Soul-eating Golden Coffin - C54

“Why are you in a daze? If you want to watch the commercial, go in and watch!” Liu Yunlong could no longer hold it in, and started to urge me forward again and again.

It was as if he had suddenly thrown a large stone into a calm water and turned my memory upside down.

I remember! This is the ad! The advertisement was wrong!

He remembered that when he watched the video at noon, there was an advertisement for nutrition products on the only wall that was exposed. Although I didn’t pay much attention to it at the time, but when I first came up, I remembered that there was already another advertisement for health wine on this billboard.

At this moment, he switched back to the commercial he saw in the video.

I was confused because I couldn’t remember which ad was first and which was later. After Liu Yunlong’s reminder, he finally understood. Which company would come in the evening to change the ad panel? Switch back the advertisement that was just hung two days ago? This obviously didn’t make sense! Also, the elevator had stopped for half a minute and it was still open!

Therefore, this elevator should be the same as the video. We can only see, but not touch …

If that was the case, then the consequences of not stopping him just now would be unimaginable!

To confirm my thoughts, I dragged Liu Yunlong behind me and squatted in front of the door. Then, I stretched out my right hand and slowly touched the floor inside the elevator. The cold wind whizzed past his hands. How did this look like there was a wall blocking his way?

Under Liu Yunlong’s gaze, I brought my hand close to the floor, put it down, and then — Through!

This place was indeed empty!

I clenched my right hand, which was already under the floor, and thought to myself, “Break!” Instantly. Everything in the elevator gradually turned transparent. In less than five seconds, the only thing left in front of us was the dark elevator hatch, from which the cold wind kept blowing out. I looked up and saw that the real elevator hatch was still on the ninth floor.

“This… “What’s going on?” Liu Yunlong had obviously been completely defeated by the scene from before. He stood in place, unsure of what to do.

It seems that if I didn’t pull him in time, he would be lying at the bottom of the cabin path.

“I’ll explain it to you later. The most urgent matter at hand is to inform the head of the academy to seal off this elevator immediately. Don’t activate it again until the case is investigated, otherwise more people will be fooled!” I said, and started the next elevator.

The elevator arrived quickly, so I dragged Liu Yunlong who was still in a daze and stepped in. After closing the door, I pressed on the button for the first floor. Seeing that his mind was elsewhere, I instructed, “You can guard the elevator door’s mouth after you go down. You have to ensure that the door is always open and no one is allowed to enter.

“Oh …” Liu Muran promised. Then he suddenly shouted, “Look at the floor numbers!”

I looked up. The LCD screen that showed the floor numbers seemed to be broken. It was dark and I couldn’t see which floor, but the elevator was still going down.

I feel that Liu Yunlong is making a big fuss over nothing. It’s no wonder that he needed to get used to this kind of thing after experiencing it for the first time.

“Ding!” The elevator stopped and I looked up again. The LCD screen had miraculously recovered, but it showed Level 2.

I was puzzled. I clearly ordered the first floor just now, but why did they go down to the second floor? Liu Yunlong who was at the side suddenly trembled.

“Why are you shaking? “You haven’t even started?” Looking at this guy’s face, I really don’t understand, it’s still a police officer.

“You … “Look …” Liu Yunlong trembled as he stretched out his arm, pointing outwards.

I looked back and saw that the hatch had been opened. It was dark outside, and I couldn’t see anything. It was facing the hatch ten meters away, and there was a bright red light box with a white background.

The sweat on my back has also come out, this is not an accident, definitely not!

“The mortuary… Shouldn’t there be a small independent yard at the back door? ” Fortunately, although I was afraid, my voice didn’t tremble.

“Later… Just picked it up and put it on… This is a temporary parking space. ” Liu Yunlong spoke a little more smoothly.

“Can this elevator come down? Didn’t you only go to the first floor? ” I thought of another problem.

“The other one only goes to the first floor …” This one can come down. ”

I don’t want to go into a morgue. So I hit the close button and the button on the first floor.

The elevator seemed to have broken down and there was no response. I clenched my fists again and activated the “Breaking Mirror” … It’s no use, I understand. This isn’t an illusion, how can I break it?

“Take the stairs!” Liu Yunlong took out his gun at some point, held it in his hand, and took the lead to walk out of the elevator.

I sighed in my heart. He had indeed been a soldier. It was just an instant of panic, but he was able to adjust his state of mind so quickly. If it was me from two months ago, I would probably still be in a daze.

We got out of the elevator and walked slowly to the right along the wall, because as we had noticed, the stairs were on the right side, behind the elevator. As he turned the corner, he saw a metal fence that was locked onto the staircase, preventing anyone from going up or down.

“Damn, this hospital is bullshit!” I have to sue them later. If the fire escape is not allowed to leave, what happens if there’s a fire? ” Liu Yunlong scolded in order to lessen his fear.

