Chapter 62 Unloading Warehouse
But looking at the fire axe in Liu Haoyu’s hand, Wang Pansan changed his tune and said.
“Yes, yes, yes, you’re so right, I should follow you!”
The murderer wearing a gas mask turned around again, causing Wang Pansan to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
The group arrived at the rolling shutter door. Wang Pansan used the key to open the door and lifted the gap to the height of a person, then said to Liu Haoyu.
“You go in first.”
“Okay.”
Liu Haoyu naturally wouldn’t be polite. He entered the unloading warehouse, and after Wang Pansan and the other dogs came in, he closed the door again.
He looked at Liu Haoyu, who was sizing up the warehouse. The nervousness and unease in his heart made him constantly rub his hands. Deep down, he had already begun to retreat, thinking about how to escape from this man’s clutches.
“By the way, Heavenly Master, can I ask you something presumptuously?”
“Are you a curious baby?”
Liu Haoyu had no time to pay attention to the security guard behind him. As long as he followed him obediently, everything would be fine.
“Uh… I just want to ask, are you really a Daoist priest? If you are a Daoist priest, why are you wearing a gas mask?”
“Do you understand miasma? Do you understand hiding your identity?” Liu Haoyu observed his surroundings: “Have you ever seen Detective Conan, who revealed that I was Shinji in the first episode?”
“Reasonable and convincing.”
In fact, the function of the gas mask was not only to hide his identity, but also to have a certain effect against the miasma or poisonous fog created by fierce ghosts.
Even if the filter element could not be replaced in time, it was still better than being directly exposed to the toxic gas.
After entering this building, the mechanical roaring sound in his ears became more piercing, and there was a strong smell of mixed rust and chemical agents.
This smell was very light for Liu Haoyu, who was wearing a mask, but the security guard was already used to it.
Instead, Qin Liu, who was behind Liu Haoyu, was so choked that she had to pinch her nose, and her face was all puffed up.
The watchman who was brought in was also choked and whimpered.
However, Wang Pansan didn’t know why he brought this dog in. Maybe having something as a companion, even if it was just a dog, would make him feel a little more at ease.
The air in the unloading warehouse was a bit cold, possibly because the air conditioning in this building was turned on.
The thick resentment made the air here quite viscous. Wang Pansan felt that his breathing was a little difficult, and fear began to grow in his heart.
He forced himself to calm down, but his gaze involuntarily swept across the grim surroundings. The red safety slogans that looked normal before now seemed so eerie.
It was as if someone had repainted them with blood. The lights in the unloading warehouse flickered intermittently, emitting bursts of static discharge sound.
This light had not been repaired for a long time. After all, no one would come to unload goods at night, and the lights would not be turned on during the day.
But even by repeatedly telling himself “everything will be fine” in his heart, beads of sweat still appeared on the security guard’s forehead, and his lips trembled slightly.
“This place has always been like this… Nothing should happen.”
However, his confidence sounded a little unconvincing. Liu Haoyu’s face hidden under the mask became more and more serious.
With such a strong resentment, staying for a longer time might even cause ordinary people to suffocate.
From this, it could be seen that he was getting closer and closer to Shirley Lai.
Just then, a gust of cold wind blew, carrying a hint of chill, making both of them shiver involuntarily.
Wang Pansan, who was walking at the end, vaguely felt an invisible force pulling at his clothes.
He thought it was the wind blowing, so he unconsciously looked back, but there was nothing behind him.
And at that moment, he suddenly remembered something…
This unloading warehouse had no windows at all!
Where did this icy wind come from?!
His body trembled even more violently, and the dog next to him suddenly struggled.
As if greatly startled, it kept barking “woof woof woof”.
The barking echoed continuously in the empty warehouse, sounding particularly harsh.
Liu Haoyu looked back and saw that the dog was desperately struggling, trying to break free from Wang Pansan’s leash. Its eyes were fixed on a certain direction ahead, revealing a fierce and fearful expression.
“Shh! Be quiet!”
Wang Pansan didn’t know why the dog suddenly went crazy. He quickly comforted it, trying to calm it down.
Liu Haoyu followed the dog’s gaze, but saw nothing except for a dark void that seemed to hide something.
“Be quiet…”
Wang Pansan’s voice was already tinged with pleading. After all, dogs were not allowed in the workshop, and if the factory manager found out, he would be fined, let alone bringing an outsider in.
If others saw this, his job would truly be lost!
“Woof woof woof!”
The watchdog’s pupils contracted continuously, and its fur stood on end, like an enraged hedgehog, staring intently ahead.
But its body kept retreating. Finally, as if something had rushed in front of it, it let out a whimpering scream, then broke free from Wang Pansan’s leash and ran wildly in the direction away from the sound.
The dog ran as if it were crazy, at a frightening speed. In a short while, it completely disappeared into the darkness.
“Don’t run!”
Seeing this, Wang Pansan couldn’t care about anything else and quickly went to chase after the dog.
“Wait! Don’t chase!”
Liu Haoyu tried to stop him, but Wang Pansan’s figure had already disappeared into the distance.
Seeing this, Liu Haoyu felt a sense of unease.
Human lives were at stake, so he had no choice but to chase after him in this direction.
——————
“Where are you going?”
Wang Pansan was panting from the frantic chase. Because he kept breathing in the air mixed with rust and chemicals, his lungs felt a little sore.
What was even more terrifying was that he didn’t know where the dog had run off to.
“Woof woof! Woof woof, where are you!?”
Wang Pansan called out while quickening his pace to catch up.
However, even though his shouts were so loud, it seemed as if no one in the entire building could hear them.
At this moment, Wang Pansan finally came to his senses and realized something was wrong.
Fear tightened his heart bit by bit.
Looking at the vast darkness around him, Wang Pansan’s back felt a chill.
“Woof woof woof!”
The barking became more and more frenzied and urgent, as if it was being chased by something.
“Wuwu~”
The barking abruptly stopped, followed by a whimpering scream.
The sound was very close, as if it were just around the corner ahead.
