Chapter 856 Elevator

He would do his best to keep Lin Muwan and her brother, Lin Muyun, alive.

After being comforted, Lin Muwan's emotions stabilized slightly. From beginning to end, this girl showed only a persistent concern for her brother and companions, and never caused trouble for everyone because of panic.

After a moment, Lin Muwan picked up the notebook and wrote another line on it, then slowly raised it, her slightly red eyes looking at Jiang Cheng's face.

"I don't want anything to happen to you either."

Seeing these somewhat hasty words, Jiang Cheng's heart twitched unconsciously.

The words on the notebook were more like a command. Lin Muwan's beautiful eyes were filled with the purest worry, and fine strands of hair stuck to her face. The scene was so touching that it felt like a movie.

Looking at Lin Muwan's face, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but reach out to help her tidy the loose hair on her forehead.

Strength and timidity, two completely different emotions, appeared on her face at the same time, but strangely, there was no sense of disharmony.

But what made Jiang Cheng's fingers pause was that Lin Muwan subconsciously avoided his outstretched hand, seemingly unaccustomed to such intimate contact with anyone other than her brother.

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He rarely encountered similar situations, so he could only pretend not to care, withdraw his hand, and look away.

Not far from them was a window, and raindrops kept hitting the glass, and if you listened carefully, you could hear crackling sounds.

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but frown. The rain had unknowingly become heavier again. When he looked at it just now, it had become smaller, giving them the feeling that it would stop soon.

Sure enough, the worst had happened.

Xia Qiang's guess was wrong. In this world, once the rain started, it would not stop. It was completely useless to try to delay time by hiding and waiting for the mission deadline to end.

In other words, from the beginning, Xia Qiang and the others had entered a dead end.

Jiang Cheng immediately realized that the most likely way out was to find a way to completely leave this building, Yourun Building.

Seeming to also feel that she had been too distant from Jiang Cheng, Lin Muwan poked Jiang Cheng's arm with her finger and handed him the notebook, which read: Mr. Jiang, what are you thinking about?

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Cheng said truthfully, "I'm wondering where the real way out is?"

Lin Muwan widened her eyes and looked at him, obviously waiting for him to continue.

"Now it seems that the rain will not stop. We can only escape the pursuit of the killer by completely leaving this building," Jiang Cheng said.

Although it sounded simple, accidents were inevitable during the actual operation. What worried Jiang Cheng even more was Yuan Xiaotian, whom Xia Qiang had mentioned.

According to the information Xia Qiang had passed on at the end, Yuan Xiaotian's body had come back to life and become an accomplice of the killer, but Xia Qiang also mentioned that Yuan Xiaotian still retained his own consciousness.

Xia Qiang even emphasized that Yuan Xiaotian still had a chance to be resurrected.

Could people who died in the mission come back to life?

Jiang Cheng had never seen or heard of this situation before.

But out of trust for Xia Qiang, Jiang Cheng still kept this situation in mind.

Lowering his head, he reached into his pocket and felt a hard little thing. After taking it out, it was a plastic badge.

The one from Yuan Xiaotian's body, with a series of numbers behind it.

"Could it be..." Jiang Cheng stared at the badge in his hand, "Could Yuan Xiaotian's situation be related to taking this badge away?"

"Otherwise, why didn't Li Mengyao come back to life, but Yuan Xiaotian?"

The clues ended here. This was just Jiang Cheng's guess, and there was currently no evidence to support it.

Moreover, Jiang Cheng also sincerely did not want to see any of Yuan Xiaotian and Li Mengyao "live" in this way.

Suddenly, Jiang Cheng's arm was grabbed tightly. He couldn't help but shudder, and immediately looked at Lin Muwan beside him.

Lin Muwan tilted her head and stared at a vase by the wall.

She looked very nervous.

There were some flowers in the vase, just ordinary flowers, and below was a transparent glass vase, filled with more than half a bottle of water.

The water surface in the bottle was shaking at a very stiff frequency, rippling, and becoming more and more obvious.

Something was nearby and was walking towards them!

It was the killer!

The surroundings were shrouded in fog, and the visibility was very poor. With his previous experience, Jiang Cheng had a general understanding of the killer's abilities, so he decided to take Lin Muwan away immediately.

They walked along the wall, preparing to find the emergency exit, then go downstairs from the emergency exit, and finally leave this place.

But just as they turned a corner and passed the elevator, suddenly, the indicator light above the elevator lit up.

The red numbers kept flashing, as if there was poor contact.

The elevator made a humming sound as it moved. Jiang Cheng clearly saw that the first number on the elevator indicator was 11, which meant that the elevator was coming down from the floor above them.

Xia Qiang was already dead, and Lin Muyun would never choose to take the elevator, so the thing inside the elevator at this moment was definitely not a person.

As for what it was, Jiang Cheng had no interest and didn't want to know.

Moreover, the power supply in this building seemed to be cut off, so how could it be possible for the elevator to run?

He immediately pulled Lin Muwan's hand, who was in a daze, and walked quickly towards the other side of the corridor.

Less than 5 seconds after they left, there was a "ding" sound from the elevator, and then the elevator door opened, and a body with its head split in half staggered out.

After a brief pause in front of the elevator door, it immediately chased after Jiang Cheng and Lin Muwan in the direction they had fled.

Although Yuan Xiaotian's body was in a strange posture, its speed was not slow at all, and it disappeared into the depths of the fog in a few breaths.

On the ground, there was also a row of terrifying bloody footprints.

Listening to the footsteps coming from behind, Jiang Cheng pulled Lin Muwan and walked faster and faster. He no longer cared about making too much noise. After all, judging from the current situation, they had been discovered.

And the guy chasing behind them was probably Yuan Xiaotian, whom Xia Qiang had mentioned.

After all, the killer made no sound when walking.

What was worse was that Lin Muwan's condition was getting worse and worse. Her face was pale, and she was panting constantly, as if something was wrong with her body.

"How are you?" Jiang Cheng asked, while paying attention to the distance of the pursuit behind him, and looking at Lin Muwan.

Lin Muwan swallowed painfully, immediately took out the notebook, and wrote on it with difficulty: Too much exercise, my body doesn't allow it.

It seemed that her body could not support too much exercise. Her face was pale, and she was obviously unable to hold on.

Jiang Cheng immediately squatted down, turned his head to look at Lin Muwan, and said urgently, "Get on, I'll carry you."
