Manzhu Shahua huddled tightly in a room, listening to the sounds outside the door.

Not long ago she met Jiu Ming, a fellow hunter.

The survivor "Safe Life 658" who was connected to Jiu Ming told Jiu Ming that two escapees were being followed by ghosts in the office building. He hoped that he could tell the two escapees that they were being followed through other hunters.

When the call was answered, Jiu Ming was on his way to Café de Coral. He had already guessed that the game of hide and seek might restrict ghosts, so he was now focused on how to restrict ghosts. The matter of catching escapees had already been Leave it behind.

So of course he wouldn't bother to notify the hunters and ask them to help deliver the message. Even if all the survivors in this dungeon were wiped out, it had nothing to do with him, so Nine Lives didn't care about it at all.

Although he didn't intend to care about the escapees, after answering the phone, Jiu Ming accidentally met Manzhu Shahua who was alone.

There was nothing to lose by telling her about it. Jiu Ming immediately told Manzhu Shahua about it without paying much attention.

However, the escapee connected to Manzhu Shahua was a player named "This nickname has been taken", and was not one of the two being tracked.

Although she had no way of informing the two escapees who were being followed by ghosts, she had other ideas in mind.

"I came here in such a hurry just to catch a leak... Even if the ghost really attacks, one of the two survivors can always escape, right? As long as you escape, you will definitely run down," Manzhu Shahua hid in the fifteenth He stood in front of the house at the top of the stairs and said to himself, "But why is there still no movement at all after such a long time?"

She had originally gone up to the nineteenth floor, but to be on the safe side, she went down a few more floors, and finally chose to hide on the fifteenth floor.

She hid here just to block the escapees who were escaping downwards.

There are two survivors. As long as the ghost chases one of them, the other survivor can escape.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The ghost is chasing other escapees, so he must not have time to mind other people's business here.

As long as you hide here, you have a high probability of succeeding!

Wealth and honor are sought in danger, and no one would have thought that the hunter would pursue the escapee at the risk of being caught by a ghost.

Manzhu Shahua waited quietly: "Could it be that the ghost had already attacked the two escapees on my way here?"

"No, my speed is already fast enough... I even used special items to get here in time. The ghost probably hasn't made a move yet. I'll wait a little longer..."

As she thought, she moved her head in the darkness so that her ears were closer to the door.

Sure enough, she didn't wait long before the silence was broken by the sound of someone rushing downstairs.

Manzhushahua pricked up her ears and listened carefully to what was going on outside.

Ji Bieli listened to the sounds upstairs, and there seemed to be no movement above, which meant that the thing just now had not followed.

She breathed a sigh of relief and bent down slightly while hiding in the doorway.

Fortunately I run fast...

As she thought about it, her mind was spinning rapidly.

The doctor who just called her told her that there was a hunter following her.

Now that she has run through so many levels, why doesn't she encounter any hunter following her?

Could it be that the doctor who just spoke to me was lying?

No, it was unlikely. If he was lying, he wouldn't be able to guess his floor location so accurately.

By the way, what level is it now?

Ji Bieli thought as she stretched out her head to look at the sticker on the wall next to her. This was the sixteenth floor.

"Sixteenth floor..." She retracted her head again, "I ran down only seven floors and ran out of energy. Maybe it was because I spent too much energy climbing the stairs..."

But why hasn’t the hunter the doctor mentioned appeared?

Ji Bieli remembered that the person who had just called him said that the hunter had reached the nineteenth floor, but now that he had descended to the sixteenth floor, he could not see the shadow of that person.

She held her breath gently and listened to the movement outside.

If the hunter is still there, he should be above the nineteenth floor, right?

There was still no movement above, and the hunter could not be killed by the ghost. She had previously speculated that the ghost could not attack the hunter.

Why didn't you meet anyone? How strange.

At this time, Ji Bieli had already rested, and she got out from behind the door: "Ignore the hunter for now, the ghost above may come down at any time, I have to leave this ghost place quickly..."

