Chapter 1039: Down the Rabbit-Hole
If they don't take the elevator down, then their efforts so far will be halfway.
But if you take the elevator down, no one can predict what will happen.
Maybe the elevator will stop halfway through and keep them in this iron prison.
Maybe the elevator will suddenly get out of control and go straight into free fall from the height of several tens of floors.
Maybe they made it to the ground floor safely, but the moment the elevator doors opened, they were wiped out.
"Anyway, I don't think we have a choice." The Misty Believer stood in the doorway of the elevator, staring at the rising numbers on the display.
"It's all here, right?" Qiu Shuangyue smiled bitterly and spread her hands.
I have to say that Chinese philosophies like "come and come" are indeed quite suitable for the current situation.
"But what about him?" Bright Candle with Snow snuggled her chin in the direction of Kotojuro.
"Him?" The eyes of the misty believer lingered on the middle-aged man's corpse for a moment, and he shook his head, "It's not something we can take care of. ”
"And even if you are considered a suspect, it doesn't matter." He sighed, "After all, we have more important things to do than that. ”
"It's disrespectful to the corpse, though—" The Misty Believer turned his gaze to the elevator's display, and the numbers on it were almost on their floor.
"—but that's all we can do, isn't it?" He smiled wryly.
"Ding."
The sound of a microwave oven sounded.
The elevator door opened in front of them.
……
The elevator is an iron box.
At the same time, it is also a Schrödinger's box.
Because until the elevator door opened, no one knew what was in the box.
Let's do a simple scenario simulation.
You are waiting for your lover in the lobby on the first floor, while your lover's home lives on the twelfth floor.
Then, an elevator stopped on the twelfth floor and began to descend towards the hall.
At this time, your heart must be full of anticipation.
Because you don't know if the elevator on the twelfth floor is filled with your lover.
If you can't observe the state inside the elevator, you will never know if the elevator is filled with your lover until the elevator door opens.
Again, the situation is now the same.
The elevator carrying the three of them is also falling towards the bottom of the building, and for this scene, it is actually a double Schrödinger's box.
Because, the people inside the elevator don't know what awaits them outside the elevator, and the people outside the elevator don't know what awaits them inside the elevator - the camera has been destroyed.
That is, everything is not certain unless an observation is made.
However, despite that, people from the outside still have more initiative than people inside.
After all, they can stop the elevator.
But they didn't.
"Ding."
The sound of a microwave.
The elevator descended unobstructed to the very bottom of the building.
The sound of the air flowing lightly brushed the unshaved beard on the beholder's face.
Everything seemed to be quiet.
The elevator was empty.
The same goes for outside the elevator.
The open elevator door speaks silently.
A head poked out from under the elevator cover, observing the inside and outside of the elevator.
"No one."
Then, the head retracted and reported to the two men who were squatting above the elevator car in an eerie position.
So, the three of them, with six legs, fell from above the elevator car and stood where they should have been standing.
That's right, in order not to be caught, Qiu Shuangyue and the three of them did not stand in the elevator when they took the elevator, but squatted on the top of the elevator.
While this is undoubtedly dangerous, it's better than staying in an elevator.
However, it seems that there is no need to do so at all.
After all, their imaginary enemy simply does not exist.
No one is waiting for them at the elevator like the lover mentioned above.
Their caution seems to have become self-inflicted.
"It's not a good thing that no one is at the door." The Misty Believer's face was solemn, "After all, they already know about our existence, and they are hiding in the elevator to overhear our conversations. ”
"On the premise that we have already been discovered, they still did not choose to ambush us at the elevator entrance, which can only show two points."
He held out a finger.
"One, they may be ready to meet us somewhere else." The Misty Believer sighed, "That's what I wanted, too. ”
"Because, secondly, if they don't intend to greet us, but let us go, then our actions are meaningless."
"That is, they don't care what we're doing, do they?" Qiu Shuangyue pinched her chin, thoughtful.
"Hmm." The Misty Believer stepped out of the elevator, "But all in all, let's get out first, it's not good to stay in the elevator all the time." ”
The elevator is not a good place.
……
After exiting the elevator, a long hallway awaited the trio.
The hallway is lit with a few emergency light bulbs that only use in the event of a power outage, and the side of the hallway is inlaid with green safety exit signs that can be found everywhere in fire escapes.
Under the dim and turquoise lights of the emergency light bulbs and safety exits, the atmosphere of the entire corridor seems extremely eerie, and even makes people feel that they may have come to the set of "Electric O Horror".
"It's the same structure as the imager I saw on it before." The Misty Believer stood directly in front of the elevator shaft, his vision passing through the hallway.
"In other words, at the end of this corridor is the huge underground space we once observed." Qiu Shuangyue said.
"Hoo ......"
Ming Candle and Snow pressed his right hand on his unwavering chest, taking a deep breath before the battle.
"You're shaking."
The Misty Believer glanced at the bright candle with the snow.
"Again." His words changed sharply, and his tone suddenly stopped, "Is this the so-called martial artist shock?" ”
"Nope." Bright Candle and Snow shook her head.
Because her body was shaking, the amplitude of her shaking looked like she was jumping because of the loss of self-control in her body.
"This is really trembling, my current state is like the Qin Wuyang who went to assassinate Yingzheng with Jing Ke."
"I see, so let you adjust it for the time being...... After all, there are only three of us now. ”
With that, the Misty Believer looked away from the Bright Candle and the Snow, and instead cast his gaze towards the door at the end of the hallway.
What was behind this dimly colored door, he had to uncover.
