Chapter 60: Escape
Liu Ke laughed as he lunged at me, my entire heart had sunk and my brain was buzzing.
Just at this time, suddenly the ground shook violently, Liu Ke's face changed, and he stared behind him in death.
"Count yourself lucky, but you won't be able to run away." Liu Ke turned around, grasping my jaw with a fierce smile, frivolously said to me.
I had a vicious chill in my heart, and at this time, the shaking started again.
Liu Ke's eyes fluttered, then suddenly took out another vial and shook it on the tip of my nose, and I fainted.
When I woke up, it was to find myself in a completely dark environment, I was just about to get up, when there was a soft bang, I covered my forehead, and tears fell from the pain. Feeling around with my hands, I realized with a pale face that I was actually placed in a long box. I remembered the coffin that I had first seen in the basement with Chen Yanlu at that time. My entire body sank, and the sticky, chilly aura made it hard for me to breathe.
I anxiously went to feel for the things in my clothes, but none of them were left.
Liu Ke, he is not Liu Ke, but he looks just like Liu Ke, he raped and killed Bai Mei and Liu Yamei, Shen Chong took evidence from their bodies, and then took the blood of Chen Ranlu and Liu Chen to do a lab test, and the result was that Liu Ke was the murderer.
I thought of a terrible speculation, Liu Ke did not know anything at all, all things are this and Liu Ke looks exactly the same, and even genetically identical people to do.
And I just now, also almost suffered his poisonous hand.
Just at this time, suddenly, there was a light ringing in my ears. Then Shen Chong's voice suddenly rang out.
"Homi? Where are you?"
I was so happy that I touched my ear, and that button's walkie-talkie was still there!
I lowered my voice and said, "I don't know, he locked me inside a coffin."
Shen Chong was silent for a moment before his voice sounded, "Who is he?"
"You guys came to save me first." I pushed hard on the lid of the coffin above my head, but it wouldn't budge.
There was silence on the intercom. I anxiously called Shen Chong's name.
Half a day later, a cold voice rang out.
"We'll come and take you out." The intercom buzzed, then fell silent all of a sudden.
My whole heart sank all of a sudden, just now Shen Chong's tone was so strange, and that other person spoke, completely perfunctory to me, without even being able to determine my location, how could he save me?
Suddenly, I seemed to have caught a whiff of sulfurous saltpeter.
Then there was a loud bang, my ears buzzed, a bright light appeared all of a sudden, my eyes stung, and I just wanted to cover my eyes. Instead, I saw a monster with a face full of scales, holding the lid of the coffin high in the air, and was looking closely into my eyes.
My entire body was suddenly wrapped in goosebumps, my scalp tingling as I looked at the monster, and for a moment, I actually forgot to scream.
After a muffled sound, the coffin lid was thrown to the side by him, and then I was picked up by him with force.
During this process, he kept looking at my eyes, I don't know why, but I didn't have a trace of nausea towards him, and I didn't even feel a trace of danger.
He put me on the ground, this is still the same place just now, but Liu Ke disappeared, those bottles filled with all kinds of mutant creatures, has been completely hollow, only the transparent liquid left, the strong flavor of formalin stimulated my nose .
The scaly monster suddenly looked into my eyes.
The blood red eyes were constantly bouncing, as if they were wearing pupils.
On the right side of his forehead, there was a small horn that protruded, and all over his body, he was all wrapped in scales.
I froze and looked at him, but it felt very familiar, he suddenly grabbed my hand and pushed me aside, then moved the coffin I was just lying in, a small hole in the ground, appeared in front of us.
He drilled in first, and then signaled to me.
I subconsciously chose to believe him, and then also drilled into the hole in the ground, and a gloomy and cold aura instantly wrapped my entire being.
It froze me to the point that I shivered.
Amidst the blackness, the scales on his body emitted a faint green light, illuminating our path forward.
"Why did you save me?" I whispered through clenched teeth.
He paused, then continued to crawl forward again without speaking.
Couldn't he speak? Could he be one of those infected people.
After crawling for about ten minutes, suddenly the hole in the ground shook, and there was dirt falling down, my heart tightened, and I was a little worried, and sure enough, after a loud rumble, the dirt above my head, a large amount of it began to fall, and he suddenly looked like a swimming fish, and his whole body circled around my head at once, and then blocked the dirt, and I was pale and didn't dare to move.
Because the sound of falling earth around us kept resounding, soon, the tunnels at both ends, were completely sealed, and we were buried in the mud. There was only a small space.
I bit my lip, suddenly, he stretched out a hand and handed me something, it was a small pink box.
I grabbed his hand, which was full of scales, and looked him dead in the eyes.
In a trembling voice, I said, "Who are you?"
His eyes suddenly flickered, then instead of looking at me, he freed one hand and went to dig out the dirt next to him.
I think I saw the corner of his eye, a trace of red spilled out.
Soon, the soil next to him, was hollowed out probably a small hole that a person could pass through, he drilled in, and then while signaling me to follow, he continued to start punching holes.
