When Li was running wildly in the water, his ears were filled with Qiao Qiao's screams, the phone ringing like a ghost screaming, and the fierce impact of the water. Gradually, those voices faded from his world, leaving him alone. A gasping sound like a broken bellows.

"call" "call"

Li Zheng's tall and tall figure froze suddenly. When the phone rang for the first time tonight, wasn't that the voice on the other end?

The reason why it sounds vague and can't distinguish between men and women is because it is the overlapping breathing sound of many people running?

"Xiao Li, run—"

The girl's throat-wrenching cry pierced Li Zheng's eardrums, and he woke up instantly, gritting his teeth and speeding up.

On the second floor, Chen Yang stared at the direction of the service desk, the ringtone dragged his breathing slowly and heavily.

"It's too late." Brother Yu stared at the stopwatch on the phone, "It's about to hang up." His face was stiff, "It's too late."

Pan Lin's wide-open eyes were full of helplessness and panic: "What will happen to us if no one answers the phone?"

No one spoke.

This is unknown and anything could happen.

Pan Lin also realized this. He stood up with his hands and feet trembling, and walked up to Liu Liu tremblingly: "It's all your fault!"

"It's none of my business," Liu Liu said with a look of shit on his face, "Are you out of your mind too? How could it be that just because you didn't answer a call, everyone is going to die?"

"Even if you have to be punished, it's the person who went down to answer the phone but missed it." Liu Liu snorted.

Out of self-preservation, Pan Lin hoped that what Liu Liu said was true, but... Then Li Zheng was too unlucky.

"He took over. You replaced him." Pan Lin stared at him.

Liu Liu said, "I didn't ask him to replace me."

"You!" Pan Lin was shocked by his brazenness.

Liu Liu pushed Pan Lin away, and he walked away from the team by himself, and found a place not far or near to sit.

At the guardrail, Qiao Qiao closed his eyes and clasped his hands together, praying with trembling lips: "Please...please please..."

People around screamed, Qiao Qiao opened her red eyes a little, and saw Li Zheng lying in front of the service desk with his hands on the microphone, she was startled, and tears fell down suddenly.

Li Zheng received the call, spitting bubbles like fairy music, celebrating his escape from the dead, his muscles all over his body were wet with cold sweat and sea water, and he was convulsed, and he grabbed the edge of the service desk to avoid kneeling in the water .

"What's the voice on the phone?" Brother Yu asked anxiously from the second floor.

"Blu, blu." Li Zheng didn't dare to stay in the water. He always felt that something was approaching him. He hurried to the corridor, stepped up the stairs with a few strides, sat down, and gasped for breath. , the lungs are about to explode.

The sound of pedaling downstairs came from far to near, Li Zhenghou raised his head, a beam of light shone into his eyes, and his little fairy.

Qiao Qiao stood panting for a while, then knelt down to look at Li Zheng.

Li Zheng's wet chest heaved violently, and his nasal cavity was full of fishy smell.

"You have water on your face." Qiao Qiao said with a flashlight, "There is also water on your mouth."

Li Zheng's sanity recovered a little bit, he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and poohed a few times to one side.

"It's really fishy." Li Zheng picked up his shirt and smelled it, and then sniffed his hands after wiping the water.

Qiao Qiao said, "Sea water."

The last sound fell, and the corridor fell into silence.

The water was silent, and so were the two young men and women.

Li Zheng had just finished a sprint race, and the competitors were him and Death. He was running to death, and now he couldn't relax at all, and his overburdened calf muscles were still twitching.

And Qiao Qiao looked at the halo of the flashlight, her long eyelashes drooped down, covering her moist and bright eyes. Tired, blunt.

"Hiss." Li Zheng snorted in pain.

The flashlight's halo immediately moved from downstairs to Li Zheng, mixed with Qiao Qiao's nervous question: "What's wrong?"

"I hit my ribs." Li Zheng pretended to be pitiful and moaned.

It was inconvenient for Qiao Qiao to check the place, so she patted Li Zheng on the shoulder: "There is no danger."

"Yes, fortunately." Li Zheng exhaled with palpitations. In the life-and-death situation at that time, he was the only one in the entire team who could fight desperately.

