When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
Jiang Yue made a gesture to Luo Chu, indicating him to go inside. And he faced the door, intending to see immediately whether the person who came in was a human or a ghost.
Listening to the footsteps, it must be someone.
But at this point, will the boy in the photo really come home?
Jiang Yue didn't believe it intuitively.
First of all, the time was wrong, and secondly, if that boy was going home, there was no reason to reach the 18th floor unimpeded in this ghost building.
"mom?"
The door has been opened, and Jiang Yue torches towards the other party.
It's too late, but it's soon.
The person who opened the door raised his arm and fired several shots in a row.
This scene happened suddenly.
Obviously, Jiang Yue was guarding the other party behind the door, and the other party was calling her "Mom". He seemed heartless, but in fact he was secretly scheming!
It would have been impossible for anyone to dodge this head-on shooting, and they would have to drink the bullet with hatred.
Jiang Yue was an accident.
The bullets poured out, and when they approached his body, they were completely unable to penetrate under the defense of the Cloud Shield Talisman, and fell to the ground with a bang.
The defensive power of the cloud shield talisman was even stronger, so that it would not bounce the bullets out, but it seemed like a force of skill unloaded the bullets, and they fell to the ground one after another.
The man obviously didn't expect that he would miss when he fired face to face, and he was extremely surprised for a moment. There was no time to think about it, and the trigger was pulled again, pouring out all the bullets in the magazine.
However, the result is still in vain.
The bullet was clearly close to the surface of Jiang Yue's body, but for some reason, it just couldn't penetrate. This counter-intuitive phenomenon shocked the other party. The gun was thrown at Jiang Yue's body and his body fell back.
Jiang Yue reacted faster than the other person. He picked up the gun and threw it with his backhand, hitting the man's leg bone. The man groaned, but without stopping, he limped around the corner of the corridor and disappeared into the darkness.
When Luo Chu heard the gunfire, he rushed out immediately and raised his hand to shoot into the darkness, but was stopped by Jiang Yue.
"Xiao Jiang, is this a human being?"
Jiang Yue was noncommittal, looking at the figure disappearing into the darkness, thoughtfully.
Luo Chu was very puzzled. How could a survivor finally appear? Why not stop him and interrogate him? The life and death of ghosts are controlled by people, but living people can't be controlled by people, right?
But now that Jiang Yue has made a decision? Luo Chu can't say much.
"Xiao Jiang? Are you okay?"
Luo Chu looked Jiang Yue up and down, and there were two consecutive gunshots just now. Luo Chu was lying if he said he wasn't worried? It would be weird to miss him if he fired from such a close range.
But it seemed like Jiang Yue was unscathed.
Is it because the opponent's shooting skills are too poor? Or is Jiang Yue really not afraid of bullets?
As for the speculation that Jiang Yue is not afraid of bullets, the Star City Operations Bureau's Operations Division 3 has already discussed it. When we first tracked the disappearance of Yunshan Times Square and the attacks on Jiang Yue and Han Jingjing, it was clear that there were violent shootings at the scene. But Jiang Yue was unscathed.
Including that unfinished building? Jiang Yue called him to deal with the two mysterious people who had patterns on their chests and committed suicide by taking potassium cyanide poison. There were also shootings at the scene.
All in all, it seems that he has always been able to escape any shooting related to Jiang Yue.
This aspect also confirms that ordinary bullets may not be able to harm Jiang Yue.
This ability is really enviable to Luo Chu.
Although their operations department has some means of self-protection, when it comes to encountering various emergencies, their life-saving means are really far behind Jiang Yue's. They are not on the same level at all.
Jiang Yue looked at the time and sighed: "Luo Chu? It's almost nine o'clock. What if this young man really went home from his self-study on Friday? From Star City No. 1 Middle School to here? It's probably only half an hour. We can't Are you going to die without saving me?"
For a social person like Mr. Ke, Jiang Yue didn't have that strong feeling.
After all, Mr. Ke’s disasters were actually caused by himself.
But that young man, including his mother, was actually completely innocent.
My mother's soul was gone, and she didn't even know where her body had gone. Jiang Yue really couldn't bear to watch his son fly into flames and risk his life again.
"What should we do? Go downstairs?"
Go downstairs?
Jiang Yue shook his head, he would definitely not be able to go downstairs. It was decided the moment they entered the building, either they would stay. Or they break and leave.
If they can't break the trap of this ghost building, they will definitely be trapped here forever.
