Backdoors: The Survival Guide
Chapter 2: Warehouse

Shortly after I opened this door, not the way out, but this door led me to a place like a warehouse with many empty shelves filling this place.

...

...

" This place is pretty quiet, but at least it's better than that white room "I thought.

The moment I stepped into the warehouse, the door of the white room automatically closed itself which left me a little surprised.

" Because it's like this we better explore first "

Walking in this empty warehouse, my mind was quite wandering everywhere. This place is similar to many horror places that he usually sees on TV or Studio.

And he also could not see the end of this vast warehouse. On the way I also saw many roads leading to the hallways, isolation rooms, there were even stairs leading either downstairs or upstairs.

Unsure of the right path, I just continued to go around in the warehouse. In some places, I found shelves that had cardboard packages.

When I tried to open it, I was lucky enough to find a Ramen Cup package. During the previous survey, I found that this place has enough water and electricity. The water here is also clean enough so I think it's safe to drink.

But unfortunately, I don't have a stove here to make this Ramen Cup package. I also do not have a bag or anything to carry this food, to save food sources and also anticipate that I will not find another food package, he said, I carried the cardboard package around with me.

A while later I kept going around when I suddenly heard someone's footsteps from the surroundings.

Reflek, I quickly hid myself and picked up a piece of iron that was randomly on one of the shelves.

Holding the iron tightly, I kept waiting to see who was coming.

As the source of the sound drew nearer, from behind the empty shelves I saw a young high school boy who was walking timidly looking around carrying an iron rod. From his expression alone, I could tell that this person seemed to be a victim like me.

Sighing, I decided to get out, at least in this strange world I was lucky enough to meet another human.

Coming out of my hiding place, I then called the boy, " Hey boy, come here "

The High School boy who heard me looked like he was very surprised as he very vigilantly looked at me while tightly grasping the iron rod in his hand. It's a natural reaction, in places and situations where you don't know what's going on, obviously you'll be very alert and suspicious when you meet other people.

Dropping my wand, I decided to calm the boy down, "Calm down, are you also being pulled in by that black room? "

" Alright, I'm also in the same situation where we were transferred to this mysterious place. Maybe because we met each other like this, we can work together to find a way out. But if you're still feeling alert you can continue on your way, and we'll walk each other's way how? " I said, extending my hand.

The boy was still silent, but seemed to think very deeply about what I had to offer. In the end the boy nodded and replied, "I still don't trust you, but it's better to be alone in a place like this. " 

After saying that, the boy walked cautiously towards me and grabbed my handshake. 

" A very clever decision "I said with a smile, "So what's your name, son? " i said as I picked up the cardboard containing the Ramen Cup.

" Don't call me son, my name is Park Hyunsuk "

" Huntsuk Park? are you korean? " My words, when further noticed this person has distinctive Asian characteristics as well. I did not pay much attention to it because this Warehouse has an unstable laxative, there are places that have bright lighting there are also places that have dim lighting. And this place is the latter kind, also plus the previous tense situation I myself focused on calming the boy down.

In retrospect, how could the two of us understand each other? Obviously I asked the boy in the language of my country, can the boy speak the language of my country?

" Right, uncle himself? looks like uncle's not korean? "

" I am Indonesian although not of pure descent. Do you speak Indonesian? "

" No, aren't we currently speaking Korean? "

I shook my head, "I speak Indonesian from earlier, it seems like this place negates the limitations between languages" I said.

" Is that so, well if it's this place... " Hyunsuk said quietly at the end.

" By the way I'll call you Hyun, you can call me Lan. " said I.

" What the hell, decided to call someone's name at will. But since we will be together for a while, please cooperate with him. "

It seemed that the previous conversation eased the alertness of this boy a little, with a small smile I also replied, "Please cooperate with him as well "
