Nightmare Attack

Chapter 790 The Key
"What's wrong, Brother Jiang?" Seeing Jiang Cheng looking down at his phone, Huai Yi asked.

"They said the ghost was with them." Jiang Cheng replied.

Hearing this, Huaiyi couldn't help becoming nervous, and said in a very small voice: "Are you kidding, the ghost is clearly following us."

The two of them are now hiding behind a door, not far away is the sound of wet footsteps, not more than 20 meters away from them, across the corridor.

Seemingly thinking of something, Huai Yi was startled, looked at Jiang Cheng and asked, "Brother Jiang, this news can't be fake, is it a ghost?"

"Probably not." Jiang Cheng shook his head, indicated the direction of the footsteps with his eyes, and said in a low voice, "The footsteps are too obvious, how could we not hear them."

"What's the situation?" Huai Yi was a little nervous, "They have a ghost there, and we have one here too. Could it be that ghosts can also clone themselves?"

"This is too nonsense, ha, ha ha" Huai Yi pulled out a smile with some embarrassment, and laughed twice in a very soft voice, as if he also felt that the assumption he made was outrageous.

But soon he stopped laughing, because he saw Jiang Cheng on the opposite side with a serious face.

While waiting, Jiang Cheng also discovered some patterns.

The ghosts behind them seem to be similar to the scorched ghosts in the library, and they can only perceive their approximate positions.

When you get to the neighborhood, you still have to look for people everywhere.

Moreover, this ghost only runs fast when it is chasing people, and it is much slower to find people. The sound of "slapping" footsteps echoed in the corridor, which seemed to make people nervous, but in fact it was not very threatening.

Jiang Cheng told Fatty that there were also ghosts following him. With Wang Qi around, Jiang Cheng was not worried about their safety for the time being.

But if it continues like this, there will definitely be accidents. After all, this time is a mission of saving lives, not a simple mission of survival.

Putting away the phone, Jiang Cheng lowered his voice and said to Huai Yi: "Follow me, let's go out in another way."

The footsteps were still lingering nearby, Huai Yi opened his eyes wide and looked at Jiang Cheng, "Leave now?"

"Yeah." Jiang Cheng patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go to the women's locker room."

Huai Yi swallowed, and it was written all over his face whether he could not go.

Jiang Cheng didn't make it difficult for him, nodded and said: "Why don't you stay, I will go alone, by the way, I need to remind you, since there are two ghosts, after we separate, there may be a second ghost." Three, maybe even the fourth one. If I'm not here, you'll be caught by a ghost, and you must yell loudly." Jiang Cheng patted his face, "This way I know you're dead."

"What are you talking about, Brother Jiang." Huai Yi stood up very cooperatively, and said with a firm gaze, "Let's go now before the ghosts notice us."

Jiang Cheng turned around, "Follow me."

"Got it."

Based on the location of the footsteps, the two chose a suitable timing and slipped away from the corridor.

Just as Jiang Cheng had speculated before, they were spotted by ghosts just after they walked not far away, and their dull footsteps quickened, as if they had knocked over something.

The changing rooms and showers, as well as the swimming pool outside, are all connected, so they don't have to worry about being stuck inside.

Calculating silently, it took about a few minutes before the sound of footsteps found them.

Sighting slowly, Jiang Cheng walked to the locker.

The locker is completely unrecognizable at the moment, and it seems that today's destruction is not the first time.

But there is no correct way, no matter how fierce the damage is, it cannot be opened.

Everything in this world is subject to certain rules.

The paint on the cabinet door has peeled off in large pieces, but the number 18 can still be seen clearly.

Locker No. 18.

What puzzled Jiang Cheng and Huai Yi was that except for the number left on locker No. 18, there was no corresponding number on the other lockers.

As if erased by some force.

Jiang Cheng first touched the locker with his hand, it was cold and cold, just like the texture of metal, and then he put his face close to the locker.

It's very quiet inside, it doesn't look like there are people hiding.

"Brother Jiang." Huai Yi suddenly called out, and the highly nervous Jiang Cheng couldn't help but pause.

But when he turned around, he happened to see Huai Yi pick up something from the ground, it was a little bit bright, and after seeing it clearly, Jiang Cheng frowned.

It turned out to be a key!
The key is very worn and slightly crooked. It is estimated that it will break after being used a few times at most, or with a little force.

Jiang Cheng carefully picked up the key and aimed it at the door jack of the No. 18 cabinet, and found that it was stuck after only going in a little, and he didn't dare to use too much force.

"This key is wrong." Jiang Cheng pulled out the key and said.

Huai Yi nervously listened to the movement nearby. The sound of wet footsteps was getting closer and closer. Hearing the sound, he had already come to the corner at the end of the corridor.

"It's definitely not right. If there is no problem, why is it like this?" Huai Yi pointed at the scarred cabinet door and said.

The footsteps had reached the middle of the corridor, and there was a wall between them.

"Let's go first." Jiang Cheng put away the key and took Huai Yi to leave by another road.

Less than half a minute after they left, a black figure appeared in front of No. 18 cabinet, staring at the scarred cabinet door with resentment in his eyes.

"Ghosts also appeared in their place?" The fat man huddled in a corner with his mobile phone in his hand, his eyes widened.

Just like Huai Yi, he also immediately suspected that the information was tampered with by ghosts.

But Wang Qi took the phone, looked at it, and said, "No."

"Then how do you explain the current situation?" the fat man asked suspiciously.

Wang Qi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't know, but judging from just now, this ghost's ability is very strange, it can even read our hearts, know who it is, and only then will it interfere with our judgment to the greatest extent. , and thus kill us."

After a pause, he added, "And this kind of destruction is not just the physical body, but completely obliterates a person's existence from the level of consciousness."

Hearing this, Fatty seemed to understand, nodded and said, "It's like chasing down Jiang Yanran's personality."

"Yes."

Fatty has a deeper understanding of the methods of the Heart Erosion Demon, which makes him more and more worried about how to deal with it.

Putting one hand on the fat man's shoulder, Wang Qi looked at him seriously, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, with me here, you will be fine."

Hearing that the fat man thought of the safety buckle on his wrist, his heart twitched violently. He grabbed Wang Qi's arm with the other hand, looked into his eyes and begged, "It's not me, it's us. Don't die, we. Let's go out together."

The moment he heard this sentence, Wang Qi seemed to think of something, his eyes dimmed, but only for a moment, he raised his head again, looked at the fat man with a smile, and rubbed his fat arm vigorously, "You are right , we all have to work hard, we must get out of here!"
