Zhao Jingsong was so startled he almost jumped up. "What did you say? You saw someone spying on us? Why didn't you say so sooner?"
San Tou said, "I'm not sure either. I felt a little hungry again after I finished eating last night, so I went to the kitchen to get another can of food. I vaguely heard footsteps in the distance."
There weren't even any streetlights in the alley at this late hour. Who would come out? So I climbed over the wall and looked outside.
It was pitch black everywhere, and you couldn't see anything, but there really were footsteps in the alley. The footsteps were strange; they just kept going..."
Zhao Jingsong said, "Even if someone comes out in the middle of the night, they won't just stand there and wander around without leaving!"
"Someone's definitely watching us. We need to find a way to escape quickly! Don't wait for Six Arms; if we wait any longer, we'll be caught!"
The three-headed man said, "You're right, no one will wander around in one place forever unless they're watching us!"
"Let's go! We have to go, or we'll both be arrested!"
Zhao Jingsong walked out of the kitchen, stood in the yard, and looked around. This was a large area of alleyways, with alleyways and bungalows crisscrossing alleys. During the day, when people were coming and going, it would be even more impossible to sneak away!
He said worriedly, "But how do we get out? Whether it's day or night, we're being watched. If we go out, we'll be arrested..."
It's so hard for him. He'll get arrested if he goes out, and he'll get arrested the same way if he stays!
San Tou patted Zhao Jingsong on the shoulder and said, "If you walk out like this, you'll definitely get caught. Don't bother looking, it's no use!"
Zhao Jingsong said, "If we don't go out this way, how else can we go out? Do you have any other ideas?"
The three-headed man sneered and said, "Of course there are other ways! Do you know why we chose this place as our rendezvous point? This place is absolutely safe! Come with me!"
Zhao Jingsong couldn't understand San Tou's words at all, but he followed San Tou into the house.
San Tou told Zhao Jingsong to close the door, and then he moved the square table up and used it to block the door.
He walked to the spot where the square table used to be and kicked the floor.
This old house is quite exquisite; instead of cement, it has old-fashioned blue bricks paving the floor.
As he kicked the ground, some places made muffled thuds, while others made almost no sound.
Zhao Jingsong leaned closer to take a look, his eyes gleaming with joy. He lowered his voice and said, "Haha, so there's a secret passage here!"
The three-headed man said, "Of course! In our line of work, without secret passages, our heads would be moved at any moment!"
He squatted down and carefully examined the gaps in the blue bricks, then picked up a screwdriver that was placed inconspicuously in the corner of the wall.
He used a screwdriver to poke into the cracks between the bricks, bit by bit, and slowly pulled the blue brick up.
This is made of several blue bricks pieced together, with a large stone slab supporting it underneath.
Seeing that a corner of the stone slab had been pulled up, Zhao Jingsong immediately reached out to help lift it.
Beneath the stone slab was a dark passageway.
San Tou told Zhao Jingsong to jump down first, and he followed. He held the stone slab with both hands and put it back in its original position.
Zhao Jingsong held a small flashlight and shone it on the three heads. He said, "Put the blue bricks back in their original positions. Even if someone breaks in, they won't know where we went!!"
Haha, let them search! They'll search like crazy and still not find us!
"Of course!" said the three-headed man. "Who can find the entrance to this secret passage? Let's go!"
He led Zhao Jingsong along the narrow passage.
The passageway was quite narrow, only wide enough for one person to walk forward while bending over.
Zhao Jingsong was so dizzy from walking that he finally saw the exit.
The exit, like the entrance, is a large stone slab.
San Tou called out to Zhao Jingsong, and the two of them together dragged the large stone slab up and pushed it aside.
Zhao Jingsong climbed out of the passage and looked around. This was another room, which looked similar to the previous house, except that the house was quite dilapidated, with holes in the roof, and it looked like the house was about to collapse.
He walked to the window and looked out. The yard was also deserted, with grass growing up to waist height.
The three heads climbed out, put the stone slab back in its place, and called to Zhao Jingsong, "Stop looking, let's go quickly."
He opened the door and waved to the pine tree.
Zhao Jingsong obediently followed the three men out.
San Tou took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, inserted them into the large iron lock on the gate, and opened it with a snap.
He opened the iron gate and looked around cautiously. The alley was quite remote and there weren't many people around.
Zhao Jingsong followed San Tou out of the courtyard, and San Tou locked the large iron lock again.
The two hurried through the alleys, passing through several alleys before reaching a main road.
Only then did the two of them feel alive again, and they both looked at the alley behind them without prior arrangement.
The two bungalows were only a few hundred meters apart, but that short distance allowed them to shake off the plainclothes police officers who were monitoring them.
San Tou led Zhao Jingsong to the long-distance bus station under the cover of night, as they were taking the first long-distance bus of the morning to the airport.
The airport is in the suburbs, far from here, and you can only get there by long-distance bus.
Li Xiyue, who had been standing in the alley, watched Zhao Jingsong and San Tou run away.
Although Mibao is in the basement of Du Jingshan's villa, it can see everything here through the large screen in the space.
It anxiously said to Li Xiyue, "Are you just going to watch them run away? Aren't you going to catch them? Even lightning could strike them dead!"
Li Xiyue said, "If we arrest them now, how can we arrest the people who contacted them?"
You have to cast a long line to catch a big fish! Let's see where they can run off to.
She had been using her X-ray vision to track Zhao Jingsong and San Tou, following them to the exit of the secret passage.
Li Xiyue's figure was perfectly hidden by the night. She watched the direction San Tou and Zhao Jingsong were walking to determine where they were going.
If she wasn't mistaken, this direction led to the long-distance bus station.
Her X-ray vision allows her to see very far, a distance that Zhao Jingsong and the three-headed man cannot see her at all.
She followed behind San Tou and Zhao Jingsong with her hands behind her back, watching them walk to the vicinity of the long-distance bus station.
In this day and age, you can't stay in a hotel without a work permit and a household registration booklet.
San Tou could only squat in the corner with Zhao Jingsong, waiting for dawn.
The first long-distance bus departs at 6 a.m.
When they saw the long-distance bus station open, the two of them hurriedly went inside and bought long-distance bus tickets.
Mi Bao and Li Xiyue asked, "The two of them got on a long-distance bus. Where do they want to go?"
Li Xiyue said, "Isn't it easy to find out where they went? Just install a pinhole camera in the car."
