Chapter 213
After Yi Tiantian followed Xiao Yang into the back room, the atmosphere between Fei Cheng and Guangyi, who stayed where they were, became extremely tense. Even the bodyguards around Guangyi came forward and looked at Fei Cheng subconsciously with vigilance.
Guangyi looked at Feicheng, who wrapped himself tightly, with sharp eagle eyes. He swept the surroundings with his big hand, and then the men in black behind him retreated one after another.
He was the only one left, looking at Fei Cheng.
Feicheng also became serious at this time. He stood there, towering and motionless, as if he were a mountain.
Meanwhile, Guangyi's malicious gaze came through his gold-rimmed glasses.
But at this moment, a man in black beside Guangyi suddenly hurried forward, came straight to his side, and whispered a few words in Guangyi's ear.
Fei Cheng frowned, not knowing what the two had talked about specifically, but he saw that Guangyi's expression seemed to have become even more serious, with clouds in his eyes.
Feicheng immediately realized that something must have happened that was unfavorable to the Twilight Club.
As expected, Guangyi just glanced at him in the end, and then left with the man in black who came up to him. But before leaving, he turned around and instructed another group of black-clad bodyguards, apparently asking them to stay where they were and keep an eye on Feicheng.
Guangyi strode away from here, leaving Feicheng alone sitting in the lounge of the hall. Not far away was the lewd stage and the crazy audience below the stage.
Feicheng sat there and looked around, but found that there seemed something strange here.
The stage in the distance always disappears in an instant and then reappears in his field of vision. The performers on the stage will turn into white dry bones at certain moments, and the audience in the audience will also disappear at a special moment.
Originally Fei Cheng just thought he saw it wrong, so he gently closed his eyes and tried to relax.
But unexpectedly, after opening his eyes again, the symptoms of this hallucination became more and more severe.
Now it was not just the stage and the people around it that changed in an instant, the entire underground brothel was instantly transformed into the basement of a dilapidated villa in the wilderness.
The place was filled with dust, dirt, and insect eggs. From time to time, insects with more than a dozen legs would crawl across the ground. In the distance, there were piles of white bones. There were even a few corpses that had not completely decayed, but were now completely surrounded by white wriggling insects. The air was filled with a suffocating smell of decay.
Fei Cheng's heart beat faster, veins popped on his arms, and his temples throbbed. He tried to close his eyelids to drive away the fantasy he saw, but the flashes became more and more frequent, changing between the underground brothel and the decaying basement almost every second.
After realizing that this was most likely not an illusion he had created, Feicheng's Adam's apple rolled and he decided to explore this rotten basement.
But just as he was about to act, he saw Yi Tiantian walking out of the hotel room, followed by a man who looked like a double-door refrigerator.
Fei Cheng took a deep breath and looked at Yi Tiantian. The scene of the rotten basement never appeared again.
"Where's Mr. Guang?"
Yi Tiantian turned around and looked around, but did not see Guangyi.
"Fei...Xiao He, why do you look so bad? Is it hypoglycemia?"
He almost let the cat out of the bag just now, so Yi Tiantian quickly changed his words.
Before Fei Cheng could answer, the group of men in black who were left behind by Guangyi came forward and surrounded the two of them.
This group of people moved very quickly and surrounded Yi Tiantian almost in an instant.
A layer of hair suddenly stood up on Yi Tiantian's back, and he subconsciously moved to the side of Actor Fei.
Fei Cheng also took a defensive posture and blocked Yi Tiantian behind him.
"What are you going to do?! Where is Mr. Guang?!"
Yi Tiantian looked at the group of unfriendly men in black and asked very seriously.
At this moment, a man in black who was the leader of the group suddenly stood up. His face was pale and expressionless. He spoke like a machine: "Hello, distinguished guests. According to Mr. Guang's request, we are about to escort you out of the underground brothel. Please follow us."
The man in black did not answer Yi Tiantian's question and spoke to the two of them on his own.
"We will do our best to ensure your safety. Please follow us forward."
Fei Cheng and Yi Tiantian looked at each other, and Fei Cheng nodded slightly.
So the two of them were surrounded by the group of men in black and walked forward, leaving the underground brothel and returning to the ground, which was the dilapidated suburban villa.
When the two men walked out of the basement entrance, the door behind them was tightly closed by the man in black, and there was a loud noise, and dust flew in their faces.
Such a muffled sound was heard in the quiet villa, and Yi Tiantian got goose bumps on his arms.
He took a last look at the iron gate, and was surprised to find that it was full of rust. For some reason, there were three obvious scratches on it. Moreover, the door handle of the iron gate was in the shape of a green snake, twisting and turning, with a very unique shape. It looked like it was not the original one of the iron gate.
