The explosion was far away, but it struck me as strange. This is a scenic spot, how can an explosion like a mountain open for no reason?

At this moment, the doorbell of the room rang. I opened the door, it turned out to be Tang Zhenguo, he said: "Today's meal is so delicious, I eat a little too much, accompany me to take a walk and eliminate food." ”

I said, "Okay, what about Little Sugar?" ”

Tang Zhenguo said: "I went with her grandparents to see Fan Runzheng. ”

I nodded and said, "Let's go!" ”

Taoyuan Villa is very large, and the fountain garden in front of the villa is enough for us to walk, but I never like to do aimless things, anyway, it's a walk, why not find a destination?

So I said to Tang Zhenguo: "Did you hear the explosion just now? ”

Tang Zhenguo looked at me and said, "You said that loud noise just now? I heard it, I guess it's somewhere to open the mountain, and there is the sound of rocks rolling down behind. ”

I looked at Tang Zhenguo in surprise and said, "The sound of falling rocks? Are you sure you hear the sound of rocks falling? ”

Tang Zhenguo said confidently: "I was standing by the window smoking when the explosion sounded, and when I practiced throwing knives, I had to practice not only my eyesight, but also my ears. The sound of the stone rolling down can't be wrong. ”

I asked, "Do you hear the rocks rolling down in what direction?" ”

Tang Zhenguo raised his head and pointed, "That's over there." ”

I looked in the direction he was pointing, and a sense of foreboding appeared in my heart. Because in my memory, the winding mountain road leading to Taoyuan Villa is in the direction pointed by Tang Zhenguo.

"Let's go in the direction where the explosion is coming from and see why it's happening. Why is there a sound of rocks rolling? As I spoke, I changed my route and was heading for the road to the village. And that explosion is where I want to go.

The two reasons I raised sparked Tang Zhenguo's curiosity, and he quickly followed my pace. It's just that our goal now is no longer the previous walk and food, but to find out the location of the explosion.

We almost trotted over this way, because we were getting farther away from Taoyuan Villa, and it was getting late, and it was impossible for the mountain road to have street lights, so we all turned on our mobile phone flashlights.

After we walked about a kilometer along the winding road, the sight in front of us stunned both Tang Zhenguo and me.

Several boulders lay on this narrow road, scattered, large and small stones paved the road, and behind those boulders, there was a section of the road that had completely collapsed, not to mention that cars could not pass, and even people could not cross it.

At this time, there was also the sound of sand and gravel sliding on the rock wall, which was extremely terrifying and strange in this dark night.

"I'll go! It's a landslide! Tang Zhenguo said in surprise.

"It's not a landslide, it's man-made, these rocks were shaken down when they exploded just now." I said with a frown.

Tang Zhenguo hurriedly said: "Yes, these stones must have been blown up." Who is so bored at night and runs here to blow up the mountain? ”

I was still frowning tightly, because I knew that the explosion was not on the rock wall above the road, but on the road itself. Someone deliberately blew up this winding mountain road and collapsed, and the stones on the road were only affected by the force of the explosion and slid down from the rock wall of the road.

The sense of foreboding in my heart grew stronger. There are only two purposes for the artificial bombing of roads in this place, so that people in Taoyuan Villa cannot leave, and people from outside cannot enter.

So what is the purpose of the people who blow up the roads? Although I am not sure of the specific purpose of this man, I can be sure that he is extremely dangerous. Can a person with such a strong * be safe?

I picked up a piece of gravel on the ground, handed it to Tang Zhenguo and said, "Take it." ”

Tang Zhenguo looked at me by the light of the flashlight and said, "Something is going to happen?" ”

I nodded and said, "I hope not." ”

After saying that, we strode towards Taoyuan Villa. At this moment, there were several loud noises behind me, and I turned my head to see that several huge black shadows had slid down from the rock wall and landed on the road, making a rumbling sound, like the death knell of the devil, and spread to the distance of the mountain.

We returned to Taoyuan Villa, and the whole villa was still brightly lit. It's just that this overly bright mountain villa seems very lonely and quiet in this mountain, and I feel that the darkness around me can swallow up these lights at any time.

I looked at the time, and it was 8:49 p.m.

Tang Zhenguo called his father-in-law and asked where they were. His father-in-law said on the phone that they were all in the theater waiting to see a magic show.

The private theater of Taoyuan Villa, except for being a little smaller, is no worse than a professional theater. The layered red sofas, dazzling lighting and excellent acoustics all show that this theater is not ordinary.

