Living body

"Sir is gone too."

Shen Li looked at the broken lock on the ground. The two-finger-thick hard steel was twisted into a twist, and the fracture was torn. I don't know how much effort it takes to create this effect, but the other half of the broken lock is still hanging on the On the doorknob.

"What?" Huang Ji came over, "What happened?"

Shen Li secretly kicked the half-cut lock under the piled luggage and hid it: "27 and Mr. are gone, didn't you notice just now?"

Huang Xie shook his head, and looked into the corridor behind him: "They walked down without saying anything, and we also..."

Before he finished speaking, the piled up luggage was touched, and the top black backpack tumbled down.

Shen Li subconsciously reached out to pick it up, but he didn't expect that the zipper of the bag was not closed, and all the things inside fell out, completely knocking him out——

A short-bladed saber and a heavy spear.

Shen Li had never used a firearm, but he could tell at a glance that it was definitely the real thing, exuding a very dangerous aura.

"This... this is..." Huang Xie was obviously also frightened, looked at Shen Li and said in a low voice, "What kind of project are we coming out this time, we need to use this thing—"

"What are you two doing at the door?" Song Liao couldn't bear to come over after waiting for a long time.

"Nothing." Shen Li stuffed the gun and knife back and zipped it up, acting as if he had never seen anything before, "Mr. and 27 went down first, and Huang Xie was asking if we should also go down and have a look."

Song Liao crossed her chest and cast a sideways glance at Huang Xie: "What should we do if we all go down and lie on the sofa?"

Lu Mi lay on the sofa covered with a blanket and seemed to have fallen asleep, the black shadow remained motionless.

"You stay here and take care of him, I'll go down and have a look first."

"Oh."

"Do not……"

Shen Li glanced at Huang Xie who hesitated to speak: "I'll be back soon."

"Isn't that bag from 27?" Song Liao looked at the black backpack in Shen Li's hand, "He used to carry it on his back and never allow anyone to touch it, why did he throw it to you now?"

Shen Li glanced at the backpack in his hand: "Probably he forgot."

Only Huang Ji, Song Liao and the sleeping Lu Mi were left in the entire living area. There was no electric lighting, and the flashlight on the table was the only light source, but the surroundings seemed darker and deeper.

Song Liao and Huang Xie felt that the surrounding temperature began to drop after a while, even sitting on the sofa wrapped in a blanket couldn't resist the bursts of cold.

"Huang Xie." Song Liao shook the flashlight and shone on the blocked elevator door, "Should we remove the thing blocking the elevator door, and if there is a call later, we can go straight down."

Huang Ji hesitated for a while: "There is probably some reason why they blocked it, let's not move it for now..."

"Is there any reason, you are really so obedient and foolishly waiting here?"

In fact, Huang Xie was as anxious as Song Liao to find someone in the research institute. When he saw that he was really going to move the table and chairs, he hesitated for a while before going up to help.

Those tables and chairs looked loose, but they were heavy because they were made of metal. It took a lot of effort for the two of them to move them away, revealing the white elevator doors.

"Okay, now we just wait for the electricity to come." Song Liao smiled and reached out to pat the elevator door.

The elevator shaft connected all the floors, and the dull vibrating sound from the metal door was transmitted through the empty elevator shaft.

"It's a terrible sound..."

Song Liaogan laughed twice, but before he finished speaking, a shadow suddenly came towards him from the darkness——

"what--"

Huang Ji took the flashlight and followed the direction where Song Liao was screaming, and saw a strange seabird, its feathers were black and bright like water and oil, as if it was contaminated with some kind of liquid, and its sharp claws stepped on the stainless steel. There was a sharp and soft sound on the table.

Seeing the culprit who frightened her clearly, Song Liao suddenly became angry, and casually picked up the sundries on the side and threw them at the seabird: "Where did the ghost come out, it's so scary——"

The flying sundries hit the table and fell to the ground. The seabird flapped its wings twice and fell back to its original position, making a piercing cry. It looked straight at the two of them, but carnivores appeared in their eyes General sharp cold light.

The seabird looked at them for a while, then turned its head and flew into the darkness in the distance. Obviously it didn't like to stay in bright places, but what was amazing was that apart from the slight fluttering sound when it landed, it didn't fly into the distance. The seemingly heavy and sticky black wings are as quiet as a killer.

Huang Xie took a look and then turned around: "It's strange, isn't the bird's feathers unable to fly when they touch the liquid?" He lowered his head and sniffed the bird feathers that Song Liao had knocked off, and was immediately smoked. I had to cover my nose, "...this is where the drill got stuck...it stinks like a chemical weapon..."

Song Liao showed an even more unbearable disgust expression, as if she was afraid that she would also be contaminated by that stench, and wiped the clean clothes on her body vigorously.

Suddenly, there was a series of "giggling" sounds behind him.

"Lu Mi? Lu Mi..."

"What's up with him?"

The commotion between the two of them before was not small, but Lu Mi kept silent and pretended that he was asleep. Only now did he realize that the burn sore had worsened and he fell into a semi-comatose state.

"He has a low fever..." Huang Ji's face became ugly, "We don't have any medicine."

"What should I do? Why don't you cover him with something more?" Song Liao said, getting up and looking for things like blankets

"He's still sweating." Huang Xie said, helping Lu Mi adjust his posture, and wiped his forehead.

However, the comatose Lu Mi didn't feel any better because of this, his face was terribly pale, his lips were blue from blood loss or cold, his face was sweating, his whole body was curled up into a ball and his teeth were chattering and shaking.

"He can't get over it like this." Huang Xie said, standing up, "We must find a medicine that can be used for him."

"Hey, Huang Ji, you don't want to leave me and him here, do you?"

"I... didn't mean that."

The best thing to do in this powerless institute is for everyone to stay together.

Shen Li hadn't told them about the man freezing to death in the snow before, and now it seemed that it would undoubtedly only aggravate everyone's negative emotions.

"If it really doesn't work..."

Song Liao hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly heard a soft sound.

With a stab in front of the eyes, the white light suddenly lit up to illuminate the entire empty area. The two people who had adapted to the darkness closed their eyes tightly, and opened them slowly after a while.

"The power is restored!"

The machinery that had been stopped started to work again and made a slight sound.

Huang Ji and Song Liao stood at the elevator entrance, looking at the bright interior with surprise on their faces.

At the same time, the elevator behind made a crisp "ding" sound, and the metal door slowly opened to both sides——