[Does this green snake symbol have anything to do with twilight? ]
[The clothes of those men in black also seemed to have this pattern embroidered on them.]
Yi Tiantian thought doubtfully in his heart.
Fei Cheng also frowned seriously. He took Yi Tiantian and quickly left the villa. In front of the villa, they saw a taxi coming to take them away.
As soon as the taxi driver saw Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng, he stretched out his hand to say hello.
"Here, here, here, here. Why did you two buy such a remote villa? It really took me a long time to find it."
The driver watched the two people get into the car and said to them through the rearview mirror.
Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng did not refute the driver's words. They just smiled and left the suburban villa at a high speed in the taxi.
Back in the city, there were more and more vehicles on the road and the surrounding buildings were noticeably taller. Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng just found a place and let the taxi driver drop them off.
After getting out of the car, Yi Tiantian instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He was gasping for breath as if he hadn't breathed fresh air for a long time.
Fei Cheng also took a deep breath. There was too much information for them to digest.
The two immediately changed cars and took a taxi back to Yi Tiantian's small villa, ready to exchange the information they had collected with each other.
After Yi Tiantian returned to the villa, the two of them sat on the sofa paralyzed. After a few seconds, Yi Tiantian suddenly got up from the sofa, then quickly found paper and pen from the room, sat on the soft cushion under the coffee table, picked up the pen and looked at Fei Cheng.
"Mr. Fei, today's events are very strange..."
Fei Cheng also sat up straight, because he also knew that the two of them might have touched upon some strange areas today, and these were things they had never thought of before.
So the two of them told each other what they had encountered, and Yi Tiantian took a pen and recorded it in a notebook.
When Fei Cheng was describing the hallucinations he had experienced, Yi Tiantian opened his mouth wide and promoted himself in amazement.
"So, you're seeing that decaying basement scene over and over again?"
Yi Tiantian held the pen in his hand, and because he used too much force, the joints were slightly white.
"Yes, and the scene is exactly the same every time I see it, with clear details, so I think it is very likely not an illusion."
Feicheng believed that he had been mentally healthy since childhood and had no illness or medication record, so it was unlikely that he would have hallucinations. The rotten basement was likely to exist in this world.
Yi Tiantian's Adam's apple rolled and he swallowed his saliva. He really thought these things were too bizarre.
If he had not experienced it himself, he would probably just think that those who told these stories were idiots dreaming.
He immediately opened the melon-eating system, ready to check if there were any relevant melons.
If this corrupt basement was mentioned in the melon-eating system, then it would be indirect proof that what Actor Fei saw was indeed not an illusion.
[Why does this melon-eating system fail to work when it comes to the critical moment? ! ]
[There is no such big melon! 】
[It's really hard for me not to suspect that this system is related to Twilight! ]
Yi Tiantian was really anxious this time.
But even so, he still couldn't find relevant content in the system, and all that came out were some irrelevant gossips.
Yi Tiantian gave up completely and decided to focus on the information he was collecting.
"In fact, I also encountered a very strange thing. Xiao Yang, the man I chose, said he didn't know me and had never seen me before..."
Yi Tiantian told Emperor Fei everything that happened in the teahouse and the conversation he and Xiao Yang had in the room today, and also raised his doubts.
"I think this is so weird. Could it be that we have traveled through time?"
Yi Tiantian pondered over it, but couldn't find a reasonable explanation.
"Travel through..."
Fei Cheng lowered his eyes and looked at the notebook where Yi Tiantian recorded information, and began to think.
"We still have too little information now. If we want to find out the truth, we must thoroughly penetrate the inner circle of the Twilight Society. Only in this way can we get the truth."
Yi Tiantian also put down the pen that he was holding tightly in his hand. He nodded slightly, and agreed very much with what Actor Fei said.
[It seems that we still need to get more information. ]
[I just don't know if there is any new news about the Twilight Club recently, and Fu Chongye hasn't contacted me again…]
[Why don't we first inform Officer Qin about the underground brothel? Only in this way can we clear it out as quickly as possible…]
Listening to Yi Tiantian's thoughts, Actor Fei spoke immediately.
"But let's keep this underground brothel a secret for now."
Actor Fei looked at Yi Tiantian with serious eyes and frowned slightly.
"If the information is leaked now, they will definitely suspect you of doing it, which will be very detrimental to subsequent operations."
"Um……"
Yi Tiantian didn't think so. He kept tapping on the notebook with his pen and expressed his thoughts.
"But if we allow the underground brothels to continue to develop, there will definitely be more and more victims, and they may move to other places, and it may be difficult to track them down at that time."
Fei Cheng pondered for a moment. In fact, what both people said made sense. It was just that Fei Cheng wanted to play the long game and catch a big fish, but he had to take the risk of not catching any fish.
