Chapter 351: The Morgue
I didn't have time to explain to him that I didn't have that kind of relationship with Yu Jie, and as time passed, I pleaded: "Master, you can take us there, you can leave after you take us there, and it will be fine." ”
The driver was still a little hesitant, but I licked my face and said a lot of good things, and repeatedly promised that it would be fine, and after giving him more fare, he reluctantly agreed.
Taxis drove to their destinations, and the number of houses in the surrounding area gradually decreased, until there were no high-rise buildings at all.
I looked at the wasteland on both sides of the car, and I didn't know what it was like, with the fear of the unknown and the joy of meeting Charlene.
What made me feel strange was that Yu Jie, who was sitting next to her, also looked nervous, she changed her sitting posture from time to time, and kept taking deep breaths.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked out loud as she looked restless.
She seemed to sense that her nervous mood was leaking, and instantly regained her calm appearance, and said lightly: "I'm fine." ”
Seeing that she didn't mean anything to tell me, I didn't ask any more questions, and put my mind back on how to rescue Charlene later.
In the rest of the journey, no one spoke again, and Yu Jie also put away her nervous and uneasy look, and kept looking out the window, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Here we are." The driver in front said, and the car slowly stopped.
I looked out the window and saw a large expanse of abandoned houses outside, which had been crumbling for years as if they were going to collapse in a gust of wind.
Yu Jie and I looked at each other, and after paying the fare, we got off the bus, and as soon as the two of us stood firm, the taxi parked next to us turned around and drove back in an instant, as if it would be eaten by a monster later.
It was already a little dark, and the surroundings looked dark and gloomy, so I took out my phone, clicked on the text message, wrote down the address on it, and then turned on my own flashlight to shine on the road.
Yu Jie followed me, and we walked forward together, probably because no one came here all year round, and the ground was overgrown with weeds, and the original road could no longer be seen.
Yu Jie and I approached the house over there, and used our mobile phones to shine on the door number on it, the handwriting was already very blurry, and it took a long time to identify how many numbers it was, and after seeing it clearly, I found that it was still a lot worse than the location mentioned in the text message.
After walking a little further, I looked at the door number again, and found that the address mentioned in the text message was on the other side, and I pulled Yu Jie to go in the other direction.
After walking about five or six hundred meters, I felt that I should be about the same, so I stopped.
At this time, we were in front of a large house, which did not look like an ordinary residential house, but more like a hospital or an office building.
Yu Jie and I walked to the gate, looked for the light of the mobile phone to identify it, and found that this was the address mentioned on the text message.
I took a step and walked in, the light of my phone was not weak, and I could clearly see the furnishings and directions inside.
It was empty, the walls were plastered, the windows and doors were tattered, and the wind was blowing in from the windows.
"It's an abandoned hospital." Yu Jie suddenly spoke.
"Huh?" I didn't react to it.
She glanced at me, then pointed to a sign on the wall directly in front of her and said, "Look at that." ”
I looked in the direction of her finger and saw that the iron sign said "Outpatient Department".
Only then did I understand what Yu Jie meant by what she just said, only hospitals have outpatient clinics, I looked around again, and unexpectedly saw the billing office, the medicine room, and the ward.
It seems that this place was indeed a hospital before, and as for why it was abandoned like this, I don't have any interest, I just want to know who sent that text message to me, and whether Charlene is here.
I picked up my phone and was about to reply to the anonymous text message to tell him that I had arrived, and as soon as I clicked on it, it vibrated a little.
Another message came from this number.
"Come to the fifth floor."
I saw this message and immediately subconsciously looked around, and found that there was no one, Yu Jie saw my reaction, and also poked her head to look at my mobile phone.
"Looks like we've been under their control since we stepped into this place." Yu Jie said.
I nodded, not denying it, since Charlene's kidnappers already knew we were coming, there was no need for us to avoid it.
"This way." Yu Jie pointed to the stairs on the right and walked straight up.
Seeing Yu Jie's calm appearance, I also followed behind her, and there was only the footsteps of me and Yu Jie going up the stairs in the huge abandoned hospital.
As I walked, I silently counted in my heart: "The second floor, the third floor, the fourth floor, the fifth floor..."
When we arrived, we were standing at the top of the stairs, and there was a sign hanging at the entrance to the fifth floor with three big words written on it.
Morgue.
A gust of wind blew, and I shivered, and my heart was a little drumming.
On the other hand, Yu Jie beside her, she is very calm.
"Look at your phone, did the person text you?" She spoke.
I lit up my phone, and it vibrated again, the same number, and sent another message.
"Get in."
I looked ahead and saw that it was the door to the morgue, which was a little old, but it was tightly closed.
Before I had time to think about it, Yu Jie walked directly forward and pushed the door open, she walked in directly, and I followed her helplessly.
It was empty, but there was nothing to show up, such as corpses or anything.
Yu Jie and I stood inside, and found that there was no one inside, and when we looked around, there was nothing strange, and Charlene was not inside.
"Did the man say anything else?" Yu Jie asked.
