Chapter 9

Unfortunately, although there is not much conscience, it cannot be said that there is none. Ji Jue finally didn't go astray.

Took out his phone for the last time, looking at the empty screen.

Brother Feng still hasn't returned the call.

Not answering the phone, not replying to the text message, it's like he's gone, God knows where he went, he wouldn't have been drunk by his comrades and broken down, right?

Relying on him at critical moments, dropping the chain, are you okay?

Now it seems that the only thing he can rely on is himself.

Finally hesitating, what convinced him was "I'll just take a look", "just take one look", "I'll go back after figuring out what these guys are doing", "if it doesn't work, I'll run".

Ji Jue took a deep breath and turned to leave.

Twenty minutes later, he appeared in front of the nightclub gate again, openly.

Wearing mechanic clothes, wearing a dirty work hat, bought from a second-hand stall in the nearby night market for four hundred yuan, which made Ji Jue almost vomit blood.

The only free thing is the toolbox installed behind the small scooter, which has been carried with him.

Finally, carrying a broken folding ladder borrowed from a hardware store on his shoulder.

What membership card, what Federation currency.

The version ace pass is right here!

When Ji Jue had no money, he often relied on this set to escape tickets. When he was exposed, it couldn't be said that there was none, but most of the time, it was unfavorable.

Just like that, swaggering through the luxury cars, crossing the crowd queuing at the door, he nodded skillfully to the leader in front of the door, and asked vaguely:

"Who called for repairs?"

The leader also seemed to be stunned for a moment, lowered his head and said two sentences to the headset, waiting for the reply from the other end.

The brilliant crystal chandelier in the lobby shone down, falling on Ji Jue's face.

He held his breath, almost unable to hold it.

Until a hurried figure walked out from inside, and when he saw him, he was relieved, but his expression became angry: "Why did you come now? The elevator has been broken for a while... Wait, what are you doing with the ladder?"

"Ah?"

Ji Jue was stunned for a moment, then his mind turned: "Inspection... inspection, maybe there is a problem with the top of the elevator, right?"

The leader nodded: "What about other tools?"

"In the car, there are too many, let's figure out what the problem is before moving them over."

Ji Jue dealt with it vaguely, followed behind him, and finally entered inside, unfortunately, didn't see the hot song and dance, steel pipe dance, and went directly to the staff passage.

Staff came and went along the way, busy, even if they saw someone carrying such a big ladder in, they just looked at it and ignored it.

There were more young ladies wearing less cloth walking by, fragrance lingering, which made Ji Jue a little unable to withstand the test. Instead, the leader who led the way warned, "Don't look around, don't walk around, and don't chat. Some guests are not even something we can afford to offend, be careful of being dragged out from the back door."

"Okay, okay." Ji Jue nodded frantically, followed behind, and finally saw an elevator that had been hung with a maintenance sign.

"Okay, you look at it first, if you need any tools, call me in the tool room in front, don't run around, you know?" He finally warned: "If you encounter some big shots doing shameful things, you can't afford to eat and walk around! See that? The security guard is staring at it!"

Saying that, he pointed to the surveillance on the ceiling opposite the elevator.

"Hey, you guys have a lot of trouble."

Ji Jue shook his head, suddenly slapped his forehead: "Hey, by the way, our company's KPI has been checked strictly recently, some ox and horse roll like dogs, always like to grab other people's orders, you can't find anyone else to grab my work again!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, why do you need so many people to repair the elevator? Call me when it's repaired."

The leader waved his hand impatiently and turned to leave.

Just like that, he blocked the possibility of the legitimate repairman exposing himself.

In the corridor where people came and went from time to time, Ji Jue stared at the elevator alone, and began to pretend to dismantle the panel.

But after dismantling half of it, taking advantage of no one paying attention, he lowered his head, followed the wall, and stretched out his dishonest little hand, directly touching the surveillance camera.

【Brother, busy?】

The indicator light of the surveillance camera naturally flashed, cooperating with him, playing the maintenance screen of just a few seconds, and then, a voice with a big Northeast flavor rang from Ji Jue's brain:

【What are you doing, brother? Our rules are strict here, no time to chat, be careful that someone will come out to see you touching fish later, I'm afraid you'll be beaten.】

Ji Jue asked: 【Do you know what they are doing inside?】

【I don't know!】

The surveillance tone also became unhappy: 【This damn place, there are several sets of surveillance inside and outside, God knows what they are doing inside... These dogs, they have been making things bloody these days, I guess they haven't done anything good... If I had hands, I would have wanted to call the police!】

Saying that, he passed the image seen in the surveillance.

It was all a scene of several people with their heads down carrying huge plastic bags or boxes out of the elevator, bloody things dripping from the bags, and soon dragged away by cleaners, cleaned up.

Ji Jue felt his scalp tingle.

It couldn't be donkey whip bought from the market for guests to stew soup, right? Are the guests so weak? Moreover, how much appetite, eat so much?

Not afraid of exploding.

But in his mind, immediately after, the face of the crazy old ghost appeared, and even the hunger that almost sprayed from his eyes...

The surveillance's words reminded him.

