Chapter 553: The Situation on the Other Side (3/4)
The Pearl Tower alone has hundreds of floors. As the tallest building on the Bund in the coastal city, its stairs almost look like the Tower of Babel depicted in mythology, or the Kalin Tower in "Dragon Ball". If you want to climb it,
It would take several days to climb up to the tower day and night. Although the Pearl Tower is not so exaggerated, in reality it can be regarded as a level where just looking at the depth of the corridor can make people weak in the legs.
At this time, Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang were walking down the long spiral staircase. The black corridor was like a double helix made of bases. Looking up and down, it was dark. Occasionally, they passed by two white emergency lights to illuminate it.
Both of them looked confused.
Neither of them spoke. Only Lu Mingfei's footsteps sounded in the corridor. Su Xiaoqiang took off her high heels to walk easier, and the sound made by stepping on the ground with her bare feet was slightly quieter. All she could think about was the corridor outside the rooftop hall just now.
The scene I saw in the movie, the rows of lost innocents, and the helpless girl in the lead.
Chen Wenwen was undoubtedly Chen Wenwen. Neither Lu Mingfei nor Su Xiaoqiang could admit their mistake. The girl CK had not found now appeared in front of them, but in an extremely bad form.
The two of them couldn't save Chen Wenwen. This was a fact. The "waiters" guarding the left and right sides of the team just gave them a sense of oppression that made them completely speechless. They stood frozen in cold sweat and watched the team leave them.
After entering the hall and locking the door, they couldn't even go back. They could only stand in the corridor for a while before they ended up in the current situation.
"Is this really good for us?" Lu Mingfei wanted to ask, but he couldn't ask, had no position, and was not qualified to ask.
If not, what can they do? Should they rush back to the lobby without being able to contact the only security guard, CK? And then, under the supervision of the group of "waiters", take the two of them in together?
They had long sensed that something was wrong with this press conference, and no one knew what would happen if they stayed any longer.
Due to emotions and reasons, it was the wisest and most correct choice for him and Su Xiaoqiang to leave. It wasn't that he refused to save Chen Wenwen, it was really not that he refused to save Chen Wenwen! He turned to look at Su Xiaoqiang aside, but found that Su Xiaoqiang was also watching.
He seemed to have guessed the ideological struggle in his mind now, and his expression was a bit complicated and bitter.
“You saw what she looked like just now.” Su Xiaoqiang said.
Those eyes, although thin, already have light golden eyes.
Lu Mingfei's heart throbbed hard, as if he had been pinched hard by a hand. It hurt. His legs going down the stairs became a little softer, and his right hand couldn't help but touch the handrail to support his body.
"It's not hopeless." Su Xiaoqiang lowered his head and glanced at the abyss-like corridor outside the handrail and said, "The communication above was cut off. It should be because the organizer has turned on the signal jammer. It's our monthly exam, model one and model two.
The equipment used in schools at that time was not new at all. We might be able to restore the signal and contact CK by walking a little further down."
“Will she be asked to rescue Wenwen again then?” Lu Mingfei said.
"Is it you who called us Wenwen?" Su Xiaoqiang said. This fierce blow made the boy a little embarrassed. Looking at his appearance, the little goddess shook her head and said, "It's not too late to call after we are saved. With the grace of saving life,
, Literary girl, how can I repay you with my life?"
What a good person to repay with your own body!
Is it really popular for girls to do this now? Do you and Lin Nian have any chance of repaying the favor with your own body? Maybe you have secretly repaid the favor after such a long time. Lu Mingfei's original guilty and sad thoughts were suddenly taken away.
He was off the mark. Su Xiaoqiang glanced at him and said, "Don't get it wrong. Repaying someone with one's body depends on the situation. In ancient times, being saved by a scholar meant giving one's life to someone who was saved by a butcher."
Is it just a cow or a horse? Do you think Chen Wenwen will be a cow or a horse for you after tonight, or will she commit herself to you? "
Lu Mingfei wanted to say that the two were essentially the same. After all, the role of oxen and horses was to plow the land and gallop, but this was too boring and he could have done nothing with Lin Nian. He was really a little bit in front of the little goddess.
Can't say it.
"Find CK first. It's not that we have given up on Chen Wenwen, but we really can't save her now. If we foolishly followed her in, we might have been trapped ourselves. We were lucky to have escaped early. Now we can find a way to find a solution after meeting CK.
, at least now we can be sure that Chen Wenwen is not dead. As long as she is not dead, there is a chance to save her. Even if she rescues a fool, she can still fill the house, right?" Su Xiaoqiang said.
Lu Mingfei thought to himself whether this line was a little too inappropriate, "Little Goddess, you are not usually such a casual person," but when he turned to look at the other person, he found that the other person was also staring at him, with some worry in his eyes.
Only then did he realize that Su Xiaoqiang was not awakening to some passive aura like him, which became whiter and whiter the more nervous he became, but was trying to comfort him in some suitable way, fearing that he would blame himself too much and collapse.
When ordinary girls encounter this kind of situation, they are probably already paralyzed. They are so scared that their feet are weak and screaming, and they can’t walk. However, Su Xiaoqiang actually still has the thought to care about her companions. It is unexpected that the little goddess who is usually so proud that her tail is raised is actually still there.