In retrospect, Li Zhenghou was terribly afraid. If he died like this, he would take what he didn't say to the underworld. As soon as Naihe bridge was gone, and Po Meng drank the soup, the future and the past disappeared.

Li Zheng's heart hurt as if being grabbed, he suddenly said, "Qiao Qiao, I like you."

Qiao Qiao lowered his head slowly and looked at him without speaking.

"It's not like a buddy. I don't want to be your brother. I never want to." Li Zheng picked up the white skirt she dragged to the ground and whispered, "When you first came to Jingfeng, I liked it. is you."

Qiao Qiao still didn't speak.

"I know we are not from the same world. I am only tall, neither handsome nor rich, but I, I... I will work hard." Li Zheng hesitated, the more he spoke, the more confident he became. Kneeling on the stairs, like a knight of a princess, "Actually, I planned not to say anything for the rest of my life, but here I am..."

The continuation of life and death here, and the regret of being afraid of never having another chance, gave him courage.

"That's it, you can figure it out." Li Zheng showed a posture of "the knife is in your hand, you can do whatever you want".

Qiao Qiao pouted: "You talk a lot."

"Then what do you think..." Li Zheng was stunned for a few seconds, and carefully approached her.

In the dim halo, the girl didn't run away on the spot, nor taunted him in resistance, which made Li Zheng's heart burst into hope, which swelled wildly in an instant.

Qiao Qiao's soft lips moved slightly, wanting to say something.

"Wait, don't say it yet!" Li Zheng yelled as if someone was pinching him seven inches, "We got out alive, you can answer me later."

Qiao Qiao: "...Okay."

Li Zheng found that the atmosphere between him and Qiao Qiao was not awkward, it was still the same as usual.

I don't know whether to be happy or depressed.

Li Zheng went back to the second floor with Qiao Qiao, and when he saw Liu Liu's dead appearance that it had nothing to do with him, he raised his middle finger angrily.

Liu Liu wrapped her suit jacket as if nothing had happened, closed her eyes and curled up by the wall.

Others expressed concern for Li Zheng one after another, which gave him a sense of glory after winning a battle, but this feeling dissipated after a short time.

The clue of the phone call has not been penetrated, and the task has not been completed, so Li Zhengpiao can't get up.

"What are you doing with the phone calls in the middle of the night?" Mr. Zhang was puzzled, "It's all bubbling so many times, it's meaningless."

Brother Yu hesitated and said, "Could it be that we got the point wrong?"

"I suspect the point is not the bubbling sound, but something else?" He looked at the others.

"The point is not the sound of bubbling, what else could it be?" Pan Lin rolled up his notebook, "Water?"

"We touched each other when we answered the phone. It's okay." Pan Lin said to himself, "The water was drained, and nothing in the water appeared. After thinking about it, the only clue is the voice on the phone."

Brother Yu shook his head: "I still feel..."

He stopped talking halfway, and he seemed to be unable to figure out what was going on here.

Chen Yang looked at his phone, it was almost five o'clock, there was no difference between day and night in the building, the passage of time was just a simple change of numbers.

Tonight, everyone was disturbed by the phone and did not sleep well, and we don't know what will happen tomorrow.

Standing by the guardrail, Chen Yang looked down at the water flow without blinking. He was neither dizzy nor afraid of heights, but he still felt dizzy, so he pulled him back towards Jane.

"Don't stand too close, you will fall." Chao Jian said.

Chen Yang took a deep breath, suppressed the nausea, put one hand on his forehead, and a low-pitched voice sounded in his ear: "You have a fever."

"...Fever?" Chen Yang touched his head and neck, and tried his palm again, "It's okay."

Without any explanation, Chao Jian dragged him back to the glass wall and asked him to take off his wet shoes.

"Just dress like this." Chen Yang said, "I can't enter the company now, and I can't find shoes to wear. The ground is very wet, and bare feet are easy to slip."

Chao Jian took out the sports jacket she brought from home from her backpack.

Chen Yang watched Chao Jian throw the coat at his feet, and roughly wrapped his feet, he was dumbfounded: "No need to do this...just a cold." He felt distressed for such an expensive coat to bind his feet.

Without saying a word, Chao Jian bound his feet tightly.

"Ah-choo—" Chen Yang sneezed, and sprayed it on Jian's face.

"Wipe it off quickly, don't infect you..." Chen Yang hurriedly took out a tissue.