When we entered the theater under the guidance of the waiter, passing through two security guards, the magician had already walked to the center of the theater stage. Tang Zhenguo and I tiptoed through the passage of the stands, and it was easy to find Pan Lao, because there were thirteen people in the entire theater. And sitting next to Pan Lao was Fan Runzheng, and the two were talking to each other, looking very happy.

The magic has already begun, and the theater is dark except for the bright lights on the stage. The people watching the magic were sitting very far in front of me, and I couldn't see that there was no one. I don't know what kind of mentality they have to watch this magic show. Because I felt in my heart that the people who instructed the blow-up of the mountain roads were among them.

But I know that the people who can come here are people with heads and faces and powerful people. Of course, you can't be reckless and shout, someone here has blown up the mountain road, is it trying to harm you? And it will also startle the snake, maybe he will do even more crazy things. So what I'm going to do now is to adapt to change.

Tang Zhenguoan and I sat quietly watching the magic show. Of course, I don't have much of an eye to watch magic, because all magic tricks are tricks, and I'm far more interested in revealing tricks than in looking at them. What I need to do now is to be vigilant at all times and respond as quickly as possible if something unexpected happens.

I had a lot on my mind, such as whether someone would rush out of the darkness and shoot at the group with a machine gun. Or a sudden fire breaks out in the theater, and all escape routes are blocked. Or something like a chandelier falling on the roof of a theater and killing someone in one fell swoop.

Anyway, all kinds of bizarre thoughts came to mind, and I don't know if I was worried about this strange accident or if I longed for it.

Just as I was caught up in these bizarre thoughts of mine, I suddenly heard Tang Zhenguo shout: "Be careful, gun!" After that, I felt a gust of strong wind on the surface, which was the airflow generated when Tang Zhenguo used his flying knife technique with all his might.

"Smack!" With a bang, I saw that the props in the hands of the magician on the stage were knocked away, and the magician was so frightened that he retreated several steps.

Several audience members were also frightened and stood up, accompanied by a few exclamations of "oh my god", and several people looked back at Tang Zhenguo. At this time, the headlights of the theater were also lit, and I could see that those people looked at Tang Zhenguo with surprise and anger.

I hurriedly rushed to the stage and picked up the prop that had been knocked flying. It was indeed a gun, but it was not a real gun, but a prop gun that spewed flames and confetti. There was a stone on the ground not far away, and that stone was the stone I handed to Tang Zhenguo.

It seems that everything is just a misunderstanding.

When I turned around, the security guards who heard the news had already surrounded Tang Zhenguo.

Pan Lao also stood up at this time, and said to Fan Runzheng in a loud voice: "This is my son-in-law, let me ask him, what happened?" ”

Fan Runzheng looked at Tang Zhenguo and said, "Get out of the way." ”

Pan Lao hurriedly walked to Tang Zhenguo's side and asked anxiously, "Zhenguo, what are you doing?" ”

Tang Zhenguo said solemnly: "I saw the magician take out a pistol and face the audience, I was worried about danger, so I shot his gun out." ”

Pan Lao stomped his feet and said: "Zhenguo, that magician is performing a trick, that pistol must be a prop, how can he take out a gun and kill people?" ”

Tang Zhenguo looked at his father-in-law suspiciously, and hurriedly looked at me on the stage and said loudly: "Ouyang, have you checked it?" What is the gun? ”

I didn't answer him directly, I picked up the gun and pointed it at Tang Zhenguo, and with a 'snap', a piece of colorful confetti spewed out, which made the people present laugh. Fortunately, Tang Zhenguo's complexion is dark, otherwise his face at this time must be redder than the tomatoes.

At this point, the lights were very bright, and I was standing on the stage again, and I could see the expressions and mannerisms of everyone in the audience.

Just when I fired this colored paper bullet, there were three people under the stage who did not laugh, Tang Zhenguo, Pan Tianping, and Fan Runzheng.

I can understand that Tang Zhenguo and Pan Tianping didn't laugh, but what about Fan Runzheng? Is he unsmiling in his life? Or is he resenting Tang Zhenguo and damaging the atmosphere of his hospitality to distinguished guests? Or is there something deeper about it?

While everyone was laughing, and while everyone was gathered, I said loudly, "Please be quiet, I have something to explain to you." ”

But as soon as I finished speaking, a majestic voice came: "Friend, please leave the stage, and I will invite my guests to continue to enjoy the magic show." ”

It was Fan Runzheng who spoke, and he looked at me with an expression that was not angry and arrogant. The question arose in my mind: was this his sincere words or was there some purpose to prevent me from announcing the collapse of the road to everyone?

I said calmly: "I am the adviser of the district criminal investigation team, and what I am going to say below may be related to the safety of your life. ”

When I said this, there was silence in the audience, and everyone looked at me with panicked and surprised eyes.
