The sharp blade easily cut through the skin. The warm blood fell on the cold steel. Red and white mixed together. The security member who stopped Liu Yi couldn’t dare to speak anymore. He felt like Liu Yi would cut his neck at any moment. He could see his blood squirting out of his neck.

“Continue. I’m listening.” No one knew what was hidden inside Liu Yi’s blade. Once one was touched by it, one’s soul would tremble. The security member shook his hands with a grimace. He didn’t dare to make any sound.

“I used to love debate in court. However, I found a simpler way to get the other party to see my point.” Liu Yu lifted the blade and looked at the man, “Don’t you agree?”

The man shook his head. He turned to Yuan Hui and Zuo Jun. He was really scared. The files said that Liu Yi was a kind and poor lawyer who specialised in representing the disenfranchised. However, that was not the woman who was threatening his life at that moment.

Liu Yi put away the blade. Liu Yi walked back to Fan Li’s side. No one dared to stop her this time. “Back to the first floor.”

The surrounding security members hated and feared Liu Yi. They planned to tail Liu Yi under Yuan Hui’s signal, but Zuo Jun stopped them. Compared to Liu Yi, Zou Jun was more concerned about the painter Gao Ming and Wan Jie. He desperately wanted to know why there were two Gao Mings in the building. The clock in the wall moved. Soon, only a pool of black water and several corpses remained in the lobby.

“Unfortunately, we fail to snatch the corpse back.” The kind Gao Ming’s group followed Liu Yi back to the first floor. Liu Yi, who wore the red student council badge, seemed to know many secrets about this building. She didn’t avoid the others. She headed to the room at the centre of the first floor. After killing Past, the door that had the door sign of Past changed. The original pattern on the door faded until it almost disappeared. The door also gained many new cracks. However, as time passed, the cracks would close on their own.

“The twisted faith of God on this door has been eliminated. God can’t intervene any longer. Now, you can attempt to open this door and see what God has hidden behind it.” Liu Yi’s cold voice echoed in the corridor. Those who followed her could hear it clearly. No one came forth, so she continued, “The exit might be behind this door. Push it open, and you can leave this anomaly.”

“You make it sound so wonderful. Then, why don’t you open it?”

“That’s right. This woman was so vicious earlier. Class 13 is filled with barbarians!”

“Leave... Shall I give it a try?”

“Ol’ Sun, have you lost your mind?”

Among the crowd, a horror game player walked out holding his box. He looked around forty. He was in a construction site outfit and boots. His body was strong, but he looked tired.No?v(el)B\\jnn

Seeing how easily she agreed, the leader of Team One felt that he had been tricked. The box that she held was probably not hers. She probably grabbed it from someone else.

The leader of Team One adjusted his breathing and stopped wasting time. He shook the box to ensure that there was something inside before shoving it through the hole in the door. The strange sound came from the lock. Once the leader of Team One opened the door, he slipped through it.

The door closed heavily. Silence reigned in the corridor. Only light heartbeats and uneven breathing could be heard. The normal and kind Gao Mings were worried. After their brief time together, they knew that the leader of Team One was a good person.

Five minutes passed, and Liu Yi frowned. The leader of Team One should be the strongest individual there. Even after his ghost tattoo had been taken away, he should still be able to handle himself.

Ten minutes later, more and more people felt uneasy. The voice-sensitive lights started to act up again. Future seemed to be approaching.

Twenty minutes later, as just Liu Yi planned to give up, there came a series of knocking!

“It’s from behind the door!” Everyone turned to look at the door. The quick knocking relayed how anxious the person inside the door was.

“Save them!” At that moment, Doctor Lee didn’t have that many reservations. He shoved his box through the hole in the door. The door flew open, and the bloody leader of Team One fell out.

“Close the door!”

The leader of Team One was the first person to exit the door alive. Everyone wanted to know what was behind it.

“What happened? Who injured you?” Doctor Lee wanted to stop the bleeding, but he couldn’t find any wounds on the man.

“There’s no exit behind the door. It’s a dead-end...”
