Chapter 22: The Underground Villa

In front of the secret door, the contradiction between She Caixiang and Ma Fei broke out again, Chen Taidong glanced at the torture technique, didn't say a word, turned around and entered first. But his meaning at this glance is very clear, it is to let the torture solve it properly.

Of course, he wanted to go with Ma Fei the most, although he was wary of everyone present, but everything he experienced along the way made him have an inexplicable good impression of Ma Fei, which he had never had before, whether it was in She Caixiang or He Chenxue.

Perhaps, there was indeed something close to love between him and She Caixiang, and he was even willing to believe that during the time when he was alone with She Caixiang, every time She Caixiang hugged him and said those three words to him, she loved herself, but he couldn't be sure what she thought in her heart when She Caixiang's hands left his body.

Remembering the best memories, not the most painful experiences, is one of the motivations for everyone to live.

And compared to He Chenxue, in fact, everything has not begun, the relationship between the two is just a germinated seed, and the most important thing is that He Chenxue left all questions in his heart, even if there was a trace of warmth, but this warmth is even more unreal in the later days recalled than the memories with She Caixiang.

"Ma Fei, you and Sikong Yan stay." After the torture was finished, he glanced at She Caixiang and motioned for her to go in.

She Caixiang glared at Ma Fei, walked into the secret door, and said to Ma Fei in a low voice: "Pay attention to safety, the mobile phone should have no signal after going down, if there is anything, you can only improvise." ”

Ma Fei said: "It's okay, you go, there is me outside, I will always stay here." ”

After the torture technique entered the secret door, Ma Fei and Sikong Yan moved a cabinet next to it and placed it in the position of the secret doorway, just in case the secret door closed, this cabinet could be blocked, because there was really nothing else in the kitchen that could be used to block the secret door.

After looking around the kitchen, Ma Fei said to Sikong Yan: "Go to the living room or basement, find something sturdy, preferably metal, and put it here, I will wait for you here." ”

Sikong Yan was very reluctant: "Why do you want me to go?" ”

"First, this is your godfather's house, he is not here, you are half a master, there is no reason for the master to let the guests work, right?" Ma Fei frowned and said, "Second, I'm a woman, you're a man, a bit of a gentleman, right?" ”

Sikong Yan immediately retorted: "The first point is that the guest is as he pleases, and second, men and women are equal, and women can also hold up half the sky!" ”

After listening to his words and looking at his appearance again, Ma Fei couldn't help but smile: "Okay, I'll go and find it, you are guarding here, okay?" ”

Sikong Yan nodded against the refrigerator door, and Ma Fei shook his head and walked away.

Chen Taidong, Xingshu, and She Caixiang in the secret door walked down the long staircase, although there will be a light at the top of the stairwell every other distance, but the wattage of the bulb is not large, and the light spreads, on the contrary, people's vision becomes more blurred.

The reason why it is said to be a long staircase is because the staircase is rotating, very narrow and steep, and it is necessary to keep a distance between the three people, otherwise, if one of the people walking at the end accidentally slips, he will fall down and knock the person in front of him directly.

"Torture, did you find it, there are two places in this staircase that are very strange." Chen Taidong touched the wall and walked slowly, "On the left wall, there will be a handle embedded in the wall every three meters, and the edge of each step of the stairs is inlaid with stainless steel bars, and these stainless steel bars are sharpened. ”

The torture nod, She Caixiang in the back subconsciously took out her mobile phone to illuminate the stairs under her feet, looked carefully, and sure enough, she found that the stainless steel strip on the edge was sharpened incomparably, even if she was wearing pants, if the strength was enough, she would directly cut the pants and cut the skin of the legs.

After walking slowly down for a while, Chen Taidong stopped, raised his hand to signal the two behind him to be quiet, and said after a long time: "I heard someone singing." ”

Xingshu and She Caixiang stood there and listened quietly, and indeed heard a song coming intermittently from below, but it didn't seem to be a complete song, it sounded weird.

