The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 76 Elevator Horror (3)

The boy cleverly transferred the conflict to Su Ninglong.

Su Ninglong politely curled the corners of his mouth and gave the boy a sneer.

The toes of her high heels tapped lightly on the floor, and she resisted the urge to press her seven-centimeter stilettos into the troublemaker's face.

It is not wise to start a fierce conflict here. Her reason always prevails. She waits for the weapon refiner to take revenge. It is not too late even after ten years, unless he is the one who calculated it.

Otherwise, in the future, as long as he works in a hunter-related profession, there will be many opportunities for him to suffer!
Lei Qingya turned his gaze towards Su Ninglong and the young man, and realized that there was a difference in Su Ninglong's attitude towards the food blogger and the young man. Why was that?
But she soon put this question behind her.

Gu Xiangren was talking freely, revealing his identity as a shareholder of the largest media group on a certain planet.

The repairman's attitude immediately softened, and he suppressed his temper. He tentatively asked Gu Xiangren, "If my story can be spread, how many people will know about it, and can I make money?"

Everyone in the elevator fell silent at the same time and listened to other people's gossip first.

"I'm just a storyteller. If you want people to know your story, you should at least tell it, right? The reach of a story depends on the value of its content." Gu Xiangren slowly smoothed the wrinkles on his collar and said with a smile, "If you feel unfairly treated, I will be your best listener."

Is he just a listener? The mechanic knows that his story is just an ordinary one among so many tragedies and is unlikely to attract any attention.

He lowered his head dejectedly and muttered, "If only I also had a media company. I could be as rich as this..."

Gu Xiangren pressed his warm palms on his trembling shoulders, "You are still young and haven't tried it. How do you know it won't work? As long as you are willing..."

The mechanic rubbed his thumb over the calloused index finger, "Okay, give it to me..."

The repairman hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Give me the contact number."

The others were immediately disappointed. It turned out that they were talking in private and deliberately keeping people in suspense.

……

Outside the elevator, Xiao Chen's hand holding the crowbar was trembling slightly. Lao Qian tried to press the button, the emergency light came on, but the elevator did not respond.

They had to use a crowbar to open the door and shine two lights into the stairwell to check the location of the elevator.

The elevator car was stuck between the sixth and seventh floors, like a metal coffin bitten by sharp teeth.

This location is neither high nor low, so rescue is not difficult.

The elevator is covered with gravity control devices above and below.

Lao Qian said: "The gravity buffer is still working. Try to control the gravity device and adjust the height."

"Got it, stop talking nonsense." Xiao Chen took the controller and manually adjusted the gravity.

He turned the gravity regulating valve, and the elevator suddenly jumped up in a state of weightlessness.

Suddenly, there was a sound of metal friction in the shaft, and screams of the trapped people.

Frightened, Xiao Chen instinctively pulled back the control button, but he was in a panic and this time the force of ten times the gravity came down heavily.

The outer wall of the elevator sank, wrapped in Mars.

Lei Qingya screamed the loudest, and the blood vessels in his ear canal were throbbing. Before he could adapt, the elevator dropped sharply, and the overloaded gravity field made the edge of his retina turn blood red.

The stomach seemed to be separated from the body, and was instantly sucked out and then twisted.

Xiao Chen quickly adjusted the data back to its original state, and the elevator finally stopped between the fourth and fifth floors.

Old Qian forced out a warning through his cigarette-stained teeth, "Do you know how to use it? There are ten of us in there, and if anything happens, both of us will bear the primary responsibility."

"I'm just adjusting the parameters." Xiao Chen's distorted face was reflected on the control panel. "The mall hired us, so they have some responsibility."

Old Qian sneered: "It can also be twisted into that you committed murder in order to get rid of your boss." As long as it is classified as murder, most of the responsibility will fall on Xiao Chen.

"I know who helped you change your error record." A bony finger tapped the controller. "By then, you'll implicate even more people."

Xiao Chen's throat was dry. "They can't fabricate charges."

"Everyone knows that you use your connections to target honest people." Old Qian had a mouthful of yellow teeth and his smile was sinister and creepy.

"I just wanted to get to the top and step on people without killing anyone."

"That's hard to say." Old Qian shone the light at the elevator again and said, "You want the skills but you don't have them. Why aren't you content with the status quo?"

There was a hint of embarrassment in Xiao Chen's eyes. In fact, he had no connections at all. His so-called network was all based on bragging at the dinner table.

But he couldn't say, if he really had a good family, would he need to work so hard to squeeze out his boss?
That diligent boss never stole anything from him, and of course he targeted him because of something unspeakable.

