sunset escape

Although Xiang Jiayun's steel hammer was accidentally lost, fortunately, he took down the climbing rope in advance and kept it in the car.

Using climbing ropes, they entered through the hole in the wall of the second floor and slid down to the first floor.

The elevator shaft was dark, and the natural light coming in through the hole in the wall was quickly swallowed up. From below, it looked more like a moon.

Xiang Jiayun's feet landed on the top of the elevator car, and then he let go of the climbing rope.He Chen went down one step ahead of him, and he could feel that the other party was standing beside him at this moment, and the sound of breathing was close at hand.

"Are you standing still?" He Chen asked him in a low voice.

Xiang Jiayun looked in the direction of the voice, subconsciously nodded and replied, "Stand firm."

Darkness easily breeds grotesque imaginations.

He couldn't control his fantasy, as if instead of the walls of the elevator shaft, he was surrounded by an endless corner of the universe.

"Stand still and don't turn on the flashlight. I'll open the elevator door first." He Chen instructed.

Holding a flashlight from the shopping mall in his hand, Xiang Jiayun gave a soft answer as an answer.

There are more than one floor underground, and the elevator is stopping at the height of the second floor, revealing the landing door of the first floor, just above them, a position that can be reached by raising your hand.

In the darkness, he heard the person beside him take two steps forward, and then the landing door made a soft knock.

What will be inside?Experimental waste, biochemical waste, a whole floor of corpses, or densely packed zombies?

He reached for the ax pinned to his waist with his other hand, and gripped the handle tightly.

The elevator door was still making slight noises, it was He Chen opening the gap little by little.But obviously, the inside was also dark, and he couldn't see the so-called gap at all.

It wasn't until the sound stopped that Xiang Jiayun stretched out his hand to touch Teacher He's arm, and then traced his fingertips along the warm and strong forearm to the dry and strong palm.

He didn't dare to make a sound at will, so he turned over Teacher He's palm and wrote on the other's palm.

——I, first, enter, go, you, break, last

As soon as the last word was written, He Chen grabbed his finger violently.Teacher He's palm slid to his wrist, pushed him back slightly, and then snatched the flashlight while he was not paying attention.

Xiang Jiayun was distracted for a moment because of the touch of his hand, and then lost the initiative in an instant.

He noticed that He Chen climbed up to the ground of the first floor, and the top of the car made a slight noise due to the sudden weight loss.He wanted to yell loudly to stop the other party from rushing in, but he could only trap the anxious words in his throat.

Xiang Jiayun rushed to the door, raised his head and tried to find He Chen's figure, and at least grabbed a corner of his clothes.But there was nothing but darkness in front of him, and he couldn't do anything.

He raised his hand to touch the ground, and his heart sank, and he immediately planned to climb up too.But before he could exert any force, a light wind suddenly came from above, and the quiet air flow was disturbed by some movement.

Something leaned over and stuck to his ear.

Xiang Jiayun's heart trembled, he had already touched the axe, but He Chen's voice suddenly came from his ear, it was so soft that it couldn't be softer.

"Come up when the lights are on."

Menacing mental preparations were suddenly useless, Xiang Jiayun touched his ears, always feeling a little hot.

The airflow was stirred again, this time it was He Chen who left.

He looked at the nothingness in front of him, hesitant in his heart.Do you want to listen to Teacher He, or go up now and walk side by side with Teacher He.

Since He Chen left, there has been no sound, whether it is the sound of footsteps or the sound of bumping into other things.

Every second was like being roasted on the fire. Xiang Jiayun didn't wait long, and turned up on the ground of the first floor.

It landed lightly, without making any movement.

Xiang Jiayun stood firm, but didn't know which direction to go.If the structure of this floor is the same as other floors, then there should be a horizontal corridor in front of the elevator, and a wall five steps ahead of him.

Just use this wall as a reference.

After he decided, he took a step.One step, two steps, three steps, four steps... and finally the fifth step.

arrive.Xiang Jiayun stood still and reached out to touch the wall.But contrary to his expectations, he didn't touch anything.

what happened?

