lin Yingxue, wanting to see what Xiao Chen saw!
When we rushed out of the archives, we found that Xiao Chen had fallen to the ground in fright, his eyes staring in horror in the direction of the stairs in front of him, one hand trembling and pointing ahead, his mouth kept open but he couldn't speak excitedly.
"What's going on? What exactly do you see? Lin Yingxue stood in front of us with a dagger, and I helped Xiao Chen up and hurriedly asked him.
Perhaps it was our arrival that calmed Xiao Chen's heart a little, he first looked up at us, and then he told us what had just happened.
At that time, we were looking for Director Zhao's file inside, and Xiao Chen was standing at the door staring at the dark corridor at the other end of the staircase in front of him, after all, this was something we arranged for him, and he also wanted to contribute to this crisis, so he had been staring at the depths of the corridor dutifully, not daring to slack off at all.
Around the time just now, Xiao Chen vaguely heard a faint strange smile coming from the dark corridor in front of him, at first he thought it was his auditory hallucination, and didn't pay much attention to it, but then he heard the laughter again, which couldn't help but make him nervous.
You know, we came from that side just now, and when we came over, there was no one over there except for a dead man, Xiao Wei, and there was laughter over there, so it was definitely an extremely terrifying thing!
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen mustered up his courage and used the flashlight in his hand to shine into the dark corridor in front of him, and the moment the light entered the corridor, Xiao Chen saw a person dressed in black and wearing a demon mask standing at the edge of the corridor, motionless in front of him and giving a low and weird smile!
Immediately after that, Xiao Chen was frightened, and immediately threw away the flashlight in his hand and shouted, and then we rushed to hear the news.
Hearing Xiao Chen's dictation, I was shocked! The man wearing the demon mask, the one who controlled *, was actually in that corridor just now! And we didn't even find out! If he had attacked us just now, I'm afraid it's a question of whether we can still stand here now!
Of course, there is still something worth thinking about in this matter, but this reflection is only quietly carried out in my heart, and I have not made it public.
"Is the man in the demon mask still in the hallway?" Lin Yingxue asked Xiao Chen as she was about to take the dagger to find the person wearing the demon mask.
I hurriedly stopped Lin Yingxue, while Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "No, he ran out and downstairs when I shouted." ”
I looked at the staircase, and then said, "Don't chase it, this man in the demon mask is very insidious, who knows what kind of trap he has prepared for us to send to the door himself, we ignore him and continue to walk upstairs!" I'm going to see what he's trying to do! ”
Although Lin Yingxue was a little unwilling, she still obeyed my arrangement and followed me with Xiao Chen to continue walking up the stairs.
During this period, I inquired about Xiao Chen's remaining floor divisions, and from Xiao Chen's answer, I understood that there was nothing on the remaining floors except for the tenth floor and the president's office on the top floor that was worthy of our continued search, so we decided to go to the tenth floor to check it out! Anyway, the man in the demon mask had already walked downstairs, so we weren't worried about running into him on the tenth floor.
We quickly ran upstairs, during which I didn't stop at other floors to check, but I still took a look when I passed by, and I didn't find anyone on other floors, Bai Longfei, the office director and the rest of the security guards, as if they had evaporated from the world, as if they had never appeared in the newspaper building.
Finally, the three of us finally came to the tenth floor, and we didn't encounter any traps or anything like that along the way, but at the staircase on the eighth floor, we found a red-glowing *, and I don't know what the person wearing the demon mask was doing in that place*.
After coming to the tenth floor, I turned my head to the two behind me and said: "Now focus on checking the office director's room, and the other three deceased's offices must also be carefully checked, there are only more than twenty minutes left, the three of us will act separately, give me all the useful information to the office director's room, I want to analyze who the real murderer of Director Zhao is in the shortest possible time!" ”
Lin Yingxue and Xiao Chen nodded at the same time, and then we walked towards the side of the corridor, that is, the side where the office director, Ma Jie and Zhou Jingyi were located, I came to the door of the office director's room, pushed the door open, and was ready to go in and check quickly, but the moment I pushed the door open, I vaguely saw a dark shadow standing at the door of the office in the room, completely blocking my way!