Chao Jian pressed his hand: "No, I'm fine with a cold, so don't make a fuss."

When Chen Yang heard this, he couldn't help but said, "I'm fine with a cold."

"Aren't you afraid of taking medicine?" Chao Jian said.

The moment Chen Yang heard it clearly, the flashlight was turned off by Chao Jian, and the outline of his face was obscured by the dim light, making it unclear.

"How do you know I'm afraid of taking medicine?" Chen Yang said strangely.

The back of Chao Jane's head was pressed against the cold wall, her voice sticking between her lips and teeth: "You said it in a dream."

Chen Yang said "Oh" in embarrassment.

"The company has cold medicine. I'll bring it to you when I go in tomorrow." Chao Jian's tone suddenly turned cold.

Chen Yang pretended to be dead.

Sneezing is contagious. When Chen Yang sneezed, there were several sounds in the corridor.

It is summer now, and the building surrounded by seawater is very wet and stuffy. In addition, their clothes are wet again, and they are wrinkled and stick to the skin, making it easy to get sick.

"I'm sure there won't be any more this time." Sister Wang smoothed out strands of wet hair, her fat face was full of exhaustion.

Pan Lin seemed to be dazzled by the Flag's banner, and he let out a strange cry: "Sister Wang, don't say that!"

Before the end of the last word hovered in the air, the phone at the service desk on the first floor rang.

The atmosphere in the corridor suddenly changed.

How come?

Is it over? !

"Jingle Bell"

The death-killing ghost was singing, and every sound was full of death and blood.

Chen Yang forgot that his feet were wrapped in a coat. When he got up, he didn't stand up and sat back. His corner of the eye passed over a few pairs of wet shoes inadvertently, and stopped.

Afterwards, Chen Yang returned his gaze, looked at those wet shoes one by one, counted them, and remembered something he had missed.

The number of times the phone rang plus this time was exactly twelve times.

twelve……

"This is the last time." Chen Yang heard his suppressed voice.

Brother Yu hurriedly said: "Then there must be important clues, who will go down?"

The team is now full of old, weak, sick and disabled, and the girls have limited physical strength and physical functions, so they can only run once, and cannot sprint again.

Li Zheng grinned: "Let me go."

When he said this, he returned Qiaoqiao's small stall to her, and his foot was a little unsteady.

Chen Yang said, "It can't be you."

Li Zheng thought that Chen Yang said this because he felt that he would not be able to run the third time, so he kicked his legs: "I will do my best..."

"The number of calls corresponds to our number of people, and everyone must go into the water to answer the calls." Chen Yang interrupted him.

Li Zheng paused for a moment: "Then..." Something flashed through his mind, and he turned to look for Liu Liu's figure.

There was an uproar in the team.

"There are still two people who didn't go down!" Pan Lin's voice was a little shrill because of panic.

The phone rang for the last time, but there were two people who didn't answer the phone. One was Liu Liu who refused to go down and was run away by Li Zheng before, and the other was a female white-collar worker who had never shown up.

This means that the two will fight for each other.

Liu Liu didn't expect that floor, he looked at the people in the corridor one by one: "So what if you don't go down."

"So what if you don't answer the phone?" Liu Liu is 1.7 meters tall, thin and can't hold up in business clothes. He looks like a child in adult clothes. When people become monsters, there are no taboos...why does everyone have to answer the phone? It's not necessary."

He couldn't believe it, but his hands and feet trembled uncontrollably.

"The number of calls corresponds to the number of people. If you don't answer, you will die." Pan Lin looked at Liu Liu and paused every word.

Liu Liu was so frightened that she wanted to curse.

Mr. Zhang pointed to his watch: "Xiao Liu, you don't have time to hesitate."

When Liu Liu came to his senses, he was already running in the corridor, but before he reached the stairs, he noticed something and looked back.

Everyone was looking downstairs, as if something had happened, their expressions were strange.

No, it doesn't seem, it's what happened!Liu Liu probed unconsciously, and the next moment he saw a figure standing at the service desk with the microphone in his hand.

It's that female white-collar worker!She came down from the third floor, and she answered the last call.

Liu Liu stared blankly with wide-eyed eyes, but he turned his head to look at everyone in a daze.

