Chapter 115: Big Deal
Su Ning came to the backyard of Yan's house quietly and was about to move the ladder out of the space when he heard some movement in the abandoned house across the wall!
Although the person was very cautious, she was immediately noticed by her because she was pressed against the wall and it was dark and quiet all around.
Who could it be?
What are you doing in a deserted house so late at night?
With a hint of doubt in his heart, he slowly climbed up the wall with the ladder and cautiously stuck half of his head out.
With the help of the not-so-bright waning moon in the sky tonight, can you see the orange light that seems to be blocked by something?
After a little thought, she felt that it should be a flashlight. The man was probably afraid that the beam of light would be too conspicuous at night, so he covered it with something. This way, she could see the road clearly without worrying about being discovered if the light was emitted.
Seeing the yellow light floating into the room on the far right, Suning thought something was wrong, so he climbed up the wall, collected the ladder and then let it out to the other side. After climbing down, he did not choose to leave immediately but sneaked over.
The house in front of me has been abandoned for who knows how long. The half-hanging windows and doors are so dilapidated that they can only serve as decorations that may fall down at any time.
He half-lay behind the windowsill with only his eyes showing, and quickly glanced around the room.
The strange thing was that she clearly saw someone come in, but there was no shadow of anyone in the house at this time.
There is a secret passage or a dark room!
This was the only thought that came to my mind almost subconsciously.
Since this abandoned house is right next to the Yan family, someone sneaked in here in the dark right after the Yan family was robbed...
Suning had some guesses in his mind, so he calmed down and stood still.
After just a few minutes, a slight noise was heard in the room, followed by footsteps.
She retracted her head, leaned against the wall and held her breath until the footsteps gradually faded away. She still maintained a half-squatting, half-leaning posture without moving.
He waited for ten minutes, until his legs felt numb and he was sure that the man had no intention of making a comeback, then he sat down and began to massage his legs vigorously.
After the numbness and soreness disappeared and he was able to stand up, he quickly went into the house.
He took out a flashlight from the space, and followed the man's example by taking out a thin and breathable shirt to cover it. Suddenly, a faint light was lit in the room.
Only then did she realize that this room did not look like a place to live, but more like a utility room or a storage room.
Because there's a barn built with thick planks against the wall?
She had seen barns similar to this in the homes of villagers in several brigades below.
In the south where rice is the main crop, every household builds such a barn to facilitate the spreading and drying of grain after the autumn harvest.
Unlike the rice that can be directly obtained in the city, what the team distributed was millet, which would only be threshed in a threshing bucket when it was ready to be eaten.
Therefore, building such a barn here is not only impractical but also takes up a lot of space. Who would build a barn-like granary that can't even be half filled?
This made her doubt that the barn was just a trick.
As if to prove his idea, Suning did not go in to check. Instead, he walked around the outside of the barn, trying not to miss any details.
"Huh?"
The dust around here is so thick, why is there only a thin layer here?
Especially since it is in a very inconspicuous location, a place that most ordinary people would not notice.
She stretched out her hand tentatively and felt around for a while, and the uneven surface she felt with her fingertips made her eyes light up.
“Ka——”
I saw the wooden board along the barn slowly sinking, revealing a cellar-style handle door.
He put on a new pair of gloves, grasped the handle and pulled hard, and a staircase made of rammed earth appeared in front of him.
Perhaps because the door had just been opened and fresh air was flowing in, I didn't smell any strong smell of dust or dirt.
Grabbing the flashlight, he slowly crawled down. When he pulled away the shirt covering his body and took in the entire situation underground, Suning couldn't help but sigh at his luck.
"Is this one of Yan Bin's three burrows?"
Boxes of the same type, containing similar items.
Two boxes of neatly bundled black croakers, two boxes of large yellow croakers, and one box of gold, silver, jade and jewelry.
So the person just now was Yan Bin. Because his house was robbed, he took some time to make sure whether his belongings were taken away?
You can leave with peace of mind only after you find out that there is nothing, right?
Sorry, I didn't have it before but now...
With a wave of his hand, Suning stored all the boxes in the cellar into the space and decided to do something bigger!
