Chapter 24 Challenge

Chapter 24 Challenge

Author: Robot Wall-E

Chapter 24 Challenge

With a rumble and a click, the iron door of the warehouse was closed from the outside.

The soft jazz music in the warehouse suddenly sounded like a cassette on an old-fashioned tape recorder, making a harsh noise.

The light in the entire warehouse was disappearing, everything became dim, and the wine tables became like rocks with sharp edges.

"..." Lei Yue was startled and wanted to run towards the gate, but the distance was too far and it was too late.

"Mohawk? Lucky? Ginny?...Ayasa?"

He turned around and looked around, shouting, "Are you playing something, right?"

But there was still silence all around, and no one responded. Only the claws of the crow on his left shoulder were clenching, warning like warnings in the past.

There is a situation, so Lei Yue can be sure that something dangerous to him is happening here.

Snuff film? Battle royale?

However, this is the job introduced by Ayasha...

She brought me here because she saw that I was frustrated with playing dead bodies all day long and heard that I was about to die...

How much do you know about her?

Lei Yue was a little confused for a moment, and the pistol in his pocket kept sinking.

The doors and windows were all closed and there was no ventilation. The air in the warehouse became stuffy and his forehead was sweating.

The ulcerated wound on his neck caused by the living dead disease began to bleed again, and large pieces of rotten skin and flesh fell off his body. Regardless of whether he was delusional or not, the shadow of death was so close.

Suddenly, the crow scratched his shoulder and it hurt. Lei Yue came back to his senses and shook his head calmly.

Stop thinking nonsense now, no matter what is going on, leave here before talking about it.

"Friend, we won't be jumped by the immortal, but I didn't do anything..."

Lei Yue muttered, trying to relieve the pressure with self-deprecation. At the same time, he took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight to look around.

My eyes noticed that the screen of my mobile phone showed that there was no signal...

He immediately tried to send a message to Sister Hua: "Sister Hua, do you know a group of underground filmmakers named Mohawk, Lackey and Ginny?" However, the message could not be sent.

He tried dialing Sister Hua directly again, but there was no response, not even the voice prompt "You are not in the service area". The phone seemed to be broken.

Calling Huang Ziqiang, it won't work; calling Mai Ji, it won't work, they can't get through.

This means that even if you want to call the police, you can't.

"Is there any signal jammer here?"

This thought flashed across Lei Yue's mind, and then he thought about how Lingsha knew so much about computers and IT technology...

Many people understood. He took a deep breath and walked carefully step by step towards the back door of the warehouse.

At the same time, he reached out and unzipped his belt bag so that he could pull out his pistol at any time.

The white light emitted by the mobile phone broke through the heavy shadows in the warehouse. It was still a short distance away, and Lei Yue could see clearly that the iron back door, which was much smaller than the main door, was also locked.

The back door was locked from inside the warehouse, with a large iron lock covered in mottled rust.

Lei Yue held up his cell phone, walked up slowly, and patted the iron door. There was a banging sound, but the iron lock did not move at all, trapping the darkness firmly inside.

"Hey, is there anyone there!?" he yelled, and was met with silence.

He stood at the back door for a while, feeling gradually depressed, scared and confused.

But I don’t know whether I am afraid of being in danger or being deceived...

At this moment, rustling, rustling, and suddenly there was another white noise, like a hoarse voice coming from the air.

When he heard the sound, he saw that several TV screens installed at different locations on the L-shaped bar suddenly turned on. They were all snowy screens with black and white pixels intertwined wildly, like ghosts in the dark environment.

Suddenly, he saw one of the screens, and a line of bloody text appeared among the snowflakes:

[Push open the second floor window and jump out]

"This..." Lei Yue was shocked. Who, who is operating these signals behind the scenes? Is it an enemy or a friend?

As he looked at that line of text, he seemed to feel a strange magic power coming, drilling into his eyes and spinning around in his mind.

Go up to the second floor?

