Chapter 44 Emergency Meetings
Seeing that the snow was being dug up layer by layer, and the sound of digging snow was getting closer and closer, my heart had already risen to my throat, I really didn't know what ability Yan Qiu was hiding? Maybe I'll be taken down before I can resist these two times.
From the thin walls of the snow cave, you could see that there was light on her side, and I didn't expect her to hide quite deeply, and we didn't notice her carrying a flashlight when we redistributed our luggage at Uncle Galu's house before.
However, judging from her flashlight, I don't necessarily lose yet, which is obviously inexperienced in this regard. As soon as her flashlight was turned on, I was in the dark, she was in the light, and in the process of digging, her flashlight shone on the snow, and the reflection had already made her eyes adapt to the brightness. In this way, the first time I will definitely take advantage of her and suffer, I must seize this opportunity.
When I finally dug through, I could already see her spade, and I stood as straight as I could, staring at the last layer of snow, and raised my jug high, which I had to make her incapable of resisting.
At the moment of digging, I was full of confidence, but something unexpected happened, the flashlight on the other side did not hesitate, the flashlight directly hit my face, my eyes were flickered by the light, I couldn't see anything, and I couldn't close my eyes involuntarily.
The moment I closed my eyes, my heart was completely cold, and I didn't expect to hide on the edge of the cave and face the dug passage after all calculations, wasn't it asking for trouble?
I can't care about it so much, I shouted in my mouth, the kettle in my hand is just a mess, I hope I can succeed in the chaos, at least I can delay the other party's attack on me, first ensure that I am not fatal, and then find a way to fight.
But I closed my eyes and wandered my arms for a long time, and they all hit the air, and they didn't hit anyone at all. I didn't stop in my hands, of course, I shouted louder in my mouth, in order to shock the other party, but also to cheer myself up. His eyes slowly opened, trying to adjust to the bright flashlight.
When I squinted my eyes and looked carefully at the passage dug by Yan Qiu, what I saw was actually the fat brother, who was lying at the entrance of the cave, looking at me with a smile.
I thought I was too nervous and saw a hallucination, but when I looked closely, it was really the fat brother, and behind the fat brother, it was Su Rina who was holding the flashlight.
The fat brother smiled and asked, "What are you crazy about smoking?" Did you get bored in a small black hole and pee your pants scared? ”
My brain was in a mess now, I didn't understand what was going on, I felt like I had just woken up, and I was overly sluggish.
Then I heard Yan Qiu's voice say, "What are you still standing there doing?" Come here. ”
As soon as she spoke, my mind drifted back to my brain, and I was dizzy, but now I came to my senses.
People didn't come to calculate me at all, but several people had already gathered together and came to me to return to the team, what kind of mess was in my mind just now? This claustrophobic space is really easy to think cranky, and those terrifying thoughts just now turned out to be scaring myself.
Of course, I know that the main source of these thoughts is that I don't trust Yanqiu enough.
I pretended to be calm and said to them, "It's so boring here, I can't sleep and I'm square dancing, why don't you sleep?" As I spoke, I slipped into their side.
Looking up, Jiang Li was also there, and looking further, a few of them dug all the snow holes, until I did, and then there was a single horn left, and the snow caves that were originally one per person were connected into a long tunnel like a string of sugar gourds.
It's a great idea, you can't say anything in front of a single horn during the day, and at night everyone takes the opportunity to get together and dig the hole through it.
Overjoyed, I asked, "Who came up with this idea?" ”
The fat brother looked at me and said proudly, "Who else can there be?" Your brother and I, wait until tomorrow morning, the daylilies will be cold. ”
Originally, I wanted to praise him, but when I saw that he was so proud, and that he almost scared me half to death, I swallowed back the compliment, and just pretended to be impatient and asked, "What are you looking for me?" ”
Su Rina expressed her dissatisfaction with me on the side, and said with a tough attitude: "What are you talking about? I'm looking for you for a meeting. Didn't you say that there was a problem with the unicorn during the day, and that the unicorn was evil, so hurry up and say what's going on? ”
I don't have time to talk about it anymore, this is the best chance, I need to get down to business. I briefly organized the language and said, "After we escaped, Jiang Li left the bag inside, and I went back again." ”
Yan Qiu's eyes widened, and he scolded: "You don't want to die? Went back again? ”
I frowned and said to Yan Qiu, "Don't interrupt me. ”
Everyone saw that I was serious, and they all held back their complaints.
