Chapter 123 Horror Atmosphere

Built in 1939, Rockefeller Center is located in the heart of Manhattan, New York.

It is a complex of 19 commercial buildings. It can be said to be the second commercial center in New York. It not only has the highest viewing platform in Manhattan, but also has fashion brands and brands from all over the world. Jewelry brand!
It's just that since the year before last, the number of Japanese companies in Rockefeller Center has increased day by day.In Rockefeller Center, except for the General Electric Building, the occupancy rate of Japanese companies in all buildings has reached 35%.

The office of Mitsubishi Estate, one of the three largest real estate developers in Japan, is located on the 24th floor of the Hanwa Industrial Bank Building.

The entire floor was leased by Mitsubishi Land, and Kazuki Iwasaki was the manager of the investment and financing department.

He has an independent office on this floor that belongs to him alone. Iwasaki and Nozomi, who looked tired, slumped in his boss chair as soon as the computer on the desk was turned off.

I rested for a long time.

Iwasaki and Xicai raised their hands and glanced at the watches on their wrists: "It's already 2 o'clock in the morning!"

Iwasaki Kazuki patted his forehead in frustration and hurriedly put on the suit jacket, then picked up the Tiffany spring gift box that the secretary had prepared during the day and walked out of the independent office.

The office floor rented by Mitsubishi Land is no different from other companies.

Inside the huge office hall are row upon row of workstations and narrow aisles, and each workstation has purchased computers and landline telephones from IBM that have become popular this year as essential tools for employees.

There are many independent offices on both sides of the office hall.

The door of the independent office that Iwasaki and Nozomi walked out of had a sign of "Manager of Investment and Finance Department". According to the past, there are at least 10 people on duty in the office hall at this moment, but because today is Memorial Day in the United States, according to the state The government requires that all employees have a day off!
Others can rest, but Iwasaki Kazuki can't, because his surname is Iwasaki, the most noble in Japan!
The head of the Mitsubishi consortium, if he can't stand out in the generation of the Mitsubishi family, then he is likely to lose his little sweetheart in the United States, and he may lose everything he has now.

He can't accept these.

He had just walked out of the office and saw that the office, which was extremely lively during the day, was completely dark at this point. It was nothing in the past, but today Iwasaki and Nozomi murmured in their hearts. Those who do not return are in the narrow aisle of the office.

A few corridor lights (passage lights) specially reserved for him added a weird atmosphere to the huge office.

Just when Iwasaki and Xi were about to walk to the door, suddenly the porch lights in the aisle seemed to be out of control, flickering crazily, this movement shocked Iwasaki and Xi greatly!

"idiot"

Just as Iwasaki and Xi said these words, a landline on the side of him suddenly rang, and the landline sounded like a signal, and those corridor lights went out with a "swish". At this moment, I was stunned.

Just behind him, there was a sudden "click" and "click" sound of high heels stepping on the floor.

Iwasaki Kazuki clearly felt that the hairs on his back stood up all of a sudden, he resisted the thought of turning his head back and forcibly flew towards the outside by his own will.

"Boom"

Iwasaki and Nozomi fell to the ground without paying attention. When he left the 24th floor, he still made a sound of "ahhhhhhhhh".

Marko saw Iwasaki and Xi covering their mouths and almost laughed out loud when he saw Iwasaki and Xi running away, Tao Xi was thinking about Marko's back: "You are going to die! Run away, you are not afraid that he will find you! You have to stretch out your feet and shake him!"

"Didn't I remember the last time I was beaten by these little devils?"

"But Tao Xi, your move is really cool! I just don't know if the elevator will break or not. I think we still need two trip wires to make the elevator hang in midair."

Tao Xi rolled his eyes at Marco and ignored him. Tao Xi tidied up the gloves on his feet and tied a plastic bag on his head before moving towards the monitor in the office hall. The dead corner moved slowly.

Seeing that Tao Xi ignored him, Marco hurriedly crawled along the workstations in the office hall towards the electric box.

