Chapter 352: Dagger
This mask is so familiar to me, it is the same mask that the person who followed us was wearing during the day today! And this person, nine times out of ten, is the real culprit behind this manipulation*!
After the masked man smiled weirdly at us, he turned around and ran upstairs before we could react, and Lin Yingxue and I couldn't care about the two police officers at this time, and chased upstairs at the same time! If this person is caught, then we don't have to waste any more time investigating the cause of Director Zhao's death and we can be freed from the predicament in front of us!
When we rushed to the fourth floor, we found that the masked man who had run upstairs before was completely gone, not even a sound.
Lin Yingxue wanted to continue chasing upstairs, but I immediately stopped her and said, "Don't panic, listen to the voice first." ”
I don't know why, the building is surprisingly quiet at this moment, whether it is Bai Longfei and security guard Xiao Wei who left first, or the office director who left for the second time, and even the two police officers who were temporarily separated from us have completely disappeared, as if they have already left this newspaper building, and in the whole building, only me and Lin Yingxue are left.
We listened quietly for more than ten seconds, and after making sure that there was no sound around, I estimated that I said loudly: "It seems that the person is hiding in this fourth floor, Xiaoxue, you must catch him!" ”
Lin Yingxue glanced at me with some puzzlement, I glanced at her, she didn't ask more, took the dagger in her hand, motioned me to stand here and don't move, and then walked alone towards the dark corridor on the side.
At this time, standing in the position of a man, I will definitely not let Lin Yingxue take risks alone, but compared to Lin Yingxue, my five scum and Lin Yingxue are simply a heaven and an underground, and I can only make trouble with the past, and I can't play any role.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a little imperceptible sound from the other end of the corridor, as if someone was moving on tiptoe in the dark corridor!
Hearing this voice, I instantly understood that Lin Yingxue was probably chasing in the wrong direction, and wanted to call Lin Yingxue over, but I was afraid of startling the snake, so after thinking about it, I still decided to go over and have a look by myself.
At that time, I didn't know where I had the audacity to make such a hasty decision, and when I looked around, I found that there was nothing on the ground that could be used as a weapon, so I had to turn off the flashlight in my hand for the time being, and then hold it in my hand, ready to use it as a weapon, and whenever I saw the person wearing the mask, I slammed it on his head while he was not looking.
Because of staying in this dark environment for a long time, my eyes have adapted to the environment in front of me at this time, even if there is no flashlight light, I can roughly see the outline of the surroundings, as I walk into the corridor little by little, I can see more and more things clearly, I find that there is no one in this corridor, all the rooms are closed, the sound I heard just now, it should be from a certain room.
Because I wasn't sure if I could beat the other person, I moved with the same footsteps, and I couldn't even hear the footsteps, and I believe the masked person couldn't hear it either.
After walking about ten meters or so, I suddenly remembered a question, that is, when I saw the masked man before, he was wearing pure black!
When I was in the White Building, I still remember the visual magic of Qi Qi and Li Sha using black clothes to create an instant disappearance, and although I could see the outline of the surroundings clearly, if a person in black clothes walked past me, I thought that unless I heard a sound or felt it, I would not be able to detect him with my eyes alone!
Thinking of this, I glanced in the direction of the stairs behind me, and immediately saw that at this time, in the direction of the stairs, there were some places where the light of the building next door was shining, and the man in black wearing a mask was standing there, staring at me motionless!
I didn't expect him to come behind me unnoticed, and I didn't even notice it!
When I found the figure of the other party, I immediately shouted Lin Yingxue's name, and at the same time got up and rushed towards the masked man in black, but as soon as I ran a few steps, I immediately stopped in an instant, and the brakes were too strong and I almost fell to the ground.
Because when I was running and walking, I felt as if I was touching something under my feet, and it felt like a line was blocking my way, and at the same time as touching this line, a large number of clips from TV dramas and movies flashed in my mind.
I didn't dare to move anymore when I stopped, I couldn't see what was going on around me, what was connected to the line under my feet, and if I just withdrew my legs, would there be any danger?
