Miss Mary leaned against the iron wall of the elevator, her petite body shaking constantly.
"What to do? What to do? What to do?"
"what do I do???"
Looking at the dark scene in the elevator, Miss Mary seemed to have turned into the petite doll that was stuffed into the closet by the little girl when she was a child, feeling helpless and flustered.
…………
…………
On the 99th floor of the Richter Hotel, in the luxurious presidential suite.
Lei Hongguang leaned against the head of the bed and answered the phone that had just rang.
"Hello, distinguished guests. We have stopped operating the two elevators leading to the top floor as you instructed." The hotel manager's slightly hoarse voice came out.
"Ok."
"Do you have any other instructions?" asked the hotel manager respectfully.
"Well... it's not good to keep it stopped. It might affect other customers and delay your hotel's business. How about this, you guys put the elevator back to normal use in a while."
"But please check carefully before resuming operations. I suspect there may be some problem with your elevator."
Lei Hongguang said in a calm tone.
"Ah! Okay!"
The hotel manager was actually very surprised by Lei Hongguang's words.
Just now, Lei Hongguang suddenly called her and asked her to stop operating two of the hotel's elevators.
This request is actually very strange and rude.
But after all, he was the distinguished guest that Miss Louisa had repeatedly instructed, and there seemed to be no one else in the elevator at the time, so the hotel manager still ordered people to do so.
Now, Lei Hongguang gave a rather reasonable explanation.
"There's a problem with the elevator? No way, our hotel uses top-of-the-line elevators, and we arrange for people to inspect them every week." The hotel manager shook her head in confusion.
"And this handsome gentleman was clearly in the room, so how did he know there was a problem with the elevator? And he even asked them to stop operating two elevators. When he went up, he probably only took one of them..."
The hotel manager was totally confused and couldn't understand what Lei Hongguang wanted.
If Lei Hongguang asked her to sleep with him directly or called a dozen young and beautiful waitresses to serve him, she would do so immediately.
But Lei Hongguang’s instructions after entering the hotel were too strange.
The instructions to not have anyone on the top floor and to shut down the elevator were quite strange.
But if she didn't do as she was told, Lei Hongguang and Louisa said, it was possible that Louisa, the young lady, would get angry and fire her.
So the female manager of the hotel who didn't want to take this responsibility still followed Lei Hongguang's instructions and found the department of the hotel responsible for maintenance.
"Please check if there is any problem with the two elevators that you were asked to stop operating just now. Some passengers reported that there seemed to be some malfunction in the elevators."
"There shouldn't be any problem. We checked the elevator this morning." said the person in charge of elevator maintenance.
"Just check if I tell you to. The guests have already responded. This is a big issue that concerns their safety!" Unlike his humility and respect in front of Lei Hongguang and Louisa, the hotel manager showed his majesty at the right time.
The employees in charge of elevator maintenance didn't say much and just started checking obediently.
"Hey... it seems like there really is something wrong with one of the elevators. There was clearly no one in it, but it suddenly ran from the first floor to the ninetieth floor..." The person in charge of elevator maintenance checked the background and surveillance and said in surprise.
"Ah? Why don't you repair the elevator quickly! This is a major issue involving personal safety! If any problems occur with the guests, it will be a big disaster!" Hearing the words of the elevator manager, the hotel manager was stunned at first, and then hurriedly said anxiously.
This was indeed a big problem, and the employee responsible for the hotel elevator maintenance did not dare to be negligent and quickly agreed.
"Yamamoto, quickly operate the elevator that is stopped in mid-air down to the bottom floor, and we will check to see what the problem is!"
"Ok!"
……
……
"Wow wow wow... Why did this elevator stop suddenly? Is the power out?!"
Miss Mary squatted in the corner of the elevator, almost crying.
After taking out the haunted cell phone, Miss Mary was thinking about whether to call the police for help, but as an urban ghost, she couldn't do it.
"I can only talk to that damn human named Lei Hongguang now. Do I have to ask him for help to find someone to fix the elevator? Impossible!"
"Wow, it's really dark in here!"
In the pitch-black elevator.
Miss Mary's petite body was trembling constantly under her exquisite Lolita dress.
This closed and dark environment could easily bring back her past traumas.
But fear is unavoidable.
But she still realized that she was no longer the powerless puppet doll, but an urban legend with power even more than ordinary humans.
