Chapter 1308
"What an airtight coffin..."
Ji Li, whose clothes were all wet, stood in the corridor on the fourteenth floor of the north building, his body temperature being gradually eroded by the coldness.
The tall buildings on all sides were like a huge coffin, suppressing it in the building.
The time came to 18:52.
Ji Li's crutches were lost under the bed of No. 1414, and his backpack was left in the bathroom of No. 1413. At this moment, he was traveling lightly.
Seeing the winter rain falling in the narrow night sky outside the building, hitting the old building unevenly, it really turned into a ghost building.
The supernatural powers of rooms 1414 and 1413 are temporarily left to Mei Sheng.
Mei Sheng is the second batch of clerks to come to the seventh branch, following Fang Shenyan and Yu Guo. Her character, ability, and vision are all excellent.
You can only be a clerk in the seventh branch, but it is not an exaggeration to be a store manager in other branches.
With everything behind her being left in her hands, Ji Li could completely relax. Perhaps this was also a forced and helpless move.
Because he knew very well that for this mission, compared to the inside of the house, the root cause was outside the house.
There is still some time before the agreed meeting at seven o'clock in the evening. In these 8 minutes, Ji Li has two choices...
Or, go to 6002 to investigate why Pang Guijuan is special;
Or, go to 1818 to investigate the big-eyed doll and whether there is the last hidden clerk there who has not made any sound.
Judging from the current situation, the former is obviously easier than the latter and seems to be easier to implement.
But Ji Li didn't think so. This was most likely a "hole" dug by the big-eyed doll, with the purpose of attracting him to go there and kill him.
As for No. 1818, it's not that easy to get into. After all, the big-eyed doll has the key there, so there's no way it could be the supernatural event in that room.
But you can't just look at the risk in everything. For some people, the amount of gain can completely make a person disregard his life, and Ji Li is one of them.
Compared to No. 1818, No. 6002 reported such a unique and strange situation in Big-Eyed Baby, which made Ji Li even more curious. In the end, the place he wanted to go to was 6002 on the 6th floor of the West Building.
After Ji Li made this plan, he glanced behind him and saw that there was a narrow staircase at the end.
The narrow staircase in the south building cannot pass the living people, only ghosts can escape.
There was no movement there at the moment, and there was no sound in the entire Yulao Street, except for the sound of the tip of the black umbrella hitting the hard concrete floor.
When passing by the middle of the north and west floors from the 14th floor, the elevator automatically started again and dropped rapidly along the 18th floor.
"Sure enough, whenever a ghost passes by the elevator, it will automatically greet him."
This reminded Ji Li of a small detail...
The big-eyed doll encountered a similar situation when passing by the elevator, and its reaction was even more intense and it avoided it.
People can't get information, but ghosts can. Their actions are also a way to get clues.
Apparently, the elevator is supposed to be related to the origins of Yu Lao Street, causing both humans and ghosts to avoid it.
However, after passing by for the second time, Ji Li had another, bolder conjecture in his mind - there was irrefutable evidence that ghosts were afraid of elevators, but there was no evidence that people should not board elevators.
So is there a possibility...
This elevator was originally designed for living people to ride on?
But there were too few clues at the moment, so Ji Li kept this matter in his mind for the time being. He went down the wide staircase in the east building and reached the 6th floor in a short time.
This distance and reflection took 2 minutes. During this period, Yulao Street was calm and there was no abnormality.
Ji Li was in the east building. He turned back and followed the corridor and looked at a closed door in the west building.
According to Clyde, No. 6002 was occupied by his ordinary clerk Pang Guijuan, who took care of an old man who was unable to take care of himself as a nanny.
This important incident is not among the seven supernatural legends. Likewise, Pang Guijuan is not a strange person. She is performing this mission more like a cannon fodder.
That's strange to say.
Ji Li was thinking in his mind as he walked towards No. 6002.
The special one may not be Pang Guijuan, or it may not be 6002. The reason why it is deliberately avoided by the big-eyed doll may be that something has happened that even this ghost cannot deal with.