Yi Tiantian wanted to completely eradicate the weeds, but he also had to take the risk of being wiped out along with them.
Both of them were thinking about a way to have the best of both worlds, and finally Yi Tiantian spoke first.
"How about this? In order to prevent this big fish from escaping, we can keep visiting the brothel during this period. In order to get rid of suspicion, we can introduce some trustworthy customers to the underground brothel. In this way, suspicion will not be directly placed on us."
Fei Cheng seemed to have understood what Yi Tiantian meant. After thinking for a moment, he added, "So what you mean is that we can keep in touch with the underground brothel and place more trustworthy customers there. When the time is right and they are less suspicious of you, we can report it here."
Yi Tiantian nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I mean."
[I just don’t know who I can trust…]
[By the way, Actor Fei has not yet revealed his identity, so he can be considered one, and then there are Hong Fengxing and Xie Yi who experienced the underground city incident together. ]
【The four of us should be able to successfully report this. 】
Yi Tiantian has already identified several people he can trust, but he doesn't know whether they have the time.
"If possible, I plan to bring people I trust to the underground brothels and then find the right opportunity to take action."
Yi Tiantian said to Fei Cheng seriously.
“Well, this method does work.”
Feicheng also nodded slightly.
After the two of them thought about what happened today and future plans, Yi Tiantian finally breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the coffee table.
"What happened today was so bizarre that my head is about to explode."
Feicheng's mind kept recalling the rotten basement scene, and he rubbed his temples in an awkward manner.
"In two days, we will go to the underground brothel again. This time, I will visit it with my real identity."
Yi Tiantian raised his head from his crooked arms and looked at Fei Cheng: "Mr. Fei, what if our plan fails?"
Fei Cheng looked at Yi Tiantian's moist brown eyes and long drooping eyelashes, and his heart suddenly softened. He couldn't help but reach out and touch his hair.
"No, between the two of us we can figure out what happened.
Yi Tiantian nodded and was about to say something when he suddenly heard the doorbell ring.
It seems like someone is coming outside the villa.
Fei Cheng and Yi Tiantian looked at each other. Yi Tiantian stood up and prepared to see who was outside through the electronic door lock, and then he saw an unexpected person.
There were actually two people standing outside the door waiting at this time.
It’s Yueyue and Yangyang!
Yi Tiantian had clearly told them not to come today, but unexpectedly they came anyway. Is there some emergency?
No, if it was an emergency, why didn't they call him in advance?
Frowning subconsciously, Yi Tiantian looked at the surveillance screen again, and then found that there seemed to be something wrong with the two people inside.
Yueyue and Yangyang were standing at the door, but both their posture and their personal temperament seemed very different from usual.
Especially Yangyang, Yi Tiantian also saw a vague black shadow on his wrist, which looked like a tattoo.
You have to know that Yangyang has never had a tattoo before, so the person standing in front of the door at this moment is very likely not Yangyang himself, but as to who he is...
Yi Tiantian's Adam's apple rolled and his forehead was covered with sweat.
Because Yi Tiantian stood in front of the smart door lock for too long, Fei Cheng, who was originally sitting on the sofa, also realized that something seemed wrong, so he stood up and walked over to look at the surveillance screen in the smart door lock.
"Isn't there no one here? Tiantian, what were you looking at just now?"
Fei Cheng's words awakened Yi Tiantian from his dream. He immediately rubbed his eyes and looked at the surveillance screen again, and then he found that there was actually no shadow of a person in it.
"How could this happen? I clearly saw someone just now..."
Yi Tiantian looked at the screen with wide eyes, but there was no shadow of anyone on it.
"I seemed to hear the doorbell just now."
Fei Cheng frowned, he also knew that strange things were continuing to happen. They were now like living in a thick nightmare fog, true and false, and he could no longer trust his own senses.
While the two were thinking quickly, a notification sound suddenly came from Yi Tiantian's mobile phone.
In such a quiet moment, the sound of the cell phone notification was particularly obvious. Yi Tiantian finally reacted and reached out to take the phone, looking down at the message on the screen.
Fei Cheng looked at Yi Tiantian, but found that his face turned pale the next second.
Yi Tiantian's hands holding the phone were shaking slightly, because he saw that the people who received messages on the phone were Yueyue and Yangyang!
In the group chat of the three of them, Yueyue and Yangyang were talking to each other.
Swiping up the chat history, Yi Tiantian saw their entire conversation.
Yangyang: I went out of the city this afternoon to relax at the beach. How is the scenery at the beach?
Followed by several photos taken at the beach, some of the sky, some of the waves, a beachside cafe, and a cup of latte art.
Yueyue: Wow, the sky is so blue! Is this cafe owned by the famous old couple on the Internet?
Yang Yang: Yes, I saw their report on the Internet a few days ago. I happened to be free today, so I went to have a look.
