this is not a joke

Chapter 251 What's Behind?
After hearing this abnormal noise, because Wei An's nerves were already tense at the moment, he turned around quickly almost subconsciously.

Behind him was a small flower bed with flowers in full bloom, not fake flowers. There were long benches around the flower bed for guests to rest on, but Wei An didn't see anything unusual.

Turning around again, everything is normal in the sight, it may be the sound made by the wooden boards on the flower bed benches just now.

Then Wei An walked to the nearest shop. In this shop, only three corpses could be seen at a glance. I don't know if there is any place hidden by the container in the innermost part.

The glass door of this shop was also locked from the inside, but there was a dead body lying on the crack of the door when it died. It seemed that it wanted to open the glass door and run out before it died, but it was locked by itself. In vain.

Because the lock inside the door is the kind of iron chain lock used to lock motorcycles, the glass door was still opened with a large gap, and the corpse's head was stuck in the crack of the door, maintaining this posture, motionless .

Wei An has noticed that until now he found that none of the corpses in these shops had wounds on their bodies, and they didn't even see blood, so it seemed that these people were all scared to death.

He approached the corpse whose head was stuck between the crack of the door, and bent over to observe it carefully.

It was found that the man maintained a terrified expression, and his mouth was also opened wide, as if he was trying to get out, but the time was frozen at this moment.

It was at this moment that the man was frightened to death. Not only were his eyes staring fiercely at the front, but even part of the eyeballs protruded, and the surface of the eyeballs was covered with bloodshot streaks horizontally and vertically, looking hideous and terrifying.

despair!
At this moment, another strange sound came from behind Wei An, and he turned his head immediately.

His eyes swept over all suspicious places, but he still found nothing.

It is too quiet here now, except for the sound of my own breathing, there is no other sound. If there is a little abnormal noise, it may indeed be amplified in my ears.

Wei An was worried that it was caused by his own paranoia, so he walked to the long chair beside the flower bed, stretched out his hand and pressed the wooden boards that make up the chair, but there was also a clicking sound, but it didn't sound the same as the one just now. Same.

He looked up and looked around.

Now the shops on the first floor of this shopping mall are full of locked up corpses. If the doors of these shops are opened, there may be a high chance of absorbing the black energy that builds the spiritual barrier.

It's just that it needs to be tried one by one. If Wei An directly opens the fear totem at this moment, he will instantly perceive which shop has black air.

However, the ability of fear totem is very precious, he would rather spend more time looking for it by himself.

despair!
The sound reappeared, and Wei An immediately turned his head, and saw the head of the man stuck in the crack of the glass door that he saw just now, slid down a little, and was about to touch the ground.

At this moment, Wei An suddenly felt very uneasy.

He realized that he might have stayed on the first floor of the shopping mall for too long, because judging from the current situation here, the people on this floor obviously discovered something extremely terrifying, so they rushed into the shop one after another, and immediately sent The glass door is locked.

Regardless of how they died, at least it shows that when they took this precaution, there was a great terror hovering outside the shop.

So this floor is very unsafe now.

Wei An immediately walked towards the stopped escalator.

Just now he saw that the stairwell was right behind him on the left, but he had to open a door to get in. He didn't know what was going on inside, so it was best not to take risks lightly.

Soon he came to the escalator, and quickly climbed up the stairs in three steps and two steps.

But almost at the same moment, Wei An heard the same footsteps climbing the stairs behind him, about two or three steps away from him, the footsteps were the same as his own, and seemed very hurried.

"Fuck!"

Wei An didn't have time to take a closer look, so he immediately speeded up the stairs, and it only took a few seconds to run along the escalator to the second floor.

The moment he stepped on the second floor, he turned around suddenly, and the bloody hammer appeared in his hand, but he was stunned immediately.

There was nothing on the stairs behind me.

Wei An looked at the side-by-side escalators on the other side, but there were none.

He tilted his head slightly, wondering if he had auditory hallucinations because the environment here was too weird and suspicious.

But after thinking about it, it was wrong. Now that I have experienced so many strange talks, it is impossible to mishear the strange voice just now.

Looking around, I found that there were several scattered corpses lying or lying on the ground outside the second floor. These corpses were wearing various styles of clothes, and they should be customers shopping in the mall.

The second floor is not like the first floor. There are also dead people outside the shops. Of course, Wei An also found that most of the shops here are also closed from the inside, and some shops have not even had time to lock the doors. As if not letting anyone in.

However, the tragic condition of the corpses was the same as that on the first floor, all of them had bulging eyes, staring wide open, just so scared to death.

Some people just ran to the door of the shop, and before they even had time to close the door, they also fell to the ground and died in panic.

The security guards on the second floor still haven't seen any living people, but based on the death conditions and environment of these people, it can be inferred that when they encountered the terrifying thing, they didn't react as quickly as those on the first floor. There wasn't much time, so many people didn't run into the store.

"That is to say..." Wei An looked up at the third floor of the shopping mall.

He returned to the escalator and climbed up to the third floor again, but this time when he reached the middle of the stairs, he heard the same footsteps going up the stairs not far behind him.

Wei An was already prepared. The moment he heard the footsteps, he immediately looked back.

There was nothing behind him, nothing.

Although he didn't see anything, Wei An is now convinced that he was being targeted by something, and this thing might be the culprit that scared so many people in this mall to death.

Standing on the stairs for a while, Wei An continued to turn around and came to the third floor, this time there was no sound of footsteps behind him.

But after going up to the third floor of the shopping mall, he was completely stunned. Wherever he came in, there were many dead people lying on the ground, and the shops on the third floor were basically open. Only people from two shops closed their doors, but the people who closed the doors were also frightened to death in the shops.

As for the others, they probably didn’t have time to react, and basically fell outside the shop, with their eyes protruding high. There were more than a dozen dead people whose eyeballs were about to fall out. It's bloodshot.

Through capturing the details, Wei An can now draw the conclusion that the fear started from upstairs and passed down from one level to the next, and the people above were frightened to death without much reaction time.

And the further you go down, the more time you have to react for other people, which allows them to run into the shop and hide, and try to lock the door to escape.

It's just that things didn't go as expected, no matter where they hid, as long as they were in this shopping mall, everyone seemed to be scared to death.

Wei An looked up at the highest floor of the mall, which was the fourth floor.

So far, he hasn't seen the three people from Fancheng Investigation Group [-] and Zhang Zuxia who first entered this strange story, so he doesn't know if they have all gone to the fourth floor.