In fact, Jiang Yue knew very well that the other party had been testing their depth before, but now it was actually time to show off.
Those ghosts failed to attack them, and the other party switched to fire attacks.
After the fire attack failed, another gunman was sent!
This time it was actually to kill them, it was clear.
In other words, the trial phase is over.
The other party must feel threatened by them, so they must kill them at all costs.
It was completely unrealistic for them to go downstairs at this time.
Not to mention that this place is shrouded in ghost mist and blocked by ghost energy. Who knows how many ambushes are there along the way? Who knows how many pitfalls there are?
Don't let the other party lead you by the nose.
Jiang Yue decided to go all out to seize the initiative.
That was why he stopped Luo Chu from shooting just now.
He had met the person just now, and he could confirm that he was definitely not the boy from Star City No. 1 Middle School in the 1811 apartment building.
Of course it's not the Master Liu that Jiang Yue guessed.
However, Jiang Yue could basically tell from his shooting technique and escape skills that the other party must have received professional training.
How could such a person appear in an apartment building?
This also indirectly proves Jiang Yue's previous guess that the series of cases in this apartment building are indeed not only caused by ghosts, but also by human factors.
Of course, one must go downstairs, but Jiang Yue was particular about how to get downstairs.
Seeing Jiang Yue following along the corridor unhurriedly, Luo Chu was secretly frightened.
He was a little confused. If Jiang Yue's eyes were not clear and his wisdom was not diminished, he would even doubt whether Jiang Yue was crazy.
"Luo Chu, follow me." Jiang Yue warned softly.
Luo Chu followed Jiang Yue and shuttled through the corridors. In the boundless darkness, even two torches were far from enough to bring them a sufficient sense of security.
Luo Chu, in particular, was sweating every step he took. He always felt that there were countless dangers lurking in this endless darkness, and there might be some attack at any time, threatening their existence.
Before they knew it, the two of them were walking through the corridor in the dark.
We walked to the corridor on the 18th floor.
Jiang Yue didn't say anything about going upstairs or going downstairs. His eyes were always staring intently into the void, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Luo Chu felt more and more worried.
He was about to ask, but was interrupted by Jiang Yue's gesture.
Standing at the entrance of the corridor, Jiang Yue simply stopped.
Sitting on the steps, he didn't move forward or retreat.
Luo Chu really couldn't figure it out for a moment. He held up the torch and looked around, taking in all the troubles, for fear of being attacked in the dark.
Jiang Yue's state made Luo Chu really feel unsure.
Following Jiang Yue's gaze, he saw nothing but endless darkness and void, and nothing strange at all. Why was Jiang Yue's gaze so persistent, as if he was observing something all the time.
Luo Chu couldn't help but glance into the void a few more times, wanting to see what Jiang Yue was observing.
Is there really something in this void that I can't see?
But if something was really happening, why didn't Jiang Yue say anything or remind him?
You're not really crazy, are you?
Just when Luo Chu was suspicious, Jiang Yue stood up again. He went back to room 1811 and simply sat on the sofa.
During this period, Jiang Yue remained silent and didn't know what he was thinking. Occasionally, he would look through the things on the desk in the living room, as if he was serious about it.
But Luo Chu has always had a pair of eagle eyes in this line of work. He could clearly see that Jiang Yue was looking through these things just for show and absent-mindedly.
His actual thoughts are not on these things.
This made Luo Chu's heart move. Although he didn't know what Jiang Yue's intention was, he also judged that Jiang Yue must have his own plan.
The reason why they don't tell them clearly is probably because their every move, word and deed may be under the surveillance of their opponents.
Although the building has a power outage, the surveillance throughout the building is of no use.
But who knows how many tricks the mastermind behind this building used?
Especially those erratic ghosts, they are the best mobile surveillance. Easier to use than monitoring probes.
After all, as long as the probe knows where it is, it can barely be avoided.
But ghosts are erratic and invisible, making them difficult to avoid.
Luo Chu recalled everything that happened tonight and felt deeply grateful. At the same time, I also found it incredible.
Luo Chu didn't know why the ghost attacked him before. When the ghost approached him, not only did it not succeed, but it suffered severe backlash!
The reason for this was not clear to Luo Chu himself.
In the subsequent fire attack, in that situation, he was already desperate, but in the end, he was miraculously unscathed.
This magical experience was probably due to being by Jiang Yue's side.
If you act alone, you may be in trouble.