I looked at my phone. There was no signal, probably in the basement. Then, I recalled that when the Old Man Zhang was still alive, I had seen the phone in his room. It seemed to be installed in the hospital, the purpose being that if someone were to die and send it here, I could notify them in advance so that they can prepare. So he said, “Is there no one on duty in the morgue here? There had to be a phone call, right? Can’t we just go over and make a phone call? ”

Then we went back to the big light box. When he reached the entrance, he saw a yellow door slightly ajar, revealing bright lights within. We all breathed a sigh of relief. If there was a light, it meant there was someone there.

“Is anyone there?” I asked, slowly pushing open the ajar door.

Behind the door was clearly a duty room. The door was facing a two meter wide corridor, and there was a door five meters in front of them. It should be the morgue. On our right hand side was a window with two hardcover books, which should have been registered for the delivery of the bodies. Inside the window was a single bed with springs, a cabinet, and a desk. The tea on the table was smoking, but there was no one in the room.

The corner of the room was filled with offerings like paper money, ingots, and lanterns. The families of the deceased could choose to buy them when they wanted to, which was also a benefit that the gatekeeper had arranged for them.

“Is anyone there?” I asked again, but there was still no answer.

Liu Yunlong saw the phone on the desk, and immediately picked it up through the window. A moment later, he threw the microphone onto the table and cursed, “Damn it! There’s not even a sound! ”

I smiled bitterly. Actually, I should have thought about it earlier. Since “that thing” could come up with a way to get us down, why would it leave a phone number for us to call for help?

Since there was nothing we could use, we didn’t want to stay here. We planned to go back and study the broken elevator, or else climb up.

Just as he turned to leave, he heard a “pa” sound. The cup of hot tea on the table suddenly cracked and water splattered all over the floor. I immediately remembered a sentence in the “Record of the Dream”: “Things breaking up is a warning. Do not act rashly.” She quickly pulled Liu Yunlong, signalling him not to go out for the time being.

Liu Yunlong was confused by my actions. He raised his head and was about to speak, but his mouth kept on opening but no sound came out. Following his widened eyes, I saw that in front of the morgue’s door, there was a large pool of blood slowly seeping through the crack in the door.

I was still in a daze, but Liu Yunlong had already rushed to the door with a single stride, with the spear in hand.

“Don’t go in!” I quickly stopped him. Tonight’s series of events was obviously aimed at both of us. Behind the door, it definitely wasn’t a good thing. Besides, the book also said that one shouldn’t act rashly. If they rushed in now, wouldn’t they be asking for trouble?

“No way!” Liu Yunlong spoke softly: “The gatekeeper is missing and there are traces of blood here. How can we not investigate it thoroughly? I suspect this may be a murder scene. ” Then, without waiting for my reaction, he opened the door of the morgue and rushed in. Seeing this, it was useless for me to say anything more. In order to avoid any danger to him, I stepped across the bloodstain on the ground and followed him in.

The lights in the morgue were on, too, but they were pale. Liu Yunlong was standing at the source of the blood, staring blankly at a stretcher with a pulley. I looked around. The morgue was temporary, so it didn’t bring the big refrigerators. There were only a few foldable stretcher beds scattered around. Moreover, it was still early winter, so he wasn’t afraid that the corpse would rot in a short period of time.

And there was only one corpse, the one that was constantly dripping blood in front of Liu Yunlong. Blood had already dyed the corpse’s bed sheets red. Liu Yunlong stood at the side, not daring to lift his hand to take a look.

“You’d better not move.” I stood in the doorway and tried to tell him in a gentle voice that I hoped the guy would listen to me.

But as if Liu Yunlong was deliberately going against me, after hearing the warning, he hesitated for a moment, and then removed the white bedsheet that covered the corpse. The nurse was lying on the stretcher. She had just come out from the elevator this morning. I saw it in the file Liu Yunlong was holding.

She was lying on her back, her limbs still in that most bizarre position. He was still wearing his dirty nurse’s uniform. It seemed that his family was not allowed to tidy up his deathwatch before the case was officially closed. However, his exposed face and hands had been wiped with a towel. Due to the long period of death, his skin had been corroded by the dust after stopping his metabolism. It had a greyish color to it, making him look very awkward.

Her eyes had already lost their moisture and her eyelids were stiff. Even if you wanted to help her close them, you probably wouldn’t be able to do so. The nurse’s left wrist was cut open by someone. Blood was pouring out from that wound.

Just when I was wondering why there would be so much blood flowing out of the corpse that had been dead for several days, Liu Yunlong reached out to place the nurse’s arm above the ground, preventing her from bleeding again.

The corpse had already become stiff, so how could he break it open? Liu Yunlong used only a bit of strength, and the nurse lying on the ground turned her body around with her arms, as if she had become weightless. At this moment, the nurse’s face was facing me. I saw that her mouth, which was originally closed, had actually opened. It seemed like there was something moving within her mouth.
