Chapter 290 Simple

Thirteenth floor...

Do you want to press this button?
Feng Xiuxue and Gu Pingsheng were thinking.

After a moment, they both made the same decision not to press.

"Let's leave it at that for now. Since the situation isn't getting any worse, let's just maintain the status quo."

Feng Xiuxue spoke as she carefully observed every corner of the elevator.

"Ah."

Gu Pingsheng nodded, but he was thinking about something else in his mind.

"Miss Feng, do you feel that this is a bit strange?"

Gu Pingsheng asked.

Feng Xiuxue looked at him with a little confusion. The situation was so dangerous right now, how could he still have time to feel strange about other things?
But Gu Pingsheng said: "If there have always been evil spirits in this apartment, then these ghosts should have attacked humans before we came. In front of ghosts, humans have almost no resistance, so a large number of people will disappear in this apartment. Once this number is huge, public opinion will be impossible to suppress, but... this apartment seems to have never had any problems?"

Gu Pingsheng continued, "Moreover, we all encountered virtual events in reality a few days ago. This seems to be a phenomenon that some strange things are invading reality. However, they don't seem to be interested in ordinary humans. At present, the whole world is as calm as before, and no reports of virtual events have been heard. I wonder...are we the only ones they hunt?"

Feng Xiuxue looked at Gu Pingsheng in surprise, neither nodding nor denying.

She knew far more than Gu Pingsheng did. In fact, she knew many surprising facts, thanks to her experience and... her key.

"Don't worry about that. Think about how to get out of this predicament now."

Feng Xiuxue felt as if her heart was being pinched by a hand, and she felt uncomfortable.

She has mild claustrophobia, and although the symptoms are not serious, they greatly affect her condition.

At this moment, Gu Pingsheng suddenly picked up his mobile phone and dialed the emergency number in the elevator.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Hello, we are stuck in the elevator..."

"Yes, it's the elevator that's temporarily out of service."

"……sorry to bother you."

Gu Pingsheng hung up the phone and said, "It's okay, the staff will be here soon."

"So simple?"

Feng Xiuxue wanted to laugh. He wouldn't think that the illusion was so simple, right?

If you can’t open it from the inside, can you open it from the outside?
"Ah."

Gu Pingsheng seemed to see what Feng Xiuxue was thinking and explained, "This ghost is not too scary."

Feng Xiuxue stared at him, wanting to see how he came to this conclusion.

Gu Pingsheng adjusted his glasses. “Of course, if we really pressed any button and reached the thirteenth floor, it would become very scary.”

He smiled and continued, "When you were pushed into the elevator just now, I saw its hand with my own eyes. Its hand was already on your shoulder. It is obvious that it is next to us."

As he spoke, Gu Pingsheng looked around thoughtfully.

"It's impossible for a two-person elevator to be overloaded. Apart from a malfunction, it can only mean... there's something else here."

"listen."

Gu Pingsheng closed his eyes slightly and listened carefully.

Following his example, Feng Xiuxue closed her eyes half-believing and half-doubting.

"call……"

It was very quiet in the elevator, so quiet that you could even hear the sound of breathing.

wrong……

There is one more breathing sound!

Feng Xiuxue suddenly turned her head and looked at the place where the breathing sound came from. There was no one there! She felt her body stiffen a little.

There was also a ghost in the elevator, and... maybe it was looking at them. Feng Xiuxue's heart beat faster just thinking about it.

Gu Pingsheng looked normal.

The first time he encountered a similar fantasy event in reality was in the hospital where he worked. There was only five floors, but he somehow ended up on the sixth floor.

That time... he witnessed true horror.

That sixth floor is basically a world for the dead!
Therefore, when Gu Pingsheng discovered that there was a dispute between the 26th and 25th floors of the building, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​going upstairs.

He was very suspicious that both the 13th floor and the 26th floor were another world... the kind of world you could never return from once you went there.

However, what made him decide to stay in the elevator and think of a solution was something else.

"It can touch your shoulder and push you into the elevator. It can become invisible and seal the elevator. It can change all the buttons. It can cause so many illusory phenomena. Why doesn't it just kill us directly?"

Gu Pingsheng said.

Then he looked at a corner of the elevator.

“I think it’s because it can’t be done.”

"Perhaps this evil spirit can only start killing when the elevator takes us to its floor."

"It can change all the buttons, but we are the only ones who can press them. Fortunately, although the emergency button has been changed by it, the emergency number has not changed, and the signal has not been blocked. We just need to wait for rescue outside."

Gu Pingsheng spoke very calmly, and he was even trying to feel for the exact location of the evil spirit.

Feng Xiuxue couldn't help but find it hard to believe it.

Really... is it that simple?
But after changing her mind, she discovered the real horror.

This is a dead end... Just press any button in the elevator and the entire elevator will start and reach that terrifying floor.

So, as long as any button was pressed, both she and Gu Pingsheng would surely die.

There is simply no room for maneuver and no margin for error.

A sense of fear creeps in...

At this moment, the elevator door was suddenly knocked.

"Is there anyone in there?"

The moment the elevator door was knocked, both of them immediately felt that the strange atmosphere in the elevator suddenly disappeared.

Gu Pingsheng immediately responded: "Yes!"

The staff outside shouted, "Don't worry! We'll take care of it right away!"

The sound can be transmitted!
Both Feng Xiuxue and Gu Pingsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The illusion disappeared.

……

Bai Yanliang carefully collected the key from Xu Zhifei's father and said, "Who do you think the person who entered your house is?"

Xu Zhifei shook his head slightly, "I have no idea."

Bai Yanliang raised his eyebrows, "Who knows your address?"

Xu Zhifei looked at him and said, "It's not difficult for someone to find out. It's meaningless if anyone knows."

This is true.

Bai Yan thought to himself that if the people who came were from Anyuan, with their elusive methods, it would be absolutely easy for them to find Xu Zhifei's address.

But if that's the case, why did He Yige launch the attack by the river? Or is He Yige not from Anyuan? Or is the person who broke into Xu Zhifei's house not from Anyuan?
When Bai Yanliang was thinking, Xu Zhifei suddenly remembered something and looked at him straight.

"you."
