Chapter 315: Screening the Attic
"Could it be that this person can fly directly?"
Xie Chen didn't open his mouth, but thought in his heart.
There are no trails here, so is there any hidden mechanism besides the main entrance?
But I didn't hear any movement of this place being opened.
Standing so close to the door, the feeling of disappearing out of thin air is outrageous.
Xie Chen pursed his lips, remembering that just now one of them was walking and pulling away the foam box with "river shrimp" written on it.
Now I walked back and forth near this side, and I didn't find any trace of the box, that is, the four of them should have walked away with the box.
But if you have such a suitcase, it will be a little more difficult to go up to this attic, and if you have to walk through a path or something, or if there is some mechanism in the dark, it will not be possible to be quiet.
Xie Chen directly pressed the pocket watch.
In this unknown situation, it is naturally impossible for me to climb the ladder openly, and it is undoubtedly the best choice to use the ability of the pocket watch to let myself get such conditions.
As the pocket watch was pressed by himself, he also looked at a clock hanging next to the coffee table.
This thing is also the only item that you can check if the sea surface is in effect.
Fortunately, by the time I looked over, the thing had indeed stopped turning.
I don't know how to breathe a sigh of relief, but fortunately, the pocket watch didn't go wrong at this time, which is good news.
Xie Chen reached out and pulled the ladder in front of him, and pulled it aside again.
Then he put the pocket watch in his pocket and immediately pulled out the knife he had just taken from the doorknob.
Xie Chen licked his lips and glanced up at the entrance in the attic, which was almost large enough for a person to enter.
Hold the knife in your left hand and climb up slowly with your more powerful right hand.
In fact, it is not high, after all, it is an attic built on the basis of the first floor, and if it is not for the goods placed here, it will look particularly low.
Because this part has an attic, I can already touch the upper part just by lifting my hand slightly.
Even his own hands are not fully extended.
Xie Chen kicked his right leg a little uncomfortably, if it wasn't for the space being too narrow, he wouldn't have just climbed two steps and his joints were so sore.
Because the space is too narrow, all the weight of the body is basically pressed on the joints of the legs, which is not just the weight of the knees.
And because the top of the attic has to enter first, you have to pay attention to the angle at the bottom and bend your feet.
Basically, the weight of my whole body is pressed on these two legs.
"It's a fucking effort to climb this broken ladder once......"
Xie Chen gritted his teeth and complained, but he still had to continue to endure and flip up.
Fortunately, this distance is not long.
Soon, half of his body was already in the attic.
The original strong smell had completely disappeared at this time, and the smell of wood wafted in this dark attic.
It is an old sandalwood incense, and it is very pleasant just to smell it.
However, because it is too dim on it, even if I crawl in, I can't see the situation inside clearly for the time being.
"Why is there so much space in here?"
Xie Chen said in a daze.
The space here is not the same as I imagined at all, originally there was only a little range below, but now when I come in, there is such a large space.
But although the space was larger than expected, there were no goods stacked here, and there were not as many wooden boxes as on the first floor.
"It's weird......"
Xie Chen held the sharper knife in his hand and slowly approached the front, although the light was particularly dim, but a little light reflected from the wooden board below could still make the blade look particularly shiny.
Xie Chen mustered up his courage and walked forward slowly, and followed to the middle part.
Although the front part of the attic was large enough, it didn't actually put anything, and because of the darkness, I was very careful to walk by myself, and I didn't dare to go too fast.
Even when each step falls, it seems to be particularly cautious.
Xie Chen walked slowly, but he didn't find any figures, although the space in the attic was large enough, but in fact, it was just a little.
It's not as big as an entire floor, and if you don't store anything, you can't hide people at all.
Although it is dark, it is only because of the comparison with the bottom.
There are many gaps in the middle of the wooden planks that are patched together, and a lot of light can be transmitted through, and when the eyes slowly adjust to the light and darkness here, they can actually see the general situation clearly.
In this kind of situation, you can't hide from people at all, and it's useless to just look at it like this.
"Since they weren't hiding in the attic, where did all the four go?"
Xie Chen said helplessly, but followed by his echo back and forth, this attic looked very strange.
There's nothing here, but it's all the more anomalous.
If an attic exists but is not used to store anything, it is better to pile all the goods downstairs than to bring up those boxes and put them in the attic.
Even though the boxes themselves were very large, they couldn't fit in the attic.
Maybe the goods weren't intended to be stored in the attic at the beginning of the delivery.
But it's also very strange, if you didn't plan to put these things in the attic in the first place, then what's the point of building this attic?
It can't be for the sake of looking good, right?
That's pure stupidity.
Reducing the original height and space of the first floor for the existence of an attic is an operation that a normal person can't figure out.
This also proves that there is definitely a bomb here, but it's a pity that I haven't figured out what's wrong for the time being?
Xie Chen continued to grope forward, not even walking in the middle, but following the surroundings of this attic, gently touching the wooden plank next to it with his hand.
Just rush forward little by little.
Although I can see a little more clearly with my eyes now, I can only see the general situation, and many details of the interior of the attic will be omitted.
If you really want to see the details, you have to get very close.
Although this is very efficient and slow, there is no way to do it.
I'm afraid that there is a secret door or switch in this attic, if you just take a general look, it is really possible to be directly negligent.
