The floor was much harder than the four of them could have imagined, and there were rebars beneath the floor, which were much denser than the walls of the upper floors.

After smashing the surface and cutting the first layer of steel bars, Fang Xunyi squatted down and looked at it: "Strange, these steel bars don't look like they were decades ago. ”

Fang Xunyi, who used to work as a construction worker, knows very well that in the era of the construction of the Diming Tower, there would not have been such a quality of steel bar, which was obviously the product of the past ten years.

Because he couldn't reveal his identity, Fang Xunyi had to explain that he knew a little about architecture, and explained to everyone about the relevant knowledge of building steel bars.

"The product of the last decade?" Bao Junhao looked at the ground and asked, "You mean that the ground has been reinforced?" ”

Wei Chiran immediately understood what Fang Xunyi wanted to express, it was not that the ground had been reinforced, in order to confirm that Fang Xunyi and his speculation were correct, he ordered everyone to smash all the cement on the surface of the floor of the room.

Another few hours of this busy work have passed.

When all the cement on the surface was smashed open, Fang Xunyi looked at the cement blocks everywhere and said, "Sure enough, it's the same as I guessed." ”

Suo Ning asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Wei Chiran pointed to the cement block and explained: "The color of the cement block in the center of the room within a meter diameter is completely different from the surrounding one, and the color and appearance of the steel bar are also different. ”

Bao Junhao picked up a cement block: "Do you mean that someone smashed a one-meter-diameter pit here in the past, and then it was resealed, and all this happened in the past ten years?" ”

Fang Xunyi nodded and said, "Yes, that's what it means." ”

With such a hard ground and the steel bars in it, it would take at least a day to make a hole with a diameter of one meter.

Who the hell smashed the ground? And who repaired the ground?

The person who smashed the ground must be the same as Wei Chiran and the others, trying to find out the truth by digging the ground, and the person who filled this hole was nothing more than trying to cover it up.

Wei Chiran thought of this and asked Fang Xunyi: "Can you be sure that the steel bar is the product of the past ten years?" ”

Fang Xunyi couldn't explain to Wei Chiran in detail, but said, "I'm sure." ”

That's weird. Presumably, there have been people who have entered this strange building for at least a decade, and this person or several people have tried to smash open the ground to find secrets.

Then the question arises again, where has this one or several people gone? Is it missing in this building? Or was it killed?

"Killed?" Suo Ning asked curiously, "Why do you think that the person who smashed the floor slab was killed?" ”

Wei Chiran said: "Because this hole has been resealed, that is to say, some people do not want the truth to be revealed, and it can also prove that we are close to the truth by smashing the floor now." ”

So who doesn't want the truth to be revealed? Is it from the Xiang family?

According to today's clues, it seems that this person is Xiang Jin, after all, when the previous lieutenant was about to smash the wall, Xiang Jin was resolutely opposed, since he was against it, why did he find someone to investigate?

Wei Chi was puzzled.

●

In the north area of the Chinese city, the Xiang family's mansion is in the Xiang Jin study.

Xiang Jin held a list in his hand, which was full of the names and quantities of those instruments provided to Wei Chiran.

Xiang Hua on the side stood respectfully, but he did not have the calmness of the past, but his face was full of sadness.

Xiang Jin handed the list to Xiang Hua: "Maybe they are close to the truth." ”

Xiang Hua said: "Maybe they will be the same as the previous group of people, and all of them will also disappear." ”

Xiang Jin looked at Xiang Hua: "You don't seem to want to see all this happen?" ”

Xiang Hua said: "The will left to you by the master alone is very clear, no matter what, don't go to find out the truth about Diming Tower." ”

Xiang Jindao: "But it is also written in the public will, whoever finds the truth can get the remaining thirty percent of the inheritance, isn't it a contradiction?" ”

Xiang Hua said: "Mr. Big, my master's original intention may not be to let you find out the truth, he knows very well that the second lady and Mr. Xiao can't find out the truth, so even if you make a will, it doesn't matter if you let them toss." ”

"Far-fetched." Xiang Jin got up after saying these two words, "The reason why the Xiang family can stand tall and become one of the richest families in Chinatown is because of this building, which my father used to tell me personally, and I am more curious about why he was obviously terminally ill, but because he entered this building, his life was delayed by two years." ”

Xiang Hua just looked at Xiang Jin, looking like he wanted to say something.

Xiang Jin changed the topic: "The last group of people I sent were elites in various fields, but they also disappeared, but before they disappeared, they also asked for all kinds of machinery, and soon after, you privately bought cement and steel bars, and also hired a few workers to enter the building, since then, the group of people I hired have disappeared, so many years have passed, I have never asked you why, I just hope you can take the initiative to say it." ”

Xiang Hua remained silent.

Xiang Jin said: "You are capable and knowledgeable, it is no exaggeration to say that after my father's death, if it weren't for you, my business would not be smooth sailing, plus my father's will stated that if I dismiss you, I will lose my inheritance, but ......"

