Chapter 39: A Pair of Feet
Listening to his reminder, I also reacted suddenly, I really didn't see such a thing along the way. I said in my heart, is the so-called big anchor actually not big, at best it is just a big ornament, put in a certain room? If that's the case, it's hard to find, there are a lot of rooms on this floor, and it takes time to push the doors one by one.
As far as I wanted, Qin Yiheng was already doing this. Seeing this, I also stepped forward to help, and pushed it open room by room.
Luckily, the rooms are small, and when you open the door, you can see them at a glance. I looked at several rooms, but I didn't find much except for the same massage table. At the end of the day, we had inspected all the rooms on the entire floor, and there was no shadow of the anchor. So we went down the stairs, the second floor didn't need to be checked, I had turned around by myself before, and it was enough to look around.
Back on the first floor, we began a carpet search. Because we both have a little suspicion that if the rumors are true, it is very likely that the anchor is buried under the house, and we may be able to find some clues.
To save time, we split up. I went to the women's department and he went to the men's department. Before the operation, Qin Yiheng gave me a searchlight, and he used his mobile phone to illuminate it himself. With such a bright light, I was naturally not afraid, so I walked into the women's department and began to look around.
Although I came in once before, but because there was no lighting equipment, I didn't look carefully, and this time I was finally able to see what the women's bathroom looked like, but unfortunately it was empty. The women's locker room should be the same as the men's room, with marble tiles. I leaned over to examine it closely, but there was no sign of a chiseling. Helplessly, one person's strength is limited, and he can't move the locker, so he has to go to the bathroom.
The structure of the women's bathroom is not much different from the men's bathroom, except for the lack of a bath. It's good that way, it's easier to see without any obstruction. I still searched around like a dog, but I still didn't find anything. At the end, there was only one room on the other side of the dressing room, which I guess was very small, because I guess it was the place where the showers used to entertain guests, and it was nothing more than a few chairs.
I walked over and shone it with a searchlight. There is no door in this room, and it is estimated that it is also for the convenience of listening to the guests call for a bath, but a white curtain is hung, which is already very dirty. I opened the curtain and walked in, and I could see scattered dust under the pillar of light.
The house was as small as I expected, and there was really nothing to check. I was about to turn around and go out to meet Qin Yiheng, when I suddenly froze. Although I knew that I was in the light and could not hide myself even if I didn't move, I instinctively held my breath. Because under the curtain of the door, I was surprised to find a pair of feet, and it seemed that a person was standing motionless outside the curtain.
At first, I thought it was Qin Yiheng playing a prank on me, but after taking a closer look, my heart was cold, because these feet were not wearing shoes.
My searchlight was slanting down at this time, just in time to see the ground, and I saw that there seemed to be some traces of water on the sides of these feet, and it seemed as if the frame had just come out of the water.
My scalp immediately tingled, and I managed to get myself on my feet after a bit of control.
I am separated from this person by a curtain, but it is absolutely impossible for a normal person to be so motionless.
Besides, I thought of Qin Yiheng's previous use of the pool to lure the filth out, if I look at it this way, this thing must be a dirty thing, otherwise why would it be wet?
After a while, I couldn't hold my breath anymore, and I gasped cautiously, but the other party didn't react.
I gently let go of my breath and wondered what to do. I'm worried, if I take a step, the other party will immediately pounce, but if I want to call Qin Yiheng, I'm afraid it will be the same result. After thinking about it for a while, I felt that I might as well strike first, calculated the distance, and kicked it over.
If the other party is filthy, I will take the opportunity to rush out, and if it is a crazy homeless man, I can solve the problem with this kick. However, before I could do it, I dismissed this idea. Because at this time, I saw that behind those feet, there was a silent extra pair of feet.
The confidence I had built up was shattered in an instant.
It's easy to kick one, it's too difficult to kick two, and it's easy to lose your center of gravity and fall down.
