Whispering outside the door

How long has it been? Xiang Nanxing forgot that it was the first time he had such an idea. Genius remembers the first three or five in a second

If he was outside, even at night, he could roughly judge the time by the position of the moon. But this is underground.

In this area - presumably to deter intruders - the other side set up a strong magnetic interference, which not only caused the hands of the watch to move uncontrollably, but also directly abolished electronic devices such as mobile phones. The only thing on Xiang Nanxing's body that can still operate in this environment is the pair of intercom headphones specially made by the Nangong family, but under such magnetic field interference, although it still maintains normal operation at close range, it is already difficult to send and receive long-distance signals. In this way, he couldn't even ask Nangong Qian outside about the time, so he could only judge by feeling.

If you really want to talk about feelings, Xiang Nanxing feels that it should be dawn now.

Mechanical movements are inherently easy to give the illusion that it takes longer, not to mention the painful process of memories and trial and error that are added to the process. Xiang Nanxing's memory is already good, and he basically memorizes the map drawn by Nangong Yundie at that time, although he always has to stop and think about it from time to time, but there are not too many cases of opening the wrong door along the way.

Even if they occasionally turn a corner, they can often spot it in a few gates and turn back and retreat to the correct main road. This floor is different from the previous floor, there are several ventilation ducts to maintain indoor air circulation, so you don't have to be afraid of being affected by lack of oxygen while walking, even if you are tired of opening the door sometimes, you can rest in place to refresh your energy.

But even with all these favorable conditions, it still took them quite a long time to get out of this place. When he saw that the position of the door in front of him was perfectly aligned with the route in his memory, Xiang Nanxing raised his head and exhaled a long breath.

"Through here, it's the third floor." He slowly moved his hands and feet to dispel the fatigue accumulated along the way, "Okay, the end is just around the corner, let me take a breath and prepare." ”

Next to him, Nangong Yundie was full of energy. The main person who opened the door on this road was Xiang Nanxing, and she only shouted a few words of cheering next to her at most, and the rest of the time she just followed behind. As for the problem of finding the way, she is also honest, she really forgot if she said that she had forgotten, at the beginning, Xiang Nanxing deliberately took a fork in the road, wanting to test her reaction, but this little girl really followed without saying a word, without hesitation at all. So she not only saved physical work, but also threw mental work to temporary teammates, how tired Xiang Nanxing was at this time, how relaxed she was.

Compared with Xiang Nanxing, who was tired and could only hold her knees and bow her head to rest, she could still look left and right at this time, touch the walls on both sides, and press the closed door for a while, as if she was looking at some fun toy.

Suddenly, her brow furrowed slightly.

"Uncle, come and see this." She let go of her body and beckoned Xiang Nanxing to come over.

She pointed in the direction of the edge of the door frame, where there was a distinct scratch, as if someone had tried to pry it open with some kind of stick or something. Judging by the shape of the scratches and the degree of deformation of the door frame, this attempt did loosen the door a little, but it should have failed in the end.

The point is, the scratch looks very fresh at this point. Xiang Nanxing wiped it lightly with his fingers, and a little black stain was left on his fingertips, which showed that the time point of prying the door was just now, and the person who did this kind of thing probably hadn't gone far now.

Xiang Nanxing narrowed his eyes and looked at his fingertips, his brows furrowed unconsciously. Liang Jingmo is the kind of person who can be lazy and never spend more effort, and he has never considered it without thinking about stupid methods such as relying on strength to fight to the death. Things like picking up a stick and prying the door are not his style at all, for example, now, Xiang Nanxing can't imagine Liang Jingmo doing this while grinning.

Could it be that in addition to them and Nangong Yundie, there are other outsiders in this underground area?

He groaned slightly, then turned his head and asked, "Excuse me, are you the only one in your family who is responsible for this work?" ”

"Of course, I'm not the only one in the family who can do this." Nangong Yundie is also Bingxue smart, and immediately reacted, "But I'm the only one sent to be in charge of this work this time." And only one person can be responsible for 'order tracking', that's the rule. ”

"It's not from the Nangong family......" Xiang Nanxing nodded and touched his chin, "In this way, either another person from a third party, or Liang Jingmo did it when he was extremely emotional, but this latter situation ......"

"Oh, it's hard!"

He looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to vomit out the depression that had accumulated in his chest. There are no pick-up devices on this floor, and the sound insulation of the closed door panels is good, unless the target is on the other side of the door, there is no need to worry about the sound being heard.

However, before the sigh fell, his face suddenly changed slightly. Nangong Yundie noticed that the ear he was wearing moved slightly, and then his brows furrowed even deeper. He walked briskly forward, pressed his ear to the door, and listened carefully to the noise.

In the next second, he pounded the door panel hard.

