Chapter 129: The Storage Room on the Eighth Floor (2)
Guan Tianxiang rarely met anyone who had a habit of cleanliness in his life, perhaps because he knew too few girls......
If this sentence comes from any boy, Ah Mao will definitely return it tenfold, and the details will not be discussed here.
Yes, based on Chinese tradition, the word "4" has an ominous meaning of "death", so all floors where the word "4" appears will be canceled, so this building does not have 4th, 14th, and 24th floors. Of course, if a building has more than 40 floors, then it is inevitable that there will be "4" at the beginning of the floor. However, the building they were in was a 23-story building.
"I live on the 15th floor, and I was sleeping at the beginning, and I woke up to find that Abba and Grandma were not at home, and then I left the house, and then I met a lot of strange people." Toby dropped the cheese sausage sleeve on the floor, wiping the residue from his little mouth.
Ah Mao swallowed the cheese intestines: "What about your parents?" ”
She smiled and said nothing, but her eyes flashed with sadness.
"Fool, I shouldn't have asked these ......" Ah Mao knew that a mistake had been made, and the disaster came from his mouth.
"It's okay, I've calmed down," Toby nodded, "and really don't say foul language." ”
Everyone was silent, presumably thinking of their deceased companions and loved ones.
"It's okay, we have to try to survive and get out of this horrible place." Toby smiled cheerfully, Guan Tianxiang really admired her and her optimistic motivation.
At this time, a small black shadow suddenly slipped out of the carton. When Guan Tianxiang raised his vigilance, Aixi shouted loudly: "It's so cute! ”
A gray-haired kitten let out a low "meow" and jumped into Toby's arms.
"Let me introduce you to Lang Lang, my brother." Toby smiled sweetly as he stroked the kitten, "Don't worry, it won't drag everyone down, I've trained it during this time, and it won't make a loud noise." ”
No wonder I kept smelling an indescribable smell, which turned out to be cat.
"Why is it called Lang Lang?" Guan Tianxiang opened his mouth for the first time and found that the cat was staring at him.
"Haha, that's right," Toby cocked his feet again and let the kitten lie on his lap, "because every time I play the piano at home, the cat climbs on a stool to block me and plays around, so I call it 'Lang Lang'." ”
It turns out that she still knows how to play the piano and has the habit of raising a cat, and it looks like a caring and talented little girl.
Guan Tianxiang's eyes were attracted to her disapprovingly.
"Ha, this cat can play football, so I'll call it 'Becky'." Mao's ultimate rotten gag in exchange for a silent response. Toby was confused, but still chuckled politely.
"Can you give me a hug?" Elsie stared at Lang Lang with a look of intoxication.
"Forgive me for refusing, Lang Lang is very afraid of strangers. Hee-hee. Toby stroked the short hair on the kitten's head with a gratifying face, and Lang Lang obediently "meowed".
"We want to escape. Depend on. Ah Mao suddenly complained.
Honestly, who wouldn't want to run away? Everyone knows it's a hell that can't be worse, but is there a way to escape it?
What's more, without Mei Tao, how can they escape from a dangerous edifice without a leader?
Despite knowing the dire nature of the situation, there is nothing to be done. This is Guan Tianxiang's helplessness, the helplessness of his life.
"Don't say it's good to use foul language, I want to too." Toby said sincerely, "But if you want to survive and fall, you must get enough sleep." I haven't slept all this time, what about you? ”
The three of them glanced at each other, and they just took a nap.
"Haha, why don't you take a rest first, and after the rest, we'll discuss ways to get out of here together." Toby carries the kitten Lang Lang to a cardboard box, which seems to be the kitten's "residence".
It turns out that the carton is only for this purpose. The kitten screamed softly, leaped into the broken cardboard box, and disappeared from their sight.
This scene is probably the most heartwarming scene of the whole trip, or is it too shocking from the previous experience......
To be honest, I escaped from the compact bloody storm just now, but now I am witnessing such a daily scene, and the contrast is really unadaptable, crying and laughing.
Toby's appearance may be a fountain in the desert, giving them a little comfort in their hearts in a desperate situation. At least, there is still a presence of Gu in the building.
