Lin Sanjiu believed that no matter how hard the local organization trained their posthumans, they probably never told them what to do when someone wanted to jump off a building.
"Huh?"
Five posthumans had already gathered in front of Lin Sanjiu. Almost all of them had the same reaction when they heard the explanation from the previous person.
The corridor wasn't wide and could only allow three people to walk side by side. Those who were pushed to the back could only raise their heads to look at Lin Sanjiu. To ensure that the light source wouldn't be destroyed during combat, the light bulbs on the ceiling were all built-in. They were sealed in transparent panels, so the light that fell on them was dim.
Even though the light wasn't very bright, Lin Sanjiu could still see traces of dried black liquid at the corner of the gray ceiling. She wasn't sure if the liquid came from a duoluozhong or a human.
A young woman was chewing gum. Strangely enough, Walker in the Clouds had no shortage of chewing gum. The price of chewing gum was almost the same as before the apocalypse. She looked at Lin Sanjiu from head to toe. She seemed to be enjoying the show, "Why? Are you taking things too hard? "
"I don't want to die. I have a way to survive," Lin Sanjiu scratched her face. She answered honestly, "As for the specific reason, I'm sorry, I can't tell you. I'm afraid that the news will spread. You see, I offended so many people the moment I came to Walker in the Clouds … "
A man with a ponytail leaned against the wall and pressed a small microphone to his ear. He stopped listening to the broadcast and interjected, "Why are you so uncooperative? You don't even want to answer us. Why should we let you go? "
The young woman who was chewing gum laughed, "Is the observation window yours? You didn't buy it, and neither did I. It's a public facility. You don't have the right to stop her if she wants to jump off. "
Lin Sanjiu had already noticed that they didn't seem to belong to the same organization.
Lin Sanjiu did not recognize the symbols of the major organizations, but she could infer which symbols were the symbols of the organizations from the repeated appearance of the symbols on their bodies. For example, there was a small green rose hanging on the right ear of the chewing gum, and the same green rose was printed on the back of the big and burly man's right hand. There was also a woman in the distance who had not spoken yet, and her right breast was simply covered with a green rose that was magnified several times. The three of them obviously belonged to the same organization.
A man with a ponytail listening to the radio and a man covered in bandages all had a black circle drawn on their throats. At first glance, it looked like they had been bitten by a large animal with smooth teeth. It was most likely another organization.
"Who comes here to ask for this and that? How can we do our work?" The ponytail immediately shouted angrily at the woman.
He seemed to be the kind of person who would feel like he was at a disadvantage if he did not make full use of the small power in his hands. Now that he was stabbed, he retorted even more passionately, "What if she wants to sabotage us? Who would take responsibility if something went wrong? If the duoluozhong comes in, just say that it's because of you, okay? "
The woman who was chewing gum rolled her eyes, but she did not argue anymore.
From what Lin Sanjiu could tell, they were just walking around the floor. There were cases of duoluozhong creeping up the stairs, but it was not so frequent that they were so nervous that they couldn't even occupy the window for a while. Even though these people did not belong to the same organization, it seemed that no one would fall out with their colleagues just because of a strange request from a stranger.
Lin Sanjiu sighed.
After all, she had already offended the Munitions Factory, and now she had offended the Shark Department. As the saying goes, when you have too many lice, you don't itch anymore. When you have too many debts, you don't need to worry anymore.
It's just five people. Let's do it.
The corridor was narrow, and it was crowded with five people. It was not a good idea to force her way through. Moreover, Lin Sanjiu had no grudge against them. She just wanted to jump off the building for herself, so she naturally did not want to hurt strangers. She suddenly took a few steps back and disappeared around the corner of the corridor. The people in the corridor were shocked. They probably did not expect her to leave without saying anything.
"What's going on …" Someone's sentence was cut off by the hand that came out from behind the wall. As Lin Sanjiu waved her hand, a shadow suddenly spread out and pounced on the corridor. The young woman who was chewing gum immediately yelled, "Back off!"
The corridor instantly darkened. Countless thin, hazy shadows surged in the air, forming layers of rolling undercurrents. Suddenly, the storm-like sound of sand hitting the walls and floor of the corridor was mixed with the shouts of a few people, "Activate the defense!"
"It's a sandstorm! Back off!"
"Bai Li," someone shouted, "your ability can be used!"
As a partition wall rose from the ground, half of the rolling sand in the corridor hit the wall. The sound of the storm became louder because of the hurried resistance. After a few seconds, the sandstorm gradually stopped, and all sounds disappeared. There was only a sand dune outside the partition wall and a group of five posthumans who were drenched in sand from head to toe. Their various defense mechanisms were still flickering under the sand.
The posthumans smacked and hit them. Some of them even spat out the sand in their mouths. Soon, they realized that the sand was really just sand, and none of them were injured. The posthumans quickly turned around and looked around. Someone asked, "Where's the woman?"
The burly posthuman reacted quickly. He immediately turned around and rushed deeper into the corridor. He shouted, "I'm afraid that the sandstorm is just a diversion! She has already gone in! "
What he said was true. While the posthumans were running and shouting, Lin Sanjiu had already hung herself from the ceiling and quietly climbed over their heads.
She knew that the sand she shot out with her vortex was harmless. When she was in Garden of Eden, she had converted some of her opponents that could be turned into sand into cards. Today, she had finally used the last part of her card. It was not easy to hang herself on the flat cement surface. She had to use her [Power of Description] again to make the cement ceiling sink into a slit that was just big enough for her finger. She closed her eyes and touched the ceiling bit by bit as the sandstorm battered her. When she reached an empty space, she slid down without making a sound.
It turned out that the concrete walls on this floor had been modified into individual lookout posts. It was just like the lookout posts on every floor of a castle. When the five of them rushed into the lookout post, Lin Sanjiu had already stretched half of her body out of the window. She was holding on to the windowsill with both her hands. Only her head was visible.
"What are you trying to do?" the burly posthuman shouted. "Don't you know how dangerous it is down there?"
Lin Sanjiu smiled at him and turned her head to look at the sky in the distance. Under the sun that had just risen in the morning, there was a straight, translucent shadow in the distant sky. It was shimmering lightly, like an icicle that stretched out horizontally from a building.
Just five to six meters below her feet was a thick and heavy layer of smoke. This was the first time Lin Sanjiu was so close to it without a barrier. If she took a deep breath, she suspected that she could smell a burning smell.
"I told you, I don't mean any harm. I just want to jump down." Lin Sanjiu looked at the posthumans who had formed a semicircle and were closing in on the window. She smiled faintly and said, "Goodbye."
She loosened her grip and fell from the windowsill.
She fell.
