Judgment Day [Unlimited]

Chapter 5 Casualties

Three seconds later, the overhead light of the elevator twitched like a short circuit, and the noise of "stabbing" was like a female ghost scraping the steel plate with her long nails. After several flashes, the light suddenly went out.

There was a thick burning smell in the elevator, no, it was more like a rancid smell.

Xie Xingyin frowned, and directly covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve.It smells so bad.

No one spoke, but Xie Xingyin could feel someone trembling beside him.Without the overhead lighting, the enclosed and forbidden elevator car was plunged into horrific darkness.

"...Ghost, ghost blowing the lamp?" The stuttering boy shrank his neck.

"Blowing, blowing on your mother's lamp!" Brother Biao was extremely irritable, "Who the hell blows on the electric lamp!"

Even without claustrophobia, a dark, closed environment can make people feel uncomfortable.

The elevator had a power outage and the key to open the door didn't work either.They are completely locked.

In the darkness, Xie Xingyin felt something tugging at the corner of his clothes, and his back froze.

A moment later, something warm grabbed his hand, and Xie Xingyin's tense heart immediately let go.It was the little black-haired boy.

He pulled the boy behind him and looked up at the extinguished lamp.

In normal times, a power outage in an elevator is definitely a bad thing, but for them now, a pure power outage is already the best situation.

Because if not, it would be difficult for them to go out without incident.

Xie Xingyin grasped the little boy's hand, and pulled him closer comfortingly.The little boy was also very quiet, his palms were slightly cool and dry.

In the darkness, the accident happened in an instant.

Accompanied by the terrifying sound of a blunt object hitting the skull, a heart-piercing exclamation suddenly burst out from the elevator car, almost roaring like a trapped animal struggling to death.

Xie Xingyin was also startled.The high-decibel screams of fear that humans erupt before dying are very contagious.

In panic, the others also screamed.

In the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, Xie Xingyin couldn't see the situation clearly, so he could only try his best to protect the little boy behind him.

After a while, the sound stopped abruptly, and its owner seemed to be strangled by the throat, unable to even groan meaninglessly.

When the creepy cry subsided, everything returned to silence.

The dome light came back on, a bit dazzling, and then the elevator fell into a deathly silence.

Xie Xingyin squinted his eyes and before he could fully adapt to the light, he heard several frightened shouts bursting out at the same time.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Li Wei didn't know when she came to the front, Xie Xingyin looked over her shoulder, and saw a person slumped limply in the corner.

It was the cockscomb head, staring up in horror, his face was covered in blood, and the metal lampshade that fell at his feet was stained red with blood.

Xie Xingyin immediately raised his head, and the ceiling light in the elevator car had no lampshade.

"I'm out of breath." The elite man stepped forward to breathe out his breath, and stood up, "I was crushed to death by the falling lampshade."

The light bulb without the lampshade flickered like a ghost, and was soon re-connected to the light, and the elevator made a "ding" sound and slowly moved upwards.

Brother Biao was so frightened that he retched, pressed the door button desperately, and grabbed the elevator door.

The elevator resumed normal operation and was stopped by him on the second floor.As soon as the door opened, he jumped out in a panic and refused to come in again.

Brother Biao couldn't care about Ji Guantou's body anymore, and hurriedly greeted his only other younger brother: "Let's go up the stairs, you can't take this broken elevator."

It's not a pleasant thing to be in an elevator with a bloody corpse.There were other people who hesitated and wanted to go on, but the elite man pressed the close button first.

"It's not necessarily safer to take the stairs," he said.

Xie Xingyin glanced at him, but remained silent.

I'm afraid the elite man himself may not be able to determine which side is safer.But the more people left in the elevator, the less likely it was his turn to die.

The abacus worked out well.

The elevator was running again, and everyone stayed away from the body of Jiguantou as much as possible, leaving a corner of the elevator empty, and fell into a long silence.

The death of Cockscomb Head was by no means an accident. He was clearly standing in the outermost corner before the lights went out just now, but how could the lampshade of the overhead light in the center hit him on the head impartially, and even hit him directly died?

Xie Xingyin knew that that kind of lampshade didn't have much weight at all.

His suspicious eyes fell on the nameplate of the elevator, and his heart tightened suddenly.

The nameplate was stained with black and red blood, and the blood quickly faded away as if it had been absorbed, and a line of small characters gradually appeared.

"The elevator holds 12 people."

It was clear that there was no such line when they got into the elevator just now.

Li Wei was timid, covered her eyes with her hands, glanced at the cockscomb head through her fingers, said "ah" and quickly looked away, and pulled Xie Xingyin's sleeve in fear.

There was no way to avoid it in the narrow elevator. Everyone tried to stick to the corner of the wall and stay away from the corpses lying on the ground.

Xie Xingyin stood in front of the girls and watched as Lao Liang knelt down to look at Jiguantou's body.

As soon as Lao Liang lowered his head, the sunglasses slipped down the bridge of his nose, and a pair of eyes appeared from behind the sunglasses.

One eyeball is black and bright, but the other blind eye is gray and white, which looks a little creepy.

"How does this blind man know that there is something wrong with the elevator? Could it be that this guy really has yin and yang eyes?" Li Wei whispered.

Xie Xingyin shook his head, he has never been too cold about these nagging things.

