On the top floor of the Laolang Group Building, Li Zhihan stuck his head out of the elevator and looked outside. He carefully walked out of the elevator door. Before any movement could be made, the elevator door slammed shut behind him.
When Li Zhihan reacted and pressed the down button, the elevator had already gone down from the 89th floor to the 65th floor at an extremely fast speed, while the other elevator next to it had been parked on the 34th floor, and there was no movement no matter how hard he pressed it.
Twenty minutes ago, she separated from Zhang Ziqing and the others. After copying the materials she needed, she prepared to return to Chen Hao's office on the 30th floor.
But I don’t know why, even though I pressed the button on the 30th floor, the elevator went all the way to the 89th floor, and it seemed that no colleague pressed the elevator button in the middle, so the elevator never stopped.
Li Zhihan didn't take it seriously, thinking it was an elevator malfunction, so he pressed the 30th floor and door-closing buttons again after the elevator reached the top floor.
But no matter how he pressed this time, Li Zhihan also tried the buttons on other floors, but there was no response. The elevator stopped in place, the elevator door opened wide, and it was dark outside. Lou, seemed to be telling Li Zhihan that this was the destination she should reach.
Li Zhihan was a little helpless, so he took out his mobile phone and called the logistics department, asking them to send someone over to take a look at the elevator.
But no matter how I called, whether it was to the logistics department or directly to Chen Hao or someone else, my mobile phone would prompt that I had no signal and the call could not be made.
Li Zhihan frowned, and after hesitating for a moment, he pressed the three numbers 110 on his phone.
Every mobile phone does not require a signal to make emergency calls.
After calling 110, although the call was connected after a few rings, no matter what Li Zhihan said or how loud his voice was, there was no response at all.
Li Zhihan thought the signal was too poor, and the first call had some effect, so he quickly called a few more times, but the result was the same every time. The call could be connected, but there was no sound at all from the other party.
After trying various methods in the elevator room, Li Zhihan found that he could not contact the outside world. After hesitating, he cautiously walked out of the elevator room to see if the other elevator could be used.
After Li Zhihan stepped out of the elevator, the first scene happened. The elevator door that had been open for more than 20 minutes behind her closed the door tightly after she walked out, and then went downstairs at an extremely fast speed. Another elevator has been stuck on the 34th floor without any movement. No matter how hard I press the down button, there is no response.
Li Zhihan took a breath of air. She didn't know what was happening here now, but she didn't panic and scream like most girls when encountering such a thing. Instead, she patted herself a little harder. face, trying to use the pain to calm down first before speaking.
After standing in the dark space and thinking for a while, Li Zhihan immediately took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, looking for the emergency exit signs on this floor, and wanted to go down the stairwell.
The layout of each floor of this building is similar. Although he has not been to the 89th floor a few times, Li Zhihan still groped forward based on his memory of the direction of the stairwell from downstairs.
But after turning around, Li Zhihan discovered a problem.
The 80th floor and above of the building are vacant. At the beginning of the year, we originally planned to rent it out, but there were some things in the company that delayed it.
So now the 89th floor is even a rough room that has not been renovated. It has a cement floor and nothing is placed. The visibility is too low to rely only on the small amount of light from the mobile phone flashlight, and it is impossible to see. Looking at the overall view of this floor, it seemed to Li Zhihan that no matter how he turned around, the place in front of him was exactly the same, and he couldn't tell where the entrance to the stairwell was.
After wandering around the empty eighty-ninth floor for about half an hour, Li Zhihan stopped and looked at his phone, which still had 14% battery. He could no longer suppress the anxiety in his heart and began to panic. He shouted for help.
"Hey! Is anyone there?! Help! I'm trapped here!!"
Li Zhihan shouted aimlessly, not knowing which direction he should be heading, so he simply shouted while walking, shouting a few words from all directions.
It's just that the result is still the same and no one can give a response.
Li Zhihan squatted on the ground in frustration, letting the documents in her hand scatter on the floor, but at this time she had no intention of caring about it anymore. She just felt that her mind was blank and she had no idea how to deal with the current situation.
Squatting on the ground and staring at the light of the flashlight in a daze, Li Zhihan suddenly realized something and quickly opened the phone screen and looked at the time on the phone.
Eighteen twenty-three.
