I heard that I'm a tomb robber

Chapter 13 Another Coincidence

Chapter 13 Another Coincidence
Zhang Yu was worrying about the fate that the two of them were about to face, when he heard Mei Qian's words, he couldn't help being shocked and looked in surprise.

It's a pity that Mei Qian's face is hidden in the shadows, making it hard to see clearly.

After a long while, he smiled lightly and said, "It's come to this point, if you kill me, even if you get out by chance, how can you explain it to the outside world?"

"Should I just run away? If I sneak into the woods, who can see me?" Mei Qian narrowed her eyes.

"Don't make trouble, now that surveillance is developed, where can you go? You don't want your house deposit and assistant?" Zhang Yu still smiled: "The guy who doesn't hurt people when fighting in the detention center will be a guy who doesn't care about anything. And the outlaws?"

"It's good that you know." After Mei Qian said these words, she pretended not to see the little movement of the other party touching the gun, then turned around again, and continued to knock on the stone door, sometimes sticking her ear to the wall , seems to be listening to something.

Zhang Yu quietly let go of his hand on the holster. He was about to ask something when he heard Mei Qian say: "We may face many unknown dangers in the future, so some things must be explained in advance. I trust your Professional ethics, and I hope you can trust me, believe that I will not run away alone, let alone harm you. No matter how much you doubt my identity, wait until you get out."

Zhang Yu was stunned and asked, "Have you found a way out?"

"Soon." Mei Qian clamped the flashlight on her shoulder, then squatted down, and vigorously knocked on a stone brick with both hands.After a long while, he suddenly smiled: "Sure enough, it's active." He scraped off the soil under the stone bricks with his hands, and his palms sank into a narrow gap.

The other hand reached out to Zhang Yu's eyes: "Where is your key?"

Then he exerted all his strength, leaning on a small key and his right hand, and bit by bit the stone bricks that were several feet square were separated by a few inches.

Seeing this, Zhang Yu also stepped forward to help, and finally, with the joint efforts of the two, he dragged the entire stone brick in.

Seeing the gap that just allowed one person to pass, although his intuition told him that there was no danger on the other side, Mei Qian still covered his mouth and nose first, and took a flashlight to take care of it. Although he couldn't see anything because of the angle, he couldn't feel anything abnormal. , and then slowly let go of the hand on the nose, probably because of the recent earthquakes, the air in a certain part of the ancient tomb has been circulated, and there is no unpleasant smell, so I can't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

Finally, there is no need to be stuck here waiting to die.

After discussing with each other, Zhang Yu led the way and drilled to the opposite side one by one.

"I said, this is different from what I imagined!" After passing through the hole, Zhang Yu said in a complaining tone while patting the dust on his body: "Look at the protagonists in your novels. You can go up and down freely, how can you go through a dog hole?"

"You said it was a novel." Mei Qian crawled over, also disgraced, but he didn't rush to take care of himself, but started to observe the surrounding environment with a flashlight.

This is a small space, and the most conspicuous thing is a four-legged square tripod with a height of two people directly opposite.

Seeing this cauldron, Mei Qian's face froze, and the flashlight shifted away, and she saw a huge sarcophagus next to the cauldron, and there was really a passage behind the sarcophagus.

A few days ago, he just borrowed the "Tomb Raider Diary" from Ning Chi and reviewed it carefully. No matter how you look at it, the arrangement looks familiar.

Regardless of the interior layout or the sun, moon, and star patterns on the cauldron, they are all exactly the same as those described in the novel.

I watched TV dramas at the beginning, so I have a deep memory of this episode, and I kept it when I copied it.

But now the only difference from the records in the book is that there is no passage for the protagonist of the novel to enter here, and there is only one way out.

Wait, if the Broken Dragon Stone is not put down, wouldn't it be...

His eyebrows twitched wildly. Since the other things have come true, there shouldn't be a bloody corpse lying in the coffin, right?

"Is there really such a thing as a blood corpse?" Coincidentally, Zhang Yu seems to be quite familiar with that novel.

"How is it possible?" Mei Qian sternly retorted: "How can there be such a wicked thing in the world? This is obviously a place reserved for future generations to worship. As far as I know, there are such arrangements in large tombs."

Then he ignored Zhang Yu's probing gaze and began to observe and feel around the walls.

For some unknown reason, his trajectory was always far away from the coffin.

In the end, after confirming that there was no other way out, the two walked around the coffin and walked into the corridor.

After some distance away from the stone chamber, Mei Qian, who was walking in front, breathed out quietly. I was really afraid that Zhang Yu would propose to open the coffin for verification. Sad reminder.

The tomb passage they were in was sloping down, similar to the place they fell in, and it was smooth, with neither patterns nor inscriptions.But it was much shorter. Not long after, a gate made of white jade appeared in front of my eyes.

