Nightmare Attack

"How is that possible?" the security guard said in surprise, "You must have remembered it wrong!"

Standing in front of the stairwell, everyone couldn't help but take a breath when they saw the safety door with a lock on it.

This place is completely different from when they first arrived.

"You don't comply with fire regulations, right?" Qiao Yu's brother pointed at the locked safety door and said to the security guard.

The security guard looked embarrassed and didn't answer.

"Are you going to another office to have a look?" The security guard interjected, seeing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn.

Hua Luo turned around, "Another office?"

"Yes, there is another room there, which was Lai Zumei's previous office. After she moved to the ninth floor, she used it as a storage room."

Hua Luo asked the security guard to lead the way and immediately went upstairs along the stairs on the other side. However, Jiang Cheng and the others were not seen until they arrived at the door of Li Zumei's old office on the 13th floor.

The office door showed no sign of having been opened recently.

They are also missing.

Hua Luo judged that they were trapped in the stairwell on the left, and the ghost who called was Li Zumei.

This is a trap.

This place is very remote, at the end of a corner, and no one is seen nearby.

"Wait a minute. I'm going to ask the person in charge for the key. No one has been here for a long time. The security guard said he was about to leave, but Hua Luo said no, and kicked the door open.

It was a little dark inside, but I could barely make out what looked like an office.

Everyone was worried that after the security guard left, he would attract more people and cause unnecessary trouble, so they left him behind and asked Qiao Yu and his brother to stand at the corner with him and pay attention to what was going on around him.

Hua Luo walked in first, and Chu Jiu took out a small flashlight from his body and followed him in.

The environment here is much worse than that of the office on the 9th floor. There are piles of clutter everywhere. It seems that the desk has not been cleaned for a long time. There are still a few empty bottles on the ground.

What is more eye-catching is a huge bookcase with a glass door in the corner. Through the glass window, you can see many paper bags placed side by side inside, which is very similar to the ones they found before.

After Hua Luo realized it, she immediately walked towards the bookcase.

"How could this happen?" Chu Jiu's voice disrupted Hua Luo's footsteps. He followed the voice and saw Chu Jiu holding a flashlight and shining it in the direction they came from.

The next second, Hua Luo's pupils trembled involuntarily.

The door they entered through disappeared.

A huge picture frame appeared in the corresponding position.

"Doctor." The fat man covered his mouth and said vaguely, "This smoke is too big."

"Pay attention to your steps and lower your body. Jiao Tailang was also choked by the thick smoke. The smoke and dust were billowing all around, accompanied by waves of heat, making it almost impossible to open his eyes.

About 10 minutes ago, a fire suddenly broke out in the building, and the fire was extremely fierce. Under the leadership of Li Zumei, they came to a safety door.

But the safety door was blocked by something behind it, and it couldn't be pushed open. It could only open a large gap.

Jiang Cheng and Jiao Tailang tried, but neither could get through.

In the end, Li Zumei got through.

After Li Zumei got through, he immediately disappeared in the thick smoke.

The heat wave behind him was scorching, and the fire was about to come over. The fat man could even smell the burnt smell of his own hair. Just when he thought he had been given up, Li Zumei's voice suddenly sounded from behind the door.

She told everyone to hold on, and after some fiddling with the crowbar she found, she finally widened the gap before everyone was engulfed in flames.

The fat man stepped back and let Jiang Cheng and Jiao Tailang go first. He was worried that his size would get stuck in the middle and cause trouble for the doctor.

Fortunately, the fat man was finally pulled out by the combined efforts of three people.

Several people immediately ran down, but as they went down, the smoke became thicker, and the heat wave seemed to cook people.

The fat man even touched his eyebrows, worried that they would burn.

In the thick smoke, the fat man couldn't open his eyes at all. He ran downwards purely by instinct. He tried his best to lower his body. There were footsteps all around, and he couldn't tell who was who.

He could barely see clearly that it was Li Zumei in front of him.

After all, Li Zumei is an ordinary person and a woman, and her physical strength and endurance are not as good as them. The fat man saw that her steps were getting more and more frivolous, and finally she trembled and fell down the stairs.

"What are you doing?" Jiao Tailang half-crouched in front of Li Zumei. The thick smoke made her burst into tears, but the next second, her tears were dried by the heat wave.

My face was burning and hurting.

Fatty and Jiang Cheng were gone. She heard the faint sound of running downstairs. It seemed that they had given up on this woman.

The woman let out a meaningless moan. She hugged her leg. Jiao Tailang touched it with his hands and found that the bones were not broken. The foot must have been twisted.

"Don't leave me." Li Zumei begged, stretching out her red and swollen hands to grasp Jiao Tailang's clothes.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, crackling sounds were everywhere, and there was a huge wooden frame in the corridor not far behind the woman.

The wooden frame was burning brightly, as if it might fall down at any moment.

Jiao Tailang gritted her teeth and said, "Get up," she said loudly, enduring the heat wave, "I'll help you walk!"

She let the woman's arm rest on her shoulders, and then the two of them limped down. At this time, her eyes were useless, and Jiao Tailang could only test it a little bit with her feet.

Li Zumei is also very competitive, and the two of them are becoming more and more skilled in cooperation.

But just when Jiao Tailang forced herself to open her eyes to see what was going on nearby, an inadvertent detail came into her eyes.

Li Zumei put one arm on her shoulder, and for balance, her other hand was leaning on the handrail of the stairs.

Just go down a little bit.

Jiao Tailang's pupils jumped suddenly.

The coating on the armrests already showed signs of melting. Jiao Tailang didn't know how high the temperature was, but it was certainly not a temperature that normal people could touch with bare hands.

This woman is not human.

It's a ghost.

After figuring this out, Jiao Tailang remained calm and used the opportunity to ask the woman to change positions, took advantage of the woman to move her arm, turned around and ran away.

Jiang Cheng faced the same situation as Jiao Tailang, but the difference was that he had already seen that there was something wrong with the fire.

The burning was too fast and violent, without any warning. It seemed like it burned instantly, and multiple floors burned at the same time.

The reason why he remained calm before was simply because Jiang Cheng hadn't found out where this ghost was yet.

But just after Li Zumei sprained her leg and lay on the ground pitifully begging to save her, Jiang Cheng was sure that she was a ghost.

After all, in such a fire, a person's tears can be dried in a few seconds, so how could it be possible for someone like Li Zumei to cry like a kite with its strings broken?

But Jiang Cheng still calmly helped her up, and while encouraging her, he walked to the handrail of the stairs, kicked her down when she was not prepared, turned around and ran upstairs.
