So, several people squatted down, divided the area into pieces, and checked it inch by inch with their hands, trying not to miss any clues.
The weather at the end of August was still very hot, and soon, several people were sweating profusely. At this time, Lao Cui felt that the brick he was touching was different from the others. This one was a little higher.
He didn't rush to call for help, but knelt on the ground and carefully examined the brick floor. The bricks were all flat, with only one brick that was high. He pressed down with his hand, but it didn't budge at all. From this point of view, it looked no different from the other bricks.
Lao Cui suddenly remembered what Professor Dong said, and lifted the brick up suddenly. A small "cracking" sound came from the ground, and a crack appeared under the shelf where the plates and bowls were placed. Several people quickly lifted the shelf and saw that the crack was slowly getting bigger and bigger. Later, it was big enough to accommodate a person, and then it stopped.
Several people peered into the tunnel warily. It was pitch black, and since it was morning, no one had brought a flashlight. One of the plainclothes officers quickly ran out, got in a car, and headed back to the police station to get some. They were about to go down the tunnel, and they didn't know what lay below. They needed a flashlight each, so it was better to go back to the police station to get more.
After waiting for about twenty minutes, the plainclothes officer with a flashlight came back, and he brought a few colleagues with him. The area below the tunnel was unknown, and more people would provide more time for reinforcement in case of an emergency.
Suihe also followed, went into the house and observed the situation inside. Without saying a word, he took a flashlight and jumped into the tunnel.
Lao Cui couldn't shout at him loudly. He was so anxious that he kept cursing in his heart, "You little bastard, you just rushed forward without even thinking. Wait until I come out and see if I can spare you."
Lao Cui followed closely behind and jumped into the tunnel, following Suihe. In fact, there were several steps in the tunnel, but Suihe was afraid of leaving footprints and was too troublesome, so he jumped down directly. As a result, Lao Cui and the comrades behind him followed suit and jumped down directly.
I continued along the tunnel, the road getting wider and wider. I walked for about half an hour? Or forty minutes? It was quite a while, anyway, when I saw two forks in the road. Without thinking, I just went left. After another fifteen or sixteen minutes, I reached the end of the tunnel.
At the end was a large iron gate, locked with a large padlock. A colleague came up and fiddled with the lock for a few times, and it opened.
He opened the big iron door and found a warehouse. Wow, sacks of food were piled high. He took a dagger and cut open a sack, reached in and grabbed a handful. He took it out and saw that it was food. He put it in his mouth and chewed it. It was this year's new food!
The wheat harvest had just finished, and all the production teams and communes had paid their grain taxes to the county, and now they were messing around! Old Cui was practically exasperated.
After inspecting the grain in the warehouse, Suihe turned and led his men back toward the tunnel. They reached a fork in the road and took the right path. After walking for about half an hour, they saw a faint light overhead. Suihe continued walking, walking and walking, until they finally saw the exit: an abandoned house in a slum on the edge of the county town.
They returned to the tunnel and walked back until they reached a faint light. Four people lifted it with all their strength and took a long time to open the stone slab and crawl out. Only then could they see clearly that they were now in the county government building.
The tunnel, now brightly lit, was now clearly visible. Suihe spotted a large, heavy black bundle against the wall. Unwrapping it, he found a set of monitoring equipment inside. It was probably intended for use in a leader's room in the building, but before they could even begin, they were all taken down.
Sun Baodong is a real jerk! He's brave enough to bring out fresh food, and he brought so much of it. It looks like this tunnel won't be dug in a year or two. Who knows how many people these dog spies have implicated! Since that's the case, let's not waste time and arrest them one by one.