Yueyue: Yes, yes, yes! I also got it a few days ago. I didn’t expect that you have such strong execution ability!
When Yi Tiantian looked at these chat records, he always felt that something was wrong.
But he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he opened the photos sent by Yangyang on his mobile phone and showed them to Feicheng.
Feicheng took the phone and looked at it carefully, and then he saw the pictures that Yangyang posted in the group.
"Have you ever been to this cafe, Mr. Fei?"
Yi Tiantian asked doubtfully.
Fei Cheng shook his head and said, "I don't usually pay much attention to these things, so I haven't been there. Why, do you think there is something suspicious here?"
Actor Fei obviously noticed that Yi Tiantian had something else in mind, so he asked directly.
"It's not that I'm suspicious, but how can I be sure that my assistant really went to this place?"
Yi Tiantian handed the phone to Actor Fei and frowned slightly.
"I always feel like these pictures are a little fake..."
Yi Tiantian thought about it over and over again, but still couldn't figure out why he felt that there was something wrong with these pictures.
"These pictures...if they were taken with the original camera, then the pictures can be saved and analyzed. I remember there is a way to see the hidden information in the pictures."
Fei Cheng took Yi Tiantian's phone and operated it for him.
"Are you sure it's the photos that are wrong, not your assistant?"
Fei Cheng asked without raising his head.
[My mind is so confused right now, but Yangyang is really a little weird.]
[He never shared photos of where he went in the group before, why did he suddenly come out and say that he went to a cafe at this critical moment? ]
[This is so weird, Yangyang, yes, it’s Yangyang who has problems! ]
Yi Tiantian closed his eyes, tightly bound his eyelids, and finally came to a conclusion in his heart.
[I'm going to go to the melon-eating system to see if Yangyang has any gossip. ]
Feicheng had already finished analyzing the picture by now, and the information above showed that the photo was indeed taken just this afternoon. However, he didn't know whether this photo was taken by Yangyang himself.
At this time, Yi Tiantian had already opened the melon-eating system and began to search carefully in it.
[Yangyang, Yangyang, what do you have in mind...]
【ah?!】
Yi Tiantian seemed to have seen something and suddenly let out a cry of surprise, and then nothing happened afterwards.
Fei Chengjian frowned slightly and quickly raised his head to look at him.
Yi Tiantian opened his mouth slightly. He did not notice the look in Fei's eyes and seemed to be still reading the melon-eating system in his mind.
[Yang Yang is preparing a birthday surprise for me?! ]
[Because he knew my birthday was coming soon, he specially went to this seaside cafe to arrange a surprise party, and he also agreed with the owner to book the whole place for the day...]
Yi Tiantian was dumbfounded when he saw this.
Because he had no idea when his birthday was in this world, and he had never paid attention to it, but he didn't expect Yangyang to arrange a surprise birthday party for him in advance!
And most importantly, the suspicion I had towards Yangyang just now seemed completely groundless!
Because he had a complete alibi, even if I vaguely felt that he was a little strange, I couldn't provide any evidence.
Feicheng also heard this, and then told Yi Tiantian what he found about the photo.
"These photos were indeed taken there, but I don't know if they were taken by me."
Yi Tiantian had just recovered from the shock and hurried to Fei Cheng's side to look at the results, and then he found that the model of the mobile phone that took these photos was also on it.
And the mobile phone Yangyang uses is exactly the model displayed on the screen!
"It seems that I was just overthinking..."
Yi Tiantian now completely dispelled his doubts about Yangyang, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
If Yang Yang's identity was really problematic, Yi Tiantian didn't know how to face him. After all, their relationship was quite close. If someone he trusted so much chose to betray him...
Yi Tiantian didn't even dare to think about it.
"Why don't we just stop here today? Too many things have happened."
Yi Tiantian lowered his head and frowned, rubbed his temples with his hands, and sighed softly.
Fei Cheng nodded, patted Yi Tiantian's shoulder and said, "Take a good rest today and stop thinking too much. Let's find a chance to go to the underground brothel again and see what's going on inside."
Yi Tiantian nodded, bit his lip, and seemed to hesitate and have something to say.
Fei Cheng looked at Yi Tiantian's hesitant look and asked tentatively, "Tiantian, do you have anything to say?"
Yi Tiantian pursed her lips and looked up, meeting Fei Cheng's concerned eyes.
"Mr. Fei, could you please not leave today..."
"Um."
Fei Cheng had guessed Yi Tiantian's thoughts long ago, so he naturally responded quickly. He smiled and nodded.
"Okay, I'll go home and get some toiletries, and I'll stay here with you until you relax."
Yi Tiantian's brown eyes lit up instantly.
