Chapter 0417 – Terrifying Night
”The construction team had long since stopped wanting to stay in the depths of the Corpse Vault, they blocked the road leading to the depths of the Corpse Vault and began to expand the Corpse Vault according to the drawings.”
”After coming out from the depths of the underground corpse vault, there were really no more accidents, and the construction team began to put in intense work.”
”Time was limited, and when the deadline was approaching, they would work overtime until very late in order to catch up with the work.”
”The school also knew that it wasn’t easy for them, and would send people to bring them water and provide what help they could.” Zhang Li said this and gritted his teeth, “The school authority gave this task to the teacher who stayed at the school and the security team, and in the beginning everyone would go over there together, but then that teacher would often leave early probably because he saw that there wasn’t much of a problem in the corpse vault. The rest of the security team wasn’t interested in this either, and in the end they left everything to me alone.”
”The underground corpse vault was originally expanded a few times, and the internal roads were very complicated, so I, a new security guard, could easily get lost going over there alone even if I had a map in my hand.”
”When there were still three days left before the deadline, the construction team side was also in a hurry, and a new batch of workers were found, split into two shifts, and rushed to work around the clock.”
”They worked around the clock, so my side had to accompany them, it was fine during the day, but at night every time I entered the underground corpse vault I felt strange.”
”It was summer, and it was as hot as a steamer outside, but not only was it not hot when I entered the vault, sometimes I would shiver inexplicably.”
”The newly found batch of workers didn’t know what happened in the depths of the underground corpse vault, they still foolishly felt that this working environment was very good, and when someone was tired at night, they just padded the waste cardboard box to the ground and secretly slept for a while.” Zhang Li pressed his cigarette butt hard into the iron plate, and his story was told to the end.
”The underground corpse vault at night is not quite the same as during the day, I can’t tell exactly where it’s different, and on the night that was the penultimate third day from the deadline of the work period, the strange things started to appear again.”
”I received the call at 1:00 a.m., the underground corpse vault side called and said that someone was missing, I hurriedly notified the others and rushed towards the underground corpse vault side.”
”When I was halfway there, the underground corpse vault side called again to say that the person had been found, at that time I was furious with myself, and even more furious was that when I fed back this situation to the teacher in charge, that person even gave me a hard argument, saying that I had blindly called him without clarifying the situation.”
”I had no way to refute it, and returned to the dormitory alone, and had just laid down not long before a worker called again from the underground corpse vault side, in an anxious tone, saying that another person had disappeared.”
”This time I inquired about the other person’s situation, and that person told me that the worker who disappeared in the beginning heard someone calling him, and when he looked up, he saw someone in the passageway waving to him, and as a result, he followed him there. When he was halfway there, he realized that the path seemed to be heading deeper into the underground corpse vault, he felt that something wasn’t right, so he hurriedly ran back.”
”The second missing worker was lost when he went out to look for the first one, his cell phone couldn’t be reached, and now he doesn’t know where the person has gone.”
”As soon as I heard that it was quite urgent, I rushed to the underground corpse storage while changing the phone to a teacher.”
”After that teacher learned that something had happened, he told me to go over and stabilize the situation first, and he would be there later.”
”I stayed in the underground corpse vault with the worker all that night, and it wasn’t until almost dawn that I found that worker deep in the underground passage.”
”He was lying unconscious next to the half-dug morgue.”
”It was something that no one could say why, and a wave of unease spread through the construction team, none of whom were willing to remain here any longer. But seeing as the deadline was about to close and the expansion was about to be completed, it was a little too bad to give up at this point.”
”In the end, the university stepped in and had the security team accompany the construction team at night amongst the underground vault of corpses, making sure to ensure that the expansion was completed within the deadline.”
”The penultimate night, I and two other security guards stayed behind, any problems on the construction team’s side, you can directly ask us.”
”To the latter half of the night I really can not hold out on a corner to take a nap, this night is quite calm, there is no problem.”
”The construction entered the final stage, at night in the underground corpse warehouse stayed up for so long, during the day I slept directly in the dormitory for the whole day.”
”To the last night, I called those two security guards together to go to the underground corpse warehouse, the first half of the night was calm, the second half of the night I thought that there would not be anything, so I looked for an unnoticeable room again, padded with a few broken cement bags want to secretly rest for a while.”
”Probably because I was so nervous during that time, I fell asleep quickly.”
”When I opened my eyes again in a daze, I realized that the underground corpse vault had become much darker, and the work lights carried by the construction team had all been turned off, leaving only those old-fashioned wall lamps on the walls.”
”I lay in the corner and looked up, people were coming and going on the passageway outside, the construction team seemed to be still busy.”
”Having just woken up from a nap, my head was a bit foggy and I took out my cell phone to try to see what time it was.”
”I hadn’t even looked at the time on the screen clearly on my side, when I suddenly heard footsteps ringing out, and someone walked in.”
”People are working outside, I’m lazy inside the house, this is going to be seen to feel the impact is not good, so I did not say anything.”
”The man came in and turned around and then went out again, I looked at my cell phone, it would have been 3:40 a.m., and the screen still showed a few unread text messages and a few missed calls.”
”I was lying on a concrete bag and tapped on the message and realized it was from two other security guards who asked me where I was.”
Before the smoke in the room cleared, Tension took out another cigarette and after lighting it, he took a few hard puffs.
”I really didn’t think much at that time, sent a message back to him: I’m still in the corpse warehouse, where are you people? Is not secretly run back to the dormitory?”
”I am a newcomer always want to play good relations with them, but also with a joking tone back: you guys are really not interesting enough, go also do not call on me.”
”After ten seconds or so, that person gave me a message back, let me hurry out, a lot of people are looking for me.”
”I’m a bit puzzled, outside the construction team is still working, these two people sneaked away, now even said that many people are looking for me.”
”At the time I was about to send him a message, that person a phone call over, after connecting I realized that things are completely different from what I imagined.”
”The first thing that person said when he opened his mouth was, the expansion has been completed, the construction teams have all pulled out, what are you doing staying alone in the corpse vault?”
Zhang Li bit off the cigarette in his mouth as he gripped his knees with both hands in a death grip, “When I heard his words, I even specifically looked outside, people were coming and going in the corridor, and one of them seemed to have heard a loud noise and was walking directly towards the room I was in.”