There was a deathly silence all around.

The mobile phone between Liu Liu's fingers fell to the ground, he touched himself tremblingly, pinched a few times, it's all right, he's all right.

"This really isn't a taboo, and one-on-one answering the phone doesn't mean..."

Liu Liu stopped suddenly, his mouth was still open, but he couldn't make a sound, his pupils began to tremble, and he wanted to call for help in fright.

But his body flew up.

In everyone's eyes, this scene was that someone stood opposite Liu Liu and pushed him down with his hand.

"Tom—"

A loud sound of water came from downstairs.

Liu Liu fell into the water on the first floor without even uttering a scream. The water level clearly did not reach his waist, but he seemed to be held down by something invisible, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't get up.

"wow" "pop"

Liu Liu kept splashing in the water.

Immediately afterwards, everyone on the second floor heard the sound of bubbling.

very loud.

The sound seemed to be amplified many times and sent to their ears simultaneously.

In other words, they were also in the water, right next to Liu Liu, listening to him spit bubbles.

The weird scene didn't last long, and Liu Liu sank to the bottom of the water.

The surface of the water returned to calm.

"Team task, this is a team task." Brother Yu shook his hand and lit his cigarette, speaking incoherently, "I told you, no one can stay out of it, he won't listen."

Li Zheng murmured: "It's not my fault."

"It's not your fault." Mr. Zhang said, "It's his own fault."

"Almost killed us." Sister Wang would not sympathize with Liu Liu, she was only afraid and powerless about the mission rules, "If Xiao Li hadn't desperately picked up that call at the last moment, no one would know what would have happened. "

Seeing Qiao Qiao approaching, Li Zheng grabbed her hand tightly like a revolutionary comrade.

Qiao Qiao couldn't speak comforting words, his hands hurt.

No one noticed that Pan Lin burst into tears. He walked around the gate of hell and cried in fright.

Fortunately, when he asked Zheng Zhitan to knock him out tonight, the other party didn't do that, otherwise he would be finished.

Pan Lin looked at the man who was swallowing the clouds, and he saved his life again.

"Gold masters don't have feelings for pets." Pan Lin said silently several times in his heart, bit the tip of his tongue to wake himself up, and walked towards Zheng Zhitan step by step, walking into the pungent smoke.

"Brother Tan, thank you." Pan Lin said in a low voice.

Zheng Zhiqin pinched the back of his neck with a cigarette in his hand: "Thank me for what?"

Pan Lin didn't comment on Zheng Zhitan's knowingly asking. He lowered his head obediently, letting the other party rub the skin on the back of his neck sorely. "You are so kind to me." Pan Lin said.

Pan Lin heard the man's seemingly gentle laugh. He didn't see the man's expression, but he could imagine that it was cold and cold.

Chen Yang stared at the woman at the service desk. From the moment Liu Liu fell to her death, she stood in place the whole time, neither moving nor screaming.

Scared too much, the brain is wooden.

"Half of it is a monster!" The woman tilted her head back, opened her mouth wide, and let out a sharp cry from her throat, "Half!"

That cry sounded numb to the scalp, like a chicken being strangled by the neck and smashed to the ground, with blood splattered and dying.

Li Zheng shrank to Qiao Qiao's side: "Grass, I'm scared to death."

Pan Lin was also startled. He hugged Zheng Zhitan's waist: "That's it again, every time she appears, she says, what are you doing, have you been brainwashed by monsters?"

Mr. Zhang was a little worried about the petite young woman: "Why did you forget that lunatic?"

Brother Yu took a deep puff of his cigarette, and the white mist covered his face. He said softly, "She's still in the water, aren't you afraid?"

"I'm too scared, I forgot to run." Sister Wang said with reddened eyes, "She's really lucky."

"..."

Chen Yang listened to everyone's complaints, followed the woman with his eyes, and returned to the wall until he could no longer see her.

When binding her feet, Chen Yang's movements suddenly stopped, she didn't have a work permit around her neck!

Chen Yang licked his dry lips, the woman's only colleague was one of the two Aries, that is, the second deceased, no one knows her now.

I don't know her name, if I meet again tomorrow, I have to find a way to talk to her.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" the mute walked to Chen Yang's side and gave him a small unicorn ice pack.

