There is no turning back when the bow is drawn. We have reached this point and there is no way out.
"dig!"
I pointed at the drainage channel and shouted, "If anything happens, it's mine!"
In this way, the good drainage channel was dug into wasteland. I jumped down first and looked at it carefully.
I was observing from the ground almost in a crawling position, hoping that something would go wrong immediately.
The entire structure of the canal is made of nothing but sand and cement.
However, while groping, I suddenly saw something strange.
The mortar mixture is mixed with large and small wooden sticks, the longest one can be half a foot, and the small ones are only a few inches.
When we were in our hometown, we all built the brick houses we lived in ourselves.
Anyone with a little experience knows that in order to make the house strong, the mortar must be as fine as possible.
If there are too many impurities inside, the wall may become ventilated over time, or the house may become loose.
Anyone who can repair drainage ditches must be experienced craftsmen, and it is impossible for them to make such a low-level mistake.
When I entered the industry, my master taught me a saying: The courage to swallow the sky, the heart of a needle.
Courage and carefulness are indispensable, and any uncertainties are worthy of verification.
Turning around, I looked at Taozi and said, "Bring me a pickaxe."
After a clanging knock, I dug out several pieces of wood sticks.
I blew the powder on it and looked at the sun. The stick was divided into three parts and slightly bent.
Um?
Why does this thing look more and more familiar?
I suddenly remembered that last time I was at Liu Hao's house, I found a finger behind the clock.
It looks exactly like the stick in my hand!
Damn it!
The emergence of this idea still shocked me.
How could this thing be buried in this ditch?
Regardless of the inconvenience of her clothes, Taozi jumped down from above: "Found it?"
I nodded a little heavily and said, "Let someone thoroughly open this place."
It didn’t take long before a mountain of finger bones was piled in front of us.
In full view of everyone, no one said anything.
Although I had an explanation for Taozi and even the entire Yueming Tower, my heart felt like a weight weighing on me, and I couldn't relax no matter what.
How many bones do it take to build such a small mountain?
And who on earth could have such vicious means?
After a while, I spoke first: "The physical evidence is here, you..."
"Just make up your mind!"
Tao Zi looked at the pile of finger bones and said with a heavy expression, "The drainage channel is right under my window. Even outsiders, not even the residents of Yueming Tower, can get in."
"Huh?" Taozi suddenly turned to look at Manager Huang: "A while ago, did you find someone to repair the drainage ditch?"
Manager Huang strode forward and nodded respectfully: "Indeed, the drainage channel was blocked a while ago, and it rained more frequently this summer."
"If we don't deal with it sooner, I'm worried something might go wrong."
Taozi immediately asked: "Where did you find this person?"
Manager Huang suddenly looked embarrassed: "There was a small worker on the street doing squats, so I just found him."
Turning around, Taozi looked at me solemnly: "The only people who can touch the drainage channel are those workers."
I slapped my thigh suddenly: "It's over now!"
Manager Huang frowned, turned around and left: "I'm going to find someone now."
"Don't go."
I whispered, causing him to stop and turn to look at me doubtfully.
I took the opportunity to add: "Since he is sincere about harming you, he has already run away. Where can he find someone?"
Taozi's face turned from black to red, and she said angrily: "You are really blinded by lard, you dare to bully me!"
"You can dig deep enough to find this person!"
As the old saying goes, the first level of officialdom kills people.
What's more, Taozi, the leader of Yueminglou, his words are enough to break the legs of the people below.
"Stop talking nonsense!" I quickly advised from the side: "Where do you want to find someone in this huge sea of people?"
Taozi frowned: "Then I can still suffer in vain?"
Manager Huang cast a grateful look at me, and I just smiled indifferently.
"Leave this matter to me."
That's what I say, but in fact, I don't know exactly how to find the person behind it.
However, this is better than asking people to find a needle in a haystack.
