Hu Ya’s voice that came out from Tails’ phone was soft and gentle. It shone directly into her heart like the sun.
“Sister Hu Ya, listen to me. The ghost was hiding inside the printer. It dragged me into the hole, one that you’ll be able to see once you move the printer away.”
“Okay, don’t worry, we’ll meet up soon.”
Hearing the sound on the other end, Tails was still worried. “You have to take the left corridor! When I just exited the tunnel, there was the sound of wheels coming from behind me. I didn’t have the time to think and just ran in a random direction. I only dared to call you after the sound disappeared.”
“We’re coming. Just keep moving forward. Don’t be scared. Don’t hang up the phone.” Hu Ya’s voice continued to come from the phone like a kind and patient big sister. With Hu Ya’s company, Tails felt rejuvenated, and she wandered deeper into the darkness.
…
“The phone is still not working.” Ah Nan stood in the middle of the split and looked at the white corridors on both sides. “Which path shall we take?”
This question had bothered him for a long time. The underground morgue was different from other scenarios; this place was like an extremely complicated maze, and they were already lost in it.
“There is no answer. The boss has figured out everything. There is probably something that disturbs the reception here.” Xiao Lee tried to explain it using the scientific way.
“It’s not that. The signal is at its maximum, but there is simply no answer.” Hu Ya put her phone away and moved to stand next to Ah Nan. There was worry in her eyes. “Tails probably dropped her phone when she was trying to run away.”
Hu Ya had stated the most likely scenario, and it was also the explanation she gave herself.
“Then what shall we do next? Which corridor shall we take?” Yang Chen looked at Hu Ya, who used her phone inside the Haunted House, and he moved silently away from her. Now that things had gotten out of hand, he surrendered the position of leader and tried to be as unnoticeable as possible. He looked surreptitiously at the other visitors, and the anxiety in his heart grew. He told himself to be careful as he tried to find this source.
“There are no signs on either corridor, but they are both painted white. Based on the medical students, these are used to transport cadavers—they are roads for the dead—so we’d better be careful.”
After Xiao Lee voiced his opinions, he turned to look at Bai Qiulin. He probably wanted to get Bai Qiulin’s support, but the latter had not been paying him any attention.