I glanced at my phone and shook my head, "No." ”
She stopped talking, and walked around inside, tossing and turning around where she could hide, and I was amazed by her unpretentious movements, and at the same time somewhat admired her boldness.
Yu Jie walked to the place where the corpse was placed, her hand groped nearby, and suddenly, something popped out.
I looked at it and saw that it was a bed, popping out of the cabinet where the corpse was kept, and I have to say, this movement really scared me.
Before I could recover from it, I could see what seemed to be lying on the bed, and I had a bad feeling in my heart.
Before I could say anything to stop it, I saw Yu Jie step forward and lift the white cloth covering it.
I blinked, and through the light of my phone, I could see the person lying on it, it was Charlene.
I hurried to the side, Charlene was still wearing the clothes she wore for work that day, lying on it with her eyes closed, and my heart was pounding.
Yu Jie stood next to me and looked at me, didn't speak, I took a deep breath, slowly put my hand under Charlene's nose, my heart almost stopped tensely, I was afraid that my fingers didn't sense Charlene's breathing.
A faint heat hit my fingers, and I lifted the heart in my throat and let it go.
Charlene is still alive.
I reached out and shook her shoulder, she didn't mean to come to her senses.
I took a closer look at her and found that she didn't have any injuries on her body, but I don't know why she kept unconscious.
"Charlene, Charlene!" I called her name, but nothing happened.
"Don't shout, let's take Charlene out of here first." Yu Jie said calmly.
"Okay, you can help me get her on my back." I said to Yu Jie.
I stood with my back to Charlene, and Yu Jie helped her up and put her on my back.
I picked up Charlene on my back, stood firm, and prepared to go out, but as soon as I reached the door, the door closed suddenly.
"What's going on?" I asked.
Yu Jie shook her head in confusion, she walked to the door to check it, and said, "The door is locked, not blown by the wind, but locked from the outside." ”
I was a little stunned when I heard Yu Jie's words, the door was locked from the outside, so wouldn't we have no way to open it inside, wouldn't we be unable to get out?
Yu Jie obviously realized this, she stood at the door for a long time, has been studying the door, after a long time, turned around and said helplessly: "Can't open." ”
I didn't know what to do for a while, and I couldn't get out in a short time, so I put Charlene on my back back on the bed before, and walked to the door without giving up, and found that the door was really locked from the outside, and it was not the lock that came with this door, it was the kind of lock that locked the big iron door bought outside, and it was impossible to open it without a key.
The phone in my pocket vibrated a little, I took out my phone and looked at it, and found that it was still a message from that number, I clicked on it and looked at it, and the content on it was "This is my gift to you, do you like it?" ”
At the same time, the sound of cars coming from downstairs outside.
I rushed to the window and saw that a car had been parked downstairs at some point, and it was starting, and after a few seconds, I drove forward until I couldn't see the car.
"Fuck!" I looked at the sentence on my phone again, and almost smashed it off in anger.
"Cellphone, call for help!" Yu Jie reminded me next to me.
I listened to her words and instantly understood what she meant, and stopped the movement of the handle, she meant to let me use my mobile phone to call for help like someone outside.
I quickly opened the phone book, found Hadron's phone as quickly as possible, and was just about to dial out, but an interface popped up that I couldn't dial.
I was a little weird: ", what's going on, broken?" ”
Yu Jie probed over, looked at it for a while and said, "Your mobile phone has no signal." ”
Only then did I see that the signal grid above was 0, and there was no signal at all.
"How can there be no signal? Didn't you just get a text message? I scolded angrily.
Yu Jie didn't look very surprised, she thought about it for a while.
"It must have been some way to block the signal here when that man left just now."
The purpose must be to prevent us from contacting the people outside, the door is locked, this is the fifth floor again, jumping down is a dead end, this place is relatively remote, usually no one will come at all, it seems that the person who took Charlene away planned from the beginning, to trap us here, so that we can not survive and die.
It's just that I can't figure out why they did this, they took Charlene and asked me to come by myself, obviously they wanted me and Charlene to die here, who wanted to kill us.
I thought of the person who sent Charlene a note before, and just as I thought of it, I heard Yu Jie say, "It won't be the person who sent Charlene a note." ”
Only then did I realize that I was so engrossed in what I had just thought that I unconsciously said what was in my heart.
"How can you be sure you're not that person?" I asked.
Yu Jie said: "That person only sent a note to Charlene alone, which means that he only wants Charlene's life alone, then he only needs to arrest Charlene, there is no need for you to come over too, so the person who caught Charlene and the person who sent her the note is definitely not the same person." ”
"Who could that be?" I said to myself, confused.
"That man caught Charlene, and then used Charlene as bait to get you over, the purpose must be to target the two of you, think about it, have you ever offended anyone?" Yu Jie analyzed.
"Offend whom?" I thought about it carefully and denied: "Impossible, Charlene and I are at home every day except for work, who can we offend?" ”
"Are you sure?" She asked again with confirmation.
"I'm sure!" I affirmed.
