Before we begin this chapter, it is necessary to go through the details of the structure of the basement. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There's a lot going on in this basement, but I've never described it properly.

Its entrance is located in the moon flower bush directly in front of the Bird House, hidden among the dense clusters of flowers.

As we have said, a large area of land directly in front of the house to the rope bridge is full of wild rhododendrons and moon flowers, except for the narrow path in front of the house, which are very tall because of the suitable climate on the mountain.

On either side of the flowers, there are clumps of low shrubs, and many small poplars that are not densely poplar, which extend to the back of the house, and join together at the back of the house, forming the grove behind the house, which we have mentioned.

The roof of Luoque is from the south to the north, and the front of the south side to the front of the rope bridge is about seventy or eighty meters, and the entrance to the basement we are talking about is more than 50 meters away from the front of the Luoque house, which means that its orientation is closer to the rope bridge.

The entrance to the basement is covered in withered or fallen branches and a thick layer of dirt, making it difficult to find and open.

When G first entered, he also searched for a long time before he found out.

This time, because of G's guidance, R and G didn't make much effort, but it took a little effort to clean up the re-covered dirt and stumps.

The first step in entering the basement is to climb down an almost vertical wooden staircase, which is the most common and very simple small wooden ladder, but you will find no sound when you walk on it, and there is no creak that ordinary wooden ladders make.

Because when it was made, special materials were padded into the joints of each layer of wood, and of course the R and G in the dark were impossible to find.

They also didn't have time to think about whether the wooden ladder would make a sound, and perhaps someone noticed, but the two of them wouldn't talk about it now, because they had more important obstacles to solve.

After walking down the stairs, just like an ordinary basement, the dark and unexpected passage is presented in front of you, not narrow, if there is no wooden door in front of you, it will make people think that the basement is like this, all the way to the end.

There is no lighting in the basement, but the walls on both sides and the road under your feet are very smooth, and it looks like it is meant to be used regularly.

As for why the lighting was not installed, there are of course necessary reasons, but we don't know yet.

Then there is the large space inside the wooden door, which is very special, almost the size of the living room on the upper floor.

It's actually located right in front of the Bird's House, and it hasn't touched the House yet.

The special evidence we mentioned earlier is in this large space.

Walking through the large space like the living room, there is a gap without a door, which is the size of an ordinary door frame, and fits seamlessly into the wall.

Further inside, there is a passage, from narrow to wide, leading to the exit of the basement, which is the opening in the small storage room on the first floor of the Roquehouse, also connected by a narrow wooden staircase.

The structure of the wooden staircase is the same as that of the staircase at the entrance, so it does not make a creaking sound. When people walk on it, there is at most the sound of footsteps on the ground.

If you take off your shoes or if you can take a light step, it is easy to cover up the past if you are not careful.

And it was because of this that G at that time was not discovered by R and L upstairs.

To sum up, the basement of the Bird's House is not actually under the Bird's House, but under the flowers in front of it.

The basement is very long, from the entrance to the exit, at least about fifty meters, it is a shape that is narrow at both ends and spacious in the middle.

The current R and G are blocked in front of the two wooden doors that approach the entrance.

Although the wooden door has decayed, the original wood is thick and hard, so it is difficult to open the gap from it with bare hands.

And at the moment, R and G are struggling with this.

Both of them were wounded in their hands and feet, and they had not eaten for at least a day and a half since the afternoon of May 2, and they had drunk a lot of water, but it was rain from the sky.

In other words, the current time should be the night of May 3, and it is already very late, about seven or eight o'clock when you look at the sky.

Because S City is a southern city, it is usually very humid in summer and the days are very long, and in May, the day is almost until about 6 o'clock, and the sky is not very dark.

So judging from the already dark sky, it was at least seven or eight o'clock.

The wounds on the hands and feet, hunger, and fatigue seriously affected the movement of the two men at the moment, and they took turns prying and pulling the cracks around the wooden doorknobs, and one person moved, and the other rested to conserve his strength.

After almost ten minutes, the wooden door still did not move, which made both men very discouraged.

They stopped, bent over to gasp, sweat sticking down their foreheads, and their almost naked upper bodies were oozing with sweat.

"What to do? This guy is so hard! G asked R in between breaths.

"It's definitely not going to work like this, you have to find a tool." R looked around, his brow furrowed tightly.

But where are the tools for them in this empty space? The two men were wondering what else could be done to sum it up.

That's when —

"Bang!!" "Bang!!" "Bang!!" ……

A loud deafening blow reached their ears, echoing through the closed underground passages, almost bursting their eardrums.

"Who? Who is it?! ”

R and G suddenly became nervous, and listening to this voice, it seemed that someone outside was smashing the cover of the basement entrance with some big tool.

If it is the murderer, then no matter how the two men inside resist, the murderer may be able to kill them.

Without time to hesitate, R and G quickly curled up and ducked into the corner.

Since there are no tools or weapons to use, then we can only wait for a preemptive strike, hoping to avoid a catastrophe.

Never before have the two men been so close together as they are now, facing together a possible imminent enemy.

The loud knocking continued, the entrance cover was already covered with cracks, as if it was about to burst in a second, and the nerves of the two men in the room were getting tighter and tighter.

Within a few minutes, the wooden blocks on the top fell like shattered tempered glass, and the wood chips fell everywhere.

With the sound of hurried footsteps, a short, even petite, black shadow rushed down.

The footsteps were not considered to be running, and they almost fell into the underground passage.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, the black shadow stirred, and one staggered forward, and the large tool in his hand fell to the ground with a screeching sound, helping him to support the leaning body.

After standing up again, the shadow continued to rush forward like crazy.

He raised his weapon high and rushed towards the big wooden gate with a clear goal, and R and G, who were hiding in the corner, were almost stunned, and even forgot the plan of the raid.

They couldn't be blamed for that, because as soon as the dark shadow entered the basement, they vaguely guessed his identity.

That's why I'm so surprised......
