Chapter 13: The Morgue
Dong Xie and Lian Zixin's faces instantly turned pale when they heard the coughing sounds coming from the ward behind them! For Lian Zixin, who was carrying out the Blood Character Instruction for the first time, he couldn't stop his knees from shaking and his heart from beating violently and furiously! Dong Xie took hold of Lian Zixin and made a "shh" gesture, signaling him to keep quiet, then he lowered his voice and pulled Lian Zixin towards the back of the corridor. Coughing sound, at this time, still intermittent continued, every cough, as if hit in the heart of the two people. In this dark environment, it was really creepy. Lian Zixin's teeth were even clenched in death, and both of his legs began to stiffen. If the evil spirits rushed out from inside, there wasn't even a place to hide in this narrow corridor. As for Dong Xie, he was much calmer. Experience had shown that when an evil spirit really wanted to kill, it usually wouldn't even give them a warning first, often suddenly burrowing out where they couldn't notice and then taking their lives. The two of them, began to continuously retreat. Soon, they gradually retreated to the end of the corridor. By this time, the coughing sounds had already sounded so faint that it was basically inaudible standing here. Suddenly, Dong Qi noticed that at the end of the corridor, and then turned toward the right, it was the entrance to the …… morgue! At this time, the door of the morgue, basically greatly open, just short of saying to the residents, quickly come in! In? Or not go in? Dong Xie felt that this was a more complicated issue than survival or destruction. Going in was likely to face an untimely death, but it was also highly likely to find a second key, or other clues to a way of life. Without a doubt, if they didn't find the key and couldn't escape the hospital in time, then they would definitely die as well! There was no doubt about that! Lian Zixin's face also became quite ugly at this time, and he was obviously thinking about the same thing. After all, it was only the first time he had executed the Blood Character, and to have him enter the morgue under such an atmosphere, it was also just a little too terrifying. Going in, wouldn't he be looking for death? But just at this moment, from the doorway of the morgue, a silhouette suddenly flashed out! "Dong Xie, Lian Zixin?" Dong Xie immediately turned his head to look! That person was, indeed, none other than Han Lei! The most capable general under Qin Ziyuan! This man, Han Lei, was renowned for his boldness, and now, it seemed that he was truly living up to his name! Even Dong Xie, to enter inside this morgue, is also trembling with fear! And then, another person walked out behind Han Lei, and it was Chang Yong! Dong Xie then walked up and looked at Han Lei and Chang Yong at the entrance to the morgue and asked, ''Did you guys get anything in there? Wasn't your challenge to find the key as well?" "Well, that's right, what we need to look for are two keys." "Two?" Lian Zixin froze, "So were you guys on this floor to begin with?" "No, it's the floor further up. It's locked down below and you can't get down, so you can only look for the key here." Lian Zixin thought for a moment and then asked, "Then did you guys meet Yun Nai and the others?" The only residents who hadn't converged yet were Yun Nai, Li Chong, and Ji Yu. Han Lei replied, "This …… hasn't happened yet. Don't know where they are either." It seemed that because these people were originally down there, there was one less key to look for. Lian Zixin, on the other hand, nervously asked, "Have you found anything here yet?" "We also just came in not long ago, and we haven't found anything yet. Then, we heard your voices." Dong Qi walked up and lowered his voice to Han Lei, "Did you guys hear …… coughing?" "Didn't hear …… what?" Han Lei had been following Qin Ziyuan around, so naturally he wouldn't be a fool. At this time, when he heard Dong Qi say this, his face turned white. "You …… you mean?" "Is there another exit here?" "Well …… inside the morgue, there's another door, I'm not sure if I can get out ……" Hearing these words, Dong Xie and Lian Zixin both realized that whether they wanted to or not, the only way to get out now was to rely on entering the morgue and passing through that door inside. Other than that, there was no other way out. "It's just! Put up a fight!" To be honest, if they were to walk along this straight corridor and just walk to the door of the ward where the coughing came out, they would never have the guts to do so. After walking into the morgue, the inside immediately became incredibly dark, only from the turbid