His original intention was just to squeeze others out, and after he took the position, he would hand over the work to his subordinates. Unfortunately, the honest people were stubborn and unwilling to submit.

Xiao Chen had a good idea, but he didn't think that no matter how honest a senior maintenance engineer is, he still has dignity, so how could he be willing to work under an incompetent person?

Once people leave, Xiao Chen is nothing.

This time, Xiao Chen used the gravity controller carefully again, but no matter how he calibrated the parameters, the elevator was still silent.

"Damn it, this can also break?"

Old Qian laughed even more wildly, and Xiao Chen had no choice but to ask: "What should we do in this situation?"

The security captain also contacted him at this time, "What's going on? How did you repair it? Did you mistake the elevator for a bungee jump at an amusement park? Are you trying to murder me?"

He saw everything from the surveillance camera. The old lady and the man who claimed to be a food blogger fell badly. The food blogger kept saying that he would complain to the mall.

The word "murder" appeared again from the security captain's mouth. Xiao Chen shrank his neck and dared not say a word.

Lao Qian explained the situation directly to the security captain, "The gravity control device is broken. We need to sling down from the fifth floor to rescue them."

The security captain said, "I'll have the others bring you equipment. Make sure it's safe before going down the mine. What about Xiao Chen? Do you have any other plans? Can you confirm the main cause of the elevator failure?"

I can't find an excuse for my usual eloquence, and the knowledge I have learned seems to have disappeared from my mind out of thin air.

He had learned it before, but he just couldn't remember it at the moment. Xiao Chen's sweat slid down his spine into the collar of his work clothes.

Old Qian scoffed and said slowly, "Captain, we haven't had time to check yet. Let's go to the fifth floor and rescue the people before we find out the cause."

The mall is still carrying out the rescue work at a leisurely pace.

But the people in the elevator have truly experienced the ups and downs.

Lei Qingya grabbed the vomit bag from the cleaning cart with one hand, "Ugh, ugh, ugh..." The sour smell mixed with the dizziness of weightlessness surged in his throat.

Without any signs or psychological preparation, it moved up and down quickly. If the exit button had not popped up, she would have thought that the copy ended here.

This short and thrilling experience made Su Ninglong hate high heels even more. Her face turned pale and she almost fell down.

My ankle was rubbed and bleeding.

She glanced at the cleaning cart, which was filled with cleaning supplies, including white towels. Su Ninglong took the initiative to help the old lady up. "Auntie, can I buy two towels? I'm not comfortable standing in my high heels."

The old lady narrowed her cloudy eyes, looked at her attire, and said slowly, "One thousand star coins per piece."

"Two thousand star coins is enough to buy the cleaning service of a small shuttle." Lei Qingya has seen many people asking for higher prices, but this is the first time he has seen such an outrageous price, especially in such a narrow place, and he is not afraid of being beaten.

Glancing at the food blogger restlessly turning the camera, Lei Qingya suppressed his curse words and let Su Ninglong make her own decision.

Su Ninglong didn't hesitate: "I want two, give them to me."

The money being spent is not from his real identity, so it is impossible for Su Ninglong to be frugal.

It's better than walking barefoot on a cold floor.

After a while, the old lady said, "I'll give it to you." She opened the thin packaging bag with a stern face and slowly pulled out two brand new towels. "Girl, you have quite a lot of money. People don't show off their wealth. You spent two thousand star coins just to keep your feet from getting tired. Why did you buy these shoes in the first place..."

He keeps on talking and really doesn't consider himself an outsider.

Su Ninglong paid and took the towel, then immediately folded it into a cushion and spread it on the ground, and tied the other one around her waist. The temperature in the elevator was a bit low, and it made her lower body feel chilly.

I don’t know how long I have to stay in this place to solve the mystery. Su Ninglong refused and suffered.

Take off your high heels, dangle your stilettos from your fingertips, and step barefoot onto the rough towel.

This is much better.

She casually lifted her hair and tucked it behind her ear, revealing her graceful neck, which attracted several eager glances from those around her.

"These are assembly-line products at a beauty salon that cost only a few thousand star coins. I don't know what's so good about them." The food blogger rubbed his bruised knee and said sarcastically with a sour tone.

"If you don't know how to speak, just shut up. Your few fans are almost scared away by your mean and jealous face." Su Ninglong kindly reminded her that if she wanted to enjoy the fan economy, she should first be herself.

