Chapter 54: Night Detective Secret Room Stranger
She turned her head to meet his eyes like an abyss that could never be seen through, and her heart was full of questions.
Lan Lei avoided her gaze that was full of coldness and mixed with a hint of fiery and doubt, that kind of look ...... He sighed deeply and said, "In two days, Lan Yanfeng will recruit a secretary, and as for the person in charge of the recruitment, I have already arranged it!" All you have to do is take this brief and apply! After speaking, he took out a resume from his wide windbreaker and handed it to Chen Zixu.
She took it and looked through it, and changed her real age from 26 to 22 years old, and changed her birthplace to Seattle, USA, but why is the name on it still Chen Zixu? She looked at Lan Lei puzzled.
He saw the doubt in her eyes, and before she could ask why her name hadn't changed, he explained, "I know you want to ask me why?" Everything has changed on the resume! Only your name hasn't changed? Because that's the only way to get someone's attention, and you'll have a chance to get into the depths of the company. ”
Chen Zixu closed her eyes tightly, and opened her eyes in the cemetery, her eyes were full of hatred, and she opened her lips slightly: "Lan Hao, chairman of Shenzhou Group? ”
"That's right! Although you have changed a lot in this decade, it is ...... Your appearance will still attract the attention of my second uncle, and with your name, he must pay special attention to you and investigate your background. ”
"Aren't you afraid that he'll recognize me?" She asked, confused.
"There is only one result of his investigation, that is, you just have the same name as the eldest daughter who was killed by him ten years ago, and you look a little similar! As for your parents, you immigrated to Seattle 25 years ago, your mother was a college teacher abroad, your father was a chef, and you were sent back home shortly after you were born, and your grandmother raised you. He said confidently.
"Are you sure he won't look at me? Will he leave someone in the company who looks like the person he killed? Again, she asked.
Lan Lei stared at Chen Zixu's somewhat pale little face, stretched out his hands to hold her face, and his smooth and delicate cheeks were a little cold.
After a moment, he replied to her: "He will keep yours!" Because he will be guilty and remorseful, and there is no way to atone for his sins, and he will treat you as the one who can make him make amends for his sins. ”
Her palms were so warm, she closed her eyes, hid the sadness in her eyes, and gently leaned into his strong and warm embrace, enjoying the moment of warmth given to her by the man next to her.
He picked her up and walked to the bedroom.
"Come here, kid...... Come here, child......" A hoarse voice repeated in her ear.
Chen Zixu slowly opened her eyes, but she couldn't see anything, it was pitch black, she couldn't see her fingers, she felt an inexplicable sense of panic and depression, and gradually a faint light appeared in front of her, and she moved towards the light step by step.
Suddenly, she bumped into a hard object that blocked her movement, and she stretched out her trembling hands and cautiously touched the hard object......
As soon as the hand touched it, it retracted, cold and piercing.
Moment......
She forcibly suppressed the panic in her heart, and slowly reached out again to touch it, it was a thumb-thick and cold stick-like object, like a few iron railings, she continued to grope forward, there was a big gap in her left hand, the iron railing was not very dense, if you wanted to go to the place where there was light in front of her, you had to pass through the iron railing in front of her, she poked her head and easily drilled through this iron railing.
She continued to walk towards the faint light......
"Bang!" Behind him came the sound of an iron door slamming shut.
She was shocked, and stumbled and ran desperately towards the light ahead! I don't know how long I ran? It feels like this road is so long......
At last I ran to the place where the light was shining, and there was a small oil lamp standing in the corner, but this was also the end of the road.
She looked around, but she couldn't see anything because of the limited light emitted by the small oil lamp, except for the dim, damp walls, where the cold air faintly shone through the frost.
She felt more and more familiar here, so familiar......
Suddenly, the faint little oil lamp released a strong bright light, illuminating the place.
She turned around, and only then did she see that she was in an iron cage, and the only exit from the low iron door was surrounded by a thick iron chain, locked.
She grabbed the cold iron railing and shook it desperately, crying, "Why am I here? Let me out! Let me out! ”
"Stop shouting! It's useless! Woo woo ......" a hoarse voice sounded behind her.
She was shocked, it was this voice that led her into the darkness just now, she didn't dare to look back, she felt her limbs weak, trembling all over, she used her greatest strength to shout: "Lan Lei save me!" ”
"Here the child comes! Here the children are! Woooooooo The crying hoarse voice sounded again, getting closer and closer to her.
She seemed to feel the sound of his breathing after his wail in her ears, and she slowly turned her head......
"Ah!!h A distorted face looked at her fiercely.
With an exclamation, she woke up from her dream, covered in cold sweat, she turned her head to look at Lan Lei lying beside her, breathing evenly
It's like I'm sleeping deeply, but I can't sleep anyway! She got up and got dressed, quietly picked up Lan Lei's clothes, and rummaged for the key to the secret room.
Finally, after a few minutes of rummaging, she found the rusty secret room key in the pocket of the black trench coat, and she carefully held the key in the palm of her hand, put on her fur coat and quietly went downstairs.
It was dark outside, she took out her mobile phone and glanced at the time, it was more than half past three, there were few pedestrians on the road during this time period, she went out of the community and walked on the road for a long time before intercepting a taxi.
In the secret room
He heard footsteps in the doorway, and then the heavy door of the chamber was pushed open, and a beautiful girl entered, curled up in the corner of the wall and did not move, but peered out of the iron cage through the gap in his unkempt hair.
Chen Zixu approached the cage and looked at the strange man curled up in the corner, he couldn't tell what it was like, and he always felt that the eyes he looked at him were so familiar.
Curled up in the corner, he saw that the girl was not following up behind him, so he stood up hunched back, step by step, moving with difficulty and heavy steps, and walked towards the girl, with his mouth "Woo woo wow wow!" "Make a hoarse voice.
"What do you want to say to me, right? You speak slowly, don't rush. She held the cold iron railing in her hand, and felt the coldness in her palm, as cold as in a dream.
