Well of Mystery

Shang Douxing was taken into his own Hutian by Jiang Chenglu.In this way, five people and two Hutian worlds formed a three-layer matryoshka doll. Bai Xiuqi felt a little funny, but knew that it was not the time to relax yet.

In order to avoid other people's doubts, the Huayang brothers and sisters came out of Hutian after digging out of the Great Wall. Huayang has obviously been comforted by Huayin, and now he seems to be calm.

Bai Xiuqi briefly explained the progress of the matter, and the four of them returned to the hotel along the original road.The platform full of bougainvilleas was quite lively, and there were many people moving wood up and down, busy.

"Have you heard the broadcast?" Uncle Zong bit his nails at the corner of his mouth, and spoke vaguely: "This typhoon exceeded everyone's expectations. There are no people living near the south pier. We need to reinforce it. When the time comes Some people will move in. It won’t be clean then, don’t mind me!”

In extraordinary times, of course we can't take care of so many.Everyone expressed that there is no problem, and offered to propose that the room is spacious, and if necessary, they can be squeezed to make room for those in need.

"That's not necessary." Uncle Zong shook his head: "Actually, I don't think there will be many people coming here. Going west, there is a large auditorium under the cliff, which is now converted into a gymnasium on the island by Boss Huang. Most of the people went there to seek refuge, food and water were distributed every day, and it was better to take care of them when they got together."

"Boss Huang hasn't found it yet?" Bai Xiuqi asked.

"No, oh..." Uncle Zong sighed: "To put it bluntly, I think I can't find it. Didn't some people say that he was taken away by a sea monster?"

"..."

Bai Xiuqi was about to say something, but Uncle Zong was called away by the people on the other side.Huayang's complexion didn't look good either, so they decided to go upstairs to rest and then figure out how to go next.

When going upstairs, they met Jian Tong.

The man who sneaked out last night didn't know when he would come back.There was no haggard look on his face.He was holding a tray in his hand, on which were two bowls of freshly cooked noodles and a box of cold capsules.

It looks like Luo Weilu is sick.

Bai Xiuqi's eyes touched Jian Tong's, and he felt that the other party nodded slightly towards him.But he didn't respond.

On the contrary, Jiang Chenglu said curiously, "Why are you injured?"

There are several long and narrow red marks on Jian Tong's neck, obviously caused by being strangled.But I was silent for two seconds, but gave a completely different answer.

"Mosquitoes bite and scratch." After finishing speaking, she took the soup noodles and walked to her room.

"I don't like him now." Huayin wrinkled her nose, "He's so weird, what's going on in his head."

"Where will they tell you?" Jiang Chenglu rubbed her head and told her to lead her brother back to the house to rest.He also followed Bai Xiuqi to the door of the room.

As soon as she opened the door, Bai Xiuqi was dumbfounded. Although it was raining, why was the room so dark?

It was Jiang Chenglu who discovered the important point at a glance - the window was nailed.

Although it is a way to prevent typhoon damage, but in this way.Wouldn't the room become a dark, humid and stuffy secret room?

Even without the phobia of secret rooms, staying in such an environment for a long time still makes people feel very uncomfortable. Bai Xiuqi tugged at his collar, and just as he was about to catch his breath, he saw Jiang Chenglu walk over and open the glass sliding door.Then he stretched out his fingers and poked lightly twice.

With a "touch", a long plank fell down.The sea breeze pours in from outside, refreshing.

Bai Xiuqi's expression twisted for a few seconds, and he couldn't help but torn between praise and criticism, but finally he asked, "It's not good to be seen by Uncle Zong?"

"It's okay, can't I push it back with my own hands when the typhoon comes? Come here..."

Jiang Chenglu beckoned Bai Xiuqi to come to him.Then put an arm around his waist.

"Even if it's a storm outside, it's the end of the world, with you by my side, it's heaven."

"..."

Bai Xiuqi was speechless for a moment, and was about to ask Jiang Chenglu what he was doing again, but when he looked at the gray sky in the distance and the sea of ​​dark and raging waves, he suddenly shivered involuntarily.Instead, he took Jiang Chenglu's hand.

He suddenly remembered that he had read an article somewhere, saying that human beings are more likely to develop feelings for each other in harsh natural environments.Perhaps because survival was threatened, the instinct to carry on the family line was activated.

However, the instincts of the two of them seemed to be slightly misdirected.

Bai Xiuqi smiled wryly.Then he saw a small boat floating across the gray sea.

"Well, isn't that Huang Xiangyuan's cruise ship? Why did it come back again?"

Hearing what he said, Jiang Chenglu squinted his eyes for a while, and then confirmed his judgment: "It's that boat, could it be that Huang Xiuqi ran back again?!"

"Then can't we just ask her about Nine Color Flowers? What are you waiting for!"

Bai Xiuqi's eyes lit up, he grabbed Jiang Chenglu's arm and ran out.

