Chapter 52: Shen Mingyue in distress

Liu Xiaoquan will go out at a fixed time every day to buy daily necessities and food needed for three meals a day, after a few days of observation, Shen Mingyue also knows when he goes out, when to deliver food, when to stand in the yard in a daze and other things, she feels that taking advantage of Liu Xiaoquan's half an hour to go out to buy things is enough for herself to escape.

Of course, the key question is how to escape? Shen Mingyue was locked in the room, the door was locked from the outside, and the window was also sealed by horizontal iron railings, she was a girl, naturally she couldn't kick it open, and she didn't plan to use such a violent method, otherwise she would have tried it a long time ago. Shen Mingyue found that this old mansion was old enough, the roof was not made of cement walls, but the old-fashioned tiles used, if you could climb on it and lift the tiles, you could escape, but Liu Xiaoquan was not stupid, he moved all the things in the house as much as possible, leaving a bed and a table, no matter which one she stood on, Shen Mingyue could not go to the roof, let alone climb up.

In the past few days, whether it is soft grinding or hard foaming, whether it is strict reasoning or gentle talking, anyway, if you can think of a way, Shen Mingyue has used it on Liu Xiaoquan, but in the end she was unmoved, Liu Xiaoquan just refused to let himself out, but he did not make any moves to hurt himself for the time being. But the observation of these days also made Shen Mingyue feel more and more uneasy, Liu Xiaoquan's mental state is unpredictable, one will be normal and one will be chaotic, one will be happy and one will be very sad, keep switching, and every day those abnormal behaviors are more and more, she feels that Liu Xiaoquan has slowly entered an uncontrollable state, it is difficult to guarantee that he will impulsively hurt himself one day, and if he is a murderer, it is very likely to harm others again. Therefore, Shen Mingyue strengthened her belief that it was imperative to leave this old house as soon as possible and report to Beiting. Regardless of whether Liu Xiaoquan is a murderer or not, his current situation is worrying, and no one knows what abnormal actions he will make.

Shen Mingyue looked around, there were indeed only beds and tables that were not too high in the room, but she immediately aimed at something else, it was not in the room, or something specially left to prevent her from escaping, that was the horizontal fence on the outside of the window.

The windows of the old house are large, and in addition to the large windows that are about as tall as a person and can be opened to the inside, there are fixed glass windows on top of them to increase the amount of light. Shen Mingyue opened the window on the lower side first, and held the fence with her hand, which was made of iron and very firm. She tore off the sheets that had been laid on the bed again, tied one end to the fence and the other to her waist, and then stood on the platform of the window, and tried to jump down a few times, until she was sure that the iron fence was strong enough to bear her weight.

Immediately after, Shen Mingyue made a lot of effort to move the small bed under the window, and then lifted the table to the bed. In this way, standing on the table, she could reach the glass window above, and she found the porcelain bowl that had brought in the food, and smashed it against the glass. Once, twice, the porcelain bowl shook violently, and Shen Mingyue's hands trembled with shock, but the glass window was still intact. Shen Mingyue was helpless, and exchanged for a bigger bowl of soup, she stood on the table, aimed at the glass window, took a breath, and then smashed it down with all her might.

The big soup bowl immediately shattered, and the fragments were scattered on the bed, and it also cut Shen Mingyue's palm, and it immediately turned red. But she didn't care, because the glass finally showed a model of a spider web under the impact, Shen Mingyue knew that this was a signal that it was about to be unbearable, so she continued to hit the bowl and even chopsticks hard, and finally, the upper glass window was finally broken by her, and part of the glass slag fell out, and part of it was also left on the bed.

Shen Mingyue didn't care about the pain in her hands, after she cleaned the glass that remained on it, she was finally able to tie the sheet to the top of the highest horizontal fence, which was level with the corner of the roof, and there were tiles on it.

Because the glass was smashed and delayed for too long, Shen Mingyue estimated that it was almost time for Liu Xiaoquan to come back from shopping, and now that the glass was also smashed, he was bound to ride a tiger, and he must flee as soon as possible, otherwise he would definitely be discovered, and it was unknown what kind of situation he would face at that time.