She Caixiang said: "Now we are about 10 meters above the ground. ”

"Nope." Chen Taidong denied, "Up to 7 meters, I paid attention to this villa when I was in the back garden before, the foundation of the villa is very solid, probably because of the relationship between the construction of the tunnel below, the entire house structure has been lifted up at least 3 meters, otherwise there is no need to enter the door with such high stairs." ”

"This means that the basement below should be very large. ”

Chen Taidong nodded: "Anyway, be careful, and it's very humid below, and the stairs have become even more slippery than the ones above." ”

"Understood." "Keep a three- or four-step distance between each person. ”

She Caixiang heard the sound, stopped, and waited for the torture technique to go down a few more steps before she continued to go down, but as soon as the three of them walked down less than three or four meters away, Chen Taidong heard a loud "boom" in the wall, and he immediately shouted: "Not good!" ”

Chen Taidong subconsciously grabbed the handle next to him: "Grab the handle next to you!" Hurry up! ”

Chen Taidong grabbed the handle, and the torture technique also turned around and ran back, grabbing the handle on the wall behind him, but because each handle was directly separated by a distance of at least three meters, after the torture technique grabbed the handle, She Caixiang had to run back to catch the one behind her.

At the moment when She Caixiang's hand was about to grab the handle, the stairs under her feet suddenly changed, from a staircase to a smooth ramp, and She Caixiang's feet slipped and slid directly down.

When She Caixiang slid to the torture technique, she hugged his waist, and she was supported there in shock, and said for a long time: "It's so dangerous, I almost slipped down." ”

Chen Taidong stared at the big hole that appeared at the staircase in front of him: "If you slide down, you will fall into the hole in front, the traps here are all life-threatening, where is this Liu Bao Valley sacred, how can there be such a house?" ”

Torture looked at the staircase carefully, thinking about something.

She Caixiang said: "What now? We can't go back, we can't go down, just hold on, sooner or later your physical strength will run out, this kind of mechanism is relatively common in the agency house. ”

"That's not right." Torture looked around, "Since it's a trap for killing, why do you want to design handles on the walls?" ”

Chen Taidong said: "Maybe it makes you die of despair, torture, you quickly ask Ma Fei to find a rope." ”

The torture technique did not call Ma Fei, but said, "Uncle Chen, something is wrong, do you remember the sharpened metal strips on the edge of each step of the stairs before?" ”

Chen Taidong suddenly realized something, grabbed the handrail and raised his legs high, and said at the same time: "She Caixiang, you quickly find a way to raise your body and don't touch the ramp below." ”

As soon as Chen Taidong finished speaking, there was a "boom" sound in the wall, the torture technique grabbed the handle with one hand, and the other hand jerked She Caixiang up, and the moment it was just lifted, the ramp below became a staircase again, which changed suddenly, and the feet of the torture technique sank directly because there was no support point of the ramp, and the calf hung on the edge of the staircase, and the pants were cut at the same time, and the skin of the calf was also cut.

She Caixiang stood firmly, squatted down and said, "Are you okay?" ”

The torture technique grabbed She Caixiang: "Uncle Chen, hurry up and run down, hurry up, this organ must have a time limit." ”

When the torture technique spoke, Chen Taidong had already begun to accelerate downward, but because he was afraid that his heels would touch the edge of the stairs, he couldn't use the fastest speed.

The three of them ran down for a while, finally reaching the small door at the bottom of the stairs before the next "boom" in the wall.

After running in, the three of them, panting and frightened, turned around and looked at the stairs that had turned into ramps again, as well as the dark pothole at the door, if they hadn't come down in time before, once they fell in, they would definitely die.

