Chapter 95: The Secret Passage
"Big brother! How did you get here! Are you okay with your injuries? ”
When Zhao Yun and the three of them saw Liu Bei actually appear in front of their eyes, they rubbed their eyes vigorously in disbelief. After confirming that it is true, immediately go up and hug it.
"Haha~! It's not a small injury! Look, didn't I come to you like no one else? ”
Liu Bei laughed, once again luckily protected his chest, and then patted his chest, indicating that he was very good.
Only then did everyone put their minds at ease, and then told Liu Bei the results of their investigation.
"You say, those employees said that the guard had been in his office at the time of the crime and never came out?"
"That's right, that's what the employees at the horse farm say. At the time of the crime, they were either feeding the horses elsewhere or washing them elsewhere. I have seen each other more or less.
Only the caretaker of the horse farm has been in his office tent and has not come out. But the staff said it was a common thing, and the guards often stayed in the tent for hours, or even a day. So they didn't find it strange. ”
Liu Bei showed a thoughtful expression.
Someone can stay in a tent for so long without coming out, doesn't he need to make rounds? Don't need convenience or anything like that?
And at the time of the crime, the obvious restlessness of the horses was heard far away, shouldn't he, a guard, come out and ask the reason?
All of this means that there must be a problem with the keepers of this horse farm.
So Liu Bei told Zhao Yun his thoughts, and Zhao Yun and others also agreed, and they also suspected that the keeper of this horse farm was either the perpetrator or the accomplice of the perpetrator. In short, he must have been involved in this case!
So Liu Bei discussed, and found an excuse to go to the office tent of the horse farm guard, maybe there were some clues.
However, Zhao Yun told Liu Bei about the guard who said that he couldn't disturb him, otherwise he would be kicked out of the racecourse.
Liu Bei suddenly snorted coldly and said: "It's really a thief, if he's fine, why are you afraid that we will go to his tent to find him!" ”
But since the guards had already spoken, they certainly couldn't go to his tent openly.
But it can't be open, you can come to the dark! The yang can't work, you can come to the yin!
So Liu Bei quietly whispered a few words in the ears of Zhao Yun and others. made the latter admire: "It's worthy of being a big brother, this idea is really high!" ”
Liu Bei told the three of them to let Zhao Yun go to Wuhuan University first and bring the principal Wuyan with him. Tell Uyan that they have discovered the suspicion of the horse farm guard, and they need the cooperation of Uyan, the principal. Then let him come to the horse farm and drag the guard, so that he and the others could sneak into the guard's tent to find evidence. This is the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain!
So Zhao Yun quickly left the racecourse to find the principal Wuyan.
And Liu Bei took Jian Yongxian and Yu Fu to the vicinity of the tent of the detention center, pretending to search around, but in fact they were ready to sneak into the tent at any time.
After a while, Zhao Yun took Wu Yan to the gate of the racecourse.
"Go and call your guards out of me! I'm in a hurry to find him, let him move quickly! ”
Uyan shouted to the staff guarding the door, who immediately trotted out the guard.
"Headmaster, is there something urgent about you calling me over in such a hurry?" The guard said a little panting because he was running over.
"How's it going with what I asked you to investigate? Have you found the suspect? ”
"Principal Qiqi, our employees here love such divine beasts and horses like pearls in their hands, and they will never make any moves to harm these divine beasts. So~"
"So you've got nothing until now!"
Uyan interrupted the guard, glared at him and continued, "You really can! I just want to ask you, have you given me a good investigation into Liu Bei's assassination during this time? ”
"Headmaster, I assure you, I've definitely scrutinized these staff. It's just that they don't have any motive and evidence to commit the crime at all, so it can't be done by our internal people at all! ”
"Oh, then come with me and tell me more about how you investigated. And how they have no motive and no evidence! ”
Uyan waved and called the guard to the side of the staff lounge. Then he began to listen to the guard's tirade.
And Liu Bei, on his side, immediately took the opportunity to get into his tent after discovering that the guards were called away.
In the vast space, there is a wooden table and a row of cabinets full of documents. And in the middle is a large animal skin as a carpet.
"Quick, search carefully and see if there is anything suspicious." Liu Bei ordered.
So Jian Yongxian Yufu walked to the row of cabinets and looked through them carefully.
Liu Bei walked to the wooden table and looked through the documents and books on it.