According to the plan, after tying herself, she stood on the table placed on the bed and stared at her feet, the person flew into the air, Shen Mingyue's two hands tightly grasped the sheet, and now the sheet was tied to the horizontal fence as if it had become a safety rope, she had undergone relevant training. So, her feet were pressed against the wall, her hands were gripping the sheets, and she crawled upwards step by step, which was not difficult for Shen Mingyue, but because her hands were cut, it was still painful to pull the sheets. But she couldn't take any care of it, and continued to climb painfully, until at last she reached a level level with the fence, and the tiles above it were within reach, and she immediately moved them with her intact hands, and threw them into the room one by one. Shen Mingyue finally saw the sun outside, she continued to work hard, and finally removed a large piece of tile above her head, which was roughly able to bear the width of her body. In fact, it would have been easier for her to get out of the way if she could move it out of the way, but there was not much time, second, her injured hand holding on to the sheet could not support it, and more importantly, she was still worried that the roof would collapse due to the destruction of the structure, which might bury her alive. So, at about the same time, Shen Mingyue stopped, she withdrew her uninjured hand, fixed her body slightly, took a few deep breaths, and then stared at the wall by the window with her feet, and her whole mind protruded, and came to the roof, Shen Mingyue then used her hand to support the side of the beam that did not affect the tiles and sides, and finally dragged her whole body to the roof.

Nailed it!

Shen Mingyue finally left the old house under house arrest, she didn't dare to stay longer, she immediately jumped into the alley, and then found a way to leave. She thinks that her crisis has been lifted, and the first thing at present is to inform Beiting of the news, after all, she has been missing for so long, and they must be in a hurry. However, this place is far away from the city, her mobile phone and wallet have been taken away by Liu Xiaoquan, there is no communication tool and no money, which makes her feel that it is difficult to move an inch, if she walks back, I am afraid that it will be dark, and she is also injured, it is indeed not so safe, and Liu Xiaoquan's situation can not wait any longer.

She was a little helpless, so she decided to do something not so glamorous, she saw a small shop with a public phone on the side of the road, so she walked over, told the boss that she was going to call, and then dialed out without daring to look at the boss. Shen Mingyue has no money, after this phone call, it is estimated that the boss will trouble her, but the matter is urgent, and the phone still has to be called first.

But what disappointed Shen Mingyue, Liu Zichen's phone couldn't be connected, and there were four or five calls, she was puzzled, thinking that maybe Sister Zichen was on a mission, so she called Li Yiting instead. However, this call still couldn't be connected, Shen Mingyue felt a little strange at this time, how could it be so coincidental? It seems that there has never been a situation where they can't be found at the same time before, let alone can't get through the phone. She suddenly felt that there was something strange about this place, as if someone was quietly following her nearby.

Liu Xiaoquan's hometown is a relatively remote countryside, and for Shen Mingyue, who grew up in the city since she was a child, she already has a natural sense of fear and strangeness, but now she can't get through on the phone, which makes her even more overwhelmed. At this time, she found that the location of the small shop she was in was also relatively remote, and there were almost no people next to her, so she decided to go to a crowded place, if the other party really planned to be unfavorable to herself, in a crowded place, it should not be very easy to start, this is Shen Mingyue's experience accumulated since many years of work, so she didn't say anything, she directly put down the phone and left the shop, she didn't hear the boss open from beginning to end, and she didn't want to take another look, after all, the phone didn't get through, and there was no problem with phone bills, Shen Mingyue was quite calm, she just walked normally, and then looked for a relatively lively place here with intuition。

Maybe it's because of the good sense of direction, Shen Mingyue really found a lively place very quickly, and it is also a market in the village, in the countryside, this place is the most prosperous and lively, and there are the most people. Although today is not the day to go to the market, there are still many villagers who are stationed here all year round to buy and sell things, which is in stark contrast to the small shop. Facing so many living fellows in front of her, Shen Mingyue was a lot more relieved, she slowed down, pretending to be picking up goods on the side of the road, but actually thinking about the next step. Because the phone couldn't get through, she was still stuck in this remote place, and there didn't seem to be a particularly good way to do it now.

