Chapter 205 Collapse of the City (3)
There is a narrow staircase leading to the rooftop of the teaching building.
The stairs were attached to the side of the wall, with high handrails. It was certainly possible to get there from inside the building, but the main door on the ground floor was locked. Su Yue tried, but it didn't open. Thinking less was more trouble, he simply left from the side.
The stairs on the outside of this type of building are usually very narrow and steep, only allowing one person to pass through. You have to look up when walking up, so the blood-red sky appears particularly clearly in your eyes, and the dark clouds seem to be about to fall down.
The teaching building has five floors. Going up the narrow stairs makes the distance feel longer.
Su Yue was on guard the whole time, afraid that something would come out. After all, the passage here was narrow, and whether fighting or hiding, it would be much more troublesome than on a flat road.
As a result, I made it to the fourth floor safely. Going up from the fourth floor, I saw a heavy iron door at the corner of the fourth floor and a half.
It was a very heavy and old iron door, covered with rust, but hanging on the door was a very trendy U-shaped lock. The lock body was a very bright fluorescent pink, and there was a toy bear fastened on it. The bear was also very street style, colorful, and its eyes were two patch buttons.
Didi.
The message alert sounded again.
-【Yuuna: Ah... I forgot to mention that there's no key to the door to the fifth floor. You'll need to find a way to get in.】
-【Yuuna: But we have to hurry, or we'll be discovered by the school patrol. [Heart]】
"Patrolman?" Zhao Shuo frowned.
Both he and Su Yue had accepted the mission, so the message was displayed on both of their screens. It was conceivable that the patrollers were the enemies in this mission, and they were not the easiest to defeat.
At the same time, a countdown of [00:02:59] has appeared on the task interface.
That is to say, if the lock cannot be opened within 3 minutes, the patrolman will appear.
"Is anyone good at picking locks?" Zhao Shuo said, a little panicked. "Or is it too late for us to go back to the first floor? No, the door on the first floor is locked too. Shit, what should we do now?"
"It's okay, I'll do it." Su Yue said calmly.
Zhao Shuo asked in surprise, "Boss, you also have this skill?"
"I know a little bit." Su Yue said, and asked Cang Zhi, "Do you have any wire or something?"
Cang Zhi readily handed over a piece of wire. Zhao Shuo was stunned, wondering where Cang Zhi found this thing.
In fact, as soon as Su Yue took it, he knew that this iron wire was just squeezed out by Cang Zhi using his divine power, and it still felt warm to the touch.
Su Yue inserted the wire into the U-shaped lock with great fanfare, turning it left and right, and taking advantage of Zhao Shuo's unpreparedness, he injected a burst of divine power into it. With a "click", the teddy bear toy fell off, and the U-shaped lock opened.
Zhao Shuo's jaw dropped. Su Yue pushed the door open as if nothing had happened and said, "Come in."
After entering the iron gate, the 3-minute countdown automatically stopped and the group continued to climb. They walked up the last half floor to a platform. There was still a small height difference from the last step to the platform, and Su Yue was the first to go up.
A huge machine of unknown origin stood on the platform, its shadow resembling some kind of monster under the blood-red sunset.
In the shadow of the machine, on the edge of the platform, stood a girl.
She was wearing a pure black Japanese school uniform, with only narrow white edges on the collar, cuffs and hem of her pleated skirt. Her hair was also jet black and grew to her waist. She was very, very thin, as thin as a piece of paper, and her legs were long and thin. Standing on the edge of the roof, it seemed as if a gust of wind could blow her off.
Her bangs were neatly tied to cover her eyebrows, leaving only her dark eyes exposed, giving her small and delicate face a ghostly and mysterious aura.
"Hello." The girl smiled slightly, her red lips curled up slightly, "I'm Yuna, can you help me?"
.
Of course you can.
After all, Yuna is a quest NPC.
No more option boxes popped up at this point, after all, the characters were standing right before him. Su Yue didn't intend to cause trouble on purpose, so he asked, "How can I help you?"
"I lost something very important. It's in this teaching building." Yuna pointed to the big machine in front of her. Su Yue then saw that there was actually a door on the side of the machine, which should lead to entering the enclosed teaching building.
Yuna: "There are strange things in here... I don't dare to go in. So, can you please help me get my things out?"
"What did you lose?" Cang Zhi asked.
Yuna ignored him.
Cang Zhi: “…”
I forgot, this was the task that Su Yue and Zhao Shuo took on.
It seems that the NPC will not respond to anyone other than the character who accepts the quest when talking about the quest.
Su Yue asked, "What did you lose?"
"My most beloved doll." Yuna whispered, "There is something very important inside..."
She suddenly stopped talking and smiled again. "Anyway, please go into the teaching building and get my favorite doll back. I'm not sure where I lost it, but it's probably on the first floor, or in the basement, or in the elevator... I can't remember exactly where, but please!"
Yuna added, "By the way, I can't stay here for too long. It will be very dangerous to stay outside before dark, so you must help me find the doll within an hour and a half, otherwise I'm afraid we will all die."
Yuna: "Are you ready now? Any questions?"
Su Yue was mentally prepared for the fact that it would be dangerous to stay outside before dark, otherwise the initial broadcast would not have said something like "The city protection agency will patrol when the true night comes when the sky gets dark", so he didn't intend to ask about the topic of darkness.
Su Yue asked: "What's inside the teaching building?"
Yuna chuckled at the question, and with a magnificent turn, she looked up at the sky. Then, looking back, she said with a smile, "I don't know... maybe it's a ghost."
