"What's going on? Is the power out? Ye Yu stood on the stairs and didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

"Looks like so." Liang Yunxiao's voice came from the side.

"I'm sorry, it looks like the electrical box tripped." With Zhou Hao's voice, a beam of flashlight shone over. "Yunneng has already gone to repair, it should be fine immediately."

Ye Yu and the others carefully went down to the first floor with the help of a flashlight, and found that except for Qian Yunneng, the rest of the people had already gathered.

"The equipment here is relatively old, and it will trip when there is a thunderstorm, and it has been several times before." Chen Tao explained. "But don't worry, every time you can do it, you can do it quickly, just wait a while."

Sure enough, as Chen Tao said, all the lights turned on after a while, and after less than 2 seconds, with a thunderclap, the lights in the room went out again.

"What's the situation? Why is the power cut again? You Yong looked confused.

"It's probably still being processed, so let's wait." Zhou Hao didn't seem to know what was going on.

Outside the window, lightning and thunder roared, and everyone could only wait silently in the flashlight. However, twenty minutes passed, and the circuit still showed no signs of repair, and the group became increasingly agitated while waiting.

"Why don't I go and Chen Tao to take a look." Zhou Hao obviously couldn't wait.

"I think something is wrong." Liang Yunxiao had a rare serious look on his face. "I'll go with you."

"I'll go too." Somehow, Ye Yu suddenly remembered the "evil spirit" mentioned by Liang Yunxiao before, and decided to go together.

"You...... Don't leave us two...... I...... I'm afraid ......," Xu Yanwei hurriedly said.

"It's just that...... It's rumored to be haunted here! We're going to be with the big army too! You Yong echoed again and again.

"Then come along, don't mess around anymore." Zhou Hao spit out a sentence impatiently, turned around and walked towards the kitchen on the left side of the hall on the first floor.

The electrical box was installed in a compartment at the bottom of the kitchen, and as soon as everyone opened the kitchen door, they were greeted by a strange smell of burning.

"Hmm, what kind of smell is this......" Chen Tao couldn't help but cover his nose.

Zhou Hao frowned, and the flashlight swept to the bottom of the kitchen, only to see that the door of the compartment was closed, and the source of the burnt smell seemed to be there.

"Yunneng? Are you there? Zhou Hao tried to shout.

No response.

"Qian Yunneng?" Zhou Hao shouted, vaguely saw a faint flash of light at the bottom of the compartment door, and was about to step forward to check, but was stopped by Liang Yunxiao.

"Don't go over!" Liang Yunxiao frowned. "There's a problem over there, I'm afraid something happened."

As he spoke, Liang Yunxiao looked around, picked up a long wooden strip on the ground, and carefully pushed the door of the compartment with a wooden strip outside the compartment.

The door didn't move, as if something heavy was behind it.

"The door is unlocked, but something inside is pressing against the door, you can help me push it open, but don't go too close!" Liang Yunxiao shouted.

"Do you mean ......!? Oops! Ye Yu realized something instantly, and hurriedly picked up a building material and wooden strip, and tried to push the door with Liang Yunxiao.

"Hurry up and help!" Liang Yunxiao turned his head to look at Zhou Hao and the others, who reacted and hurriedly came up to help.

In the scramble, the door of the cubicle was finally pushed open, and as the door opened, a humanoid object with a scorching smell poured out of the cubicle on its back and fell in front of everyone with a "bang".

"Money...... Qian Yunneng! Zhou Hao's eyes widened, looking at the charred black human body on the ground and shouted. Those facial features, those clothes, are undoubtedly Qian Yunneng himself!

"Yunneng what's wrong with you!?" Zhou Hao stepped forward to check, but was pulled by Liang Yunxiao.

"You don't want to die!? No one is allowed to come near him!! ”

Before the words fell, a burst of thunder exploded on the roof of the building, and suddenly a certain point on the ground in the compartment was the center, and an arc-shaped white light with a radius of about 1 meter flashed in front of everyone's eyes, and then disappeared, and Qian Yunneng's body, which was in the arc light range, seemed to be passed through by electricity, twitched violently for a moment, and then became motionless again.

"He, he, he...... He was electrocuted! Go and save him! The extreme panic made You Yong's voice suddenly rise an octave, and the tone was gone.

"It's a high-voltage arc electric shock! Don't go over! Ye Yu roared, and hurriedly pulled everyone away from the door of the compartment.

"Yes...... But he ......."

"Pull him away from the area with a strip of dry wood, quick!" Ye Yu said as he picked up the wooden stick at hand, hooked Qian Yunneng's arm, and pushed it out, and the rest of the people also took action to help rescue.

waited for everyone to drag Qian Yunneng to their side, but found that there was no need to rescue him.

Qian Yunneng's eyes were slightly open, his pupils spread to the edge, and his scorched limbs exuded a burst of fleshy smell, looking miserable, obviously powerless.

"Yes! Yes! How could this be......" Zhou Hao knelt beside Qian Yunneng's corpse, his fists clenched.

"Why does a high-voltage arc shock occur...... It's strange that there is no high-voltage substation box here. Ye Yu looked at the direction of the compartment and muttered to himself.