I continued: "There was indeed an explosion inside, but the scene was inconsistent with the description of the unicorn. ”
Jiang Li asked, "Why is it inconsistent?" ”
I continued: "I saw a mercenary man, dead. ”
The fat brother said: "It's nothing, the explosion killed you, and the unicorn may not be able to see clearly, he only said at the time that he might not have hurt anyone."
I shook my head and continued, "That's not what I'm talking about, the man wasn't killed by the explosion, he seems to have died of poisoning. ”
Yan Qiu asked, "How can you see it?" ”
I said, "The man's death was definitely not killed by the explosion, there were no injuries on his body, and all the parts were complete, but he was foaming at the mouth and there seemed to be green foam, so he was probably poisoned." ”
Jiang Li said: "Do you really see green foam? ”
I nodded.
The fat brother said: "That's poisoning, that's scared to death, and the green is bile, and the gall is scared." ”
Others seem to agree with Fat Brother's statement.
If that person was scared to death, then something very terrible must have happened down there, could it be related to that corpse, I wondered in my heart.
At this time, the fat brother asked again: "Whether it is scared to death or not, what does it have to do with a single horn?" The one-horned scared to death? ”
I continued, "I'm not done yet, but guess what else I saw?" ”
Yan Qiu patted me and said anxiously, "Don't you sell it, okay?" Hurry up and say. ”
I nodded, and then I told me about the body I had seen unicorn, and all the features of that corpse.
When I finished speaking, everyone had no intention of bothering me anymore, and the meeting simply couldn't go on, and they were all speechless, staring at me, as if they didn't believe what I said was the truth.
I replied to them with a firm look, and they began to ponder again, and seemed to be like me, unable to think of a reason.
The fat brother said: "That means that one of the two unicorns, one dead and one alive, must be fake." ”
It was the same I had thought, and I nodded vigorously.
The fat brother asked, "Then after you came back, did you find anything wrong with the unicorn?" ”
I replied, "I made a special observation, and there is nothing wrong with it, the same as before, and you think, the pretended unicorn will beat the rabbit with a wooden stick?" At this point, I suddenly remembered about the scarf, and I continued, "By the way, there is a little problem. ”
Jiang Li asked: "Say it quickly, what's the problem?" ”
I said, "He carried the one-horned scarf in his pocket, but when I asked him to lend it to the fat brother, he said that he lost it, which is a suspicious point." ”
After another period of silence, Su Rina said thoughtfully: "Then now we can only find evidence, tomorrow I will find a way to see his scarf, maybe there is some secret hidden in it." ”
Now it was my turn to be proud, and I took out the one-horned scarf from my pocket, shook it in front of everyone, and said, "Don't wait for tomorrow, I'm already here when he hunts rabbits." ”
Yan Qiu was completely anxious, snatched the scarf and said, "You said you were delaying things, right?" How can you gasp for breath when you speak? As he spoke, he unfolded a unicorn scarf on his leg.
Originally, I was waiting for the words of praise, but I didn't expect it to be exchanged for complaints, and it was a burst of discouragement.
When Yanqiu unfolded the scarf and Su Rina's flashlight shone on it, we didn't see any obvious problems.
After we stared at it for a while, Jiang Li found a clue, she pointed to the scarf near the middle and said, "Look, there seems to be blood marks here." ”
We followed her fingers and looked closely at the scarf, which did have blood marks, and it was not big, it was round, and it looked as if the scarf had been wrapped in a glass ball stained with blood before, so it left such traces.
I risked my life to get my hands on something, but I didn't expect that there would be only such an inconspicuous clue, and with this round blood mark alone, I thought that if I wanted to solve the case, I would have to call Sherlock Holmes.
Everyone couldn't think of a result for a while, but they knew that this must be very important, otherwise the unicorn would not be lent to the fat brother, and it was useless to even get dirty, so they just lost it.
Just when everyone was at a loss and couldn't guess how ugly we were, a voice suddenly came from outside our cave, it was not the sound of the wind, as if someone was digging into our hiding place.