The food blogger was in pain all over after the fall just now. Because she wanted to play the pitiful role, she sat on the ground and started to curse others as if they were inferior.

Just as he was about to laugh at Su Ninglong for having bad intentions, the lights and signboards above his head flashed twice.

Everyone raised their heads nervously. The capable woman with short hair quickly contacted the security captain, "Is there a problem with the mall's power supply? The lighting here is abnormal."

The security captain's first reaction was to check the system data. "No problem, the backup energy is also turned on."

When he said this, the security captain felt a little guilty.

The system did not indicate any fault with the elevator, and it was possible that no abnormality could be detected, and he did not understand anything related to the system.

The anomaly has been reported, but management needs to send someone over here to check it out, which will take some time.

"Don't panic, it's just a common malfunction that happens in many places." The security captain tried his best to calm people down. After hanging up, he turned around and urged Xiao Chen and Lao Qian to hurry up. If there really was a problem with the power supply of the elevator, the ten people trapped in the darkness would definitely be angry.

The lights flickered twice again, and the holographic pattern became strangely distorted.

Once again, all light sources were swallowed up.

In the darkness, a cold and damp gaze is wandering. The mysterious spirit has always been there, but where is it hiding?

Su Ninglong tightened her high heels, which were her weapon against humans.

She didn't want the secret spirit to be destroyed by her own kind before she found it. Old Ancestor Su couldn't afford to lose this person.

There was a sharp sound of a steel cable breaking outside the elevator, and the car suddenly swayed and tilted.

"The security captain lied to us." The food blogger screamed, and her live broadcast device also stopped broadcasting, as if the signal was blocked, and a small orange light flashed, as faint as a firefly.

"I want to call the police. We should have called the police a long time ago. The mall security is totally incapable of saving us."

Su Ninglong grabbed the handrail and squatted down to lower his center of gravity.

Immediately afterwards, a strong smell of blood entered everyone's nose.

They all fumbled for their bracelets and turned on the light screen. At the same time, the lights above their heads flashed again, and the space returned to brightness.

On the ground, there was a corpse lying in a pool of blood, his eyes wide open, as if he died with his eyes open.

"Ah..."

"what…"

The food blogger screamed hysterically, the glaring red was so close to her.

Gu Xiangren died right next to her, blood was flowing under her body, and her butt was covered in blood.

She completely forgot about pretending to be pitiful in front of the live camera and struggled to get up, tears and snot streaming uncontrollably. But her feet were too slippery and she fell again.

When she finally got up, the floor was covered in blood from her chaotic movements, which was a shocking sight.

The security captain watched the scene through the surveillance camera and murmured, "Something big has happened."

He quickly informed the people in the elevator, "I've called the police. Don't move. The murderer must be among you."

The four people, a short-haired capable woman, a taciturn young man, a boy and a strong man, seemed tense but calm.

Among these four, three should be net hunters.

Five net hunters, each as a character in the story line, retrace what happened in the mysterious spirit contaminated area at that time.

The reason why Suninglong had an argument with the food blogger was very simple, he just wanted to verify the above speculation.

The result is obvious. The live broadcast device cannot be broken by falling or stepping on. It is an important part of the story line, and Zhisuan No. 1 will not allow her to destroy it.

The same may be true for her high heels, which is why they cannot be changed.

Lei Qingya's role-playing also verifies this point.

She always felt that Zhisuan No. 1 was conveying some important information, but it was not convenient to make it clear, so she could only discover it herself through online hunting.

The short-haired, capable woman said to the security captain, "When can you fix the elevator? We don't want to be in the same room with a dead person and a murderer."

"Ma'am, please don't be angry. We are trying to find a way to get you out. It will take some time. This all seems to have been arranged in advance. There must be a conspiracy."

Of course there was a conspiracy. Murder in a closed room, if it wasn't planned, what else could it be? A temporary plan?

The food blogger, who had calmed down a lot, stepped over the blood and wanted to use Suninglong's towel to step on it and wipe off the blood on the soles of his shoes.

Su Ninglong advised her not to do this, "If you don't want to be considered a suspect, it's best to just stand where you are and do nothing."

The food blogger thought it was ridiculous: "I'm not a criminal, what should I be afraid of?"

"You're standing close to him, so you're suspicious. Just because you say you're not the criminal doesn't mean we have to believe you unconditionally."

No one made room for her. The food blogger scanned them all, "If you won't let me move, don't blame me for exposing you. There's a murderer among you. The audience in the livestream will definitely be able to find your information. Your movements will be exposed, and then it will be clear who has a grudge against him."