Marco, who had climbed near the electrical box, was skillfully fiddled with the messy wires in the electrical box wearing insulating gloves, while Taoxi got right above the ventilation duct in the office hall instead.

The property of Hanhua Industrial Bank Building is doing very well, and there is no noise at all in the office hall of Mitsubishi Estate.

But just as Tao Xi got into the ventilation duct, he heard a hoarse scream from a man. Tao Xi skillfully climbed a few steps along the ventilation duct and arrived directly above the elevator patio.

At this time, the elevator was hanging danglingly between the 28th and 27th floors by the trip wire that Tao Xi had stuck there at first.

Iwasaki and Nozomi couldn't get out of the elevator because of the stagnant position. They could only scream helplessly inside. Tao Xi took out a folded iron wire from his pocket, and stroked the wire bit by bit. Straight, the straightened wire is just enough to reach the trip wire of the main elevator.

When the wire buckled the "trip wire", Tao Xi squeezed his throat and let out a kind of "quack quack" laughter that made people feel panicked towards the top of the patio.

Just as Tao Xi made a sound, the "crack" sound of the trip wire being pulled away by the wire was also covered up.

"Swish"

"Swish"

"Swish"

The elevator seemed to lose control and kept falling towards the ground, and the gust of wind caused the plastic bag on Tao Xi's head to almost fly out.

Iwasaki Kazuki in the elevator didn't notice that his crotch was wet, and the expensive watch on his wrist fell on the elevator.

The rapidly falling elevator made Iwasaki and Nozomi immediately lose the ability to think. The falling elevator and Iwasaki and Nozomi's screams attracted the attention of the building's security guards.

But fortunately, the elevator of the Hanhua Industrial Bank Building has just been maintained, and the number key [1] with flashing lights still slows down the elevator on the 8th floor. When the elevator reaches the 3rd floor, the speed of the elevator has been completely slowed down. Got it under control.

After seeing that the elevator had resumed his initial speed, Tao Xi also waited for Marko.

"Is the electric box okay?"

"No problem, I have replaced the short-circuited line before, and our fingerprints are not left on the switch."

"Okay, what we should do now is wait for the police car to arrive on the first floor!"

When Marco heard Tao Xi's words, he whispered excitedly to Tao Xi: "What about Los Angeles! Los Angeles, have we chosen a target?"

Tao Xi looked at the excited Marko and warned: "We will do Los Angeles by ourselves! But I have already asked Uncle Kushner to go to other places. You should put out the thoughts in your mind as soon as possible!"

The two security guards who heard the movement resisted the smell in the elevator and set up Iwasaki Kazuki who was limp in the elevator. After seeing the two security guards appearing, Iwasaki and Xi frantically grabbed the people on both sides as if they had touched some life-saving straw. Shouted loudly: "Ghost! There is a ghost! Has anyone died in this building of yours, has anyone died!"

The two security guards glanced at each other and did not answer what Iwasaki and Xi said. When Iwasaki and Xi saw that his words did not get a response, he immediately grabbed the arm of one of the security guards and shouted loudly: "I want to call the police! I want to Complain! I am the seventh generation legal heir of the Mitsubishi family, and I need political asylum! I need to see Japanese diplomats!"

The property manager who was working overtime also rushed over with a look of embarrassment on his face. When he saw that Iwasaki and Xida, who had always been suave and suave before, were scared to death at night, he was also shocked.

"what happened!"

Iwasaki and Nozomi just sat slumped on the chair in the hall and muttered with blank eyes: "There are ghosts! There are ghosts! There are ghosts!"

The two security guards also had an expression of asking questions and knowing nothing. When the property manager saw this situation, he first reported the situation to his superiors, then notified the person in charge of Mitsubishi Estate, and finally called the police and called the doctor!
It's just that the property manager had a little problem when he called the police.

"I told you, this is the problem our owner repeated to us, why did you hang up on me! He said there was a ghost! I didn't say anything!"

When the police officer heard the alarm in the headset, he said helplessly to his colleague: "Help me check if this phone number is from the Rockefeller Property Center."

