Chapter XVIII
Xiaopang looked at Zhao Yan, his face was full of questions, he didn't know Zhao Yan's strange movements in the corridor alone, as if he had encountered something panicked, but there was really nothing in front of him. Zhao Yan was also stunned, the child's weird ball just now was gone, it was like a dream, a nightmare, and at this moment Zhao Yan's mobile phone rang, making him tremble.
Zhao Yan took out his mobile phone, there was an unfamiliar number on it, pressed the key, and there was a noise, nothing could be heard, only the "squeak" sound of signal interference.
"Hey, hey, can you hear me" Zhao Yan looked at the phone screen and asked a few more times.
At this time, Chubby's mobile phone also rang, and Chubby walked out of the mailroom and went out to answer the phone.
Just when Lu Yan was about to hang up the phone, an anxious cry for help came from there: "Old, teacher, I'm Xia Xu, please help me." "The signal was staccato over there, and there was a loud gasp, followed by the sound of stumbling things.
"Don't worry, it's okay, there's a teacher, where are you now?" Zhao Yan asked urgently.
"I, I'm in the old building on the edge of the field, help, don't come, don't come." Then there was a woman's scream, the voice was filled with boundless resentment, and Zhao Yan's hands trembled in fright, and there was a burst of blind sound. The phone was cut off.
"Hey, hey," Zhao Yan called a few times in a row, and quickly broadcast the phone, "Hello, the phone you dialed is turned off or not in the service area" Zhao Yan put down the phone. Turned his head and looked out the window, the sky was still overcast, the rain was not light at all, looked up at the watch, it was four o'clock in the afternoon, to go or not to go.
After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and gritted his teeth, "Go, I'm his teacher no matter what, and I'll be responsible for anything that happens at school" Just made up his mind, then Chubby came in.
"Teacher, I'm going home, my mother is looking for me in a hurry, let me go home quickly, I'll go first, teacher, pay attention to your body, call me if you have something, I saved the phone number in your phone just now" smiled and turned back.
"Okay, I don't know how it is over there, it's not good to let the child go on an adventure together, forget it, let's go see what I'm talking about first." Looking back, I saw that the woman had been sitting there the whole time, like a wooden carving, and the room was dim, except for the silhouette reflected in the window.
I wanted to ask about the situation over there, but seeing this, Zhao Yan still didn't dare to ask anything, after Xiaopang left, the room somehow suddenly became very cold, and gusts of cold wind blew from there, and the woman just sat there, if it wasn't for Xiaopang saying that he wanted something with him just now, Zhao Yan would really think it was a dead corpse.
He didn't want to stay in this place for a moment, so he opened the door and ran out quickly.
Outside is the hall of the teaching building, push open the door, the rain outside is falling, the sky is very cloudy, the rain outside rises layers of mist, * there is no figure on the field, he wants to go back to class to get an umbrella, think about it or forget it, he will think of that strange dream when he goes back, that girl, that person behind him.
Looking into the distance, the old building that has not been demolished is on the other side of the field, because of the rain, it gives people a sense of ethereal and confused.
He threw his coat over his head and slammed into the old building with a splash.
Within a few minutes, I ran to the entrance of the old building. Only then did I see the appearance of this building clearly.
There are a total of five floors high, the dark and dilapidated wall has fallen off in many places, the windows are still intact, but some have been broken, a lightning bolt pierced the sky, shining in the building, a muffled thunder as if it was going to break something, the whole building was echoing, Zhao Yan's frightened heart was trembling.
Wrapped his clothes hard, the phone still couldn't get through, he strengthened his courage and shouted loudly: "Is there anyone?" ”
The echo echoed throughout the hallway, and there were echoes everywhere, as if someone inside was asking him "Is there anyone?" and waited for a long time without anyone answering. I couldn't care so much, I came and walked in.
At the moment when he walked into the building, it was like coming to another world, quiet, other quiet, there was no sound around, the sound of rain outside could not be heard here at all, Zhao Yan was standing at the door of the building, there was a long corridor on both sides, the stairs were in the middle, and it extended to the top, the corridors on both sides were deep and quiet, and the dust was all over the corridor, Zhao Yan turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone, he didn't dare to ask if there was anyone, he was afraid that he would be scared to death by his echo.
By the light of his mobile phone, he saw a row of very new footprints stretching forward in the dust, all the way up the stairs, but strangely, there were more than half a person's footprints on the heel side of each footprint, like a person walking in front, crawling on the tip of a person's toes, and following step by step.
Zhao Yan's heart was in his throat, this was too weird, and at this moment he heard bursts of girls' cries from upstairs, thin, distant, and resentful. Zhao Yan took a picture up, but it was too dim, he couldn't see anything clearly, the crying seemed to come down from above, could it be that Xia Xu was crying, the voice obviously felt very far away, but it sounded so real, his scalp was a little numb, sweat was nervously flowing down his face, and there was a voice calling him in his heart, Zhao Yan slowly ran through the hall and climbed the stairs step by step.
There were dilapidated tables and chairs scattered in the corridor in front of him, ascending the steps on the first and a half floors, turning around, two stairs on the left and one on the right, and Zhao Yan walked up from the stairs on the left. There are photos of all kinds of celebrities hanging on the snow-white wall, all of which are all kinds of celebrities, but Zhao Yan always feels that something is wrong there, and suddenly he stopped, he saw that the photo was obviously the last image of the person before he died, the expression was numb, his eyes were empty, he was wearing the funeral clothes when he was buried, and he was wearing a white hat, and suddenly he saw a photo in front of him, which was obviously the photo of the woman he saw in the mailroom.
At this time, the woman was wearing a blue coat, her eyes were staring straight at Zhao Yan, her tongue was sticking out of her mouth for a long time, Zhao Yan retreated in fright, and her body hit the handrail of the stairs, he didn't want to stay here for a moment, turned around and ran the way he came, he went down the stairs quickly, just when he was exhausted from running, he suddenly stopped, "No, just now he remembered that he only went up one floor of the ladder, but now he has run for such a long time, it is enough to climb this building back and forth, Why can't you run downstairs," he suddenly saw the same photo when he looked up, and the eyes were looking at him strangely, and the corners of his mouth revealed a mysterious smile.
At this time, the cry sounded at one time, accompanied by a burst of "bell, bell" seemed to be the sound of a woman walking in high heels, which was coming up from downstairs little by little, and every footstep seemed to be stepping on Zhao Yan's heart, getting closer and closer, about to come up, Zhao Yan turned around and ran upstairs, he didn't know why he was so afraid, it was a kind of fear that came to his heart when he was tired and out of breath and couldn't run a step, then he found that he unconsciously ran into the corridor that he didn't know how many floors it was.
There was no crying in the back, no sound of walking in high heels. It's quiet, it's too quiet.
He leaned against the wall with his hand and panted hard, when the ethereal voice without a little sense of color came to his ears again: "The second article of the class rules, those who do not leave the school on time will die!" ”
Zhao Yan turned his head in fright.
