Chapter 211 After the power outage
Chapter 211 After the power outage
Darkness suddenly enveloped the entire room. Only the phone screen was still lit. Xia An was startled:
"What's going on? Power outage? Is there any mistake?"
Xia An stood up and opened the door using the light of his mobile phone's flashlight. The corridor was dark, with only the emergency lighting emitting a faint light above his head.
Many people from other rooms also came out to check the situation. Now the entire corridor was noisy, and one or two hotel staff were trying their best to calm the guests.
It looked like the entire building was out of power.
Xia An turned on her phone thoughtfully and clicked on GA's large group. There was already a commotion inside.
Ojiang: "Let me go. There is a power outage in such a big hotel. Is this wrong?"
Lost: "The air conditioner and heating are gone. It's so cold."
Xiaosong: "I'm going to freeze to death, brothers, hurry up and get under the covers!"
Two minutes passed.
Lin Ling: "The hotel staff said that the heavy snow caused a problem with the nearby lines, causing a temporary power outage. It took about an hour or two to repair. The room should be quite cold now, right? Everyone should either get in bed or wear thicker clothes to be careful of catching a cold. .”
Ojiang: "Sister Ling, why did you get the news so quickly? The captain is also asking now, but the staff upstairs don't know anything about it!"
Lin Ling: "I'm not upstairs. I just decided to go out for a late-night snack. The surrounding buildings suddenly became dark. I came back to ask the front desk. I guess you guys will know about it soon. By the way, you all just stay calm. There will be a competition tomorrow. Well, please pay attention. Sister, I want to continue to go out and enjoy the wonderful nightlife!"
Ojiang: "Sister Ling, as a united and friendly team, I have only one request for you... Can you bring me some skewers when you come back?"
Xiaosong: "I want it too, I want it too! Give me two skewers of extra spicy crispy bones!"
Lin Ling: "Okay, okay, I'll bring it back to you!"
Xiaosong: "Okay, Sister Ling is waiting for you (showing your feelings)."
After looking through the words in the group, Xia An didn't say anything more and returned to his room with a smile.
Although it was an emergency, it had little impact on everyone, so he was relieved.
Xia An returned to the room and continued to watch the game between MS and Er. Xiaosong and Mi Shen also shivered in the dark and shrank into bed. They were night owls originally, and they couldn't sleep when the power went out, so they hid in bed and played. Ranking.
Dajiang and Buzhou were there. Dajiang had just finished chatting in the group, and Buzhou also returned to the room from the corridor.
Dajiang stared happily at the phone screen and asked Buzhou if he wanted any late-night snacks. He could ask Sister Ling to bring them to him.
Bu Zhouchao sat on the sofa and took out his mobile phone to read the messages in the group. After browsing, he was a little confused:
"Why is there no news about Xiaole?"
"Go to sleep, it's past 11 o'clock now."
In the dim light of the mobile phone, Dajiang sat on the bed, rubbed his hands, and took a breath of white air.
"Actually, it's better to go to bed in advance. The bed is definitely warm now. Even if the air conditioner is turned off, it won't have any impact. But we just went to take a shower. It's still cold inside the bed and we don't want to go in. Captain , how about we go together tonight..."
"I go out for a while."
Before Dajiang could say "sleep", Buzhou suddenly stood up, turned on the flashlight on his cell phone, and strode out of the room.
With a bang, the door closed, and the room fell into silence.
Dajiang was stunned for a moment, and then a look of tears appeared on his face:
"Captain...if you want to refuse, just say so. It makes me feel embarrassed to just leave like this..."
After leaving the room, Buzhou walked to Li Anle's room and called her at the same time.
He didn't believe anything Ojiang said.
Professional e-sports players are basically night owls. Sometimes they will review games until two or three in the morning, and their bedtime is basically after 12 o'clock.
Li Anle was no exception. He sent her messages many times around 12 o'clock, and it was impossible for her to go to bed so early.
But there was no response from her side during the sudden power outage. He couldn't help but worry about what happened to her.
beep - beep - beep -
The phone was not picked up right away, and Lao Gao was worried.
Just when he thought something had really happened to her and was a little anxious, the phone was suddenly picked up.
"Hello? Captain?"
Li Anle's familiar voice appeared in his ears, and Bu Zhou's worried heart relaxed slightly.
"There's a power outage. Is there anything you can do over there?"
"No, it just turned dark suddenly and made me panic a little."
"I remember that you were afraid of being alone in a strange dark environment. How are you now? Are you afraid?"
Li Anle on the other end of the receiver smiled.
"I was scared just now, but now I'm fine. I'm not scared at all when I hear the captain's voice."
"...You do know how to talk."
Bu Zhou raised his lips and smiled when he heard what Li Anle said.
"Then what are you doing now?"
"Well... I'm looking at my phone in bed. It's cold outside."
"It's true, it's really cold outside. Just stay in bed and don't move around. Do you hear me?"
"Received, received, captain, since when have you become such a mother-in-law?"
"..."
The two chatted for a few more words, then decided to hang up the phone.
"That's it...remember to call me if anything happens."
"Okay...ah sneeze!"
Standing at the door of Li Anle's room, he was about to hang up the phone and walk back, when Li Anle's sneeze rang the alarm bell in his heart.
"you are sick?"
"No... maybe it's a little cold in the room and I got a little irritated. It's okay. Captain, I'll hang up first... Ah Sneeze!"
Li Anle sneezed several more times. Bu Zhou was about to ask her what was going on, but Li Anle hung up the phone.
"..."
Something was wrong, something especially wrong, and the worry in Bu Zhou's heart came to him again.
Without any hesitation, he immediately dialed Li Anle's phone number again.
This time Li Anle answered quickly.
"Captain...I'm really fine..."
Li Anle's voice was weird, like he was pinching his nose.
Bu Zhou felt nervous and spoke directly:
"Open the door."
"what?"
In the room, Li Anle, who was fumbling with paper to blow his nose in the dark, panicked when he heard what Bu Zhou said.
"Captain, are you at... the door?"
"Yeah. Open the door."
There was no emotion in Buzhou's voice, but the almost non-negotiable tone made Li Anle panic.
She still wants to struggle.
"Captain...I'm really fine..."
Her voice was cautious and pleading,
"You'd better go back..."
Perhaps he sensed that Li Anle was in a bad mood, Bu Zhou's voice on the other end of the phone became much softer:
"Anle, if you don't want me to worry, just open the door and let me make sure you're okay."
He called her name for the first time, under these circumstances.
Li Anle felt mixed emotions for a while.
Finally touching the paper, she took out a piece of paper and covered her nose. She held the phone in her other hand and slowly walked to the door.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she hung up the phone and reached out to gently open the door a crack.
Buzhou outside the door was anxious when he heard the phone was hung up, when he heard the door open.
He quickly raised his head and looked towards Li Anle.
But when he saw Li Anle clearly through the crack in the door and the faint light in the corridor, he was stunned.
"What...what's going on with you?"
