Wasteland Code Survival

The ringing of the phone was 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 hear that there is no ringing upstairs or downstairs. Only on this floor, when he just approached the room, did 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.

Could it be 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-quality building with low rent. It can be located in the fire cabinet on each floor of the corridor. A bottle of fire extinguisher 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 there is no answer after 60 seconds, the call will be automatically hung up, and the person making the call will also hear the familiar Chinese-English bilingual machine The tone "I'm sorry that the user you dialed is temporarily unanswered, please redial later..."

However, the "bell in the middle of the night" that suddenly rang did not seem to be subject to this restriction. It was almost two minutes now, where was 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 was very messy. There were a total of six desks, two of which were turned on the ground. The small coffee table was full of various messy contracts, documents, and flyers. The ground was also full of waste paper and garbage.

It was a red phone. The phone was covered with a thick layer of dust and placed on the innermost table. At this moment, there was no door to block the sound, and the ringing of the phone 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 was not in a hurry to answer the phone, he wanted to see what the number was.

However, when he cast his gaze on the phone display, he could not help but scolded himself as a "stupid" in his heart-"Caller ID" is a value-added service belonging to the communication operator, not the phone itself. Yes, 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 screen. This is a feature that most phones come with. The date displayed was January 1, 1900 at 0:3.

January 1, 1900 0:00 This is the initial time of most electronic perpetual calendars on the market in the old age, and 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 had been unplugged, but the power plug was still plugged into a somewhat aging patch panel.

The plug of the patch panel 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, that is, the building was in a state of power failure.

Since it is power off, why does the phone ring?!

Although there may be batteries inside the phone,

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 light up, and the ventilation fan did not start rotating.

Then, he picked up the phones on the other tables, but these phones could not 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 quiet the phone, but if he does this, he will 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 it, Qi Lin still felt that the tympanic membrane was shocked to a dull pain when the harsh buzzing sound came from the loudspeaker.

"Damn... 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 still repeated and can be distinguished by hearing it, but now this The frequency changes in the beeps are much more complicated!

This is a brand new frequency, not the previous international distress signal!

Enduring the discomfort of wanting to vomit, 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 point signal, this is "s"...

The first three letters and "sos" are only one point signal missing, 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 is long one by one, this is "a";

The eighth is a bit longer, this is "l", and it 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 a zero-exam test, he can basically recognize its meaning.
