Chapter 162: Exploring the Tower at Night
More than ten meters ahead, there are two closed wooden doors, and there is glass on the door, but because it is too dirty, I don't know whether it is transparent glass or opaque.
An Beimo was about to walk forward, but I grabbed her and shone a flashlight on the ground, with a solemn face.
An Beimo, who didn't know why, looked at the ground along the light, and immediately understood what I asked her to see. There are no footprints on the ground here!
An Beimo and I looked at each other, and it seemed that our judgment outside the door just now was skewed.
There were footprints outside the door, but there were no in the door, indicating that the people who had come before only stayed at the door for a while and did not come in.
Looking at it this way, perhaps the footprints outside the door were not left by people here, but by travelers passing by. I couldn't open the door, so I lingered outside the door for a while and left.
At present, it is judged that this possibility is relatively high.
I made a careful gesture to An Beimo, and then the two of us walked forward slowly, one after the other, always paying attention to our feet, so as not to make a noise when touching the debris next to us.
Halfway through, I looked back at the footprints left on the ground by An Beimo and I, and a strange feeling rose in my heart, and I found that something didn't seem right.
But what was wrong, I couldn't tell for a while. Anyway, this building made me feel uncomfortable, and from the moment I entered the wall, I couldn't help but feel nervous and nervous.
This may be a kind of foreknowledge of danger, which has not happened to me before, but since I have the blood of the Night Emperor in my body, my perception has become much sharper.
When we came to those two doors, An Beimo and I hid on both sides. We looked at each other, and when we were ready, I slowly reached out and pushed the door.
With a "squeak", the door opened, and I shone my flashlight inside, and found that behind the door was an upward staircase.
When I went inside, I found that it was also a mess, littered with debris and waste paper, and the dust on the ground was almost an inch thick, obviously as if no one had been here for a long time.
Looking at the surrounding walls, there are all kinds of graffiti written in Japanese characters that I don't recognize, which adds to the infinite eerie atmosphere here.
We went up the stairs, turned a corner and went up a flight of stairs, and we saw the hallway of the school classroom.
And when you get here, there are no more stairs to go up. Originally, this staircase could only go up from the first floor to the second floor, and it is estimated that the staircase going up should be located elsewhere.
There are more than a dozen doors in this wide corridor, and there are class signs hanging above the doors. In such a dark abandoned building, I felt a little tingling in my scalp, and a chill slowly rose from the soles of my feet.
It's really wrong! There is no trace of anyone here at all. Since this is a gangster stronghold, it is impossible for an entire floor to be abandoned like this!
There are many doubts in my heart, but An Beimo and I are also masters of the arts, although there is a strange atmosphere everywhere, but we are not panicked because of this.
We have never believed in ghosts and gods, and naturally we will not be frightened by an abandoned building.
We are now at the end of the second floor, and if we want to find the stairs further up, we have to search through the hallway and forward. The podium and the main building are connected, and the black corridor leads directly to it, which is really a bit like a black hole in another world with no end.
Along the left side of the corridor, An Beimo and I walked slowly forward, from the podium to the main building passage.
The classrooms here are translucent, which means that there is a large window next to the door of each classroom, so you can see the whole classroom from the outside.
I think this may have been designed to monitor students, and I guess in the past, school leaders often stood out of the window to see the students inside.
Feeling that the atmosphere was too tense, I lowered my voice and said to An Beimo in the back: "As soon as I entered the school, I remembered that when I was in school, I always liked to peek at the students in the back window. I slept in class, but I was caught by him many times. ”
As I spoke, I also looked at the window of the classroom opposite.
Just as the beam of the flashlight shone into the classroom through the glass window, I suddenly felt as if there was a figure in the classroom opposite me.
My hairs stood on end, my whole body trembled, and a chill rushed down my back and up my head.
An Beimo in the back noticed that I suddenly stopped, and he didn't know what I found, so he stopped to look at me.
Seeing that my eyes were straight, I was stunned by the classroom window opposite with a flashlight. An Beimo pushed me and whispered to me: "Hurry up, now is not the time to remember the past!" ”
But I didn't move, I used a flashlight to shine in through the window again, and after looking left and right, I said to An Beimo: "If I said that I saw someone sitting in the classroom opposite just now, I don't know if you believe it or not?" ”
An Beimo was stunned for a moment, thinking that I was teasing her and was about to have a seizure, but when I looked at it again, my expression was extremely serious, and it didn't look like I was joking at all.
She asked me, "What do you see?" As she spoke, she shone her flashlight into the classroom opposite.
I'm sure I'm right, when my flashlight flashed by, there was definitely a figure sitting behind a desk in the classroom. I can even remember the appearance of a schoolgirl with long hair, but in a flash, I could only see the outline, but not the face.
