Chapter 5 The entanglement of life and death
"Wait... wait, oh, I finally caught up with you, don't run away yet." As a working police officer, Yang Dali's physical fitness is still good, and he quickly caught up with the white-collar woman who ran away before.
, grabbed her hand and said breathlessly.
"Why are you catching up again?... Let me go and I'll apologize to you. Okay? Let me go. Let me go." Wan Jia bent over and gasped, feeling like she was about to run out of breath.
After working in the office for so many years and running so fast all of a sudden, my body is really unable to handle it anymore than it was when I was in school.
"Police, I am...Police, you...tell me, what happened and why you ran?" Yang Dali took out his police officer ID card from his pocket and flashed it at Wan Jia.
"Police? You are really a policeman."
"Comrade policeman, save me, you must save me. I'm still young and I don't want to die yet." After Wan Jia saw Yang Dali's police officer ID and discovered that the young man in front of him turned out to be a policeman, she
As if grasping a life-saving straw, the whole person quickly grabbed Yang Dali's hand tightly and wouldn't let go.
"Ma'am, please don't get excited."
"I'm a police officer, trust me, I will protect you."
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Yang Dali. You can call me Officer Yang. Madam, what is your name? Are you an employee in this building?"
"And what happened just now? Why did you run away? Please think this question carefully before you answer it. Did you... encounter a 'boo'?" Yang Dali said sternly.
"I don't know, I really don't know."
"My name is Wan Jia. I work in a company on the 11th floor of this building. When I was in the bathroom just now..." Wan Jia told Yang Dali what happened before. She was too nervous and seemed a little incoherent.
"As expected, then, what I just encountered was..." Yang Dali thought of the scene just now and felt a chill in his heart.
"Ms. Wan, don't worry, have you noticed it? According to you, you have actually encountered it three times, but you are still alive and well, right?"
"In other words, this boo's ability is not that powerful. It is not omnipotent. At least we can be sure that it is not fast. Ms. Wan, you have encountered it three times and it has not been able to do anything.
Catch you." Yang Dali clarified his thoughts and analyzed.
"From what the policeman said, it seems that yes, its speed is really not fast."
"No, there is another problem."
"I remember that the first time I encountered it was in the women's restroom on the 11th floor. The second time I saw it coming out of the restroom, but the third time... it was on the 10th floor.
.”
"How did it get in front of me?" After hearing Yang Dali's analysis, Wan Jia's expression softened at first, but then she remembered something that didn't make sense and looked at Yang Dali hurriedly.
"Well, it seems that there are still some logical problems."
"We must have missed something. Is there something we didn't pay attention to?"
"It shouldn't be very fast. If it is really that fast, why doesn't it appear directly in front of you?"
"Well, let's consider this issue later."
"Miss Wan, in my opinion, we should run out of this building first. Maybe if we run out of this building, the boo won't follow us anymore." Yang Dali said seriously.
Yang Dali didn't say a word, for fear of causing Wan Jia to panic. The sun was going down and their time was very tight.
When it gets dark, this will be another situation. The lethality and terror they cause in the dark are far greater than during the day. After all, the presence or absence of sunlight is meaningless to them, but for ordinary people,
In other words, being in a lightless environment is equivalent to being blind.
"Yes Yes."
"I thought this way before, so I ran downstairs. There are two ordinary stairs in Yuexing Building, one emergency fire escape, and six elevators. We just took Staircase No. 1, which is no longer accessible. We are now
Go down the stairs No. 2." Wan Jia nodded repeatedly.
"Well, I suggest that we don't run and save our energy so that we don't run out of energy at the critical moment." Yang Dali suggested.
"Okay, let's talk about it...why...our company is so quiet, there were obviously a lot of people there before." Wan Jia looked at the empty office, her face turned pale.
The time between when she ran out of the company and when she returned to the company was only about ten minutes at most. When she returned to the company again, the company was so quiet?
I obviously checked the time before going to the bathroom, and it was not yet five o'clock. Although it was almost time to get off work, there should be many colleagues busy in the company at this time.
Why, why are all the work stations empty?
Where...everyone...has...gone...!
"Let's go, hurry up." Yang Dali looked at the empty office area with an ugly expression on his face.
When Yang Dali came up, he conducted a general inspection of every floor of Yuexing Building.
From the first floor to the tenth floor, there are people working on each floor. It makes no sense that when you get to the eleventh floor, all the people working on this floor will be gone.
Today's urban work is very stressful. Many people work around the clock. The average working hours in the city are increasing year by year. What is 996? It's all a little kiss.
Some high-intensity work units even require employees to call 997. This situation is not unique, so there must be something wrong with the phenomenon in front of us, and the source of this abnormality is obvious.
The two of them were walking cautiously in the deserted office area. When they passed the bathroom, there was a sound of footsteps in the bathroom. When they heard the footsteps approaching, their expressions changed and they were ready to escape.
"Wanjia, you're back. I thought you left early. What happened just now? You left in such a hurry."
"By the way, I saw your bag in the bathroom. There is also your mobile phone in the bag. I put it for you at your work station." At this time, the woman's voice came from the bathroom,
A young woman came out of the bathroom and greeted Wan Jia.
"Xiao Li! It's you!" Wan Jia saw the face of the woman in front of her clearly and realized that it was her best friend Xiao Li. She patted her chest and gave a false alarm.
"It's such a fuss. It's like seeing something."
"Wan Jia, what happened when you left in such a hurry just now? You look so bad."
"Hey, who is the handsome guy next to you? Could it be that you just went to pick up the handsome guy? No wonder you are in such a hurry." Xiaoli looked at Yang Dali's face and the muscles on his body that could not be concealed, and joked.
"Uh... No, Xiaoli, you are thinking too much." Wan Jia glanced at Yang Dali and explained awkwardly to her best friend.
"When is it? I'll introduce it in detail later."
"Ms. Wan, and this lady, let's leave this building first and then talk about other things." Yang Dali kept scanning the surrounding environment with his eyes.
Although he hasn't found the boo yet, years of experience tell him that he can't take it lightly at any time. After all, everyone is not out of danger yet and must escape from the building immediately.
"Yes, Xiaoli, come here quickly, there is danger here, let's get out of here together." Wan Jia also remembered the terrifying woman in white and hurriedly said to her best friend Xiaoli.
"Danger? What danger? What kind of danger could there be in the company? Are you okay?"
"Speaking of which, why is the company so quiet? Is everyone off work?" Xiaoli looked at her best friend and the little girl in front of her in confusion, and then looked at the company's workstations. Hey, why are there only three of them?
, what about the other people, why are they all gone?
"Be careful!" At this moment, Yang Dali's expression changed and he saw a woman in white with her hair hanging down walking out of the bathroom behind Xiaoli with her head lowered.
"What are you being careful about? Ah!" Xiaoli wondered, and found that the two people in front of her were looking at her in horror. What were they doing? No... this direction? They should be looking behind her.
Xiaoli was about to look back when she felt a sharp pain in her chest. She lowered her head and a pale hand stretched out from her chest!
"Run!" Yang Dali's eyes were split open. He took Wan Jia's hand and saw the fire escape not far away. He didn't care about the No. 2 staircase he planned to go to. He quickly rushed into the fire escape and heard the sound outside the passage.
