Little hero

The atmosphere in the building is gloomy, and the further down you go, the more so.

Joe changed the lamp with another hand. The iron handle on the lamp was very cold, and there was a layer of moisture on it. Joe's palm was wet, but he felt that it was more like his cold sweat.

Ge'an walked in front alone, and finally there were four red dots on his detector, the one behind him had disappeared, and the two extra ones appeared not long ago.Ge'an looked at those points silently, and he already knew the approximate location.

The underground of this building is very deep. They walked for a while, and because the passageway was in a circle, the speed of descent was very slow, and there were many paths to walk.Some of the time was spent on the nudibranchs, and Joe resented it, but he didn't say it or show it.

The underground was going deeper step by step. The two talked for a while, and then they were silent. After a while, Joe looked at the candle in the lamp, and a stream of water flowed down from the bed. Joe thought it was like tears.

Joe said, "Gan, are we there yet?"

Ge'an shook his head and said, "Hurry up."

The walls here are damp, and the road under their feet is very soft, which means that they have gone deep. This is the underground in the south, and the humidity is much higher than that of Jidu. In fact, it is difficult to breathe in places with high humidity. It's underground, very stuffy.

Joe felt extremely uncomfortable, not a feeling of suffocation, but an indescribably sticky stuffiness.

He fanned a little in front of his nose, which made him feel better, but it was only a symptom, not a cure.

Just when Joe couldn't take it anymore, they finally arrived.

The spiral passageway reached the bottom, and the slope disappeared into a flat ground. The lamp in his hand could not illuminate all the places, and an elliptical light circle was reflected at the bottom of the stairs.

Gean and Joe stood in the center of this circle of light, and outside the circle of light was darkness that could not be seen.

"Is this the place?" Joe looked up.

The air here is obviously much better than the narrow passage above, and Joe can breathe smoothly, but such an open environment still gives people a feeling of insecurity.

Joe held the lamp tightly.

"It's here." Ge'an put his detector in his pocket, and he looked around. This is an underground platform. As far as the current level of technology is concerned, it is not easy to build an underground platform, like the one in Fifteenth Street. The underground passage was formed after a hundred years of underground industry, and the people involved were a handful of loess hundreds of years ago, and now there is nothing to study.

This is also the reason why Fifteenth Street is so difficult to explore and find. If it weren't for years of undercover infiltration, the Congressional Bureau would not be able to fully grasp this behemoth.

But here is still a little different from the [-]th Street District.

The fifteenth block is an underground passage, and there are not many places that need to be hollowed out. This is a passage used to connect various houses. There are cars inside, so there are many brackets, and it is completely connected with the above-ground buildings. Far away from rivers, lakes and seas, the moat of the diversion canal is outside the city, far away from the fifteenth block. Even if it is wet here, there is fog on the ground, and the underground ground is relatively hard, so there will be basically no collapse accidents.

But the south is different. The underground soil in the south is soft and not far from the ocean. The climate here itself is humid, and the city has a lot of rainfall.

Such a platform is almost impossible to build.

But it was still built here. Gean took Joe's lamp, lifted it up to look, and walked a few steps in various directions. After confirming that this is indeed a flat ground deep underground, he took out the detection equipment again.

"Ge'an, is this right?" Joe lost the lamp, and was very nervous at this moment, but there was nothing in his hand to pinch, so he tightly pinched the corner of his clothes.

"Well, it's here." Ge'an waved at Joe, "Go here."

The platform is just the beginning, and there are passages all around. Ge An took Joe into it, and the more he went in, the colder it became inside.

Joe trusts Ge'an's sense of direction, but he still feels skeptical. This kind of trust and doubt must exist, because Ge'an is undoubtedly an expert in detection, but Mr. is his predecessor, and even the person who taught him. There is a feeling of game in it.

The more Joe trusted Ge'an, the more he doubted the possibility of Mr. being here.

At the end of the passage is a house with a door made of copper and iron, which has grown a layer of rust in the humid environment.

Ge'an took out the tool and poked the keyhole for a while, and it seemed to open, but the door was firmly rusted on the door frame, and it couldn't be opened without brute force.

Behind the iron gate, the chilling air slowly came out, Qiao Lagan's clothes: "Don't you think this is..."

He was halfway through.

This place is not big, and there is a passage behind, and the passage is completely dark, even if there is something, it is absolutely impossible to see it.Joe had a feeling of being chased by someone from behind, and the iron gate in front could not be opened, as if he could not escape, but the iron gate was so cold, Joe remembered the mortuary building mentioned by Ge An before, and he was afraid that the iron gate would be even more terrifying .

He was scared, and he just wanted Ge'an to give up this place and take him to a place with light.Besides, can't they go around long distances to find some truth and clues?Or turn to Mr. for help, it is impossible for Mr. to be in this kind of place!

Qiao advised Ge'an: "Let's go, let's go, I don't see anything here..."

Ge'an didn't respond to him, and didn't listen to what he said at all, so he brought Edgar out: "Hey, really, I'm serious. Don't you think about it? Think about it again... what's the use here , Didn’t you say that that person went to Jidu? Why did he go to find Edgar?”

Ge An moved, and said: "Master Edgar will be well protected, and Master Edward will watch over him." And Eisen, that is a clever Mr. Doctor, he will guide Edgar to make a move. correct choice.

"No, no, no..." Joe listened to the sound of the iron door being knocked, as if it was knocking on his heart. He had heard such a voice before, "Third, Third Highness! Have you forgotten?! That person Said!"

"They've met each other a long time ago," Ge'an said unmoved, "It will take half a month to go back now, Joe, I don't want to say this anymore, but I still want to tell you that we should focus on what's in front of us." matter."

Joe was about to speak, but when he lowered his head, he saw his own shadow.

The lamp is in Ge'an's hand, his shadow should be behind him, but not in front of him, or else... Qiao turned his head slightly——

"Gan," said the voice.

At the same time, Ge'an heard a strange sound, the sound was like the sound of "gurgling" from the wheels of a carriage, but the sound was muffled and not crisp.

Ge'an already had a premonition in his mind, and he turned his head slowly, slowly.

At the entrance of the passage, a beam of light came from far to near. The woman was wearing bright clothes, and she was pushing a wooden wheelchair with an old man sitting on it.

The old man's legs were covered with a blanket, the pattern was the kind of color commonly used by nobles, but it was a little far away, and Ge'an couldn't tell what kind of flower it was.

"I just came from Missi River, the scenery there is not bad, if you have a chance, you can take Edgar to see it." The old man is as comfortable as visiting a scenic spot, "Mr. Ham also said that it is very humid here, and told me not to come , I think it's about the same."

The old man pointed to his knee, looked at Ge'an and smiled: "It doesn't hurt too much."

The old man's face was familiar, and Gean even smelled a smell of fresh grass, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

"Ge'an, I'm very glad to meet you here. Although I really want to catch up with you, there is still one thing I want to tell you—"

"A qualified hunter will never let down his vigilance before the prey dies. A qualified loyal dog will never expose his master to danger. As long as he does not die within your sight, he will return It's possible to survive, and again, as long as he's out of your sight, then he's dangerous."

Ge'an's throat moved, he took a step forward, and his mouth squirmed twice.

"Ge'an, you've done a good job, but you're still not good enough," the old man nodded to him, "If this is a trial, then you're not good enough."

"Mr. Sir." Ge An let out a long sigh.
