Lin Sanjiu had already prepared herself for this. She knew that the guards would find out sooner or later that she was wearing a coat of the same color. She also knew that she had to act according to the situation before she was exposed. She had to leave as soon as possible.
However, what she did not expect was that from the moment she turned to the left side of the T-shaped corridor until she escaped from the corridor, all her actions and reactions happened in a span of 2.6 seconds.
Lin Sanjiu, who was completely immersed in her Ultimate Mode, felt as if a laser beam had swept through her when the eyes of the fifth group of guards fell on her. Even the hair on her back stood on end. It was also at that moment when she felt the gaze from behind her that her brain had already completed a series of complicated operations such as gathering information, searching the corridor, and forming a decision. Of course, from her perspective, she had made a decision "subconsciously".
She saw two arrows on the signboard at the T-shaped corridor. The arrow on the right read "Purchasing Department", while the arrow on the left read "Medical Records and Information Management Department". That was the corridor she was in now.
There was more than one door in this corridor. Most likely, they were all offices belonging to the "Medical Records and Information Management Department". When Lin Sanjiu followed the guard in front of her and took a step forward, she raised her head slightly and found that the nearest office door was two meters away from her on the right.
The fourth group of guards also had six guards. They were also divided into three rows. The first two rows of guards had already passed through the office door. Every group of guards used different methods and time to inspect the interior of the room. When this group of guards passed by the room, they did not seem to have the intention to go in and have a look.
It was also at this moment that the eyes of the fifth group of guards from the purchasing department flickered back and forth like a searchlight.
They were separated by almost two whole corridors, and they were so far away from each other. If they saw two people with similar hair and clothes, no matter who it was, they would be a little hesitant. They might even turn their heads away indifferently. Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to hope for such good luck. All she hoped for was a moment of hesitation.
"Huh?"
The muffled voice of the fifth group of guards came from far behind her. It sounded as if it was coming from the bottom of the water. During the half a second that they were cut into pieces, they did not have the time to say anything, but the confusion and doubt in their voices was undeniable. They stopped looking around and focused their attention on her back.
… Their suspicions rose too quickly!
Lin Sanjiu picked up her pace and took her second step. This time, her stride was bigger and faster. In the blink of an eye, she had shortened the distance between her and the office door by half.
However, the two guards in the last row just happened to walk to the office door, and she couldn't reach for the doorknob. At this moment, someone in the fifth group of guards behind her who was staring at her back opened his mouth slightly. "Ah!" A cry of surprise suddenly rushed out from between his lips.
Lin Sanjiu knew that she was running out of time.
Everything was like a slow-motion movie. Even the exclamation of "Ah!" seemed to be dragged out. As soon as her second step landed on the ground, she bounced forward and pounced toward the door of the office.
Generally speaking, if someone suddenly screamed beside you, by the time you reacted and looked back, the scream would have already ended. The duration of the scream was too short. It was impossible for the guards in the fourth group to react in time. Naturally, they didn't have the time to turn around to look.
Unless, they had already planned to turn around.
When Lin Sanjiu's fingers closed around the doorknob and turned it again, the guards in the last row of guards in the fourth group also turned toward her. It seemed like they were going to check the office. When they saw the back of another person at the door, they couldn't help being stunned.
The door opened smoothly.
Lin Sanjiu had seen the guards checking the room many times, but she had never seen them take out their keys. She already knew that the room doors weren't locked. Lin Sanjiu turned around and saw the two guards instinctively looking to their sides. When they realized that their colleagues were standing beside them, it meant that the person standing at the door wasn't one of them. Finally, the scream from afar turned into something substantial, "Someone's here!"
The six guards of cluster 4 came to their senses. Their faces were filled with holes, and they exclaimed in shock. Footsteps echoed across the floor, and a few hands reached out to grab Lin Sanjiu. However, Lin Sanjiu had already disappeared through the gap between the door and the door. She didn't even have the time to stand or turn around. The moment she entered the room, she raised her leg and kicked backward. Her hand, which had reached through the gap, was caught by the door. She shrieked in pain and retracted her hand.
Seizing the opportunity, Lin Sanjiu rammed her shoulder into the door and slammed it shut.
The 2.1 seconds had just ended when the dust clumps fell off the wall with a thud.
When she hurriedly locked the door, the angry shouts, warning sounds, footsteps, the sound of the walkie-talkie, and the banging of the door all boiled over, as if a pot of boiling water had exploded. Even the shrill sound of the alarm once again tore through the air. "Wanted fugitive! Wanted criminal found in the Medical Records Department! "
As expected of a mid-level posthuman, the guards outside the door only needed to ram into the door a few times before the lock began to wobble. They looked like they were going to give up at any moment.
Lin Sanjiu didn't even have the time to look back at the office. She used all her strength to hold on to the door handle. With one foot on the ground, she tried her best to resist the attacks from at least four guards outside the door. Even though she had recovered a lot of her stamina after resting, she was still far from her peak condition. "If only I didn't lose Hei Zeji!"
"Item," Mrs. Manas was already panicking, "Item, what item do you have …"
"No," Lin Sanjiu shouted out loud in her nervous state. Then, she switched to the voice transmission in her mind, "I don't have any Special Item that can seal the door!"
"No, wait a minute." She scanned the office quickly. In the darkness, she had a vague feeling that this idea would work. Even if she didn't have any suitable Special Item, she still had a suitable normal Item!
Lin Sanjiu suddenly loosened her grip on the door and took a big step back. The moment she moved her hand away, the door shook violently as if it was going to shatter into pieces. She didn't dare to waste any more time. She slammed her hand on the door and quickly pulled her hand back.
The card that was slammed on the door suddenly turned into a huge container just as it was about to fall.
Lin Sanjiu stood beside the container. Her heart was pounding so hard that her eardrums were ringing.
Even if the guards dismantled the door from the outside, the entire door frame would be blocked by the container. At least, she had some time to think about what she should do next. As she pondered, she turned around.
Being in the basement of the hospital, Lin Sanjiu's vision was poor enough to begin with, but she could still see a few meters ahead through the fog. But now, perhaps because the light tubes were all broken and there was no light in the room, she could not even see a few meters ahead of her. Wherever she looked, there was only darkness.
She couldn't even see if there was anyone in the room.
Of course, the flashlight was useless in this place. If there was really someone in the room, not only would the flashlight not help her, it would also illuminate the other party. Holding the container with one hand, she groped her way through the narrow gap between the container and the wall. She tried her best not to make any noise when she stepped on the debris.
With the next step, she seemed to have stepped on something wet with a "gurgle" sound. Lin Sanjiu bent down slowly and wiped the warm, sticky liquid on the floor.
The smell of blood seeped into her nostrils.
