Chapter 721: A Little Secret on the Twelfth Floor

He pulled a small key from his pocket, easily opened the small lock, and pushed the door open.

Behind the door, it was as if there was a mirrored space, exactly the same as the corner where he was.

He took a step forward, looked left and right, then retracted, closed the door, the chains just pretended, and then he hurried back to his quarters, opened the security door, and flashed in again.

Aunt Du looked at him sneaking around, a little puzzled, "...... Eric, this ......"

"Don't ask any more. He stood beside Qiao Xihe and looked at his watch, "We still have ten minutes before the departure time, get ready." ”

Aunt Du pursed her lips and stood quietly aside.

In the living room, the tranquility is eerie, and in this tranquility there is a bit of an unusual atmosphere.

No one spoke, no one looked at anyone, they seemed to not know each other, just waited silently.

As soon as the ten minutes were up, Eric called, "Is it done?"

"Pei Tingyuan's people are evacuating. ”

Eric walked to the window and saw several hurried figures coming out of the apartment building and running off into the distance.

He waved to Aunt Du and Qiao Xihe, "Let's go." ”

Aunt Du hurriedly picked up the duffel bag, while Eric continued to support Qiao Xihe, and the three of them came out of the residence and went straight to the stairwell.

He led the two back to the corner to the eleventh floor and opened the small door.

Aunt Du couldn't help but ask in surprise, "What's going on, how can there be a door here?"

Eric motioned for them to come in, then relocked the door before pointing to a sign on the wall and saying, "This is the unit next door." A small door was opened here for an emergency escape route. It's just that it's been a long time since it's been used, and people have forgotten that it exists. ”

Aunt Du looked around, and while following Eric downstairs, she saw the elevator room on the eleventh floor, and she looked out from the window here, "It's really the next unit...... It's amazing......"

She looked back at Qiao Xihe, and subconsciously wanted to discuss this matter with her.

But Qiao Xihe's eyes were straight, there was no focus, he was a little distracted, and his mind was not on anything at all.

"Miss Joe. She couldn't help but shouted.

Qiao Xihe did not react.

Eric winked at Aunt Du, she pursed her lips and stopped talking.

The elevator arrived soon, after he entered, he pressed the key on the sixth floor, and after reaching the floor, he led the two into a house, and then immediately locked the door, turned out a few clothes worn by the old man and wife from the closet, wet and wrung them out, and dried them on the clothes pole outside the balcony.

After doing this, he looked at Qiao Xihe who was placed on the sofa in the living room, and then closed the curtains in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

Now, all that remains is to wait.

Wait until Pei Tingyuan's people are gone, and then he can make the next move.

Hopefully they won't notice that little door in the stairwell and become suspicious of it.

In fact, Eric didn't have much hope for this, Pei Tingyuan already knew that he and Qiao Xihe were in this apartment building, even if they dug three feet into the ground, they wanted to dig them out, or they wouldn't stop if they didn't find clues.

Sooner or later, the little door would attract their attention, and they would search the building.

At this moment, Pei Tingyuan was standing in the elevator hall on the first floor, listening to the reports of his subordinates.

"The suspicious floors have been checked, only one on the twelfth floor has no one answering the door, we have checked, it should be really no one at home. In addition, someone suspected of being Eric Choi appeared from the underground parking lot just now, and someone has been sent to chase him. ”

Pei Tingyuan looked at the elevator door, and there was a vague and distorted figure on the silver-white door, as if he couldn't see the truth clearly.

He said in a deep voice, "Keep an eye on that house, and then search the other floors, and you must not let Eric Choi slip away again." ”

"Yes!" the man hurriedly beckoned his men to do their work.

Pei Tingyuan stood in the elevator for a while, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the gloomy stairwell.

His footsteps turned, and he involuntarily walked towards the stairwell.

With his arrival, the sensor light turned on, illuminating the world and seeing it clearly.

Pei Tingyuan looked left and right and walked upstairs.

Layer after layer, he didn't feel tired, even if he went up like this, he couldn't figure out why he did it.

It seemed that a long time had passed, and he had not reached the end, and when he looked up at the staircase that seemed to have no end, his eyes were not only attracted by the same anomaly on the snow-white wall.

This is the corner platform from the eleventh floor to the twelfth floor, and it stands to reason that there shouldn't be a door......

He walked over, raised his hand to caress the smooth faΓ§ade, and pushed it a little harder, and he heard the sound of metal clashing, and it was supposed that the door was locked with chains on the other side.

Pei Tingyuan made great efforts and pushed the small door again, except for the sound of "Ding Zero", the door did not move at all.

He immediately took out his mobile phone and called his subordinates, "Ask the property, why is there a small door at the corner of the stairwell from the eleventh floor to the twelfth floor, and where does this lead?"

His men were quick to do things, and within a minute, he got an answer.

"This is the escape route designed when the building was first built, and there is also one on the fifth floor. I have already sent someone to the apartment building next door to guard it, Mr. Pei, please rest assured, there are also our people guarding the gate of the community, and Eric Choi will not escape our eyes again. ”

"Good. Pei Tingyuan looked at the small door again, and pushed it hard, but the small door did not open as he wished, he looked left and right, kicked open the fire equipment box next to him, picked out a fire axe from it, and then kicked it on the small door, revealing a gap, at the same time, he raised the fire axe, tried his best to cut into the gap.

There was a "bang", accompanied by the firelight, and the chains broke in response.

Pei Tingyuan threw away the fire axe, pushed open the door, and walked over.

With the sound, the sensor light turned on, and Pei Tingyuan looked at the staircase passage on this side.

It should be cleaned regularly, so there is no dust on the floor of the stairwell, no footprints can be seen, and nothing is left behind. He looked at the steps leading upstairs and looked down again.

Somehow, he slowly walked downstairs and pushed open the fire door on the eleventh floor, and the sunlight poured in, dazzling his eyes and causing him to feel momentarily uncomfortable.

He blinked, adjusted to the light, looked around the elevator, and was about to leave, when suddenly out of the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of the same thing by the trash can, not only stopped his steps, but walked forward quickly, ignoring the dirty things that had been thrown away in the trash can, emitting a burst of unpleasant smell, and leaning down to pick up the things.

He looked familiar with this thing, like ......