Thankfully, all my previous experiences have allowed me to keep thinking in this situation. In just a few seconds, I even thought of many ways to deal with it. Thinking about it, I suddenly reacted to a question, and after confirming it, I found that the other pair of feet should be Qin Yiheng's! I was too nervous just now to recognize that he was still wearing the same pair of New Balance brand jogging shoes.
Now I'm happy in my heart, it's really his prank to work together!
I stepped forward, wanting to open the curtain to see what the hell he was doing, as soon as I moved, I heard Qin Yiheng shout "Jiang Shuo dodge", and then without waiting for me to react, he directly rushed in from the outside.
His action was so sudden, I didn't have time to hide. Suddenly, I saw only a person with his arms strangled by him, and then I was knocked down, and the searchlight was knocked out of my hand, and when I fell to the ground, I heard a "bang", and the light went out! I don't know what kind of defective product he bought. The room instantly became pitch black, and I could feel that Qin Yiheng and that person were struggling to stand up again, and I didn't know if Lu Dao was fighting, anyway, it was not small to hear the movement.
I instinctively waved my arms to protect myself, but I didn't touch anything. When I got up from the floor to help, the room suddenly fell silent.
I yelled "Qin Yiheng", but he didn't respond to me.
I listened carefully for a while, and I couldn't hear where the others were.
I leaned down and found the searchlight in the dark, and found that it had cracked, and it didn't light up at all, and I touched it several times, damn, I don't know where the lighter went, and finally took out the mobile phone in my trouser pocket, and when it was lit, I immediately walked out.
As soon as I left the women's locker room, I heard a "plop" sound, as if something had fallen into the water. Then the sound of the water kept coming, and the listening position should be in the men's bathroom.
I rushed in and took a photo with my mobile phone, and saw that Qin Yiheng was holding on to something in the bath, and the strength of the thing's struggle looked very great, and Qin Yiheng couldn't hold it when he saw it.
I thought to myself, this is the fucking guy just now? Qin Yiheng wanted to drown him?
However, I didn't have time to think about it, so I stepped forward to help. When Qin Yiheng saw it, he shouted instead: "Don't come here, the farther away from me, the better!" ”
Although I was anxious, I retreated all the way to the men's locker room. The mood of waiting outside is more nervous than waiting for his mother to give birth to his own child.
The movement inside has not stopped, and it seems to be getting bigger and bigger!
It took almost ten minutes before I heard Qin Yiheng whispering my name inside.
When I went in, I found that he seemed to be very weak and his face was covered in sweat.
Without waiting for me to ask, he took out a mahogany skewer from his bag and told me to stay by the bath, and if I saw something and wanted to come out, I would immediately tie it with it. After speaking, he lit a cigarette and kept panting, probably because he was tired enough.
I didn't have the energy to explain it to me when I saw him like this, so I just concentrated on holding a peach skewer. He didn't tell me what was going to come up with it, and I was confused.
I guessed it might have been the same person I had just met, but the water in the bath was calm and didn't look like it could hide people.
After seven or eight minutes, he seemed to have eased up, and came over to me and asked me to go to the place where he was sitting.
I took the opportunity to ask him, "What's in the water?" Qin Yiheng turned his back to me and didn't look back, probably because he was worried that he would be taken advantage of by something in the water if he was not careful.
I shone at him with my phone, and I don't know if his shadow was swaying because of the water. However, his answer made my whole body stagger.
Because he only spit out three words: Qin Yiheng.
At this time, I couldn't see Qin Yiheng's expression, but his tone didn't look like he was joking.
I don't know if Lu Dao scared me by his words, anyway, I didn't dare to answer for a while. I wanted to go to the bath pool to take a look, but I didn't dare to move, for fear that I would really see Qin Yiheng floating upright in the bath, then I really didn't know how to deal with it.
The two of them were silent for five minutes before I asked him, "Is that anchor still being found?" ”