[I didn’t expect Mr. Fei to agree so quickly! ]
[I was worried that I might see something strange if I stayed alone! ]
[I feel much more at ease knowing that the actor Fei is here with me!! ]
"Thank you, Mr. Fei."
Yi Tiantian smiled slightly, and the curve at the corner of his lips looked like a small crescent moon.
This smile touched the heart of Actor Fei so much that he couldn't help but stretch out his arms to touch Yi Tiantian's soft black hair, and his voice unconsciously became more doting.
"You're welcome. I'm a little scared, too."
[Ah?! Mr. Fei said this just to save my face, right?]
[But if you say you are scared so seriously, will anyone really believe you...]
Yi Tiantian blushed, he knew that Actor Fei must be comforting him.
Fei Cheng stood up with a smile and prepared to go home to get some toiletries.
…
Fei Cheng did stay in Yi Tiantian's villa at night, but the two of them slept in separate rooms. Yi Tiantian slept in his original room, while Fei Cheng slept in the guest room of the villa.
Although there was a corridor between the two of them, Yi Tiantian felt much more at ease at night.
The next morning, after Yi Tiantian got up, he immediately informed the two assistants in the mobile group that they were not needed that day.
Yi Tiantian did not read the replies from his assistants because his mind was full of something when he woke up this morning.
Early in the morning, Yi Tiantian knocked on Feicheng's room door.
Although Fei Cheng had been awake for some time, he did not expect Yi Tiantian to knock on the door so early, so he walked quickly to the door and opened it.
Unexpectedly, the young man in front of him said firmly the moment he saw him: "Let's go to the underground brothel again today!"
Fei Cheng lowered his head, with an uncontrollable smile on the corner of his lips.
Who is a good person who gets up early in the morning and invites guests to play in the brothel...
Yi Tiantian hadn't noticed the strangeness of his behavior at this time. He said righteously: "I was thinking about what happened last night. If I don't go now, I won't be able to sleep tonight!"
Fei Cheng looked down at Yi Tiantian's eyes and found that there were thick dark circles under his big eyes.
It looked like he didn't sleep well the whole night.
In order to thoroughly understand the secret, Feicheng decided to visit again with Yi Tiantian to see if he could find any new clues.
So he nodded: "We'll go after breakfast."
Yi Tiantian then rubbed his head as if waking up from a dream, and then said: "I forgot to prepare breakfast. This underground brothel is really driving me crazy."
But Fei Cheng smiled and said, "It's okay. I have already ordered breakfast in advance. Just wash up and go downstairs and you should be able to eat."
Yi Tiantian immediately pursed his lips, looked at Fei Cheng pitifully, and clasped his hands together.
"Thank you, Mr. Fei!"
…
Because Yi Tiantian really wanted to find out what happened as soon as possible, the two of them ate the meal in a hurry. This time they did not drive there by themselves, but called a taxi.
After getting in the car and agreeing on seats with the driver, the bearded driver in the front seat looked at the two of us in confusion through the rearview mirror.
"What were you two doing in a place like that? I remember it was a wasteland. I heard the developer ran away. You guys are not the ones who paid in advance, are you?"
Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng looked at each other and nodded.
"It's so pitiful."
The driver was amazed, then quickly started the car and took the two "poor people" to their destination at lightning speed.
"Next time you buy a house, you should research the developer carefully. This villa is really a big bargain."
The bearded driver kindly gave the two of them some instructions before leaving.
After the current driver left, Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng continued along the route they remembered from yesterday. Everything was normal at the beginning. The surroundings were the same desolate forest as they saw yesterday. There were a few dilapidated villas in the forest. They walked along the path and passed by familiar scenery.
But after walking for more than ten minutes, Yi Tiantian turned around and looked around, only to find that the forest looked the same everywhere, but they could not find the villa from yesterday.
"Where on earth is it? Why haven't I seen it after walking for so long?"
Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng stopped beside a big tree. They stood at the place where the villa was yesterday in their memory, but what they saw in front of them was a collapsed ruin.
Feicheng walked forward and looked around the ruins of the villa. When he squatted down, he found something familiar.
"Tiantian, come and see what this is?"
Yi Tiantian also walked forward anxiously, came to Fei Cheng's side, squatted beside him, and looked at the iron gate that had long collapsed in the ruins.
"This looks like the iron door leading to the basement, right?"
Feicheng stood up and kicked away most of the tiles covering the iron gate, and soon the entire appearance of the iron gate was revealed.
A rusty iron door appeared in front of the two people, with three clear scratches on it. These were exactly the marks that Actor Fei had seen on the iron door of the underground brothel before.
But Yi Tiantian quickly cleaned up all the tiles in the direction of the door handle, but did not find the green snake-shaped door handle as he had imagined.
"What's going on?"