Chen Yang took it over and touched it. It was cool, and he put it on his face and said, "Thank you sister."

The mute saw that he could use it, and his small eyes were bent.

Chen Yang watched the little mute go back to his original seat and sat down. He looked down at the ice pack, then rubbed it on the other side of his face, sighing comfortably from his burning throat.

There were coughing sounds on the left and right, and it was a little messy. Chen Yang was not the only one who caught a cold, and germs were flying in the air.

Chen Yang leaned against the wall to rest in a daze, and threw away the small bag that was no longer iced in a daze.

In the next second, there was a touch of coolness in Chen Yang's palm, and he instinctively grabbed it and stuffed it into his arms.

With insufficient clothes, Chen Yang pressed the thing into his neck.

The thing froze for a moment, then moved wildly again, moving around his collarbone like a snake.

itchy.Chen Yang's eyelids seemed to be on fire as well, his eyeballs were so hot that he couldn't wake up.

After a while, the thing was warmed by Chen Yang, and it was not cold at all, so he threw it away in dissatisfaction.

Seeing Chen Yang muttering and fumbling for the small ice pack, Chao Jian twitched his cheeks, kicked the thing away, then put his hand on the wall, and stretched it out when it was cold, allowing Chen Yang to scratch and rub it.

Chen Yang warmed the thing up and threw it away, and it returned to his arms after a while.

Always ice cold.

At around 40:[-] in the morning, the monster hadn't gone to work yet, and everyone dispersed in a state of depression, doing their own activities.

Chen Yang had a fever and was sweating all over, his body was already smelly, he couldn't smell it himself, his nose was stuffy.

Chao Jian's keen sense of smell is the same as death.

There are vending machines on the first and third floors of Building A3. There is water on the first floor, and the third floor is the only choice for everyone.

Chen Yang pressed a can of eight-treasure porridge from the vending machine, and ate it sparingly. He ate a third of it and stopped eating.

The eight-treasure porridge was neither rancid nor bad, it was simply that he had no appetite and his tongue was bitter.

Chao Jian took most of the can of eight-treasure porridge, and ate the leftover eight-treasure porridge with the spoon Chen Yang had eaten.

Chen Yang drank a few sips of water, licked his chapped lips, and traced the context of this mission.

At the same time, Brother Yu passed by the garbage room on the second floor, and he glanced casually. The two large garbage cans inside were already full and collapsed.

Brother Yu pinched his nose unbearably, he was about to turn his face away when he suddenly froze.

"Ok?"

Brother Yu walked a few steps closer to the trash room, and when he saw something in the trash dump, his eyeballs were about to pop out.

"It's Mr. Zhang's tie!"

how come?Brother Yu swallowed his saliva forcefully. Mr. Zhang has been wearing that tie all the time. It was still hanging under the collar of his shirt just now. How could it be buried in the trash now?

"And it's already dirty and broken." It seems to have been thrown here a long time ago.

"Then Mr. Zhang, whom I saw these two days..." Thinking of this, Brother Yu's hairs stood on end.

Brother Yu ran into the trash room, picked up his tie and ran away. He wanted to tell everyone about this without delay.

"Xiao Yu? Why are you running?"

A male voice sounded behind him. Hearing this voice, he couldn't help but feel chills.

It's Mr. Zhang!

Brother Yu reacted quickly, he quickly rolled up his tie and stuffed it into his pocket before turning around.

"Ah! I...I..."

Brother Yu wanted to think of an excuse, but he was stunned. He was terrified. He saw Mr. Zhang wearing that... exactly the same tie as behind him!

Brother Yu was terrified, he turned around and ran away, not caring what Mr. Zhang called him from behind.

Li Zheng met Brother Yu in the corridor, he was startled: "What are you doing?"

As soon as Brother Yu paused, Mr. Zhang caught up.

The atmosphere is eerie.

Li Zheng distanced himself from them warily, squeezed the flashlight tightly: "What's going on?"

Mr. Zhang was at a loss: "I don't know, I still want to ask."

Both of them stared at Brother Yu.

But Brother Yu approached Li Zhengna. He looked at Mr. Zhang vigilantly and said about the tie.

Mr. Zhang looked puzzled: "That's it?"