Seeing this time, Li Zhihan suddenly broke down in cold sweat, and his scalp suddenly felt numb.
It's May now, which is actually summer for the south, so it usually gets dark around eight o'clock.
It's only around six o'clock in the afternoon. Logically speaking, it's still quite bright outside. This building has glass windows, so it should be bright.
But now no matter which direction Li Zhihan looked, it was pitch black.
Li Zhihan swallowed nervously, stood up from the ground, and walked cautiously in the other direction.
Sure enough, no matter where you go, you can't see any light, and if you explore carefully, you will find that you seem to be trapped in a dark room with no boundaries, and you can't get out no matter how you walk. All that can be seen is the gray concrete road.
Thinking of this, Li Zhihan's heart completely cooled down, and his phone also sounded a warning sound that the battery was less than 10%.
If her phone is out of battery, her last source of light will be gone, and her surroundings will be completely plunged into darkness. She will not be able to see anything, let alone find a way out of here.
Thinking of this, Li Zhihan became anxious again. She shook her head and regained confidence in herself. She stood up from where she was and started groping in random directions. She had to find a way out or something else before her phone ran out of battery. light source, otherwise she would not dare to think about what her situation would be like next.
But confidence and courage alone are useless, and the situation will not get better.
Ten percent battery wouldn't last long, so twenty minutes later, as the phone's shutdown animation came on, Li Zhihan was completely plunged into darkness in this room.
Standing there, looking at the darkness around him, Li Zhihan couldn't help but collapse emotionally. He sat down and hugged his legs and cried.
From the moment the elevator reached the 89th floor, she had been forcing herself to be strong, not to just give up the struggle, and to find a way back.
But in the current situation, with endless darkness, she didn't know what to do next. She couldn't find the exit when she had a flashlight, not to mention that she couldn't see anything now.
After sitting there and crying for an unknown amount of time, Li Zhihan felt that her tears were almost gone and her emotions had been released, so she wiped her tears, raised her head, and looked around, but the vast darkness around her made her fall into In despair.
Li Zhihan bit his lip and began to think about whether to stand up and continue looking for a way out, or continue to sit here and not struggle. Anyway, if he disappeared for too long, someone would definitely come looking for him.
While Li Zhihan was still hesitating, there was suddenly a sound of footsteps in the darkness.
Li Zhihan was a little happy and quickly asked loudly: "Hello? Is anyone there? I'm trapped here. I am Li Zhihan from the Administration Department, Mr. Chen's secretary!"
But after Li Zhihan finished shouting, no one responded to her voice in the darkness, but the footsteps still didn't stop, and they sounded closer than before.
Li Zhihan was stunned for a moment. Didn't the other party hear? There shouldn't be. There was no other sound in this room. It was so quiet. Even breathing and footsteps could be heard clearly. How could it be possible that the other party didn't respond after I asked for help? I couldn't...
Li Zhihan suddenly shuddered, and a somewhat terrifying idea came to his mind.
No matter how stupid she is, no matter how bad her brain is, she can still see from the current situation that there is something wrong with this so-called room that appeared out of thin air on the 89th floor.
On such a sunny day, it was not even dusk yet, and there was no light in the entire room. Even with completely black curtains, a little light could shine through.
Moreover, after the elevator brought him to this floor, he immediately returned downstairs. He spent a long time looking for this room with a flashlight. Not to mention the stairwell, even the elevator entrance just disappeared out of thin air.
In addition, she had been searching for almost an hour. Let alone the 89th floor, one hour was enough for her to go around the company.
So this is not a mechanical failure at all, nor is my sense of direction lost.
Nine times out of ten, it's because I've encountered a ghost!
The owner of the footsteps heard his cry for help and did not respond. This could only be because he was not from any company, but that... ghost!
Thinking of this, Li Zhihan felt despair in his heart.
Before this, she had always been a staunch materialist and believed that there was no such thing as ghosts in this world.
But now this short one-hour experience has destroyed her world view of more than 20 years ago. Ghosts actually exist!
And if we follow what is said in horror movies, ghosts are generally afraid of the sun and dare not come out during the day. This kind of ghost who dares to come out to harm people in broad daylight can only show that his Taoism is very advanced and he is not even an ordinary ghost.
