Chapter One Hundred and Ten
The subtle sound was infinitely amplified in the darkness, and the dead corridor quietly lurked in deep shadows.
Jiang Yuanrou's words stopped abruptly.
The two turned their heads at the same time and looked at the dark corridor behind them. There was no light, no sound, and it was like a black hole lying behind them. It made people wonder whether the sound I just heard was real or just my own illusion. .
Mo Yi and Jiang Yuan Rou looked at each other, and also saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
But now there is no turning back.
Now the monster on this floor already knows that the two of them are behind this iron fence, and based on previous experience, she obviously has a certain IQ. Although she seems to have gone far now, is she hiding at the end of the corridor? Peeping in the darkness, the two didn’t know and couldn’t take the risk.
So now can only bite the bullet and move forward.
Mo Yi took a deep breath, and there was a slight tingling pain on his shoulder, which was not severe, but it made his brain extra clear.
He turned on the flashlight in his hand and shone into the dark, impenetrable darkness.
The pale beam of light could not completely penetrate the darkness, but fell loosely in mid-air, printing a small fuzzy outline in front.
Mo Yi made a gesture to Jiang Yuan Rou, Jiang Yuan Rou nodded intently, and the two slowly walked towards the depths of the corridor.
They slowly deepened, and the crowded darkness in the corridor surrounded them, blurring the two of them into silence.
Mo Yi's wrist moved slightly, and the beam of light from the flashlight patrolled in the corridor with his movements, illuminating the surrounding environment——
This is a seemingly ordinary corridor. The doors on both sides of the corridor are tightly closed, and the vague glass windows on the door panels are dark and lifeless.
Mo Yi illuminated the sign above the door with a flashlight, only to see a few vague words under a thin layer of dust.
Staff room.
He walked a few steps closer and tried to push-the door was locked.
Jiang Yuanrou, who was walking by Mo Yi's side, also walked towards the door opposite to this room, pushed it in the same way, and then slowly shook her head.
That one is also locked.
That strange noise never appeared again after it sounded once.
The corridor in front of them was calm and closed, as if the clear sound they had just heard was just a bubble-like dream, which never happened and will never happen again.
Mo Yi's brows were slowly frowned, and his dark eyes were a little confused-if he hadn't remembered clearly, Jiang Yuan and Gentle had turned his head together, otherwise he would really think he had a hallucination just now.
They walked forward quietly in the dark, and soon reached the end of the corridor.
It is exactly the same as the negative third floor. A set of iron railings arranged in a diamond shape, fastened tightly on one side of the wall, has the elevator button logo, and a narrow card slot.
elevator!
Mo Yi breathed a sigh of relief first-it seemed that this was the way to leave this floor.
But shortly afterwards, his face became solemn again.
First, they haven't found the source of the sudden sound. Second, there is a key on this floor that is not used... Mo Yi doesn't think this game is completely irrelevant to him.
He leaned a few minutes closer, carefully observed the elevator buttons and sockets, then took out the employee card he found on the negative third floor from his pocket, and tentatively swiped it in the card slot.
As expected, the elevator did not respond.
Mo Yi was relieved now.
It seems that the props on one floor can only be used on that floor.
So he put the employee card back into his pocket, and then turned his head to look around the environment he was in.
At this moment, Mo Yi heard Jiang Yuan Rou lower aside and said, "Hey."
Mo Yi looked at the sound, and saw that on the side of Jiang Yuanrou's corridor, there was a door that had been opened. She raised her chin at Mo Yi in the vague darkness, and whispered:
"This door can be opened."
Mo Yi swept the sign on the door with the flashlight in his hand, and the light illuminated the words covered in dust:
Archive room.
He pursed his lips slightly, his heart slowly filled with joy in finding a key breakthrough, and he couldn't help but speed up a little.
At this moment, Mo Yi suddenly stepped on something under his feet, and a strange touch came up along the sole of the shoe, and a small sound rang out in the dark.
He couldn't help but froze for a moment, moved away, and looked down at his feet.
saw a vague outline in the dark, and couldn't see what it was.
Mo Yiwan lowered his waist and shone light on the ground with a flashlight-on the dirty and smooth ground, there was a small candy lying quietly.
He was really stunned. After a few seconds, Mo Yi subconsciously reached out and picked up the candy.
It is a fruit candy.
Strawberry flavor.
The pale pink wrapping paper shone brightly under the pale light of the flashlight, reflecting colorful colors.
Mo Yi remembered this brand-Wen Chen often gave him this brand of candy in the real world.
And... although don't really want to admit it.
Mo Yi really likes this brand of strawberry candy.
