Chapter 1165 Old Movie

After walking up, the fat man was dumbfounded. Lin Wan'er and others who were supposed to be waiting here were all gone.

"Where are the people?" Xia Qiang also panicked. Among the missing people were not only his companions, but also Xia Meng, the real head of the family.

"We are out." Jiang Cheng looked around and explained: "The body of Teacher Zigui was found below. The road was smooth. We are human, don't worry."

About ten seconds later, finally, a few people came out from an inconspicuous corner.

The leader was naturally Lin Wan'er.

Jiang Cheng was about to say something else, but suddenly saw Lin Wan'er raised a finger and put it between her lips.

And everyone's face was a little strange.

Not only did no one speak, but even these people's footsteps were very light, as if they were worried about disturbing something.

After approaching, Lin Wan'er looked Jiang Cheng up and down for a moment, then lowered her voice, "Where did you find Teacher Zigui's body downstairs?"

"In a small room." Jiang Cheng answered truthfully, looking into Lin Wan'er's eyes, "And this is not a warehouse, it's a prison cell, a private prison, we found traces of people being imprisoned downstairs, and there are quite a few people." Thinking of the scratches, he added.

"What did you find?" Jiang Cheng asked back, it was obvious that Lin Wan'er and the others were so careful, they must have found something.

Moreover, Lin Wan'er and the others didn't have the same number of people, a few people were missing.

"You'll know when you come and see, remember, don't make too much noise." Luo He, who was following Lin Wan'er, whispered, holding a black cover book in his hand, with a serious look on his face.

Not long after, they took many turns and were led behind a door.

Chen Ran and a few others were guarding here.

The door is a double-opening type, very tall and looks quite imposing. There is a gilded handle behind the door, giving people a feeling that it is out of tune with the surrounding environment, as if opening this door will open a whole new world.

More importantly, through this door, there is a faint sound coming from outside.

The sound is rather messy, but it can be heard that there are mechanical sounds, like vehicles passing by, and there are crisp "da da da" sounds, which sound like the sound of mules and horses' hooves. Of course, there are also people shouting, which is very lively.

"What is outside...?" Xia Qiang couldn't help asking curiously.

The door is tightly closed, and it is impossible to see the scene outside through the crack of the door, and he dare not open the door rashly, fearing that it will cause unknown risks.

"It is a commercial street, very prosperous, but it has been a long time since our time." Wan Yuanning answered Xia Qiang's question patiently, "But this street..." She frowned slightly, seemingly not knowing what to say next.

Before Xia Qiang could urge him, Jiang Cheng interrupted him, "How do you know that there is a commercial street outside?"

"There is a window there. Through that small window, you can see outside." Wan Yuanning answered.

Raising his head, following Wan Yuanning's guidance, Jiang Cheng finally found the small window. The window was about the size of two pieces of paper put together, and it was very high, about 2.5 meters, close to 3 meters.

Jiang Cheng turned around and patted the fat man's shoulder. The latter understood, walked under the window, squatted down, and Jiang Cheng stepped on the fat man's shoulder. The latter took a breath and slowly stood up. He grabbed Jiang Cheng's legs with both hands to help him stabilize his body.

It was a prosperous street with merchants on both sides of the street. There were very old-style cars driving on the street, and there were people riding horses. The women in cheongsam on the street were graceful and beautiful, and the men in suits walked hurriedly.

There were also poor people wearing coarse cloth clothes, bent by the shoulder poles on their shoulders.

Facing Jiang Cheng, there is a shop called East Asia Trading Company. The big sign is a woman posing coquettishly.

There are also rickshaws pulling people on the street. The drivers wear dirty cloths around their necks and walk briskly.

The sound of horns, shouts, hawking, quarrels... all kinds of sounds poured into Jiang Cheng's ears at the same time, outlining a picture full of life and fireworks.

But Jiang Cheng was still observing, and slowly, his eyes changed.

Became alert and cold.

He sensed a strange atmosphere.

That's right, everything outside was fake, a show specially performed for them.

Although it seemed vivid, it was just repeated endlessly.

The men, women, and even the beggars squatting on the street in ragged clothes were like machines wound up, repeating the actions set by the program.

Several black cars drove in from the left side of the street, and then drove out from the right side of the street, repeating over and over again. When they drove to a certain fixed position, they would be blocked by the flow of people and honk their horns.

At this time, children carrying flower baskets rushed up, banged on the car doors, and sold flowers to the people in the car.

Jiang Cheng silently calculated the time, and the same scene would be repeated once in about 5 minutes.

It was like an infinitely looping movie outside.

He couldn't help but feel lucky that the leader who stayed up there was Lin Wan'er.

If it were a young man who stayed in such a dull environment for a long time, he would see the traffic outside and would want to open the door immediately, find the people outside, and ask for clues.

But if they really did that, Jiang Cheng was almost certain that they would also be involved in this "old movie" and fall into an endless weird cycle.

If that were the case, it would be troublesome to break free.

Jiang Cheng's eyes accidentally swept across the street, and suddenly, he seemed to catch a familiar figure.

He looked immediately, and it was at the corner of the street, on a bench, with a figure with his back to him.

It was the man reading the newspaper, wearing an old-fashioned suit!

Before Jiang Cheng could take a closer look, a car drove over and blocked Jiang Cheng's sight.

After the car drove past, the man was still sitting on the bench, but this time, Jiang Cheng saw clearly that the man did not hold a newspaper in his hand, he was just sitting there in a daze, and... the color of the suit and the body shape were also different from the man reading the newspaper on the bus.

Did he make a mistake?

Jiang Cheng himself was not sure.

It seemed that something had been changed in the dark, but he just couldn't remember it. This feeling was like a part of his memory was dug out.

He didn't understand whether it was his problem or the ability of the newspaper man.

In short, since he came here, everything was full of weirdness. This place was completely different from the world he had experienced before.

He shook his head gently, trying to clear these messy things from his mind, but when he raised his head again and looked at the bench, the man in the suit had disappeared.

At this moment, a woman was sitting on the chair with her back to him. The woman turned her head 180 degrees and stared at Jiang Cheng, revealing a burnt face.