What in the world just happened, unexpectedly the entire underground collapsed? My face instantly paled as I thought of the possible reasons.
Did someone move the explosives just now?
The scaly man dug the passageway quickly without saying a word, his hands, like the sharp claws of a pangolin armor, rustling sounds of soil turning, I didn't stop at all, and kept crawling behind him.
Suddenly, in front of my eyes came a bright light, a fresh air, into my nose, my heart was happy.
The scaly man suddenly like a swimming fish from my side drilled through, all of a sudden ran behind me, I was surprised, but see the outside sunlight shines in, but the heart is a lot of joy, he pushed me out at once, I have not yet reacted, only to hear a few muffled sounds of plopping, the hole in the ground even collapsed.
My face changed, and I forcefully patted the underground layer of soil, shouting at him.
There was no half response.
Surrounded by a crowd of people suddenly stood, I looked up with a pale face, and found that I was standing in the middle of the school playground, I don't know how many students, were watching me, and there were even people who took out their cell phones and quickly took pictures.
I screamed loudly, and then rushed into the crowd like a madman, running quickly in the direction of the library.
Our university is very large, the distance between the library and the playground, a full three or four kilometers, ran a few steps, at first there are people behind the chase to take pictures, there are also people shouting my name, but then after that, I drilled through a blockade belt, there is no one to follow up.
I was surprised that there was no one at the blockade.
I continued to run until I came up for air. I finally ran to my memory, the location of the library.
However, today, what I can see is a mass of ruins.
Several heavy road rollers are crushing back and forth.
The original library, surprisingly in such a short period of time, turned into a mass of flat earth.
A familiar figure appeared in my eyes.
It was Shen Chong!
He was now carrying a fast gun, and several people in police uniforms, carefully guarding the location of the library. And behind them, there was a large white cloth covering them.
My whole heart, at once, sank.
Without running two steps, someone spotted me and then bellowed, telling me to stop.
Shen Chong raised his head, and when he saw that it was me, his face visibly changed, then holding his gun, he ran over.
I looked at him with trembling, pointing at the location of the library. Have not yet spoken.
Instead, he grabbed my hand and said sternly, "Where did you come from."
My wrist was in pain, and tears almost fell from my eyes as I glared fiercely at Shen Chong and said, "Just now, you guys bombed the library again?"
Shen Chong narrowed his eyes and pulled me to walk quickly before the white cloth, not saying a word.
Instead, I felt the heaviness of the atmosphere.
Trembling, I crouched down and pulled up a corner of the white cloth, and the strong scent of blood hit my nose.
I stepped back with a pale face, and the white cloth fell back down. But in that instant just now, I saw a bloodied man, the police uniform on his body, all rotted away for the most part.
"What just happened?" I tremblingly asked Shen Chong.
Shen Chong was silent for a moment, looked at me without expression, and said, "Those monsters rushed out, we blocked the first wave, and then when the second wave came, it wasn't blocked, and the higher-ups gave an urgent order to seal this place, and then only then did we move to the blasting and crushing."
I narrowed my eyes slightly and said, "Then the purpose of your call with me just now was to tell me politely that I'm dead?"
Shen Chong frowned and said, "I wanted to come in, but there were strict orders from the top, and, at the time, I couldn't get in."
I laughed coldly, Shen Chong grabbed my hand and said gruffly, "There are other exits?"
I shook off his hand with force and said, "No."
Shen Chong obviously did not believe me, but I remembered that Liu Ke just now, and immediately pressed Shen Chong and said, "Have you caught Liu Ke."
Shen Chong shook his head, but looked me dead in the eye.
I looked back at him with a sharp gaze and said word by word, "The murderer is not Liu Ke, there is another Liu Ke."
Shen Chong's face changed, I continued, "After I was grabbed by that Liu Ke, suddenly there was a vibrating sound coming from him, after he knocked me out, he put me inside a coffin, and I was right out by an infected person."
Shen Chong's face sank a bit, and I knew that he was having trouble believing what I was saying, because the lab sheet was very directly there.
I gritted my teeth and said, "After you guys catch the person, take off his clothes, the one with a huge shoulder to waist wound on his body, Liu Ke, is the murderer, I don't know why they are identical in appearance and genetics, but if you don't want to kill the wrong good person and allow the murderer to steal his life, then believe in what I'm saying."
At this time, the monkey-like criminal police officer came over, saw me obviously with a somewhat unnatural face, and said to Shen Chong, "It's already fine, it shouldn't be able to come out."
Shen Chong nodded, then pulled my hand and walked out.
"What are you doing?" I wanted to break free.
He didn't say anything, step by step, we left the school grounds.
He didn't stop when we passed the outlying police officers, who didn't come over to ask questions.
Gray SUV appeared in my line of sight, then Shen Chong got into the car, I hesitated for a moment, also walked up.
The car started, Shen Chong suddenly said, "I'll take you to a place."
"Where?"
The car stopped in front of a small, dilapidated three-story building.
