The furnishings inside were almost gathering dust. Zhao Mengxue inevitably backed away with some resistance. Finally, she opened the iron door and felt the smell of soot.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

This basement didn't look as narrow as it was in front of her. There might be something even more amazing behind it. She could already vaguely detect the light.

"Chen Yuchen, look, there is a secret door here!"

Following the woman's exclamation, Mr. Chen rushed to the scene as soon as possible. He found that the secret door seemed quite secretive.

"This door seems to have been aged for a long time. It is covered with dust and even has traces of being beaten. If I am not mistaken, someone should have been here long ago."

Based on their speculations, Zhao Mengxue held her chin and simply pried open the lock with a wire.

Sure enough, it was an old antique, and it could be solved without a locksmith company. As soon as they entered it, they found a group of unkempt people looking at them.

"This is……"

As soon as the words fell, a group of people flew directly to the ground. Their hair was so scattered, coupled with the stench floating on their bodies, it was really unacceptable.

"Finally, someone is here, savior! Are you sent by those guys?"

A tall and thick man swarmed forward. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Zhao Mengxue took a few steps back. She was really frightened by him.

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Everyone saw that she was dressed so fashionably, and if they guessed correctly, she must be a stunningly beautiful woman, and they thought she was also a subordinate of those dark people.

"Don't you understand? Aren't you just pretending? How many benefits have they given you? We have all fallen to this end, do you still want to harm others?"

This group of men looked to be at least thirty years old, and the youngest one was the one in the corner, who looked to be only about ten years old.

"Now that everyone has fallen to this end, what else do you want? Is it possible that the only way to make you people feel comfortable is to kill people and silence them."

They started to talk for a while, maybe they had gone through too many twists and turns, and they were almost killed by the Black Hand people in the past.

After living in such a place for so many years, no matter who it is, they will probably be a little insane. If they think about it from their perspective, they may be able to understand their feelings.

"This... this place is really a boring place! How long have you been here?"

"You know what you're asking. I see you two are dressed so well. If I'm not mistaken, you're definitely not on our team. What are you here for?"

This group of people behaved a bit fiercely, almost revealing their sharp fangs. Fortunately, Zhao Mengxue reacted in time.

"Forget it...wasting time with this kind of person is simply a waste of life."

"But I feel that trust needs to be established between people. Maybe this group of people did not stay here voluntarily."

After all, Zhao Mengxue still couldn't bear it. She looked around and found more things that made her look sad.

Although the group of people in front of me looked to be both men and women, if you picked anyone at random, they would all look sallow and thin.

Maybe they had nothing to eat since they entered this hellish place, and their stomachs began to growl.

"Perhaps if I give this map to everyone, you will naturally understand it."

This was the only ironclad evidence at the moment. Zhao Mengxue simply pushed the planned drawings directly onto a desk hall.

"We don't want to disturb everyone's lives, but someone secretly wants us to disturb your lives, so this time we pretended to be here and came here."

Zhao Mengxue still wanted to waste her time and tell them earnestly that the map had been placed in the hands of these lunatics, and everyone looked at it for a while.

Even without thinking about it, they understood what was going on. They knew that there was no way to fake the seal on it.

"Ding Cheng! Why doesn't he want to let me go so far? We have been sleeping here for ten years. What else does he want?"

The name sounded familiar, maybe it was Boss Ding whom I had worked with in the past few years.

I thought he was a humble man before, not as domineering as these guys said. Ding Cheng is also one of the top big names in the industry.

"Ding Cheng? Could it be that you guys were exiled here by him? Then why don't you take the opportunity to find a way out?"

Just as everyone was starting to have a deep discussion, they suddenly heard the iron door outside and was directly blown by a gust of wind.

"It's over... now there's not even the last exit! It seems like we're going to die here forever, and it's all your fault! Now you can't get out either..."

I originally thought I could go out through their door, but in the end, I have to pay attention to everything. An accident will always happen faster than planned.

"You... who are you?"

Seeing their haggard appearance, Chen Yuchen began to fall into deep thought. He had never seen the faces of this group of people. In addition, they had five horses and spears, and he could not see their faces.

"We... are naturally members of Chen Xu Company. We used to work hard for the company, but in the end we were abandoned. Do you think this is reasonable?"

Hearing this, Zhao Mengxue was a little confused. After all, they did not have any big conflicts of interest for the company.

Why did they end up like this? Is it because they did something that went against the company's philosophy?

"Chen Yuchen, what should we do next?"

No wonder they received such a big task. It turned out to be the trick of Chen Xu's company, and now the two of them are locked up here.

It was estimated that even if they had money, they wouldn't be able to spend it. The two of them began to fall into deep thought, not knowing how to get out.

"There will definitely be a way..."

Although it was impossible to see the light outside in this airtight place, the crowd standing opposite could survive.

It means that they can survive in the same way, but the process may be more bumpy. The two of them have never figured out what is going on.

"Forget it, don't think about it. We have been here for so long and haven't had a chance to go out. Don't you have a lot of heads and six arms? Rather than having this time, it's better to take a good rest."

"After all, everyone's physical strength is limited, don't blame me for not reminding you."