With such a caring and considerate side, it's no wonder that Lin Nian was so fascinated by her that even a girl from North High School refused to confess her love to him. He also refused to have such a kindhearted and kind-hearted rich woman with a lot of money offer to trade for him.
ah.
Lu Mingfei patted his cheek and threw away all his other thoughts and looked down at the endless staircase. The further he went down, the more he would have the illusion that they were not walking from the top of the tower to the ground, but from the ground level.
Starting from the ground and walking further down into the deep darkness, there was something dangerous hidden at the end waiting for them to approach.
Normally, he wouldn't be afraid of complaining that the stairs were too long and hurting his knee synovial membrane. But today's situation is different. After seeing those thrilling scenes at the press conference that reshaped his outlook on life, the process of going down the stairs now feels like
After watching "The Ring", I went to the bathroom in the dark. The most outrageous thing was that the light in the bathroom was broken. I wanted to open the bathroom door and defecate while singing the Phoenix Legend loudly.
Even if there is a little goddess accompanying him, it can't reduce his fear. After all, walking at night to be afraid of ghosts can only scare yourself, but there are really "ghosts" hiding in this tower today. Who knows how many ghosts the organizers have brought with them?
A monster named "Deadpool" came over, and he even suspected that the "bad news" CK said before cutting off contact was related to this incident. Now, whether CK is safe or not is a question mark.
The more he thought about Lu Mingfei, the more cowardly he became. He had to hold on to the slide when going down the stairs. In fact, Su Xiaoqiang was not much better than him, but this girl had always been stronger. Lu Mingfei didn't even lie down to die, let alone her.
Maybe I was showing my timidity, holding on to my high heels and gritting my teeth as I walked down the stairs, and I had to be careful not to step on broken glass or anything like that.
Suddenly, Su Xiaoqiang, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and stood motionless, without even taking a breath. This stop scared Lu Mingfei, thinking she had bumped into something in front of her.
He froze in place and dared not move, fearing that he would be disturbed by something unknown hidden in the darkness.
The silence in the corridor was terrifying. After the footsteps disappeared, the only sound was his own heartbeat and breathing. He stared at Su Xiaoqiang's back in front of him and found that the other person seemed to be petrified and motionless. His heartbeat was also fast.
It slowly began to speed up, and adrenaline mixed with sweat was continuously secreted from the armpits.
If it were in a horror movie, Su Xiaoqiang would suddenly turn around at this moment, with all the whites of his eyes disappearing into darkness, his mouth constantly moving and making weird sounds, and he would pounce on Lu Mingfei and eat him alive, but according to today's plot, it should be Su Xiaoqiang.
I met a Deadpool who was going upstairs. They were in a stalemate. Once the balance was broken, the Deadpool would pounce on him. He would first eat Su Xiaoqiang and skin him alive, and then eat Lu Mingfei alive. There was no way he could escape.
peel!
During this period of racing thoughts, the more Su Xiaoqiang remained motionless in the dark corridor, the sadder the expression of Lu Mingfei standing behind him became. He was sure that they had really hit a ghost, otherwise it would not have been possible for this girl to take such a long time.
Not a word said, not a movement made!
For a moment, Lu Mingfei closed his mouth tightly and did not dare to say a word. Like Su Xiaoqiang in front of him, he was frozen in place like a wooden person. He did not dare to sweat for fear of falling to the ground and making a sound that would disturb the things hidden in the darkness.
What should we do now? Should we just break the balance, turn around and run up with a scream?
But can he run away? They have already gone down more than ten floors. If they want to return to the corridor this distance, let alone Deadpool, anyone with enough physical strength can catch up with Lu Mingfei, who has weak legs. So what if he wants to go back to the corridor today?
The man rushed forward to block Su Xiaoqiang's knife? In this way, he could still gain a reputation as a hero. On his death anniversary next year, Lin Nian might pay a visit to Su Xiaoqiang's grave for his own sake and burn some paper money for himself. It wouldn't be a big deal if he thought about it.
deficit
No, wait.
Lu Mingfei, who was almost desperate, suddenly thought of something, and the desire to survive surged out. If he remembered correctly, Su Xiaoqiang should have a special skill called "Asylum". He always thought that this was Su Xiaoqiang's trump card, and he didn't say it.
I didn’t even ask, now it seemed like it was time for her to reveal her trump card to save her life at this suspected crisis moment? This way, it seemed like they wouldn’t necessarily die tonight.
Just when this thought came to his mind, a slender white hand stretched out from behind his shoulder and gently placed it on his shoulder. When the weight and peripheral vision caught sight of this hand, Lu
Like a monkey who lit a fuse, Mingfei jumped up with a scream so loud that only his fellow whales could hear it. When he landed, his legs slipped and he sat down on the steps, causing him to twist.
His face was grinning.
"Why such a big reaction, brother, do you think I look like a ghost?" On the upper step behind Lu Mingfei, a little boy in a suit and evening dress stretched out his right hand and looked down at Lu Mingfei and said inexplicably, before greeting him
Only when he caught the other person's gaze did he slowly reveal a smile, "Good evening, brother."
