Noticing the other person's gaze and seeing that the other person was silent, Smith didn't care about it at all, and continued with a puzzled look on his face: "Well, in your eyes, I am a foreigner. In fact, some problems are really difficult for me. To clarify, there is one detail that I still can't figure out, and that is... I noticed that you always look nervous when you mention the locust, so I would like to ask, what exactly is the locust? Is it related to us? Do the ghost moths used by Americans mean the same thing?"
Um?
Since she really didn't expect a black man to ask such a question out of the blue, Cheng Ying paused slightly after hearing this.
Faced with the above questions, for some reason, Cheng Ying, who has always ignored black people, responded this time, and then gave Smith a rare answer. At the same time, Smith, who had not had high hopes, was immediately overjoyed. The only surprise was that Cheng Ying Sakura's subsequent answer surprised him.
That's because Cheng Ying only said one sentence in a brief tone:
"This thing exists specifically for killing. They have different abilities. They are cruel and bloodthirsty. Once you are listed as a target, you and the wolf will have no choice but to fight to the death!".
After saying that, Cheng Ying turned her head and stopped looking at him. Smith also instinctively lowered his head and remained silent, seeming to be carefully savoring the meaning of his words. After a long time, when Smith had a thought in his mind, he raised his head again and continued to ask questions...
Ding!
Suddenly, there was a noise, and the originally silent corridor was instantly broken by a voice!
………
At the same time, on the 7th floor.
The time has entered early morning and late at night. Usually, most people have fallen asleep at this time, but for Zhao Ping and Qian Xueling, sleeping is an impossible task.
As senior people, the two of them knew a lot about their own situation and the dangers. At the same time, they also understood more clearly that sleeping under such circumstances was tantamount to suicide, so even though it was already early in the morning, the two of them still maintained a high degree of vigilance.
Of course, not sleeping does not mean that you cannot rest. After exploring the corridor environment again, just when the two of them were about to sit down and rest to regain their strength...
Ding!
Suddenly, a crisp sound of the elevator spread throughout the surroundings and directly reached his ears.
His heart skipped a beat and his brows furrowed. Zhao Ping stood up first. At the same time, Qian Xueling turned his eyes and both looked in the direction of the sound more than ten meters away. Not only that, if you look carefully, you can also find out that the two of them except Looking around, everyone's right hands were stretched out in their pockets, as if they were on guard. .
Why be on guard? The answer is not only driven by the instinct of being in danger, but the real reason comes from the corridor itself, which comes from the fact that there is no elevator in the corridor!
Yes, since the two were trapped in the corridor, they have searched and observed carefully. They also tried to find an elevator in the early days of being trapped. However, no matter where they went, just like the stairs, the two never found an elevator in the corridor. It is conceivable that when you hear the sound of an elevator in a corridor where there are no elevators due to supernatural restrictions, it is obvious that such a sudden noise can be normal. How to prevent the two of them from looking nervous and on guard?
Sure enough, as soon as Xun Sheng turned his gaze forward, a shocking scene unfolded before his eyes:
Ten meters ahead, on the left, a door appeared out of thin air in the wall of the originally empty corridor after a noise, an elevator door exuding metallic luster!
"This, electric...elevator?"
Seeing the strange scene, Qian Xueling was dumbfounded and confused for a moment. The reason is not difficult to understand. Although it is logical that it is normal for the floor to have an elevator, in fact, she and Zhao Ping were both trapped. Being blocked, they were trapped in the corridor and could not escape, and since the corridor was closed, all the ways to leave have also disappeared, including the elevator. Since the elevator has long since disappeared, how can this elevator that has disappeared for a long time come to this moment? Reappear? Especially when you see the elevator door appearing out of thin air, the feeling of confusion and weirdness is unbearable.
The above are the truest thoughts in Qian Xueling's mind after seeing the elevator. .
Thoughts are just thoughts after all. In fact, as the elevator appeared out of thin air, after getting past the fleeting doubt, what the beautiful woman really cared about now was the result.
That is, what to do next?
"Shall we go over and take a look?"
Because she could never make up her mind, Qian Xueling finally left the decision to the man with glasses next to her.
