There were four people in their group. At this moment, each of them was holding a mobile phone and turning on a flashlight, and the four of them stood in a circle.
One of the girls was holding a key, and it was obvious that she was the one who opened the fire door just now. The other three looked at her and asked her to continue opening the door.
"I have to rest for a while, otherwise I will easily fail." said the girl holding the key.
The others were extremely anxious: "We have been trying for so many days and finally got to the first floor. If we don't hurry up and go up, the security guards patrolling outside will come in and we will be driven away again."
"Yes, this hotel only has three floors. We just need to open two doors. My brother is right in front of us, just one door away from us!"
"Think about it, we've wasted so much time, three days, and still haven't been able to rescue my brother. If we succeed in bringing him out... we'll be his saviors, we'll be heroes!"
The more they talked, the more excited the three girls became, and they looked eagerly at the person holding the key.
The person holding the key was obviously tempted. She hesitated for a moment, but finally shook her head: "Wait a minute, just wait a moment, I'll take a rest."
The three girls pouted unconsciously when they heard this: "Okay, then how long do you want to rest?"
"Okay, I'll tell you." The man holding the key said, "We've come such a long way, everyone must be tired, let's sit down first."
As she spoke, she picked up her phone to take a picture, and saw a sofa nearby. She immediately walked over with the other three and sat down.
Coincidentally, the sofa was located right opposite Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia's hiding place.
Although the two were not discovered, they were so close that once Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia went out, they might run into them at any time.
At this time, the four girls had already sat down on the sofa. Except for the girl holding the key who closed her eyes and rested silently, the other three were full of energy and excitedly began to imagine the bright future after they rescued Ke Chengxuan.
Although they spoke in low voices when they were chatting, the entire blockade area was dead silent and even the smallest sound seemed very abrupt, so the voices of the three people continued to echo on the first floor.
Ji Mingxia took this opportunity to turn around and look at Yu Ning, and mouthed, "What should we do? Should we go up first?"
"It's a bit strange." Yu Ning said.
Ji Mingxia looked at him puzzledly.
Yu Ning was about to explain, but at this moment, the three girls' question shifted to another person.
"It's so cold here. It's uncomfortable to sit here. Did you get enough rest?"
"Save him as soon as possible so we can go home with my brother."
"Yes, we came here wearing cotton clothes. It's so cold even sitting here. My brother is in the hotel. He must not have prepared thick clothes. I don't know how he is now..."
The girl holding the key opened her eyes and looked at her companion helplessly: "I need some time."
"How long will it take? Give me an estimate." One of them said impatiently.
The girl holding the key glanced at her companions and whispered, "I think an hour..."
"An hour?! An hour is enough for us to go out and come back!"
"No, I can't get out once I get in. It's so annoying. If I had known I would have to wait so long, I would have brought some food with me."
"It's been too long, Liu Lin, what's wrong with you? Are you deliberately playing tricks on us?"
When the three girls heard this, they couldn't help but complain.
"If you can't do it, don't bother."
"How about letting me try? I can definitely last longer than you." Another girl said, extending her hand towards Liu Lin.
When Liu Lin, who was holding the key, saw her asking for it, her expression changed immediately. She hid the key behind her and shook her head, saying, "No, the key is mine. It only listens to me. Don't even think about it."
As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere on the scene changed subtly.
The three girls were silent for a few seconds, and finally one of them sneered and said, "Liu Lin, that's enough. No one wants to steal your things. In our hearts, we only have you, brother. It's you who is dragging your feet and wasting our time. Otherwise, who would be willing to be with you?"
Liu Lin turned her head away without saying anything. After a moment, Liu Lin took the initiative to stand up and said, "Let's go."
"Did you have a good rest?" one of the girls asked.
"Yeah." Liu Lin said and walked towards the door.
There are three doors in the hotel lobby, plus two elevator passages.
Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia entered through the main entrance of the hotel, while Liu Lin and his group came in through the escape door at the back.
At this moment, the only parts of the hall that had not been used were the elevator and the fire escape staircase door.
There was no doubt that the elevator was unusable, so Liu Lin simply bypassed the elevator and walked to the fire escape staircase door.
It is said that the rescue workers have been wandering around on the first floor for several days, but have not found a passage to the second floor until now. Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia are also very curious about what the situation is between the first and second floors of the hotel.
Unfortunately, before they had the chance to check, they ran into these fans.
Seeing that all four of them were gathered in front of the fire door, Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia looked at each other, and the two of them moved out from the corner quietly, stood in a corner where they could see the fire door, and watched what happened.
This fire door was obviously locked. At this moment, Liu Lin stood in front of the door, inserting the key and muttering to herself.
The whole area was silent, and the three girls did not speak, so although Liu Lin's murmurs were small, they still echoed in the lobby on the first floor.
"I want to go to the second floor. I want to go to the second floor to see Ke Chengxuan. Take us to the second floor... Go to the second floor..." The more Liu Lin spoke, the hoarser her voice became, as if an invisible force was being drawn out of her.
The next moment, with a "click", the locked fire door was opened.
Ji Mingxia's eyes widened immediately: "The key in her hand is... a mysterious object?!"
Ji Mingxia had just met these girls a few days ago. They were all ordinary people, and none of them was holding any mysterious objects.
It's only been a few days, and one of them not only has it, but can even operate it skillfully?!
When did mysterious objects become so common
Was it that he had misjudged them before, or did they have some adventures in the past few days
When the fans in front saw that the door was finally opened, they pushed it open impatiently.
