There were thirty or forty people standing in the corridor outside the elevator, both men and women, who seemed to be very old, and on average they were about thirty years old.

Everyone's faces were filled with anger and anxiety, but when they saw Xia Qi and a few people coming up on the elevator, the emotions on their faces instantly changed to surprise.

"They came up in the elevator?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense, these guys are in the elevator, how do you say they got up!"

"But isn't this elevator broken, how can it still come up?"

"Maybe it'll be better now."

“……”

The people in the corridor were talking, and the more they talked, the more excited they became. However, when they saw Wu Dagang who fell in the elevator like a dead dog behind Xia Qi, many people couldn't help but exclaim.

"You see, there's a man in the elevator, and there's a ...... on that face. Is it blood? ”

"Dead?"

"What the hell is going on?"

Listening to everyone's discussions, Xia Qi suddenly had a conjecture in his heart, as for He Yuying, Nie Feng and the others, who were also standing in the elevator, they looked at each other and didn't know what to say.

But before Xia Qi and the people on their side could speak, some of the residents standing in the corridor stood up and asked:

"Are you guys in this apartment too?"

"What's the matter with that person, is he injured or not?"

Hearing the residents' inquiries, Xia Qi walked out of the elevator unhurriedly at this time, and then said to everyone with a smile:

"We're not residents of this apartment, and this person is a friend of ours, but he's a little injured, but it shouldn't be a big deal."

Xia Qi didn't say much, after all, he didn't know what was going on in this apartment now, but he knew that the apartment was sealed. Only in but not out.

Xia Qi's explanation did not arouse the suspicion of the residents, not that what he said was true, but that the residents did not care about Wu Dagang's life or death at all.

Then someone said:

"Since the elevator can come up, it may also be able to go down, let's go in and try it."

Hearing this person's proposal, most of the more than forty people suddenly crowded to the elevator. Seeing this, Xia Qi had no choice but to hide to the side and watch the situation in the elevator with cold eyes.

"Can you stop squeezing, if you can go down, do you still care about this moment?"

"You said it's easy, this elevator is good and bad, who knows if you can get off next time."

"Can you step back and step on me."

"Grass, the elevator is full. Can the people in the back stop squeezing. With so many people crowded, no one should think about going down if the elevator is overweight. ”

The elevator is overcrowded and chaotic, which can be said to vividly show people's selfishness and brainlessness when encountering a crisis.

But there is no shortage of calm people, just when the people outside were still desperately trying to squeeze into the elevator, I heard a woman with a long face say:

"Don't squeeze it, even if the elevator goes down this time, it will break down next time. But as long as someone goes out, they can contact people outside. Contact the property, and the rest of the people will still be able to get out.

With so many people squeezing into the elevator, it is impossible to fit the elevator door even if it is smashed, and it is easy to get injured if the crowd is crowded. ”

The woman shouted and said it several times in a row, until a few people felt that it made sense, and then began to echo and mobilize the people around her to exit the elevator.

That's it. It took another seven or eight minutes to reluctantly get out of the elevator.

The number of people in the elevator was no longer overcrowded, and the people who stayed in the elevator repeatedly assured that they would definitely contact the outside world after they went out, and then pressed the button to the first floor.

It's just that the elevator door has just closed. Then it opened again without warning.

"Can't you go down?"

"Won't it?"

"You're trying, try a few more times, and since they can come up, they will definitely be able to go down ......!"

Taking advantage of the repeated attempts of the people in the elevator, Xia Qi found a resident who looked good to talk nearby, and asked the man very curiously:

"So many people are scrambling to get into the elevator, what's going on? Is the elevator broken or what? ”

"Don't mention it, this dilapidated building suddenly has no signal at all, and no one's mobile phone can get through. Not only that, but the elevator also broke down, so no one should think about going down. ”

"No cell phone signal? Wouldn't it be impossible for the property owner to fix it? ”

Xia Qi also pretended to be surprised after hearing this.

"Hey, so when I saw a few of you coming up on the elevator, I thought the elevator was ready, but I didn't want to go down. If you want me to watch it, it's still no show. ”

Xia Qi nodded symbolically, and asked as if he suddenly remembered something:

"Are all the residents here? Or is there something that doesn't come out at home? ”

"There should be someone who doesn't know what's going on, the reason why so many people are crowded here is because the upstairs takes the elevator down, and you can't get down to this floor."

"If that's the case, then how does the elevator get down to the 1st floor?"

"It went down on its own, and we desperately pressed the door at that time and didn't open it, so we could only watch it go down."

"Oh, that's over, we can't get out now. Ay. ”

Xia Qi sighed empathetically, and the man shook his head and sighed:

"Wait, what else can be done."

Just when Xia Qi learned about the situation from the mouth of this resident, the people in the elevator had tried no less than ten times, but the elevator was motionless, and there was no intention of going down at all, although the elevator door would close, but then it would open again.

"Okay, I said you don't have to work hard, the elevator is still broken, it is estimated that it can go up but can't go down, or honestly wait for the property to be repaired."

Seeing that the people in the elevator were busy for a while, the residents outside were greatly disappointed, and they were a little uneasy in their hearts.

Just when the people in the elevator were about to give up and want to leave the elevator, Xia Qi thought about it and shouted at the people inside:

"Don't come out yet, since you can't go downstairs, can you go upstairs?"

"What's the use of going up? There is no mobile phone signal and no contact with the outside world. ”

"If we can go up, we'll all go back and be done, waiting for when someone will come to repair and when we'll come out."

Xia Qi just wanted to determine whether the stairs could move between the 9th and 15th floors, but it resonated with many people, and they didn't want to wait here in the stuffy heat.

Seeing that the people outside proposed to go up and have a look, the people in the elevator didn't say anything more, and tried to press the floor upstairs, but the elevator really slowly rose up after closing the door. (To be continued.) )