She muttered to herself as she walked towards the stairs.

But just when she took the first step, something suddenly felt wrong.

"I made such a big noise just now. If there are hunters nearby, they will definitely follow the sound and chase them, but so far I have not heard any movement from others."

"I made such a loud noise, but no hunter showed up. This means...she hid it on purpose!"

Why are they hiding on purpose? Hunters will never be afraid of escapees and other hunters. They are only afraid of ghosts. That is, the hunter who is following them knows that there is a ghost in this building!

In an instant, Ji Bieli suddenly understood why he had not encountered the hunter following him even after going down so many floors.

She looked at the dark staircase in front of her, as if the staircase in front of her was no longer a staircase at that moment, but a passage to hell.

"Since it is known that there is a ghost above, the hunter will definitely take a conservative approach and stay away from the ghost... The hunter who has reached the nineteenth floor will definitely regret going to the floor below."

If he escaped directly, then forget it, but what if the hunter didn't escape?

Moreover, Ji Bieli had never heard the sound of anyone escaping in a hurry before.

"That person is probably still hiding in this building! He's on the floor below, waiting for me to escape down, and then catch him..."

no! Absolutely not going down!

For a moment, Ji Bie was in a dilemma.

Up is the ghost, down is the ambush hunter.

Now both up and down are dead ends.

The difference is that if you go up, you may die more miserably, but if you go down, you may die more comfortably in the hands of a hunter.

But no matter whether it is comfortable or not, in the end it is the word death!

"Do you want to bet? Bet on whether the hunter who followed me escaped from this building?"

Ji Bieji took a deep breath and looked at the dark stairs.

She knew she didn't have much choice.

The ghosts above will come down at any time, and the hunters hiding below will also go upstairs to check at any time.

Moreover, she had no idea which floor the hunter was hiding on. It was very likely that she would see the terrifying hunter when she turned the corner.

what to do? what to do?

Ji Bieli wanted to ask for help now.

But now no one else would care about her in this quiet place.

The only thing that can communicate with the outside world is the cell phone given by the copy in my hand...

She thought for a few seconds, then made a snap decision. She held her phone and retreated into the corridor. She randomly selected a room to enter, then huddled in a corner and made a call.

Gu Mian had just walked around the office building when her cell phone rang in her pocket.

You don't even have to look at it, it's definitely Ji Bielie calling because this phone can only talk to Ji Bielie.

He didn't think much and answered the phone.

Immediately afterwards, a faint voice came from the microphone.

The voice was so quiet that Gu Mian almost thought that Ji Biejie was so angry that he was about to die.

But it turns out that the player connected to him is still alive and well, but he is alive and well now, but it is not certain whether he will be alive and well after a while.

During the phone call, Ji Bieli described the current situation to Gu Mian concisely and to the point. It didn't take long, only a dozen seconds.

Most people will stutter and slur their words when they are nervous. What is rare is that Ji Biejie did not stutter, but spoke fluently, which made Gu Mian immediately understand her current situation.

In short, "There are silent ghosts upstairs, and there are silent hunters downstairs." Ask which way to die.

Gu Mian really wanted to help her open up a third path, such as trying to jump out of the window. Of course, if she had the [Law of the Protagonist's Immortality by Jumping off a Cliff], she could give it a try.

But Ji Bieli obviously didn't have such a magical weapon.

So Gu Mian put forward her opinion very sincerely: "Up."

As he spoke, he quickened his pace around the office building. Gu Mian originally wanted to come to this office building to have a look at the ghost's face, but when she came downstairs, she suddenly discovered that behind this office building There is a playground not far away.

The tall jumping machine is very conspicuous, although it can't continue to perform free fall movements at this time.

"But there is a high chance that you will meet ghosts when you go up." Ji Bie took a deep breath.

"You said that the ghost suddenly stopped moving when it was chasing you. I guessed that it might have stopped on a certain floor and was searching. It would be best to go upstairs at this time. The ghost would never guess that you were back where you were being chased before. Go up to the killing floor."

