Chapter 176 "Smiling Man-Down-1"

The fire alarm rang suddenly, but they ignored it.

They walked lightly down the floor, and the back staircase was silent, as if the disaster had ended.

Ice's answer was chilling.

If the subject is an unfamiliar stranger, adopting such an attitude is at best indifferent.

He's your father, how could he be so hasty?

Thing...... It's too strange, Guan Tianxiang doesn't have time to question it, anyway, his intuition tells him that Elsie doesn't intend to tell the truth.

Guan Tianxiang didn't have the courage to find out about Aixi...... She's the embodiment of a youkai at all......

Since he didn't answer, everyone slowly packed up and opened the wooden door.

Outside the door was a thick air of smoke, a faint natural light, and corpses and blood all over the floor.

The back staircase was already rancid...... It's suffocating to really linger for an extra second.

Thankfully, they didn't encounter sniping from deviants or gangs. Are they dead......

Instinctively shocked Guan Tianxiang, things are not so simple......

During the one-minute journey, everyone did not say anything, and this time Guan Tianxiang did not make a mistake and dragged his companions into danger.

The storage room on the 8th floor is also not alone.

In an instant, an inexplicable strange feeling filled Guan Tianxiang's thoughts, and it felt like all the people here had disappeared.

"Actually...... Are all the others dead? Elsie was in the dark storage room, taking small bites of cheese sticks in her hand. Toby said that was the last one.

"Aside from the annoying alarm bells, the whole staircase really doesn't make any sound at all. Depend on. Ah Mao swept his upper arm, but Guan Tianxiang secretly thought that there were actually some inexplicable jet sounds outside the building, but the sound was so balanced that it was difficult to detect at all.

The fire alarm bell sounded a second time.

"Actually, we've seen a lot of corpses in this building...... "Toby stroked the poor Lang Lang Cat, "or maybe the rest of the survivors may be just us and Fan Guofuโ€”"

"It's fucking Fan Guofu, tell me, it's fucking."

"In any case," Toby didn't stop Mao, as she agreed, "the only reason why they have survived until now is because they dodge into their units and annihilate their enemies with their swords when they are besieged by bloodthirsty derangers." The fire alarm bells rang very frequently, indicating that there were very few survivors. Of course, I can't rule out which people have taken refuge in certain units, but based on the number of corpses, it can be judged that such people are extremely minority, if any. โ€

The fire alarm bell is used to guide residents into the elevator. The elevator is used to count the number of people. If no one enters the elevator, the fire alarm will sound, so the more frequent the fire alarm bell is, it means that the residents of the building are already in the minority.

That is, it can be said that they are the few survivors left.

A thought flashed through me, could there be people who did not lose their lives, but managed to escape? I really don't know......

"Damn, don't fucking talk so much nonsense, we won't be able to get to the rooftop before dark, and we'll be in trouble again." Amau stood up suddenly, and what he said was very true.

After eating a small amount of the remaining dry food, everyone set off again, and Ah Mao, who was armed with a pistol, pushed open the fire door on the 8th floor, and cautiously walked out of the space of the back staircase, as did the other three people and the one-eyed kitten.

Ah Mao walked in the front, his pace was steady, and he posed as a leader. Perhaps he also understands that Toby needs time to adjust to his mood at the bottom, and he needs to lead the crowd at this moment.

Guan Tianxiang and Toby walked at the end, Toby picked up the kitten uneasily, and did not let Lang Lang go by himself, and the pampered piano cat also obediently remained silent, just licking Toby's slippery hand from time to time. Guan Tianxiang secretly thought to himself, although the kitten lost half of his eyesight, at least it was not life-threatening, otherwise Toby would definitely be in mourning and collapse.

From the 8th floor to the rooftop, the distance of more than 10 floors is estimated to take about 15 minutes.

Because, Guan Tianxiang's right heel is no longer good...... This is also the reason why he can't follow Ah Mao. His right foot was so painful that he couldn't writhe, and his toes couldn't move. It's just that he didn't want to slow down the progress of the brigade anymore, so he didn't tell them.

Toby seemed to notice Guan Tianxiang's limping and embarrassed steps, but he was in no mood to comfort him or help him up, so he walked in front of him and did not look back.

Guan Tianxiang struggled to step on the steps, and every step was also torture to his right foot, and he felt that he was on the verge of a fracture......

