Bao Youyou followed her words and asked, "Is there any progress on your side?" ”

Sha Wenxiao shook his head very dejectedly: "There is hardly any progress, I asked around Yulong Street, and almost everyone said that there was nothing abnormal recently." The female owner of the stationery store said that some time ago, three men came to Yulong Street, and these three people were obviously full of masculinity, but they sprinkled a very strong perfume. ”

Pack: "You asked her, did the perfume smell specifically?" ”

Sha Wenxiao said: "It is said to be mint-flavored. I don't think it's a clue at all, and in recent times, there have been a lot of people on Yulong Street, and just a smell of perfume can't mean that there is something wrong with those three people. And the female owner of the stationery store also said that the three people bought a pot of glue from her, and then left Yulong Street and never came back. ”

Bao Youyou asked her again: "Have you asked about every store on the street?" ”

Sha Wenxiao said: "I didn't ask about the shops at the entrance of the street, those shops are not opened by people in the industry, and rashly entering to ask questions may cause some unnecessary trouble." ”

Bao Youyong clasped his hand and nodded thoughtfully.

Li Huaishan's mouth was fast, and at this time he took the initiative to ask Sha Wenxiao: "Hey, I said this eldest sister, how can you be sure that those people you questioned are telling the truth?" ”

Among the few of us, Sha Wenxiao seemed to hate Li Huaishan very much, Li Huaishan talked to him, and she just snorted coldly, without the intention of responding positively at all, which made Li Huaishan blackface on the spot.

Bao Yong saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately stood up to play a round, and he replied to Li Huaishan instead of Sha Wenxiao: "If you are not a bad person, you are born not to lie, but Sha Wenxiao is the opposite of Yan Ruo, she has a wonderful kung fu that can make all the people who look at her tell the truth." ”

No wonder Tong Heng specially invited Sha Wenxiao to assist in investigating Su Yunbin's matter, it turned out to be because of this.

Li Huaishan pursed his lips disapprovingly, and was about to speak again.

I was afraid that he would say something that would make Sha Wenxiao unhappy, so I immediately snatched away his words: "Ergou, when you went to Nanguang Middle School, did you notice anything abnormal?" ”

I asked this question just now, but Li Huaishan changed the topic, and now I ask again, originally just to draw Li Huaishan's attention, but I didn't expect Li Huaishan to really nod: "Ah, there is an empty alley behind the school playground, the alley is adjacent to the playground wall in the north, and the old dormitory area of Nanguang Middle School is in the south. ”

I didn't get to the point for a long time.

In desperation, I could only continue to ask: "Do you think there is a problem in the back alley of the school?" ”

"I don't know if there's a problem," Li Huaishan scratched his scalp and said with some uncertainty: "Anyway, when I saw that alley, I felt very awkward in my heart, and the feeling was exactly the same as when I saw the cart and the corridor lights in the corridor." ”

Hearing him say this, I was almost sure that there must be something wrong with the back alley of the school, so I immediately looked over to Bao You.

Bao Youyong waved his hand at me: "Don't look at me, what to do next, you decide." ”

I didn't talk nonsense, and immediately left the hotel with everyone and went straight to the alley behind Nanguang Middle School.

As Li Huaishan said, the alley is adjacent to the middle school playground in the north, and the south side is next to an old dormitory area that seems to have been abandoned, the whole alley is very narrow, the width of the left and right is less than five meters, and now it is the time for students to go to class, and the silence in the narrow alley makes people panic.

At first glance, the back of my head tingles.

And when Li Huaishan led us to the small iron gate that opened on the back wall of the playground, I immediately felt very awkward, especially when my eyes fell on the ground, this feeling became a little stronger out of thin air.

Bao Youyou probably saw the change in my face, so he pointed to the ground and asked, "Is this it?" ”

I nodded, "Seems so." ”

As soon as I said this, Bao Yong immediately leaned down, carefully looked at the weeds growing on both sides of the road, and then pressed his entire side face to the ground, as if listening to the movement from the ground.

After a long time, he stood up, pointed to the ground with his toes, and said to me, "There is a very thick sewer under the ground, and it is right here that crosses the alley." ”

Li Huaishan: "That is, there is a problem with the sewer, anyway, I just walked here and felt wrong." ”

Bao Yong rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully, "The key is, where does this sewer come from?" ”

I couldn't help but wonder, "Isn't it the sewer in the school?" ”

Bao Yong shook his head: "The sewage network on this side of the Bohai Sea is complicated, and although part of this waterway is near the school, it may also pass through from other places. By the way, when you said that there was a problem with Yulong Street, I forgot to ask you, what is the problem with Yulong Street? Do you think a particular shop is abnormal, or is there a problem with a certain section of Fish Dragon Street? ”

I smacked my tongue and said, "It's not a certain store, it's not a certain section, but the whole Yulong Street seems to have a problem." ”

Bao Youyou frowned at first, then looked at the ground, and said to himself: "What if the sewer is not crossed, but crossed?" ”

I immediately understood what he meant: "Let's go back to Yulong Street!" ”

After saying that, I took a quick step towards the side of Yulong Street, and Bao Yong followed in three steps and two steps, while taking out his mobile phone, his thumb moving rapidly on the phone, as if he was texting someone.

