Xie Chen's pupils shrank slightly.

I didn't ask Jiang Wanqiao clearly about the progress of his investigation before.

The disappearance case was filed in August, but there has been no progress for several months. This is obviously unreasonable.

Either Jiang Wanqiao didn't do his job well, and he still hasn't found any important clues until now.

Or for some reason, there is really no way to start with the whole incident.

But no matter which one it is, the result is somewhat different from what I imagined.

Xie Chen narrowed his eyes.

Perhaps Jiang Wanqiao's eyes were on the reality side from beginning to end.

At first I wondered if she had done anything in the sauna, and it might have something to do with the fact that a wooden box would be delivered to the swimming pool every few nights.

In this way, Jiang Wanqiao's things at the beginning were already different from his own, so naturally what he saw was also different.

While he was dazed, Jiang Wanqiao was not idle. He took out handcuffs from his arms and cuffed Luo Guyu's hands.

As for the fat cook whose upper body had turned into a seal, Jiang Wanqiao tied him several times with a rope on the ground.

Even his thighs were tied up, giving him no chance to escape.

"I'll explain it later. Let's get out of here first."

Jiang Wanqiao turned around and said to Xie Chen, who was looking at him.

Xie Chen had no objection.

It's just that I always feel something strange in my heart.

The two of them carried the fat cook together, and pulled Luo Guyu, who was handcuffed, together on the secret passage that rolled back.

After a while, he had returned to the curator's room outside.

Xie Chen pointed in the direction of the cabinet.

"There's another one here, bring her out too."

There was a hint of hesitation in Jiang Wanqiao's eyes, and she shook her head: "Don't bring so many people with you for the time being. Let's wait until the police arrive. Let's escort these two out first."

Jiang Wanqiao said so, and Xie Chen naturally nodded without objection.

Jiang Wanqiao gently patted Luo Guyu on the shoulder, and the latter walked out of the door honestly.

Xie Chen no longer carried the fat cook on his back, but instead dragged him up with one hand.

After opening the door, he walked straight out of the second floor, and the corridor outside had all turned into reality.

Dark, with thick dust.

It brings strong discomfort to people's body and physiology.

This is not only affected by the surrounding environment, but also the erosion of ghost stories.

Just like your own room in the first dungeon, as long as there are strange stories happening, it's the same reason.

After leaving the curator's room, the two of them did not speak to each other and came to the small walkway next to the swimming pool on the first floor very quietly.

Xie Chen looked at the surrounding environment, staring at Jiang Wanqiao's back.

In front is the sauna.

Under the patter of footsteps.

Xie Chen suddenly stopped.

He just stood there, looking at Jiang Wanqiao's back with a calm expression.

Jiang Wanqiao, who was walking in front, seemed to have eyes on his back. At the same time, he knew that Xie Chen had stopped.

Almost after taking two more steps, he stopped.

But she didn't look back.

Just the cheek slightly to one side.

"Why did you stop? The exit of the swimming pool is outside."

Xie Chen just stared at her and did not respond.

silence.

On the contrary, it is easier to make the surrounding environment more solemn.

It is more likely to give people a feeling of uneasiness.

Xie Chen took two steps back and held the rope that tied the fat cook a little tighter.

Jiang Wanqiao took a few steps forward. She didn't know whether she didn't care or because she was really anxious about the situation. Instead, she didn't seem to pay much attention to how Xie Chen reacted behind her.

But he stopped after just two more steps.

I wonder if the distance is getting farther.

Xie Chen did not remain silent this time.

"Jiang Wanqiao, Jiang Wanqiao, there is no need to pretend to be a police officer, right? How tiring is this?"

When she said this, Xie Chen stared at Jiang Wanqiao's back, but she pretended to be silent and had no intention of answering her own question.

"Why are you doing this?"

"I don't know how to act like one."

"Didn't you say you've never met the curator? Why are you so familiar with the secret room down there?"

Jiang Wanqiao turned around and smiled.

"That's it?"

"I followed the clues outside to support you. What's the problem?"

Xie Chen tilted his head slightly.

"Don't rush to refute."

"Where did you get the key to the curator's room?"

"How do you know there happens to be a secret passage?"

"Even if these are all because you have a pair of eyes that are good at discovery, the training warehouses and those four rooms below the curator's room."

"You can't possibly turn a blind eye, can you?"

"How come you don't even have any curiosity, but you just want to take people away?"

Jiang Wanqiao has completely turned around.

"Of course I'm curious."

"It's just that the police don't ask me to do this. The most important thing is to arrest the primary suspect."

Xie Chen paid attention to his surroundings and did not pay attention to Jiang Wanqiao's words at all.

A split second of effort.

Xie Chen immediately turned sideways and jumped into the air. At the same time, a semi-circular bench hit him behind him and almost landed on his back.

Xie Chen frowned and looked.

The person who hid behind him and took action was Luo Xi, who had been imprisoned in the cabinet of the curator's room by his own hands.