An Beimo was noncommittal, she slapped me quietly, and the two of us immediately walked quickly to the opposite classroom window, and at the same time raised the flashlight to shine inside.
The desks and chairs in the classroom are neatly arranged and free of clutter, and if it weren't for the thick dust on the surface, I would think that someone would have tidied it up every day.
Except for the desks and chairs, the classroom was empty!
The beam of my flashlight fell on one of the tables and chairs, and I vaguely remember the figure I had just seen sitting here. But now there is nothing but dust on the tables and chairs.
I couldn't have been dazzled for no reason, and for a moment, I couldn't explain what had just happened. An Beimo didn't see it, but she had absolute trust in me. She even used a flashlight to try back and forth to see if it was a reflection caused by where the beam was shining.
Seeing that An Beimo's search was fruitless, I stopped her from continuing to try. Whispered, "Anyway, let's go find the stairs first." It's a bit evil here, so let's hurry up and get out of here as soon as possible. ”
An Beimo nodded, and the two of us walked forward again, invisibly we sped up a little, and we no longer looked around on the way, just walked along the corridor.
It's one thing to believe or not to believe in supernatural things, and it's another thing to exist or not.
When you walk to the middle of the hallway, there is a wide area with no classrooms on either side, but a row of sanitary sinks for students to wash their hands.
Unlike today's sanitary ware, which was made of ceramic, the school's pool was made of brick and cement, and then covered with traditional white tiles.
On the wall above the pool is a long, horizontal hose with several ports for connecting to the faucet. But now the faucets have long been removed, and the outlets have been sealed with plugs.
I glanced at it hurriedly and moved on. After walking more than ten meters, I suddenly heard a very strange sound.
An Beimo also heard it, and the two of us turned our heads at the same time, and the flashlight in our hands also shone towards the road behind us at the same time.
That's the sound of the water! It's like a faucet doesn't turn on, and a thin stream flows down from the mouth and falls into the pool.
But this is simply not going to happen!
I looked at both sides of the pool when I passed by, but I didn't see a single tap. All the ports are welded with iron plugs, and it is impossible for water to come out. What's more, this place has been abandoned for so long, I'm afraid the waterway has long been cut off. Even if there is a faucet, it can't put out water.
An Beimo and I remained still, both staring at the flashlight shining behind us. Unfortunately, the place where that sound came from was blocked by the wall, and we couldn't see what was really going on behind the wall.
It was very confusing to encounter such a bizarre and strange thing at this time, and it was something that I couldn't believe and explain.
Mysterious things similar to the supernatural were originally only seen in movies. But today I actually felt it myself, and it was really a creepy feeling.
But after a moment of horror, I was a little excited, and I wanted to go over and see what weird things were going to happen behind the wall.
Just when I was hesitating to let An Beimo go back with me to take a look, suddenly there was a slight change in that voice. Just now, it was as if the water was flowing evenly into the pool, but now it turned into an intermittent splashing sound.
I was shocked, and immediately realized that it was someone washing their hands with water!
Damn it! I cursed in my heart, trying to scare us, and I wanted to see what was going on here.
I slowly walked back a few steps, stood beside An Beimo, and bowed to An Beimo in the direction where the voice came from.
An Beimo nodded knowingly, and slowly pulled out the dagger on his waist.
Just as we were about to walk back, the voice suddenly disappeared, and the hallway immediately returned to a dead silence, as if nothing had happened.
The more this happens, the more I have to go back and find out. I was in front, An Beimo was behind, and the two of us walked back quickly.
It's the same as what I just saw, the miserable white pool, the dark water pipes, there is no change.
I approached the pool and looked inside, and there was dust, cobwebs, dirt, but there was no trace of water. From beginning to end, the pool was dry.
An Beimo and I looked at each other, and I went to the pool opposite to check it again, and the result was exactly the same as here.
If it weren't for An Beimo by my side, I really doubt that I had hallucinations just now. The clear sound of running water, and the splashing of someone's hands, didn't seem to have happened at all.
I felt helpless about something that couldn't be explained by common sense.
I thought about it for a while, and beckoned An Beimo to leave quickly, this school is probably not an ordinary abandoned school, and it must not stay here for a long time.
The two of us continued down the hallway, without further delay, and soon reached the end of the other end.
However, when we stood at the end, we were all stunned, this was actually a dead end, and there was no staircase to go up at all.
It's a hell of a life, there's no stairs, so how do you get upstairs? I didn't see an elevator in this old building.
I didn't have time to think about the reason, so I immediately pulled An Beimo and walked back. This time we walked faster, and in a moment we were back at the staircase we had come up from.
As a result, the two of us were stunned again, and at this moment we were standing in an empty corner, and the staircase we had climbed up from the first floor had disappeared into thin air!