"Friend, what do you think..." Lei Yue murmured to the crow on his left shoulder, becoming more and more distracted, "Should we go up and take a look..."

The crow remained unconvinced and silent, but did not fly up to lead the way, and its claws scratched his flesh sharply.

Lei Yue suddenly became alert. Judging from what the black bird meant, it seemed that this was the correct exit, which was the locked iron back door.

Thinking about it, why would I go to the second floor in this unclear situation?

Isn't that just like those stupid characters in bad horror movies who go down alone in the basement knowing that there is danger...

"I won't do such stupid things! My friend, I listen to you. Whoever falls in love will fall in love with you, and I will stay here."

Lei Yue said, looking at the iron door and lock in front of him again. They were both very old, with a layer of skin peeled off due to corrosion.

I don't know how to open a lock, but maybe I can do a miracle...

Shooting to break the door or lock? No, it's not that shooting will expose you and possibly cause problems with the police. We are all in this situation, and we can only shoot if necessary.

The problem is that I probably can't control the recoil of the pistol, and I might miss the shot in the end, and even dislocate multiple joints in my hands.

Moreover, when shooting in such a confined space, there is even a risk of ricochet hitting oneself.

Lei Yue thought about this, glanced around, walked to a corner not far away, picked up a red fire extinguisher that was also badly rusted, and tried this first.

"Come on." He gritted his teeth, raised the fire extinguisher with both hands and slammed it against the iron lock, bang bang!!

The door and lock were shaken by the smashing and made a loud noise, but the iron lock was still the same, with only a little rust stain wiped off.

On the contrary, he hit it so hard that he could hardly stand on his feet, and he felt that a large piece of rotten and bleeding flesh all over his body was splattered.

A section of intestine was about to burst and protrude, and severe pain finally invaded.

"Hiss..." Lei Yue breathed heavily and leaned against the iron door. Regardless of whether this was a delusion or not, he could almost clearly feel the pain of tearing his skin and flesh.

I haven’t taken medicine for more than ten days. I’m really going to die...

Haven't you fallen down yet? Keep going!

"Ah!" Lei Yue yelled, mustered up all his strength again, raised the fire extinguisher and threw it at the old door lock, bang bang——

There was another deafening crash, and the old door lock was shaking.

However, the door lock seems to be shaky, but it is still hanging there.

Lei Yue breathed for a while and then struck again. The crow on his shoulder kept watching silently, its dark feathers even darker than the surrounding darkness.

Bang, bang, bang!

He smashed it more than a dozen times, but did not go to other places in the warehouse, thinking that he could still smash it for a day until the door lock fell off, or someone outside heard the noise and came.

Anyway, with this black bird friend here, I can chat with myself when I feel bored...

Lei Yue was thinking this, and while he was doing it, he suddenly heard some movement from behind.

The rustling white noise of the TV was mixed with clicking sounds.

He turned back to the bar to see what was going on, and saw that every TV screen displayed a line of dazzling bloody subtitles:

[Push open the second floor window and jump out, now!]

The strange magic power in the words became even stronger, and among the hissing noises playing in the bar speakers, there seemed to be mixed the voices of Lingsha, Mohawk and others: "Lei Yue, hurry up and leave from the second floor. Don't smash it.

quick!"

Lei Yue's eyes were filled with those screens, and he was suddenly stunned, as if he had been hit by ecstasy.

The patches of snowflakes on the screen were like spreading mold, infecting and invading, occupying his thoughts:

"Could it be that something happened in my hometown bar, and Ayasha and the others could only rescue me in this way..."

With this thought, the subtitles, snowflakes and white noise that I saw and heard suddenly came to me more fiercely.

Lei Yue felt that his mind was being covered and scribbled by those electronic messages:

[Go to the second floor and jump out of the window, I’m trying to save you.]

【Go quickly, this is filming.】

【This is a test, this is a training, this is a challenge...】

【Complete the challenge now, or you will die!】