"Just because of this, you suspect that I'm a monster?" Mr. Zhang tugged at his tie. "I like this style, so I ordered three at once. If one is broken, the other one will be put in the company's drawer." His There was no panic in his words, and he looked at Brother Yu as if he was looking at a psychopath.

Brother Yu's vigilance and doubts did not decrease by half.

Li Zhengxin believed Mr. Zhang. He felt that Brother Yu had misunderstood. The boss’s tie was custom-made. Mr. Zhang will know if he goes to his company to have a look."

Brother Yu's face was pale.

The light from Li Zheng's flashlight was very blurry and could be extinguished at any time.

"It's over, the battery is out, whoever has a battery, give me one." Li Zheng picked up the flashlight.

Mr. Zhang had it, but he didn't want to show it, so he lied.

Brother Yu doesn't have a flashlight, only a mobile phone, so he can't help.

Li Zheng switched on the flashlight, and just as he was about to say something, he heard Qiao Qiao calling him.

"Why don't we go up first?" Li Zheng wished he could fly to the little fairy immediately, he looked at Brother Yu and Mr. Zhang who were in a stalemate, and suggested.

Mr. Zhang said, "I'll have a few words with Xiao Yu."

Li Zheng looked at Brother Yu and saw that the other party nodded to him. He was not as panicked and uneasy as before. He seemed to know that there was a misunderstanding, so he left first.

"Brother Yu!" Mr. Zhang sneered, "You are interesting!"

"You..." Brother Yu's tone faltered.

Mr. Zhang approached Brother Yu two steps closer, and stared at him: "You observe carefully, we have only been together for two days, and you can recognize my tie."

"There's a logo under your tie, it's your company's logo, everyone can remember it." Brother Yu said awkwardly.

"Really? Since you know so much, then you know..." Mr. Zhang paused, and said slowly, "Who is that person lying at the door of the women's toilet on the second floor this morning?"

"Did you see it?" Brother Yu suddenly panicked.

"Yes, I saw it." Mr. Zhang said contemptuously, "And he saw it very clearly."

Mr. Zhang was very angry, he just threw a tie, and Brother Yu insisted that he was transformed by a monster, and said it in front of his teammates.

I don't even think about what kind of character I am.

The more Mr. Zhang thinks about it, the more he gets annoyed. What time is it now? This guy actually wants to spy on women. Fortunately, he still has the idea that the other party is good in all aspects of life. Conceal it and don't reveal it to the outside world.

"Guess, will I expose that pervert?" Boss Zhang pressed on every step of the way.

"You..." After hearing what he said, Brother Yu took two steps back in fright.

The two beams of light in the corridor are scattered, one hits the wall beside the stairs, and the other hits in front of him.

"You...you really saw it?" Brother Yu hesitated.

"I see," Mr. Zhang asked contemptuously, "isn't it you?"

Brother Yu didn't speak anymore, he just lowered his head so low that he couldn't see his face.

"Scared? Don't talk?" Mr. Zhang raised his flashlight up, feeling a little uneasy for no reason.

Brother Yu still kept his head down and kept silent. After a long time, he slowly said, "It's good if you see it."

Mr. Zhang was taken aback. He felt that Brother Yu's voice was low and muffled, as if it came from a muffled drum, with a strange sense of ambiguity.

"Anyway, it's your turn." Brother Yu's tone didn't fluctuate, it was flat like a straight line, which made Mr. Zhang very uncomfortable, and he couldn't hear what the other party said clearly.

"How do you..."

Zhang Zong just wanted to ask, when he saw Brother Yu finally raised his head slowly, he was immediately frightened out of his wits.

Brother Yu's face was gone, only countless holes were left, and each hole sucked in one by one, as if he was breathing.

The liquid seeping out of the hole soaked his collar.

"It's your turn anyway."

The monster similar to Brother Yu shook its body and made a muffled sound again.

It was still Brother Yu's voice, but it didn't seem to come from his throat.

Mr. Zhang was so frightened that his mind went blank. The fact that Brother Yu was a monster was completely beyond his expectation. It took him a long time to remember to call for help.

But when he was about to shout, Brother Yu's neck suddenly flung out, and his face full of holes distorted and swelled rapidly, like a big suction cup, it sucked firmly on Mr. Zhang's entire face.

"Ugh..."

Mr. Zhang hummed twice, but could no longer make a sound.