Ji Bieli bit her lip: "Yes! What you said makes sense... But what if when I go upstairs, it happens to have finished searching a floor and is going down the stairs?"

Gu Mian touched his chin. He didn't tell Ji that ghosts seemed to be able to teleport.

In his opinion, if a ghost chasing a person suddenly stops moving, it is most likely that it has teleported to another place.

In other words, the ghost is probably no longer on the upper level at this time.

However, it is only a possibility and cannot be determined.

Gu Mian thought as she said, "The office building has more than just one staircase, right? At least two."

Ji Bieli suddenly realized: "You want me to go up the other stairs?"

"No," Gu Mian denied, "Just go up the stairs you escaped from."

Ji Bie was a little stunned.

"Since the ghost will stop and search the floor, it means that it also suspects that you will use deception to deceive it, and judging from its erratic behavior in the copy, this ghost is not mentally retarded, and seems to be planning something; this kind of An intelligent person would definitely suspect that you slipped onto another staircase and continued down the stairs."

When Gu Mian said this, she paused for a moment, and then continued: "Are you standing on the stairs where you escaped?"

Ji bid farewell and nodded, even though he knew the other party couldn't see him nod.

"That's right," Gu Mian said, "I haven't heard the sound of coming downstairs for a while. It's very likely that the ghost has moved to another staircase, so you'd better go faster, it will come down at any time. Search your floor."

Ji Biejie didn't have any ink at this time. After thanking him, he hung up the phone.

She looked at the stairs in front of her, took a deep breath, then raised her feet and ran up quickly.

Gu Mian watched the other party hang up the phone and put the phone back into his pocket.

Although there is a good chance that the ghost is no longer in the building now, it's always a good idea to be careful.

He thought as he continued walking towards the amusement park ahead.

Manzhushahua waited for a long time, but did not wait for the people above to come down.

She couldn't bear the loneliness, so she slowly opened the door and looked outside.

The corridor was extremely dark, with a slight light leaking in from the window at one end. The entire corridor could only be seen with this light.

Looking at the empty stairs, Manzhu Shahua frowned strangely: "That shouldn't be the case. One of them should run down. Is it possible that the ghost was so powerful that he killed two survivors together?"

Just as she was talking to herself, she suddenly heard a sound coming up the stairs.

It came from the top of my head!

She was excited. Could it be that the escapees above had discovered that I was below?

There is a ghost up there, and the escapees would rather go to the ghost and die than come down?

Just when Manzhu Shahua took out his flashlight and considered whether to catch up, another sound of going upstairs rang again.

This time the sound came from below.

Manzhu Shahua immediately took two steps back and stared at the stairs in front of her with some vigilance.

There are two people.

One goes up the stairs.

One is going up the stairs below, and the one below is getting closer to her!

While alert, she listened carefully to the movement below.

The sound below seemed a little hasty, not like the sound a ghost would make when climbing up the stairs.

Manzhushahua couldn't help but frowned and hid behind the stair door waiting for the people below to come up.

It would be great if he was an escapee...

She prayed silently.

Even if you don't catch the one above, it's not a big loss if you catch another one.

Sure enough, the footsteps going upstairs got closer and closer, and it wasn't until the footsteps resounded on this floor that Manzhu Shahua could clearly see the person coming.

It was a person, but she had never seen it.

The hunters have all met each other, and the strangers are definitely the escapees!

I saw this man sneaking up the stairs. He was a young man. At this time, the distance between the two was very close. Manzhu Shahua had even seen his player nickname.

"This nickname is already taken"

He happened to be the escapee connected to his phone!

What a coincidence.

She silently huddled at the door, motionless, waiting for this unlucky guy to be closest to her and then strike to annihilate him!

Seeing the escapees getting closer and closer, they had almost reached the stairs on this floor.

Manzhushahua was a little excited.

But at this moment, she suddenly realized that something was wrong in the back of her head.