Shen Mingyue, who had always been bold, suddenly sprouted a kind of fearless courage, she really wanted to determine who the other party was, especially to confirm whether that person was Liu Xiaoquan. Although it was a bit risky to do so, it made Shen Mingyue's heart very apprehensive, but her curiosity about the truth drove her to take this step bravely. Therefore, Shen Mingyue made up her mind to risk her life and check out.

Shen Mingyue was still swaggering above the bazaar, she pretended not to know that she was being followed, look here, look there, and then deliberately walked to a relatively remote area of the bazaar. There were only a few scattered stalls selling things, and there were few customers, and the view was wide, and she saw that on the right side of the place, there was a small river that did not look shallow. For Shen Mingyue, she is very skilled in water and has a lot of confidence in herself, so she decided to wait here while watching and seeing what she can find.

After waiting for a while, Shen Mingyue never found any suspicious signs, there were very few villagers who came here to buy things, four or five came in an hour, looking at their dress and the accent they heard, they should be local people, there must be no problem. And those who sold things, seeing that there was nothing to do, withdrew early, and in the end, on the edge of this bazaar, only Shen Mingyue was left.

Could it be that there is something wrong with his sixth sense? Obviously there is no problem, but such a suspicious ghost, Shen Ming thought that he might be frightened by Liu Xiaoquan, since there is nothing suspicious, he still has to find a way to contact Sister Zichen and them.

She planned to turn back and return to the market first, but at this moment, Shen Mingyue noticed a young man emerging from a distance, who was wearing a sweatshirt and walking sneakily, looking around as she went. Shen Mingyue was shocked, the person who came was none other than Liu Xiaoquan?

At the same time, the young man who seemed to be looking for something also discovered Shen Mingyue, he didn't hesitate, he was crazy and rushed towards the place where Shen Mingyue was standing, Shen Mingyue spontaneously felt an extreme sense of fear. She was choked by the sudden fear and inexplicable despair, and she couldn't keep up with it, not only did she think about it, so she ran in the direction of the small river on the right.

The man was in hot pursuit, and the speed was extremely fast, and he didn't run far to catch up, while Shen Mingyue had no way out, and she herself was optimistic about the way out, that is, this seemingly calm river. Since the other party had already caught up, Shen Mingyue naturally didn't want to be caught, so she didn't have time to think about it, so she jumped into the river in a hurry. However, Shen Mingyue's judgment was seriously wrong, this small river was not deep at all, and the undercurrent was very fast, and the bottom of the river was covered with hidden sharp stones. After Shen Mingyue jumped into the water, she hit the stones at the bottom of the river because of the action of gravity, because the river was not deep, the buoyancy was insufficient, and the resistance was not enough, her downward force was not much better than jumping on the ground, and the force generated by the impact was very large.

Shen Mingyue's leg hit a stone, and then she felt a lot of pain, and it was estimated that she was injured, but before she could check it, she was swept down by the torrent underwater. She quickly wanted to get up, but she couldn't use the strength under her feet, and the water flow was very fast, so that Shen Mingyue couldn't stand on her feet at all, and she was filled with a lot of water in the panic. Since she couldn't stand still, Shen Mingyue planned to leave by swimming, but it was precisely because the water was not deep that it was very difficult to float in shallow water, let alone swim out of the distance. So after coming and going, she couldn't walk, she couldn't swim, Shen Mingyue was almost trapped in the river, and her physical strength gradually ran out.

What made Shen Mingyue even more panicked was that when she looked back at the shore, she saw that Liu Xiaoquan, who was following closely, also jumped into the water without hesitation, it seemed that he was determined not to let go of himself today. Shen Mingyue naturally didn't want to be caught, so she struggled to escape in the water and crawled downstream, taking advantage of the terrain to barely swim some distance, but Liu Xiaoquan was getting closer and closer. She didn't dare to turn back, and she didn't have the strength to care about others, so she could only move desperately downstream, hoping that Liu Xiaoquan could be trapped by the stones or water at the bottom of the river, so that she could have a chance to escape.
