Chapter 198: The Man in the Dark

"What is this place?"

"An abandoned warehouse, I don't know what it's used for. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "The fawn came over.

I took out the key that said E-13-A and carefully compared it with the number on the door, although it was only a number, I looked at it very carefully, for fear that I would be dazzled.

"Where did you get this key?" Fawn asked.

"A security guard, a bunch of keys in the middle, this one is more unique." I explained.

The fawn took the key, looked at it carefully, frowned, and stared at the numbers on it, as if interested in the scythe symbol.

"Did you think of something?" I asked.

The fawn smacked her lips and thought for a moment before she said to me, "Are those keys the room number?" ”

"It should be, it's all in alphanumeric format, only this one is different from the others."

"Oh!" The fawn responded.

I saw that he was a little fascinated, so I didn't bother him anymore, and walked into the room by myself, which was indeed a warehouse as the fawn said, but it had been abandoned for a long time, and there were sundries piled up in the corner, and there were footprints all around, some of which were still very new, which should have been left by the fawn before.

I stepped forward and rummaged through a pile of boxes for a while, but found nothing, the boxes were all empty, and there were no valuable clues at all.

"Little shy, come here!" Behind him came the voice of a fawn.

I turned around and walked to the door, and saw the fawn holding the key, and asked me mysteriously, "Are you sure you took it from the middle of that set of keys?" ”

"yes!" I nodded.

In fact, when he asked me like this, I was really a little unsure, the key was in Wu Kong's hand, and it was not impossible for him to transfer the bag halfway, but there was obviously no reason to do so.

"This key does belong here, yes, but it doesn't seem to be the key on the door, there is no door in this room at all." The fawn's brow furrowed even tighter.

"Could it be the key on some safe?" I guessed.

"It's possible, but I have to figure out what the A is behind it, it's a bit confusing."

"Oh, don't think about it if you don't understand, maybe there used to be a door here that was scrapped because it was in disrepair, so this warehouse was abandoned." I said.

Fawn nodded in agreement and put away the key, but the look in his eyes showed that he was still thinking. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he had found something, and he gently pushed me away and walked straight to the pile of debris.

"What's wrong? Haven't you seen it before? I asked.

"Don't talk yet!" The fawn put her finger to her lips and made a silent motion, "Bring the wind lantern!" ”

I didn't dare to speak, but walked over with the wind lantern very carefully, and the fawn took the wind lantern and shone on the spider web on the side of the box, which was covered with dust, and a gentle stroke was like lifting a mosquito net.

Ever since I encountered the giant spider in the Tomb of the Celestial Maiden, I have been very taboo about spider webs, but when I go out, I will inevitably encounter them from time to time, so I have no choice but to look at them.

The fawn pulled off the cobweb, craned its neck and peered into the side of the box, its eyes flashing, as if it had found something. I followed his gaze and looked in, and I saw a dark area on the ground, which was regular, boxy, and exactly the width of the chest.

"You've touched these boxes?" The fawn asked me.

"It's just open."

"Are you sure you didn't move?"

I shook my head and immediately reacted - it was a drag mark!

"Have these boxes been moved?" I wondered.

The fawn grimaced and whispered, "That's right, the location of the box is not the same as what I saw before!" ”

"Could it be that you are mistaken! How can you see it at such a distance? "I tried to suggest a possibility.

"Do you think I'm going to be wrong?" The fawn cast a rhetorical glance.

I looked at him with a very sure look, which is the confidence unique to Xiaolu, so I chose to believe him, "Then have you been out during this time?" ”

"No, it's full of security guards outside, and there's no way to get out!" Fawn Road.

I suddenly felt creepy, could it be that there is someone else here?!

Suddenly, there was a loud bang at the gate, and the fawn and I were startled, and hurriedly made a vigilant posture, and the atmosphere did not dare to come out.

"We've been discovered?" I asked quietly.

"Shh

Then there was another one, and then I heard footsteps outside the door drifting away until they disappeared, and it seemed that the man was gone.

"Whewβ€”a false alarm!" I sighed, "By the way, are there any other exits here?" If not, it really means that there is still one person hiding here, at least one! ”

"If there was an exit, I would have left a long time ago!" Xiaolu said angrily.

If the fawn's judgment is correct, this box has indeed been moved, after all, the drag mark is not covered with dust, it should have been left recently, that is, there are still people in Area E where the corpse is stored!

"Ho...... Well...... Don't be stunned, help me remove these boxes! The fawn said to me as she wiped her sweat.

"You have so little strength? Who made you usually not eat! ”

Whew――

The box was removed, and there was nothing underneath it, except for a pile of broken copper and scrap of wood scattered around.

I spread my hands, looked at the fawn and said, "So what? ”

The fawn was still very calm, he held his chin and thought about it, "The thing should have been taken away...... I can assure you that there must have been something underneath this before! ”

"You mean- someone hiding here took the contents under the box? Just because you're afraid of being discovered? I guessed.

The fawn didn't answer me, but I could see a little affirmation in his eyes, if this was the case, then this person should not hurt us easily, and he must have some secret in his hands, a secret that we can't let know.

"Since there is no other exit here, let's search little by little, and we will definitely be able to find this person!" I proposed.

"No way!" Xiaolu immediately vetoed, "It's too risky to do this, and we don't have a key, and we can't get into many rooms, even if we do, what if that person sneaks up on us in the middle of the dead?" ”

As soon as I heard it, I thought it made sense, and it was too reckless to go directly to search, "Then what do you say you should do?" ”

The fawn's eyes rolled around, and suddenly he had an idea, and said to me: "Now that the enemy is dark and I am clear, since the other party refuses to show up, then we will give him a salary from the bottom of the kettle!" ”

"Bottom of the kettle? What do you mean? ”

"Come with me!" The fawn snapped his fingers.