"Right, call the police."

Ji Jue has found so much, it's time for the police to come and wash the ground.

He subconsciously wanted to touch his phone.

But immediately after, he heard the chattering surveillance voice.

【Oh, by the way, it seems that the police and them are in the same group. Several girls who ran out were caught back, and they were beaten so miserably... Don't be harmed by them, brother.】

In the transmitted picture, the supervisor in the private room handed cigarettes to the police, talking and laughing happily, everyone was beaming, without any gaps, close as a family.

In the supervisor's eyes, a familiar red light flickered quietly, like blood flames.

Another one?!

The third one... no, more, the enthusiastic surveillance camera stuffed all the strange scenes seen in these days, among which there were eight or nine people with weird blood color on their bodies!

Ji Jue's heart beat wildly, his eyes went black.

—Holy shit, I accidentally touched the nest of this group of monsters?!

Is it too late to run now?

【Thank you brother, I'm done!】

Ji Jue squatted in front of the panel, followed the elevator's guidance, found the line with poor contact, reconnected it and wrapped it with two circles of electrical tape, done.

The elevator cheered: 【Done, run away quickly, don't be like the last repairman, taken away and don't know where to go.】

"..."

Ji Jue, who was ready to run away after cleaning up, stiffened in place, feeling the internal image transmitted by the elevator: ten minutes ago, another employee wearing a maintenance hat followed people down the elevator, went to a floor not displayed on the elevator panel, the door opened... disappeared.

Never came out again.

It's as if in the noisy and bustling nightclub, there is an invisible black hole hidden, once you accidentally fall into it, you will never see it again.

But what made him stiffen in place was the image that appeared in a flash on the screen, the right hand of that repairman, that familiar scar, made his breathing almost stop completely.

Chilled to the bone.

"Brother Feng..."

Ji Jue stared wide-eyed, standing at the elevator door.

"Eh? Repaired? Repaired, follow me down to eat staff meals..." The leader who came to receive the news pushed his shoulder: "Ask you something, speak, what are you pretending to be dead for."

Ji Jue didn't speak, silently, looking back at him.

The leader frowned, wanting to speak, but saw... the eyes raised by that youth, and the bloodshot eyes spreading in his eyes, so scarlet.

Then, he saw the right hand raised by Ji Jue from the toolbox, and the crowbar grabbed in his right hand.

Towards his forehead.

Smash down!

Boom!

The leader's eyes went black, he fell to the ground, and the last thing he heard was the cold echo.

"Good."

Ji Jue pulled his collar, dragged him into the elevator: "I really want to eat your staff meals..."

The elevator closed, and the corridor returned to emptiness and silence.

Only the elevator went down slowly.

In the short silence, Ji Jue took a deep breath, gripped the crowbar in his hand, thought about it, changed to a screwdriver, and the sharp screwdriver was pressed against the leader's neck. As long as he used a little force, he could poke a hole.

He admitted that he had the idea of gambling, such a rash behavior was stupid and irrational.

But when Ji Jue saw Lu Feng disappear into the underground floor, all reason and thinking seemed to disappear, leaving only the fear and rage he had never imagined.

How did he get here?

Is he okay?

He even said that he bought a new computer and played games together.

Dog thing, never kept his word once!

Lu Ma just came out of the hospital, he ran to this kind of place—what was he thinking in his brain? Why didn't he know how to call and tell him?

As of now, there is no other way.

Suddenly, the only thing Ji Jue could do was to touch the leader's phone, stuff all the images he found into it, upload them, and then set a video to be sent two hours later, and push it to Yacheng News and Viceroy's Voice, although it felt like it didn't have much effect, at least, he wouldn't be silent even if he died.

Then, he lifted the unconscious leader from the ground, blocked him in front, and pressed the screwdriver against his neck.

Raised his head and looked at the stalled elevator.

And the slowly opening elevator door.

From that gap of hair-raising faint light, what emerged was a twisted and hideous face, the moment the elevator door opened...

Pounced towards Ji Jue!

"Holy shit!"

Ji Jue stared wide-eyed, subconsciously raised the screwdriver, wanting to poke it, but the moment he raised his hand, he finally saw clearly, the blood on that hideous face.

And, the bullet hole.

From the forehead to the back of the head, it exploded, like a coconut shell that exploded, red and white sprayed out.

Corpse.

The corpse leaning against the elevator door fell into the elevator, the sound was so crisp.

There are more.

Corpse, corpse, corpse, corpse, corpse.

It's as if, suddenly, he broke into a battlefield, the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke drilled into his nostrils and mucous membranes like substance, accompanied by the viscous smell of blood.

In the huge underground space, it seemed to have turned into a battlefield, and a storm of destruction whistled past.

What was left was only eleven corpses.

And, amidst the scarlet blood color, that lonely standing figure.

Stepping on a figure that was still struggling after being shot through the heart and arm, the axe in his hand raised, aimed at the forehead, and with a snap, slashed down!

Settled the account.

Immediately after, the firearm in the other hand raised, aimed at the open elevator.

Then, like Ji Jue, he was stunned in place...

That is Lu Feng.

"Grass."