Yi Tiantian was really confused. The three scratches on the iron door seemed to indicate that this was indeed the entrance to an underground brothel. But if this was really the case, then why wasn't the door handle the green snake that Yi Tiantian had noticed before? !
Fei Cheng also understood Yi Tiantian’s doubts. He stood up, took a deep breath, and looked down at the iron door.
"We must have found the right place. This is indeed the underground brothel we visited yesterday. As for the door handle...it's very likely that it was taken away a long time ago."
Yi Tiantian also stood up, frowning and looking confused. He walked back and forth beside the ruins of the iron gate, but still couldn't figure out anything.
"But why did the brothel that was still in good condition yesterday become a ruin today? And why did they specifically remove the door handle? Is the green snake shape really the symbol of the Twilight Society?"
A series of questions were like sharp arrows shot at the two of them, and they couldn't answer any of them.
Yi Tiantian once again opened the melon-eating system in his mind to see if there was any useful information in it.
I thought this gossip-eating system would become dumb when it comes to the Twilight Club, but a new gossip has been updated, and it is about the ruins of the villa where they are now!
Yi Tiantian immediately clicked on it to check it out, and was eating melons in his heart.
[It turns out that this place is just like what the driver said, the original developer ran away with the money, and this place has become an unfinished project and no one lives here anymore. ]
[Someone recently bought some semi-finished villas, apparently intending to build some special areas here, but abandoned the plan after just one week.]
[And the people who bought these semi-finished villas were the top executives in the Twilight Club! ]
After reading these contents, Yi Tiantian felt like his brain was about to explode.
[Is this system lying? ! ]
[Yesterday, Mr. Fei and I saw the existence of the underground brothel with our own eyes, so why did the system say that the top leaders of the Twilight Society gave up on this plan?!]
【This is not right! There is something wrong with the system! 】
Yi Tiantian only believes what he has seen with his own eyes, but because the melon-eating system has never lied, Yi Tiantian has great trust in it.
But he really saw the existence of an underground brothel with his own eyes. What the system said was contrary to the facts. Yi Tiantian now didn't know what to believe.
Fei Cheng also frowned tightly. At this moment, a breeze suddenly blew through the forest, and the lush leaves made a rustling sound. He turned his head and looked around.
"Let's get out of here first."
Fei Cheng came to Yi Tiantian and directly grabbed the latter's arm.
Yi Tiantian looked at the ruins again with nostalgia, but because he could not find any clues, he could only leave with Emperor Fei.
The two walked forward for a while in the ruins before hailing a taxi. Unexpectedly, the driver who took them here was still the same driver who had just brought them here.
The bearded driver saw Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng from a distance, and greeted them with a smile after they got in the car.
"What a coincidence! I knew this order was for both of you. I happened to be nearby so I took it."
After getting in the taxi, Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng both sat in the back seat of the taxi. After getting in the car, Yi Tiantian closed his eyes and thought about the iron door he saw in the ruins of the villa today, and the missing green snake door handle.
Fei Cheng leaned forward slightly, looked at the driver and asked, "Mr. Driver, do you know what strange things happened in this area?"
If they cannot obtain information through normal channels, then perhaps these folk tales may hide some truth that they want to know.
From what the taxi driver said just now, he seemed to know more about this area, so Feicheng decided to consult him.
The driver glanced at Fei Cheng in the rearview mirror, who was looking curious, but he suddenly narrowed his eyes, as if thinking about something.
Fei Cheng's Adam's apple couldn't help but tighten. The driver's look was a little strange.
But the driver soon realized something, pointed to the rearview mirror, and said loudly: "I was thinking, you two look familiar, are you big stars? I think I've seen you on TV!"
Fei Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect that the driver looked so serious just now. It turned out that he was thinking about this matter.
"Yes, I'm Feicheng, this is..."
Fei Cheng turned and looked at Yi Tiantian.
Yi Tiantian also smiled at the driver in the rearview mirror and replied, "Hello, I am Yi Tiantian."
"I didn't expect that big stars like you would also fail in investment... But this small amount of money should be nothing to you."
The bearded driver smiled self-deprecatingly, and then began to answer the question just raised by Mr. Fei.
"You know what? My family lives in the village next to this villa. I've heard since I was a child that the feng shui of this place is not very good. People always see strange things there. The one that impressed me the most was a man from the same village who was two years younger than me. He once went there and went crazy after he came back. He said he saw some strange monsters. They were wandering around with torches, as if they were performing some strange rituals..."
Because it was a long way from here to the city, the driver talked a lot and told the two of them everything he had heard.
"But later on, that person was fine. He just talked a lot for two days and then returned to normal."
The driver tapped the steering wheel with one hand and said to the two of them.
"Did you two see anything strange when you entered just now? I would say that this place is really uninhabitable. No matter how you look at it, it's too unlucky. When you walk into that place, you feel a chill on your back, as if countless eyes are staring at your back in the dark!"