"Liang Jingmo, you're over there!" He shouted, "Open the door, let's talk first!" ”

Nangong Yundie looked at Xiang Nanxing who suddenly burst out in shock and fear, and it was only after a second that she came back to her senses and figured it out a little.

"I see." She nodded, frightened, but did not forget to remind the other party, "You light!" ”

She noticed the thing Xiang Nanxing hanging on her ear very early, and it looked like it was a walkie-talkie or something, which was supposed to be used to communicate with the companion who left. Maybe it was because of meeting her before, Xiang Nanxing turned off the microphone and didn't want his companion to know the situation here, but his companion was still on. This long sigh just now passed through the door, and after a little sound was put into the microphone over there, it was transmitted back to Xiang Nanxing's ears through the headset one step later. Therefore, the latter found that his companion was opposite.

At this time, Xiang Nanxing shouted and smashed, his attitude was extremely firm, the other side might have wanted to get through the trick, but seeing him behave like this, he must have understood that he was exposed. After a while, when Xiang Nanxing eased up, Liang Jingmo's slow voice came from the other side of the door.

"Your speed is okay." His voice came through the thick door panel, and he couldn't hear the emotions inside, "It's only a door slower than me, and it seems that you have also discovered the number pattern in the maze." ”

Xiang Nanxing raised his hand to signal Nangong Yundie not to make a sound, and he himself responded in a deep voice against the crack of the door, "Don't think that only you are a smart person." The world is big, and sometimes you are too confident in yourself and you are likely to make irreparable mistakes. ”

"Thanks for the reminder, I've always thought you're a smart person." Liang Jingmo smiled, and changed his words, "It's just that it's too unlucky." I've just passed, and if you had sooner, you might have been able to intercept me. ”

A trace of anger flashed across Xiang Nanxing's face, and then he forced it down again. "I advise you to reconsider." He said in a deep voice, "There is no need to do some things so extremely, while there is still a chance, do you want to consider the best of both worlds?" ”

Liang Jingmo on the other side of the door was silent for a moment.

"You're with the people of the Nangong family, right?" When he opened his mouth, he broke it directly.

Nangong Yundie waved her hand in a panic to indicate that she had not leaked the secret, but Xiang Nanxing could only nod at her helplessly, indicating that she knew. Liang Jingmo naturally knew the rules of the Nangong family early on, and Xiang Nanxing's words just now were not only to persuade him to stop, but also to implicitly show him that his side had created another opportunity, hoping that he could reconsider it and not rush to kill them all.

All hinted at this, Liang Jingmo could guess that Xiang Nanxing met someone from the Nangong family, but it was not a difficult thing.

"Yes." He simply and graciously admitted, "So you know, this is an opportunity." It would have been better if I had swapped with you, but now is your chance to do what I want to do, and it's up to you to do it. ”

"What you want to do, huh." Liang Jingmo sneered, and suddenly changed the topic, "Have you taken a fork in the road this way, did you see anything in those rooms?" ”

"Absolutely." Xiang Nanxing hurriedly said, "But this is ...... the current problem."

"Relevant." Liang Jingmo said calmly, "After reading those, do you still think he is a person worth saving?" ”

Xiang Nanxing's mind naturally conjured up the picture of that laboratory. On the first floor, he had entered the only room due to lack of oxygen, and on the second floor, he had walked to a fork in the road, and entered some rooms at the end of the fork. The arrangement of those rooms gave him a very strange feeling, and they were full of strange things, such as all kinds of women's clothes, which were somewhat different from his understanding of the owner.

If anything, it's really a person with a lot of quirks.,Maybe this person usually gives people the impression of being gentle and amiable.,But in private he has some perverted interests.。 Thinking about it this way, it seems that it is not incomprehensible that he hired so many security guards to guard the gate and built such a mysterious underground area full of all kinds of mechanisms.

However, eccentrics are not the same as evildoers. When Xiang Nanxing thought of this, he also remembered the scene he had seen in the surveillance video before. At that time, the man stopped the car, crossed the road and picked up a helpless little beggar, let him into the car, and took him home.

"I've seen a few of them, and I still think he has a reason to be saved." Xiang Nanxing replied word by word.

The other side of the door was silent for a few seconds. It seemed that after a long time, Xiang Nanxing finally heard Liang Jingmo's voice again.

"Very well, that's your answer. After all, you still believe what you see at the beginning, and you don't bother to look at everything carefully. He spoke slowly, in a tone that seemed to carry a hint of sarcasm, "Then it's easy, the negotiation broke down." I'm going to move on and find him on the third level to settle this matter once and for all. ”

"Liang Jingmo, you!"

"Xiang Nanxing!"

This shout seems to contain anger, not like Liang Jingmo, who is usually graceful and traveling, and in Xiang Nanxing's impression, he rarely calls out his name directly.

"I'll keep going, that's all." He said word for word, "You can try to catch up and stop meβ€”"

"If you can do it."