It was pitch black inside the hotel. If you didn't turn on the flashlight, you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
But the magical thing is that there is a faint red light coming from inside the fire escape door.
In the darkness, a ray of red light shone dimly, reflecting on the faces of the four female fans, making everyone's face blood red.
Then, a strong fishy smell wafted out from inside.
Ji Mingxia immediately had an ominous premonition in his heart.
As the name suggests, a fire escape is an escape route provided by residents when an accident occurs and it is inconvenient for them to take the elevator.
The lighting signs in the fire escape corridor have always been green, and this red light is obviously not in line with common sense.
"Brother Chengxuan, is Brother Ke Chengxuan in there?" a girl asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone there? We are here to save you."
There was dead silence inside the door, but when the girl's voice fell, a few rustling sounds were faintly heard.
It was like something was rubbing gently on the ground. The sound was not loud, but it was dense and fragmented, coming out from inside.
Several girls looked at each other, all of them curious. One of them couldn't help but open the door a little wider, then stuck her head in and looked inside.
When the girl saw the scene inside the door, she was startled and looked strange. She murmured, "What is this place? Are you sure it's a hotel?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Mingxia couldn't help but take a look.
His five senses are stronger than those of ordinary people, and his eyesight is also much better. Although he was standing in a very remote position and the angle was not very good, but through the gap, Ji Mingxia could see at a glance the window, blackboard, and tables and chairs inside the door.
Blackboard? Tables and chairs
Is it possible for such a thing to appear in the hotel's fire escape
Not to mention the fire escape, this doesn't even look like a hotel, but rather a school!
Just when Ji Mingxia was puzzled, suddenly, a black shadow flashed by quickly and rushed out of the door.
Ji Mingxia said in surprise: "Be careful ahead!"
Although he reacted quickly and warned them immediately, the girls standing by the door were too late to react.
When they heard Ji Mingxia's voice, their first reaction was to look towards Ji Mingxia's position, thus missing the best time to hide.
The next moment, the girl closest to the door was grabbed by the black shadow and disappeared into thin air in the blink of an eye.
The other two girls were stunned for a moment and couldn't help screaming.
Just when the black shadow was about to attack the other two people, a red light flashed and turned into a sharp blade that cut the black shadow in half!
An unspeakable roar came from inside the door, and a few drops of liquid splashed out from the broken part of the black shadow, fell to the ground, and corroded with a "sizzling" sound.
After being injured, the black shadow immediately gave up on the two girls and disappeared through the door in a flash.
The red light of the sharp blade circled in the air for a moment, and after confirming it was safe, it flew back into Yu Ning's hand.
The remaining three girls hurriedly fled from the door frame, their eyes looking in the direction of the ring, and fell on Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia in surprise and suspicion.
"It's you." Liu Lin stared at Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia and recognized them the first time.
The other two girls were still in shock. When they saw Liu Lin recognized someone, they quickly asked, "Who is it?"
"He was in the car with us that day." Liu Lin whispered.
Ji Mingxia also recognized that Liu Lin was the girl who was chatting with him while holding a camera that day when he was riding in the car.
At that time, she looked no different from the other girls, all little girls immersed in their love for idols.
However, in just a few days, Liu Lin seemed to have completely changed her personality and was incompatible with this group.
The other two girls, who had just escaped from the gates of hell, were completely dazed. After hearing Liu Lin's words, they looked at Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia, and then they recognized them belatedly.
"Why are you... here?" one of the girls asked, "Were you the ones who saved us just now?"
The other girl's eyes stayed on Yu Ning's face: "You are... Yu Ning?"
When Yu Ning's name was called out, several girls couldn't help but look at Yu Ning in surprise. They didn't expect to meet him under such circumstances.
In the past, even half an hour ago, these people’s minds might still be full of the twists and turns of the fan circle.
However, after experiencing the attack by the black shadow just now, one of the four people was kidnapped, and the remaining three girls had no time to think about those unimportant things.
"What was that just now? Was it a human or a beast?"
"Xiao Qi was captured, what should I do..."
The two girls were at a loss, feeling both frightened and worried, and they couldn't stop shaking.
Compared to them, Liu Lin was much calmer, but her face was very pale.
The three of them stood together, not daring to move at all. In the end, Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning stepped forward.
Ji Mingxia stared at the door vigilantly to prevent any sneak attack from the dark shadow at any time.
He had just seen it correctly. Behind this door was not a corridor or a hotel room, but an empty classroom.
The classroom was fully equipped with items such as a blackboard, a podium, desks and chairs. Looking at the layout of the classroom, Ji Mingxia even felt that it looked very familiar and reasonably suspected that it was the classroom of the school next door.
Open the hotel fire door, and behind it is connected to a school classroom. This is a spatial overlap. Is it the special ability of the key
In the classroom, the red fire emergency light is on, and the red light is coming from here.
At this moment, there was silence inside, without any living creatures. Both the black shadow and the abducted girl had disappeared.
At the same time, Yu Ning also walked to the door frame and lowered his head to look at the ground.
When the black shadow was trying to grab people, Yu Ning used the blood-red ring to intercept him in time. With liquid splashing on the black shadow's hand, a small part of the limb fell to the ground.
It was a piece of flesh-like thing with a smooth surface, light flesh color, and translucent mucus attached. Although it had been cut off, it was still twitching slightly.
At first glance, it doesn't seem like something a human should have.
