Two minutes ago, Jones was sweating profusely as he clutched the candle in his hand.
The swaying firelight danced in the darkness, casting shadows on the mottled work.
He quickly shuttled through the long corridor, each step stepping on the thick dust, making a dull echo.
It was too late to consider whether making such a loud noise would attract dangerous creatures. If he could not find the security guard, his life would be in danger.
Finally, he stopped at the door of a room.
The door was ajar, letting out a faint light.
Jones took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to push open the door.
In the room, a figure sat at the old table. It was the security guard he had been looking for for a long time.
This man was wearing a shabby security uniform, his hair was messed up, he looked very old, and his figure was already stooped.
Jones was certain that his face did not appear on the duty list on the security wall.
Isn't this a security guard played by a psychopath, or what?
But at this moment, the security guard was lowering his head and sharpening a sharp knife. The "rustling" sound of sharpening the knife seemed particularly harsh in the silent night.
Seeing this scene, Jones' heart tightened suddenly and he began to panic.
Don’t you mean to find the security guard played by a psychopath, and the psychotic security guard will take care of his own safety for a period of time?
Looking at it like this, it seems that this psychotic security guard is more dangerous than the real security guard just now.
The hope that I would be protected gradually began to fade.
Jones's feet have moved to the door, ready to leave at any time.
When the mentally ill security guard noticed someone opening the door, he stopped sharpening his knife and stared at Jones. The two just looked at each other.
Jones began to observe the psychopathic security guard himself to determine the combat effectiveness of both parties.
I saw a strange vitality hidden under the other party's old and wrinkled skin.
Although his figure is stooped, every movement appears powerful and decisive.
Especially those eyes, although they are deeply sunk in wrinkles, they sparkle with a strange light.
Standing there, Jones felt an invisible pressure coming from all directions.
The results of the combat effectiveness judgment came out quickly. He was definitely no match for this psychotic security guard.
In fact, there is no need to judge, this is an obvious fact.
The reason why Jones thought so just now was because he had noticed strange movements in the corridor.
It's death when you go out, and you're death when you're inside. He keeps tabs on who he beats.
After a long time, it was a dead end wherever I went.
The mentally ill security guard stood up suddenly. Jones was so frightened that he jumped back and hit the wall behind him.
There was a solid collision sound between the back of his head and the wall, causing him to take a painful breath.
He tried to speak, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't make any sound.
He could only stand there and watch the mentally ill security guard carrying a knife walk over.
And the weird atmosphere became more and more intense, as if it was about to swallow him up.
When the psychotic security guard walked nearby, Jones breathed a sigh of relief.
Because the mentally ill security guard just wanted to close the door and had no intention of killing him.
This proved that Jones had found the right person and it was a false alarm.
The mentally ill security guard didn't seem like a talkative person. Jones thought he might have a stutter. After all, Jones had seen mental illness and had some speech problems.
So Jones said while signing, "Hello, I'm the doctor here. I don't mean any harm, I just want to hide here with you for a while, just for a while."
Needless to say, Jones was quite polite and tried to speak in a more humble manner.
In doing so, we try our best to make the other party feel that they are not in too much danger.
As an ordinary chosen one, these are all ‘instinct’ things.
So everyone can also see that in the world of ghost stories, most of the chosen ones speak eloquently and their tone is very polite.
Only Zhang Yangqing's tone and attitude were more 'bad'. After all, he really didn't regard himself as an outsider. But even if Jones said this, the mentally ill security guard still had no intention of answering him, and just made a 'shut up' gesture.
Just when Jones thought he had made a mistake, there were some strange movements in the corridor of the abandoned mental hospital.
It sounded like a baby's cry, mixed with the squirming sound of a giant thing.
The harsh, sticky feeling makes people feel uncomfortable all over.
Especially when this sound passed by the gate, Jones didn't dare to breathe too loudly.
When the sound went away, Jones breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this time, the "rustling" sound of sharpening a knife appeared, and the mentally ill security guard was sharpening the knife again.
Only then did Jones realize that the psychotic security guard was not refusing to talk to him, but that the psychotic security guard knew that what was coming was dangerous.
After a moment of silence, the mentally ill security guard sharpened his knife and said, "It's very dangerous here. Even if you are a doctor, you shouldn't come."
Jones complained crazily in his heart, do you think I want to come? ah! I wouldn't have come if the expert group hadn't insisted on coming.
But now that I’m here, I still have to play my role properly.
Jones was still smiling, and the two chatted for a while, at least getting to know each other.
Then Jones felt that the time was right and was about to inquire about some information, so he suddenly said: "Why are you sharpening your knife here late at night? Don't you look scary?"
The mentally ill security guard was stunned for a moment and even stopped. He sharpened the knife, then glanced at Jones and said: "You have it in your hand at night He was carrying an axe, and a saw on his waist, and if I read it correctly, you should have used it before. It smelled of blood. I was just sharpening the knife in my room. Do you think you are scaring me, or am I scaring you? "
Jones: "."
Jones can't do this.
What the old man said seemed to make sense, and it was so well-founded that no one could refute it.
If he is in a room and a man suddenly comes in with an axe, and the ax is freshly stained with blood, who wouldn't be afraid?
No wonder the real security guard didn't dare to act rashly when he saw him. Instead, he looked at each other. It turned out to be this.
Kai Tan World is really particular about giving itself these props.
Jones began to wonder, compared to the two guys he saw earlier, this old man didn't seem to be mentally ill.
In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Jones inserted the ax in his hand behind his waist and acted as harmlessly as possible.
After finishing his appearance, Jones said: "Comrade Security, what's going on in this hospital, and where do the weird things outside come from?"
This sentence seems to have touched the 'main process', the mentally ill security guard Let’s start by introducing some things here.
After all, he is mentally ill and doesn’t know much.
According to him, this was once a mental hospital.
But the prisoners are all mental patients with special abilities.
This is to prevent them from losing control in the outside world and causing immeasurable consequences.
In other words, this place is an alternative detention place.
Later, some other types of 'mental patients' came here. These people were actually either mentally ill or criminals with special abilities.
The reason why they came to this place was that it was dangerous, but not fatal.
So find a way to make them lose their special abilities. As long as the special abilities are eliminated and they perform well, they can be released.
In theory, this way they won't cause harm to the outside world.
According to the news that the mentally ill security guard was unreliable, he recalled that when he was working as a 'security guard', he seemed to have seen a person who had been let out and then came back.
Because the mental security guard said that his memory was confusing and he was not sure, something strange happened in the mental hospital. Many people began to mutate and became what they are now.
This is all the information Jones has obtained.
As the chosen one, Jones will definitely make a series of speculations about the current situation.
There should be two possibilities for why the abandoned mental hospital caused the current situation.