"Explanations about horse health, horse feed improvement programs, and the mystery of the beast becoming stronger."
I didn't expect this guard to like to read, didn't he go out to study these books! Liu Bei said and opened the book, wanting to see if there were any clues such as notes mixed in it.
But the moment he opened it, Liu Bei's face turned red with a "swish".
He hurriedly closed the book, and then tried to calm his restless heart.
This stinky shameless thing! He actually looked at the photo during working hours. And it's still so explicit! I really don't know who appointed a person like him to be a guard, that person is really blind!
After secretly scolding the person who appointed the guard, Liu Bei rummaged through other things again.
"Huh?"
Soon Liu Bei found a small medicine bottle, which contained a pale red liquid and didn't know what it was for.
I opened it and sniffed it gently at the tip of my nose, and found that the liquid had a faint fragrance, which was very good.
Strange, what does this guard do with such a thing? When perfume bubble girl? Or is it used as a deodorant?
But there's no such aroma here! Then this is unlikely to be a deodorant, thinking of the books on the table, Liu Bei thinks that this bottle of perfume is used as a pickle girl!
Sure enough, it's an unscrupulous guard!
Liu Bei sighed, and once again despised the guy who accepted this person as a guard.
Liu Bei and the others searched here for a long time, but they didn't find anything valuable. It's nothing more than discovering some of the guard's privacy, such as his explicit photo book, some toilet paper, and some hidden tonics.
"Damn! What is this guard doing here all day? What a mess this is! The guards stay here alone all day just to read those unsightly books? He doesn't have anything to do? ”
Liu Bei stood on the animal skin, stomped his feet angrily, and heard a muffled sound of "bang" coming from under his feet.
"Huh?"
Liu Bei hurriedly asked Jian Yong to lift the carpet, and then found a wooden floor that was different from other grassy fields appeared in front of him.
Liu Bei tried to knock it with his hand, and heard the sound of "bang" coming, proving that it was hollow inside.
Forcefully moving the plank away, a downward staircase appeared in front of my eyes.
"Big brother, this~"
Xian Yufu looked at Liu Bei, waiting for his instructions.
"Hehe~, a guard actually made a secret grid and dug a secret room! There must be some hidden secrets in this. Let's go down and have a look! ”
Saying that, Liu Bei took out a flashlight from the table next to him and walked down first.
Under the dim light of the flashlight, as Liu Bei slowly walked to the secret room below, he heard the sound of "stepping" constantly coming from his feet, lingering in his ears.
Well! It's a bit of a horror movie.
Liu Bei laughed at himself, came to the underground, and looked around at the environment with a flashlight.
saw an endless tunnel that appeared in front of Liu Bei.
Liu Bei suddenly looked coldly at the secret passage in front of him that he didn't know where to lead, and said softly: "Yo! I didn't expect that there was a secret passage under the feet of our guards. It seems that my assassination has absolutely nothing to do with him! ”
"That's right! Didn't they say that there was no trace of the murderer around the racecourse, and with this secret passage, how could they still find the murderer! By the time they searched, I guess the killer had already escaped through this secret passage! ”
"Let's go, see where the front leads. I think my killer escaped through this secret passage. Let's see where we lead, and maybe we can find any clues left by the killer. ”
After Liu Bei finished speaking, he took the lead and wanted to ask the depths of the darkness and walk.
In the damp and dark underground, Liu Bei took Jian Yongxian and Yufu two brothers, walking with only the light of the flashlight in their hands.
It's getting more and more like a horror movie, and if there is something unexpected at this time and something else, then it's even more like.
Liu Bei thought boredly, and suddenly smelled a faint fragrance, and then heard a "click" sound. Liu Bei instantly got goosebumps.
No way! No, I'm just talking, not for real!
But then I heard Jian Yong say a little embarrassed: "That, I seem to have stepped on something just now!" ”
Liu Bei instantly shone a flashlight at Jian Yong's feet, and found a small broken medicine bottle appearing at his feet.
Xian Yufu suddenly laughed and said: "Oh~, Jian Yong, you stepped on other people's things!" ”
Then I saw Jian Yong shaking his head desperately and said, "I didn't step on it, he was originally bad, and what I stepped on just now was only a fragment of it." ”
Xian Yufu also wanted to make fun of Jian Yong, but he heard a loud shout from the side:
"That's it! You two don't make a fuss. It's important to get down to business! ”
Liu Bei stopped the two of them from playing, and then looked at the broken medicine bottle. I only felt that the medicine bottle was a little familiar, so I couldn't help but walk over and take a flashlight and take a closer look.
