Chapter 41: A Strange Situation
Fortunately, my vision had recovered a little by this time, so I hurriedly lowered my head and followed the light to find my phone, and raised my hand to take a picture of the bath.
The light on my phone wasn't bright, and I didn't have time to turn on the flash in my hurry, so I just used the light from my phone's screen to shine.
I saw that Qin Yiheng was entangled with a person who couldn't see his appearance clearly, in fact, I couldn't see his face clearly, I could only distinguish it from his feelings.
I immediately stood up and tried to help, but there was a lot of water splashing from the pool on the ground, and the soles of my feet were still a little slippery when I stood up. I subconsciously shone the ground with my mobile phone and was stunned.
Because there were two pairs of shoes where Qin Yiheng was standing before, and they were all identical New Balance brand running shoes. Although the light is not strong, the running shoes are very close to me and I can still see clearly.
What's going on? Qin Yiheng knew that he was going to fight in the water, so he took off his shoes in advance? But how can you get an extra pair?
I thought it was strange, but I didn't have time to think about it, and I stepped over and was ready to join the battle.
However, just as I was stunned, one of the two people in the pool suddenly popped out of the pool and rushed out of the door regardless of it. The other did not delay and immediately chased him out.
Both of them moved very fast, and I didn't see clearly whether Qin Yiheng was the one who ran or the one who was chasing.
I didn't dare to hesitate, now that people's lives are at stake, I hurried to chase after them.
Although I tried my best to speed up, I was still a little worried that I would hit the wall, after all, the light on the phone is not very bright, and people are easy to react when running fast, and I am not too familiar with the terrain, so I am still a little slower.
I chased all the way through the men's locker room to the hall, and I didn't see anyone.
Judging by the sounds, the two of them must have gone upstairs, and I ran up the stairs to the upper floor.
Halfway up the floor, just around the corner of the middle of the stairs, I was kicked in the chest before I could take any further steps. The kick was so damn hard that it kicked me down the stairs. I was in such a hurry that I was looking at the ground and didn't even notice anyone in the middle of the stairs!
Frankly speaking, I have lived for so many years, and this is the worst time I have fallen, and it hurt so much that my tears were about to come out, and I don't know where my head hit, and I immediately felt a little dizzy.
I let out an "ahh
The strange thing is that I waited until I stood up and hit back a few times out of thin air, then picked up the phone that had fallen on the ground, and turned it on again, and the other party never appeared again.
At first, I thought that the other party was hiding, waiting for a sudden attack on the dead hand, however, after being vigilant for a long time, there was no movement at all, and the sound upstairs did not know when it disappeared, and the whole house was silent again unconsciously.
The silence felt as if nothing had happened, but the aches in my body reminded me again and again that it was all real.
I was very uneasy and in a dilemma. I am very worried about Qin Yiheng's safety, and it is not a good thing that there is no movement above, because there is only one possibility, that is, one of them has been subdued.
But if I go up rashly, I am afraid that the person who attacked me will be waiting for me to take the bait in the dark.
I hesitated for more than ten seconds, which was a long time for me.
In the end, I decided that I should go up anyway, after all, he had risked his life for me so many times, and I really couldn't repay him except for a little more money, so I definitely couldn't let it go.
After making up my mind, I turned off my phone, and it is not an advantage to have a light source in this situation.
I carefully slowed my steps as little as I could, and re-ascended the stairs, and this time I deliberately chose to walk close to the wall, so that I would not roll down even if I took another kick.
Trembling, I walked to the place where I had been kicked again, and this time it was not anyone's feet waiting for me, but endless darkness.
I continued to walk upstairs and didn't stop at the second floor, because although I couldn't be sure, I analyzed it and it was supposed to be the third floor where they fought. Usually this kind of chase and fight, usually one party runs to the point where there is no way back, and then chooses to fight. So, as long as the person who ran was not caught up, then the place where they encountered must be on the third floor.
Going up to the third floor, I took a deep breath at the top of the stairs. Maybe it's my delusion, but I think the house is getting quieter. The silence made me worry that I might suddenly see someone's body.
My heart was beating faster and faster, and after a few steps, I felt the wall and analyzed, and I was already at the entrance of that long corridor. The next step was going to be quite a challenge for me, because the hallway was so narrow that it was impossible to avoid anyone. So, every step I took, I was mentally prepared to be ready to respond to the attack at any time. However, after following the corridor to the end, there was still nothing to be found.
I also swept the ground with my foot, and there were no people or bodies lying on the ground.
To my surprise, in this case, they were in a certain compartment?
When we searched for the anchor before, we had already opened all the compartment doors, and it stands to reason that if someone was hiding inside, no matter how light my steps were, they would be able to spot someone walking past me in such a quiet situation.
And my heart said, They are all perished? Although this idea is outrageous, there is a probability that it will happen.
Thinking about it like this, I feel that I can't delay, if Qin Yiheng is seriously injured or unconscious, I am one second faster, and he will be safe for one second. So I simply turned on my phone again, lit it up, and began to go back and look room by room. From the room with the iron bed, I saw the entrance to the corridor, but every room was empty!
It's hell, I suspect I made a mistake in my analysis, and these two might be on the second floor. So, I immediately went to the second floor to look. However, it was still empty, no matter what the other black shadow was, anyway, Qin Yiheng, a big living person, disappeared out of thin air!
I was not reconciled and ran straight to the first floor. The women's bathroom was empty, and the men's bathroom, I even had the courage to take a dip in the bath, except for a lot of water, and two pairs of jogging shoes, and I didn't see anything new.
Things got to this point, I simply let go, lit a cigarette, and shouted Qin Yiheng's name a few times, thinking that no matter who came, I would have the courage to fight with him.
But except for the reply, no one answered at all.
I made a call to Qin Yiheng on my mobile phone, but it didn't work at all. I guess it was when he was in the water, his phone was still on him, maybe it was short-circuited in the water.
I smoked several cigarettes on the spot, and my head was full of mush. I knew I couldn't wait like this, but I didn't know what to do if I didn't.
The minutes and seconds passed, and when I looked at the time again, it was almost five o'clock in the morning. Judging by the light and shadow at the bathroom door, it was already dawning outside. I relied on the dawn and carefully checked again, but I still didn't see Qin Yiheng's figure.
Finally, I thought about it for a moment and decided that I couldn't go on like this here, I really couldn't, and I had to call the police. If I really don't have a trick, I can still go to the old man with the hat, after all, this is his house, and maybe I can ask something.
I took the two pairs of shoes on the floor out with me and walked out of the bathing center, and the outside was so bright that my eyes were still a little uncomfortable. I checked myself, and there was a big bag on my head, which was rolled down the stairs and hit it, and on my chest was a large shoe print that was extremely clear, which showed how hard the other party was at that time.
I looked at the shoe prints and seemed to think something was wrong. When I compared it, I was even more surprised. This shoe print on my chest is the shoe print of a New Balance brand jogging shoe, and I have a few pairs of this as well, so I can't be mistaken. I compared it with the shoes left by Qin Yiheng again, and found that not only the style was correct, but the size was the same.
I'm completely confused now, damn, who is the person who kicked me? Is this all the spokesperson for New Balance or what? Why do you wear these shoes?!
