Chapter 851 The Road to Survival
Lin Muyun's face paused when he heard this, and he didn't react for a moment. He first looked at the stairs leading down, then looked at Xia Qiang, and asked in a confused tone: "Captain Xia, we. Want to escape upward? "
Everyone can see that when the murderer is chasing him, running upward is a dead end, and he will be found sooner or later.
Fleeing downwards, there is still a glimmer of hope.
But Xia Qiang convinced Lin Muyun with just one sentence, "Mr. Lin, what we can think of may not be thought of by the murderer."
During Xia Qiang's mission experience, he gradually realized that ghosts represent the ultimate in madness and evil intentions, but this does not mean that they are stupid. On the contrary, most of them are more cunning than humans.
The only thing that can limit them are rules.
Just like not long ago, Jiangcheng Lin Muwan and a group of people directly ran into the murderer, but due to the rules, the murderer could not attack them, and the two of them saved their lives.
Xia Qiang and Lin Muyun stepped onto the upward stairs, and their figures quickly disappeared into the mist.
Shortly after they left, a gust of wind blew inexplicably in the safe passage. The wind was not too strong and slightly disturbed the surrounding fog.
Just at the corner of the stairs leading down, the mist was blown away by the wind, and a pair of black leather boots suddenly appeared.
The leather boots were as big as small boats, tightly held together and motionless.
It seems like I have been standing there for a while.
"Where are we going now?" Lin Muyun asked in a low voice. It was very quiet nearby. He did not dare to speak loudly for fear of drawing something out of the mist.
Oddly enough, after looking at the fog for a long time, he actually felt that there were other things in the fog besides the murderer.
It was a very strange feeling, and he couldn't explain the reason.
Xia Qiang stopped. They were standing next to a corner. There were three roads in front of them, one in front and one on the left and right.
The environment here is similar to that downstairs. They are both a company, with three roads leading to three office areas.
The last time he came, he observed the nearby environment. The area to the left was relatively small, and the area to the front was mostly the offices of supervisors, each of which was an independent office. Not conducive to hiding.
After all, Xia Qiang also had his own considerations. Choosing to go upstairs was also a big gamble. The bet was that the murderer would not be able to find him before the rain stopped, and he needed to deal with it to buy enough time.
Obviously, the two roads ahead and on the left do not meet the conditions for hiding.
On the right side, Xia Qiang's frown slowly relaxed. The right side was pretty good, leading to an office area that was almost the same as downstairs, the same office area where they woke up.
The area is large enough, and the layout inside is relatively complex. If you use it well, you will have the opportunity to deal with the murderer.
More importantly, this office area has large glass windows, so you can observe the intensity of the rain outside at any time, so as to judge when the task will end.
No longer hesitating, Xia Qiang took Lin Muyun and started walking along the road on the right.
Their steps were so gentle that they made almost no sound.
The surrounding fog became thicker and thicker, which gave Xia Qiang a very bad premonition.
After some time, Xia Qiang suddenly stopped, which made Lin Muyun behind him immediately nervous, "What happened?" He asked in a very low voice.
Xia Qiang slowly turned around and looked in the direction they came from. It was also shrouded in fog and the visibility was getting worse. Now they could only see about two meters in front and back.
Lin Muyun didn't have much experience, and he had just arrived in a place like this and was not used to it yet, so it was normal that he didn't notice it, but Xia Qiang did.
There's something wrong with the path they're taking.
This road is too straight.
After walking for so long, I didn’t come across an intersection or a place where I could turn.
According to the layout of this building, this is absolutely impossible.
And whether this road is too long, according to Xia Qiang's estimation, they should be standing in the office area.
But now, they didn't even see the door.
What's going on?
A ghost beating a wall?
Another phenomenon occurred that they could not understand.
Xia Qiang’s face turned ugly, because no matter what, one thing was certain.
The murderer has already found them.
Now, right next to them.
Suppressing the panic in his heart, Xia Qiang showed an extraordinary calmness and integrated all these clues together in his mind.
We must separate, maybe this is the only way to survive.
If his guess is good.
"Master Lin." Xia Qiang said, and his tone made Lin Muyun beside him stunned.
"Xia"
As soon as Lin Muyun opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Xia Qiang, "Master Lin, listen to me. Now, leave me and take a few steps forward. Don't leave." Far, maybe 3 or 4 steps is enough. Let me see your back."
Feeling Xia Qiang's tone, Lin Muyun didn't say a word, and immediately left him as he said, and took 3 steps forward, leaving only one person in the mist. A blurry figure appeared on his back.
Lin Muyun’s back was very clean, and it didn’t look like there was someone standing behind him.
Suddenly, Xia Qiang noticed that Lin Muyun's shoulders were shaking slightly, "Captain Xia, I can see the road. Just ahead, about 5 or 6 meters away, there is a door, which is their office area and the one downstairs. Almost.”
Sure enough!
Xia Qiang let out a breath, the person being targeted was himself.
Lin Muyun left his own range and immediately saw the real road.
If nothing else, the murderer is standing behind him now.
Maybe he was waiting for the opportunity, or maybe there were other reasons, but none of these mattered to him.
He only had one idea now, how to let Lin Muyun leave safely before he was killed.
"Can you see the road ahead clearly?" Xia Qiang stood motionless, not wanting to anger the murderer and worsen the situation.
“You can see it clearly, it should be true.” Lin Muyun spoke quickly and seemed very excited, “Captain Xia, we are out.”
He was about to turn around as he said that, but Xia Qiang immediately stopped him, "Don't look back!" Xia Qiang snapped.
Lin Muyun's body trembled, but he actually didn't turn around. "Captain Xia, what did you find?" Lin Muyun didn't know what was going on, and his tone was panicked.
Although he knew that he might die in the next second, Xia Qiang still tried his best to say in a calm tone: "We are all targeted by the murderer, but now we don't know who is targeted, so I suggest that we walk separately.”
“You keep walking forward and I walk backward, so that even if something happens, At least one of them can live without hurting the other person."
Xia Qiang didn't give Lin Muyun a chance to speak, and then said: "Okay, let's take action now." After a pause, he finally said. He said: "I wish you good luck, Lin Muyun." (End of Chapter)