"No problem, it's the property registration number of Hanwah Industrial Bank Building in Rockefeller Center."

When the police officer received the confirmation reply from his colleague, he helplessly replied to the property manager: "Sorry, after all, what you said is too unbelievable. I have to confirm with you again. Are you sure that there is a supernatural event in your building?" Yet? "

The property manager turned his head and glanced at Iwasaki Kazuki with blank eyes, still muttering what he said just now, and the property manager immediately replied firmly: "That's right! You should investigate first!"

Dead Daoist friends do not die poor Daoists!
Who knows what ghosts and monsters are standing behind the owner of their Mitsubishi estate, and the property manager is also afraid that this incident will cause him to lose his job, so he can only report what the owner says!
And he wasn't the only one at the scene, all his subordinates could testify for him, the most urgent thing is to get him out of this matter first.

The first time the policeman hung up the phone, he did not announce the alarm to the paging station. Instead, he took the alarm ticket and came to his leader to report the situation, because there is no [supernatural event] in the police code. this code!

When Zelens saw the question on the call sheet, he cursed at the first moment: "Have these damned New York upper-class people been kicked in the head by a donkey? Are you sure this kind of alert can be announced?"

The police officer just stood there obediently and didn't say a word, because the cause and effect of the incident had been explained very clearly.

After scolding for a while, Zelens obediently reported the police information in his hand to his superior again!

Because the affairs of these rich people are not small matters, if he does not treat the affairs of these big people carefully, then he is likely to get various lawyer letters and complaints, and they are not the police who know the law best It's the group of damned vested interests.
-
Tao Xi, who was squatting in the parking lot near the Hanhua Industrial Bank Building, was fiddling with the camera in his hand cross-legged, while Marco looked at the surrounding environment a little anxiously.

"Why haven't the police come yet?"

"How many police cars do the Los Angeles police usually come to when they encounter a case in Beverly Hills?"

Marco was stunned for a moment when he heard Tao Xi's rhetorical question, but he quickly answered Tao Xi's question: "4 police cars."

"That's right, what happened was the head of the investment department of Mitsubishi Estate. That person's surname is Iwasaki. The reason why the police didn't come is because the New York police didn't know how to deploy police forces for this case. Don't worry. , the next police cars and reporters will definitely come more than we imagined!"

"And no one is willing to take risks for a suspected psychopath!" After Tao Xi said this, the corners of his mouth curled up triumphantly, and Marko looked thoughtfully towards the street when he heard Tao Xi's conclusion past.

In about 20 minutes, two police cars arrived at the Rockefeller Center first, and then one after another police cars drove towards the Rockefeller Center one after another, and the reporters who smelled the fishy smell followed closely behind.

Tao Xi looked at the movement around him, and said to Marco with the camera placed on the ground: "Try to find a way to sell the film in the camera to Fox News. I remember that it will cost at least 5000 US dollars. Busy at night."

"What's in the camera?"

Tao Xi, who walked to the exit of the parking lot, replied loudly to Marco: "Isn't there a photo in the envelope? See for yourself!"

Marco, who saw the photo inside the envelope, saw [May 1979, 5] in the lower right corner of the photo at first glance. The date of this photo happened to be six years ago today!

But the more Marco looked at this photo, the more familiar it became. After Marco looked around the surrounding environment, Marco cursed directly: "Oh! Fxxk!"

The photo inside the envelope happened to be the parking lot where they were.

There is a mass of [phosphorus fire] floating directly above the parking lot, and a truck transporting fish is parked not far from [phosphorus fire].

This photo is just perfect.

[Wildfire] and [Truck] not only gave a scientific explanation but also gave a conclusion that can be communicated to the public.

Marko quickly raised his head and looked towards the Hanhua Industrial Bank Building diagonally opposite, but if this photo from six years ago was handed over to those news organizations to explain what happened today, would it really work?
When the scientific explanation collides with the matter in front of us, will the general public believe in the scientific explanation or what they think?
Tao Xi didn't know, and Marco didn't know, all this can only wait for the fermentation of public opinion.