Chen Taidong shook his head and said: "Double trap, even if you catch that handle, after the ramp changes back, if you don't pay attention, you will be cut by the edge of the stairs and injured your ankle, if you don't hurry up to go back or go down, it will slow down because of the injury, so that when the mechanism changes again, maybe it will fall down or be injured again, so repeatedly, if you want to walk here safely, it is completely impossible." ”

Chen Taidong and Xingshu stood there looking at the pit at the door, while She Caixiang inside the door was standing inside at this time, looking at the surrounding environment in surprise, and at the same time stretched out his hand and dragged the torture technique: "Xingshu, come and see, what's going on?" ”

As soon as Chen Taidong turned around and looked at it, he noticed the environment he was inβ€”the kitchen!

"Hell yes!" Torturer looked around, "Isn't this the place where we came down?" ”

Chen Taidong looked at the double-door refrigerator that was moved at the door, and the secret door that was moved against the side of the wall, and then looked at all the furnishings in the kitchen, where is the kitchen?

She Caixiang looked around, cautiously walked out of the kitchen, and looked at the living room outside: "We...... How did you come back? What about Maffei and Sikong Yan? ”

Chen Taidong walked to the kitchen window: "No, we didn't go back. ”

Xingshu also walked over and looked at the window sealed by steel plates: "Yes, I didn't go back, we came down, but there was a villa built below here that is exactly the same as the one above, because the stairs are too far away from the ground." ”

She Caixiang looked around: "This project is too huge, I once saw a villa built by a coal boss in Shanxi, which is full of secret passages and traps, just for hiding money and antiques, I almost got lost in it at that time, but compared to this, it is a small thing." ”

Chen Taidong heard the song again at this time: "Let's go, go inside, and see if there is any difference between the room or furnishings below and above." ”

The three of them followed the staccato and strange singing towards the living room, and found a computer in the study next to the living room.

The computer is exactly the same as the one in the study above, it is a silver-gray all-in-one machine, except that this one should have been turned on after the power was turned on, and an audio file was playing on it all the time, and all the weird sounds I heard before came from the audio file.

Torture walked over to the computer and looked closely, revealing that the case was locked in a small cabinet underneath, with a deliberately open gap above the door to allow you to see the power light inside, but unable to put your hand inside.

Torturer pulled the door of the cabinet, found that the cabinet was locked, and looked up again, just in time to see a key under the keypad.

When Xingshu lifted the keypad, picked up the key, and was about to insert the key in to try to open the cabinet door, She Caixiang suddenly shouted: "Don't use that key!" ”

Xingshu was stunned for a moment, stopped looking at her, She Caixiang squatted down, pressed the cabinet lock, and found that the position of the lock cylinder mouth could move left and right.

"This key is fake, but it can be inserted, but once it is inserted, the lock cylinder will pop open, touching the mechanism next to it, maybe there are other things inside, normally it should be some dangerous chemicals." She Caixiang put the key aside, "This is the most common and simplest mechanism, if it is a file or something like that, the mechanism should be poured out of the ink oil substance, once all poured on the document, the file will be wrapped in ink oil, no matter what you think of, it is impossible to clean it up, but it is a computer inside, so the thing dumped by the mechanism is very likely to be strong acid or something, only in this way, can the hard disk be burned." ”

Chen Taidong knew almost nothing about computers, so he had to watch from the sidelines.

Xingshu nodded and said: "If you can't take away the hard disk, you can't take the data on the computer, you can't open the cabinet door, and you can't plug in the external equipment." ”

She Caixiang said: "This method is simple and crude, and it is the most effective, I have also used it. ”

Chen Taidong asked: "Can you pick the lock manually?" ”

"Absolutely not." She Caixiang thought about it after speaking, "What about the key that opened the electric switch upstairs earlier?" ”

The torture technique was touched, and She Caixiang said: "Use this, I think it should be." ”

Torture took a deep breath: "If it's wrong, then the clues are all broken." ”

She Caixiang got up and looked at Chen Taidong: "What do you think, old man?" ”

Chen Taidong nodded: "Take a gamble." ”

Torture inserted the key in, twisted it again, and heard a sound similar to the sliding of a chain, the cabinet door opened, and the key popped out.