Mo Yi's fingers tightened unconsciously, and the candy bag in his hand made a small sound in the dark, his brows frowned slightly, and there was a shallow mark on the center of his brows.
His thoughts were like a mess for a while, he couldn't understand his ideas in a mess, and countless questions piled up in his mind.
Was this candy made the sound just now? Why does it appear here? Does it have anything to do with Wen Chen? If so, how did he send it in? why?
Mo Yi's complexion was gloomy, his lips were tight and the color of his lips was a little whitish.
Jiang Yuanrou's voice sounded in the dark, and some vague voices were lowered, and it sounded a little puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Mo Yi was stunned by her voice. He looked up at Jiang Yuan Rou who was standing not far away, put the candy into his pocket casually, and replied. :
"It's nothing."
After that, Mo Yi straightened up and walked into the open door.
As soon as entered the door, a smell of old and rotten book pages rushed over face, with a faint smell of dust, mixed in the dark into a paper smell that should be expected in an archive room.
Mo Yi frowned, shone into the room with a flashlight, and then slowly looked around the room.
The room is small, and inside are metal shelves close to each other. There are traces of rust on the shelves. Stacks of neatly stacked documents are stacked on them. The edges of the documents are yellowed, and they seem to have some age.
He stepped forward and walked inside the door. Jiang Yuan Rou followed behind him. Just as Mo Yi was about to walk towards one of the metal frames, he only felt that the corners of his clothes were pulled.
He turned his head and looked behind him, only to see Jiang Yuan Rou let go of the corner of his clothes with a little embarrassment, and then hesitated:
"Um... I lost my backpack before, so—"
Mo Yi remembered that because Jiang Yuan Rou was caught, everything he brought in from reality was basically lost during that time. He nodded, then pulled out a spare flashlight from his backpack and handed it to Jiang Yuan Rou.
She gave Mo Yi a slight smile: "Thank you."
Mo Yi shook her head, indicating that she didn't mind, and added in a low voice: "It's faster to check separately."
Jiang Yuan Rou nodded, and the two walked in different directions, standing in front of two iron shelves full of documents.
Mo Yi changed the flashlight to the hand that had been dislocated before, and then flipped it casually with the other intact palm.
I don't know how long the above files have been stacked, the upper area is full of thick dust, and a light movement will raise a burst of fine particles, flying under the lamp post of the flashlight.
He coughed a few times and shook his palm a few times to disperse the dust in the air in front of him.
Mo Yi frowned, took out a thin document casually, and then read it carefully.
As the pages turned, Mo Yi's brows became more frowning and tighter, and his movements became faster and faster, until the end he started to turn pages one by one--
He stared heavily at the end of the page, and then gently closed the file folder.
Mo Yi's eyebrows were tightly furrowed--this file folder was empty.
The edges of the paper are yellowed and wrinkled due to time, but every piece of paper is completely blank, without any information.
He put the file folder aside, pulled out another one and flipped through it.
It is still blank.
Mo Yi's heart jumped, and an unknown premonition struck him. He hurriedly threw the file aside, and took out one from the other layer on the shelf--
blank.
He moved hurriedly, speeded up his pace and walked to the other shelf, pulling out a thick or thin file from the top...
All are blank.
Mo Yi frowned suspiciously, the flashlight light made his face look bloodless, his dark eyes swept around the shelf in front of him, and then raised his eyes to look at the other corners of the room.
Jiang Yuan Rou just raised her head from another corner of the room, her face full of bewilderment.
She dropped the document in her hand, then walked towards Mo Yi, stood still not far from him, shook her head slowly, and said in a low voice:
"... are all empty."
Mo Yi couldn't help but fell into deep thought-many copies have settings similar to libraries or archives, which are usually very important ways for players to obtain information, perhaps to prevent excessive amounts of information and reading. The player is dizzy, so a lot of useless information will be blurred.
However, since these copies are all born out of reality, even if they are blurred, they will use methods that conform to the common sense of reality.
For example, in the first and second copies he experienced, the useless books and documents in it were unreadable due to moisture.
And this copy... all the documents in it are directly blank?
This is too strange.
Unless... the blank itself is a clue.
Just as Mo Yi fell deeply into his own thoughts, suddenly, Jiang Yuanrou's somewhat surprised voice sounded a few steps away, clearly reaching his ears:
"...Eh, come here."
Mo Yixunsheng looked in the direction of Jiang Yuanrou, and saw that she used her flashlight to shine towards the inside of the archive room, and a bright beam of light stayed on one of the iron shelves.
He looked along the light.
saw a small iron box on one level of the shelf, with the lid tightly closed, and the silver-white keyhole on it gleaming slightly under the light.
