Chapter 42: Millennium Corpse



However, we searched every corner and did not find the entrance to the third floor. Is it a dead end?

Zhang Haitao turned around and frowned. "Since there are so many dead bones here, there must be an entrance to the next level. But the corpses are blocking the way, so few people can get down here. The entrance may have become hidden."

I asked curiously, "Could it be under the coffin as well?"

Zhang Haitao and Lao Sha exchanged a glance, and without a word, Lao Sha walked over to the large coffin and, with a sudden effort, moved it out of its horizontal position, turning it into an upright position. Zhang Haitao and I walked over to take a look. The ground was hard and smooth, with no signs of being disturbed.

Even if you knock it with your hand, it makes a solid sound.

"Move the small coffin away and have a look." Since there was nothing under the big coffin, Zhang Haitao decisively shifted his target to the small coffin.

This small coffin was obviously several times smaller than the large one, but Lao Sha, with his muscular build and the strength of an ox, could move the coffin with just a little effort. Not only did Zhang Haitao and the madam trust Lao Sha's strength, but even I was impressed.

However, what surprised us was that when Lao Sha tried to move the small coffin, his face turned red, and he couldn't seem to move the coffin at all.

After a while, Lao Sha sat down on the ground and panted, "Brother Tao, there is something wrong with this little coffin."

Zhang Haitao nodded. "Thankfully, the corpse was being held steady by the brothel owner, so she hadn't noticed anything here." We walked over to the small coffin and peered inside. It was small, and despite its age, it still looked pristine and intact. Inside was a mess of ephedra branches and other items.

Zhang Haitao removed the ephedra branches and glanced inside the coffin. Naturally, I wouldn't miss such a good opportunity and couldn't wait to look inside. There was nothing special about the coffin. It was exactly the same as the big coffin, just a little smaller. Most importantly, the woman's mobile phone that I saw earlier, which looked like Xuanxuan's, was found here.

Zhang Haitao picked up the phone and looked around. It was a pink silicone phone case with a conspicuous little zebra pattern on it.

I said excitedly, "Uncle Zhang, this really seems to be Xuanxuan's phone!"

Zhang Haitao's eyes also became excited. He held the phone tightly and said, "Yes, it's hers... But how come Xuanxuan's phone is here? And it's in Zi Shi's coffin. Could it be..." At this point, his face suddenly changed, and he picked up a utility knife and rushed forward to chop Zi Shi.

I hurriedly asked Lao Sha to stop him.

Xuanxuan's cell phone fell into Zishi's coffin, and killing was a common occurrence for Zishi, and there were dead bodies everywhere around him. As a father, how could Zhang Haitao remain calm after seeing this scene?

"Brother Tao, calm down. Maybe things are not as bad as you think!" Lao Sha hugged Zhang Haitao tightly. With such great strength, Zhang Haitao could not break free and he failed.

I walked over and took Zhang Haitao's phone. It was taking photos, and it still had 5% battery left. It looked like Xuanxuan was taking photos before she dropped it. But the battery was surprisingly durable; it still hadn't run out.

I flipped through the photos taken by Xuanxuan. Most of them were taken in the desert. She was wearing a white T-shirt, shorts, sneakers, bangs, a sweet smile, and a pair of sunglasses. She looked cute in every photo.

As I looked at the photos of girls exuding youthful vitality, the corners of my mouth rose. However, suddenly I discovered something very strange.

The time shown on these photos is six o'clock this morning, which is when Zhang Haitao and the brothel owner set out for Xiaohe Cemetery. Xuanxuan disappeared several days ago, but the time on the photos is completely inconsistent with the time when Xuanxuan disappeared. What is going on?

If the time on the phone is messed up, that's impossible. I checked the current time with the current time on my watch, and the difference is only one or two minutes. I also checked the time with Lao Sha and Zhang Haitao's watches, and they were all off by a few seconds, at most a few minutes. It's not that serious at all.

Xuanxuan, who had been missing for several days, suddenly appeared somewhere in the desert this morning... She took these photos with her mobile phone under the scorching sun. The strangest thing is, why was the mobile phone left in the coffin of the corpse in the Xiaohe cemetery?