After returning to Yulong Street, Bao Youyou first handed me his phone and asked me to help him keep an eye on MMS, and then lay on the ground and listened carefully to the sound coming from the ground.

Ten minutes later, Bao Youyou stood up with a frown, and a prompt appeared on his phone that an MMS message had been sent to his mailbox.

I don't need to remind you, Bao Youyou reached out and got his phone back, and he said to me while opening the MMS message: "It's not wrong, there is indeed a sewage pipe running through Yulong Street, in fact, it is not that there is a problem with Yulong Street, but that this sewage pipe is wrong." ”

I nodded, and leaned over to Bao You's side.

He had already opened the MMS message, and saw a miniature version of the Bohai Bay sewage system network diagram on the screen, because this diagram was so small that I could only see the intricate line segments, and I couldn't see anything else.

In addition, those lines were so dense that I felt a little dizzy after looking at them twice, so I quickly looked away.

But the bag is useful but has been staring very intently at the phone screen.

After a short while, he turned around and looked towards the entrance of Yulong Street, and from time to time he looked at the screen of his mobile phone, as if he had found something.

"I remember that there should be a bathhouse at the entrance of Yulong Street, right?" Bao asked Sha Wenxiao.

Sha Wenxiao nodded: "There is indeed a bathhouse, but it is not on Yulong Street, it is just relatively close to Yulong Street." ”

Bao Youyou carefully put away his mobile phone and said to me: "The sewage pipe behind Nanguang Middle School leads from Yulong Street, and the bathhouse at the entrance of the street is the starting point of this pipeline. Hehe, I think what the stationery store owner smelled from the three men was not a perfume smell, but a mint soap. ”

Sha Wenxiao: "Are you saying there's something wrong with that bathhouse?" But I asked the people on Yulong Street, and they all said that the owner of the shop was not from the business. ”

Bao Yong immediately frowned: "It's not a person in the industry, but it may not want to meddle in the affairs of the industry." ”

As he spoke, Bao Yong turned his gaze to me.

I knew what he meant, and immediately nodded: "Go to the bathhouse and have a look." ”

The expression on Bao Yong's face froze briefly for a moment, and then showed a very relieved smile.

Seriously, even today, I can't understand why he had such a change in expression at that time.

The bathhouse mentioned by Sha Wenxiao is on the left side of the entrance of Yulong Street, and in that direction, there is a restaurant that is closely adjacent to Yulong Street.

This is an old hall, most of the white tiles outside the door have been broken, and the double-opened wooden door is also seriously corroded, showing a large gap of about two centimeters between the bottom of the door and the ground, and on the old glass of the wooden door, four words are posted with red tape: "hot water, bath".

When I first saw the door, I just thought it was old and didn't feel anything else out of the ordinary.

Two or three people who had just finished bathing pushed the door open, and a few of us left to make way for others.

One of them almost touched my shoulder as he walked past me, and I could smell a refreshing mint scent from him.

Sha Wenxiao probably smelled this smell too, I glanced at her, and saw that she was looking back at those people, her brows tightly twisted together.

Bao Yong asked me next to me, "How is it, is there anything abnormal?" ”

I pouted noncommittally, "Let's go in and see." ”

Bao Youyou pushed open the door to the bathhouse, and a few of us followed him in. There was no counter in the old bathhouse, and a small chair was placed near the entrance to the men's and women's bathrooms, where a middle-aged man with a burly figure sat and stared at the cabinet on the west wall while sipping tea.

I noticed a plastic bag hanging from the arm of the chair filled with blue oval magnetic cards.

Bao Yong leaned into my ear and whispered, "He's the shopkeeper." ”

For now, the middle-aged man in front of me feels that everything is normal, but the magnetic cards in the bag make me feel a little awkward.

I habitually scratched my temples, turned to Sha Wenxiao and said, "The three of us go in to take a bath, and you go to a nearby restaurant and wait for us." ”

Sha Wenxiao first quietly pointed to the shopkeeper and gave me an inquiring look, I shook my head at her, she hesitated slightly, and finally left the bathhouse.
