An Qian and Shen Yunjia agreed to explore the basement together tonight.
Anxi had already inspected the first to third floors of the house during the day.
Moreover, the space on the ground of this house has long been occupied by the crew's employees, so the black and red tentacles can only hide underground.
squeak——
Anxi opened the heavy iron door with force. The door leading to the basement was embedded in the ground. You had to step on a ladder to reach the basement.
"You go down first, I'll illuminate it for you from above."
Anxi held up a flashlight and shined it through the basement door. Below was an ordinary cement floor.
Shen Yunjia slowly climbed down the ladder. The ladder was a wooden ladder. It had become loose and fragile after years of corrosion, so she had to climb down carefully.
"I'm here." Shen Yunjia's voice came from underground, "This ladder is quite long, please pay attention to safety."
"Okay, you go farther away first, lest I hit you in the air." An Qian asked Shen Yunjia to stay away, then she bit the flashlight in her mouth and prepared to step on the ladder.
But before Anxi could turn around.
boom!
She was kicked hard on the back.
Something happened so suddenly that Anxi couldn't control her center of gravity at all, her body tilted and she fell straight down.
"Anxi!"
Shen Yunjia exclaimed, reaching out to pick it up, but there was not enough time for her to run back to the ladder.
Anxi fell to the cement floor in the basement, blood dripping from her forehead, and there were many wounds all over her body.
Squeak————
The basement door was closed, and at the same time there was the sound of chains being wrapped and locked.
They were locked up in the basement of this ancient house.
"Anxi! Anxi, are you okay?"
Shen Yunjia did not dare to touch An Qian easily, and knelt down beside her, calling anxiously.
She took out her mobile phone from Anxi's pants pocket, but it was broken and could not be used, and there was no one she could call for help on her own mobile phone.
"An Qian... An Qian..." Shen Yunjia could only keep calling An Qian's name, hoping that she would stay awake.
"..."
But Anxi couldn't respond. Her head was hurting, her eyes were gray, and her ears were ringing.
Shen Yunjia was so anxious that she cried, climbed up the ladder again, knocked hard on the basement door, and shouted: "Is there anyone outside! Help!!"
But the location of the basement entrance is very remote, and it is late at night, so no one will pass by here.
Shen Yunjia kept knocking on the basement door. Her hands were already wearing her boxing gloves, but it took time to break through the thick iron door.
"What happened?"
A majestic voice suddenly sounded from the basement corridor.
A flashlight's white light shone on Shen Yunjia, who was knocking on the door.
"You are..." Shen Yunjia narrowed her eyes because of the white light.
"Li Huixin."
The flashlight shifted slightly, revealing Li Huixin's serious and upright face.
Shen Yunjia was overjoyed. She didn't expect Li Huixin, a police officer, to appear here. She pointed to the ground and shouted: "My friend is injured! Can you save her!"
When Li Huixin heard Shen Yunjia's words, she took a flashlight and shined it on the ground. An Qian was lying quietly on her side on the cement floor, with blood already forming a small puddle.
"How could this happen? It's so careless."
Li Huixin frowned and criticized, but with quick movements, she took out the policeman's first aid kit and bandaged An Qian.
"No." Shen Yunjia explained, "It seems that An Qian was kicked down by someone, and the basement door was locked by that person."
"What?"
Li Huixin was confused and looked up at the basement door. Shen Yunjia was afraid that she would not believe it, so she punched the iron door hard. The iron door was slightly dented but did not move at all.
Li Huixin nodded to show that she understood, then took out a walkie-talkie from the inside of her clothes and said, "Zhao Zhiliang, I heard the reply."
The intercom came out with the electric sound of "Zi-Zi-".
After a while, Zhao Zhiliang's voice appeared from the intercom: "Sister Xin, what's the matter?"
Li Huixin: "Come to the basement door. There is a suspicious person who has locked up the basement. Pay attention to safety."
"receive."
Zhao Zhiliang had no unnecessary questions and started to set off after hearing Li Huixin's order.
After notifying Zhao Zhiliang, Li Huixin waved to Shen Yunjia: "You come down first and move her over with me."
Shen Yunjia asked: "Where to move?"
"There is a bed inside, so don't let her lie on the ground all the time."
Li Huixin checked the injuries on An Qian's body. Because she fell sideways, there were only scratches on her body and no fractures or dislocations. The most serious injury was on her head.
"good."
Shen Yunjia listened to Li Huixin's words. She didn't know why, but Li Huixin always gave people a feeling of being trustworthy and reliable.
The two of them worked together to lift Anxi and walk deeper into the basement.
The basement of the house is not a simple storage room. It covers a very wide area and is equipped with beds, a simple water supply and drainage system, and even furniture and appliances, but they are all very old styles, such as a big-ass TV, a tape player, There are also vacuum cleaners that look like iron buckets.
This is so that you can hide underground for a period of time if something unexpected happens.
However, because the underground has been neglected all year round, everything is covered with a thick layer of dust.
"let it go."
Li Huixin and Shen Yunjia put An Qian on the bed, raising a layer of dust.
"Cough..." Anxi coughed lightly. She was still dizzy, but her consciousness returned slightly.
"I..." Anxi said weakly, "There are a few gummies in the right pocket of my clothes... take them, give them to me..."
When Shen Yunjia heard An Qian's voice, she quickly leaned over to rummage around and found a few gummy bears in small sealed pockets from An Qian's pocket.
These are the vitamin C gummy bears Anxi bought at Building 13. They can enhance the body's immunity and have a weak therapeutic effect.
Shen Yunjia stuffed the gummy candy into An Qian's mouth.
Anxi chewed hard and swallowed, and her consciousness became a little clearer again, but her body was still in severe pain and she couldn't move.
"What are you doing down here?"
Seeing An Qian regaining consciousness, Li Huixin asked directly without any foreshadowing, as if she was interrogating a prisoner.
"I came here because I thought there were clues related to the copy in the basement. What about you?"
Although the information related to the black and red tentacles has been hidden, An Qian's words are true. When talking to people like Li Huixin, you must tell the truth, otherwise she will see the clues and there will be no good results.
"Then our goals are the same, so let's cooperate for the time being."
Seeing An Qian's honesty, Li Huixin also told the truth. She was silent for a moment and then continued:
"Last time Zhao Zhiliang saw something in the basement..."
"What is it?" An Qian was curious. Could it be that Zhao Zhiliang had discovered black and red tentacles in the basement last time.
"Yes..." Li Huixin frowned, looking a little confused. It seemed that what Zhao Zhiliang saw was not easy to describe.
"It's a ghost."
Li Huixin held it in for a long time before saying something.
An Qian and Shen Yunjia were confused and asked in unison: "Ghost?"
