Chapter 29 Mystery

Officer Li did not look at Qiao Jiajin, but asked Qi Xia: "I do have something, about Han Yimo... Did you have something to say just now? What does Han Yimo's death mean? That What does the sword mean?"

Qi Xia narrowed her eyes and looked at Officer Li carefully: "Officer, what you are good at is criminal investigation, and what I am good at is fraud. Now you are asking me for advice on the case. Isn't it strange?"

Officer Li lowered his head helplessly and said, "We have already arrived at such a ghost place, how can the "criminal investigation" still be of use? "

Qi Xia was silent for a while after hearing this, and decided to tell him the clues she thought of: "Officer, I can only say... Han Yimo may know that sword."

"Know?" Officer Li frowned, then nodded thoughtfully, "You mean he has seen that sword before?"

"These are not issues you have to consider anymore." Qi Xia said, "You should still care about your own situation."

"What's the meaning?"

Qi Xia sighed and turned to leave, but was held back by Officer Li.

"Don't leave, what exactly is my "situation"? "

Ringo covered his mouth and nose, leaned close to Officer Li's ear, and then whispered: "Mr. Officer, Qi Xia doesn't want to say it, but I can say it for him. There are two things you need to be careful about."

"two?"

"That's right, first of all, the only one who could easily lift the giant sword was the crazy female clerk. She was very strong. In other words, if Han Yimo was really killed, then The female clerk is the biggest suspect. You need to leave this place as soon as possible. "

Officer Li nodded with a heavy face and asked: "What about the second one?"

“The second thing is your ‘teammates’, they don’t seem trustworthy. "

Officer Li's lips moved slightly, as if he thought of something.

Now on his side are Xiao Ran, a kindergarten teacher who is influenced by emotions and does not seem to be very smart, Zhang Chenze, a lawyer who is indifferent to everything and only looks at the pros and cons, and another man who once confronted him. Dr. Zhao is somewhat self-centered.

If the four of them encounter a life-threatening test, can they trust each other?

Officer Li struggled for a long time before finally speaking: "Qi Xia, no matter what, I will use the convenience store as my base and explore several nearby areas. If you have any information... you can also come to me. I exchange."

Qi Xia did not agree or refuse. She glanced at him lightly, turned around and left.

The few remaining people didn't know what to say and followed him.

Officer Li stared at the backs of the four people for a while, and then returned to the convenience store with Dr. Zhao and Xiao Ran.

How could he not know that the four people outside were more trustworthy at critical moments, but they wanted to collect "Tao", in other words, they were looking for death.

It's not safe to follow them either.

Now if you want to survive smoothly, you can only find a base first and then make long-term plans.

…

Qi Xia led a few people forward, and soon they arrived at the square where they arrived yesterday.

He wanted to come here to confirm something.

That's the huge bell heard in the early morning.

It's like yesterday. There is a huge electronic display in the center, and a copper bell hangs above the display.

When Han Yimo was assassinated, the huge bell rang.

Ringo blinked and said, "I seem to have heard the bells ringing several times..."

"How many times?" Qiao Jia asked vigorously, "When?"

Ringo's pupils turned slightly and recalled: "Do you still remember... the man whose head was smashed by the "man-goat" when we first woke up in the room? When he died, a bell seemed to ring. "

Tiantian seemed to understand something: "Could it be that...every time someone dies, a bell will ring?"

Several people nodded, feeling that this guess should be correct. The bronze bell in front of them seemed like a death knell, informing everyone of the number of deaths.

"That's not right." Qi Xia shook his head, "The corridor we went through had at least a thousand rooms. While we were going through the "game", people were dying in every room. If this thing was a death knell, we couldn't possibly Only two bells were heard. "

"This..." Tiantian feels that what Qi Xia said makes sense, but in that case, what are the conditions for the giant bell to ring?

"Huh?" Ringo looked up at the display screen and found that it was empty, "I remember there was a line of words on it yesterday."

Everyone looked up and saw that the words above had indeed disappeared.

"It seems like...an echo or something..." Qiao Jiajin touched his chin and said, "I echoed to invite disaster?"

“I heard the echo of ‘call for disaster’. "Qi Xia said.

"Ah, right..." Qiao Jiajin nodded, "What does that mean?"

Qi Xia shook her head.

This is not something that can be known by "guessing". They know too little about this city.

What is disaster? What's the response? Who is "I"?

"Forget it, let's go somewhere else."

Qi Xia turned around and was about to leave, but was suddenly stunned.

In front of him was a haggard, smiling face.

This face appeared behind him out of nowhere, staring directly at him at the moment.

Qi Xia's pupils moved and she quickly took two steps back.

The remaining three people were also startled. In front of them was a haggard old man. He stood on tiptoes and his body was bent like a dead tree.

"I've thought of it..." The old man smiled slightly, revealing his only remaining tooth, "I've thought of the question you asked me!"

Qi Xia was stared at by the old man, and felt a chill on his back: "Are you talking to me?"

The old man pursed his cracked lips: "Young man, I know the answer! It's "betting your life"! As long as you bet your life, everything will be easy!"

He stretched out his hand with dirty nails and was about to grab Qi Xia.

"We are so close to getting out! As long as you are willing to bet your life..."

Qi Xia frowned and took a few steps back. Although he didn't understand what the old man was saying, it was too weird that he kept saying he wanted his life.

"Hey! Old man, who are you?" Qiao Jiajin asked suspiciously, "Have you seen Qi Xia before?"

The old man's expression moved, and he turned his head to look at Qiao Jiajin.

He opened his mouth with a complicated expression, and then asked: "Don't you know me?"

"Why should I know you? "

The atmosphere was silent for a while, the old man's cloudy eyes kept flashing, and after a long time he finally thought of something: "So that's it...you...have seen "Tianlong"..."

"Tianlong?" The four people looked at each other.

"There is no hope..." The old man shook his head and slowly turned his back, "We can't beat him...We are lost here forever...No wonder "Zodiac" came back again..."

He walked away while muttering, and his back looked very lonely.
