Chapter 48: Walmart's Secret Studio
Walmart deceived the family and has been busy working outside for more than a month.
What the hell is he doing out there?
And what has already been done?
……
After learning the news, Su Xian was not so surprised, he judged that Wal-Mart was the "person behind the scenes" through reasoning, and had a general understanding of his whereabouts in the second half of the month.
But Professor Buck didn't know anything about it.
Seeing that his face was so ugly, he probably realized that there was something strange about the seven-person (originally scheduled) party that night, and the successive deaths of Augusta and others had nothing to do with Wal-Mart!
At the thought of being cheated by someone, he must not be happy.
What's more, Walmart and he are still old friends who have known each other for decades.
Both of them are antiquarians, and they used to ask for school together when they were young, and they have been wandering in a circle since then, looking up and not looking down, and they can't be more familiar.
It wasn't until a few years ago that Wal-Mart married a wife and had children, the family was harmonious, and the focus of life shifted to the family, that their previous relationship gradually became estranged.
But Buck himself has always been lonely and always likes to catch up with old friends.
- Maybe that's the real reason why Wal-Mart didn't come to him for trouble.
The truth is confusing.
The atmosphere was dull, Su Xian held back for a long time, and said: "Professor, this matter is not simple. ”
Buck said, "I know of a secret work location hidden out of Wal-Mart, and if you're interested, you can come with me." ”
Of course, Su Xian couldn't ask for it.
He immediately said, "When?" ”
Buck picked up the menu and said decisively, "After dinner." ”
……
This person is really an atmosphere creature, obviously the same lunch, but today the food is tasteless.
Of course, that's how Professor Buck feels.
Su Xian felt that today's lunch was more delicious than yesterday's, perhaps because the vegetables were fresher~
……
Meal.
The two of them left the academy, stopped a passing empty carriage at the door, and sat on it together.
Professor Buck gave an address: "120 Gumen Road, opposite Mary's Cafe." ”
The coachman apparently knew him: "Okay, Professor, do you need to hurry?" ”
Buck shook his head: "No, just at the usual speed." ”
There can be no rush.
Something went wrong in a hurry.
Professor Barker looked sideways at the flow of people on the street, and always felt that there was an ominous atmosphere, and that everything he had been doing had been particularly difficult these days.
Just a few days ago at night, he exposed his secret to the eyes of some people, and found nothing, but was seriously injured!
If it weren't for the fact that the man in the raincoat wasn't interested in him, he would have sunk to the bottom of the River Styx.
So what he said to Su Xian was that he wanted to find something special to defend himself, but it was not fake.
In the past, he relied on his extraordinary strength to support himself, so he was extremely bold, but now he suddenly found that he was just a baby in the well, sitting in the well and watching the sky, so he was afraid of acting.
On the contrary, according to his previous style of acting, last night, after learning that Wal-Mart had been away from home for more than a month, he would definitely go straight to Wal-Mart's secret studio, instead of pulling Su Xian with him like now.
In the end, he is just a number of people, trying to feel at ease.
Because he's really scared!
But as everyone knows, the person next to him is the source of his fear.
……
The carriage stopped on the road, and finally reached Gumen Road after half an hour, opposite Mary's Cafe.
Su Xian hurriedly paid the fare, and helped Professor Buck, who actually didn't need to be supported at all, out of the car.
Professor Buck then led the way with a cane, and he followed half a step behind.
They entered the shop at 120 Gumen Road, then walked out the back door of the shop, and then burrowed into an old alley, and then turned a few more corners before coming to a building.
The building is somewhere between the old and the new, with six floors and belongs to the residential building.
Wal-Mart's secret studio, just upstairs.
This kind of setting made Su Xian quickly think of Professor Barker's rented house on Eighth Street of Gegett, these two people are worthy of being old friends who have known each other for a long time, and even the way to get a secret studio is the same.
"Let's go."
Professor Buck stood downstairs for a moment, then led the way upstairs.
When he reached the fifth floor, he stopped in the hallway, pointed to the door on the left-hand side and said, "This room is Wal-Mart's secret studio." Back then, it was still the position I picked for him. ”
No wonder......
Su Xian walked to the door and said, "Professor, then I knocked on the door?" ”
Professor Buck answered, "Knock." ”
Su Xian had already arrived at the door, but he didn't knock on the door, and an indescribable sense of panic suddenly penetrated into his scalp from the outside, making him freeze in place for a moment.
Professor Buck frowned, "Mark, what's wrong?" ”
Su Xian inhaled lightly, took a step back, and said in a low voice: "Professor, do you say there will be traps in this room?" ”
……
Professor Buck was silent for a long time and raised his cane: "Get out of the way, I'll come." ”
Su Xian quickly walked to the side of the stairs and quietly put on the nose ring of the Minotaur.
Professor Buck took a deep breath and slammed his cane into the door!
His crutches are powerful, but his strength is actually controlled within the reach of ordinary people.
The door was not broken open, but a loud bang was heard!
When the echo disappeared, Professor Buck said in a deep voice, "Wal-Mart, I'm coming to see you!" ”
The sound must have reached the house, but there was no sound inside.
Professor Buck was originally a very calm person, but at this time, he probably wanted to pretend to be a good image of his old friend's safety in front of Su Xian, so he seemed a little urgent.
"Knock knock!"
He poked it three more times, louder and louder.
But there was still no response from inside the door.
Professor Buck withdrew his crutches, stomped on the ground a few times, and looked up, "Looks like he's not in there." Mark, can you kick this door open? I remember you had a lot of strength? ”
Is this finally mentioned?
But it doesn't matter.
Su Xian was not polite at all, and kicked the door violently in the form of a sideways kick.
"Bang!"
There was another loud bang, and the door lock was kicked straight around.
The whole door squeaked and opened inward.
Su Xian quickly retracted his foot, and in an instant, three sharp arrows burst out from inside the door!
These three sharp arrows are divided into upper, middle and lower routes, leaving no chance of survival at all.
Su Xian was prescient and avoided it perfectly.
Professor Buck was not so comfortable, he could not reveal his extraordinary powers, and could only rely on his physical body to dodge, and the thrill was not mentioned.
An arrow almost passed through his waist and scratched his suit.
But that's not all.
The second wave of arrows burst out right after!
At this moment, Professor Buck directly shot his head and squatted down, shrinking into the corner, completely avoiding all the arrows.
After two rounds of arrows, there are no more traps.
Su Xian felt that the warning in his heart had disappeared, so he poked inside, only to see an arrow platform connected to the door in the center of the living room, and there were no arrows left on it.
It seems like a makeshift trap.