Xiang Jin's face was suddenly full of anger: "But this doesn't mean that you can do whatever you want with your own righteousness, and you also want to prevent me from finding out the truth about Di Minglou!" ”

Xiang Hua finally said: "Mr. Big, everything I do is for your good, in fact, I also know that this time Zhu Kun and the second miss and Mr. Xiao forced you, which is also something you expected, you didn't agree at first, just to wait for the last step to have to agree, in this way, I can't insist on my own opinion." ”

Xiang Jin said coldly: "The matter has come to this. ”

Xiang Hua smiled bitterly and said, "That's right, the matter has come to this, let it be fate." ”

After speaking, Xiang Hua bowed slightly, turned around and left Xiang Jin's study.

After the door was closed, Xiang Jin quickly stepped forward to lock the door, closed the window, closed the curtains, and turned on the anti-eavesdropping device, then turned on the computer, logged in to a mysterious client with a box icon, and after skillfully entering the username and password, he finally entered a video page.

At the same time, the camera on Xiang Jin's computer was also turned on.

In the video page, only a pair of hands on the table and wearing gloves appeared, but the appearance and figure of the owner of the hand could not be seen at all, and even men and women could not be distinguished.

Xiang Jin stood in front of the camera, bowed deeply, and said, "Lord Chen." ”

The person called Lord Tatsu in the picture spoke, "How? ”

Lord Chen obviously used a voice changer, and his voice seemed very weird, which showed that he didn't want to be aware of his identity.

Xiang Jindao: "Everything is going well, the Zhu Kun you recommended is a powerful character." ”

Lord Chen laughed for a while: "He is not the original Zhu Kun, but another person, but it doesn't matter, the important thing is that he can help you find the truth." ”

Xiang Jin didn't care who replaced Zhu Kun, but asked: "If the truth can't help me......"

Lord Chen said, "The doctor said, how long can you live?" ”

Xiang Jin's face was full of sadness: "One year at most." ”

Lord Chen said: "Enough, even if he can't find out the truth, you can come to Chenzhou, my technology is enough for you to live until the day you die." ”

Xiang Jin was overjoyed and knelt down on one knee directly, but at this time, the Lord said: "But, according to the rules of Chenzhou, if you want to come to me, you must give up everything you have ever had, are you willing?" ”

Xiang Jin hesitated and didn't speak.

Yes, what's the point of giving up this luxurious life, even if you live?

Seeing that Xiang Jin didn't answer, Lord Chen just said, "You still have time, you can take advantage of this time to think about it." ”

As soon as Lord Chen's voice fell, the screen disappeared, and the display screen returned to the computer desktop.

Xiang Jin raised his eyes and looked at the box-shaped shortcut icon, still maintaining a kneeling posture.

How should he choose?

●

After completely digging up the filled hole in the room, it was already early in the morning, and the four of them were already exhausted.

Bao Junhao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Rest." ”

Suo Ning squatted there, but looked at the darkness below very strangely and said, "Strange, why is it dark down there?" ”

As he spoke, Suo Ning lit a ball of paper and threw it down, the ball of paper disappeared the moment it fell into the darkness, I don't know if it was because there was no oxygen and the flame was extinguished instantly, or because the darkness was so powerful that it could directly devour the light.

Wei Chiran frowned and said, "It seems that you can't go down easily." ”

Fang Xunyi proposed: "Rest, we need to rest sufficiently, since the gap has been opened, then all that remains is to think about how to go down and how to come back." ”

Suo Ning followed Bao Junhao back to his room, while Fang Xunyi came to Wei Chiran's room, and listened to the sound parsed by the software repeatedly.

After listening to the recording repeatedly, Wei Chiran said: "The woman said that someone is coming again, which shows that she and this man are not the people who entered this building in the past ten years." ”

After speaking, Wei Chi Chi dialed Chu Xia and asked her about the status of the investigation.

Chu Xia told him that it would be difficult to find out the 26 people who disappeared in the 10 years from 1968 to 1978, and that even if she was alone, it would take time to investigate with all kinds of clues, but she had already obtained the identities of the five missing policemen.

The five missing police officers are Team Leader Shinawatra and Deputy Team Leader Wichai, while the rest of the team members are Pula, Suni and Mika.

The team leader, Shinawatra, is 40 years old, and is the most experienced veteran policeman selected by the National Police Department of T, who has investigated many major cases that shocked the whole country, and is also the elite of the major crime team of the Ministry of Police, with strong organizational skills.

The deputy team leader, Wichai, is 35 years old, a former front-line anti-narcotics operative, and after being injured, he was transferred to civilian work, specializing in psychological analysis, and most importantly, he has an in-depth understanding of the construction field.

The team member Pula is 35 years old, born in the border defense force of country T, he used to be a soldier, and participated in more than a dozen large-scale operations to eliminate drug dealers, which can be said to be a lot of achievements, and later also entered the police anti-drug department, and is good at using all kinds of firearms.

Team member Suni is 25 years old, an elite of the intelligence analysis department of the National Police Department, good at intelligence collection and analysis.

Mika, the 22-year-old member of the group, is the youngest of all the group members and the one with the least information.