She Caixiang immediately said: "The bet is right, this key is kept, it should still be useful." ”

Torture put away the key, She Caixiang squatted down, reached in and groped carefully, and then said: "I got it, there is a partition on it, and it should be the place where the organ places the highly corrosive liquid, but I don't understand, what will be stored in this computer?" ”

Xingshu took the mouse and found it in it.,After looking for a long time, I only found the audio file.,There's nothing in the hard disk.,Except for the system disk.,The other two disks are all empty.。

"I'll come." She Caixiang let the torture technique get out of the way, stepped forward by himself, checked the capacity of the partition disk, and then pointed to the E disk, "The E disk has 300 G, and it shows that there are 189 G available, that is to say, there should be 111 G in it, and the easiest way is to hide the file." ”

After She Caixiang set up the hidden files, a bunch of folders appeared, and she began to click on them one by one, and when she finally clicked on one of the files, a password box popped up.

She Caixiang looked at the screen and said, "It should be this, but I don't know the password." ”

At this time, Chen Taidong looked at the key in his hand and said, "I first saw a row of numbers on the key, could it be that?" ”

Chen Taidong took out a magnifying glass and handed it to the torture technique, who looked at the string of numbers and read it to She Caixiang.

After She Caixiang entered the password, the folder was opened, and it was full of video files.

"Click on it and take a look." Torture pointed to the first video file, She Caixiang moved the mouse up, and just when she was about to point it, her hand stopped, pondering something.

Puzzled, the torturer asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

She Caixiang shook her head: "Look at the names of these video files, they are all single numbers, there are a total of 12 groups, so coincidentally, the password number to open the video folder also happens to be a combination of these 12 groups of numbers, I don't believe you take it out." ”

Torture nodded at the name of the key and folder, "Yes, what does that mean?" ”

She Caixiang said: "Two meanings, either you have to open these folders in the order of passwords, or this is a trap." ”

The torturer pondered for a moment and said, "Did you click on all the folders earlier?" ”

"Nope." She Caixiang shook her head, "This is the 8th folder I found along the way." ”

Xingshu got up and stared at the computer screen: "Then keep looking down and see what's in the other folders." ”

She Caixiang continued to look down according to the instructions of the torture technique, and when she found the last folder, she opened it and found that there were a bunch of messy documents inside, most of which were not directly readable, and the names were basically a combination of numbers and letters.

Seeing this, She Caixiang took the key in the hand of the torturer, and began to sift through the documents inside according to the combination of numbers on the key, and sure enough, she found 12 groups of documents with exactly the same number names as on the key.

She Caixiang said: "I understand, the previous password folder is really a trap. ”

"Yes, and it's a psychological trap." Xingshu glanced at Chen Taidong, "Normal people will look for it and open a folder with a password, and they will also think of the number on the key, and after entering and opening it, they will find the video file inside, and they will think that they have found it, and then open it directly." ”

She Caixiang nodded: "That's right, and the fixed 111G used space,It's all in the E disk,Look at the 12 video files,You'll think you've found the right one,If you open it,The real file may be deleted or completely hidden。 ”

Chen Taidong said: "Then hurry up and click on the following one to see what is inside, this should be the clue that Liu Baogu left for Sikong Yan." ”

Under the urging of Chen Taidong, She Caixiang chose the opening method in order, opened it with the player, and then moved away from the screen slightly, watching the pitch-black picture gradually light up, at the same time, the computer's stereo began to come out, and then the sound in the video also came out from the living room, dining room, kitchen and other rooms, resounding throughout the underground villa, which made the torture and others very surprised.

"It looks like there's a megaphone or something in every room in this underground villa." Chen Taidong looked out the door, then turned his eyes to the screen, and saw that the video showed an old man standing at the door, shaking hands with the men and women who entered the house one by one.

The men and women were all dragging their luggage, and when they entered the house, they all looked excited and happy, and most of them looked around at this incomparably gorgeous villa.

And the old man in the picture, it is speculated by torture that it may be Liu Baogu, but why did he let so many people come to this villa? What the hell is he trying to do?
