Trembling At A High Altitude

Chapter 9



Chapter 9 Footsteps in the wax museum

There are no clerk in the bath center, only ticket vending machines.

The walls are the same as restaurants and clothing stores, with wall clocks and LCD screen countdowns.

The cheapest bath ticket only provides hot water, bath towels and a small piece of soap. It is limited to ten minutes and only requires one point.

After swiping the card, Li Teng got a coin carved with a strange pattern.

He took the coin and entered the dressing room. After taking off his clothes, Li Teng went to the bathroom inside.

The bathroom is a closed bathroom with one compartment.

Put a coin into the coin-operated device in one of the bathrooms, and the door of that bathroom will automatically open.

The bathroom is a shower, only two square meters in size, with a ten-minute countdown on the screen on the top of the wall.

After ten minutes, regardless of whether Li Teng took a shower or not, he would be forcibly expelled.

It is very troublesome for women to take a bath. Generally speaking, it is not an hour to wash it out.

It’s different for men like Li Teng.

It can be done in five minutes.

Get wet for half a minute, apply soap for one minute, rub for one minute, and rinse off for half a minute.

There is one minute to wipe off the body with a bath towel.

Li Teng took a total of five minutes to finish the shower, and then it took another five minutes to soap the dirty pajamas and quickly rub a few hands, and everything was done in ten minutes.

Before the ten-minute countdown ended, Li Teng had already returned to the dressing room and put on the clean clothes and socks just bought from the clothing store.

After eating and drinking, taking a shower and changing into new clothes, Li Teng is now refreshed, and he is very different from him who was very weak on the top of the stone pillar in the morning.

What is this place?

Free plastic bags were provided in the locker room. Li Teng put the pajamas that had just been washed into the plastic bag, and then he returned to the street.

There is still no one on the street.

Everywhere is extremely quiet, as quiet as a dead city.

However, restaurants, clothing stores and bathing centers are still operating normally, making Li Teng feel that it must not be a dead city.

It’s a pity that I can’t find a public phone, and there’s nowhere to borrow a cell phone. Otherwise, Li Teng would definitely call the police first and tell the police what he had encountered, let them locate him, take him home, and then Find out what organization hijacked him to the top of the stone pillar.

For today’s plan, let’s find a living person on this street first.

There is a public toilet opposite the bathing center. Li Teng drank a lot of drinks and ate a lot of food, but he needed to solve it.

The toilets are clean and well decorated.

Dryers and toilet paper are all available.

There is no one inside.

While solving the problem in the grid, Li Teng heard footsteps on the street outside.

Is there a living person passing by?

After Li Teng solved the problem, he rushed to the street outside.

But the street outside was still empty.

If someone passed by just now, they should have gone to the front corner.

Li Teng hurriedly pursued it.

Sure enough, after turning the corner, Li Teng saw two living people.

Two beautiful welcoming ladies are standing at the door of a store with a smile.

The store door behind them was very large and concealed. There was no sign outside the store door, and I didn’t know what it was operating inside.

Li Teng walked over quickly, ready to ask the two welcome ladies, or borrow a mobile phone from them, or make a phone call.

After arriving in front of the two welcome ladies, Li Teng was stunned.

The two welcoming ladies looked no different from real people, and their faces were ruddy. However, they stood still without moving.

If you distinguish them carefully, Li Teng feels that they are not welcome ladies.

Although the clothes worn by the two are all red, the specific styles are quite different.

And it’s not the kind of dress worn by the welcome lady, it’s more like the fashion worn by street pedestrians.

They are only smiling, not the kind of welcome smile of Miss Welcome.

It feels like two passing women are standing here for a photo.

“Two beauties, you are not playing the game of wooden people, are you?”

Li Teng tried to ask the two women.

The two remained motionless, but the weird smile continued to appear on their faces.

Seeing that they didn’t respond to what he said and didn’t move, Li Teng tried to reach out and touch it.

“Is it a wax figure?” Li Teng frowned.

Is this a wax museum?

Li Teng took a few steps back, and then took a closer look at the outer wall of the store.

There are no signs, and there are no words like a wax museum.

At this moment, there was another faint sound of footsteps in the store.

“Anyone?” Li Teng hurriedly rushed forward and shouted to the store.

No one responded, but the footsteps stopped.

There are people inside!

Without saying anything, Li Teng stretched out his hand and pushed open the shop door that was hidden behind the second woman and rushed into the shop.

After rushing in to see everything inside, Li Teng was immediately shocked and settled in place.

Inside is a hall, which looks more than two hundred square meters, and a reception is being held.

In the hall of more than two hundred square meters, there are at least number five or sixty guests.

Everyone looked at Li Teng at the door of the hall with a smile, some of them were still holding wine glasses.

However, the hall is very quiet.

It was so quiet that Li Teng could only hear his own breathing.

Everyone in the hall remained motionless in a certain posture.

It’s like… a photo, or in other words, time has suddenly stagnated at this moment.

“Are there any living people?”

After a while, Li Teng calmed down and asked in the hall.

He heard footsteps just now, indicating that there are indeed living people hiding in it.

If you can find the living person, maybe you can solve many of his questions.

No one responded, everyone continued to look at Li Teng with a weird smile.

Of course, they were not looking at Li Teng, but at the direction of the hall door.

Because when Li Teng walked toward the depths of the hall, their eyes did not follow Li Teng.

This shows that all of them are just motionless wax figures.

The details of the wax figure production are too real, and are almost indistinguishable from the real person standing still. This makes it difficult for Li Teng to find the person who just made the footsteps.

“I’m just passing by, I’m not malicious.”

“I don’t know how I got here.”

“I hope the insider can stand up and tell me what is going on.”

“If you don’t come out, I can only use some extraordinary means.”

Li Teng yelled a few more times in the hall, touched the wax figure next to him, and after hesitating for a while, he took a fork from the dining table and plunged it into the eye of the wax figure nearby.

If a living person really wants to hide in these wax figures, he can only use this method to force him to show up.

“by!”

After the fork in Li Teng’s hand touched the wax figure, there was a sound of metal clashing. Several prongs bend instantly, and Li Teng’s arm holding the fork was numb.

The wax figure was unscathed.

Is this a wax figure?

Is there such a hard wax figure?

“You guys continue the cocktail party, I’m just passing by, I’ll look elsewhere.”

Li Teng shook his head and turned around to leave the hall door.

It’s too weird here, and it also means unknown danger.

Just now Li Teng was not compelled, and did not want to make an offensive move.

Once it is done, be prepared for revenge by these wax figures.

Li Teng no longer thinks that these wax figures are dead, and he doesn’t know what they are.

But it feels like something he can’t afford.

When Li Teng turned around to leave, he was shocked again.