----

Due to the abundant precipitation before the typhoon, the tide line around the pier has retreated more than ten meters, almost submerging the entire beach.The water on the shore where the small boat docked covered his calf.

"Thank you."

Huang Xiuqi nodded to the man who jumped off the boat before her, and then stretched out her hands to wrap his arms around his neck from behind.

The man carried her on his back and walked towards the high place on the beach step by step.

When they reached the waterless land, someone from the other side of the cliff ran over quickly, and it was Tang Yilang with two or three workers.

"Xiuqi, there's such a strong typhoon blowing outside, why did you run back again!"

Tang Yilang's expression was astonished, apparently he knew nothing about Huang Xiuqi's return.He was dripping water from his head and was still wearing a blue raincoat, obviously continuing to search.

It's a pity that Huang Xiuqi didn't accept his favor. She said anxiously: "My dad has such a big accident, and the person hasn't been found yet. How could I not come here? Uncle Tang, what's going on? Who actually did this?!"

"...So far, there is no evidence to prove that your father was pushed down."

Tang Yilang sighed, his eyes fell on the man who was accompanying Huang Xiuqi again, and he asked vigilantly, "Who is this?"

"Officer Li." Huang Xiuqi introduced: "I asked him to investigate with me."

"My name is Li Mian." The man called Officer Li nodded slightly towards Tang Yilang.

He looked several years older than Huang Xiuqi.The appearance is not Huang Xiuqi's favorite type.However, there is a kind of light in the slender eyes, this kind of restrained but powerful light, which is usually found in military police or martial arts practitioners.

Tang Yilang also greeted him, and asked again: "Why don't Xiao Wang and Xiao Li come?"

"The two of them were taken away when they returned to the institute yesterday." Li Mian said, "Something may have happened."

Tang Yilang's face changed slightly.Before he could say anything, he heard another rumbling thunder in the distance above his head.

"Well, anyway, it's thanks to the heavy thunderstorm just now that you got to the island safely. Not to mention, the wind will be stronger later, and I don't feel at ease if you stay in the villa with a girl, or Follow us to the auditorium."

"..."

Huang Xiuqi didn't answer right away, but it wasn't hard to see from her expression that she didn't really agree with the proposal.

At this time, Jiang Chenglu and Bai Xiuqi also rushed over from the orange path, bumping into these people before they had prepared themselves mentally.

"Uh, oh? Miss Huang? Why do you..."

"I'm going to stay in a hotel!"

Huang Xiuqi trotted a few steps.Suddenly grabbed Jiang Chenglu's arm and said loudly: "What happened, my boyfriend will protect me!"

Jiang Chenglu, who was hugged by her, was also taken aback, and then turned to look at Bai Xiuqi beside him with an innocent face.

But Bai Xiuqi had already reacted.Tell Tang Yilang: "Uncle Zong's hotel has been reinforced, and there are many people living in it. We will be responsible for protecting Miss Huang's safety."

Now that we've talked about it, Tang Yilang doesn't want to be entangled anymore, he just glances at Jiang Chenglu, then nods to let him go.

Huang Xiuqi introduced Li Mian's identity to Jiang and Bai, and the two greeted each other and started walking towards the hotel.After taking two steps, Huang Xiuqi began to apologize: "I'm sorry. I took you as my boyfriend just now."

"Hehe, it's okay, I have to thank you for your trust."

Jiang Chenglu rubbed his nose and thought that it would not be a disadvantage, but he found that Bai Xiuqi gave him a fair look.

"You don't seem to like Tang Yilang very much." Bai Xiuqi asked, "Can you tell us why."

"He has a son who is a few years younger than me, ugly, and always wants me to marry him." Huang Xiuqi said concisely.Then he looked at Li Mian beside him: "Come on, let's go to the hotel first."

"Wait a minute." Jiang Chenglu reminded them: "Don't you want to go to the scene of the incident first? I'm afraid the water will rise again, and the scene and Sea God Temple will be flooded."

"...There's no need for that." Officer Li shook his head, "After several hours of heavy rain and trampled by a large group of search and rescuers, the crime scene has already been completely destroyed. There are no clues left at all. Don't waste this It's time."

"Crime scene?" Bai Xiuqi grasped the point: "Has it been confirmed that it's a crime?"

"Yes." Huang Xiuqi nodded, "Because someone contacted the outside world through the radio station, saying that my father was killed by someone. The person who killed him put him, put him..."

Having said that, she finally couldn't help choking up and shedding tears.

Li Mian finished the sentence for her: "A witness said that Mr. Huang Xiangyuan had been killed and his body fell into the sea. But this witness insisted on not revealing his name and the identity of the criminal, saying that he was afraid of retaliation. Ms. Huang was worried. The murderer fled under the cover of the typhoon, so please accompany me to the island to find the murderer."

"So that's the case." Bai Xiuqi nodded: "Then how are you going to proceed?"

"I don't have a clue yet," Li Mian said cautiously: "It's better to find out the current situation on the island first."