Not only will he be worried and anxious for the next few days, but he will also feel heartbroken.
Who told her that she is such a vengeful person at heart?
It would be best if he found out as soon as possible, so after climbing out, he did not restore the place to its original state. Instead, he left in a swagger and rode his bicycle quickly to the largest and only black market in the city.
She also has to thank Tang Tian for her memories, otherwise she would not have known about the Yan family and Yan Bin's lair.
When they first came to Gu City, Zhang Ze and his friends accidentally discovered that the black market was just a place for people to trade.
Their lair is not far from where the transactions take place, it is a stilt house near the Lishui River.
Outside this stilt house, facing the direction of the original Gaoyun Bridge, there is a stone wall with paintings of strange dances and mysterious words.
There are about ten similar stone walls standing by the river. It is said that if you look down from a high altitude, you will find that these individual stone walls are combined into an ancient rune.
Passing by this two or three meter high stone wall full of mystery and legendary stories, she naturally passed by it and headed straight for her destination, having already seen it.
…
The stilt house was brightly lit. Three or four men were sitting in the lobby with their bare chests. There were several plates of cold food on the table.
"Hey, big brother called Biaozi and the others out so late at night. What big thing happened?"
"You asked me and I want to ask you. I'm not a worm in Big Brother's stomach. How can I know something that hasn't been said?"
"I see that Big Brother looks unhappy. He looks very unhappy. I think something fatal has happened."
"Ah, what...what should I do then?"
The tallest man drank a glass of boiled water, as if answering his companions or muttering to himself, "What can I do? I'm going to die!"
Once you start working in this industry, everyone has to keep their head on the line. Even if you want to quit, will the people above you allow you to do it?
After hearing what he said, the few people who were already frightened by the previous big scene felt even more uneasy.
Even the people guarding the black market outside were called back and taken away. How could this not illustrate the seriousness of the problem?
Several people were hungry, but no one had an appetite at this time.
"I want to go home."
"Where are you going? Big brother told us to guard the warehouse, just in case..."
With several big locks locked and the keys still with Brother Biao, what could be the problem?
How can it disappear out of thin air?
In fact, he was not the only one who disagreed. Everyone present had the same idea to some extent.
In the first two years, they might have been nervous and watched diligently, but after that, especially in recent years, when they successfully took over all the black markets and became the only dominant company, they no longer had the mentality of being prepared for danger in times of peace.
After all, who would be so desperate as to rob and destroy their lair?
If such a ruthless person really came upon us, even if he buried the person, it would only be a grave mound on the hillside south of Xiaohou, and it would still create a little wave, right?
"If there really is someone with this thing, you'd be scared!"
"Crazy, you really want to go back?"
Seeing him stand up and slap the hands behind his back on the table, the person who had been silent couldn't help but speak.
"Normally it's fine, but today the situation isn't right. You should go back tomorrow, otherwise it will be hard to explain to your brother and the others when they come back and see that you're not here."
"Damn, you think I'm happy to make this trip every day, but my child is seriously ill."
Several of them were making quite a lot of noise, and when they got excited they banged their hands on the table, which gave Suning, who was hiding in the dark, a direct opportunity.
Seizing the opportunity, Suning, who had already entered, found the warehouse that was locked with several big locks as mentioned by several people.
He took out a handy tool from the tool room and quickly pried open all the locks with the sound of loud banging on the table.
He didn't care what was inside and emptied it all out without even looking at it. Then he walked out of the room and ran outside as fast as he could.
"No, hurry! There's movement outside!"
"Who the hell did this?"
The open door, the broken lock, and the empty warehouse!
Several people were so scared that they broke out in cold sweats. They took out their weapons and roared with gritted teeth.
"Find it quickly!"
So many things disappeared in less than a minute?
How many people and how big a ghost does it take to accomplish this?
They didn’t know whether Big Brother believed it or not, they only knew that if they didn’t catch the person and the thing was lost, they would have to die!
Happy Chinese Valentine's Day, my dears! Is it too much to ask for votes? Hehehe, I love you~