"High-voltage arc electrocution...... What is that? You Yong looked at Qian Yunneng's corpse and asked tremblingly.

"High-voltage arc electric shock refers to the electric shock caused by arc discharge caused by a person approaching a high-voltage line. The higher the voltage, the greater the danger to people. Ye Yu explained. In layman's terms, it is because of the existence of high voltage that ionizes the surrounding air, turning the air that can be considered insulated into a conductor, and if a person is close, he may be electrocuted; Because when high voltage breaks through the air, it forms an arc of light similar to an electric arc, so it is also called high-voltage arc electric shock. ”

"You're not mistaken, are you? This is a civilian residence, where is the high-voltage line? Chen Tao questioned.

"Of course, there are no ordinary residential houses, but this house has been manipulated, so that there is a natural high-voltage wire in the house." Liang Yunxiao focused on a certain area in the cubicle with a flashlight, "'On a stormy night'...... Hehe, I see, it seems that thunderstorms are a necessary condition. ”

Following the light focused by the flashlight, Ye Yu carefully observed the area that Liang Yunxiao was pointing to.

I saw that the vicinity of the electric gate was already charred black, and not far from the electric switch, a copper wire the thickness of a little finger reflected a pale golden luster under the illumination of the flashlight. The copper wire ran abruptly down from the top of the corner of the compartment at one end, and a piece of copper fell to the ground tied to the other end, and that position was the center point around the arc of white light. Since the whole line is arranged very hidden, it is impossible to find it without looking closely.

"This ...... This is!? Before Ye Yu could speak, suddenly another thunder sounded, and the copper wire was instantly wound with a trace of electric light, centered on the contact point of the copper wire on the ground, and the arc-shaped white light lit up again, and then, just like just now, disappeared in an instant.

"This is the copper wire that links the lightning rods! Isn't it supposed to be buried in the ground? How could it be here!? Ye Yu was dumbfounded.

"Hmph, it seems that this is not an accident, but a murder specially planned by someone." Liang Yunxiao turned to look at the other people, "And the planner is undoubtedly familiar with the structure of this house, and he also has the conditions to transform it, I'm afraid ...... This man is in your construction team. ”

"What did you say?" Zhou Hao stood up, his eyes red. "Are you saying that someone in our team deliberately set up a game to kill Yun Neng?!"

"That's right, although I can't confirm if this person is among you or the other construction team members who were not there, but judging from the scene, this is undoubtedly murder."

"What is the basis for that? How the hell did he die? Chen Tao asked.

"Do you know how a lightning rod works?" Ye Yu said. "The lightning rod mainly guides the lightning to discharge to the lightning rod, and then introduces the lightning current to the ground through the grounding wire and the grounding device, so that the protected object is protected from lightning strikes. But if the grounding is not done well, it will become a 'lightning rod', bringing lightning indoors! “

Zhou Hao and the others were stunned for a moment.

"That copper wire in the compartment...... If I guessed correctly, it was the grounding wire of the lightning rod, but the copper wire that was supposed to be buried in the ground to link the grounding device was artificially cut out and connected here, so that as long as the lightning was drawn down, the copper wire instantly became a high-voltage wire, and as long as people were nearby, it would cause a high-voltage arc electric shock. ”

"In this way, there will be a chance to find the grounding wire of the lightning rod and secretly connect it here...... Sure enough, it could only be someone from our team......" Chen Tao said softly.

"But, if that's what you say, wouldn't anyone over there be electrocuted?" You Yong asked anxiously.

"That's right." Liang Yunxiao looked at Zhou Hao meaningfully, "'Burning Ru's muscles'...... Hehe, Zheng Qiu's prophecy has really come true. ”

Zhou Hao's face changed suddenly, and his eyes suddenly fell on Chen Tao, who also seemed to have an elusive expression.

"In other words, the other party is not targeting Qian Yunneng, but killing people indiscriminately!?" You Yong said in horror. "But there is a certain probability of committing murder through the murderous methods you just mentioned, and thunder and lightning do not occur every day."

"Of course the other party has made a few attempts, didn't you say that every time the power switch will jump during a thunderstorm, Qian Yunneng will come here to check? Xiayang City is very dense with thunderstorms in this season, and the probability of you being hit is actually very high. Liang Yunxiao explained.

The crowd fell silent. There is no doubt that everyone realized that the "death notice" was not a prank, Jiang Xin, Li Yuchen...... and Qian Yunneng, all of them have fulfilled the above statements, and the next few disasters that are predicted may also befall them soon.

"Anyway, now that someone has died, let's call the police." Zhou Hao sighed, took out his mobile phone and prepared to dial, but found that the mobile phone had no signal at all.

"Huh? What's the matter, do you have a signal on your phone? Zhou Hao looked up and asked a few others.

However, the strange thing is that after everyone took out their mobile phones, they all found that their mobile phones were displayed as "no signal".

"Is it affected by a typhoon?" Chen Tao asked.

"I'm afraid there's another possibility...... Someone deliberately didn't let us contact the outside world. Ye Yu suddenly had an ominous premonition.

"That...... Let me interrupt, did you see Xu Yanwei just now? You Yong glanced around, his voice trembling a little.

"He's gone!"