light of the doorway, barely able to see around a body covered with a white cloth lying corpse. The words sprayed on the walls by the spray paint in the corridor earlier, they naturally remembered clearly. Then, it was also not difficult at all to speculate on what would be encountered here. "Be careful …… Where is that door?" "Toward here." Han Lei and Chang Yong led the way in front, while Dong Xie and Lian Zixin followed behind. Passing through the rows and rows of corpses under the white cloth was also creepy. They could wake up at any time. And that close, once a certain corpse really woke up, then at least one to two of the residents present would be attenuated. And among them, Lian Zixin, who was executing the Bloodletter for the first time, felt the most terror. "Wait!" But just then, Dong Xie thought of something and said, "Why don't we check here first. Maybe here, there are clues related to the path to life as well. Or, look for the second key." "A small key to look for in a place that big? That's not very realistic." Han Lei didn't quite approve of Dong Qi's suggestion, "The Blood Character isn't going to give us such a difficult challenge, right?" "But, I'm afraid there are clues to the path of life." Looking at this fast white cloth covered corpse around them, they already felt creeped out, now, are they still going to check them out one by one? Most people simply didn't have the guts! Even if they knew that there was a possibility of checking out the clues to the path of life by doing so! "Well …… this …… is too dangerous, right?" Chang Yong, on the other hand, waved his hand repeatedly, "It's better to find a way to leave this morgue first!" It was obvious that if it wasn't for Han Lei, Chang Yong wouldn't have dared to enter this morgue. However, Dong Xie was the one who always believed that finding clues to a way of life was the first priority. Without finding the clues, when the evil spirits really came to kill the residents, the residents would have no hope of survival. At this stage, they had to take advantage of the time when the apartment was restricting the movements of the evil spirits for them to find the hope of a way out as soon as possible! If they were afraid of dying now, could they not die? When the Evil Spirits really start killing people, there will be no use crying and despairing! Han Lei did admire this perseverance of Dong Xie, and after thinking about it, he said, "It's too dark here, the place is narrow, and it's ultimately too dangerous. Even if we have to look for it, we can't take too long, safety comes first." "That I know." Making this kind of decision was actually really tough, in a Bloodletter mission, the ones who could survive were actually not necessarily the smartest occupants, but often the ones who made the fewest mistakes. After all, this wasn't playing a game where you could start over if you died, the margin for error was just too low, and sometimes a wrong decision meant losing one's life! "Wait!" Chang Yong suddenly raised a doubt at this time, "We shouldn't be, should we lift the white cloth of these bodies one by one, right? No, it can't be like that, right?" Hearing Chang Yong's words, the faces of the others also became quite ugly. If they really wanted to do that, that would be a little too terrifying, right? They looked at each other in dismay, and not a single one of them dared to do so. "That …… how about ……" Chang Yong rubbed his hands and said, "I, I have a suggestion, how about, everyone split into groups, one group of people look for clues here , another group of people first …… first go to the front to explore the road?" Chang Yong that expression, fools can guess what he is thinking. "I …… I mean …… everyone can guess the fist ah!" Chang Yong thought about it, and could only offer this big killer: "Well, two people are here to find clues, and the other two people will go …… to explore the road first ……" Said to the back, "explore the road" word is basically low almost and mosquito voice almost. "Find it together." Han Lei, as Qin Ziyuan's more relied upon right hand man, his words carry a lot of weight: "It's settled." Chang Yong and Dong Xie were both considered to be on Qin Ziyuan's side, and once he gave the word, both of them naturally wouldn't say anything more. One must know that back then, Han Lei was the ruthless man who personally slit the throat of an addicted resident with a knife! "Eh?" But right at this moment, Han Lei looked towards the side, his gaze somewhat startled. "What's wrong?" Dong Qi asked in disbelief. Han Lei pointed to the corner of the wall in front of him. "I remember there was …… no remains of that body there before ah?"
