Chapter 198: Twelve and Sixteen

Standing in place, I was in a very bad mood, and An Beimo sat on the stone and looked at me, seeing that I looked dejected, he actually asked me with a smile: "Is it very angry that I was brought into a dead end by me?" ”

I smiled wryly, sat down next to her, and said, "What's there to be angry about?" It's not the first time we've encountered this situation! After thinking about it, I said, "Besides, it's not necessarily a dead end!" ”

After a moment of silence, An Beimo said: "I still don't understand what this island is all about. We've come across so many dangers as soon as we came, it's so weird! But I always felt that something was wrong. ”

I said, "Not only is this island wrong, but the whole thing is wrong to me." ”

An Beimo turned off the flashlight in her hand, and in the darkness, she asked me, "What do you think?" ”

I gathered my thoughts and replied, "I had a question from the very beginning, how did the Demon Concubine find this island?" She's just a businessman and a gang leader, and it's said that she can't even find this island by satellite, but she can find it, and it's a little too big, don't you think it's weird? ”

An Beimo thought about it and asked me, "Do you think she looks like a businessman or a gang boss?" ”

I think back to the scene when I met the Demon Princess, and from her every move, it is indeed a little different from what I imagined.

I remember that in the restaurant of the hotel, the demon concubine behaved elegantly, spoke appropriately, and had a beautiful demeanor in her gestures.

It's a bit of a stretch to say that she's a successful businessman, but it's a bit far-fetched to say that she's the eldest sister of a Japanese gangster.

How to say it, the feeling that the demon concubine gives me is that she has an excellent temperament, but she is not domineering enough. It stands to reason that gangsters will more or less have some evil aura on their bodies. No matter how well the appearance is hidden, this momentum cannot be hidden.

Eyes, in particular, are the most likely to expose the inside. But the eyes of the demon concubine in my memory, except for being a little arrogant and cunning, do not have the spirit of a gangster at all.

Seeing that I couldn't answer for a while, An Beimo said: "Either this demon concubine is an excellent actor, or that woman is not a demon concubine at all!" ”

When An Beimo said this, I also had some doubts. However, recalling that the aura exuded by the demon concubine at that time was extraordinary, I didn't doubt her identity at all.

And at that time, it was the demon concubine who took the initiative to ask us to meet, since she took the initiative to invite, she didn't show her true face, which inevitably seemed a bit redundant.

I said, "This demon concubine wants money, money, and people, but she lets us fall into this muddy water." It seems that she doesn't fancy our abilities, but needs our identity! No one in Japan knows who we are, and even if something happens, it doesn't have anything to do with her. ”

"What about Arashi Kobayashi and Haruko Sakai?" An Beimo said quietly: "Why do they have to follow? I always feel that the reason for coming to my brother is a bit far-fetched! ”

I was curious and asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

An Beimo said: "It's just a gut feeling on my part, I found that Xiao Lin Lan doesn't seem to be so nervous about her brother's affairs. There is also Haruko Sakai, who is very average in all aspects, but also insists on going to the island with us. We can't run away here, are they just there to spy on us? ”

I said, "Don't they dare to disobey the orders of the demon concubine?" ”

An Beimo sneered and said: "The demon concubine is such a shrewd person, knowing that these two people are dragging their feet when they come with her, and they will die in vain." It would be nice to let them stay on the ship, why should they risk their lives? ”

This is a fact, what An Beimo said is not wrong at all. I see that Kobayashi Lan and Haruko Sakai are following the demon concubine, their positions are not low, they should not be dispensable characters, this is indeed doubtful.

At this time, An Beimo said again: "Forget it, let's find a way to get out of here first." Stuck here, you can't get any answers! ”

I thought it was right, so I stood up and turned on my flashlight to look around for a way to get out of here.

When the flashlight shone upward, I was surprised to find that the rock above my head, which had been closed, opened silently at some point.

I hurriedly greeted An Beimo and said in surprise: "Look! The passage is open again, let's go up and get out of here. ”

An Beimo didn't expect it, seeing that I was about to climb up, he grabbed me and said, "Wait!" Don't go up yet. How did the closed passage open again on its own? ”

I said, "It must have been caused by the earthquake just now, so why don't you hesitate at this time, let's leave quickly." If you close it after a while, you may not be able to open it again! ”

An Beimo didn't let go of my hand, she pondered for a moment, but still stopped me. She said, "We'll wait and see!" ”

I was very puzzled, but since An Beimo was not at ease, I didn't insist, just climbed two steps up the slope, and came back reflexively.

An Beimo asked me to keep looking at the open gap above my head, her eyes were staring, and her expression was very serious.

I didn't know what she was looking at, but I didn't ask.

After a long time, the boulder above the head slowly descended again, closing the passage again. I looked at An Beimo with a surprised face, but saw her lower her head and turn on the timer on her watch and press the timing button.

