Chapter Twenty-Six: Shadows
Now, it's getting closer and closer to the truth. But there are still a few questions, among which what I want to know the most is why Boss Ye pretends not to know our code words?
So I asked again: "Boss Ye, the sheep are out of the circle with the sheep, you should know the meaning." "After saying that, I kept staring at Boss Ye.
Boss Na Ye was actually happy after hearing this: "You are still staring at this, I really convinced you." Okay, come here, I'll tell you what I mean......"
I leaned over, and Boss Ye whispered in my ear: "The sheep in the circle means that the thing is in hand, or the target has been locked. The sheep out of the pen means that the cooked duck flies. β
After listening to his words, I was shocked in my heart, what Boss Ye said was word for word. But why didn't he say it just now? I tried to ask him, but he shook his head at me.
Leaning slightly, Boss Ye stepped back and laughed, "What's the matter?" There's no problem with my boss Ye, right?" I nodded awkwardly......
Boss Ye's words changed, and he said in a low voice: "Then what is next?"
Venster, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Boss Ye, I have a question I want to ask. You...... You didn't come with that delegation, did you?"
Boss Ye was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Yes, I have another purpose. Now that fake Ah Cheng is not here, I will tell you what I am here for. β
Boss Ye paused when he said this, and looked at me: "I also came because of him." Someone sent me a text message saying that there was an inner ghost following you. Moreover, this person also said that Wang Hao is in danger now. It just so happened that the expedition was coming, so I came in......"
After Boss Ye finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and flipped through it, found the text message, and showed it to us. After I looked at it, I wanted to look for clues based on the sender, but the sender was a string of garbled characters, the same as the one I received before.
Now, my suspicions about him are completely gone. He's the boss I can trust!
"I'm sorry, I doubted you before......" I stretched out my hand to Boss Ye with some embarrassment, "I really shouldn't be suspicious." Boss Ye smiled, and also stretched out his hand to shake me: "How is my performance?" Without confirming who the inner ghost is, he can only pretend to be indifferent and weird first. β
We all laughed. Then he was a little sad: If that Ah Cheng is fake, then where did the real Ah Cheng go? I voiced my doubts, but was met with silence.
After a long time, a sigh broke the silence: "I said, let's go in and have a look, we can't spend it here." Also, we have to find an exit. β
It was Yuan An who spoke, and he stood up at the same time, walked to the entrance of the cave and looked out, and then retracted: "The height is okay here, let's not go around, directly from here." I'll go down first, and you'll follow. β
Yuan An jumped lightly and disappeared into the hole. The three of us were the other three of us, looking at each other. Then they walked to the entrance of the cave and climbed down one by one......
Halfway down the line, Yuan An had already reached the low end and was quipped at us below: "You jump down, I'll catch you with a big move!" β
Yuan'an's appearance made the atmosphere suddenly a lot easier, and we also climbed to the bottom in twos and threes.
Looking at the ruins of the city of Milos in front of him, the grandeur and magnificence became even more obvious. The marble gate a few steps away was slightly open. It's like they're hiding the secrets of the city......
"Let's go." I whispered, leading the way to the gates. Several others followed me. It's just that this time we walked more carefully.
Five minutes later, we arrived at the city gates. I hesitated to stand in the gap in the gate, and did not go straight in. Venster in the back was a little curious: "What's wrong?" Don't you go in? β
I shook my head: "I don't know what's going on inside now, and going in blankly will only put you in danger." Then, I turned around and asked Yuan An: "The weapon can be taken out." β
Yuan An nodded, opened his bag, took out two small pistols, picked one up himself, and handed the other to us: "Whoever wants it, there are only two left." I will use one for myself, and you will take the other. β
Venster pulled out his speargun: "Although it is not powerful, it can still be used." β
I originally wanted to take it, but Boss Ye picked it up directly: "Give it to me, I use it more smoothly." "I had no choice but to give up, but Boss Ye found out about my predicament and generously wanted to give it to me, but I politely refused.
Fortunately, Venster had a small pair of thorny fingers and gave them to me to wear. After the weapons were distributed, we ate some energy bars to replenish some energy. After that, we stood in front of the door and took a deep breath and slowly pushed the door open together.
The gates were wide open, and dust was flying. The traces of countless years rush straight to our faΓ§ade and make us want to sneeze. After the dust cleared, we cautiously walked inside.
The city of Milos is a typical ancient Athenian city-state, and its architectural structure and layout can be compared to the Acropolis. The buildings in the city are all made of marble, but they have been severely weathered due to age.
As I walked, Boss Ye suddenly patted me: "Isn't this the same scene as in Li Jing's photo?" I'm a little worried about her. and Zhang Qiuyun, I didn't tell you before. Actually, she came down earlier than us in the first place! β
"What? She came down before you? Come down to this sea early?" I was shocked, "Didn't you guys act together?" β
Boss Ye shook his head vigorously: "Actually, after we found out that she was gone, we immediately went down to look for her, which can be regarded as the front and rear feet." I just don't know how long she came down before us......"
I looked at Boss Ye blankly: "I remember the night I rescued you, at ten o'clock, she sent me a message, using the code words of the two of us: The sheep is out of the pen." Is this what you told him? β
Boss Ye patted his head after hearing this: "How did I forget this?" She said there were strangers in our ranks! She locked up the stranger, but there was no ample evidence. That's why I sent you that message before! β
At this point, a few of us were completely shocked. It turns out that this expedition also has a problem! However, we were shocked and shocked, and after calming down a little, we also began to analyze.
Venster first asked, "Mixed in with strangers?" Is this still going to be locked? Do you have a lot of people on your team? Are there any strangers who don't know this?"
After hearing this, Boss Ye rolled his eyes at Venster: "Ah Hao and Ah Cheng have been brothers for so many years, haven't you still been able to tell that Ah Cheng is a ghost...... Zhang Qiuyun meant that the stranger came in......"
At the mention of Ah Cheng, my heart was heavy again. I never thought that Ah Cheng was replaced, so where is the real Ah Cheng? But now is not the time to think about it.
Yuan An on the side frowned: "I said, how many of you came this time?" Boss Ye recalled for a moment and said, "I, as well as my classmate Chen Yaowen. plus Uncle Shi and Dean Cao, the rest are Ah Hao's classmates. β
But Boss Ye said again: "Li Jing originally wanted to join, but later it seems that Uncle Shi disagreed......"
"Li Jing...... Li Jing ...... "I read the words, and suddenly recalled a detail: Zhang Qiuyun once sent me a message to tell me to be careful of Li Jing. Could it be that Li Jing is a fake?
I didn't talk about it, but continued to ask, "How did Li Jing come here?"
After scratching his ears and cheeks, Boss Ye shook his head: "I don't know, since then, Li Jing has no follow-up." It wasn't until you said that Li Jing came over that I heard about her again. β
"It's getting messy, it's getting messy." Venster sighed, "I said things are complicated among you. Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. Why don't you look for that person here? Zhang Qiuyun is here?"
Before Venster finished speaking, Yuan An agreed: "This idea is okay, don't we have a diving suit, don't we have a miniature radio in it, which can be used to communicate." β
Boss Ye didn't have much of an opinion, so he acquiesced. But I'm a little entangled: what if it is scattered, what if something goes wrong?
I voiced my concerns, and the other three raised their weapons, saying nothing was a big deal. I looked at my finger tiger and cursed in my heart, but because of my stubbornness, I agreed......
So, the four of us agreed to meet in front of the tall building in the center of the city. After that, each person picked a road in one direction and separated......
