Chapter 113

To be honest, Qiu Yufei couldn't figure out how long she had been walking around in this parking lot.

It was so empty, so empty that it seemed as if she had no end. She was walking alone in it, and all she could hear was the bubby man's chattering voice and her own reverberating footsteps. At times, she even wondered if she had accidentally entered a self-calculating holographic game, where all the scenes were randomly generated as she looked, with no end and no meaning.

But she couldn't seem to find any other solution except to keep rushing - she had already passed through the long-distance channel of the whale man and Xu Ming. The only thing that could be confirmed at present was that she and Xu Ming, like each other, had entered the scene described in a certain level of the post "Lights on the Haunted Building", but it was impossible to determine which level it was...

because at least three of the stories in that Lianwen Building took place in parking lots. And they were all underground parking lots.

Qiu Yufei had never resented the lack of human imagination as much as she did today. What if she had changed two more scenes?

Unable to lock on to a specific floor, naturally, it was unclear what the specific content of this parking lot corresponded to. Then it seemed that all she could do now was to try to find clues as Xu Ming said... The problem was that she had not found anything effective so far.

Along the way, she didn't see even a decent notice. The only two things that looked like clues were the different license plates in all directions and the letter numbers used to identify different areas in the parking lot.

She tried to study the former, but found nothing. The whale fat man asked Xu Ming from a distance, and the other party also felt that there was no need to spend more time on this thing. At most, when you see a more special license plate, you can go up and take a closer look; otherwise, with so many cars and so many license plates, it will take forever to study them.

... In fact, even if Xu Ming didn't say so, Qiu Yufei really didn't dare to look at those license plates anymore.

To be precise, she didn't dare to get close to those parked cars anymore -

those cars that seemed to be empty, but sometimes, they would send out strong sights. Even when you turn your head and look carefully, you can still vaguely see the outline of the driver's seat through the windshield.

A vague, human-like outline.

When Qiu Yufei noticed this thing for the first time, she was so scared that she almost couldn't breathe, and her heart almost stopped. After a long while, she came to her senses from the whale blubber man's call, and then she hurriedly grabbed the whale blubber man and ran away.

After that, she refused to get closer again, preferring to stand a few meters away and squint her myopic eyes.

In addition to the license plate, the only information that can be regarded as information is the parking lot's zoning letters. But this doesn't seem to be so easy to figure out -

she's not sure if she's lost her way, or if there's something wrong with the zoning numbers in this place. She always feels that the alphabetical order here is messed up.

Qiu Yufei remembered clearly that her initial position was in "Area C". She originally thought that as long as she could find a way to get around to "A" or "Z", she might be able to find the exit; however, the fact is that after a long wandering, she successfully sent herself from "Area C" to "Area G", and then went around again and directly to "Area L".

Don't ask her where HIJK in the middle went, she also wants to know.

She doesn't even know whether she is farther away from the exit or closer. She only knows that no matter how she walks, what she sees in front of her doesn't seem to change at all. The legendary "exit" seems to exist only in her imagination.

"I'm thinking, if it doesn't work, why don't we go to the car and have a look?" The fat man hung one hand on her bag strap, swaying like Tarzan, while trying to give advice, "Maybe we can find something?"

"Are you sure?" Qiu Yufei looked around nervously while hurrying on the road, "I always feel that there are things in those cars, the kind that will grab you and drag you desperately if you get close to them..."

She has a say in this, horror movies are all shot like this!

The fat man thought so, but still felt it was worth a try: "The problem is that it's not a good idea for you to keep wandering around like this. Look at this damn place, it's so quiet, and no one can make a sound except the two of us..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a "bang".

Qiu Yufei paused, and subconsciously wanted to turn her head, but she held back. After a second, she hesitated and said,

"What was that sound just now?"

"..." The whale man was not sure either. He pulled at her bag strap and tried to look back, but he saw nothing. "It seems to be the sound of the trunk of the car... opening?"

...So why did someone suddenly open the trunk?

More importantly, where did the person come from?

Qiu Yufei thought about it and suddenly felt her hands and feet cold. Unexpectedly, the next second, another terrifying sound appeared, which made her feel like she was falling into an ice cave -

another "bang" sound, sounding like the trunk was opened and then closed heavily. Following closely, there was a series of clear footsteps.

