This world is terrible

Chapter 13
In the winter night, the crowd dragged a long line and marched on the quiet street.And ahead, the entrance to the underground parking lot is already in sight.

It was also pitch black.

The world at this moment seems to have been pulled down by an invisible god for a moment.

"Hey!"

Suddenly, there was a surprise cry from ahead: "There is electricity! The light in the underground parking lot is still on!"

"The entrance to the facility is on the second basement floor, let's go down quickly!"

Gao Yi poked his head out among the crowd.

There is still light inside the underground parking lot. Is this an official backup measure in case of a power outage?

Later, Gao Yi turned his head and found another sign indicating the emergency escape route.

[exit].

Unlike usual, the display of the indicator light below, whether it is [Power] or [Standby], is completely dimmed.

"The entire Fushun shopping mall is not powered on at all."

For some reason, an indescribable sense of disobedience filled Gao Yi's heart.

"Since there is no electricity, how did the lights at the entrance of the underground parking lot turn on?"

Gao Yi quietly left the team and turned into a dark corner.

He felt the need to check it out.

[Mysterious Surprise], equip!

Swish!
The windbreaker fell down, and Gao Yi moved against the corner of the wall, like a well-trained agent, slowly approaching the light while observing carefully.

I've already been bitten by a street lamp head once.

To be honest, Gao Yi didn't want to be bitten by the same wound again.

The lighting of the steep slope at the entrance of the underground parking lot basically depends on the small wall lamps installed on the walls on both sides.But as far as he knows, this kind of small wall lamp does not seem to be within the scope of their camouflage.

The same is true in reality, Gao Yi's investigation was fruitless, and there were no traces left on these wall lamps.

Is it because I think too much?
Back on the second basement floor, everyone has completed the escape and has safely entered the facility.

In front of the facility door, an uncle was shouting: "Hey—that little brother, come in quickly! The security officer is broadcasting, we are going to close the door soon!"

"Oh good!"

Gao Yi woke up from his thoughts, and ran quickly to the entrance of the facility.

The security officers are already in charge of the overall situation inside, it seems that he is a little nervous.

The interior of the facility is filled with bright lights.According to the instructions in the escape book, people found plastic partitions in the large warehouse, and they are building simple compartments in the designated personal area.

Because it is a facility for emergency avoidance, it is naturally impossible to build it like a hotel, and everyone has a suite.

Everyone will live in this area without any shyness, and the facilities are willing to provide plastic partitions, which is already thankful.

"Uncle, are you a security officer?"

Gao Yi turned his head to look at the uncle who was operating to close the protective door.

The somewhat bald uncle smiled: "Of course I am not a security officer. The security officers are all in the main control room. There are so many things to worry about in such a large facility."

"No, my current operation is what they taught on the radio just now."

[CLOSE DOOR - ENTER PASSWORD PLEASE].

With a freehand smile, the uncle pressed a red button.

Woo-woo-!
[The protective door is closed urgently! ]

[The facility has triggered an automatic protection program! ]
"what happened!"

The outside scene is divided by the protective door, which is completely closed in an instant.

Gao Yi rushed into the protective door control room, but no matter how much he typed on the keyboard, there was only one line of bright red and eye-catching characters on the monitor in front of him.

[The self-protection program has started! ]
[Please enter the key again to operate after 24 hours! ]
[Remaining time - 23:58:45]

"Uncle, what have you done!" Gao Yi was startled and angry, and turned his head to question.

"What... what's going on, I can't make it!"

The uncle also looked confused: "I followed the instructions of the security officer!"

"Instructions from the security officer?!"

Gao Yi slapped the table: "Is this an operation that a security officer with normal intelligence can do? Where is the main control room, I want to sacrifice..."

boom.

boom.

boom.

All the lights went off.

The facility was suddenly swept by darkness.

"what--"

The crowd in the open space was in an uproar and panicked.

"Who turned off the light? Are you sick?!"

"Where's the switch, did any of you see the switch?"

"These lights have no switches at all! The programs to control the lights are all in the main control room."

"This this this..."

Gao Yi glanced at the frightened uncle who thought he had made a big mistake.He sighed and patted his shoulder.

"Uncle, this is not your problem."

"Really...really?"

The uncle was about to cry.

"It's a problem in the control room." Gao Yi looked solemn and shook his windbreaker.

Among the refugee crowd, several young and strong men also came out at this time. They looked unfriendly and had the same purpose as Gao Yi, and they all planned to find the main control room.

Several people came to a slanting intersection.On the signboard in the darkness at the side, the words [idle people stop] can be seen faintly.

"Hmph, idlers stop..."

A man's face was ugly, and he strode down: "First, we disturbed the people in the middle of the night, what kind of drills, and now we come in and suddenly turn off the lights, we really think we have no temper."

At this moment, the graffiti on Gao Yi's blue windbreaker suddenly emitted a faint fluorescence.He was a little surprised, and hurriedly looked around himself.

what's going on?Never met before?
Gao Yi found that the graffiti monsters on their clothes seemed to have changed in unison from their original appearance of laughing and joking.

They seem to be... crying in terror? !

don't go down...

Don't go down!

Gao Yi's heart trembled suddenly, his goosebumps concentrated urgently, and he felt the indescribable pulse of this windbreaker.

It's an intuition.

A sense of crisis unique to investigators who specialize in tracking down mysteries!

"What happened next..."

Everything tonight seemed to be calculated by someone.They just walked into the cage set up so peacefully and let others slaughter them.

"Brother? Brother, are you okay?"

The uncle followed, a little embarrassed: "I thought about it, let's go together. After all, more or less, it's all because of my wrong operation and the power outage."

"no!"

The uncle looked strange, and looked at Gao Yi who was clearly in a strange state: "Brother?"

"Don't go down, don't you all go down."

"I'm going down..."

Gao Yi muttered, and suddenly resolutely said: "I'm going down!"

The protective door has been closed, and in this dark 24 hours, no matter how he escapes, he will eventually face reality.

"Uncle, remember it...you must remember it well, no matter what noises are made below, you must never come down!"

Without looking back, Gao Yi rushed down quickly.

Considering the placement of various pipelines and the protection of equipment isolation, the main control room is located at a lower depth than the living area.

A beam of high-gloss flashlight pierced the darkness, and Gao Yi easily came to the door of the main control room, but he was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

The door of the main control room seemed to be torn apart by something, and fell to the side in pieces.

In the main control room, the equipment was falling apart, and the ground was covered with countless documents like flying snow.A few men who arrived in one step, were standing in the mess at this time, with a look of surprise on their faces.

"Why is there no one here?"

"Ahem, they didn't turn on the exhaust, why is there so much dust?"

"The equipment is not working at all! There is no power here..."

One person was suddenly terrified: "But the broadcast...how did the broadcast come out?"

　[The Mountains Call] It's time to play.
