Hades sequence

Chapter 27 There is an extra person on the stairs...

Jiang Jiuguo rushed to the villa area.

at the same time.

In the basement of the villa, the first batch of 10 students participated, and the seventh one came down one after another.

"1...2...3...4..."

Student No.7 supported the wall and slowly descended the steps.

Very slow.

It took several seconds to move a step.

Standing in front of the last step of the dark basement stairs, the students who came down earlier were a little speechless.

"I asked Chen Chen, can you walk faster, are you walking with your feet, or are you moving with two petals of your buttocks?"

shouted the male classmate with glasses.

The stairs in front of me were completely dark, and I couldn't see No. 7 classmate at all. I could only identify his position by listening to the movement on the steps.

but.

Being the first to come down might mean staying in the dark for a long time.

He gradually got used to the dark environment, his eyes were no longer pitch black, and he could slightly see outlines in the darkness.

This situation is very favorable to him.

Can't wait to join the hunt.

"Hurry up." He urged again, wanting to show off in front of Jiang Xinyue as soon as possible.

Other students also urged.

"Come down, I want to play this game early."

"I can't wait to show off my skills. You should hurry up. I'm in a hurry."

"Immediately, immediately, don't rush, 5...6..."

The voice of the seventh classmate came from the steps.

He is no more courageous than others. He is afraid of falling down the stairs, so he deliberately walks slowly down the stairs.

"..."

Listening to the seventh student counting the steps slowly, the male student with glasses and others were speechless.

The male classmate with glasses said: "I said Chen Chen, if you said right away, then you dare..."

Accompanied by the sound of the seventh classmate counting the steps.

"7..."

The moment the sound rises.

"I blanch it, it stinks!"

"What does it smell like? It stinks to death."

"Gan, who is farting?"

A musty and rotten smell, as if the smoke filled the surroundings of the male student with glasses and others.

They held their noses and retched because of the stinky smell.

But the next second.

Don’t wait for everyone to find out the source of the odor.

"Ouch."

There was a slight bump on the steps, like a fall. In this basement, which was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, the sound was infinitely amplified.

"What's wrong, Chen Chen?"

The eye-eyed male student didn't care about the smell, and the yell came from the seventh student, Chen Chen, who thought he had fallen from the steps.

Others thought so too.

But don't wait for them to care further.

On the steps, Chen Chen was the first to speak again.

"It's just that you walk a little slower. You guys can't be so wicked. You block my way on the steps and fart at me."

Chen Chen fell down on the steps, covering his nose with his hands.

In the last second, he stepped towards the eighth step, and the moment he stepped on it, he felt that he had bumped into a figure.

The figure stood on the eighth step.

Like a wall.

It hurt his nose, but these were not the worst. He smelled a bad smell, and the smell wafted straight out of his face.

Needless to say.

The smell comes from the figure blocking the eighth step.

"Huh? Are we blocking the road?"

The male classmate with glasses was stunned. He glanced at the dark side and said dissatisfiedly: "Which of you is teasing Chen Chen? Don't mess around. This is on the stairs. If you fall down, something could easily happen."

He couldn't see his surroundings, but could vaguely see the outlines of his classmates.

"not me."

"Who is it? Don't tease Chen Chen."

"It's not me either."

...

"Huh?" The male student with glasses was stunned.

The students on both sides responded one after another, a total of five people.

its not right.

Counting Chen Chen, the number of people who got down so far was seven in total. Excluding Chen Chen and him, there were only five left, but why did five people around him respond.

Others were also surprised at this moment.

They can't see clearly, but they are not deaf, and they can distinguish the sound, and the source of the sound is from the sides, not the stairs.

The number of people does not match.

Counting the male students with glasses, there were six of them in front of the stairs, plus Chen Chen, exactly seven, so who was playing a prank on Chen Chen on the stairs?
"Is it Liu Yun and the others?" said the male student with glasses.

He thought of the 10 people who came down first to hide and prepare to scare others.

The idea came up in less than half a second, and was quickly rejected by people including the male student with glasses.

They were standing at the foot of the stairs.

Liu Yun had to pass them if he wanted to go up the stairs. In such a dark environment, if he wanted to go up the stairs silently, not to mention it was difficult, and it was impossible for them not to feel Liu Yun passing by.

Think about it.

They have no reason to feel chills in their bones.

It wasn't Liu Yun and others, nor them. Then who was blocking the stairs between them and Chen Chen?
There is one more person...

Such thoughts spread in everyone's minds.

"Hey! Liu Yun, stop playing around now. Something happened. Please speak up first."

