Jiang Xinglong followed Luo Yifan's gaze and found that the wooden planks on the inside of the rectangular compartment that popped out of the wall were open. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Originally, the two corpses filled this space to the brim, and they couldn't see the situation behind them clearly, but because Luo Yifan picked up the corpse above in a faux fit just now, most of the corpses above moved to the outside of the compartment, so now they can clearly see the dark space behind the compartment and the square opening on one side.

'It's really the way out!' Jiang Xinglong was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately said, "Let's go quickly." “

"Wait." Luo Yifan motioned for him to wait, and then carefully carried the body of his "lover" out of the compartment, let him lie flat on the ground, and took off his coat to cover the corpse's face.

Luo Yifan leaned over and gently kissed the corpse's mouth through his coat, and finally glanced at the little man who had lost his feet before turning his head fiercely.

said to Jiang Xinglong: "Hurry up and get this corpse out, otherwise we won't be able to squeeze in." Luo Yifan was referring to the female corpse that remained in the compartment.

"Okay." Jiang Xinglong immediately acted with Luo Yifan.

One of them picked up the upper body of the corpse, and the other lifted the legs.

In order not to see the corpse's terrible face again, Jiang Xinglong slightly turned his head when he picked up the upper body of the corpse.

But it was precisely this action that made his eyes meet the chest of the corpse, and the moment his eyes were focused, Jiang Xinglong was slightly stunned.

But this was only a matter of a moment, and soon Jiang Xinglong returned to normalcy and carried the corpses outside the compartment with Luo Yifan, so that the two corpses lay side by side.

After putting down the corpse, Jiang Xinglong did the same, and also took off his suit jacket and covered the face of the female corpse.

His action was very natural, as if he did it because of the poor female corpse, so it didn't arouse the suspicion of Luo Yifan next to him.

Then Luo Yifan took the lead, and the two of them climbed into the compartment one after the other.

After entering, it was discovered that the square opening on the side of the space behind the compartment was actually a vertical hanging ladder outside.

This made both men breathe a sigh of relief for a while.

Luo Yifan motioned for Jiang Xinglong to step back slightly, he turned his body upside down, let his feet stick out of the hole first, and then cautiously began to climb down.

The moment his hand touched the hanging ladder, Luo Yifan touched the slimy liquid and some things that seemed to be minced meat.

'Is that the man's blood......' he thought silently to himself.

Immediately following Luo Yifan, Jiang Xinglong also turned his body upside down, entered the compartment with his feet facing backwards, and climbed down the suspension ladder.

It was dark and they couldn't see anything clearly, and the two men were afraid that the bomb above would explode at any time and affect the ladder they were on, so they sped up and climbed down.

However, fortunately, the suspension ladder was not very long, and Luo Yifan's feet quickly touched the ground.

He stood firm, and as soon as he turned around, his shoulder touched something like a plank. Luo Yifan reflexively touched his hands to the sides, and found that he was now in a very narrow space.

Groping in the darkness and moving forward a little, Luo Yifan felt that this place was like a long corridor.

At this time, Jiang Xinglong had also gone down the hanging ladder and was standing behind Luo Yifan.

Jiang Xinglong opened his mouth and said, "Where is this?" Why is it so narrow? ”

"I don't know, let's walk forward." Luo Yifan replied.

So the two men fumbled the wall and moved forward cautiously.

After about five or six steps, Luo Yifan's forehead suddenly touched the wooden wall in front of him.

He hurriedly said, "Stop first, the front is blocked." He motioned to Jiang Xinglong behind him to stop.

Feeling that Jiang Xinglong stopped, Luo Yifan began to push the wooden wall in front of him hard in the dark.

Luckily, it was pushed open at the first time, and it should have been a trap door.

After opening it, the plank fell outward, and the light suddenly shot in, stinging Luo Yifan's eyes.

He paused for a few seconds, squinting to adjust to the light. At this time, Jiang Xinglong behind him should be doing the same thing.

After their eyes were fully adjusted, the two of them walked outside and found themselves standing in front of the door between the study and the bedroom on the first floor.

As mentioned in the previous article, there are two doors to enter the bedroom on the first floor, one is the main entrance of the bedroom located in a straight line between the outer corridor and the study door, which is the door that everyone entered at the beginning to see the condition of the rope bridge.

The other was the side door in the study, which had not yet been entered by visitors, and now that the door was open, Luo Yifan and Jiang Xinglong were standing by the door on the side of the bedroom.

