Chapter 245: The Joy of Welcoming the Light

Being locked up in such a dull place, our mood has been affected, and we don't feel how obvious it is, but Qiu Xian's changes are very intense.

From the initial forbearance, to the roar and roar, then the frenzied fist slamming against the wall, and finally the breathless rest.

Day after day, I watched his change of heart in a daze, as if I was watching a performance by one person in a TV series. At first I tried to convince him to calm down and not be distracted by the predicament around him, but on the fifth day, we started to have a conflict because the food was getting scarce and we started to fight inadvertently.

It wasn't until we reacted that we were surprised and feared that we had unknowingly become beasts locked in cages by others, competing for food! Eventually, it all fell silent until a full week passed.

Qiu Xian and I were like two corpses, lying on the ground, sharing a bottle of soda, looking at the darkness around us.

The anger burned in the body, but it was evaporated by the weak body, and I could only close my eyes again, waiting, and hoping for the end.

On the eighth day, when I fell asleep from hunger, I bit Qiu Xian's arm, until I was awakened by his slap, looking at the blood in my mouth, and I retreated frantically.

While saying I'm sorry, I hugged my head and slammed my head on the ground.

When my own blood was mixed with Qiu Xian's blood, I realized that Qiu Xian came over, patted me on the shoulder, and handed me an unused towel.

I looked up at him, didn't say anything, took it and hurriedly wiped it on my face, wiped all the blood away, and threw the towel away.

I huddled in the corner again, waiting for time to pass.

The glow sticks have run out, we only have mobile phones to light and look at the time, and now there is only one percent of the battery left

The time had come to ten o'clock in the evening, I heard my stomach still screaming, but there was nothing to eat, the hand holding the mobile phone was trembling, and when I looked at Qiu Xian, he was also lying not far away, with a towel wrapped in his hand, temporarily stopping the speed of blood flowing.

I've tried to make a lot of calls to people outside, but when we're crazy with hunger, we still haven't heard anyone answer.

Maybe these damn guys have left, and now it's just the two of us trapped here waiting to die.

After dozens of phone calls in a row, the battery of the mobile phone kept decreasing, so now we can only rely on the darkness.

When the hunger pangs hit, I really wanted to chew something in my mouth, so I closed my eyes, tore a piece of paper from the cardboard box, and chewed it as if I were eating.

But the taste was really unpleasant, and I had to deceive myself and think of them as chocolate and cookies. Or something else.

This method made me feel better, so I threw the box to Qiu Xian, in this case, I was not interested in explaining so much to him.

After lying on the ground, he heard the sound of tearing and tearing, and Qiu Xian also chewed, but listening to the sound, it seemed to be the sound of pancakes from street vendors.

When I woke up again, I thought it was the next day, but when I took out my phone and looked at it, it was only two hours later.

I scolded in my heart, I got up, and I was about to touch the box again, but at this time, the mobile phone next to me suddenly rang.

I was shocked, this was the first call I had ever made, and I didn't expect them to call me.

I was pleasantly surprised to pick up the phone, but my hands were shaking uncontrollably, so I dropped the phone, but I still connected the life-saving call before the ringtone disappeared.

However, looking at the screen in power saving mode, flashing, and in the state of calling, I didn't dare to press the speakerphone, and put my ear close to the earpiece, but I was about to open my mouth, but I felt a little weak.

"Hey, come out now, there's someone waiting for you outside...... The door will open soon......" The sound was intermittent, and I don't know if it was because I didn't hear clearly, or if it was a problem with the cell phone signal, but I was able to remember a few keywords.

"The door opened, someone was waiting for me...... In the darkness of my heart, a fire suddenly lit up, and then I struggled to get up, supported my body, and walked forward.

But as soon as he walked not far, he immediately turned back and glanced at Qiu Xian, and finally kicked him a few times weakly. The other man's eyelids slowly opened, and then he reached out in the darkness and grabbed my feet.

