I Killed You

After sending the personnel down, Tom followed the mobilization team back to the safety staircase and began climbing layer by layer.

Three armored awakeners and ten soldiers carried canvas rolls, engines, and battery modules as they climbed up the top of the stairs. One end of the canvas roll was fixed, while the other end was lowered along with the hemp rope on the engine. The soldiers held weapons and were responsible for guarding.

The person below straightened and fixed the other end of the canvas roll, then tied a strong hemp rope to the front of the cart. The cart climbed up the steep canvas ramp with the help of the engine at the other end of the hemp rope.

It takes a lot of time for each large car to climb a section of stairs, but for the safety and efficiency of going upstairs, even if it's troublesome, they have to do it.

The massive amount of food, ammunition, and crystals, without the loading of the vehicle, will seriously affect the actions of soldiers, let alone the fact that the previous floor is really large for today's miniature people.

There are two flights of stairs climbing from one floor to another. In order to improve efficiency, Tom divided the drag group into two groups. Each group is responsible for a section of stairs, alternating between them. One group is responsible for the first step, and two groups are responsible for the second step.

After completing the installation of the canvas ramp and the placement of thick ropes in Group 1, the first vehicle towed up is the one loaded with canvas rolls. They will follow this vehicle up to the second stage of stairs laid in Group 2, and then continue to carry the canvas rolls, as well as the third set of engines and battery packs, up the first stage of stairs on the new floor. The person in charge of the last vehicle in the fleet is responsible for dismantling the engine and battery module on the first staircase of the old floor for the next cycle of use.

There are four sets of engine and battery modules in total, alternating between them can greatly improve efficiency.

However, for safety reasons, Tom, as the captain, took the lead and was responsible for two groups. Group 2 is the group that climbs to the new floor, which also means that if there is danger on the next floor, they will be the first to encounter.

At first, everything went smoothly. They climbed four floors and it took them over an hour, and the hallway posed no other threat except for their busy voices.

But on the 15th floor, halfway through the work, Tom's old acquaintance, the mutated soldier ant, came knocking on his door.

This type of black ant, which is slightly taller than humans, has a sharp chewing mouthpiece that can easily cut a person's waist in two. At this point, three armored awakeners come in handy. Tom led them to block the front and fought for a shooting environment for the soldiers behind, easily eliminating a wave.

However, they deliberately missed out on five and were restrained by two armored awakeners. At this point, it was Tom's turn to showcase his expertise.

Thanks to his spiritual communication with a queen ant suspected of having a second level mutation, Tom successfully mastered how to simulate pheromones within the ant's body. By using different types of pheromones, ants can execute different commands.

So their team finally had five more coolies, which could greatly accelerate the efficiency of material transportation.

The addition of five mutated soldier ants immediately liberated four armored awakeners from two groups, and they could finally take on the task of combat defense.

Soon, a new creature, a mutated cockroach, crawled in under the safety door on the 15th floor. It seems that their movements have finally attracted the mutated creatures on this floor. Tom decided to park several large cars here and set up defensive positions on the spot, striving to eliminate these threatening creatures in one go, so as not to be ambushed by them from behind halfway up.

The battle lasted intermittently for over half an hour, and there was no further movement afterwards. To ensure safety, Tom opened the safety door and personally walked around the hallway on the 15th floor with four soldiers, and there were indeed no biological attacks on them.

And he also discovered an unexpected situation, where the doors of six guest rooms were open, which is likely because the guests inside managed to unlock the doors and run out.

The car took a stroll inside and indeed found some traces left by the activities of small people, such as cut cloth scraps, packaging bags for candy cookies, and so on.

This greatly increased Tom's confidence in finding survivors, and perhaps his sister Luo Xuan was also among them, after all, her sister was clever from a young age.

Then he returned to the stairwell, and the team had climbed to the 16th floor.

So he left the team again, just to take a look at his sister's room in 1602.

Ouyang Haotian proposed to send someone to follow, but Tom refused. This is his personal matter and there is no need to disperse his manpower. The higher up, the more insects seem to be, the more they need to be careful.

Tom drove a specially modified electric car to Room 1602 and looked at the tall door, his heart beating with a thud. He wanted to see his sister behind this door, but was afraid of seeing her body, which made him hesitate a bit. In the end, he jumped out of the car, and the tram, wearing the armor of the Awakener, which could still be driven, walked to the door.

Watching the closed door being gently pushed open by him.

This indicates that the door lock has been pulled up and the door is open.

Tom breathed a sigh, at least his sister could open the door, and most likely she had already left here.

But since you're here, you naturally need to come in and take a look. After pushing open the door, he jumped onto the tram and drove into room 1602.

