Chapter 1346: Throwing himself into a trap
No longer hesitating, he found the stairs and rushed upstairs quickly. The corridor still looked familiar to him, with the overhead lights emitting soft light. Everything was so harmonious and normal.
But the more this happened, the uneasiness in Jiang Cheng's heart became more intense. He found the room where he and Fatty were staying, took a deep breath, and pressed the doorknob. There was a slight knocking sound, which made him A surprising scene appeared to him. The door was actually unlocked.
The door slowly opened, and the scene in the room appeared in front of him. Two messy single beds were exposed, with quilts and other things piled aside. There was a slight smell of alcohol in the air, and they were all alone on the ground. Holding several beer cans.
The scene in front of him was exactly the same as the room in Jiang Cheng's memory. It was so far away that he could even remember which beer can was empty and which one still had wine left in it.
Of course, as he saw, there was no one in the room, let alone himself who was sleeping soundly as he expected.
Suddenly, Jiang Cheng panicked. He quickly exited the room and came to the door of the next door. This was room No. 2 and No. 13, but this time the door was not opened directly and the room was locked.
The dimmed eyes lit up, as if he had grasped the last straw, Jiang Cheng raised his leg without hesitation and kicked the door hard. How could the old wooden door withstand this blow? , opened in response, Jiang Cheng rushed in, but the scene in the room made him feel complicated.
This room was messier than theirs. Empty wine bottles were lined up beside the bed. It seemed that the people who had lived here were in a messier mood than he and the fat man. Likewise, the room was empty. one person.
No one.
Both rooms were empty.
At this moment, the persistence in Jiang Cheng's heart wavered, and he felt panic for the first time. Maybe... maybe he was wrong, wrong from the beginning, and that mysterious black shadow was the culprit!
The visions on Fatty, Luo Yunshan and the others were all fake. He was indeed troubled by the illusion, but it was not Fatty Luo Yunshan and the others who cast the illusion, but the shadow!
It was the dark shadow that made him suspect Fatty Luo Yunshan and others, and based on these suspicions, he lured him step by step, and the other party's purpose was to get him back to this Hengtong Hotel!
In an instant, a storm surged in Jiang Cheng's mind, but before he could think about it, at the same time, there was a sudden rush of footsteps downstairs. The footsteps moved quickly and rushed up the stairs.
Jiang Cheng turned around and ran out of the room. In the corridor, he happened to see Fatty and others appearing at the end of the corridor.
At this time, Fatty and others were in a very embarrassed state. Their bodies were covered with black ashes and their faces were dirty. I thought it was caused by the fire just now, but the moment they saw Jiang Cheng, the look in Fatty’s eyes It lit up and asked in a puzzled tone: "Doctor, doctor, what's wrong with you?" ? They said you set the fire, how could you..."
Jiang Cheng didn't answer, and there was nothing to hide this time. He took out his phone and took pictures of Fatty and others. I took a photo. In the photo, whether it is the fat man, Luo Yunshan, No. 2, or No. 13, they are all normal.
After putting down his cell phone, facing Fatty’s eyes, Jiang Cheng felt mixed emotions. Because of his own error in judgment, the entire team suffered losses and the plan to enter the mountain was also delayed. The resulting The chain reaction is terrible and may even endanger the lives of Lin Waner and others.
If... if all they found after entering the mountain were the bodies of Lin Waner and others, then Jiang Cheng might not be able to forgive himself in this life.
"Crunch——"
Just when Jiang Cheng was regretting, suddenly, there was a friction sound behind him. The sound was familiar and harsh, and it sounded like sharp nails scratching.
The feeling of his heart rising in his throat, the friction sound, and the feeling of being watched, Jiang Cheng knew that the black figure had appeared again, standing behind him at this moment.
Was it my fault after all...
After all the hard work, I ended up falling into a trap.
Now, it was time for the other party to close the net. Jiang Cheng could foresee that soon, the nails sharp enough to leave scratches on the glass would pierce his chest and take away his life.
At this moment, he calmed down. The past scenes played in his mind like a slide show. Between life and death, and painful choices, he was already exhausted physically and mentally. Maybe dying here is a good choice, and leaving the rest of the way to others to continue walking.
Fat Man and the others also looked beyond Jiang Cheng and behind him, their eyes full of vigilance and fear. No. 2 directly put on a defensive posture and stood in front of everyone.
"Doctor, please...don't look back." The fat man's nervous voice changed, and his pupils trembled, "Don't be afraid, come over, come over slowly...walk over slowly."
< br>"Believe me, nothing... nothing will happen." The fat man continued.
"Crunch——"
"Crunch——"
Jiang Cheng counted silently in his heart. The other party still hit him three times this time. The intention of those three scratches was completely unguessable. , it was already difficult to leave. Jiang Cheng was waiting for the black shadow to make the first move, but after waiting for a long time, the other party did not hurt him.
Slowly, Jiang Cheng also noticed something was wrong. The fat man was still urging him to come over, but he refused to take a step forward to pick him up.
It was as if there was an invisible barrier in front of them, which they did not dare to cross at all.
He had a feeling that Fatty and the others were also afraid of the dark shadow behind him, but in his impression, although Fatty talked a lot, he could still speak clearly at critical moments, and would never disrupt him by chattering on such occasions. own ideas.
Perhaps seeing Jiang Cheng's hesitation, Fatty immediately changed his attitude and played the emotional card with Jiang Cheng.
As the doubts deepened, although Jiang Cheng did not look back, his eyes slowly swept over the fat man and his group. The more he looked, the more something was wrong. There was something indescribably wrong. There was an indescribable stiffness in the expressions of these people. , this may be the shadow behind him affecting him, of course, it may also be the fat man's own problem.
In just a few seconds, Jiang Cheng recalled many things. Last night, when the mysterious black shadow appeared in the bathroom, the fat man outside had obviously noticed something strange. At that time, the fat man’s choice was Stand still and secretly call No. 2 and No. 13 for support.
This choice is very correct, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best solution, but the problem is that the people outside are fat people, and the people inside are themselves.
According to my understanding of Fatty, it is true that Fatty would call No. 2 and No. 13 for support immediately, but he would rush in to save him before No. 2 and No. 13 arrived. After all, for every extra second, he would have to bear a burden. A second's risk, and a real fat man won't think in such detail, he just hopes that nothing will happen to him. (End of this chapter)