Listening to the woman's slightly panicked inquiry, Zhao Ping's already solemn face moved closer to Shen Sheng, and he immediately answered the other party. Not only did he answer quickly, but his tone was straightforward:
"Stay where you are!"
Yes, Zhao Ping is not the kind of reckless person. When facing unknown things, the man with glasses has always adhered to his consistent principle of vigilance and caution. His behavior often takes safety as a prerequisite, or in other words, he must ensure his own safety before doing anything. In fact, when Zhao Ping first discovered the elevator, he quickly shifted his gaze and looked elsewhere in the hope that the corridor would also appear. However, to his disappointment, through observation, in addition to the elevator that appeared out of thin air in front of him, there were still stairs and stairs nearby. There are no corners, and the corridor remains endless. .
Strictly speaking, it can be understood that the supernatural ban is still maintained and did not disappear on its own as expected. Only an elevator appeared inexplicably.
So, under Zhao Ping's stern orders, the two of them put their hands in their pockets on guard and stared at the elevator door.
As for the elevator.
Since the sound ended, the elevator door has remained quiet and silent, observing for a long time without any movement, until half a minute later...
Hooray.
With a soft door opening, the elevator door suddenly opened.
Seeing this, Zhao Ping and Qian Xueling's hearts tightened, and sweat broke out from their already clenched hands in their pockets. .
In the dead silence, staring at each other, more than ten meters away, the two people began to retreat, subconsciously retreating slowly.
Then, the two of them were stunned.
The source still came from the elevator opposite, because when the elevator door opened, a man walked out of it.
Um?
After confirming that the person coming out of the elevator was actually a human being, Qian Xueling was stunned, and Zhao Ping followed closely behind with a look of surprise.
As the saying goes, a Taoist is a highly adaptable creature. Because he is well aware of the strength of slugs and has been in danger many times during the period, for now, whether it is Zhao or Qian Xueling, they have long been used to it, used to being vigilant, and used to being weird. Even if you see a wolf in this closed corridor, you won't be surprised at all. This is true, and it is also true. As the elevator door slowly opens, the two of them are indeed prepared for scary things to come out of the elevator, but unexpectedly... Forget it, I didn’t expect that the person coming out of it would be a human being! ?
Yes, it is indeed a human being, a Caucasian man, about 50 years old, wearing a neat suit. Although his appearance is ordinary, his beard at the corners of his mouth is meticulously trimmed. Looking closely, he gives people the feeling of a successful person, but it is a pity that the impression is After all, it is an impression. For now, the man's demeanor and reaction have broken his original temperament. .
In the field of vision, the man has been frightened and flustered since he got out of the elevator. With an anxious and worried face, he walked anxiously and repeatedly at the elevator entrance like a bewildered mouse, until he suddenly stopped after a few steps. I noticed something out of the corner of my eye, and turned around out of curiosity, only to find two people standing not far away!
By the way, I am currently using the Zhuishu app to cache reading and read aloud offline!
"ah……"
The man was startled, and in a hurry, his body trembled, and he immediately looked at the opposite side with eyes that were like a hawk, staring at the two people opposite him intently.
The corridor was dead silent, and the atmosphere was strange. For a moment, the two parties ten meters apart looked at each other without saying a word.
Time passes by second by second. .
After a moment of silence, maybe curiosity outweighed fear or he discovered that the other person was just as human as himself. In the end, the middle-aged man took the lead and asked in a tentative tone: "Are you two alive?"
After hearing the question, Zhao Ping couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and then opened his mouth and asked: "What? Do you think we are dead people?"
After receiving Zhao Ping's answer, the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then he took a long breath as if he was completely sure of something. Then he strode forward with an embarrassed look on his face. He walked up to Zhao Ping and explained with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry. I saw too many dead people, so, I, I am very scared now..."
While the man was talking, Zhao Ping did notice the presence of large beads of sweat on the man's forehead. It was obvious that judging from the man's reaction and expression, this man was not lying.
not to mention……
Under the light, there is a shadow of the other party.
Once you have a plan in mind, the next step will be easy.
Sure enough, as soon as the man finished speaking, Zhao Ping put on a curious expression and continued: "Well, you do look like you are scared, but I don't know what happened to you or what scared you. Like this? And you just said there were dead people all the way...
Don't mind, sir, could you tell me what happened? ”.