The driver shook his head and sighed as he spoke.
Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng also thought so. They had only been inside for less than an hour and they already felt unwell. If someone lived in such a place for a long time, they would definitely have serious health problems.
However, the driver only talked about some subjective feelings and did not mention any supernatural legends here, so for Yi Tiantian and the others, there were still not many useful clues.
Just like that, Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng returned to the villa under the escort of the taxi driver.
This time when he returned home, Yi Tiantian did not collapse on the sofa like he did last time. Instead, he turned on his laptop at home and prepared to create a clue network on it, recording all the clues they had found so far.
Fei Cheng stayed by Yi Tiantian's side, providing support from time to time.
The two of them discussed for a whole afternoon without sleeping or eating, and finally came up with a complete clue map.
All the clues started from the underground brothel. When Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng went there for the first time, they saw three scratched iron doors, green snake door handles and a dilapidated villa.
But when Fei Cheng was in the villa, he had seen the illusion of a rotten basement. After Yi Tiantian and Xiao Yang entered the room alone, Xiao Yang, who had met him once in the teahouse, actually told Yi Tiantian that he didn't know him. However, he and Xiao Yang later exchanged contact information.
After returning home, Yi Tiantian saw the phantoms of Yueyue and Yangyang outside the door through the surveillance camera of the smart door lock, and there seemed to be an unclear tattoo on Yangyang's wrist. However, Yangyang also had a very clear alibi. When the phantom appeared, he was in a cafe by the sea.
Today, they went to the underground brothel again, but found it was a complete ruin. Although there was still an iron door with three scratches, the green snake door handle was missing.
The most important point is that all traces of the underground brothel have completely disappeared. Judging from the driver's words and the content of the melon-eating system, it is indeed a desolate ruin with few people going there.
These are the clues that have been discovered so far. After Yi Tiantian finished summarizing, he turned and looked towards Feicheng.
"I happen to have Xiao Yang's phone number right now. Even though he said he didn't know me, I can try to call him."
Yi Tiantian was originally sitting cross-legged on the carpet. He stood up from the ground, supporting himself with the tea table with his hands, and then took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
"Luckily, I left a phone number, otherwise I would have suspected that I was hallucinating."
Fei Cheng didn't know that they had exchanged phone numbers, so when he heard that Yi Tiantian could contact Xiao Yang, who also appeared in the underground brothel, through the phone, his eyes lit up.
"Okay, then let's call Xiao Yang and see what he says."
Yi Tiantian nodded, then quickly found the mobile phone number marked "Xiao Yang" in his address book and quickly dialed it.
But after waiting for a few seconds, a cold mechanical female voice came from Yi Tiantian's mobile phone.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is not in service. Please..."
Yi Tiantian frowned and took the phone away from his ear, then carefully counted the digits of Xiao Yang's phone number and found that the digits were indeed correct, so it was possible that one of the numbers was wrong.
But at that time, Yi Tiantian handed the phone to Xiao Yang and asked him to input the number himself. Could he have dialed his own phone number wrong?
[A newcomer like Xiao Yang who is eager for opportunities in the entertainment industry, shouldn't he give up this good opportunity? ]
[He certainly wouldn't deliberately enter his phone number incorrectly, was it an accident? ? ]
The more Yi Tiantian thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. This matter was too strange and too coincidental.
There is a saying that goes, most of the coincidences in the world are basically what others want you to see. If there are too many coincidences, they are no longer coincidences.
When Fei Cheng saw that the call was not connected, he thought of something else.
"Didn't you meet in the teahouse before? Does Xiao Yang know anyone? Maybe we can get his phone number."
Yi Tiantian quickly opened the address book again, because he thought of Director Xiao He first.
Director Xiao He should still be busy filming in the crew recently, but the overall filming has come to an end, so she should have time to answer the phone now.
So Yi Tiantian just hit him directly.
"Hello, is this Teacher Yi? Long time no see! We all missed you so much after you left..."
A familiar voice came, and it was Director Xiao He who answered the phone.
Yi Tiantian exchanged a few words with her with a smile, and then mentioned the main purpose of today's call, which was to find Xiao Yang's phone number.
"Well... we have worked together before, and my assistant should have his contact information, but that was a year ago, and I don't know if he has changed his number now."
Director Xiao He immediately waved and called the assistant beside him, and asked her to look for Xiao Yang's contact information on her phone.
"And I heard that he has retired now. It seems that he is completely disappointed with the entertainment industry, so he has gone back to the mountains and forests."
"Retreat to the mountains?"
Yi Tiantian was a little surprised.
"Yes, ever since she found out her husband was murdering for money, Liu Juanhua took several of her subordinates who were originally planning to join the entertainment industry and lived in seclusion in the mountains. I have never heard from them again."