An Beimo obviously expected this situation, and I wanted to ask several times, but seeing that she was still staring at it with a solemn expression, I had to hold back.

After a while, the closed passage slowly opened again, and I saw that An Beimo immediately pressed it on the timing button. I leaned over and took a look, and the chronograph was sixteen minutes and a few seconds.

Then An Beimo reset the number to zero and re-timed.

I already vaguely knew what An Beimo was calculating, and sure enough, the passage that opened after a while was closed again.

An Beimo pressed the timing button, and this time it showed a difference of a few seconds and twelve minutes.

An Beimo said at this time: "As I guessed, the above mechanism is running repeatedly. The opening time is twelve minutes and the closing time is sixteen minutes. ”

I was shocked and said, "Is there a mechanism on this desert island?" It's also weird. Isn't this a mountain that emerges from the sea? I really can't understand how there is such a thing! ”

An Beimo looked at the time and said indifferently: "I don't understand either, but now that we know the cycle time of the organ, at least we are no longer so passive." After waiting another sixteen minutes, we will have twelve minutes to go out, and with that time, we will go out and find our way. ”

I've been completely confused, and I feel like there's no normal place on this island. Either way, the first priority is to get out of here first. I said to An Beimo: "I'll be in front for a while, and you follow me." ”

Sixteen minutes passed slowly in my anxious waiting, and sure enough, the passage above my head opened again. An Beimo and I raced against time to get into the narrow passage and crawl forward as fast as we could.

We only have 12 minutes, and if we can't find a way out or our next hiding place, we will still face the danger of being crushed.

I looked at my watch and crawled forward quickly. In the ten minutes I waited just now, I felt that time was really slow. But now that I entered the corridor and started the countdown, I felt that time had passed too quickly.

When I crawled, I was very fast, which was trained in the troops. But this way of action is obviously not An Beimo's forte, when I looked back at her halfway, I found that she had already seen sweat on her forehead, and the distance between her and me was getting farther and farther.

Advancing on the ground so quickly is very physically exhausting, and An Beimo is already tired. I looked down at the time, and six minutes had passed. We had not traveled a long distance, and in the meantime we had not seen any other forks in the road, nor had we found any further holes to hide in, and a low, narrow black road seemed to have no end at all.

An Beimo was very strong, she gritted her teeth and chased after her without saying a word. I wanted to say something encouraging, but I felt redundant, so I had an idea and asked An Beimo: "By the way, how did you just see that this is a mechanism, and there is repetition?" ”

An Beimo took a breath and replied: "It's all rock formations here, and there will definitely be no sophisticated mechanisms." When we entered the corridor, we didn't trigger anything, but it suddenly closed. So I took a big gamble and guessed that there might be a circulatory mechanism. ”

I heard her say something lightly, and I couldn't help but turn my head and ask her, "What if you guessed wrong?" ”

The corners of An Beimo's mouth curled slightly, and he said, "Then it is very likely that you will be trapped here." But I'm not a loss, isn't it with you! ”

The more she said it, the more surprised I became, thinking that this little aunt really dared to gamble, and life and death seemed to matter to her at all.

I glanced down at the time, it had been eight minutes, and I couldn't help but panic a little. However, I continued to talk to An Beimo: "You never seem to have mentioned your family, how are they?" ”

An Beimo's voice suddenly became cold, and he replied, "Why are you asking this?" ”

I heard that her tone was wrong, and quickly replied, "Don't do it, just ask." You don't want to say it, just because I didn't ask. ”

There was a hint of embarrassment in the atmosphere immediately, and after a few seconds, An Beimo's tone eased slightly, and said to me: "Maybe I'll tell you later, but I don't want to say it now." ”

As soon as An Beimo said this, I immediately felt that she must have something unspeakable, and I couldn't help but regret mentioning this topic a little.

I changed the subject and said, "Have you ever been to Tianjin?" If I have a chance, I'll take you to Tianjin to play. Our headquarters is also close, and I will take you to Tianjin snacks when I come back. ”

I didn't hear An Beimo's answer, so I continued: "Actually, I've always wanted to go back to see my parents and my parents, but I'm a little stunned. My old man has a very hot temper, in case he knows that my *** is a desperate job, he has to scold me to death! ”

An Beimo suddenly asked me, "Why are you telling me this?" ”

I was speechless for a while, in fact, I originally intended to find some topics to distract An Beimo's attention and reduce her fatigue. I don't really know how to chat, so I say something inexplicable.

But I hesitated, but I still had the audacity to say, "I want to take you home and meet my parents!" ”

As soon as I finished speaking, my heart began to pound. The meaning of my words couldn't be more obvious, taking An Beimo to my house, that is to treat her as my girlfriend.

After a while, I didn't listen to An Beimo's words. I thought she was angry, or she didn't agree at all, and it made her feel upset.

"Okay!" An Beimo said coldly: "It just so happens that I haven't been to Tianjin either. ”

I was ecstatic and asked, "You—do you agree?" ”
