My Cell Prison - Chapter 312 - Chapter 312: Chapter 312: Upstairs
Chapter 312: Chapter 312: Upstairs
When encountering the elevator lady who appears to have neglected her nails for years,
Swish! Mia immediately draws the demon blade she carries on her back…
“Stop…”
Han Dong quickly stepped forward to hold back Mia’s impulsive actions.
Little Demon Eye can see ‘aura’.
Unlike the security guards or the man whose head was caught in the elevator, this woman’s aura seems to be connected to all four elevators in the office building.
It appears that she is the [Elevator Operator] of this building, her existence closely tied to it.
After her death, one of two things might happen.
First, the elevator may become unusable, and people would have to find a more challenging way to ascend.
Second, this elevator lady could potentially resurrect herself through the elevator, causing all strange occurrences in the building to wage war on Han Dong’s group.
Negotiation.
Han Dong tries to engage this lady in a conversation.
“Hello.”
The elevator lady doesn’t respond but only flashes a small smile and introduces herself with a slight curtsy.
“Shouldn’t there be other ‘guests’ in your building tonight?” Han Dong asked, observing the woman intently.
He noticed a slight twitch in her eyelid, and a small tremor in her untrimmed nails.
Such subtle movements indirectly answered Han Dong’s question. Clearly, there were indeed others in the building who didn’t belong here. Most likely, they were the entities involved in the S Level story – Abyssal Public Toilet.
Han Dong immediately pursued further: “Could you help us meet the building owner? We want to discuss matters concerning the bathroom on the 13th floor.”
“Sir, if you could just wait.” For the first time, the elevator operator responded and then melded her body into the elevator, ascending to the top floor as if to report Han Dong’s request to her superior.
Abe immediately stepped forward to inquire quietly.
“Nicholas, are you suggesting we should establish relations with the strange story inside this building?”
“Since the office building tolerates the [Abyssal Public Toilet] frequently occupying one of its storeys, this indicates that the building’s strange story is rational to some degree. However, we can’t assume that the office building poses no threat,” Han Dong softly explained.
If we went directly to the public toilet to deal with the S level strange story… After resolving it, we’re likely to be overly exhausted, with one or two of us even ending up severely injured. At that time, this office building might seize the opportunity to ambush us. Consequently, it’s essential to build an interest relationship in advance to ensure safety.”
Abe asked again, “Why don’t we wait? In another hour, the public toilet will move… We just have to follow the clues to the next location instead of taking the risk in the office building, right?”
“In itself, this neutral office building is a ‘double-edged sword’. If used well, it can help us deal with the guy in the toilet. Let’s try talking first… If it doesn’t work out, we’ll proceed as you suggested, and go to another public toilet.”
“Okay.”
Before long, as the elevator began to descend, the elevator lady was waving at Han Dong with a ‘friendly’ smile, while blocking the others from entering the elevator.
“The boss said he only wants to meet you… Please have everyone else wait downstairs.”
At this moment,
A group of receptionists with corpse makeup appeared in the office lobby. They invited Abe and the others to rest while they wait, with dark tea containing strands of hair already prepared for them.
“Alright, you guys wait for me here.”
Although Han Dong reassured his teammates verbally, he secretly handed a tiny spider to Mia, hiding it in his pocket…
Ding… Dong…
As the elevator reached the top floor,
A corresponding system prompt appeared in Han Dong’s mind.
「Strange Tale – Corpse Building」
“A+ Level? That’s the same as the [General Mansion]… But since this place isn’t at S level, so it’s naturally not a match for the one in the toilet with the electric saw.”
Han Dong smiled, having already devised several strategies for how to converse with the other party.
He was met with traditional Dongying décor on the top floor, and as the paper doors slid open,
A voluptuous woman with elaborate corpse makeup sitting behind a desk, looked at Han Dong with an unusual interest flashing in her eyes.
“Mia, is your spider detecting anything? The vice-captain isn’t in danger on the top floor, is he?” Winry had been incredibly tense since they set foot in this place, and she was worried about Han Dong, now on his own at the top.
“What could possibly happen to him… Don’t worry.” Given the control Han Dong seemed to have over the red lady and the bald man, Mia wasn’t worried about his safety. Besides, Han Dong was reasonably good at dealing with negotiations.
About half an hour later.
The beautiful elevator lady waved at Mia and the others.
“Please come here. The gentleman who just went up has finished talking to our boss… He is waiting for you on the 13th floor.”
“Okay.”
As the elevator slowly ascended, about to hit the 13th floor,
The operator, who had been near the elevator buttons, instinctively backed off… seemingly terrified of this floor.
Ding… Dong….
The elevator doors opened to reveal Han Dong sitting alone at a vacant office desk on the deserted 13th floor, leisurely awaiting their arrival.
“We’re at the 13th floor.”
As Mia and the others stepped off the elevator one by one,
Han Dong glanced over at the elevator lady who was hiding in the corner of the elevator.
“Miss, your boss asked you to briefly introduce us to the ‘Thirteenth Floor’ and lead us to the bathroom entrance.”
At Han Dong’s words,
The elevator lady, with long, unkept nails and intricate corpse makeup, immediately collapsed to the ground in the corner of the elevator, crying her eyes out.
“Waaaah! I… I’m scared.”
“You really are ruining the image of a ghost…” Han Dong couldn’t help but retort.
The elevator lady cried even harder, wiping her tears and mumbling: “No… Many of my colleagues have died on this floor. Even my predecessor who worked the elevator stayed on the 13th floor for a while and got taken away! I would rather die than go there…”
“Aren’t you already dead? Also, is there a difference between dying now and dying later?”
“It’s different… If you’re caught by something in the bathroom on the 13th floor, you’ll never be able to come back.”
“Is that so?”
Han Dong rose and walked towards the cowering elevator lady.
He then did something unexpected.
The G arm revealed its true form, fiercely grabbing the woman’s right arm, putting pressure on her shoulder… and pulling hard.
Swoosh!
The arm was forcefully separated.
Immediately after, Han Dong took out a strange arm from an unknown location.
The aura emanating from the surface of the arm made not only the elevator lady curl up in fear, but also made the squad members instinctively back away.
「Clown’s arm」
Slap!
When Han Dong tried to graft the Clown’s arm onto the woman’s wound,
Creak… Creak…!!
Thin lines attached to balloons and something like the hairs of a grasshopper came out of the flesh of the Clown’s arm, grafting the new arm in place forcefully.