One by one, rigid and stiff. It didn't sound very neat, it felt like mopping the floor, but there was no doubt that it was approaching this way.

Approaching where they were.

"..." Her breathing involuntarily stagnated, Qiu Yufei lowered her eyes slightly, and exchanged a terrified look with the wax block hanging on the bag strap.

The next moment, the wax block hid in the bag without hesitation, and Qiu Yufei ran away!

The footsteps, no longer suppressed, echoed heavily in the space, like a cluster of rapidly sweeping flames burning in the space. As if startled by the sound, the car alarms on both sides also rang one after another, and the sharp beeping sound filled the eardrums for a while, making Qiu Yufei more and more dizzy.

What was even more frightening was that, despite the noise all around, she could still catch the strange footsteps amidst the screams

. They were slowly and slowly approaching.

The blubber man was still talking to himself as he climbed up the edge of her bag and looked back, watching and broadcasting the situation:

"Oh, I saw it! No wonder its footsteps were so sticky, it turned out to be a lame one... 1.617 meters, 1.617 meters... Hey, you know what, it walks quite steadily."

Qiu Yufei: "..."

Can you shut up! Can you stop talking about skits at this time!

I don't know how long I've been running, even breathing has become difficult. Seeing another huge pillar appear in front of her, Qiu Yufei gritted her teeth and dodged without hesitation. She took a breath for a moment. The alarms behind her stopped and the whole world became quiet. Qiu

Yufei closed her eyes and her chest rose and fell violently. The whale man stretched his neck to look behind the pillar and whispered to her, "There's nothing behind it."

"...Yeah." Qiu Yufei managed to respond, but she still stood there without daring to move. After confirming that she no longer heard the dragging footsteps in her ears, she carefully turned out from behind the pillar.

It looks like... she really got rid of it.

Qiu Yufei closed her eyes again, breathed a sigh of relief, and ran until her exhausted body almost slid down the pillar. She tried to calm her breathing, and after a long while, she finally found her voice.

"It's not okay to go on like this, right?" She whispered to the whale man, "Why don't you ask Teacher Mingming again? Aren't there a lot of people living in her book..."

She knew that Xu Ming had specially stuffed a lot of people into the rule book before leaving. Even Panpan's mother checked in with a serious face. If one or two of them could be released now, it would be useful or not, but at least they could keep her company.

The whale fat man hanging on the edge of the bag shook his head:

"Of course I've asked, it's not possible."

Gu Yunshu and the others all relied on their skills to collect the rule book, so they could get it out if they wanted. The problem is that the people inside don't know the situation outside, and they are not the real holders of the rule book. Even if they slap the book loudly outside, the people inside may not be able to feel it. The only ones who can respond to the outside world in time are Xu Ming's thirty A Jiao, but what's the point of releasing A Jiao at this time...

In this situation where special effects are not needed, A Jiao's strength is just for companionship. But isn't it enough to have it as a companion?

"..."

Hearing this, Qiu Yufei couldn't help but look at the whale fat man more.

Anyway, if possible, she still hopes to have someone else to accompany her.

"So this notebook is really useless to me." Turning her attention back to her bag, Qiu Yufei changed the subject a little stiffly. The whale man looked at her deeply and slid down the bag strap: "No, if you want, you can also use it to slap flies."

"Forget it then..." Qiu Yufei muttered, looking back at the pillar behind her, and then she realized that she had unknowingly run to Area A again.

The order of this place is really messy... Qiu Yufei thought silently, and walked forward a few steps, and her sight suddenly paused.

About ten meters away from her, there was a big exit sign, and a huge arrow was printed on the wall, pointing to the upward ramp not far away.

Opposite the exit sign was a door.

It was not a door to leave, but a double glass door. Behind the door was an independent small space. A black Mercedes-Benz was parked in the space. Next to the Mercedes-Benz stood a figure wearing a hat, holding a water pipe in his hand...

It looked like a self-service car wash.

It looked just as strange, but at least it was a new scene.

