Chapter 229: You Look Down on Me?
Taking a deep breath, Tang Juyi shouted:
"Who's coming? Get your name in! β
There was no response, but a cold silence.
Taking a step back, Tang Juyi continued to shout:
"Outside the door! To the code! β
Tuk-tuk.
The knock sounded again, this time more urgently, as if the people outside the door were desperate to enter the room.
Well...... It doesn't have to be people, either.
Seeing that the other party didn't seem to have any intention of communicating with him, Tang Juyi looked around and began to conceive of the next plan of action:
"Trouble...... In the absence of uncertainty about the relationship between friend or foe on the outside, this choice is clearly a matter of life and death...... But the other party did not respond to my words, which means that there is a high probability that it will not be human...... At this time, if you open the door and it is a monkey with a blue face and fangs, a hairy face and a thunderous mouth, it will be very bad......"
The surrounding temperature is still dropping, and Tang Juyi understands that this is a significant manifestation of the development of the event entering a critical period, so the analysis is even more rapid:
"But if you don't open the door...... According to the 'run' in the log book, I might have encountered some horror too, or maybe the guy outside would break down the doorβ"
As soon as he thought of this, the door of the room shook violently, as if something had slammed it violently.
At the same time, a large amount of blood began to seep through the crack in the door, and the scarlet color revealed a pitch-black color, gradually staining the carpet of the doorway.
"This saves me the trouble of struggling......"
Looking at this signal that obviously represented "you will die when I come in", Tang Juyi immediately understood that the thing behind this door was not good, so the choice at this time was naturally only the last one - to find another way to escape.
Syllable!
The door shook again, and judging by the sound of the shaft being overwhelmed, it seemed that the door would not hold for long.
"Brother, wait a minute, I'll open the door for you in a while!"
shouted outside, Tang Juyi didn't care if it was useful or not, it wouldn't cost anything to try anyway.
There are no ventilation ducts or anything like that in this room, and the idea of smashing the wall to escape is not very practical, so there is only one option left for Tang Juyi at this time - jumping out of the window.
Running to the window, Tang Juyi pushed the window open, and then looked out, and found that the height of this room was not high, and it was about five or six meters from the ground outside.
"What, this mission is going to test my parkour ability?"
Tang Juyi muttered, listened to the wind outside the window, stepped half of his foot on the window frame, and the whole person straddled the windowsill, only need to jump hard, you can jump down and leave this terrifying room.
Bang!
This time, the door of the room was not able to withstand the impact, and the door shaft was torn, and the entire door panel smashed to the ground, making a loud noise.
From outside the door poured in a violent stench, and there was a figure whose face could not be seen clearly. The lights in the room began to flicker wildly, as if the circuit had been disturbed by some kind of inexplicable interference, causing the light in the room to start flickering on and off.
With the arrival of this figure, an indescribable darkness began to envelop the room, obscuring all the original warm light, and only the faint moonlight outside entered the room, reflecting on the figure's body.
It seems that this uninvited guest is very angry at Tang Juyi's refusal to open the door, so he plans to come in and reason with him.
The figure, covered in a blur of darkness, was so tall that it had to bend down to squeeze into the room. When it stands upright, its tall body can even lift its head to the ceiling.
It just faced Tang Juyi, and then walked towards him step by step.
With each step of the inhuman figure, its footprints left a black, viscous trail on the floor of the room, like a strange substance mixed with melted black asphalt, giving off a foul and pungent smell.
Tang Juyi stared at the terrifying figure, but the body that was about to jump up suddenly stopped, and instead showed a weird smile:
"Why, you'd love to see me jump, right?"
The figure paused for a moment, and then stopped three meters in front of Tang Juyi, tilting his head to look at him, as if he didn't understand why this human reacted like this.
Tang Juyi glanced out the window behind him and said:
"If I'm guessing correctly, I'm really going to die if I jump like this...... How tall is here? You have to have at least 30 meters to start, right? β
With a slight sigh of regret, Tang Juyi withdrew his legs that straddled the window, and then stood in the room again, standing against the terrifying creature in front of him:
"It's hard, man. I was going to be a little more flustered and give you a little respect, but I noticed that you didn't seem to respect my IQ a bit. β
After moving half a step sideways, Tang Juyi looked at the door that had been knocked open in this room, and said thoughtfully:
"The last time I entered this room, I remember very well where the door was locked. As it had been before, the door was unlocked. But, as an able-bodied person with hands and feet β well, whatever you are, you didn't choose to twist the doorknob, but to break down the door in the most efficient, brutal, but psychological stress that was the most effective. β
Ignoring the tall humanoid creature, Tang Juyi walked slowly to the side of the sofa and sat down comfortably:
"This can be regarded as your lack of IQ balance and your ability to use the mechanical objects of modern society, but your next actions are really a bit contemptuous of people."
Picking up his fingers, Tang Juyi counted them one by one:
"I think about it...... The way I broke the door in a frenzy, the blood that poured into the crack in the door, and the unhurried movement speed even after successfully hitting the door were all like I wanted to seize the opportunity to run away...... Ah, by the way, and this window, the sound of air outside is not supposed to be at the level of a two-story building. β
Then, Tang Juyi, who was lying comfortably on the sofa, even crossed Erlang's legs and looked at this creature that was not easy to describe with interest:
"So, when I sat at the window, I hesitated for a moment, and began to think seriously about this possibility - your existence is not to kill me directly, but to induce me to die in a way that buries psychological cues, exerts psychological guidance, and increases the pressure of the atmosphere."
"If I'm rightβ"
Tang Juyi stood up, regarded this humanoid creature as nothing, and walked directly to the door of the room that had been knocked open.
"The message of the fast run is true, but it doesn't make me run out the window. Your presence seized the crucial moment when I was about to open the door, trying to create a preconceived hint, but it proved the right way to escape - ignoring all the horrors in sight and going straight to the exit of the room. β
"And that's what it means by 'welcome.'"
