Horror Game: Cthulhu Fairy Tales

Chapter 76: Sophistry Building (14)

Huang Xiang rushed to the elevator hall and saw that the elevator was already moving upwards. He could only sigh and wait in the elevator hall.

For some reason, the man who was waiting always felt that there was a cold and gloomy aura surrounding him.

He bravely shone the flashlight around but didn't see anything unusual.

"Maybe it's my illusion..."

The yellow-haired man muttered these words and continued to stare at the elevator and wait.

As Xie Yueye walked out of the elevator, he saw the orange cat.

This time, with the help of the light, Xie Yueye could finally see the leopard print on the little orange cat's body.

The orange cat, who was about to rush up to say hello and ask for touch, smelled the rotten smell, and the light in his eyes dimmed a lot.

"I will continue to burn him today, don't worry."

Facing the cat in front of him, the man's tone was extremely gentle. He never knew that he liked these little lives so much.

"Meow-"

The orange cat called softly, then walked around Xie Yueye with its tail raised, and then walked towards the door of the elevator hall.

The orange cat walked to the door and looked back at Xie Yueye, as if asking, why haven't you caught up yet.

Xie Yueye took a step and caught up with the orange cat in front.

Looking at the orange cat leading the way, Xie Yueye discovered that the cat was not going to his house, but going in another direction.

When he passed by the door, he was stunned for a moment, then followed it. He believed in this orange cat.

Soon the orange cat brought him to another wall.

The corridor that appeared in front of Xie Yueye was similar in structure to the storage room at the other end, but at the end was a wall.

The little orange cat walked to the wall at the end and looked back at the long-haired man.

Xie Yueye paused for a moment, then followed.

"Where are you taking me?"

Walking to the wall and standing still, Xie Yueye asked the orange cat who was looking up at him. He saw a sad emotion in the beautiful yellow cat's eyes.

"Meow~"

The orange cat stretched out a paw and waved it towards Xie Yueye.

The man saw the cat's action and realized that it was a signal for him to squat down.

Xie Yueye slowly squatted down and handed the cloth bag to the orange cat in front of him.

"You say it, I do it."

The orange cat's eyes slowly turned into vertical pupils, and then it stared blankly at Xie Yueye.

Xie Yueye also understood that the time had come...

Huang Xiang, who was waiting downstairs, felt the air getting colder and colder, but the man did not return yet.

"Thank you, brother, you are so slow..."

The soft complaints seemed particularly loud on the silent floor.

Suddenly Huang Xiang heard a regular sound of footsteps.

“Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-”

The sound of footsteps on the ground echoed throughout the entire floor.

Huang Xiang felt the chill becoming more and more obvious at this time, and what frightened him was that the footsteps seemed to be getting closer and closer to him.

During the few days they were wandering around, apart from the roaming security guards in black uniforms, they only met the girl who looked like Lin Yu on the first floor, and no NPCs or players had ever appeared in the other rooms.

Huang Xiang had always thought that there were only two of them in the entire building, but he did not expect to hear such footsteps.

The yellow-haired man estimated the time and felt that Xie Yueye had been upstairs for an hour, but the elevator's floor indicator light did not change at all, indicating that the man was probably delayed on the 9th floor for some reason.

Huang Xiangyou looked at the chain of the emergency exit, wondering whether to take action or escape.

The footsteps were getting closer, and the yellow-haired man felt more and more fearful.

He trembled slightly, but the corners of his mouth began to twitch into a smile.

The man had turned off the flashlight in his hand and put it in his trouser pocket, while he leaned against the elevator button, his eyes fixed on the direction of the elevator hall entrance.

"clatter--"

"clatter--"

"clatter--"

After a few footsteps, Huang Xiang was very sure that the thing was in the corner of the wall at the elevator hall entrance.

A big knife also appeared in the yellow-haired man's hand and he held it tightly.

At this moment, the excitement in Huang Xiang's heart overcame his fear. The corners of his mouth curled up and a crazy smile appeared on his face.

Just when he thought the battle he was looking forward to was about to begin, he was interrupted by a prompt sound. 】

"Ding--"

The sound of the elevator door opening was heard, and Xie Yueye walked out of the shiny wooden elevator.

The long-haired man looked at Huang Xiang, who was standing by the elevator with a big knife in his hand. His eyebrows slightly raised, and he asked softly, "What happened?"

He knew that the yellow-haired man was a coward and would only reveal his weapon when he was forced into a corner.

Huang Xiang stared at Xie Yueye with wide eyes, and the expression on his face returned to its usual calmness.

"Ah I……"

The big knife in his hand disappeared. The man scratched the back of his head, then pursed his lips, thinking about how to explain the current situation to Xie Yueye.

"flashlight……"

The yellow-haired man subconsciously took out a flashlight because of what the other party said, and shone it towards the entrance of the elevator hall in front of him.

Xie Yueye slowly walked into the corridor towards the light and looked around.

"What did you just encounter?"

Huang Xiang also walked up to the man and shone the flashlight around, but saw nothing.

"I... I just heard footsteps, and then..."

The yellow-haired man was a little puzzled. The footsteps he heard just now were clearly approaching him, but how come there was nothing when he walked into the corridor?

"Maybe I'm hallucinating..."

Because he didn't see any figure in the corridor, Huang Xiang could only think that he was hallucinating.

"No, no..."

Xie Yueye looked at the floor of the corridor on one side and was sure that Huang Xiang must have encountered something.

"look by youself."

The flashlight in Huang Xiang's hand shone in the direction of Xie Yueye's finger, and the yellow-haired man's eyes widened instantly.

At some point, blood-stained footprints appeared on the ground, and the most recent footprint had obviously stepped on the edge of the elevator hall.

“This…this…what is this!?”

The man's voice was shaking uncontrollably. The fear in his heart was infinitely magnified at this moment. He could hardly hold the flashlight in his hand.

Xie Yueye gently took the flashlight from Huang Xiang's hand, then squatted down, knelt on one knee, and checked the situation on the ground.

"really……"

These footprints obviously appeared just now, and even felt a little sticky.

"What... As expected..."

Huang Xiang felt like he was going to be scared to death. These strange things appeared so close to him, and he heard nothing except the sound of footsteps.

Xie Yueye looked at the "little golden retriever" beside him who was almost frightened to faint, and sighed softly.

"If you feel scared, you can go back to the house first."

He noticed Huang Xiang's courage, which could sometimes become incredibly timid.

"me……"

The yellow-haired man was almost scared to tears. At this moment, he thought of that boy, the boy with a baby face...

"I'm not going back! I'm with you!"

Thinking of the other person's appearance and that cold look, Huang Xiang felt that he must not embarrass himself, so that next time when that boy appears, he can face him arrogantly...

Looking at Huang Xiang, who was inexplicably full of fighting spirit, Xie Yueye nodded slightly, tacitly approving the other party's decision to stay.

"Don't yell."

After saying this, Xie Yueye walked forward on the bloody footprints.

Huang Xiang swallowed his saliva and pretended to be calm and followed the other person's steps.
