Zhang Minglei lowered his head and remained silent.

"Why? Isn't it easy to answer? Isn't it frank and open, and there are no secrets?" Shui Bingyu asked coldly.

"There are some things that are hard to tell you right now. But, I promise it has nothing to do with Luo Dan's disappearance!" Zhang Minglei said in a low voice.

"Looks like you don't want me to know. But it doesn't matter, there are no eternal secrets in the world, if you don't want people to know, you can't do anything unless you don't know! Then please answer my second question, did Luo Dan call you at one o'clock in the morning last night?" Shui Bingyu continued to ask.

The shock on Zhang Minglei's face was more intense than when he heard the first question.

Looking at Zhang Minglei's expression, Shui Bingyu already had an answer in his heart.

She didn't wait for Zhang Minglei to answer, and asked reluctantly: "Why did she mention Jiang Xiaoou on the phone? Also, what does she mean by the secret way?"

After bowing his head and being silent for five minutes, Zhang Minglei finally raised his head and said with determination: "Okay, I'll answer your two questions." ”

"That's for the best. Shui Bingyu still said very coldly.

"Luo Dan and I have met a few times individually, but the reason is not what you guessed. The fact is that Luo Dan feels that Wang Xiaodong may be having an affair. So she approached me, hoping that I could help her follow Wang Xiaodong and find evidence of his cheating. You know, I didn't really like the police profession, so I changed careers after graduating from college. So, at first, I didn't want to help her do this kind of thing, but Luo Dan was our college friend, I saw that she was very painful, and I sympathized with her, so I finally agreed. The few times we met, I reported to her the results of the investigation into the matter. Zhang Minglei said slowly.

"Then have you found evidence of Wang Xiaodong's cheating?" Shui Bingyu continued to ask.

"Found it. Zhang Minglei replied.

"Then he really has a lover outside, who is it?" Shui Bingyu then asked.

"Jiang Xiaoou. Zhang Minglei was silent for a moment and slowly said the name.

"What? Wang Xiaodong's lover turned out to be Jiang Xiaoou!" Shui Bingyu was surprised.

"It's hard to believe, isn't it? When I told Luo Dan, she didn't believe it either! After graduating from college, you went on to graduate school, and you had less contact with Luo Dan. Over the years, the relationship between Jiang Xiaoou and Luo Dan has become closer and closer, and the two have become good girlfriends who talk about everything. Therefore, Luo Dan has never wanted to believe that it was his best friend who got together with her husband!" Zhang Minglei said.

"Then why do you want to call Jiang Xiaoou on this trip?" Shui Bingyu asked puzzled.

"Luo Dan was reluctant to believe that Jiang Xiaoou was her husband's lover, and I couldn't capture a photo of the two of them having a tryst together. You know, we are all studying criminal investigation, although you are the only one who is engaged in the profession of a police officer now, but they still have anti-tracking skills. Therefore, Luo Dan discussed with me and planned to organize such a trip, called you and Jiang Xiaoou, and wanted you to help find some clues about Jiang Xiaoou's affair with Wang Xiaodong. When I heard it, I thought it was a good arrangement, not only to help her, but also, you know, I also have my own selfishness," Zhang Minglei said.

"What did Luo Dan's phone call tell you before he disappeared?" Shui Bingyu interrupted what Zhang Minglei was about to say and hurriedly asked the next question.

Luo Dan told me that she found that Wang Xiaodong and Jiang Xiaoou had gone up to the attic the night before. Last night, she saw that Wang Xiaodong didn't go back to the room, so she planned to go up to the attic to have a look, although Wang Xiaodong and Jiang Xiaoou were not on it, but Luo Dan said that she found a secret passage above the attic! She told me that she wanted to wait for dawn and let me go to the attic with her to have a look. I told her not to act rashly, and to wait for everyone to wake up in the morning and discuss it together. She said yes and hung up. Later, it was Jiang Xiaoou who found out that she was missing. Zhang Minglei told Shui Bingyu everything.

"Jiang Xiaoou followed Luo Dan to the attic last night, didn't Luo Dan say that he had found her?" asked Shui Bingyu.

"No, Luo Dan didn't say. Jiang Xiaoou actually followed Luo Dan to climb up to the attic?, what did she want to do?" Zhang Minglei asked in surprise.

"She said she had sleepwalking and didn't know she had climbed up the attic last night!" Shui Bingyu said.

"The ghost only believes what she said!" Zhang Minglei said fiercely.

"Then you must suspect that Luo Dan's disappearance is related to Jiang Xiaoou?" asked Shui Bingyu.

"Don't doubt who else can she suspect? By the way, there is also that Wang Xiaodong! Last night he had to ask me for a drink and chat in the living room, and I didn't think he had much to drink, so he said that he couldn't do it, and fell asleep on the sofa in the living room! Now listening to what you say, Jiang Xiaoou also climbed up to the attic last night, could it be that they still wanted to have a tryst in the attic? They were discovered by Luo Dan? Fortunately, they joined forces to harm Luo Dan? However, I can't figure out how they made Luo Dan disappear?" Zhang Minglei said angrily.

"In such weather, it is difficult to make people disappear, but it is not difficult, you see how many feet of snow are outside, how many things can be buried? Although you have rummaged with a shovel, what if you hide it farther?" Shui Bingyu said.

She was also frightened by her words, could it be that she was also assuming that Luo Dan had been killed!

She suddenly felt her hands and feet cold!

Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open.

It was Liu Ling who broke in.

"Are you finished!" Liu Ling was already hysterical.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Minglei saw Liu Ling's abnormality and asked with concern.

"She's gone, too!, she's gone!" Liu Ling said in a trembling voice.

"Who?" asked Shui Bingyu and Zhang Minglei in unison.

"Jiang Xiaoou!" After Liu Ling finally said these three words in a trembling voice, she couldn't bear it anymore and cried in fright.

Zhang Minglei was the first to run out of the room and went straight to Jiang Xiaoou's guest room.

Shui Bingyu hurriedly pulled Liu Ling, and then followed.

Wang Xiaodong and Wang Mingyuan were already standing in Jiang Xiaoou's guest room, their faces full of anxiety and panic.

Especially Wang Xiaodong's expression was about to collapse.

The mysterious disappearance of his wife and lover one after another, Shui Bingyu can suddenly understand that Wang Xiaodong is now in a state of collapse.

The quilt on the bed in the guest room was spread haphazardly, as if it had just woken up. There is a pair of slippers under the bed, indicating that Jiang Xiaoou should still be wearing boots when he disappeared. The down jacket hung on the back of the chair, another indication that she might not have gone out.

"Which of you was the first to notice that Jiang Xiaoou was missing?" Shui Bingyu asked.

"It's me. Wang Xiaodong said tremblingly.

"What is the matter with you coming to her?" Shui Bingyu had actually guessed, and asked pretending not to know.

"I want to ask her again, don't you remember climbing to the attic with Luo Dan last night?" Wang Xiaodong made an excuse.

Shui Bingyu knew that he was lying, but he didn't expose him at this time.

"Then, when you got to the room, you found that Jiang Xiaoou was gone?" Shui Bingyu continued to ask.

"Yes, then, I went to the living room again and there was still no Jiang Xiaoou, and later, I went to Wang Mingyuan and Liu Ling's room and told them about Jiang Xiaoou's disappearance, and they also helped to search in the house again, but they didn't find Jiang Xiaoou's figure, so Liu Ling went to find you and Zhang Minglei. Wang Xiaodong said.

"Where were you all just now? Didn't you see Jiang Xiaoou? Didn't you hear anyone going out?" Shui Bingyu continued to ask.

"I kept looking at the computer in my room and didn't hear anything. Wang Mingyuan replied.

"I've been knocking on the floor in the living room and kitchen to see if there's any mechanism. Liu Ling said while choking.

"In this way, if Jiang Xiaoou goes out, you will definitely see it. Shui Bingyu asked.

"Of course. Liu Ling said categorically.

Shui Bingyu listened to the statements of Wang Xiaodong, Wang Mingyuan and Liu Ling, and the three of them, when Jiang Xiaoou disappeared, were in three different corners of the entire villa, unable to testify for each other.

Then Jiang Xiaoou's disappearance may be related to any of them.

What's even more terrifying is what if it has nothing to do with any of the three of them!

Could it be that there is someone else in this villa?

Who did Luo Dan and Jiang Xiaoou's disappearance?

So who could it be?

Shui Bingyu gradually felt that the danger they were in at the moment was probably not just a heavy snow closing the mountains and a power outage.

Luo Dan and Jiang Xiaoou disappeared mysteriously one after another, and Shui Bingyu had a hunch that several of them would continue to disappear mysteriously, which was the real danger!

"From now on, if we want to live, we have to be together at all times. Shui Bingyu said solemnly.

"Since we can be sure that Jiang Xiaoou didn't go out, let's continue to look for it in the house!

So, Zhang Minglei, Wang Xiaodong, Wang Mingyuan and Liu Ling automatically began to disband, intending to go separately.

"Don't be separated! We're five of us looking for it together. Shui Bingyu said loudly.

The other four people were stunned for a moment, Wang Mingyuan shook his head and said, "You're not joking, are you? How can you find it if you don't separate?" Besides, this villa is not very big, what is really going to happen, just shout no and it's over?"

"Scream?Did you hear Luo Dan and Jiang Xiaoou when they disappeared?" asked Shui Bingyu.

"Shui Bingyu makes sense, she is a policeman, let's listen to her arrangement, let's find the insurance points together!" Zhang Minglei thought about it and said.

So, the five of them began to search the house together.

Of course, it's better to start with each room.

In any corner of the room where they could hide, even the floor tiles, they knocked them one by one, and there was still no trace of Jiang Xiaoou.

Seeing that several people were depressed and had no fighting spirit.

Shui Bingyu suddenly thought of the secret passage in the attic that Luo Dan mentioned on the phone!

Could it be that the mystery of this villa is there!

"Did you just go to the attic to look for it?" Shui Bingyu asked.

"No, we didn't go to the attic just now, we didn't find it in the room, we hurried to tell you in a hurry. Wang Mingyuan said.

So, Shui Bingyu said excitedly: "Let's go, let's go to the attic together!"

"What's there to see about that little place?" Wang Xiaodong didn't seem to want to go.

Shui Bingyu thought to himself, he might be afraid that everyone would find out the traces of his tryst with Jiang Xiaoou on it.

Zhang Minglei also suddenly thought of the secret passage in the attic that Luo Dan mentioned to him on the phone.

"Let's go to the attic and look for it again!" he beckoned.

"If you don't want to go up, it's okay, as long as you're not afraid, stay alone!" Shui Bingyu coldly threw Wang Xiaodong a sentence.