Knowing where they were, the two of them walked to the middle of the bedroom on the first floor.

Sunlight shines through the large closed windows and glass doors of the balcony, making the whole room very bright.

As far as the eye can see, the flowers are blooming, the green grass is growing, and all kinds of birds and flying insects are dancing in the mountains and forests, and the gloomy atmosphere of last night has long been gone.

If it weren't for the sturdy anti-theft net, Luo Yifan and Jiang Xinglong would almost mistakenly think that freedom was just around the corner.

But now the mentality of the two men is not what it was last night, even if there is no anti-theft net, they will not leave.

Because they are sure that the murderer must still be in this house, and the murderer is their only target now.

"Do you remember what Xiao Yi said?" Luo Yifan walked to the bedside table, looked at the vase on it and asked.

The first-floor bedroom is a little smaller than the two upstairs rooms and is located at the south end of the first-floor hallway, diagonally opposite the stairwell, next to the study.

The bedroom floor is covered with a parquet floor in a natural color, and there is no carpet on it. A large double bed has a headboard against the south wall window, and a semicircular bedside table sits to the left and right of the queen-size bed.

The double bed is covered with 'Birds and Flowers' patterned sheets with a light emerald green background. There were no quilts or pillows on the bed, and the whole bed looked empty.

On the bedside table on the left and right is a beautiful large vase, and the flowers inserted in it can be seen at a glance that they are plastic flowers.

And Luo Yifan was standing in front of the bedside table to the left of the double bed at the moment, staring at the vase on it.

"I remember that Li Songwei also chased the person who was suspected to be the owner of the room, Liang Yongxin, into this bedroom, but she found that the owner disappeared immediately after entering this bedroom, and she accidentally touched the vase in front of you when she looked out the window at us." Jiang Xinglong replied.

"Yes, at that time, Xiao Yi said that when she came to work as a maid in Luoque House, Liang Yongxin told her to be especially careful of the two vases in the bedroom on the first floor, they are antiques and very fragile, so be careful not to knock them over. However, after Xiao Yi accidentally bumped into this vase, the vase did not fall or shatter, but only moved a little bit. Luo Yifan turned his head and met Jiang Xinglong's eyes.

He continued: "Xiao Yi also said that immediately after the vase moved, he heard the sound of wooden planks moving under the floor, do you know what's going on? After saying this, Luo Yifan paused, and then added: "Since we know each other, then I hope we can also be honest with each other and not hide it, even if it is for the glimmer of hope that still exists with you." I want to know what you think. ”

Facing Luo Yifan's pupils that could no longer fade into 'red', Jiang Xinglong weighed the pros and cons, and finally made up his mind and said: "I don't know, whether you believe it or not, Liang Yongxin really didn't tell me the secret of this room." ”

"So you touched that vase on the mantelpiece in the living room on the first floor before you went upstairs last night, right? What do you mean you turn it half a circle? Luo Yifan's words were aggressive.

Jiang Xinglong was surprised in his heart, but still did not show a little weak expression, he replied: "Your eyes are so sharp, yes, I have touched that vase, but not to open any secret room, but to cover up the traces." "The movements of Jiang Xinglong mentioned here can be referred to in the 20th paragraph of Chapter 10."

"How?" Luo Yifan asked.

"You know my relationship with that person, and I won't hide it from you, this time I will come to the Bird House is indeed an appointment between me and that person in advance, and we have also made a plan, as for the content of the plan, you should guess it. I meant to keep that person out of the way in the first place, but the plan couldn't keep up with the change. ”

"You may not believe it, but the man changed the agreement on his own initiative, and I didn't complete my plan. Everything got so sudden that I was completely caught off guard. Moreover, we did not blow up the bridge, because we only wanted to blur your vision among the visitors of the Bird's House, and we would not and could not trap you here. ”

Jiang Xinglong's words Luo Yifan felt that they were credible, so he was no longer so aggressive, and continued to ask Jiang Xinglong: "Once I came here, I deliberately quarreled with Bian Benyi and his wife to embarrass Liang Yongxin, right?" But why are you doing this, so that if something happens, won't it draw everyone's attention to you? ”

"Yes, that's what I came up with, because I thought no one knew about my relationship with that person, and I didn't expect so many horrific events to follow. So the plan is to draw everyone's attention to myself first, and arouse your suspicion of me......"

