Chapter 19: 60 Steps

Stepping onto the 6th floor of the staircase, the long staircase above is a little dimly lit.

The staircase from the 6th to the 7th floor is particularly long because of the fact that a three-meter-high equipment level is placed between the two floors according to 22nd century building codes.

In other words, the total height of the 6th and 7th floors is 6.6 meters, and the total height of the intermediate equipment layer is 9.6 meters.

Since the height of each step is usually 16 cm, this means that there are a total of 60 steps in this flight of stairs.

When he arrived here, Wang Tiejiang was still very cautious, and he first used a walkie-talkie to get in touch with the people on duty on the first floor.

The security guard on duty was on the 8th floor at this time, and replied that everything was normal.

There was only one floor from the 8th floor to the 7th floor, and Wang Tiejiang felt that it was not a big problem, so he first stepped on the stairs to the 7th floor, and Lu Yeping followed him up a distance from him.

Just when Wang Tiejiang was about to walk to the 1/3 position, Lu Yeping behind him saw a figure appear on the staircase landing on the 7th floor in the distance.

It's obviously a person, but in the eyes of Lu Yeping's heavy pupils, two overlapping figures strangely appeared.

This was not normal, and Lu Yeping noticed that the man was pushing something hard.

That feeling of danger came again, and Lu Yeping shouted: "There is danger, retreat quickly!" ”

When Wang Tiejiang heard this, he hurriedly turned around and retreated, and the people around him also hurriedly ran down the stairs.

The rumble of a heavy object falling was heard from above, and a black rectangular object was pushed down the stairs and swooped down the stairs.

The small staircase space was almost occupied by that thing, and the people on the stairs couldn't hide if they wanted to, and the only way to leave this staircase was to be safe.

At the moment when he sensed the escalation of danger, Lu Yeping vaguely saw a pair of eyes staring at him in the dimness, which were empty and lifeless.

It was too late, it was too late, Wang Tiejiang hurriedly jumped down the last few stairs, and almost at the same time he and Lu Yeping returned to the staircase on the 6th floor.

And the heavy object had already followed the shadow, almost grazing Wang Tiejiang's back and hitting the wall.

At this time, everyone saw clearly that what slid down was a black mirrored upright piano, which was about 1.5 meters long, and weighed at least two or three hundred kilograms.

The piano hit the wall and completely fell apart, and in the short silence, Lu Yeping once again felt a new danger, and hurriedly shouted: "Run, run!" ”

But it was too late to run, and the inside of the piano that had just been knocked apart burst open!

Steel strings, screws, metal rod twists, springs, brass nails and other small parts of the piano's interior and some of the piano's wooden structure are mixed with a loud sound to shoot out in the surroundings.

The most threatening thing is the metal parts flying in the air, and there is nowhere to hide on this narrow revolving staircase.

At the moment of the explosion, Lu Yeping's nerves were already tense to the extreme, and the ticking sound of the pivot star table suddenly became extremely slow. Everything around him almost stopped, and it seemed to be in a state of super slow playback.

Lu Yeping grabbed a long piece of broken wooden planks at great speed, and blocked the metal yellow flakes and messy splashes that pounced on everyone up and down, left and right!

Five seconds later, the piano's explosion finally ended.

Except for a few minor abrasions on Lu Yeping, almost all of them were injured in varying concentrations, but fortunately, they were not fatal.

The wooden board in Lu Yeping's hand was already miserable, with a lot of small screws and metal reeds inlaid on it, and some places were actually pierced and left a few holes.

In this short period of five seconds, Lu Yeping's incomparably fast skills and incredible speed, coupled with extremely accurate and effective swinging movements, made everyone feel like they were falling into a dream.

Wang Tiejiang has never seen a person's movements so fast and his reactions so precise in his life.

Wang Tiejiang believes that a skill like Lu Yeping is definitely the best in the security industry.

At the same time, the frightened everyone once again realized that if Lu Yeping hadn't made a timely move, everyone would have died again.

This made Wang Tiejiang, the leader of the first team, feel very ashamed, and his face was swollen red with anger.

During the whole process, Lu Yeping has always keenly felt that the terrifying eyes before have been watching him.

He noticed the look of disbelief in those eyes when they saw that they had blocked almost all of the metal parts.

The man on the platform on the seventh floor began to run away at this time, and the angry Wang Tiejiang rushed forward as quickly as a cheetah hunting for prey.

It's a pity that he is more than 60 steps away from the man, and it usually takes a young man fourteen or five seconds to climb these 60 steps as fast as possible.

But after all, Wang Tiejiang has undergone professional training, and it only took him about ten seconds to rush up these more than 60 steps!

To everyone's surprise, Lu Yeping actually rushed forward after him.

Although he started relatively late, he was one step ahead of Wang Tiejiang and ran up this staircase.

As soon as they came to the 7th floor, Wang Tiejiang and Lu Yeping heard the sound of a fight coming from the corridor on the 7th floor.

Rushing into the hallway, it was the security guards patrolling on the 8th floor who heard the sound and rushed down to scuffle with the fleeing man.

When Lu Yeping and Wang Tiejiang rushed closer, the man had already been subdued and pressed to the ground.

This is a thin and thin young man, about 1.7 meters or so. His eyes were full of horror, and his whole body was trembling.

Wang Tiejiang walked up and mentioned the young man and gave this guy a punch in the face, and blood came out of his mouth.

Wang Tiejiang slammed him against the wall and shouted, "Who are you, why do you want to harm us?" ”

The young man trembled with fright, and could not speak.

Lu Yeping stood aside and did not move, but carefully observed the young man.

But Lu Yeping found that the person's eyes were different from before, no longer as empty as just now, and they looked very normal at the moment.

Lu Yeping wondered, only 10 seconds later, why this person had changed so much.

Not only the eyes, when I saw this person before, there were two layers of double images on this person's body, and at this moment, there were almost no more, but there was a faint layer of phantom looming around his body.

This puzzled Lu Yeping, but seeing this was enough for him to completely believe in Old Man Yue's identification of his double pupil.

Wang Tiejiang grabbed the young man's neck and pushed him against the wall, and roared viciously: "Tell me who you are......"

In horror, the man finally stammered: "I, I'm Liu Wenyuan......"

Then a look of utter horror appeared on the young man's face, as if he had seen the most terrible thing in the world.