Qiu Yufei looked around the exit sign and the car wash station twice. After a slight hesitation, she decided to follow Director Xu's instructions - no matter what, she still had to collect information first.

So she carefully turned to the store on the right and tried to knock on the glass wall, but no one responded. She held her breath and moved to the door, and the two glass doors opened automatically.

It was not until this moment that Qiu Yufei noticed that the man who was washing the car had not changed his movements from beginning to end. The spray gun in his hand was still spraying clean water out, and the liquid flowed along the car body and all over the ground, soaking most of his pants, but he was like nothing happened.

...Looking closely at the man's exposed right hand, the fingers and wrist were all obvious spherical joints.

This is a dummy.

The dummy's face was hidden under the brim of the hat, making it difficult to see clearly. For some reason, the standing posture seemed a little crooked. Qiu Yufei poked it tentatively again, making sure there was no reaction, then pressed hard on the chest, as if relieved.

Immediately, he turned his eyes around, and his sight quickly stopped at the back of the car.

There were two self-service car washing machines there. The water pipe in the dummy's hand was connected to one of the machines.

In other words, one was operating and the other was not. The one that was operating had a card inserted in the card slot and the LCD screen displayed the "cleaning" icon, while the other was completely black. Qiu Yufei took a deep breath, stepped forward lightly, reached out and poked the operating car washing machine, and the water flow in the spray gun stopped.

The built-in LCD screen also returned to the initial screen. On the low-pixel screen, there were several large icons.

"Turn on", "Clean water", "Foam", "Vacuum", and the last one, "Instructions for using the self-service car washing machine".

After a nervous look at the whale blubber man in the bag, Qiu Yufei swallowed and immediately pressed the last one.

The screen went black instantly. Immediately afterwards, white fonts slowly emerged word by word:

Qiu Yufei: "..."

"That is to say, the exit next to it cannot be used, right." Pursing her lips, she whispered, "What would happen if I accidentally went up just now?"

"I don't know." The whale man answered honestly, and after thinking for a while, he said, "But assuming this rule is reliable, then it is estimated that there is a high probability that I

can't come back." The ramp is a one-way street, and you can't get off once you go up. At the same time, you can't get out without driving... Even if you drive, you have to consider how to pay the parking fee.

Rounding it off, as long as you go up, it will definitely be a foul. As for what will happen after the foul, it's hard to say.

Qiu Yufei thought so too, and her eyes turned to the machine in front of her again. Finally, she realized it belatedly and felt a little relieved and scared in her heart.

Her eyes moved slightly downward, and she couldn't help but scan the membership card inserted in the machine in front of her, and her fingers moved slightly.

After a moment of silence, she still forced herself to look away, and instead took out a mobile phone from her bag and started shooting at the LCD screen.

"???" The blubber man curiously poked his head out of the bag, "Kid, what are you doing again?"

"Saving." Qiu Yufei said as a matter of course, and pressed the shutter button, bringing the taken photos in front of her, but her eyes were startled again.

Almost at the same time, the blubber man's hesitant voice suddenly sounded at the edge of the bag.

It said, kid, the thing that just followed behind, it sprained its leg, right?

"?" Qiu Yufei's attention was still on the taken photos, and she responded subconsciously, "What?" "

The thing that just followed you." The blubber man said softly, his body gradually sank, and his tone gradually became subtle, "I remember its footsteps, it sounded heavy and light, heavy and light, right?"

"It sounds like a lame person.

"Isn't that just the same, just like the dummy behind? "

Qiu Yufei: "..."

As if she realized something, she slowly raised her head. She saw her own reflection and the reflection behind her vaguely printed in the glass wall in front of her.

The spray gun had been turned off at this moment. Without the water flow blocking her, Qiu Yufei finally noticed the feet of the dummy behind her.

There was an obvious hole at the left ankle, and the entire left foot was tilted. The center of gravity was on the right foot, which was why it stood a little crooked.

... Blinking, Qiu Yufei suddenly remembered the photo she had just taken.

The text in the photo was clear, but one of them looked completely different from what she had seen before -

[4.6 When you are alone in the parking lot, if you hear the opening and closing of car doors, whistles, or footsteps that are not related to you, please stop immediately.]

- [Because running away is useless.]

