The cement floor had no weeds, but it still appeared desolate and bleak.
Suddenly, I noticed something unusual.
In fact, there were some torn pieces of cloth hanging on the iron thorn net above the main gate, and even……they were hooked with a pair of shoes!
The shoe was a leather shoe, and the cloth pieces were like the pants of a suit, with the leg torn off.
As I saw the shoe, the wind suddenly picked up!
A chilling feeling suddenly surged up.
The slight slap sound, dense and constant.
The visibility suddenly improved significantly, with the light source coming from behind.
Without realizing it, I stopped and turned back to look.
The one in front of me was doing the same movement.
The abandoned hospital building was lighting up floor by floor.
Every window was emitting a yellow light from tungsten filament bulbs.
It was as if the itself silent building was about to wake up……
In front of the building, there is also a large area, which can be considered as an activity playground.
On both sides of the playground, there are also street lamps. At this time, the street lamp under the lampshade is lit up.
It seemed that I and the leader were alone, just the two of us.
But I felt like there were people under the streetlight, people on the playground, and even people in those windows of the hospital, countingless people who were watching us.
A strong sense of panic suddenly arose.
That sliver of soul gave me such a memory.
When I wanted to leave, I felt like "people" were everywhere, and then Wei Youming appeared.
Such an array, even if Wei Youming just woke up, he must wake up!
"Quickly, go!" the leader whispered urgently.
I didn't dare to look any longer, and we walked faster towards the gate.
It took three to two minutes to walk to the front of the iron gate. The cold iron bars were at least as thick as an infant's forearm, and the gaps were even smaller, allowing people to stretch out their arms at most.
The lock was large, yet it was incredibly new, without any rust.
I took out the copper piece to pick the lock and opened it quickly.
The leader looked up and stared at the leather shoe hanging on the wire thorn net, muttering something on his lips, speaking to himself without realizing it.
Later, he directly climbed up the iron door, aiming for that pair of shoes.
The leader's body was light and fluffy, and such a climb was impossible to defeat a sliver of soul.
The lock was difficult to open.
I tried a few times without moving it, and beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.
My peripheral vision saw that the leader was already below the wire thorn net, reaching out to grab that pair of shoes!
Then, the leader let go and gently landed on the ground.
"He's here! Show your powers, you're going to have to hurry."
The leader whispered the urgency.
I moved faster, but the lock was too difficult to open...
Tick-tack, tick-tack, the sound of the leather shoe hitting the ground, every one of them felt like stepping on my heart.
I slipped my hand, the lock hole was poked into nothing, and my hand directly hit one of the iron bars, almost flipping over my fingernails.
"Sss..."
Chilling, bone-piercing cold, and the pain was even more heart-wrenching.
The sound of "plip, plip" became heavier.
The leader also seemed anxious, staring intently at the direction of the hospital building.
I couldn't help but take a glance.
Indeed...Wei Youming had come over.
He moved in a swaying motion, as if he had been drinking.
No, this isn't drunkenness. I can vaguely see that he seems to be closing his eyes, and that swaying motion is like someone who is exhausted and drowsily unable to stand up straight.
Sweat was sliding down my cheek, the leather shoe is most likely the key, the leader has already taken it in hand. If I can't open the iron door, I will fail!
Wei Youming was walking very slowly, but slow as he is, he will get closer.
I tried to eliminate the chaotic thoughts and continued to pick the lock!
But at this crucial moment, suddenly, a stick poked through the gap of the iron door!
I had no preparation at all, because outside the door was empty and desolate. Who would have thought that a stick would suddenly be poked in from nowhere!?
The stick head suddenly hit my abdomen, and I groaned softly. Although it wasn't a painful twist, there was still a stinging sensation.
Suddenly, the stick was pulled back.
Beyond the hospital gate that was originally empty, a thick layer of gray mist was added. This mist was truly an opaque hand cannot see five fingers.
"What's going on?" the leader's face turned ashen instantly.
"There is something outside the door..."
My heart sank to the bottom of the valley as well.
For a moment, there was also a strong sense of fear.
What if the thing that had been poked in before wasn't a stick, but a knife?
"You keep picking the lock, I'll watch." The leader grunted again.
I took a deep breath and reached out again, gripping the lock.
Just as I was going to continue picking the lock, suddenly, a stick poked out of the gray mist, only to hit my finger!
The leader was even faster, his hand quickly slipping through the gap in the iron bars, grabbing the stick and yanking it inwards with a sudden pull!
A heavy bang, a person was pulled out from the gray mist and heavily collided with the iron door.
The man was in a state of panic.
But I recognized him instantly.
He was in his late thirties, with a small moustache at the bottom of his chin. His hair was pushed behind his ears by a hat, and one eye was so small that it could only open a slit, while the other eye was dark and shiny, especially sharp!
Aren't you Chen Jun!
The only difference was that the Chen Jun we first met was wearing casual clothes.
At this moment, it was a suit and tie, and the outfit was actually somewhat like Wei Youming!
Chen Jun's face was directly pressed against the iron gate.
The leader's other hand was about to pull Chen Jun's hair.
Chen Jun's eyes suddenly widened, and even the white part of his eyes were fully opened!
Even so, his eyes were still mismatched and incongruous.
Yet, this scene was especially sinister. He opened his mouth and let out a hoarse scream, "They're going to run away!"
The scream seemed to echo through the entire hospital!
The sound of the leather shoe suddenly became louder and louder.
Wei Youming's cold, icy voice followed.
"You, you came out so quickly!"
"I, saw you!"
Chen Jun's face was filled with a strange, sinister grin.
The leader grabbed his hat at once and pulled his hair along with it, pulling him inwards forcefully.
Chen Jun's face, however, was extremely numb, as if he felt no pain.
"Show your powers, you must hurry up!" the leader urgently urged.
I changed two things to pick the lock, using a thin copper bar.
I felt that the lockhole had loosened.
I couldn't help but smile.
I could see from the corner of my eye that Wei Youming was only about 20 meters away from us.
At this distance, either we open the door and run.
Or, both the leader and I would be done for.
"Say, it's slow, it's fast," Chen Jun suddenly revealed a painful expression on his face. Then, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The leader couldn't react in time to dodge!
Even if I wanted to help block it, I couldn't stop it!
In the sound of hiss, the leader's sliver of soul collapsed into countless gray mist.
Two clinks, a pair of leather shoes fell to the ground.
I felt like my heart stopped for a beat!
Chen Jun broke free and quickly reached into the iron bars with his hands, tightly grasping my wrist and twisting it.
His strength was bizarrely large, and I couldn't open the lock anymore.
I exerted equal force, grabbed Chen Jun's wrist with my other hand, and kicked the iron door with my foot, violently pulling Chen Jun inside!
Another heavy bang, Chen Jun's face was pressed against the iron bar, almost deforming.