"Then the one who stayed out of the matter will prove your innocence, so you can get away safely, won't you?" Luo Yifan snatched Jiang Xinglong's words and said.

was broken by Luo Yifan's words, Jiang Xinglong did not refute it, and chose to acquiesce.

Luo Yifan continued: "I believe it was an accident and you didn't kill anyone, although you did plan in advance. ”

"I'm wondering now why you're risking moving the vase in your living room when everyone is there? As you say, what exactly do you want to cover up? ”

"It's a message, it's a message that I thought was written by that person, written on the side of the vase with a signature pen, written very small, in the direction of the gate, if it weren't for the sudden illness of Fei Gu who attracted all the attention of Bianmoto Yihe and Buhe, they might have found out, so that I would have nowhere to escape."

"Then why didn't you get the attention of Feigu? Why do you see a message on a vase as soon as you enter the door? Luo Yifan asked.

"It's the code I agreed with that person to write what I want to say on the white edge at the bottom of the vase when there is no way to meet."

"That's why I pay attention to the vase first everywhere I go. At that time......"

Jiang Xinglong's words came to an abrupt halt when he and Luo Yifan heard a slight sound of something moving on the ground coming from the corridor outside.

There were also interspersed sounds that were staccato and moaning, like wheezing.

The two of them quickly leaned over to the door that separated the bedroom from the hallway, hid themselves, and listened carefully.

'Shala-a-Sha-la-a'

It was slow, but it did sound like the sound of human clothes rubbing against the floor, and it was getting closer, closer and closer.

"You stay at the door, I'll go out and have a look, and if you hear me calling for help, come out immediately to help." Luo Yifan said quickly.

"Okay." Jiang Xinglong nodded.

Luo Yifan moved extremely fast, and as soon as Jiang Xinglong's words fell, he quickly twisted the doorknob and pushed the door open a little half.

Before leaning out sideways, Luo Yifan didn't forget to look up at the door frame first, he was afraid that the murderer would have another black hand.

Quickly determined that there was no danger, Luo Yifan turned to one side, and his upper body leaned out of the door.

The hallway was as bright as the room, and Luo Yifan looked intently in the direction where the voice came from......

―――

At this time, Jiang Xinglong, who was staying behind him, watched Luo Yifan's actions intently, looking nervous, ready to help.

In fact, Jiang Xinglong did not deceive Luo Yifan, although he did know something about this Luo Que House, but he didn't know all of it.

Just like the secret room they had just escaped from upstairs and the mechanism in this room that Luo Yifan asked him about just now, in a sense, he really didn't know anything.

And he also had a question: why did Liang Yongxin specifically mention to Li Songwei that he couldn't touch the vase in the bedroom on the first floor, and for what purpose did Yongxin say this?

Jiang Xinglong was puzzled. In his impression, although Liang Yongxin is the owner of the Bird House, he does not know much more about this house than him.

However, Jiang Xinglong did have something to hide from Luo Yifan, not that he didn't plan to say it, but he felt that the time had not yet come.

Speaking out too early now may be detrimental to the person he wants to save, so Jiang Xinglong hid it for the time being.

Now, Luo Yifan has entered the corridor, and Jiang Xinglong has also moved to the place where the door is open and peeks out.

His attention was all focused on Luo Yifan's body, and he didn't notice that somewhere behind him was gradually being opened.

A person they knew was stepping into the room, and then approaching Jiang Xinglong step by step.

The figure was staggering, and its feet could almost be said to be dragging not on the ground, but on the ground.

Slowly, his body shook more and more, and he began to stretch out his hands, leaning forward......

Jiang Xinglong's attention was highly concentrated, and he didn't hear a slight sound behind him at all.

He watched Luo Yifan's actions outside the door, and he could see clearly what was moving in the hallway.

I gasped in my heart, and I was hesitating whether to go out to help or stay here, and suddenly-

A pair of hands slammed him back, and the force was so great that Jiang Xinglong's whole person flew backwards.

Jiang Xinglong realized that it was not good! But it was too late, the whole person was dragged far away in an instant, and his back hit the hard wooden frame-like thing fiercely, and the pain immediately spread all over his body.

'No, you can't just die for nothing, you must let Luo Yifan know! ’

At the last moment when his body was dragged out of a certain place, Jiang Xinglong used all his strength to shout three words out of the door:

Luo Yifan!! ――”
