The red number on the elevator screen slowly changed from -4 to -2. When they reached this floor, the elevator stopped again without warning.
The silver-gray elevator door slowly opened. There was nothing in the pitch-black corridor.
"I heard from my master that the security company used to provide a place for their employees to stay, they were allowed to bring their family members to stay in the basement. Then it seems that something happened, the boss drove everyone out, and no longer let the unemployed security guards live in the company. "Bai Shinian looked at the corridor outside, her body pressed against the elevator, shrinking in the corner of the elevator.
"Do you know what happened at that time?"
"I believe a girl came home at night and was murdered on the second floor. If you follow the corridor, you should be able to see the girl's memorial tablet and picture. "
"I haven't seen the picture or the memorial tablet." Han Fei grumbled, "But the girl was scared away by me."
"What did you say?" Bai Shinian pressed the elevator button madly. After a long time, the elevator doors slowly closed. "Every time the elevator passed the second floor, it would stop. It's very creepy. Someone once saw a girl standing outside the elevator. She appeared to be observing the people inside the elevator like she was looking for the killer."
"So something like that has happened inside this building." Han Fei felt like he had found the right person. With Bai Shinian as a guide, he could save a lot of time.
The two took the elevator to the 4th floor but the old elevator stopped again when it passed the 2nd floor.
Han Fei also thought that was strange. The elevator seemed to stop whenever it reached an even number.
Compared to the underground floors, the corridors above ground appeared clean and tidy. There was a light on the wall every few metres, it lit up the surroundings.
The floor looked normal, like a normal office building, there was nothing wrong with it. But in the cryptic world, the biggest problem was not being able to find the problem.
There was a very faint smell of burnt plastic in the air. Han Fei's nose felt uncomfortable but he could not pinpoint the source of the smell. The smell appeared to be seeping out from deep within the walls.
"Was there a fire here?"
"No." Bai Shinian scratched her forehead and straightened her security cap.
He walked out from the elevator and reached out to grab the patrol form that was hanging next to the elevator.
Names were written on the old form with a red pen but most of the names had been erased.
"Who's playing a prank?" Bai Shinian took out a pen from her coat pocket and was about to fill in the inspection report for tonight, when she suddenly discovered that her name was not on the report: "So strange?"
As she repeatedly flipped through the inspection form, the sound of water rushing into her ears, Bai Shinian's expression became more and more strange.
"Impossible! Someone was playing a prank! Someone must be playing a prank! "His eyes slowly bulged out, and his normal face seemed to be covered with a layer of dust.
"What's wrong?" Han Fei saw that Bai Shinian's condition was not quite right, and there was a hint of concern in his voice.
"Our building's patrol report is changed every Monday. When I entered the B4 tonight, it was Wednesday, but now the date on the report has changed to Thursday! And I can't find my name on it! "Bai Shinian spoke faster, her emotions more and more unstable.
"If it's only a difference of one day, you should see your name if you flip to the next page but in reality, your name is nowhere to be found in the report. This means that you entered the fourth floor a long time ago but never came out." Han Fei's way of consoling was straightforward.
"No! How could that be? I remember it very clearly! " The skin on Bai Shinian's face slowly curled up, his five fingers tightly grasped the patrol report, and then rushed to a room on the second floor: "Master! Are you still there! Wang Shan! Sister Lan! Is anyone there! "
Bai Shinian finally stopped in front of a door. He shook the door handle hard, but the door could not be opened.
Until Han Fei came over and helped him kick open the door.
As soon as he entered the room, Bai Shinian began to rummage through the drawers, looking for something. He pulled open the drawers, scattering documents all over the floor.
"Why isn't there anything?"
The drawer contained the information of all the security guards, but Bai Shinian's was not there. He was very unwilling to give up, and then turned on the old computer on the table.
The screen flickered several times, and finally could be used. He frantically clicked the mouse, his eyes bloodshot.
There was nothing related to him in all the backup files, as if he had been erased by the company.
"Nothing, nothing, still nothing!"
Looking at the computer desktop, Bai Shinian, at the last moment of despair, opened the computer recycle bin.
He looked at the garbage that had not been thoroughly cleaned up, and suddenly found a folder from a month ago.
After opening it, there was a backup of the surveillance video inside.
Bai Shinian clicked on it with the thought of giving it a try, and a video began to play on the computer screen.
The midnight elevator rose from the fourth floor, and finally stopped on the second floor.
Then the patrol form hanging at the entrance of the corridor inexplicably fell to the ground, the paper was flipped, and the name on it was crudely erased.
Faint footprints began to appear in the corridor, and a faint shadow could be vaguely seen passing through, stopping at the door of the office.
In the empty corridor, the office door lock suddenly began to shake violently, as if someone was frantically shaking the door handle.
A moment later, the door was opened.
After the first video finished playing, Bai Shinian looked at the second video, which was also filmed by the surveillance camera, and the position of the surveillance camera was above his head.
In the second video, the office late at night seemed to be haunted, the drawers were pulled open, the cabinets containing the documents were pushed over, and all kinds of documents were thrown all over the floor.
When everything calmed down again, the computer screen that was originally black suddenly lit up, and the documents on the desktop were opened one by one, the last to be opened was the recycle bin.
Soon, the computer began to play the surveillance video, and at the last stage of the video, the computer flat screen reflected a face full of blood and scars.
Then a line of words appeared on the computer — Do you remember?
Following the angle of the camera, Bai Shinian slowly raised his head. He looked at the surveillance camera above his head, and at this time, his movements were exactly the same as the ghost in the video.
A strong smell of decay wafted out from his body, his bones began to dislocate and twist, and Bai Shinian's handsome face was rapidly rotting. He looked at the video on the computer screen, at the ghost in the video, and at his own face reflected on the screen.
He slowly opened his mouth, and said in a somewhat bitter voice: "So I'm already dead …"
The walkie-talkie on his shoulder emitted a static noise. He did not know when it started, but no one had responded to him, he seemed to have been talking to himself.
"I remember now, everyone was led behind the steel door, only I was trapped inside the room at the 4th floor underground."
"So the person who is most afraid of ghost stories is me, so the most cowardly security guard is me …" He kept mumbling to himself, "No wonder I'm no longer afraid of ghost stories …"
"What are you doing here?"
Looking at Bai Shinian who had completely changed, Han Fei opened the urn and released Weep and Lee Zai. "It's not a big deal to become a ghost, many people can't even become ghosts, you're much luckier than them."
Pulling the confused Bai Shinian to his side, Han Fei used Soul-Depth Touch to forcibly hold the man's hand. "If you really feel lonely, we have a big family here that welcomes you."
