Chapter 417: Horrible Night



"The construction team had long since stopped wanting to stay in the depths of the morgue. They blocked the road leading to the depths of the morgue and began to expand the morgue according to the blueprints."

"After coming out from the depths of the underground morgue, there were indeed no more accidents, and the construction team began to work intensively."

"Time is limited, and when the deadline is approaching, they will work overtime until very late to catch up."

"The school also knows that it's not easy for them, so they sent people to bring them water and provide help as much as they can." Zhang Li gritted his teeth and said, "The school gave this task to the teachers and security team who stayed on campus. At the beginning, everyone went there together, but later the teacher probably saw that there was nothing wrong with the morgue and often left early. The other people in the security team didn't care about it either, so in the end they handed everything over to me alone."

"The underground morgue has been expanded several times, and the internal roads are very complicated. As a new security guard, I can easily get lost even if I have a map in hand."

"With three days left before the deadline, the construction team became anxious and hired a new group of workers, who were divided into two shifts and worked day and night to rush the project."

"They work day and night, so I have no choice but to accompany them. It's okay during the day, but at night, I feel weird every time I enter the underground morgue."

"It was summer, and it was as hot as a steamer outside, but once I entered the morgue, not only was it not hot, I even shivered for no apparent reason."

“The newly hired workers had no idea what was happening deep in the underground morgue. They foolishly thought that this working environment was very good. Some of them felt tired at night and simply lay down on the ground with waste paper boxes and took a nap.” Zhang Li pressed his cigarette butt hard into the iron plate, and his story came to the end.

"The underground corpse storage at night is different from that during the day. I can't tell you exactly what the difference is. On the third night before the deadline, strange things started to happen again."

"I received a call at 1 a.m. The underground morgue called to say someone was missing. I quickly notified other people and rushed to the underground morgue."

"When we were halfway there, the underground morgue called again to say that the person had been found. I was furious at the time, and what was even more irritating was that when I reported the situation to the teacher in charge, he scolded me severely, saying that I called him without knowing the situation clearly."

"I couldn't refute it. I went back to the dormitory and had just laid down for a while when another worker from the underground morgue called me in an anxious tone, saying that another person was missing."

"This time I asked the other party about his situation, and he told me that the worker who went missing at first heard someone calling him, and when he looked up, he saw someone in the passage waving at him, so he followed. When he was halfway there, he found that this road seemed to go deeper into the underground morgue, and he felt something was wrong, so he quickly ran back."

"The second missing worker went missing while out looking for the first worker. His phone is unreachable and we don't know where he is now."

"When I heard this was an urgent matter, I rushed to the underground morgue while I asked a teacher to make a phone call."

"When the teacher learned about the incident, he asked me to go over first to stabilize the situation and he would be there soon."

"That night I stayed in the underground morgue with the workers, and only found the worker deep in the underground passage when it was almost dawn."

"He was lying unconscious next to the half-dug morgue."

"No one can explain the reason for this. A sense of uneasiness spread among the construction team. They don't want to stay here any longer. But seeing that the construction period is about to end and the expansion is about to be completed, it would be a pity to give up at this time."

"Finally, the school stepped in and asked the security team to accompany the construction team in the underground morgue at night to ensure that the expansion was completed within the construction period."

"On the second to last night, I stayed with two other security guards. If the construction team has any questions, they can ask us directly."

"In the second half of the night, I couldn't hold on any longer, so I found a corner and took a nap. The night was relatively peaceful, and nothing went wrong."

"The construction was in its final stages. I spent so much time in the underground morgue at night that I slept in the dormitory all day."

"On the last night, I asked the two security guards to go to the underground morgue. The first half of the night was quiet, and I thought nothing would happen in the second half, so I found an inconspicuous room and used a few broken cement bags as a cushion to secretly rest for a while."

"Maybe it was because I was so nervous during that time, I fell asleep very quickly."

"When I opened my eyes again after a daze, I found that the underground morgue had become much darker. The work lights brought by the construction team had all been turned off, leaving only the old-fashioned wall lamps."

"I was lying in the corner and looked up. There were people coming and going in the passage outside. It seemed that the construction team was still busy."

"I just woke up, my head is a little unclear, I took out my phone to check the time."

"Before I could see the time on the screen, I heard footsteps and someone walked in."

"Other people were working outside, and I was lazy inside. If someone saw me, it would have a bad impact, so I kept silent."

"The man came in, walked around, and then went out again. I looked at my phone. It was 3:40 in the morning, and there were several unread text messages and missed calls on the screen."

"I was lying on the cement bag and clicked on the message. It was from two other security guards. They asked me where I was."

Before the smoke in the room had dissipated, Zhang Li took out another cigarette, lit it, and took a few deep puffs.

"I didn't think much of it at the time and I sent him a message: I'm still in the morgue, where are you? Did you sneak back to the dormitory?"

"I'm a newcomer and I've always wanted to build a good relationship with them. I even replied in a joking tone: You guys are so mean that you didn't even ask me to come with you when you left."

"After more than ten seconds, the person replied to my message and told me to come out quickly because many people were looking for me."

"I'm a little puzzled. The construction team is still working outside, but these two people ran away secretly. Now they say that many people are looking for me."

"When I was about to send him a message, the man called me. After I answered the phone, I found that things were completely different from what I imagined."

"The first thing that person said was, 'The expansion has been completed, the construction team has withdrawn, what are you doing in the morgue alone?'"

Zhang Li bit off the cigarette in his mouth and grasped his knees with both hands. "When I heard him say this, I looked outside. There were people coming and going in the corridor. One of them seemed to have heard the noise and walked directly towards the room where I was."