“I don’t know if this broken elevator just lost power accidentally, or if it was a trick of that strange human, but I can’t just sit here and wait for death. I have to find a way out. At worst, I can just use up some of my original power to get out!”
Miss Mary's slender legs trembled as she thought.
In fact, it’s not impossible for her to go out directly through the wall from the stairs.
As an urban legend, she is normally quite capable of walking through walls.
However, she was also restricted by urban legends. After she set her target on the human Lei Hongguang, she could only find ways to get close to him. If she broke some rules at this time, she might lose some of the original power of the vengeful spirit.
The more you use your original power, the less it will recover, and it will recover very, very slowly.
Originally, Miss Mary didn't want to do that, but now she was trapped in this pitch-dark elevator and she really couldn't hold it anymore.
However, just as Miss Mary was about to take action.
But suddenly another accident happened.
'Rub!'
The lights in the elevator actually came back on, and the electronic screen in the elevator also recovered, as if the power had been restored after a power outage.
The elevator returned to its previous brightly lit state and the air conditioner in the elevator was turned on.
"Eh?! There's a phone call?!"
Miss Mary, who was about to consume her original power, stopped and looked at the elevator with great surprise, which seemed to have completely returned to normal.
"Hehe! I'm glad the elevator is back on! That way I can get back to the ninety-ninth floor and report to that guy... Eh?! Why is the elevator going down?!"
Miss Mary was very happy to see the elevator restored, but soon she discovered that the elevator was actually descending very quickly.
Ninety-fifth floor... ninety-fourth floor... ninety-third floor...
Ninety floors... eighty floors... seventy floors...
"Damn it... why is it always going down?! What's going on?!"
Miss Mary pressed the buttons on the elevator anxiously, and kept pressing the 99th floor button frantically, but the elevator still kept descending. The buttons in the elevator seemed to have become decorations and became useless!
Feeling the elevator going down continuously, Miss Mary was stunned.
She wasn't afraid that the elevator would break down and kill her on its way down. As an urban legend, she couldn't die that easily. And although the elevator seemed to be descending very quickly, it was still relatively steady.
What Miss Mary found hard to accept was that she had climbed to such a high floor with great difficulty.
They have already reached multiple floors and will soon reach the top floor and get close to the target she has been eyeing!
Why is it suddenly going down continuously now?
She doesn't want to climb again!
"There must be something wrong with this elevator!"
Anxious Miss Mary began to press the buttons of the elevator floors in a desperate attempt to find a solution.
……
"There must be something wrong with this elevator. Look, the buttons for many floors of this elevator light up inexplicably!" said the staff member in charge of elevator maintenance to his colleague in the elevator monitoring room.
"Yes, take it down right now and let's inspect it!"
……
Standing in the elevator, Miss Mary, who was entangled by the power of vengeful spirits and invisible to ordinary people, had a look of pain on her face.
Because she tried everything, she could only watch the elevator continue to descend.
Sixty floors... fifty floors... forty floors...
Miss Mary watched in despair as the hotel elevator, which had almost reached the top floor, returned to the same floor where she had gotten on, and was even continuing to descend.
Tired, destroy it.
Miss Mary, who was filled with sorrow and despair, just watched the elevator go down again and again until it finally stopped after a while.
The elevator door slowly opened and Miss Mary opened her eyes.
At this moment, the screen in the elevator clearly displayed '-2 floor'.
Like a broken doll, Miss Mary walked out of the elevator slowly with stiff movements and an expressionless face.
He also ignored the maintenance workers who rushed into the elevator to check.
Only when I heard one of the maintenance staff say, "This elevator seems to have a real problem. It's moving randomly. Let's temporarily stop the elevators in these buildings."
When Miss Mary heard these words, her body trembled violently.
She walked in the underground parking lot for a long time with a deathly pale face before she took out the supernatural cell phone and made a call.
"Hello, I'm Miss Mary. I'm on the second floor below ground now, woo woo woo woo woo ..."
An inexplicable feeling of grievance surged in her heart, and Miss Mary couldn't help but sob a few times.
"Pfft..."
A strong sarcastic laugh came from the other end of the phone.
Miss Mary was stunned for a moment, then became furious, "Damn human, what are you laughing at!"
"Sorry, I thought of something funny. Why haven't you reached me yet? Are you so slow?" The boy's voice came out calmly.