The moment I found the black shadow, I didn't have time to see who it was, and my heartbeat instantly accelerated several times! It was as if standing in front of me at this time was a real god of death!
I always believed that human beings have a sixth sense, and when I didn't see everything in front of me clearly, I instinctively rushed behind me, and the whole person rose into the air, and finally fell the ground a meter behind me.
However, as I threw myself behind me, I heard a loud bang in the doorway where I had just stood, and the whole ground trembled slightly!
I fell to the ground, I didn't care about the pain, and immediately got up and ran away, but as soon as I got up, I saw a figure quickly rushing from a distance, rushing towards the black shadow standing at the door, and then from the door came a series of teeth-inducing bones rubbing sounds, and then a very familiar scream came almost at the same time!
At this time, I basically understood what was going on, and immediately picked up the flashlight in my hand and shone it at the door of the office in front of me, and saw Lin Yingxue standing at the door of the office with a cold face at this time, and at her feet, the office director who had parted ways with us before fell to the ground and covered his arms and howled desperately!
There are a lot of blood stains on the office director's body, but there are no obvious scars on his body, this blood stain must not be his own, and there is a bloody axe on the ground next to him, it seems that he must have used this thing to kill me just now, fortunately I reacted in time to avoid a catastrophe, otherwise this axe will hit my head, and it is estimated that my whole person can be split into two parts.
The office director's hand seemed to have been broken by Lin Yingxue, and the whole arm showed an extremely distorted posture, looking at it even I felt a little painful, no wonder this fierce office director would be in pain like this.
"Are you alright?" After subduing the office director, Lin Yingxue anxiously came over to check if there were any injuries on my body, I smiled and said, "It's okay, it's good that you came over in time, otherwise I would have been hanging." ”
While talking, Lin Yingxue and I have already begun to walk towards the office director's room, because we have already guessed what is going on inside, and sure enough, after we entered, we found that the room was full of blood stains at this time, and the last security guard who left with the office director before was lying in a pool of blood at this time, and the whole head was split into two ends from the middle, and bright red blood kept coming out of it. I didn't expect this office director to be such a ruthless person!
Xiao Chen also heard the movement and rushed over, and after he saw the body of another security guard, the whole person became extremely angry, grabbed the office director's collar, and asked him why he did this.
The office director didn't know what was going on at this time, and suddenly he looked up to the sky and laughed like crazy, no matter how Xiao Chen pulled him, he didn't care, and he didn't even feel the pain in his twisted arm at all.
I sighed slightly, pulled Xiao Chen away, and then stared at the office director and asked, "Tell me, how did Director Zhao die?" Did you kill it? ”
The chief of staff laughed and muttered, "All of them are going to die!" Hahaha! No one can escape, all of you will die! ”
Looking at the state of the office director in front of me, I knew that I would never be able to get any clues from him before one o'clock, so I asked Xiao Chen and Lin Yingxue to get him away first, and then a few of us hurriedly searched the offices in charge to find clues that could help us investigate the truth of Director Zhao's death.
Lin Yingxue and Xiao Chen quickly carried the office director out, and in order not to be disturbed by the office director's laughter, I closed the office door, and then quickly rummaged through the room to find what I needed.
Since the new office director has been in office for a month, there is almost nothing about Director Zhao here, I threw all the drawers and bookshelves on the ground and rummaged frantically, and finally let me find something similar to the work schedule in a hidden drawer, with Director Zhao's name written on it, it seems that this thing should be Director Zhao's.
But just as I was about to open the work schedule to check, I suddenly noticed a problem, that is, the crazy laughter of the director of the outside office seemed to have stopped!
It's a good thing for me that the chief of staff stopped laughing, but I always felt that it happened too suddenly, right? So I walked out of the office with questions to see what was going on outside.
When I walked out of the office, by the light of the flashlight, I saw that in the dark corridor, the office director who was dragged out by Lin Yingxue and Xiao Chen was lying motionless on the ground, as if he had fainted, and Lin Yingxue and Xiao Chen were completely missing!
