Chapter 17 Jiang Li
Chapter 17 Jiang Li
Calm down, calm down... Jiang Li said to himself over and over again.

She is not a timid person, or rather, her childhood experiences have made her bold and reckless.

But that doesn't mean she isn't scared.

She clearly remembered that after she and Li Yuejun disguised Ding Lei's office to look like it had been robbed, they went to the toilet at the end of the sixth floor.

However...when she came out of the bathroom, she was shocked to find that "herself" was actually standing next to Li Yuejun!
A strong sense of fear suddenly surged from all directions, almost suffocating her.

Jiang Li covered his mouth and watched Li Yuejun and "Jiang Li" enter the elevator.

What should I do...what should I do?
That's clearly a ghost! What happened to Li Yuejun? Did the ghost attack her?
what do I do……

Jiang Li fell into extreme pain and struggle.

She covered her head and sat dejectedly in the corner, feeling extremely conflicted.

"Damn it!"

Jiang Li clenched his fist and punched the wall hard, then made a decision.

Remind them... they must be reminded!
Eleven o'clock is the time for everyone to gather. If we fail to realize that "Jiang Li" is an impostor, everyone may die!
Even if... they can't tell the truth from the false, it's enough to just have doubts...

Thinking of this, Jiang Li hardened his heart, glanced at the dark emergency passage, turned around and walked in.

Everything was just as she expected.

But it was also beyond her expectations.

Jiang Li did arouse everyone's fear and suspicion, but Jiang Li himself was also under great threat!

When "Jiang Li" turned his head along with everyone else to look at himself at the emergency exit, only Jiang Li could see the undisguised malice...

She was so frightened that she turned and ran away.

"I have done everything I can..." Jiang Li leaned against the wall of the stairs on the fourth floor, with an air of despair in the air.

At this moment, a scream was suddenly heard!
"What...what's going on! Help! Is there anyone who can hear me? Help me!"

Zhang Xiaohong's sharp female voice pierced through the wall somewhere on the first floor and reached Jiang Li's ears.

"Whose voice is that?"

The fear and despair conveyed in the screams were simply horrifying, and Jiang Li's first reaction was - go! Leave the fourth floor area quickly!

It’s not because of anything else, but... it seems that only I can hear this voice!

Logically speaking, if someone heard such a scream, it would definitely cause a commotion in the hotel, but the fact was that everything was calm, as if nothing had happened.

Jiang Li gritted his teeth and was about to leave.

But suddenly I heard a sound.

“Tap-tap-tap-tap-”

Slow and rhythmic footsteps sounded on the stairs downstairs, becoming clearer and clearer!

Jiang Li's pupils constricted and goose bumps appeared all over his body.

It's coming, it's coming to me!
Jiang Li didn't delay any longer. Originally, she wanted to conserve her energy and didn't want to exercise too vigorously.

But now, she can no longer care about so much.

The sound of footsteps getting closer and closer seemed like a death knell, and a feeling that a "ghost" was about to approach me arose in my mind.

This hair-raising feeling of fear disrupted all of Jiang Li's plans. When she stopped, she was already out of breath and collapsed against the wall.

Already reached the sixth floor and back here.

The structure of this hotel is that there are stairs at the left end and two elevators at the right end.

They are connected by a long and narrow corridor.

At this time, Jiang Li was next to the elevator on the sixth floor.

She had just used all her strength to rush from the stairs across the corridor to the elevator.

"…Should we…get rid of it?"

Jiang Li stared at the staircase at the end of the corridor. The dark place seemed like the exit of hell, which made people feel scared.

Fortunately... the "ghost" didn't seem to follow. Jiang Li finally breathed a sigh of relief...

However, at this moment, the elevator that Jiang Li was leaning against suddenly rang!
"Ding--"

The crisp ringing of the bell made Jiang Li tremble all over. She looked up and saw that it was the fifth floor!

Someone took the elevator to the fifth floor!
Who is “he”? Is “he” a human?

Bizarre thoughts emerged in Jiang Li's mind, and she was increasingly unable to calm herself down.

No... This can't go on like this...

Hide, find a place to hide!

Jiang Li pounded her head and forced herself to calm down. She looked around, looking for a possible hiding place.

Finally...she saw a storage room.

Jiang Li went in without hesitation, ignoring the musty smell inside, closed the door, and hid among a pile of cleaning tools.

In fact, this storage room is where cleaning tools are stored. It is a tiny hole dug in the corner of the wall. It is dark, low and narrow, and it is barely enough to accommodate one person. Fortunately, Jiang Li is not tall and not bloated.

Human will to survive is terrifying, and this is the case with Jiang Li’s current situation.

Although she was extremely frightened, she managed to control her breathing and body and did not make any unnecessary noise.

The darkness in the storage room was gnawing at Jiang Li's heart like tiny ants.

Staying here for one more minute seems like torture.

One minute……

three minutes……

five minutes……

Jiang Li felt his pulse and silently counted the approximate time.

Although she was so nervous at the moment that her pulse was unreliable, this was still a way of distracting her attention, allowing her to divert some of her fear.

At this moment, the elevator not far away rang!

"Ding……"

The people on the fifth floor are coming up!
How to do?
How to do?
what should I do?
Jiang Li covered his mouth tightly, his eyes wide open.

The door of the storage room could not be completely closed, and there was still a slight gap through which a little light leaked in.

No one knows I'm here... Maybe they think I'm a "ghost"?
Jiang Li's mind began to become confused and distorted, and she even began to hate herself for making the decision to remind everyone.

If it weren't for my self-conceited greatness, I might not have been targeted by the "ghost"...

Now, all Jiang Li could do was pray that "he" would not come here and open the storage room.

"Don't... don't open the door... please, don't open the door..."

Jiang Li's silent recitation came to an abrupt halt, and his eyes widened abnormally with fear.

Because, footsteps were heard coming from the elevator.

"Ta, ta, ta..."

Getting closer and closer, “he” is approaching here!

What should I do? Damn it, what should I do!
A strong sense of fear surged in Jiang Li's heart. He covered his mouth with his hands, tears flowing out uncontrollably. Despair filled every corner of his heart!
"Tap, tap."

The footsteps stopped.

Jiang Li saw a blurry black figure through the crack in the door.

"He" seemed to be looking at him viciously.

it's over...

The tension in Jiang Li's heart collapsed quietly, and his eyes were distracted and desperate...
