Wasteland Code Survival Chapter 782: hospital
The ringing of the phone is clearly directed at Qi Lin-this office building is a standard low-rent housing, with thin intervals between floors. With Qi Lin's hearing, he can naturally tell that there is no upstairs or downstairs. The phone rang, only on this floor, when he just approached this room, the phone rang.
This is really weird and a bit too much, okay!
However, when the crappy routines in the domestically produced inferior horror films were actually performed in reality, Qi Lin couldn't laugh anymore.
Is it the ghost of the mastermind again?
Qi Lin subconsciously raised his head and looked towards the end of the corridor... But he forgot one thing. Although this office building is very high, it is a low-rent low-quality building that can be found in the corridors of every floor. A bottle of fire extinguisher in the fire cabinet is already very good. As for surveillance cameras, I'm sorry that there is no such thing.
There are only two surveillance cameras installed in the front door and lobby corner, but those two cameras have long been scrapped.
This call...is it answered or not?
Qi Lin stood outside the door of this real estate agency for more than a minute, but the phone ringing never stopped...
According to the rules of the old China Telecom operators, generally speaking, if the call is still unanswered after 60 seconds, it will be automatically hung up, and the person making the call will also hear the familiar sentence. English bilingual mechanical sound "I'm sorry that the user you dialed is temporarily unanswered, please dial later..."
However, the sudden ringing of "the bell in the middle of the night" does not seem to be subject to this restriction. It is almost two minutes now, where is the "ringing bell" kept ringing.
But it's also right...Where are there any communication operators now...and this call was not made by conventional means at all!
Taking a deep breath, Qi Lin pushed open the door of this "Xinda Real Estate Agency Co., Ltd." and walked in...
The room is very messy. There are a total of six desks, two of which are turned on the ground. The small coffee table is full of various messy contracts, documents and flyers. The ground is also full of waste paper and garbage. .
It was a red phone, covered with a thick layer of dust, placed on the innermost table--at this moment, there was no door to block the sound, and the phone's ringing became more harsh.
Qi Lin walked over and looked at the screen on the phone-although the small LCD screen was dirty, it showed no signs of damage, and it could still emit a faint yellow-green backlight.
Qi Lin is not in a hurry to answer the phone, he wants to see what the number is.
But when he cast his gaze on the phone display, he couldn't help but scolded himself a "idiot" in his heart-"Caller ID" is a value-added service belonging to the communication operator, not the phone Since the phone comes with it, there are no telecommunications operators on the wasteland, so naturally there is no caller ID.
There is no number on the display, only a long series of asterisks.
Qi Lin took a look at the date and time on the phone display. This is a feature that most phones come with. The date displayed was January 1, 1900 at 0:3.
At 0:00 on January 1, 1900, this is the initial time of most electronic perpetual calendars on the market in the old age. When the electronic perpetual calendar is powered off for too long, it will be reset to this initial time when it is turned on again.
In other words, this telephone was actually turned on after Qi Lin stepped onto this floor...
Qi Lin looked along the line behind the phone, and he suddenly found that the phone cord of the phone was unplugged, but the power plug was still plugged into a somewhat aging patch panel.
The plug of the terminal block is plugged into a socket in the corner of the wall.
When entering this office building, Qi Lin had already tried to turn on the light switch, but the light did not turn on, which means that the building was in a state of power failure.
Since the power is off, why does the phone ring? !
Although there may be a battery inside the phone, but with the quality of this civilian-grade battery, if it is not removed from the phone, after three years, no leakage is considered good, let alone the phone can be turned on Up.
Qi Lin seemed to remember something, turned around and walked to the door, and pressed the two switches next to the door frame-with a "click", nothing happened, the light did not turn on, and the ventilation fan did not start rotating .
Next, he picked up the phones on the other tables, but these phones couldn't be activated at all, only the one in the corner was still ringing.
Qi Lin now has two options, one, answer the phone, and second, unplug the wire.
He can basically be sure that the phone’s power source comes from a certain circuit inside the building. Unplugging the wire will definitely make the phone quiet, but if he does this, will he miss something important... …
After measuring left and right, Qi Lin gently pressed the dusty hands-free button on the phone.
Although he was prepared for a long time, when the harsh buzzing sound came from the loudspeaker~IndoMTL.com~ Qi Lin still felt that the eardrum was shocked in a dull pain.
"Rely...Why is this again?!"
This beep is almost exactly the same as the distress signal received by the radio before...No, it’s not the same, it’s not the same. The distress signal has only three characters, two of which are repeated, and you can tell it by listening. But now the frequency changes in this beep sound are much more complicated!
This is a brand new frequency, not the previous international distress signal!
Struggling to endure the discomfort of vomiting, Qi Lin immediately raised the speed of the energy gathering vortex, silently analyzing the information hidden in the buzzing sound.
Four dot signals, this is the letter "h";
Three long signals, this is "o";
Three dot signals, this is "s"......
The first three letters and "sos" are only one point signal away. No wonder Qi Lin thought it was the strange distress signal at first.
The fourth letter is a long dot, this is "p";
The fifth letter is two short dots, "i";
The sixth letter has only one long signal, "t";
The seventh one, one point and one long, this is "a";
The eighth one is a little bit longer. This is "l", which is also the last letter in this Morse code.
The frequency of this beeping sound is that these eight letters are repeated continuously, and if these eight letters are connected...
That happens to be a common English word-this word, even a primary school student, as long as it is not the kind of guy who takes an English exam, can basically recognize its meaning.
"'hospital'...hospital? Is this suggesting that I go to the hospital?" I want to talk to more like-minded people about the "Wasteland Survival Code", WeChat pays attention to "Excellent Literature" to read novels and talk about life, Finding a confidant~