Not caring about anything else, the male student with eyes trembled and yelled at the people hiding in the three rooms in the basement.

The classmates beside me were also a little panicked.

They are just kids.

In this dark environment, a strange situation suddenly appeared, no matter how courageous you are, you can't sit still.

"Squad leader! Did you let other people come down?"

Someone next to the male classmate with glasses shouted towards the basement entrance door on the steps.

at the same time.

Living room, basement entrance.

The birthday female classmate, who was called the 'monitor', was stunned for a moment.

"No." She asked subconsciously, "what's the matter? What happened?"

It's not that she's responsive.

But just now, something unusual happened in the living room.

half a minute ago.

She and Jiang Xinyue waited for Chen Chen to go down to the basement to ask the next one to go down, but they didn't wait long.

A change had taken place in the living room.

First the lights near the basement, then the lights around the living room.

All the lights were moving from near to far from the basement, as if they were short-circuited, flickering suddenly.

Change suddenly.

Everyone was startled. The next second, before the shock had subsided, the light changed again, like a candle in the wind. From near to far, the light gave off the last faint light, as if it was about to go out at any time.

The bright living room became dark at this moment.

Then I heard the shouts of my male classmates with glasses in the basement.

"Huh? Chen Chen, what's the matter with you? Say something?" The squad leader said at this time: "Did something happen?"

One second, two seconds... five seconds...

There was still no sound from the basement.

at this time.

Inside the basement.

The male student with eyes received a response from the monitor, and at the same time, Liu Yuan and others who were hiding inside also responded.

"No, what happened?" the 10 people hiding said one after another.

Deadly silent.

The surroundings were dark and it was difficult to see the expressions of the people around him, but at this moment, the expressions of all the male classmates were surprisingly the same.

that look.

The horror was almost written on his face.

"It wasn't the squad leader who sent people down, nor us, nor Liu Yuan and the others, so who is it?"

The male student with glasses raised his head towards the stairs in front of him with a trembling voice.

After staying in the dark for a long time, they gradually adapted to the dark environment and could be seen faintly. Apart from Chen Chen's figure on the stairs, there was a tall human silhouette at some point.

and.

I don't know if I'm too scared, the more scared I am, the easier it is to think wildly.

In vain they perceived two things.

One is that the surroundings seem to have become colder, and the cold makes goosebumps, at least a few degrees lower.

The second is that the disgusting smell has not dissipated until now, on the contrary it is more intense.

Take a deep breath.

The smell was not the smell of farts, but more like the smell of rotting meat, and the source was almost certainly coming from the outline on the stairs.

a time.

The idea of ​​'one more person' changed.

Now there is not only one more person, but also a tall person who smells like rotten flesh.

"Have you noticed?" The male student with glasses broke the silence.

Then don't ask people questions.

He took the lead and said: "Chen Chen... why didn't he speak just now?"

The voice struck my heart like a lightning strike.

Yes.

Why didn't Chen Chen speak?As the person involved, why hasn't he made any movement since just now.

"Chen Chen, what are you doing?"

"Say something, Chen Chen, what's wrong with you?"

They didn't dare to think about it, but in this dark environment, people's wild thoughts are often not good, so they dared to ask the person concerned in a hurry.

It was eerily quiet on the stairs.

There was no response at all.

in the dark.

Chen Chen was covering his mouth tightly, not letting himself make any sound, he even stopped breathing, and stared at the tall figure in front of him in horror.

He really wanted to say something back to the male classmate with glasses.

But the tall figure on the eighth step in front of him made him unable to respond.

a few seconds ago.

After complaining about being teased by a prank, Chen Chen stretched out his hand to scare those who stood in the way in order to save face.

But when your hands touch the other person’s skin

Chen Chen discovered a frightening thing.

cold!
The figure in front of him was so cold, his body temperature was as low as dead pork in the freezer, and it was already covered in frost.

Not to mention that it is summer, but no matter how low the human body temperature is, it is impossible to reach this level.

this moment.

Chen Chen withdrew his hand in fright, and a memory appeared in his mind.

That was about last summer, when his grandmother died. He still remembered that he accidentally touched her body. Grandma was also so cold. In order to prevent decay, ice was placed underneath her body, and her body temperature was also so cold.

Immediately, it seemed to remember something.

Chen Chen was so frightened that he tightened his body and didn't dare to make any more movements.

He recalled it.

The person in front of him not only had a low body temperature, but also had a very familiar smell, which was almost the same as the smell of grandma's corpse when it rotted.