——【It has seen you.】

“…”

The feeling of cold hands and feet surged up again, crawling up along the skin like tentacles, making the whole body stiff and unable to move.

As if in response to her thoughts, the mannequin in the reflection also began to move—the face hidden under the brim of the hat slowly raised up, revealing a pair of stiff but malicious eyes, and one hand suddenly raised up—

and stretched out to her neck.

“…”

“…Snap.”

A few minutes later. In the room full of pig faces.

Xu Ming casually put away the folding knife in his hand, and then opened it again, taking the time to talk to the whale blubber man in his mind: "Then what?

"You said Yufei was touched by the cripple... and then what?"

The whale man: "..."

"And then... her leg was broken." It whispered.

Xu Ming: "?"

Whose leg was broken?

"Who else could it be?" The whale man seemed to have finally come to his senses when he said this, and his voice became louder and louder, "It's so scary, he turned around and started beating me! He rushed forward while shouting something like 'Ban Ban Chui'!"

The key point was that he was shouting 'Ban Ban Chui', but the movements of his hands were completely different! He strangled the man's neck with a bag strap and started to beat him randomly. In the process, he accidentally threw out the rule book, so he picked up the rule book and continued to beat him...

"..." Xu Ming guessed the frustrated tone of the whale man, and a bold guess gradually emerged in his heart, "Don't tell me you were in the rule book at that time."

"I just wanted to try to shake him from the inside!" The whale man's tone sounded even more frustrated, "In the end, I was shaken so hard that my brain was almost shaken!"

After beating the girl, she sighed to it and said, "Teacher Haitang, you were right. This thing is really good at hitting people!

Teacher Haitang... Teacher Haitang didn't even have the energy to scold me.

Xu Ming: "..."

Xu Ming: "...So, is everything okay now?"

"Yeah. I came to tell you that I'm safe." The whale man said sullenly, "The legs of the dummy have been pulled out. Now, let alone 1.6 meters or 1.7 meters, even 1.4 meters is gone."

Xu Ming: ...Okay, you are worthy of you, Yufei.

"The kid is being searched now. I'll tell you when I find something." The whale man said, "By the way, when are you coming to pick me up?"

Xu Ming was silent for a moment, lowered his eyes and looked down, and replied in his mind: "Aren't you getting along well with Yufei now?"

And now he feels safe. What is a real villain? You can even use the rule book as a brick to move.

"That's what I said, but I'll still follow your habits." Whale Fat said honestly, "There's not so much fighting."

Compared to Qiu Yufei, Xu Ming, a gentle and literary fighter, is more suitable for it. At least I don't have to worry about my brain being shaken up...

Whale Fat thought self-affirmingly, and obviously forgot about the time when Xu Ming used stockings as a meteor hammer. Xu Ming was too lazy to mention it again, so he just asked about the progress of Qiu Yufei and reminded them to pay attention to the guy who was screaming for people to light the lamp - it must be said that the guy still left some psychological shadows on her. Fortunately, according to what Whale Fat said, they haven't encountered him yet.

Then she waved her hand and drove the blubber man out of her mind.

Because of the distance, the blubber man could only communicate with her at the moment, but he couldn't see what was going on on her side. Qiu Yufei happened to have something to discuss, so she didn't stay any longer. She whimpered reluctantly and disappeared again. Xu Ming

was left alone. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were full of indifference.

She lowered her eyes slightly, looked expressionlessly at the person squatting on the ground with his head in his hands in front of her, leaned over again, and gently tapped the other's protruding nose with her open dick.

"I reiterate that I'm really not a bad person." Xu Ming spoke word by word, his tone was gentle and soft, "As long as you cooperate, everything will be fine."

She squatted down, looking at the pig-faced man squatting on the ground as straight as possible, trying to make her tone sound sincere. The limited light fell on her fingers, making the cartoon brass knuckles on her fingers sparkle. The man

squatting on the ground with his head in his hands paused slightly, and his head suddenly pressed lower. His fat ears drooped down, and Xu Ming's patient voice came from his ears:

"Now, let's all calm down and have a good chat, okay?

"I'll repeat the previous question again, think about it and then answer me-

"Who are you?"