He even took a step forward and still didn't touch anything.

After a short thought, he lowered his arm.It seems that this place has a completely different structure from the floors above ground.

Teacher He should have also noticed this problem, but there is no doubt that the other party has adapted well, and it is estimated that he has already rushed to the depths of the floor by now.

Xiang Jiayun gradually got used to this dark and quiet environment, and her inner anxiety subsided a little.

If there are zombies here, then according to the characteristics of the zombies' activities, there must be some movement.If there are strange experimental objects and corpses parked there, they can't be regarded as living creatures, and there is not much danger.

It's just that he doesn't know the research institute yet, and it's hard to guess how insane these people are researching on weekdays, so he still can't take it lightly.

A lot of thoughts flashed through Xiang Jiayun, but the one question he was most concerned about was - where is Teacher He?

He didn't want to stay where he was anymore, he stretched out his hand and took a few steps forward, but bumped into something on the way.As soon as his fingertips touched him, he stopped immediately, but fortunately, he only made a slight sound that was almost inaudible.

Touching it, this thing...it looks like a glass plate, it's a big piece, even with his 1.8-meter height, he can't touch the top even with his arms stretched out.

Xiang Jiayun stood on tiptoe, trying to reach the top of the glass plate, but a light suddenly turned on not far away.

The light of the flashlight hit him directly, and He Chen's face appeared behind the light, with a helpless and angry expression, "I knew it was you."

He still maintained this funny action, and after a while, he quickly stood up and looked around guiltily.

Under the illumination of the flashlight, Xiang Jiayun saw an almost endless ocean of glass.

In the entire negative first floor, there are no partitions except for the necessary load-bearing walls.The wide space is divided into hundreds of small spaces by glass, and each glass plate rises from the ground and reaches the ceiling.

It's like a glass maze.

And in the visible range, there is nothing here, only the glass grid and the components in each grid are left.Some are bookshelves for documents, some are refrigerators for reagents, and the rest are observation boxes.The only thing they have in common is that they are all naked, leaving nothing useful.

The flashlight's lighting ability is very limited, and it can't illuminate the end of this glass sea.

Shocked by what he saw, Xiang Jiayun turned his head back in a daze, and looked at He Chen who was two squares away, "Is there nothing here?"

It was just now that He Chen spoke directly, but there was no movement here.

There should be no living things.

Xiang Jiajun was still standing outside the sea of ​​glass, unable to go in. The glass in front of him was the edge of the sea.Although the glass was transparent and he could see far away at a glance, he still subconsciously felt that there might be something hidden here.

He Chen left the small grid where he was, and walked out from an inner passage, "I should search again, there is only one flashlight, you should rest first."

"Wait, wait." Xiang Jiayun suddenly thought of something, took out the cell phone that had been turned off from his backpack, turned it on, and said to Teacher He, "This is also a flashlight. Let's split up and move faster."

Before Mr. He objected, he happened to catch a glimpse of the time on the phone, and hurriedly said, "It's getting late, we'd better go back before dark, what do you think?"

He Chen was so blocked by him that he couldn't say anything against him, he just repeatedly told him to pay attention to safety, and call himself if he found anything wrong.

Xiang Jiayun listened carefully to the instruction and nodded.Afterwards, they split up with He Chenbing and searched from the other side of the sea of ​​glass.

The reagent refrigerator was placed in the first grid, but it had already stopped running due to a power outage.Xiang Jiayun opened the refrigerator door and took a photo of the inside with the flash of his mobile phone. As expected, there was no reagent stored.There are only some unopened syringes in the box next to the refrigerator.

The second grid was a bare document shelf, and he glanced at it and then walked vertically to the lower grid.

Here is an experimental box, which is probably used to hold animals such as mice and rabbits.There is a small sign on the outside of the box, which is marked with a series of letters and numbers, the meaning of which is completely incomprehensible to non-insiders.

Xiang Jiayun looked all the way along the column, but found nothing.

But I don't know if it was his illusion, there seemed to be a faint rancid smell lingering at the tip of his nose, like spoiled food.

More specifically, meat food.