The companions in front began to walk farther and farther away with Guan Tianxiang, farther and farther...... The guilt caused by the past involving his companions prevented Guan Tianxiang from stopping them...... In the thick fog, Guan Tianxiang only saw Toby alone, and she never looked back to ask about Guan Tianxiang's condition.

Guan Tianxiang gritted his teeth and endured the pain as he stepped on the stairs, although he was exhausted, he only walked about two floors.

Guan Tianxiang was finally forced to stop, panting, his forehead and limbs were covered with hot sweat, and his eyes were even faster to burst into tears.

Toby continued to walk ahead, and Guan Tianxiang had to get back on the road in ten seconds, or he might get lost.

Guan Tianxiang squatted down and stroked his swollen heels, damn the old troubles attacked......

Guan Tianxiang looked up at the ventilation window next to him, at this time dusk was approaching, and the natural light was also weakened. Soon night fell, and they were about to face a new round of predicament

A strange sound suddenly came from the direction of the stairs behind him.

The first sound had already given Guan Tianxiang goosebumps.

"Knock knock...... Knock Knock ......"

It's like ...... Be...... The sound of leather shoes touching hard?

Behind Guan Tianxiang, there was the sound of two and two leather shoes stomping on the ground, which was crisp and terrifying. If it was just ordinary footsteps, he would definitely not be like a thorn in the back at the moment. What frightened him was the strange pattern of the footsteps.

"Knock knock...... Knock Knock ......"

It was two footsteps that were quickly linked together, and then about a second apart before another two footsteps were heard.

The cowardly Guan Tianxiang didn't dare to look back, facing his situation directly, but at the same time he couldn't say anything. Toby was out of his sight, as if he was the only one in the white mist.

It feels a bit similar to what happened to the 14th floor...... Abandoned by his companions, he faced the thrill alone.

The sound of the two and two taps of his shoes hitting the ground was getting louder and louder, indicating that something was getting closer and closer to him. He couldn't help but try to explain, could it be a survivor? Could it be a gang? Or even just an azard infection......

"Knock knock...... Knock Knock ......"

No, normal people don't walk at such strange paces......

Guan Tianxiang's heart was beating non-stop, and the hot sweat all over his body was completely replaced by the cold sweat born of the cold air. Presumably...... That wouldn't be something normal......

According to the volume of the sound, it is believed that he is only ten meters away from Guan Tianxiang...... Guan Tianxiang, who was trembling all over, held on to the handrail of the stairs and slowly stood up weakly

"Knock knock."

Suddenly, the sound of leather shoes on the ground stopped.

The unknown other party seemed to stop, and the reason was unknown.

Sky...... What's going on......

Is it a wise choice to accept your fate and shout for help at this moment?

Guan Tianxiang was stunned for a few seconds, and there was no strange sound of "knock knock" behind him, but Guan Tianxiang never looked back to peep.

Guan Tianxiang is too timid. Every curiosity is admired, and the result is mystery and fright. The probe witnessed Aixi's bloody head, opened the door and found Shi Mi's body, and told Guan Tianxiang not to look back.

Maybe...... Guan Tianxiang should turn a deaf ear and move on, anyway, Guan Tianxiang has to keep up with everyone's pace...... Ignore ...... Ignore ......

Guan Tianxiang, who covered his ears and stole the bell, stepped forward one level and continued the journey with difficulty......

It seems that the weird really left Guan Tianxiang

"Knock knock...... Knock Knock ......"

Guan Tianxiang gasped violently, and his heart was about to jump out of his heart!

Guan Tianxiang had only taken three steps, and the voice had been repeated.

The uninvited guest...... should know where Guan Tianxiang is, he stopped to spy on him, and when he advanced, he continued to walk, walking at a strange pace......

He was in the fog, and he was always following his back.

Guan Tianxiang, who completely lacked the courage to turn back, endured tears and the sharp pain in his right foot, and walked up and down in a hurry. There was no voice from Toby and the others above, perhaps because they were silent, or perhaps ......

"Knock knock...... Knock knock ......" The sound was never interrupted, and strangely, it was noticeably frequent. That means it's a hurry.

If it was the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground, the person behind it was following Guan Tianxiang's accelerated pace, increasing the speed of walking.

It's so weird...... It's so weird......

As dusk faded and darkness ushered in, the steps ahead became unsightly.