Director Xiao He grabbed a handful of messy hair, and the assistant beside her had already sent all of Xiao Yang's cell phone numbers and WeChat numbers that had been saved to Director Xiao He's cell phone.
"My assistant has found it. I will send you Xiao Yang's WeChat and mobile phone numbers now, Teacher Yi."
"Okay, thank you, Director Xiao He."
"It's okay, it's just a piece of cake!"
Director Xiao He smiled generously.
After hanging up the phone, Yi Tiantian called the mobile phone number sent by Director Xiao He. After a series of rings, the other party answered the call.
"Hello? I'm done with this now. Don't call me again."
A deep male voice came from the other side, and it seemed to carry some ethereal feeling of escaping into Buddhism.
"Wait a moment!"
Yi Tiantian said quickly.
"I'm Yi Tiantian, Xiao Yang, I have a few things I want to ask you."
"Mr. Yi? Why is it you? Where did you get my phone number?"
At this time, Xiao Yang was standing in a small courtyard in the countryside somewhere wearing a T-shirt and red plastic rain boots. In his hand, which was not holding the mobile phone, he was holding a long hoe, as if he was about to go to the field.
"Do you remember what happened between us in the underground brothel? Why did you say you didn't know me?"
Yi Tiantian went straight to the point and threw all the questions out at once.
But Xiao Yang over there was completely confused. He stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head, and asked in confusion: "Ah? Underground brothel? I quit it a long time ago, Mr. Yi, and... I have never seen you in there..."
Xiao Yang racked her brains but couldn't remember having ever seen Yi Tiantian in an underground brothel, let alone talked to him in an underground brothel.
"But we just talked in the underground brothel yesterday, and you said you didn't know me, and the cell phone number you gave me didn't work."
Yi Tiantian frowned and asked in surprise.
"Mr. Yi, did you recognize the wrong person? After that incident, I and many of my brothers followed my mother to the countryside. We had given up on pursuing our dreams in the entertainment industry a long time ago, so we retired and never made that kind of money again."
There was a hint of bitterness in Xiao Yang's voice, and it seemed that he was also forced to bow to reality.
"We are now growing our own crops in the countryside, being self-sufficient, and enjoying the scenery. This is also good."
Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng were so surprised that they even began to doubt whether the person they saw that day was Xiao Yang himself.
"Wait a minute, let me ask you a question first."
Yi Tiantian decided to put the matter of the real and fake Xiao Yang aside for the time being.
"Where was the place you worked at built? Is it still in operation?"
Hearing Yi Tiantian's anxious tone, Xiao Yang did not dare to delay, so he quickly told him everything.
"My mother and I worked in a large shopping mall at the time. It was actually quite hidden and you needed a membership card to get in. I don't know if it's still open now, but when we left, it was already in bad shape and there were very few customers. The brothel had thought about moving to a villa in the suburbs, but I don't know why the plan was shelved. So I think it's very likely that the brothel has closed down now."
Feicheng and Yi Tiantian listened carefully to Xiao Yang's narration and found that his words were connected with those of the driver.
Both of them had said that there seemed to be people trying to use the abandoned villas in the suburbs, but then they stopped for some reason.
Xiao Yang also said the same thing, which means that this thing is most likely true.
The two of them had now obtained enough information. When Fei Cheng was about to signal Yi Tiantian that he could hang up the phone now, he heard Yi Tiantian ask another question.
"Xiao Yang, have you ever seen the green snake symbol?"
"Green snake? No."
Xiao Yang answered with a swift and decisive move.
"I see that those who get tattoos usually don't get snakes on their bodies."
"Okay, thank you for answering my question."
Yi Tiantian seemed to have thought of something. He exchanged a few more words with Xiao Yang and quickly hung up the phone. Then he turned to look at the frowning Actor Fei.
His eyes lit up, as if he had discovered some important clue.
"Mr. Fei, do you think it's possible that all this is true?"
"Is everything true? But we see two different versions of the story."
Feicheng explained to Yi Tiantian slowly and leisurely.
"First there was the underground brothel that existed, then there was the underground brothel that disappeared. Then there was the assistant who appeared at the door and the assistant who appeared at the beach. There was Xiao Yang who had been seen in the underground brothel and Xiao Yang who had returned to the countryside to farm. These were all pairs of opposite things."
"Yes, these are indeed the opposite, but is it possible that they are actually both true?"
Yi Tiantian had a storm of thoughts. He stood up from the sofa and paced back and forth in the living room.
"These things are actually all true. What we saw and heard are all facts."
Fei Cheng sat on the sofa, put one hand on his chin, and thought intently for a moment, and then his eyes lit up instantly.
"You mean, parallel universe?!"
