The Guide to the End of the World: Four Sentinels Compete for Favor

Shi Bin only looked at it for a dozen seconds, then suddenly covered his phone and asked in a low voice, "Where did it come from?"

Prince Tang leaned in and whispered, "I found it at the door this morning."

Is this a coincidence or is someone doing this on purpose...

"Lao Shi, do you think that the kidnappers might have deliberately provoked us because they knew we saved Xiao Tang?" Huang Xiaochi said worriedly.

"Is this woman the one who tied you up?" Shi Bin stared at Prince Tang and asked in a deep voice.

Prince Tang shook his head: "No, I don't know her."

"Lao Shi, look at the bathroom window. It's in the same position as the bathroom window in this house. The incident in the video must have happened in these two buildings."

“And the time was yesterday.”

Huang Xiaochi analyzed: "We have checked both buildings over the past two days and didn't see anyone outside. The kidnappers couldn't get out, so there must be a household that has been harmed."

"Are there any other clues in the phone?" Shi Bin asked.

Huang Xiaochi shook his head: "No, there is only this video."

Shi Bin took a deep breath and said, "We must catch these crazy guys. Otherwise, many more people will fall victim to their murderous hands."

Prince Tang said excitedly: "Brother, what should we do? Just tell me!"

Shi Bin didn't have any particularly good idea. Was he going to ask every household?

Huang Xiaochi, who had been his partner for several years, rejected this plan first: "Lao Shi, we can't ask every household. People will see us standing at the door and won't open the door at all."

"Brother, do you still remember the notebook you brought back?" Prince Tang had an idea in his mind and took out the notebook that Shi Bin had picked up from under the sofa cushion.

"Do you remember what they said about a weird girl who went door to door counting the number of people, and then that girl jumped into the water for no apparent reason?"

"I remember, what's wrong?"

"Do you think it is possible that the girl is the aunt who kidnapped me? They are counting the number of people from house to house in order to find their next target." Prince Tang analyzed.

Shi Bin's eyes lit up: "Sure, kid."

Prince Tang raised his eyebrows proudly: "Of course I am. I am one of the top ten students in my class."

Huang Xiaochi hit him on the shoulder: "Okay, college bully, tell me what you found."

"Isn't that easy? What they wrote in the notebook is the next target, which means they don't live in these rooms. Let's rule these out and look for the ones that are not in the notebook first."

Shi Bin pondered and said, "What you said makes sense, but how can we get them to open the door?"

"That's even easier. When night comes, we turn off the power..." Before Prince Tang finished speaking, he heard Curly shout in the toilet:

"Hey, which bastard turned off the lights?"

The tall man stood up and flipped the light switch in the living room twice, but the ceiling light didn't respond at all.

"There's a power outage..." Everyone looked at each other.

"Who's going to check if there's no electricity? Xiao Tang, you go and check." Qiu Fei pointed at Prince Tang and ordered.

"Why should I go?" Having said that, Prince Tang still stood up and walked towards the door.

"If you run out of electricity, you can just go to the 9th floor and ask the elder sister to top it up."

Prince Tang opened the door and met his neighbor opposite.

They both just poked their heads out of the house and said in unison: "Your house has no electricity either?"

"Hey, don't look anymore, the whole neighborhood has lost power." The husband of the family with the child was holding his phone, looking at it and saying, "Everyone in the group is asking about this."

Everyone who had joined the community group took out their phones to check, and sure enough, everyone was talking about the power outage.

"It's normal for the power to be out. The water is so heavy that it's almost reaching the top of the electric poles."

"What should I do? Can it be fixed? My phone won't work without battery."

"What are you thinking? The water outside is so high, if you can't go to work, can the people at the power company go to work?"

“When will this water recede…?”

Everyone started arguing.

Prince Tang returned to the two policemen and said with a bitter face, "We can't turn off the power."

Shi Bin seemed to have finally made up his mind: "Lend me your phone."

If you don't use it, it may be out of power.

Prince Tang handed the phone to Shi Bin. Seeing him take it to the balcony and close the balcony door, he asked curiously, "Who is Brother Shi calling?"

Huang Xiaochi sighed: "Don't worry about it, little friend."

