Chapter 189: Key
Gray Bear stared at the piece of paper for a few seconds, his expression softening with a hint of sympathy flashing through his eyes.
It turned out that Li Huafeng was writing a note for her four-year-old daughter.
She was a mere wanderer, but imprisoned in this subspace by the Heavenly Way, she was forced to relive this period of time again and again while she was none the wiser, still believing herself to be the single mother waiting for Sunday to come so that she could go to the amusement park with her little girl.
Gray Bear returned the note to her and said, “Give it a rest. I have things to ask you.”
Li Huafeng put her note away and easily complied. “Of course, of course. Go on.”
“Do you know where the broadcast room is?”
Li Huafeng immediately responded, “Yes, it’s on the fifth floor, next to the office.”
“Is it locked?”
“It should be.” L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.
“Where’s the key?”
“There should be one each in the offices of the superintendent and the director of academic affairs.” Li Fenghua paused to lick her pale lips. “Their offices are on the second floor.”
“Will the door be locked?”
“The superintendent’s office most likely is, but not the director’s.”
That gave Gao Yang a rough idea of what they should do.
“When the school bell rings, the rune corpses should be drawn to the speakers on the walls. We’ll send a few people to the director’s office on the second floor for the key. The rest will stay here on standby.”
The others listened quietly.
Gao Yang continued, “Ten minutes later, the bell will ring again. Then the team with the key will seize the opening to return here, the infirmary on the third floor.”
“We’ll do that.” Nine Frost nodded in approval. “Twenty seconds isn’t enough time to grab the key and rush to the fifth floor. We’ll wait for the next bell ring and go to the broadcast room together.”
“Yes.” Gao Yang turned to the others. “Question?”
They thought for a few seconds and didn’t say anything.
“Make the pick, Nine Frost,” said Gao Yang.
Nine Frost thought for a moment. “Black Sparrow and I from the fourth team along with Seven Shadow and Lithe Snake from the fifth team will go grab the key. The rest of you, keep watch in the infirmary.”
No matter how sharp, however, the wooden stick had no blade, and the rune corpse was still alive with the stick pinning it in place, swinging its arms around madly.
Gao Yang slammed its head with his wrench, and with a dull sound, the head shattered.
The two rune corpses collapsed. However, they had already wasted six to seven seconds. They quickly rushed to the second floor and turned left. What they saw after taking a couple steps, however, made them halt in place.
The corridor was about twenty meters long, and the director’s office was at the end of it. However, a dozen and more rune corpses stood between them and the office door. There was a speaker over their heads, playing the school bell.
There wasn’t enough space for the four of them to get around the rune corpses!
Calm down, calm down.
Gao Yang quickly came to a solution and said through clenched teeth, “Leave it to me. I’ll draw them away...”
A hand found his shoulder. Gao Yang turned to see that it was Lithe Snake.
With a cold look on his face, Lithe Snake said, “That won’t do. You’ll die. I’ll do it.”
Gao Yang was shocked. He didn’t expect Lithe Snake to volunteer himself.
Still, Lithe Snake was right. Even without his Talent, Lithe Snake was still their tier 1 combatant given his agility, flexibility, and combat techniques.
Without waiting for a response, Lithe Snake rushed toward the rune corpses and shouted, “Come on! Here I am!”
The rune corpses blocking the corridor immediately turned to him, their keen ears shifting.
Each howling and growling with intense want, they rushed toward Lithe Snake stiffly yet quickly.
Maintaining his calm, Lithe Snake didn’t immediately run away but instead waited for most rune corpses to charge at him before dashing into the stairway, making it down to the first floor.
The rune corpses stumbled down after him.
Pressing their backs to the walls of the second-floor hallway, Gao Yang, Nine Frost, and Black Sparrow remained silent.
Only after the rune corpses had gone downstairs did they rush through the corridor. The school bell had long ended by then.
There remained two rune corpses in the narrow corridor. Nine Frost stabbed the wooden stick in his hand through the eye of one. He used a little too much force, and the wooden stick broke inside after almost going through the rune corpse’s head.
Nine Frost let go of the stick and kicked the rune corpse away.
Gao Yang had taken care of the other one with his wrench. It toppled to the floor.
Without the time to make another strike to ensure the rune corpses’ deaths, they jumped over the rune corpses on the floor and rushed to the second last office on the left, pushing the door open and closing it behind them.
Just when Gao Yang took a steadying breath and looked up, he saw that there was someone inside the office.
“Freeze!”
A man was holding a gun with both hands, aiming at the three of them.
