Chapter 20: Crazy Cleaner

Wei Nanyi, who had learned from the past, didn't use Gu Qi's reminder, so she immediately let go of his hand and hid to the side, and the dinner knife grazed the tip of her nose and flew off a few strands of hair.

"Do you think I'm going to do the same trick a second time?"

Wei Nanyu looked at the waiter mockingly after dodging, and the waiter's gaze stayed on the knife for a moment, and then quietly disappeared into the crowd.

And the surrounding guests were still chatting as if they hadn't seen this scene, as if Gu Qi and the others were not in the same time and space at all.

After Gu Qi picked up the dinner knife, he found that something was wrong: "There is something wrong with this dinner knife, do you want to take a look?" ”

"What's wrong with a table knife?"

Wei Nanyi's face changed immediately after taking the letter suspiciously, she grabbed a dinner knife from the dining table casually, and it turned out that she really found a difference.

"The one the waiter flew over seems to be surprisingly light, and it's different from those normal knives."

She pulled Gu Qi to sit in the corner and inspect it carefully, and finally saw an extremely slight gap on the knife body in the light, she picked up the tablecloth and tied the blade and dragged it to both sides, but the knife did not move at all.

"I'll do it!"

After Gu Qi took it, the knife was broken into two from the middle, and a thin note fell from it, and the position of the original knife was actually hollow!

"Utility room? What is the utility room? Wei Nanyu took the note and thought hard, "We just walked all the way and didn't see any utility room at all?" What the hell is this waiter trying to do? Or is this one of the clues? ”

"Don't think too much, it's just the advancement of the task at most, don't be nervous."

Gu Qi thought for a while and then pressed her wrist, "Your emotions have been a little excited from the beginning, and we will go to the appointment after you calm down." ”

Wei Nanyu grabbed his head with some distress.

"I can't calm down, the game is over in less than ten hours now, we have passed so many levels before and still haven't seen the light of day, whether we can save Lin Jia is still unknown.

I'm not as calm and indifferent as you, I want to live. ”

"Everyone wants to live, including me," Gu Qi said slowly, "I'm not as calm as you think, but in this complex situation, I must keep myself in a stable state and not be affected." ”

He looked at Wei Nanyu with a little concern: "I know it's not easy for you to hold on to the pressure until now, but the more this situation is, the more calm we must be, only in this way can we completely escape." ”

Under his comfort, Wei Nanyu gradually withdrew from his collapsed emotions, and Gu Qi's words sounded a little ruthless.

But if you think about it carefully, what he said is exactly what he should keep now.

"I see, I'm sorry, I wasn't in a good mood just now."

After thinking about all this, Wei Nanyu generously apologized, Gu Qi was not a person who cared about this, so he happily accepted her apology: "Let's go!" Go find the utility room. ”

The two of them didn't find a target after turning around the corridor a few times, and it was Gu Qi who casually stopped a waiter to ask for clarity, but none of them expected that the utility room would be such a scene.

A wooden door leaking everywhere, a crumbling signboard.

The surrounding brick walls will keep dropping brick chips downwards when touched.

The room was out of place in the luxurious corridors, as if it had been placed out of thin air.

"This utility room...... It's hard to put into words. Wei Nanyu's eyelids jumped, "I always have a bad premonition." ”

Gu Qi walked in front and pushed open the door without care: "Are there fewer bad things we have encountered so far?" ”

The two pushed the door in, and the wooden door made a tooth-sour sound, Wei Nanyu always suspected that the wooden door would fall, but fortunately, what she was worried about did not happen.

"Why are there so many cardboard boxes? What does it taste like? ”

Wei Nanyu frowned, the smell of rotten cardboard boxes mixed with a faint smell of blood.

Gu Qi also sensed that something was wrong: "Look separately to see if there is anyone." ”

Wei Nanyu walked to the corner of the room and separated the stacked cardboard boxes one by one, most of which were empty.

Only a few of the occasional pieces of paper were yellowed, and they were full of water-soaked and illegible text.

"What kind of mess is this?"

She threw a cardboard box aside with her fingers crossed, and was about to continue when Gu Qi's voice suddenly came from the other end of the room: "I have found something, come here!" ”

Wei Nanyu left the box in her hand and walked towards him, the smell of blood along the way gradually became stronger, and when she came to Gu Qi's side, she found a motionless person lying on the ground.

"He's dead, look at the clothes should be a cleaner."

Gu Qi squatted down and pointed to the wound on his neck, "I was cut directly on my neck by something, and I couldn't lift my head." ”

Wei Nanyu endured the nausea in his abdomen and approached, and found that not only did he have a scar on his neck, but his arm also hung down at an angle that was impossible for ordinary people, and his five fingers turned outward as if he had been broken by someone.

She picked up half a cardboard box and poked it at the cleaner a few times, only to find that there seemed to be something in his breast pocket.

"I've seen him." Wei Nanyu stared at the dead cleaner and suddenly spoke.

"When Qiu Wanna and I left the hall before, we happened to see him pushing a garbage truck towards us, and we also saw him once from a distance when we went out, and he kept his front chest in the pocket of his clothes."

Gu Qi reached out and touched his pocket when he heard this, and sure enough, he found a suspiciously round object inside.

"The pocket is sewn up."

Gu Qi and Wei Nanyu tore open the cleaner's pocket together, and found an old pocket watch inside.

"Does anyone still use something so retro?"

Wei Nanyu looked back and forth with the pocket watch and found no problems, but it was carefully sewn into the pocket, and it would never be so ordinary.

"Let's go first! It's always uncomfortable for me here, so let's find another place to continue researching. ”

Wei Nanyu got up and walked to the door with Gu Qi and stopped, looking back at the cleaner's body with some unbearable.

She walked back briskly and unwrapped a clean cardboard box and covered him: "That's all I can do, rest in peace!" If it weren't for my own insecurity, I would have helped you get justice. ”

"I didn't expect you to be so sentimental? Not like that when he just turned over his clothes. Gu Qi leaned against the wall and teased her.

"No matter how I say it's a living person, it's normal for me to have compassion."

Wei Nanyu got up and threw the pocket watch to Gu Qi, but the cleaner behind her suddenly threw her to the ground with a sudden outburst, and stuck her neck with the hands whose fingers were broken.

Her eyes were pinched, and she almost blurted out the swear words: "I'll go?" Is this cleaner cheating? ”