Boys of this age can't stand being called young, so he said, "I'm an adult now."

"Show me your ID card."

"If you don't tell me, I'll go and listen by myself!" Prince Tang was about to leave, but was stopped by Huang Xiaochi.

"Lao Shi must have called his ex-wife. Please be quiet." Huang Xiaochi pulled him and whispered.

Prince Tang perked up when he heard this: "Even after the divorce, he's still thinking about his ex-wife. What a romantic man."

"You little bastard, did you call me Lao Shi?" Huang Xiaochi glared at him and sighed, "It's because we are too busy with work to take care of our family. It's not like our relationship is really broken."

"Brother Xiaochi, are you married?"

"Don't bring up things that are not relevant to the topic. Can you be more discerning?" Huang Xiaochi grabbed his neck and threatened, "Don't let anything slip later. Just pretend that nothing happened. Understand?"

"Got it. Do you think I'm an idiot?" Prince Tang broke free from his restraints and lowered his head to look at the notebook.

"Look, there's a black star next to this room number!"

"What the hell is the Black Horned Star--" Huang Xiaochi lowered his head in disgust, and following Prince Tang's fingertips, he saw the marked 9th floor of Building A.

"It's Miss Ai... Can you please cut your nails? They're all covered in black mud!"

"The landlord's surname is Ai?" Prince Tang asked with sudden enlightenment.

"I have to inform her quickly. I can't let them harm the landlord!" Prince Tang couldn't find his phone. When he looked up, he saw Shi Bin coming in from the balcony with a dark face. He shouted, "Brother, I have to use my phone."

Shi Bin returned the phone to him. Huang Xiaochi saw that he looked unhappy, and walked up to him and asked in a low voice: "Old Shi, are sister-in-law and Youyou okay?"

Shi Bin sat on the sofa and said after a long while, "She said her husband was with her, it's okay, so I should not worry about it."

Huang Xiaochi was too shy to say anything more. He patted Shi Bin on the shoulder and moved closer to Prince Tang to watch him send messages.

"No, why do you tell Miss Ai everything? Are you spying from here?"

"I borrowed the house from the landlord, so I have to be responsible. Don't worry, I didn't take pictures of you without clothes. You don't have a good figure."

"Me!" Huang Xiaochi said angrily.

"Do you have any idea?" Shi Bin wiped his face, shook off his depressed expression, stood up and asked.

"Brother, we suspect their next target will be the landlady!" Prince Tang said seriously, holding up the notebook.

Shi Bin recalled the big iron door on the 9th floor: "They must have taken the wrong medicine to choose the 9th floor."

Prince Tang then remembered the solid corridor door and felt a little embarrassed. He tried to make up for it himself, "In these two buildings, except for the first floor, the ones not in the book are the 1th and 9th floors of Building A, the 10nd, 2th, 8th, and 9th floors of Building B, and 10."

Shi Bin stroked his fat, unshaven chin and said, "They can't get up to the 10th floor of Building A, and the owner looks very capable, so it shouldn't be the 10th floor."

"How good are you in fighting?" Prince Tang turned to Huang Xiaochi and asked in a low voice.

Huang Xiaochi rolled his eyes and gave him a very affirmative look. Shi Bin didn't bother to pay attention to them and continued his analysis.

"It's possible that the 10th floor of Building B was because we were guarding the corridor at the time and it was inconvenient for her to come up. It's hard to say about the 8th and 9th floors."

"Forget it, there are only a few rooms anyway, let's go and take a look." Shi Bin made a quick decision: "With so much blood, the bloody smell can't be concealed, he will definitely smell it."

Prince Tang was a little shocked: "Is this how the police handle cases?"

"Haven't you heard that saying? It doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat. Now there is no police dog. Just make do with it." Huang Xiaochi said with a smile.

"You little brat, who are you calling a dog?" Shi Bin gave everyone a slap on the head, which alleviated his melancholy mood a lot.

Before leaving, Shi Bin called Qiu Fei aside and said, "We have to go out for something. You stay at the door."

"I won't hide it from you. There's a group of crazy kidnappers in the building. They're the kind that kill people and dismember them. Even if a little girl comes knocking on the door, you're not allowed to open it. Do you understand?"