"Huh? Isn't this the perfume bottle I found on the guard's table? How can there be here! ”
Liu Bei picked up a relatively intact fragment in confusion, and after a closer look, he saw that there was still a lot of light red liquid left on it. I leaned close to the tip of my nose and smelled it, and there was a faint fragrance.
Well! It's exactly the same vial I found in the guard's office.
Liu Bei nodded affirmatively, and then said to Jian Yongxian Yufu: "It seems that this bottle has just been broken, and the liquid in it has not completely volatilized, and the aroma is still very strong.
It must have been a while ago that someone passed through here and smashed this bottle here! ”
Speaking of this, Liu Bei smiled and said, "I think we're on the right track!" The murderer must have escaped from here, and this bottle must have been broken in anger when he realized that he hadn't killed me.
Looks like the liquid in this bottle should have a effect I didn't know about! ”
Liu Bei couldn't help but speed up his pace as he spoke, and ran quickly towards the depths of the darkness.
After a long time, a ladder sliding up appeared in front of Liu Bei.
"We're here!"
Liu Bei stopped and walked slowly on the steps, as if he was afraid of making a noise to scare away the murderer who didn't know who it was.
With a "squeak", the wooden board on his head was gently moved away by Liu Bei, and he saw Liu Bei holding his breath and carefully poking his head out.
Then he looked around, and there were some withered straws everywhere he looked. After not finding any danger, he motioned to Jian Yongxian and Yu Fu to follow them up.
Then I saw Liu Bei jump out suddenly, and I heard a "poof" sound under my feet. Liu Bei only felt as if he had stepped on something slimy, and when he resumed his normal breathing, he also smelled a foul smell.
Liu Bei hurriedly looked down and couldn't help but scold angrily: "Damn, the guard of this horse farm is sick!" Dig a secret passage in a convenient place for someone. He is not afraid to step on Yoneda Ko! ”
Then I quickly found a clean grass and rubbed the soles of my shoes.
And Jian Yong, who had not yet come out under the secret passage, rarely heard of it, and they who were going to jump out directly like the eldest brother, they couldn't help but walk up cautiously one by one.
Sure enough, as soon as they came out, they saw that the grass around them was actually filthy. There is almost no place for them to stay!
"Big brother, how many people can create such a magnificent scene together!"
Xian Yufu was frightened by the scene in front of him, because this kind of "big scene" is definitely not something that one person can create. At least a few dozen people!
Liu Bei looked at Xian Yufu embarrassedly, and said secretly in his heart: Compared with this, should we be more concerned about why this secret passage leads to a place that is convenient for a bunch of people!
Turning off the flashlight and putting it away, Liu Bei covered his nose and looked around carefully.
There was a small tent in front of the meeting, and not far from it there was a sign that said Public Health Area.
I'll go, it's really a convenient place for people!
That tent should be the bathroom built by Wuhuan University. It's just that the bathroom is clearly in front of you, why is there so much dirt behind it? Can't these people wait?
However, after seeing the amount of dirt around him, Liu Bei sighed, maybe he really can't wait! This~, this is really a lot!
Because the surroundings here are so smelly, Liu Bei doesn't have the heart to know what is going on here. I saw the three of them find a direction with relatively little filth, and fled here as if fleeing.
It wasn't until they were on the grass a few hundred meters away from the secret passage that Liu Bei and Jian Yongxian Yufu stopped and took a big breath of the fresh air here.
"Whew~! I've never felt so good about this smellless air! ”
Liu Bei sighed softly, and Jian Yongxian Yufu echoed: "Yes! We didn't expect the air we breathe to be so good. ”
And just when a few people were lamenting the hard-won fresh air, they heard someone suddenly shout at them: "Hey! What do you do? This is a training place for Wuhuan high school students, so let me leave as soon as I have nothing to do. Otherwise, I will arrest you all according to the crime of conspiracy!" ”
Liu Bei couldn't help but look back when he heard this, and saw a bunch of Wuhuan students not far away tempering their bodies in the cold wind.