"Uncle, can you see clearly wearing sunglasses like this?" The young boy who had been silent all this time suddenly spoke out.

"Of course I can see clearly." Old Liang Baobao tried to wipe his glasses with his sleeve.

"I'm a little scared." Li Wei moved a little closer to Xie Xingyin's side, and said in a low voice, "Cockscomb's death is too strange, how can such a broken lampshade kill someone."

Xie Xingyin looked at the "load of 12 people" on the nameplate, and said in a low voice: "Thirteen people, if one dies, there will be twelve."

Speaking of which, he was still a little scared. If the black-haired boy didn't suddenly pull him into the elevator, he might be the last one to enter the elevator.

Fortunately, this also means that they are safe now.

"Ding—" The elevator reached the 11th floor.

Xie Xingyin and the elite man pulled a broken curtain from the corridor, wrapped the body of Cockcomb Head, and carried it to the corner outside.

Standing at the entrance of the corridor, Lao Liang took out an exquisite compass from his cloth bag and looked at it.The pointer of the compass is spinning crazily, as if there is some sealed evil spirit trying to break free.

"Hey," Old Liang smiled, "It's really evil."

He just took a look, when suddenly there was a light on the bridge of his nose.His glasses are missing.

As soon as he looked up, the sick and beautiful boy was standing in front of him, holding his precious glasses in his hand, unceremoniously "clicked" to remove a round lens, and tossed it in his hand to play.

"Lend me to play."

Seeing that it was him, Lao Liang immediately scolded: "Where did you come from, my glasses are so precious, and if they are broken, your mother will not be able to pay for them! Hurry up and give them to me."

As he said that, Lao Liang stretched out his hand to grab it, but suddenly he became hoarse.

He felt something hard against his waist, swallowed his saliva and looked down slowly, the Rubik's Cube in the young boy's hand was gone, replaced by an assembled pistol.

That gun was shining with a pitch-black luster, it didn't look like a toy gun at all, it was a heavy real gun.The boy still looked sickly and pale, but Liang Xin saw something in those eyes that made his back shudder.

Lao Liang, who was clamoring to find his mother just now, was frightened out of his wits, "Fuck me" and then sat down on the ground.

He watched helplessly as the little boy removed one lens from him, threw the glasses with one lens left to him, and walked away leisurely without his lens.

When he was far away, Lao Liang, who had fallen to the ground, came back to his senses and spat, cursing, "Hey, this damn kid..."

He wasn't cleaned up by a ghost, but was almost cleaned up by a child.



Because of what happened in the elevator just now, Brother Biao resolutely refused to take the elevator. He climbed the stairs all the way up, and arrived panting after several minutes.

Ji Guantou's body had already been moved out of the elevator, covered with clothes and placed on the side of the corridor, a small pool of black blood flowed out meanderingly, staining the floor.

Brother Biao was still cursing, emboldening himself with vulgar words: "His grandma, it's almost dark. I didn't see a floor with lights on all the way up. The darkness scared grandpa to death."

The elite man counted the number of people. "Have they all come up? Then let's allocate a room first."

"Okay. What is the condition that the strange old man just said?"

The keys given by the old detective were 1101-1106. Xie Xingyin noticed that these house numbers were all rooms facing north, and they were connected in a row.The doors to the other rooms were tightly locked.

"Six rooms, a maximum of two people can share one room, and the room cannot be left empty." Xie Xingyin repeated the allocation conditions.

The rest of the people were a little rejoicing. If the cockscomb head hadn't died just now, there would probably be a big problem with the allocation of rooms.

No one wants to be kicked out by themselves.

"There are exactly six rooms for twelve people, so let's distribute them freely."

Xie Xingyin felt that his hand was being held by someone, and looked down, it was the little boy.

The young man looked up at that delicate little face, and slightly moved the corner of his mouth towards him, showing a nice smile.

Xie Xingyin was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he was showing his favor.

"You want to share a room with me?"

The young man pursed his thin lips, nodded, and still held on to his hand.Xie Xingyin felt that his hands were a little cold.

"Okay." Xie Xingyin took the young man by the hand, and picked a key from Brother Biao, room 1104.

"My name is Xie Xingyin, and it's my first time entering the tower." He introduced himself.

The little boy just stood beside him, silent.But no one will force a child to introduce himself, and it's good if he doesn't scare the fool.

The rest allocated rooms and introduced themselves one by one.

The three girls are all students of Hengcheng No. [-] Middle School. They just entered the first year of high school. One of them has short hair and is a sports student.

The elite man claimed to be Jia Ming, Xie Xingyin saw his vigilant look before, and always felt that he had not given his real name.

Xie Xingyin secretly regretted not giving himself an alias earlier.

Lao Liang looked extraordinarily funny wearing sunglasses with one lens missing.He watched Xie Xingyin hesitate to speak, but was stared back by the young man, so he could only shut up resentfully.

He's clearly a little devil, why pretend to be pitiful?

When everyone chose their rooms and was about to go back to rest, Xie Xingyin heard Jia Ming behind him say, "Wait a minute."

Everyone looked over.

Under everyone's probing eyes, Jia Ming stood in front of Xie Xingyin, looked him up and down, and then said in a deep voice, "Why are you pretending to be a newcomer?"