At this time, the last bit of power of the mobile phone is also exhausted, but I still pressed the power button, under normal circumstances, the power of the mobile phone, and it is impossible to completely use the level of not flashing?

Although it is not good for the phone to force it on when the battery is exhausted, I have no hesitation in the current situation.

Through the boot animation, that short screen time, I took a picture of Qiu Xian's body, and signaled to him that it was me, and raised my hand to point to the exit position, signaling him to follow me.

Trapped here for so long, our desire to survive exploded at the sight of hope, and although the road was long, we still came along. When my body hit the stone wall heavily, I felt the stone wall collapse outward, and then a ray of light came through.

The sudden light shook us for a moment, and then we fell to the ground.

I don't know if I would be starved for two days, and in such a dark place, others would be as unbearable as I am, but I don't remember how I survived.

Qiu Xian and I stayed in that place for eight days, no, nine days, because on the last day, we were still in the darkness of each other's coma.

When I woke up in a panic, my eyes were all white, this is the hospital, I immediately reacted, and called the nurse, asked me about my situation, she told me that this day and night, I was unconscious, and I played four bottles in a row, and I barely saved the person.

I looked at the needle in my arm and asked who had rescued us, and the little nurse replied, "It's the police in an ambulance, and you've been carried out, but you're covered in dried blood." I've also heard that you're being locked up in a sealed basement for at least ten days, what the hell is going on? ”

I scratched my head and asked, "What did the police say?" ”

"They didn't find anything, but in addition to you, a body was also found at the scene, which was killed by a cold weapon, the police initially suspect that the deceased may be the person who locked you up, do you remember?"

"I can't remember anything now! By the way, who called the police, my mobile phone doesn't seem to be able to contact the outside world! ”

The little nurse looked at me a few times, but finally shook her head, "It could be the murderer, the one who killed the guard!" ”

I nodded and asked again what about my friend? The other party replied that he was doing gastric lavage because a large amount of indigestible things had been found in his stomach, and even some chewed plastic products.

I smiled bitterly, it seems that Qiu Xian's physique is worse than mine, but I think he hasn't experienced too much.

As I was talking, a policeman came hurriedly outside the corridor, and when I looked up at him, I saw clearly that this person was Chen Haidong.

I squeezed a smile at him, and the nurse was told to go out, then the door was closed, locked, and the window closed as I walked back.

I saw that he was so nervous, so I asked?

After the other party came over, he asked me coldly, "What have you done in the past few days, how did things come to this!" ”

When he asked me like this, I was even more puzzled, "What's wrong, has anything happened recently?" ”

Seeing that I looked dazed, Chen Haidong also sat down, "I don't know what's going on with you, but in the past few days since you disappeared, the Investigation Bureau has secretly conducted a thorough investigation of your archives and discovered the mysterious theft of a large number of confidential files.

"Although the matter has been concealed, such a movement is not small, and the old bell is gone, I sent someone to inquire that he may have been transferred, or he may be controlled by another force.

"This force seems to be omnipresent, and it may also be dispatched from above to directly investigate these missing files, which is also the work of this force.

"Although the upper authorities tried their best to hide your identity, there are still many departments that have begun to investigate your problems, because except for Lao Zhong, you are the only one left!"

Hearing Chen Haidong say this, I didn't know how to answer him, recalling hearing that person's words in the basement, it seems that he knew that all this would happen,

But what have I done, and how can I make such a big fuss?

The stolen files, the transfer of the old clock, and the forces operating in the shadows have made the situation I am facing worse and worse.

But I had been locked in the basement and had done nothing, why had things come the way they were, I was holding my head, but I couldn't find my way, as if I hadn't been able to escape from that gloomy basement.

Chen Haidong looked at me in pain, and finally said, "We tried to control the scene, but your appearance, as well as the disappearance of Lao Zhong, will completely break all this, and now the only way is for you to come forward, either take all the responsibility, accept the relevant punishment, or find the lost file!" ”