Can……
For some reason, as soon as Zhao Ping asked the question, the next moment, the middle-aged man showed vigilance as if he suddenly remembered something. Not only did he not answer, but he asked with confusion on his face: "No! At present, except for the first three floors, they are all dead bodies. Everything is empty, you, why are you two here?"
Listening to what the other party said and watching the man's reaction, Zhao Ping was basically sure that the other party knew a lot or even understood a lot. He could clearly detect a lot of suspicious information just from the middle-aged man's words!
It is true that the best way to obtain information is to ask, to ask the characters in the plot, and I am indeed asking the other party. The only regret is that the other party is unwilling to answer, and a certain misunderstanding that is difficult to explain makes the other party doubt me and be wary of me. , so it is very possible that he and Qian Xueling were not regarded as human beings.
The Oriental man and woman did not answer before they met. As expected, the middle-aged man's vigilance became more intense. A second later, Xu Shi glanced at the gap. When the two people in front of him looked at each other, the middle-aged man moved. , suddenly turned around without warning and ran straight towards the elevator!
Da da da da da!
As mentioned above, because the other party could not answer the question or explain the reason, and he was already in a panic, the man had completely regarded Zhao Qian and Zhao Qian as aliens, as scary beings similar to mantis, at least in his subjective consciousness, the man and woman in front of him Very suspicious, not even human!
How can middle-aged people not be afraid in the face of unknown existences that look like humans but not humans? How not to run?
However, it is a pity that even if he saw the opportunity and ran away, even if he reacted quickly and ran away in a panic, in fact there was still an unavoidable cruel reality before him.
It was too late, but it was too soon. Just when the middle-aged man turned around and tried to run away, he felt something.
Suddenly, he felt a cold object pressing against the back of his head. At the same time, a plain words came directly into his ears from behind:
"If you think your legs can outrun a bullet, you can keep running."
Yes, at the moment when the middle-aged man panicked and tried to escape, Zhao Ping moved at the same time, making some moves at the same time. Lightning stretched out his hand, Lightning took it into his arms, and immediately took out a pistol!
He pushed a jet-black Type 56 pistol to the back of the man's head. .
There is no doubt about the origin of the pistol. It was the man with glasses who specially obtained it from Ye Wei during the Midnight Ring mission, and he has kept it to this day. Unexpectedly, it will be used again today.
Let’s not talk about the source of the guns for the moment, let’s not talk about Zhao Ping for the moment, what lies ahead...
"No, no, please don't shoot! Don't shoot! I believe it, I believe what you say!"
The pleading voice came directly, and the trembling body came into view. The middle-aged man believed it, completely believed it, or in other words, after confirming that there was indeed a gun behind his head, he completely believed that the other person was as human as himself. The reason is very simple. Will a wolf threaten humans with a gun?
The answer is obviously impossible! .
In addition, the United States is a country awash with guns, and the man also had no doubts about the guns in Zhao Ping's hands. So, the results came out. In order to save his life, in addition to pleading repeatedly, he even raised his hands to show surrender, fearing that the other party would shoot him.
Behind him, seeing that the pistol threat was really effective, he ignored the surprised expression on Qian Xueling's side. The man with glasses remained expressionless and calm. He thought for a moment, and finally ordered the middle-aged man: "Turn around and answer All the questions I asked next.”
Sure enough, with the threat of a gun, the middle-aged man instantly became honest. As soon as Zhao Ping finished speaking, the man turned around slowly with great interest. After seeing the black pistol with his own eyes, he confirmed that the threat was true. After turning around, the middle-aged man hurriedly obeyed his plea. His attitude was very respectful: "I'm sorry, I thought you two were disguised at first, so that's why I... Sir, please don't kill me, I'll give you everything you want, I'll answer whatever you ask, please... …”
"Shut up!".
A cold shout interrupted the man's nonsense. He raised his hand to adjust his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. Then, Zhao Ping went straight to the topic and opened his mouth to ask, asking the key question he wanted to know most at the moment:
"First explain to me what you mean by what you said above, and then give a complete account of all your personal experiences during this period, but I still have to warn you that if you deliberately lie or what you say is inconsistent with the information I have, then I will Shoot immediately and send you to your God immediately!"
