Chapter 218: Race Against Time (Part 2)

Turning off the flashlight at the same time, Chen Yuan and Hua Erzhi were clinging to the sofa, and the nerves in their whole bodies were tense. The two men remained still, rolling their eyes to look at each other in the darkness.

The door to the master bedroom was opened, followed by the sound of footsteps that grew clearer.

The whole world seemed to freeze in this moment.

The hallway is lit up.

The sound of footsteps went from far to near, then slowly softer, and then the sound of going downstairs.

It seems that Boss Liang should not have discovered Chen Yuan and Hua Erzhi.

Chen Yuan cautiously looked from behind the sofa in the direction of the staircase.

Boss Liang's back was quickly submerged in the angle between the stairs and the ground.

Chen Yuan tried to keep his calm mood, and then glanced in the direction of the master bedroom, where the door was open. From this point of view, Boss Liang may be thirsty at night and ready to go downstairs to drink.

Chen Yuan took a second to think about the plan of action, and then he made a decision, "You hide here and don't move." He whispered to Walter, and then quietly walked in the direction of the master bedroom.

Hua Erzhi subconsciously whispered, "Grass, you are looking for death! Come back quickly!"

Chen Yuan ignored Hua Erzhi's words, and while keeping his steps silent, he entered the master bedroom as quickly as possible.

The lamp at the head of the bed was on, so he didn't need to turn on the flashlight again. Considering that Boss Liang would come back at any time, he just stood at the door, paying attention to Boss Liang's footsteps at all times, while quickly scanning the bedroom in front of him.

Originally, Chen Yuan thought that Boss Liang's bedroom should have something special, at least the color matching of the murals or room furniture should be more individual. However, in fact, this is not the case, the environment of the whole room still gives people a very ordinary feeling, except for the larger one, this is a very normal master bedroom.

As for the traces of Yu Yan, there is nothing here.

There is a faint regret in my heart, and there is a feeling of relaxation, which is quite contradictory.

Maybe Chen Yuan really thought too much about Yu Yan's disappearance.

He slowly pulled the door to the master bedroom back to its original position, and then cautiously walked in the direction of the sofa. Footsteps in the stairwell also sounded at this time.

Hua Erzhi's frightened eyes widened, and he beckoned to Chen Yuan to make him move faster.

The hearts of both men almost mentioned the position of the throat and the eye.

Boss Liang's footsteps are getting closer and closer.

Chen Yuan naturally wanted to increase his speed, but in order to remain silent, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't move forward without any worries like Boss Liang.

He always paid attention to the situation at the staircase, and almost at the same time as Boss Liang was about to turn around, Chen Yuan's figure passed through the cover of the corner, just enough to stagger Boss Liang's line of sight.

Chen Yuan calmly went back to the sofa to hide, and checked whether there were any flaws around him as quickly as possible. Soon, Boss Liang walked out of the staircase, but he only took a few steps towards the master bedroom before he suddenly stopped.

Listening to the abruptly stopped footsteps behind them, Chen Yuan and Hua Erzhi both had a hairy feeling in their hearts. Time was moving so slowly again that they couldn't even determine what Boss Liang was stopping for, had he already noticed that someone had infiltrated his villa?

Time jumped down second by second, and I don't know how long it took, but Boss Liang's footsteps finally continued to sound. He turned off the hallway light, and after taking a few steps forward, he pushed the door to the master bedroom open and slammed it shut.

Chen Yuan and Hua Erzhi looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Gently pressing Hua Erzhi's arm, Chen Yuan motioned to him not to worry.

After maintaining this state and waiting for a few minutes, Chen Yuan quietly went out to take a look, Boss Liang had indeed entered the master bedroom, the door of the room was closed, and there was no light in the crack of the door.

Chen Yuan lowered his voice and said in Hua Erzhi's ear: "It's not sure if Boss Liang is asleep or not, let's wait a little longer before acting." ”

Hua Erzhi nodded, obviously agreeing with this view.