Under the stimulation one after another, my clothes were already soaked with a lot of sweat, and if anyone stood in front of me and stabbed me, I am afraid that I would not have any ability to resist.
Just when I felt helpless, a beam of light suddenly shone in front of me, stabbing me a little unable to open my eyes, and when I got used to the light and looked ahead, I found that Lin Yingxue was rushing towards me with a flashlight at this time, and the man in black who was still standing at the top of the stairs completely disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, I didn't have time to care about the man in black, so I hurriedly said to Lin Yingxue: "Don't get too close, help me see what's going on on my side." ”
Lin Yingxue, who was far away, noticed my abnormality, stopped about three meters away from me, and kept shaking around me with a flashlight, so that I couldn't see what was going on with this wire at all.
Lin Yingxue went back and forth for more than twenty seconds, and then said to me with a solemn face: "Don't worry, do as I say, don't move." ”
Seeing her serious expression, I became even more nervous, swallowed my saliva, and nodded slightly.
"Don't strain your right leg, try to squat down first."
At this time, not to mention the right leg leaning on the line, I didn't even dare to move my left leg, which had nothing to do, and tried to lower my body motionlessly, and finally slowly squatted down.
After I squatted down, Lin Yingxue continued: "Now you can just break the line with your hands, don't stand up, just keep the current height." ”
I was stunned when I heard this! Lin Yingxue: What does this mean? Isn't this wire connected to *? Although I had thousands of doubts in my heart, I still didn't have the slightest doubt about Lin Yingxue's words, paused slightly, took a few deep breaths, grabbed the thin thread under my feet with my hand, and tore the thread off the spot with a gritted tooth!
I subconsciously closed my eyes the moment the thread was torn off, but at the same time, I heard something above my head, brushing my hair and grazing over my head, and finally slamming into the wall with a crisp sound, and then the thing fell to the ground.
I slowly opened my eyes, Lin Yingxue had already walked in front of me at this time, helped me up from the ground and said, "Why did you come here alone?" Didn't know that it was dangerous? ”
Seeing her anxious look, my heart warmed slightly, and I knew that she was worried about my safety, making me feel like I had made a mistake when I was a child, and I was a little at a loss.
Lin Yingxue shook her head helplessly, and after helping me up, she took a closer look at my body to make sure that I was not injured, and then squatted down to find the thing that had fallen on the ground just now.
She looked for something on the ground, and I looked up to see what the thread I had stepped on just now was, and when I looked up, I found that there was a strong rubber band fixed to the wall above my head and parallel to my head, and I immediately looked at the rubber band carefully with a flashlight, and then I found that at the end of the rubber band, there was a black thin thread similar to sewing clothes, which was the same material as the thin thread under my feet.
And Lin Yingxue also found the thing that fell on the ground, picked it up and showed it to me, it was a dagger, the dagger was not very long, but it was very sharp, it seemed that this should be a trap laid by the person wearing the mask.
Because the rubber band is parallel to my head, if I unknowingly step on this line under my feet, the rubber band will drive the dagger towards my head, and the sharp dagger and rubber band are strong enough for this dagger to pierce my head!
Thinking of this, I felt a wave of fear in my heart, it was obvious that when I came in, I was lucky not to step on this line, and when I left, I reacted and stopped in time, waiting for Lin Yingxue to rescue, if I broke this line without knowing it, I really don't know what will happen.
"What the hell just happened? Why did you come here alone? Did you find the man in the mask? ”
I wiped the cold sweat on my forehead, lit a cigarette to calm down, and briefly told Lin Yingxue what I had just done.
Lin Yingxue sighed after hearing this: "It seems that the masked man has fled, and if you want to catch him again, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult." ”
When Lin Yingxue spoke, I carefully looked at the dagger in my hand, and suddenly felt that this dagger seemed a little familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, I finally understood why this dagger was a little familiar.
Because this dagger is the same dagger that the masked man who followed us today put inside the mask! But I obviously handed over this dagger to Bai Longfei, why did it appear here?
