Chapter 240 Discovering the Secret Room
At this moment, Cao Bin and the others lost their composure and rushed over shouting for help.
Cao Bin slid over on his knees and caught a small vase that looked more valuable than all his assets.
Lin Wenjue also took the two ornaments and let out a long sigh: "My God, I can't afford to pay for these things..."
Curly stood up tremblingly, holding a piece of jade in excellent condition in his hand: "Brothers... it's... it's not broken, right?"
"My life is saved..."
Cao Bin slumped on the ground: "I'm talking to you, it's the boss who's getting divorced, not you, how can you be so excited..."
"Isn't it because of you that I was led by you..."
Curly carefully put the things in his hand back into the grid: "Boss, you are already 32 years old, how can I not be excited..."
He stopped talking suddenly and took down the two books on the grid: "No, this is not right, come and have a look."
"Oh my god, what kind of shit luck is this?"
Cao Bin rushed over immediately: "What's wrong?"
There was an inconspicuous groove under the base where one of the ornaments was placed, and Curly happened to discover it.
"Boss, press it?" Curly asked Luo Xun.
Luo Xun looked at it and said, "Press it."
Curly blew some air on each of his hands, rubbed his hands together, stretched out his index finger devoutly, held his breath, and pressed lightly on the groove.
Soon, a slight noise was heard. Everyone looked around. Cao Bin asked, "What's moving? Am I blind? Where's the door? Where's the door I imagined?"
"later."
Luo Xun and Chi Xia walked to the antique display cabinet first and saw that a piece of floor was slightly loose.
Lin Wenjue squatted down and said, "You are quite smart. You didn't open the door to let people in."
He tapped a few times with his fingers and pressed on the edge. The floor lifted up completely, revealing the stairs below. "It's quite spacious. Do you want to go down?"
"What else can I do?"
Cao Bin rubbed his hands together and said, "I'll go down first and lead the charge. You all be careful."
"You're being so pretentious." Lin Wenjue had already gone down: "Follow me."
The crowd walked down the tunnel. It was not narrow at the bottom, but a small door blocked their way.
"Damn it, combination lock."
Cao Bin wiped the lock and said, "We can't guess this... The birthdays of the Tu Guolin brothers? Their wedding anniversary? The day their father went to prison? The anniversary of his first pot of gold? This is too many. Let's try them one by one?"
"no."
Luo Xun leaned over to check the combination lock: " This lock has a very high security level. If the password is entered incorrectly three times, it will be locked. It requires an extremely complicated procedure to use it again. We can't take this risk."
"What on earth is inside here? Look at this small iron door. It has such a high safety factor."
Curly knocked on the iron door: "Boss, how about we saw the door off?"
"What nonsense are you talking about." Luo Xun kicked him and said, "Come on, can you saw one for me?"
Curly sighed: "Chi Xia and I are leaving tomorrow, and it's really uncomfortable to be stuck here with this thing."
"It contains only his life-saving stuff." Chi Xia said, "Captain Luo, I have a suggestion for you."
"you say."
"If the password cannot be found in the end and the protagonist cannot wake up, you can really consider Brother Yu's suggestion."
Luo Xun glanced at her helplessly: "Thank you for your advice."
Because they had no idea about the password, they had to withdraw and contact the Public Security Bureau to watch over them.
"When I go to see Guilai later, I'll tell him to find a few people to study this lock and see if there are any other ways besides the password."
Seeing that he had finished the call, Chi Xia walked over and said.
Luo Xun nodded. This case now seemed to have many clues, but none of them were clear. It was like a pile of tangled threads waiting for them to slowly unravel.
"I don't want to wait until tomorrow to leave."
Chi Xia added: "I can't help much here, so I might as well go back and meet Li Yiming and Mr. Chen. Maybe there will be new clues."
"Okay."
Luo Xun pursed his lips: "Be careful when you go back. Tell me if there is any situation in time. Most importantly, you must take the medicine that Mr. Qiu gave you on time."
Chi Xia nodded, looked at his chapped lips, and took out a lip balm from his pocket: "Here."
"What?" Luo Xun lowered his head to look: "What is this?"
"Lip balm."
Chi Xia laughed: "Captain Luo, don't you know how dry your mouth is? It hurts me just looking at it."
Luo Xun happily took it, unscrewed the lid and put a layer of it on his mouth: "Tsk tsk, I feel comfortable immediately."
"How can it be that fast?" Chi Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Use it well."
Lin Wenjue said sarcastically, "Oh, my mouth is as dry as a field that has been dry for three years. It hurts when I stick my mouth out. It's not like some people..."
Cao Bin and Juanmao also came over: "Not like some other people..."
They both said in unison: "There is that girlfriend~"
Chi Xia was amused by these people: "We have everything. I'll give you all a tube."
She pulled out three tubes of lip balm from her pocket: "Come and get them yourself, first come, first served."
Cao Bin and the others took lip balm and pouted in front of Luo Xun, making Luo Xun so angry that he rolled his eyes.
Lin Wenjue took advantage of this opportunity to call Chi Xia out, feeling a little embarrassed: "I talked to Luo Xun for a long time last night about his sister."
Chi Xia laughed at him: "Brother Lin, you are really good at hiding things. Even someone as perceptive as Luo Xun didn't realize that you like his sister."
Lin Wenjue sneered: "Before he met you, his emotional system was not well developed. Do you have any objection to this?"
Chi Xia smiled, which was considered as his agreement.
"I really want to investigate this case with you, but discipline is discipline, and everything must be subject to the organization's arrangements. But Chi Xia, if there is any progress, can you... let me know?"
"certainly."
Chi Xia said: "And I will contact you frequently. In addition to Luo Xun, you should have investigated this case privately as well, right?"
"I just like your cleverness."
Lin Wenjue took out a key and said, "My parents know Curly. When the time comes, you can go to my house. There is a locked box under the bed in my room. This is the key. Inside is some clues I have found over the years. I hope it can help you."
Chi Xia took the key: "I must be able to help."
After leaving Tu Guolin's house, Chi Xia went to the hospital again, wanting to discuss with Su He about transferring Guilai to Dongzhou.
Su He looked at Gui Lai's ruddy face and said, " Don't worry about his condition. It's better for us to stay here. Now that all the clues are gathered here, you can't just sit there and get beaten. I have to help you vent your anger."
"that is."
Gui Lai gnawed on a chicken leg and said, "I firmly support my wife's decision. Xia'er, just focus on investigating your case. Don't worry about what's going on here."
Chi Xia pulled Su He out and talked about some recent events before leaving the hospital.
Su He returned to the ward. The man who was originally in a plaster cast had now sat up and did not look injured at all.
"Gone?"
Guilai stretched and said, "Fortunately, Dongzhou is dry. If it were in Qincheng, I would have gotten prickly heat."
Su He glanced at him and said, "No news from Lin Cuo and Jiang Yi yet? Haven't they reached an agreement yet?"
"Wait a little longer."
Gui said: "Jiang Yi is already in Yuji, and Sister Cuo still needs to negotiate with the people in the provincial department. After all, it is not a joint operation, so it cannot involve too many people. It is understandable that it is a bit slow."
Su He kicked his leg, took off her shoes and sat cross-legged on it : "Jiang Yi is going to act alone like this?"
"King bomb."
Gui Lai smiled and said, "This couple likes to play this kind of game the most. We just need to cooperate with them."