Estimating the time it takes for normal people to fall asleep, Chen Yuan was stunned and waited for half an hour with Hua Erzhi.

There was no sound in the entire second floor, Chen Yuan poked his head out and looked at the master bedroom, the door was still closed.

He raised his hand and looked at his watch, and said to Hua Erzhi in a low voice: "You go and open the attic door first, I will listen to his movements in front of the master bedroom door, normally speaking, he should not get up, but just in case." If he does get up again, you'll just hide in the attic. ”

At this moment of racing against time, Hua Erzhi did not have the heart to continue to talk nonsense with Chen Yuan. After the two of them confirmed their eyes, he quickly walked towards the stairs, while Chen Yuan quietly came to the door of the master bedroom from the other direction.

He held his breath and listened.

There was no sound in the master bedroom, so Boss Liang was almost certain to be asleep.

He reached out and made an OK gesture to Walter.

Walter also opened the attic door at the same time.

He slowly climbed up and took a closer look.

The structure of the attic seems to be noticeably more careful than the other rooms.

There are beds, dolls, desks, bookcases, and many other items related to young girls.

Normally, this would be a little girl's room.

Walter looked at each corner tower with a flashlight, and found nothing else.

Quietly retreating to the second floor, Chen Yuan motioned for him to go down directly.

He continued to listen to the movement in the master bedroom, and only after Hua Erzhi had reached the corner of the stairs did Chen Yuan move downstairs as quickly as possible.

The two of them hid by the window at the door, and Chen Yuan looked back at the person who was on guard, he was still looking ahead. This meant that Chen Yuan and the others needed to wait until he turned around and turned around again before they could have enough time to leave this villa.

"Just wait. ”

Chen Yuan lowered his voice.

Hua Erzhi nodded, "That attic, I think it feels a little special compared to other rooms. ”

Chen Yuan frowned slightly, "What do you say?"

"It's not that I see any traces or clues, but I feel that the layout in that attic is quite careful. There are a lot of things in it that are rarely feminine, and it should be a room where girls have lived. ”

Hua Erzhi thought as he spoke, "I feel that the attic is likely to be the room where Boss Liang's daughter lived. I guess he should love his daughter very much. ”

Chen Yuan looked at the person who was watching the night watch, and the guy still hadn't changed direction, "So what?"

Hua Erzhi scratched his hair, "I didn't say that this had anything to do with Sister Yan's disappearance, I was just curious, I don't know if his daughter had an accident, or if she didn't stay in the resort at all." ”

"There's no point in being curious. "Whether it's Uncle Zhang or Boss Liang, Chen Yuan is actually not interested in their private affairs. He just desperately needs to get to the truth and then make a proper assessment of the safety of this resort.

Hua Erzhi pouted, "You're just too bored sometimes, okay with more divergent thoughts?" His eyes rolled, as if something suddenly came to mind, "You say, is it possible that Boss Liang's daughter was originally in this resort, and then, just like Sister Yan, suddenly disappeared for some reason?"

Chen Yuan subconsciously thought of what Boss Liang had said to him at the door of the resort. He squinted his eyes and thought about it, but still felt that this idea was too fanciful, so he said to Hua Erzhi, "You have seen too much, have you? Even if his daughter is missing, it won't help us." Our concern is not who is missing, but why they are missing. ”

Hua Erzhi looked at Chen Yuan, "Why don't you find a way to ask Boss Liang?"

Chen Yuan looked up at the night watchman on the roof of the building, his tone was a little impatient, "If he knew the truth, wouldn't he have said it a long time ago?" If he deliberately concealed something, it would be pointless for me to ask." ”

With that, the night watchman finally changed direction.

Chen Yuan looked down at his watch, "Ready." ”

Hua Erzhi nodded, and did not continue to dwell on the question just now.

As the clock ticked by, the Night's Watch turned again.

Chen Yuan said softly: "Go." ”

The cold wind blew, and the two of them slowly retreated to their villas in the night.
