"Uncle Wang?"
Gu Feiyu looked at his phone and answered without thinking.
"Yes, what's up?"
"A tenant called to say he saw a suspicious person sneak into the third building. We don't have enough security on the night shift. If you're still awake, come and help."
"Suspicious person? Okay, I'll be there in a minute! " Because of him, Ol 'Wong was fined money, and Xiao Gu felt guilty. He had been looking for a chance to make it up to him, so he agreed without hesitation.
Holding his phone, Gu Feiyu jogged to Fang Hwa Apartments.
The third building was next to the backdoor. Gu Feiyu glanced into the security booth. Ol 'Wong had left in a hurry and did not even close the door.
"Could something have happened to him?"
He called Ol 'Wong, but there was no answer. After he entered the third building, he received a new message on his WeChat.
"The person who sneaked in seems to be a thief. We've trapped him on the 23rd floor, be careful when you come."
"Okay."
Worried about Ol 'Wong's safety, Xiao Gu walked into the elevator directly and pressed the button for the 23rd floor.
The elevator door slowly closed, and Xiao Gu felt weird looking at his phone.
Uncle Wang types very slowly, and he usually sends voice messages. Also, I called him earlier, but why didn't he answer?
Even though he was confused, Xiao Gu did not think someone was purposely lying to him.
I've just moved to the city to work. I don't have the looks or the money, so there's no reason for someone to lie to me. Uncle Wang's group is probably lying in ambush, so it's not convenient for them to answer the phone.
The number on the screen kept changing, and the elevator soon reached the 23rd floor.
"Uncle, I've arrived, which room are you in?"
Xiao Gu tiptoed out of the elevator. He hid at the corner of the corridor and messaged Ol 'Wong to ask for his location.
"The thief seems to be in room 3239. We're hiding in the room opposite him. Be careful not to make too much noise when you come over."
Lifting his head to look down the dark corridor, Xiao Gu memorized the room number on his WeChat and walked in.
There were no lights in the corridor, and the only source of light came from Xiao Gu's phone. He looked at the closed doors on both sides and slowed down.
He was getting further and further away from the elevator. When he was halfway there, Xiao Gu looked back and noticed that the number on the elevator display had suddenly changed.
It seemed like someone was using the elevator downstairs, or something had just run into the elevator. In short, the elevator had returned to the first floor.
If they encountered a crisis at this time, it would be almost impossible to escape through the elevator. It would take about a minute for the elevator to come up again.
"Someone came up from the first floor? Is it another security guard? "
Xiao Gu waited for a while and realized that the elevator was still on the first floor. He was a little confused, but before he could figure it out, Old Wang urged him on WeChat again.
It would have been fine if she didn't rush him, but now that she did, Xiao Gu felt that something was amiss.
"Uncle Wang can't type that fast. Could it be that he wasn't the one who sent the message?" Xiao Gu had this suspicion a long time ago, but the main problem was that he did not think there was anything worth scheming about him. There were so many people in Ol 'Wong's WeChat, so why him?
Xiao Gu stopped moving. He called Uncle Wang again, but there was still no answer.
"He doesn't answer the phone but keeps sending messages. Is he trying to cover up his voice?"
Not long ago, Xiao Gu had run into the crazy woman at the third building. He had almost been dismembered, and that memory had become a shadow in his heart. At the same time, it had taught him a valuable lesson. One should not have the intention to harm others, but one should always be cautious.
He stopped moving forward but carefully moved toward the elevator.
"I should leave the building first and find the other security guards to ask about the situation."
There was a trace of regret in Xiao Gu's heart. He shouldn't have taken the elevator so rashly. Coincidentally, not long ago, Ol 'Wong had specifically reminded him not to act rashly no matter what he did.
Sticking to the wall, walking down the dark corridor, Xiao Gu's heart became more and more unsettled.
"The elevator is still stuck on the first floor, that's weird. If there wasn't someone on the first floor pressing the button, how could the elevator go down? Could it be that someone was hiding behind me and snuck into the elevator when I wasn't paying attention? "
In the quiet corridor, Xiao Gu's phone suddenly vibrated, and it gave him a fright.
He lowered his head to look, and there was a new message from Ol 'Wong.
"Have we arrived?"
For some reason, when he saw the three words, Xiao Gu panicked. He quickened his steps.
However, he had only walked a few meters back when he received another message on his phone.
"Are you there?"
Xiao Gu held the phone and did not reply. He retreated to the elevator and pressed the button.
The elevator that was stopped on the first floor slowly moved up. Xiao Gu stared at the number on the screen, and his heart was pounding.
The person who sent him the message seemed to have sensed something, and the frequency of the message increased significantly.
Xiao Gu's phone kept vibrating, and the same message kept popping up on the screen.
"Are you there?"
"Are you there? Are you there? "
By then, Xiao Gu was certain that the person on the other side of the phone was not Ol 'Wong!
The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became. Looking at the messages that popped up, he felt a chill that he had never felt before.
"What the hell is going on?!"
When the elevator reached the eleventh floor, Ol 'Wong suddenly stopped sending him messages.
The phone stopped vibrating, and Xiao Gu sighed in relief. He wiped his forehead and realized it was already soaked in cold sweat.
"Someone has probably taken Uncle Wong's phone. I need to leave before they find out."
With that thought in his mind, Xiao Gu pressed the button madly. When the elevator reached the fourteenth floor, he turned back to look.
The door of one of the rooms at the end of the corridor was half open, and a pale figure was holding Ol 'Wong's phone and peeking out.
…
"My parents have taught me since I was young that I should be a righteous and upright person, and that has formed the habit of helping those who are just.
"When I see someone disregarding the law and committing evil, I can't help but want to bring them to justice.
"I admit that I was being impulsive, but the situation at the time did not allow me to hesitate. If I didn't do something, more people would have been hurt."
Chen Ge dangled the handcuffs and looked at Captain Yan and the other three officers on the other side of the table.
"This is the reason you used violence to knock them out?" The officer next to Captain Yan frowned deeply.
"I feel like I'm the victim. After all, they have the advantage in numbers."
"Have you ever seen a victim come to the police station with two perpetrators?"
"They were the ones who started it. I have a clear conscience."
Chen Ge and the four officers on the other side of the table stared at each other. In the end, it was Captain Yan who coughed to break the silence.