Xie Chen turned to look at Jiang Wanqiao.

"You released her yourself first, right?"

Jiang Wanqiao's face began to give people a crazy feeling.

"Can you guess this?"

"It seems that you are quite wary."

Jiang Wanqiao's eyes widened and she laughed at the top of her voice.

Xie Chen shook his head.

"Your acting skills are too poor."

Jiang Wanqiao waved his hand, and Luo Guyu beside him immediately opened the handcuffs on his hands, and then took out a tube of medicine from his arms.

Xie Chen's current situation is extremely embarrassing for you.

But in my heart, I was a little confused about the scene in front of me.

Is the director of this swimming pool Jiang Wanqiao or the fat cook?

What kind of internal relationship are there between these people?

Just when the two sisters were about to attack them, Xie Chen also clapped his hands and then whistled.

The door to the swimming pool opened immediately.

The woman was standing at the door holding two kitchen knives.

Xie Chen was immediately dumbfounded.

"Where did the security guard go?"

"Didn't I tell you to call the police?"

The woman looked at the three women and the humanoid seal lying on the ground, and her eyes were immediately filled with tears.

The two kitchen knives in his hands were raised loudly.

"Who killed my son?"

"I must make him pay with blood today!"

Seeing this scene, Xie Chen covered his forehead with one hand.

How to play this?

The two Luo sisters looked at each other, and after getting Jiang Wanqiao's nod of approval, they immediately pounced on the woman.

Even though Xie Chen was a little worried about the woman's condition, he paid more attention to Jiang Wanqiao's movements in front of him.

"You are the real director of this swimming pool, right?"

Xie Chen asked with a calm expression.

Jiang Wanqiao nodded slightly.

"clever."

"I only know it now, so what's the use?"

Xie Chen took out a baton from his arms, which he had prepared earlier in the security room.

I haven't put it to use yet against Fat Chef, so now I can try it out.

"You really don't think you have a good chance of winning, do you?"

Xie Chen looked at Jiang Wanqiao with his arms folded on his chest and said in a low tone.

But the next moment, this woman actually got into the sauna room, and he had no choice but to chase after her immediately.

When standing at the door, Jiang Wanqiao had already entered the second compartment.

After some unknown operations, the strange wall panel suddenly cracked.

"What the hell..."

"Is it really not the camera?"

Now I am really surprised by myself.

As the wall made a strange noise, the wall began to crack in the shape of a door at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As Xie Chen stood at the door, he heard the familiar wailing and roaring sounds.

Could it be that this sauna room is connected to the second room of the secret room?

Just as he was still in shock, the swimming pool outside was filled with people.

Xie Chen couldn't concentrate for the time being, and he wasn't sure whether it was the woman who had been tricked or the two Luo sisters who were at a disadvantage.

Jiang Wanqiao turned to face Xiechen and showed an incomprehensible smile.

"Stop struggling."

"Follow these failures and transform into the most primitive and simple form of human beings!"

Xie Chen couldn't help but cursed a madman secretly, and immediately ran over to see if he could block the door.

But after just two steps, I realized it was in vain.

The walls inside the sauna have suffered massive cracks.

No matter how strong I am, I will never be able to withstand such a large area of ​​damage.

Those monsters can crush themselves into meat patties just by relying on brute force.

Xie Chen immediately retreated, but Jiang Wanqiao rushed towards him.

Xie Chen immediately raised his hand and swung his baton, but Jiang Wanqiao fell over and made a sliding shovel, making his attack miss.

But fortunately, he had quick eyesight and quick hands. He raised his foot and stepped on the corner of Jiang Wanqiao's clothes, which was considered a trap for her. Only then did a novice have the opportunity to grab the clothes.

Jiang Wanqiao forced himself to stand up and pushed him with an elbow. It was best for Xiechen to raise his hands to defend passively.

At such a close distance, Xie Chen found that Jiang Wanqiao's pupils had become extremely dark, and there was not even a trace of white at all.

"Is this the appearance of being corroded by ghost stories?"

As soon as Jiang Wanqiao had this idea in his mind, he immediately bent down and squatted down, punching himself in the stomach.

Xiechen couldn't dodge and received the punch hard. Severe pain immediately filled his body.

But while enduring the pain, Xie Chen still held the baton in his hand and swept it towards her cheek.

Even if he couldn't kill her, he could still knock her unconscious.

But just after taking this punch, the force of the baton became extremely unbearable. The tightness made Jiang Wanqiao groan and a purple bruise appeared on his face.

Xie Chen staggered back.

Jiang Wanqiao covered her painful cheek, still got up and ran towards the door.

Those monsters have long lost their senses. Who said that the subconscious is still full of fear, but if you stay here, you will probably become the target of indiscriminate attacks in the end.

Xie Chen also couldn't accept being left to endure the hardship, so he stood up and hugged her body despite the severe pain.