Therefore, at this moment, even though Jiang Yue's arrival seemed a bit strange, Luo Chu decided to trust Jiang Yue and follow Jiang Yue's rhythm.
All he can do is cooperate with Jiang Yue, try his best, and never cause trouble!
After staying in the apartment for a while, Jiang Yue suddenly stood up and returned to the corridor. This time, he actually went upstairs.
Luo Chu simply didn't ask any more questions. The two seemed to have a tacit understanding.
After reaching the 19th floor, Jiang Yue casually walked to an apartment, opened the door, entered the room and pretended to check it out again. He does all this seemingly seriously.
But in Luo Chu's opinion, it was completely useless.
Seeing the time passing by, Luo Chu felt really anxious.
But Jiang Yue didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
After leaving the apartment, he started wandering in the corridor again.
Then they came to the corridor entrance on the 19th floor, and Luo Chu couldn't bear it any longer.
If you want to search floor by floor, you should also search apartment by apartment. What's the point of only checking one of the apartments like Jiang Yue?
Just as he was about to ask, Jiang Yue suddenly asked: "Luo Chu, this apartment is on the 30th floor, right?"
Luo Chu was a little confused by this question.
Isn't this obvious?
Jiang Yue nodded: "Let's go downstairs and have a look."
"Which floor are you going to?"
"Let's go and see."
Jiang Yue's words were concise and to the point, and Luo Chu couldn't get any useful information at all from his words.
However, Luo Chu was at least certain that Jiang Yue was indeed not crazy. There must be a deep meaning behind his seemingly aimless actions.
On the way downstairs, Jiang Yue still took his time.
However, every time Jiang Yue went down a floor, he had to circle around the corridor on that floor. He seemed to be investigating something, and he seemed to be just taking a quick look.
However, Luo Chu noticed that the previously chaotic floors were now completely restored. Probably because the deception didn't escape Jiang Yue, the other party didn't seem to do these little tricks anymore.
This time, he went directly to the tenth floor.
What surprised Luo Chu even more was that he didn't encounter any strange attacks or make any mistakes along the way from the 19th floor to the 10th floor.
It was as if the haunting ghosts were collectively asleep.
In this way, they reached the tenth floor easily, and the journey was smooth.
Luo Chu looked at the time, it was twenty-one-twenty minutes in the evening.
If the young man wants to go home on Friday night, he should arrive home in about ten minutes based on a normal journey.
But based on how smoothly I went downstairs just now, ten minutes seems to be enough.
But Jiang Yue, who had previously shouted that he could not wait to save others, seemed to be in no hurry at all.
Luo Chu couldn't help but remind him: "Xiao Jiang, we are on the tenth floor now."
"Well, the tenth floor. The height of this apartment is about 2.85 meters per floor. The tenth floor is less than thirty meters. There are sixteen rooms on each floor of the apartment. The perimeter of this corridor is at most It’s just over a hundred meters. Because it’s a zigzag corridor, so when we walk to the ends of the corridors on both sides, it’s at most thirty or forty meters, right?”
Luo Chu didn't know what Jiang Yue wanted to express, so he could only nod blankly.
"This is the tenth floor. It's only about twenty meters away from the first floor."
Jiang Yue seemed to be talking to himself.
But his footsteps did not stop, and he continued to walk leisurely in the corridor on the tenth floor. His eyes were deep and he kept staring into the darkness, not knowing exactly what he was looking for.
After walking down the corridor, Jiang Yue suddenly pushed open one of the apartments and walked into it with Luo Chu.
At this moment, the torch in Jiang Yue's hand was almost burning. Jiang Yue put out the torch smoothly.
Jiang Yue swept his sleeve and extinguished the torch in Luo Chu's hand.
Just when Luo Chu was surprised and wanted to speak, Jiang Yue suddenly held his hand in the darkness.
Luo Chu felt a tickle in his palm.
Soon he realized that Jiang Yue was actually writing in the palm of his hand.
"There are people in the apartment, about ten people."
"There are countless ghosts lingering around."
"Six people are on the first floor and four are on the top floor."
"There are ghosts on every floor, so it's hard to count them."
"There are a lot of ambushes on the first and second floors, not only ghosts, but also evil zombies!"
There were people and ghosts in the apartment, and Luo Chu was not surprised at all.
But how could there be zombies?
Luo Chu had read about this species in the weird files of the Action Bureau, but it was not in Star City at all.
Why are there zombies in Star City?
What he was more curious about was why Jiang Yue was able to figure out the details so clearly in a short period of time?