A very standard suite layout, Tom drove straight to the bedroom, then took off the worker ant armor, reduced the burden, and was able to jump onto a bed over 60 centimeters high.

The micro scale disaster occurred at 2 a.m., and most people were sleeping in bed. After being shrunk, the pajamas worn naturally remain in place.

Unfortunately, this bed is clean, without any blankets, and there are no traces of anyone sleeping on it.

This made Tom feel a bit uneasy.

"No, she might have gone out to play at night, so she didn't come back," Tom shook his head and explained to himself. But soon, he overturned this inference.

Because the door of room 1602 was opened from the inside by someone, the pulled lock indicates that the person opening the door deliberately kept it open for easy access.

Tom stood on the bed and looked around, finally discovering a pink suitcase by the wall next to the window.

His heart beats faster again, and his sister has loved pink since she was young. Of course, many girls also like pink, and as they grow up, their preferences may change and they become more interested in other colors.

Tom jumped out of bed, ran quickly to the suitcase, and then jumped up.

The suitcase is locked with a zipper and a three digit physical password lock.

621, Tom tried this password. It's my sister's birthday.

Not right.

319, the day my foster parents passed away in a car accident.

It's still not right.

503, the day Tom was adopted by his foster parents.

It's not right either.

Now Tom has no choice.

It is easy to unlock the metal zipper with a password lock, as it has the ability to shape metal. Simply open the metal zipper. But guessing the password itself is a clue to verify whether the box is sister's, so he has to try.

He didn't want to give up, and then came up with another number.

124, he pressed the button and the zipper was released with a snap.

Tom's cold hair stood up all over his body, tears streaming out of his eyes in an instant.

"It's Xiaoxuan, really Xiaoxuan!"

Tom held the cold metal zipper with trembling hands, tears streaming down his cheeks and onto the large HW logo on his chest. This outfit is the standard combat uniform for the shelter, with a triangular shape and HW as the emblem of the shelter.

HW is the pinyin abbreviation for Haiwei.

On January 24th, 124 was January 24th, and he bid farewell to the familiar house, leaving behind his sister and her uncle. He embarked on a wandering and survival journey alone, carrying a hundred yuan.

He was 10 years old that year, and on that day, the weather was very cold.

Excited Tom grabbed the zipper and pulled it open, then pulled it down and jumped down.

Hiss la la la... The zipper on the entire side of the suitcase has been pulled open.

He returned to the car, picked up a flashlight, and returned to the suitcase again.

A few changed clothes, a yellow furry bear, very simple thing.

Tom knew this little bear, and the day before he left, he bought it for his sister with the only twenty yuan left in his pocket.

More than a decade has passed, and the entire bear has turned white from washing, with its fur becoming incredibly dry and hard.

If the password 124 is just a coincidence, then the little bear in front of us is conclusive evidence that Luo Xuan, the owner of this room, is the sister of his adoptive parents. From a social perspective, he is the only family member in this world that is most worthy of concern.

Tom watched the teddy bear for a whole five minutes before crawling out. He tore off a strip of cloth from the curtain, tied it to the zipper, jumped up, pulled the zipper back to the password lock and fastened it, causing the password to be messed up.

"Xiaoxuan, where will you be?" Tom looked around and couldn't find anything else that didn't belong to the hotel. It seems that my sister's luggage here is very simple, just a password suitcase.

He jumped off the password box and decided to leave, after all, his sister might have gone to another room or climbed up to the Japanese restaurant on the rooftop. He needs to push the team to the rooftop as soon as possible so that he can see his sister in the restaurant.

However, before he could take two steps, he suddenly had cold hair all over his body, feeling like something was staring at him from behind. He turned around and saw a black kitten crouching behind the curtain, with two eyes gazing at him with a hint of melancholy.

"Meow..." The black cat let out a cry and its eyes lit up with red light.

Tom suddenly sweated profusely and his heart quickened.

This is a mutated black cat.

He faced the black cat and cautiously stepped back, hoping to return to the side of the worker ant armor.

At this time, although he was carrying a dark red red crystal with him, it was level three and his protection was not sufficient. Faced with a mutated black cat, he cannot withstand it.

He just took two steps back, the black cat meowed and leaped, landing behind him, blocking his retreat horizontally.

Why is there a cat in my sister's suite?

Tom looked around carefully and saw a pet box under the bed.

If a guest stays in a hotel with a pet, there will be a special note on the hotel's guest list, which he remembers states that she stays alone without a pet.

Trolley box?

Tom turned around and found that the suitcase was just enough to fit this very small pet case. Because this cat is not very large in size, it can definitely be packed in a box.

But... how did this cat mutate?

Tom immediately thought of a possibility and was filled with anger.

"Damn it! Damn it! I'll kill you!"
