Because Zhao Qiqi was carrying the small black rectangular box "artifact", it only took us ten minutes to search for the rest of the cameras.

In each of the twelve classrooms of the abandoned school on the third floor, a pinhole was installed.

When Du Deming pulled out the leftmost classroom on the first floor, which is the last camera, the corners of my mouth moved subconsciously.

There are twelve!

"W-What the hell is going on? Why are there so many cameras in an abandoned school? And it still looks new? Du Deming's face was a little ugly, staring at the camera in his hand and on the ground, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Zhao Qiqi seemed to be deliberately trying to exercise my ability to think independently, and she glanced at me.

"Gao Wei, what do you think?"

I touched my chin and thought for a moment before I said, "Well, judging from the pinhole installation technique, it doesn't look like a habitual offender, but it is more likely to come from a novice." ”

"Well, how can you see that?" Du Deming didn't quite understand the meaning of my words.

I pointed to the camera in his hand: "Have you ever seen an experienced offender install a camera in the same place in every room so easily that it can be spotted?" Also, since there are pinholes installed, why not install one in every corner, in case the camera just doesn't catch the face when we enter, won't his purpose be frustrated? ”

That's true, but who would do that? Is there any benefit to him doing this? Du Deming still has reservations.

Zhao Qiqi put her hands on her elbows, she glanced at me, and then showed a knowing smile.

"I seem to understand what he was trying to do."

"What is it?"

Du Deming and I asked with some excitement.

Zhao Qiqi shook his head.

"It shouldn't be long before you'll understand." As she spoke, she raised her hand and glanced at the time on her watch: "It's been fourteen minutes since they left here, let's go back first, and talk as we go!" ”

When we heard this, we both nodded.

After all, if they go back too late, a few of them will definitely be suspicious.

Put all the cameras in your backpack.

The three of us quickly walked out of the old school.

quickly came to the other side of the river, and just as Du Deming was about to return the same way, Zhao Qiqi stopped him.

"Wait!" She smiled, a sly look on her fair face, and pointed to a trail in the mountains on the right hand side of her previous arrival, and said, "Let's go back from here!" If I'm not mistaken, this should be the shortcut. ”

"That's good! Let's go! Du Deming only showed a slightly puzzled look, but then nodded quickly.

After all, Zhao Qiqi's speculation has never been wrong, and no one will doubt her inference.

Next, the three of us stepped onto the not-so-wide path.

Since we have all improved our physical fitness, we are much faster than normal, and now there is no one nearby, and we are not worried about being noticed by others.

Along the way, Du Deming opened the road at the front, Zhao Qiqi was in the middle, and I was at the end.

I stared at Zhao Qiqi's back, but there was a trace of doubt in my heart.

Just before, in the abandoned classroom, when Zhao Qiqi took out her mobile phone to take a camera, I noticed that she made a somewhat strange move.

That is, when Cui Haodi and the others said that they found that they had a piece of paper with robin nursery rhymes in their backpacks, she actually stopped shooting.

And when they stopped talking about it and moved on to other plans, she pressed the video button again.

In other words, the part of the middle few people who mentioned the topic of robin was deliberately hidden by her.

But...... Why is that?

thought that it was Zhao Qiqi who first read the nursery rhyme, and she also admitted that the book was owned by her.

Could it be that this matter has anything to do with her?

Thinking wildly, when this thought came to my heart, my face turned pale.

He opened his mouth with some hesitation, and opened his mouth several times to ask, but finally swallowed the words back.

After about three or four minutes, I finally couldn't help but stop Zhao Qiqi in front of me.

"That...... Qiqi, can I ask you a question? There was some sweat on my forehead, and I hesitated to speak.

Zhao Qiqi only paused slightly, and then continued to walk forward.

"I know what you're trying to ask, you're trying to ask why I withheld the mention of robins, right?" Yu Guang glanced at me, and Zhao Qiqi's tone was still calm.

"Uh, how do you know?" Guessed about the thoughts, I looked at her back a little embarrassed, and I didn't know what to say for a while.

Zhao Qiqi didn't seem to care, she glanced back at me, then turned around and continued to move forward.

"In short, you have to believe that I am doing this for your own good."

I froze where I was.

For my good?

Why is it for my good?

What does this have to do with me?

Just when I wanted to ask, Zhao Qiqi waved his hand.

"Don't ask me, you'll know all the answers by today at the latest. When that time comes, you'll be grateful to me. Zhao Qiqi said affirmatively.

After saying that, she kept silent.

Knowing her temper well, I didn't bother to ask again, like she said, I would know the answer sooner or later anyway.

After about ten minutes, we were already on the trail back to where we had started.

As Zhao Qiqi said, that path is indeed a shortcut.

Because after we came to the head teacher and sat down to rest for a few minutes, Cui Haodi and the others finally returned here.

After a while, the rest of the two classes also returned to the lawn that had been spread out at the beginning.

"Hehe, students, everyone is tired of playing! It's noon now, so let's take out the food and have lunch! Zhu Jie, the head teacher, counted the number of people and confirmed that everyone had arrived, so he said.

After being tired for so long, everyone was a little hungry, and before he could finish speaking, everyone had already opened their backpacks and took out the food and drinks that had been prepared long ago.

Of course, the three of us.

I nibbled on a sandwich while quietly observing Cui Haodi and Xuezhi Liu.

Turned his head and glanced at Zhao Qiqi.

What did she want to do next?

Du Deming leaned over to her a little breathlessly and asked in a voice that only the three of us could hear.

"Qiqi, what are we going to do next? Showdown? Why don't you take advantage of the crowd to tell everyone about it? Don't miss it! "It's clear he's in a hurry.

Zhao Qiqi took a bite of the chicken roll in his hand indifferently: "Don't worry, people can't run away under our noses." It's better to eat enough first. After all, for them, it should be their last meal outside. ”
