Chapter 61 His eyes are dark and unclear
"Why……"
Xia Linxing sat up from the ground dizzy.
When he pushed Shen Sibai away, he tripped over something on the ground, which was not sure whether it was a prop or a step, and rolled out uncontrollably.
I don't know where he is now...
Xia Linxing looked up and saw his surroundings were completely dark. Besides the sound of the air conditioner, the only sound he could hear was his own breathing. The livestream teacher who had been filming with him had also disappeared. It seemed as if he was the only one left in the room.
I have to find a way to contact other people...
Xia Linxing supported himself on the ground with his hands and climbed up. However, just as his right foot touched the ground and his legs hadn't had time to exert force, he felt a sharp pain in his right ankle.
"Well……"
Xia Linxing groaned, his body uncontrollably tilting to the side. He quickly waved his hands in the air, finally touching the wall to the side, and finally managed to steady himself and prevent his ankle from getting worse.
He tried to move his ankle slightly.
Just a slight movement caused the stinging pain in his ankle to shoot up like an electric current, causing Xia Linxing to unconsciously let out a "hissing" sound in pain.
"It's over..." Xia Linxing was feeling a little desperate and was thinking about it in his heart.
Being alone in a haunted house was scary enough, but he also twisted his foot, and he couldn't even escape.
Xia Linxing could only stand up by holding the wall, letting his twisted right foot lightly touch the ground with his toes, and then he dragged his right foot and limped forward, sticking to the wall.
Xia Linxing: Although I'm going out, I'm still very scared.jpg
When the haunted house NPC appeared earlier, Xia Linxing was actually frightened. However, his will to complete the task overcame his fear. Later, because he was worried that Shen Sibai would be hit by the door, he forgot his fear for a moment and was able to complete the set of actions at that time.
But now, the incident was over and the adrenaline had faded. Xia Linxing, bathed in the whirring air of the air conditioner, began to feel scared belatedly...
With the dim light, he could only barely make out that this seemed to be a hospital ward. There was a bed in the center of the room, and as Xia Linxing walked along the wall, he even touched a mobile IV pole leaning against the wall.
He groped his way forward, trying to find the door - he didn't even know how or where he had rolled into this "ward".
After finally finding the corner of the wall, Xia Linxing was about to turn when his toes kicked something in the corner. He heard a "beep" sound and the thing in the corner suddenly lit up.
"Ah!" Xia Linxing's heart skipped a beat. If his foot hadn't been sprained and he couldn't use his strength, he would have jumped up in fright.
“Drip—drip—”
The thing continued to ring.
Xia Linxing patted his wildly beating chest and looked closely—
It was an old-fashioned ECG monitor. The light that had just come on was the monitor's screen. Spider-web-like cracks covered the screen, but it still firmly displayed the monitoring results. The straight line without any life fluctuations, accompanied by the "beep-beep" warning sound, echoed in the empty ward.
Just at this moment, "Bang!"
Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.
"Ah!" Xia Linxing almost jumped up again, looking in the direction of the sound in shock.
“Bang!”
The knocking on the door continued, as if it would continue as long as there was a response from inside.
"Who, who?" Xia Linxing bravely and tremblingly shouted towards the direction of the knocking sound.
The knocking on the door suddenly stopped.
Xia Linxing swallowed nervously, covered his chest precautionarily, and prepared himself to be startled.
But I don’t want to…
"Xia Linxing?" A familiar voice came from the door.
Xia Linxing's eyes suddenly lit up.
It’s Xie Tinglan!
For the first time, Xia Linxing felt that Xie Tinglan's voice was so pleasant and magnetic, like the sound of nature!
He immediately limped towards the direction where Xie Tinglan's voice came from, "It's me! It's me! I'm inside, Teacher Xie!"
There was a "clicking" sound coming from the door, as if Xie Tinglan was trying to open the door.
"This door is locked..." Xie Tinglan's voice came in: "Xia Linxing, can you see if you can open it from the inside?"
"Let me take a look..." Xia Linxing finally moved slowly to the door. With the help of the light from the monitor, he accurately found the door handle and pressed it... but didn't press it.
"I can't open it..." Xia Linxing's voice began to sound desperate.
Xie Tinglan seemed to sense Xia Linxing's emotions and comforted her, "Don't panic, I'll go find the staff to open the door..."
Xia Linxing responded obediently and leaned against the door listening to the hurried footsteps outside fading away.
After an unknown amount of time, footsteps were heard outside again. Xia Linxing straightened up in surprise and knocked on the door. "Teacher Xie, are you back?"
"Xia Linxing?!"
Shen Sibai's surprised voice came from outside, "Are you in here?!"
"Great, I finally found you!"
Huh? Xia Linxing was stunned. The person who came was actually Shen Sibai.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps. It was Xie Tinglan who had returned.
"I asked the staff to get the key back. Xia Linxing, you—oh, Shen Sibai, you are here too..."
"Teacher Xie..." Shen Sibai turned and nodded to Xie Tinglan, then looked at the key in his hand, "Is Xia Linxing locked up in there?"
"Yeah." Xie Tinglan responded perfunctorily, walked to the door and inserted the key into the keyhole. "Click", the lock was opened.
Before Xie Tinglan could pull out the key, a hand impatiently pressed on the door handle, pushing Xie Tinglan aside and rushing in.
"Xia Linxing, are you okay?!"
Xie Tinglan looked down at the key still hanging on the door, then looked up at Shen Sibai who had already rushed to Xia Linxing, his eyes dark and unclear.