No. 6002 is very ordinary, with some domestic garbage placed in front of the door, and an abandoned handrail for the elderly on the right side of the door. After Ji Li looked at the keyhole, he took out something like a telescope from his pocket and stuck it on the door mirror.
This is an anti-cat-eye device that allows people to see the scene inside the door from outside.
Most of the previous missions did not require such equipment, but for this Yulaojie mission, he brought two in advance.
Through the reverse peephole, he could see that the lights in No. 6002 were still on. It was an orange warm light spread in a large living room, and there were vague figures flashing across the floor.
No. 6002 is obviously much larger than the 14th floor, and the layout is also different.
But from the first glance, the situation inside seems to be quite peaceful, and I don't see anything related to death, let alone anything supernatural.
Ji Li withdrew his gaze, held the black umbrella in silence for a moment, raised the tip of the umbrella and knocked gently on the door. At the same time, he put the reverse cat's eye on again for observation.
There was no need to worry about identity issues at this time, he had to get in.
From the perspective of the vertical line of the reverse cat's eye, a woman holding slippers and cursing squeezed into the eye.
The woman was wearing an apron, her hair was tied up, revealing her face. She had thin lips and a cold face, slender eyebrows, slight dewlaps on her cheeks, and some wrinkles up close, indicating that she was no longer young.
Obviously this woman can only be the Pang Guijuan in Clyde's mouth, but looking at her mouth trembling up and down as she walked towards...
"She spoke!"
Ji Li frowned, and an uneasy feeling suddenly enveloped his heart, giving him the illusion that he wanted to turn around and leave.
In the back eyes, Pang Guijuan's hand was already on the door, her whole face was pressed against the door, and her grumpy curses could be faintly heard.
At the same time, the feeling of uneasiness grew stronger.
Ji Li didn't hesitate at all. He put away his cat eyes and left without any nostalgia.
When he had just taken two steps, the door of room 6002 opened, and a voice so rich that it was not like a woman sounded from behind:
"Who?"
"Looking for death."
Ji Li walked back without looking back. He was already sure that Pang Guijuan would definitely die, and it was hard to say whether she was already dead or on the verge of death.
"Are you store manager Ji?"
After still asking questions behind her, the woman saw Ji Li's figure and seemed to take a step forward.
Ji Li still didn't look back. The uneasiness in his heart was so strong that even the hand holding the black umbrella was trembling secretly, and his brain felt briefly dizzy.
Gray soul, ready to move.
When 6002 opened the door, it actually attracted the gray soul, which made Ji Li feel even more weird.
At the same time, he had just returned to the east building, but he saw another middle-aged woman with thin lips and a cold face appearing under the stairs, holding a red plastic bucket in her hand and looking at him in shock.
Another Pang Guijuan?
Ji Li turned around suddenly and saw Pang Guijuan, carrying slippers, standing at the top of the stairs, looking at him quietly with a pair of dead fish eyes.
Looking back, Pang Guijuan, who was carrying a plastic bucket on the stairs below, also changed her expression suddenly, from shock to deathly silence, looking at him quietly.
All the changes don't stop there.
In Ji Li's eyes, the wide staircase of the east building, the six-story corridor, and the gray building began to flicker in an instant.
A complex, obscure and mysterious red pattern blooms like flowers on Yulao Street.
The ground, walls, buildings, corridors, balconies...everywhere you look are densely packed with countless red patterns, which keep flickering strangely every time they breathe.
It seems that it is precisely because of their appearance that the gray soul feels a strong sense of crisis and automatically revives.
Ji Li held a black umbrella and stepped on the red-patterned stairs. He was flanked by two Pang Guijuan who were talking about death and survival. His face was extremely ugly.
It turned out that he should not have come to this room alone at this time, nor should he have let the door of this room open.
6002 really hides a huge change.
And Ji Li seemed to have opened Pandora's box and released the most terrifying curse.
