It's quiet, but it's too quiet.

Before he could reach the vicinity of the hiding place, he sensed that something was wrong, his face turned grim, and he held his knife in one hand and reached out with the other to stop Lydia.

However, although Lydia is not sharper than Ebony He, as an Interpol, the necessary qualities still make her sense that something is wrong, and she stops before Ebony reaches out.

"You found out too?" Ebony asked in a low voice.

"Ah, that's not right," Lydia touched her bow and arrows, ready to fight, "at this distance, you should already be able to hear them." ”

"Let's go." Sure enough, something happened, and Ebony strode towards the archaeological team's hideout, not worrying that there would be an ambush ahead, and Lydia couldn't stop it.

"Hey, you're ......" Lydia hurried to catch up with Ebony, but since he wasn't afraid of an ambush at all, she hid behind him with peace of mind.

However, the scene in front of her made Lydia bite off the words she had just spoken in an instant.

"Kulusseau, March, Rodman......" Lydia looked at the corpse puppet lying in front of her with its head blown off, and the whole person froze in place.

Ebony glanced down to make sure that the Europeans in military uniforms matched the figures in the photographs he had seen before, and then stepped over their bodies.

Before he even entered the hiding place, Ebony could see the scene inside by being pushed down the wall by several corpse puppets.

It's neat and really neat inside.

The archaeological team's materials and equipment were not taken away, and most of the materials were left. The bodies of Hu Fei and Wu Sheng lay peacefully on the ground, as if they were sleeping, their faces were serene and neat - except for a large hole in their hearts.

All the corpse puppets stopped outside the house, and only a trail of footprints walked inside. And it seems that the owner of the footprints is quite laid-back.

"The blood is dry." Ebony stepped over the ruins and walked into the house, carefully observing Hu Fei and Wu Sheng, who were now like clay figures, all the other bodily fluids except for the moisture needed to maintain their appearance.

"Damn Gao Sen, you actually played with their corpses like this, it's just inhuman!" Lydia's clear voice, filled with hatred and anger, rang out behind Ebony Hop.

With a small sniffing sound, Lydia was silent for a long time, adjusted her mood, and came to Ebony with a cold face.

"Let's go along and see the others first." Lydia dropped a sentence and ran to the escape route she had devised with Ebony.

"In order to disturb our hearts, did you deliberately show it to us?" Ebony He feels very unpleasant now, the dead Lao Hu and Lao Wu, the dead people who were toyed with, and Lydia who became impulsive, this mastermind behind the scenes is very good at playing.

But just leaving the house that served as a hiding place through the gate on the other side was like entering another new world.

Gao Jia's footprints only came to an abrupt end when they reached the doorway, no, to be exact, they should have been cleaned.

Ebony looked at the string of intruders' footsteps that had also disappeared in the doorway, and the swept streets outside the door, and rubbed his teeth.

Lydia wandered around the neighborhood and returned to Ebony with a low air pressure: "No, there are no clues, the surroundings are too clean, there are no footprints at all." ”

"Let's go to the second shelter that has been prepared, maybe they've already passed." Lydia perked up and turned to run again.

"......" Ebony wants to roll his eyes to Lydia, saying these things that he doesn't believe, what are you doing running around and wasting energy?

If it's just the archaeological team's footprints that have disappeared, it can be said that they have cleverly cleaned up their own traces of escape to prevent others from tracking them.

But now it can be seen that the footprints of the unknown intruder have also disappeared, and there is a high probability that the intruder took the remaining teammates of the archaeological team.

"Forget it, let's keep up with Lydia first." Ebony was like a flying bear in the clouds, and between a few strides and jumps, he caught up with Lydia, who ran first.

Without saying a word, the two men hurried to the second shelter that Ebony had prepared for the archaeological team. Unsurprisingly, there is no one here either.

However, it is not without changes.

The floor of the second vault was full of messy footprints, and Ebony He seemed to be able to see Zhao Ding and them rushing in in a panic, and then, blocking the door with force.

Ebony turned his head to look at the large stone that had been pushed aside, it was the one he had specially found to be the door.

"They first hid in a panic, then closed the door, and looked at the footprints, it should have been pushed by Zhao Ding and Han Yi." Lydia and Ebony stood outside the "crime scene" and began to reason.

Then the intruder came after him, and it seemed that they were not smart enough to clean up the footprints. Then, the door was opened, and they stepped back in fear...... "To Ebony's surprise, Lydia suddenly calmed down, and even began to solve the case in an orderly manner."

"No, no, the forward steps are stacked on the backward steps, they first retreat, then forward?" Lydia touched her chin and looked closely at the footprints in the room.

"It was they who pushed the door open and let the intruders in!" Lydia took a deep breath, her face full of confusion and surprise, "What's going on, why would they do this?" ”

Ebony He stared carefully at the intruder's footprints for a long time, only to suddenly realize that the owner of the footprints was an acquaintance.

"I think I know why." Ebony narrowed his eyes and mentally simulated the scene at that time.

Zhao Ding and Han Yi took Gao Jia, Li Xiaoice, Associate Professor Hao Ren and Old Master Han Duwei to hide here, pushed the stone hard, and blocked the door.

Then, there was a knock on the door, and everyone was startled and retreated away from the door. But one of them, bold enough to come out and peek out.

Looking at the footprints in front of the small slit, it should be Li Xiaoice, a girl who is a little introverted and silent. Then she beckoned the two boys to open the door, and everyone gathered around.

Then, the man they knew well, who had already turned into a demon, mercilessly trampled on the hearts of their friends who were cheering and approaching, and captured them all, after the gate was opened.

"Sun Dawu." Ebony muttered the name and stepped through the door.

"Be careful, the intruder only has footprints in to indicate that he's still inside!" Lydia hurriedly stretched out her bow and arrows, holding her throat to dissuade Ebony.

"yes, of course he's not gone yet." Ebony looked at Sun Dawu's body embedded in the ceiling.

Sun Dawu was still wearing the same clothes and shoes he had worn when he disappeared, but he was already in rags and covered in wounds. He was pressed against the ceiling, staring down with an eerie smile.