No matter what, Guan Tianxiang still chuckled leisurely.
Elsie and Mao don't seem to be very wary of their new girl, and agree with Toby's suggestion. Toby says the storage room is very hidden, so just lock the door and don't worry about anyone finding out.
Toby locked the door and turned off the flashlight. The crowd fell asleep to the floor, exhausted. Despite the cramped air, they soon fell asleep because of the precious peace they had received and the fact that everyone had been exhausted.
It's not so easy to fall asleep.
experienced being held hostage by the gang, Capricorn's inhumane experience, the fat girl's righteous murder, and Ah Jian's heroic sacrifice...... All that was witnessed will not be forgotten in the short term.
Every time Guan Tianxiang only closes his eyes for half a second, all the thrilling experiences will come to him deeply, impacting his fragile thoughts, even if he is sleepy, he still can't fall asleep.
Moreover, Guan Tianxiang just remembered a very important matter.
When he remembered, Guan Tianxiang bounced off the floor, and then he was stabbed in the heel of his right foot.
That was the price of escaping, although Guan Tianxiang would still choose to sacrifice his right foot in exchange for at least a chance to survive. I hope I can walk again in the future......
Guan Tianxiang searched from his pocket, and because the cramped air was very stuffy, his whole body was oozing hot sweat. Everyone else was asleep, and Mao's snoring was so harsh that it covered all the sounds.
Guan Tianxiang, who was faintly painful, took out the A4 white paper that had been folded in half for a long time from his pocket, the paper had been in the small pocket for a long time, and the white paper was already quite wrinkled due to sweat staining......
Fortunately, the font on the paper is still legible.
It was Mei Tao's note to Guan Tianxiang. As mentioned earlier, Mei Tao has a quirk that is unusual for ordinary people, that is, he likes to use the A4 white paper and pen he carries with him to help him think. This note is a sheet of A4 paper folded in half.
"I'm afraid I won't give it to you later." Mei Tao's words at that time resurfaced in the vast mind.
Why won't you give Guan Tianxiang later?
Perhaps the answer is simple. At that time, Mei Tao's broken left hand finger, the overflowing blood, and Mei Tao's silent expression of pain just explained everything.
I still vaguely remember that Mei Tao explained through the protocol method that there was a causal relationship between the bleeding wound and the abnormal behavior.
Mei Tao stuffed his notes to Guan Tianxiang in time after being injured, more or less because of his own confidence in his own inference: bleeding will be abnormal.
Later, Mei Tao really became strange, first without saying a word, then trying to separate Ai Xi from them, and then even more weirdly jumped out of the ventilation window, his whereabouts are unknown, and his life and death are uncertain.
Then, it can be said that Mei Tao's clever calculation predicted his fate.
Guan Tianxiang held the note in his hand, which, as mentioned earlier, was a rough font of more than a hundred characters, ugly as hieroglyphs.
However, no matter what, Guan Tianxiang has to read it again, because the information that Mei Tao insisted on leaving him before he became abnormal must have a pivotal position.
In the dim light, Guan Tianxiang struggled to find Toby's flashlight to illuminate the clues clenched in his hands.
groping in the dark...... Blurred vision......
Guan Tianxiang approached Tobi, who was curled up and turned away, she was sleeping sweetly, and she didn't make a disturbing snoring sound like Ah Mao.
If he hadn't been accustomed to the completely dim environment at night, so that his perspective at night was much sharper, Guan Tianxiang would definitely not be able to see his fingers at this moment.
The flashlight should be nearby...... Really, it was placed next to the cardboard box.
Guan Tianxiang walked over and picked it up, it was a medium-sized flashlight, which was quite easy to hold.
In complete silence, Guan Tianxiang sat down again, pressed the only button of the flashlight, and a beam of light immediately shot into the wall.
It was Guan Tianxiang who found out that it was a badly faded wall, most of the paint had fallen off, and it looked like it had not been properly cared for for a long time. He crossed his legs, stacked the A4 paper on his lap, and shone the light at it
He heard the crash and shuddered. You know, in the silence of the night, you can really be scared out of your body when you are suddenly stimulated......