Thinking of this, Li Zhihan quickly reached out to cover his mouth and nose, slowed down his breathing, took off his high heels, and held the shoes in his hands, not daring to make a sound.
Although she already knows that the owner of this footsteps is most likely not a human being, Li Zhihan still doesn't want to just sit back and wait for death. She is only 24 years old this year and still has a lot of youth left.
After taking off her high heels, Li Zhihan tried hard to identify the direction of the footsteps, but she soon discovered that this method was useless.
The footsteps did not come from a certain direction at all, but came from all directions. No matter which direction I listened, the footsteps seemed to come from that direction.
Li Zhihan swallowed and felt a little flustered, but after thinking for a moment, she began to move in a random direction.
Since he didn't know which direction the footsteps came from, he might as well start walking around and just rely on luck. If he was lucky, he might never be able to catch him. If he was not lucky, let's forget about it.
But Li Zhihan soon discovered that this was only theoretically possible. If he wanted to escape from the ghost, this little thought was not enough.
No matter which direction he ran away, Li Zhihan could feel the footsteps getting louder and louder, obviously getting closer to him.
Li Zhihan quickly became uneasy after realizing that he couldn't escape the footsteps at all. He sped up and walked aimlessly in circles. Although he could never get rid of the panicking footsteps, at least moving by himself could give him some peace of mind. .
But soon Li Zhihan stopped where he was and stopped moving around.
Because she found that the footsteps stopped. Judging from the loudness of the footsteps before they stopped, if her feeling was correct, the so-called ghost should have stopped next to her.
As if to verify his conjecture, Li Zhihan felt that the temperature around him began to drop sharply. It was clearly over 30 degrees today. He had just been walking around in this room for a long time and was already sweating.
But now it's as if the cold air conditioner is placed in a circle around him, and almost all the surroundings are filled with chills.
Li Zhihan hugged his shoulders and shuddered, looked around in horror, and widened his eyes, trying to see clearly what was around him.
It seemed that he felt that Li Zhihan had discovered him, and the ghost simply stopped hiding himself, so Li Zhihan soon discovered that there was an invisible white figure next to him.
Li Zhihan's heart trembled, and he rubbed his eyes, trying to look down on the white figure.
But the figure kept stopping about four or five meters away from Li Zhihan, and did not move any closer. It just stayed there, "looking at" Li Zhihan.
Li Zhihan couldn't help but take two steps back, and then she discovered that the ghost couldn't see any movement at all, but it could be seen with the naked eye that it also moved with her, keeping this distance.
Li Zhihan held his breath. Since the other party had discovered him and could follow him immediately no matter how he moved, he might as well give up and just stand still in a stalemate with him.
One person and one ghost stood there for a long time. Just when Li Zhihan was about to relax and thought they would stay like this forever, the white figure suddenly began to move forward.
Seeing that the ghost was getting closer and closer to him, with only one or two meters away, Li Zhihan could no longer care about anything else, just found a direction and ran away, using the greatest strength in his life.
After running for an unknown amount of time, Li Zhihan finally couldn't run anymore. He felt his legs soften and he fell heavily to the ground. There was a stream of hot liquid flowing down from his knees. It must have been Broken.
Li Zhihan resisted the pain and sat up, wanting to look back and see how far away the ghost was from him.
But soon, her head was fixed there, because at the nape of her neck, there was a biting coldness and weak airflow, just like the sound of breathing, and the exhaled air hit her hard. On her neck.
That ghost is behind her now! And it's almost close to her!
After discovering this situation, Li Zhihan's whole body became cold, and he fell to the ground as soon as his body went limp, his eyes looking above blankly.
Now that we are in the current situation, we might as well just wait for death. There is no way we can escape from the ghost's hands.
Sure enough, after he completely gave up struggling, the ghost was soon ready to attack him.
From the perspective of Li Zhihan lying down, the white figure was suspended parallel in the air, floating directly above Li Zhihan.
Li Zhihan swallowed and quickly closed her eyes. She didn't want to see what the ghost looked like. She might as well just be killed by the ghost happily.
Just when Li Zhihan thought her life was about to end, a hand suddenly patted her shoulder.
Li Zhihan didn't respond. She thought it was the ghost testing her.
But the next moment, Li Zhihan's eyes widened in surprise because a familiar voice came from his ears.
"Hey, what's your name? Are you still alive?"
