Ten Days End
Chapter 29
Officer Li did not look at Qiao Jiajin, but asked Qi Xia: "I do have something to say about Han Yimo... Did you leave something unsaid? What does Han Yimo's death represent? What does the sword mean?"
Qi Xia narrowed his eyes and looked at Officer Li carefully: "Officer, you are good at criminal investigation, and I am good at fraud. Now you ask me for advice on the case, isn't it strange?"
Officer Li lowered his head helplessly and said: "We have come to this kind of ghost place, how can "criminal investigation" still be useful?"
Qi Xia was silent for a while after hearing this, and decided to tell him the clues he thought of: "Officer, I can only say... Han Yimo may know the sword."
"Know?" Officer Li frowned, then nodded with a little thought, "You mean he has seen the sword before?"
"These are not the issues you need to consider." Qi Xia said, "You should still care about your own situation."
"What do you mean? "
Qi Xia sighed, turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Officer Li.
"Don't go, what exactly is my "situation"? "
Ling Qin covered her mouth and nose, leaned close to Officer Li's ear, and whispered: "Mr. Officer, Qi Xia doesn't want to say it, I can say it for him, there are two places you need to be careful of."
"Two?"
"That's right, first, the only person who can easily lift the giant sword is the crazy female clerk. She is very strong. In other words, if Han Yimo was really killed, then the female clerk is the biggest suspect. You should leave this place as soon as possible."
Officer Li nodded with a heavy face, and asked, "What about the second?"
"The second is your "teammates", they don't look trustworthy. "
Officer Li's lips moved slightly, as if he had thought of something.
Now standing on his side are Xiao Ran, a kindergarten teacher who is influenced by emotions and does not look smart, Zhang Chenze, a lawyer who is indifferent to everything and only looks at the pros and cons, and Dr. Zhao, who has confronted him before and is somewhat self-centered.
If the four of them encounter a life-threatening test, can they trust each other?
Officer Li struggled with his thoughts for a long time before finally saying, "Qi Xia, no matter what, I will use the convenience store as my base camp and explore several nearby areas. If you have any intelligence... you can also come to me to exchange."
Qi Xia neither agreed nor refused, but glanced at him lightly and turned away.
The remaining few people didn't know what to say and followed him.
Officer Li stared at the backs of the four people for a while, and returned to the convenience store with Dr. Zhao and Xiao Ran.
How could he not know that the four people outside were more trustworthy at critical moments, but they were going to collect "Tao", in other words, they were looking for death.
It was not safe to follow them.
If they want to survive smoothly now, they can only find a base first, and then make a long-term plan.
...
Qi Xia led a few people to move forward, and soon they came to the square where they landed yesterday.
He wanted to come here to confirm one thing.
That is the huge bell sound heard in the morning.
Just like yesterday, there is a huge electronic display screen in the center, and a bronze bell hangs above the display screen.
When Han Yimo was assassinated, the huge bell rang.
Ling Qin blinked and said, "I seem to have heard the bell several times..."
"Several times?" Qiao Jiajin paused and asked, "When?"
Ling Qin's pupils turned slightly, and recalled: "Do you remember... the man whose head was smashed by the "Man-Sheep" when we just woke up in the room? When he died, it seemed that the bell rang. "
Tian Tian seemed to understand something: "Could it be that... every time someone dies, the bell will ring? "
Several people nodded, thinking that this guess should be correct. The bronze bell in front of them seemed like a death knell, informing everyone of the number of deaths.
"No." Qi Xia shook his head, "The corridor we went through has at least thousands of rooms. While we were going through the "game", people were dying in each room. If this thing is a death knell, we can't have heard only two bells."
"This..." Tiantian felt that what Qi Xia said made sense, but if so, what are the conditions for the giant bell to ring?
"Huh?" Ringo looked up at the display screen and found it empty. "I remember there was a line of words on it yesterday."
Everyone looked up and saw that the words on it had indeed disappeared.
"It seems to be... echoing..." Qiao Jiajin touched his chin and said, "I echoed and brought disaster?"
"I heard the word "bring disaster""Echo." Qi Xia said.
"Oh, right..." Qiao Jiajin nodded, "What does that mean?"
Qi Xia shook his head.
This is not something that can be guessed, they know too little about this city.
What is disaster? What is echo? Who is "I"?
"Forget it, let's go somewhere else."
Qi Xia turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly he was stunned.
In front of him was a withered face with a smile.
This face appeared behind him at some point, and was staring at him straight at the moment.
Qi Xia's pupils moved, and he hurriedly took two steps back.
The remaining three people were also startled. In front of them was a withered old man, who stood on tiptoe, his body bent like a dead tree.
"I've thought of it..." The old man smiled slightly, revealing his only remaining tooth, "I've thought of the question you asked me!"
Qi Xia was stared at by the old man, and felt a chill on his back: "Are you talking to me?"
The old man pursed his cracked lips: "Young man, I know the answer! It's "betting your life"! As long as you bet your life, everything will be easy!"
He stretched out his hand with dirty nails and was about to grab Qi Xia.
"We are so close to getting out! As long as you are willing to bet your life..."
Qi Xia frowned and took a few steps back. Although he didn't understand what the old man was saying, it was too weird that he kept saying that he wanted his life.
"Hey! Old man, who are you?" Qiao Jiajin asked suspiciously, "Have you seen Qi Xia before?"
The old man's expression moved, and he turned his head to look at Qiao Jiajin.
He opened his mouth with a complicated expression, and then asked: "Don't you know me?"
"Why should I know you? "
The atmosphere was silent for a while, the old man's cloudy eyes kept flashing, and after a long time he finally thought of something: "So that's it... you... have seen "Tianlong"..."
"Tianlong?" The four people looked at each other.
"No hope..." The old man shook his head and slowly turned his back, "We can't beat him... We are lost here forever... No wonder "Zodiac" came back again..."
He walked away while muttering, and his back looked very lonely.