Looking at the statues of evil spirits on both sides of the gate, Mei Qian only felt pain in her head.

"You said, isn't this a coincidence?" Zhang Yu looked weird and joked in his mouth. He went straight to the statue and tried to turn the jade seal in the ghost statue. According to the description in "Tomb Raider Diary", this should be the mechanism to open the door .

However, to Mei Qian's relief, no matter how Zhang Yu changed his direction, the jade seal did not move at all, obviously fixed.

Fortunately there are different places.

"Is this a dead end again?" Zhang Yu frowned and looked at Mei Qian: "What shall we do next?"

"I'm tired, take a few minutes' rest." Mei Qian didn't care about getting dirty, and sat down on the ground. It was strange to say that it was obviously dark and cold here, but fine beads of sweat appeared on his head.

"There won't be seven fake coffins behind the door, right?" For some reason, Zhang Yu was not as worried about how to enter the tomb at this time. He happily shared the cigarettes and sat on the ground after lighting them.

Mei Qian didn't answer, took two puffs of cigarettes, and suddenly asked: "Tell me, how long do you plan to detain someone like me? When will I be free again?"

"It starts in ten years, and the maximum is indefinite. You have to wait." Zhang Yu replied solemnly.

Mei Qian: "..." He doesn't know if it's too late to die now?
Seeing his appearance, Zhang Yu smiled again: "Our police handle cases based on evidence. We can't find any real evidence of your crime yet, but your situation is quite special, and you may have to stay in the detention center for a while."

"What kind of special law? Since there is no evidence, let people go? It's better to be released on bail than now!" Mei Qian frowned, and her tone couldn't help being a little angry: "I'm a little celebrity after all, I've been locked up like this, you guys Are you not afraid of bad influence?"

Zhang Yu didn't care about his attitude, and patiently explained to him.

"Because you are a public figure, you must consciously accept supervision. The law will protect your legitimate rights and interests. But at the same time, the law also has relatively strict requirements for people like you. As a public figure, it has a vital impact on the social atmosphere. Guiding role. Therefore, we must be more cautious when investigating your case. Although there is no evidence of your tomb robbery, there are too many coincidences that happened to you, and it was exposed in the eyes of the people of the whole country. Your case was taken seriously by the higher authorities as soon as it appeared. , it belongs to the key supervision of the Ministry. And what we do has a legal basis."

"Let's talk about your detention first. According to Article 80 of the "Xia Guo Criminal Procedure Law" No. [-], the police may detain active criminals or major suspects in one of the six situations first, and you happen to be in the right place. There are three points. First, there is the possibility of destruction, falsification of evidence, or collusion. Don't stare, in our eyes, you are a major suspect, and we don't know who the accomplice is. Even if you monitor your communications, we can't guarantee you Have you sent out the information? Who would dare to let you go now if you don’t clear up your suspicions?”

"Second, you don't tell your real name and address, and your identity is unknown. This cannot be denied, right? You can't even tell your hometown or your parents, right?
Third, those who are seriously suspected of committing crimes from place to place, committing crimes multiple times, or committing crimes in gangs.Tomb robbery must not be done by one person, right?There are so many coincidences in your novels, is it wrong to say that you, or you, committed crimes and ganged up? "

"But I didn't rob the tomb at all!" Mei Qian sighed, although lawyer Lu Tianlu had also told him about these laws and regulations, but it was a different taste when the police officer who investigated his case said it.

"You don't have any evidence of your innocence, do you? If you can tell your origin, we can definitely find out, and the suspicion will be cleared?"

"Whoever claims to provide evidence, if you say I'm guilty, then you should provide evidence!" Mei Qian snorted coldly.

Zhang Yu still smiled: "Aren't we investigating here? As for the time for detaining you, according to Article 150 of the Criminal Procedure Law, the period of investigation and detention for criminal suspects after arrest shall not exceed two months. However, the case is complicated and the time limit expires. Cases that cannot be concluded can be extended for one month with the approval of the higher-level procuratorate. If no evidence can be found within the time limit, you may be released on bail or acquitted.”

"Of course, depending on the nature of the case, there may also be another situation. Usually it is two months, and the case is complicated and extended by one month. If it is a case involving a major criminal group or a complicated case involving crimes that involve a wide range of crimes and evidence collection Difficult major cases, cases that may be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of more than ten years, may be detained for as long as seven months after the approval or decision of the provincial procuratorate. It can be extended indefinitely. Calculate for yourself how many points do you meet?"

Mei Qian's face turned green when he heard it: "I won't be so unlucky, right?" When he heard the lawyer's explanation, he was full of confidence, because he had never done it before, so he didn't care.

But the meaning of what Zhang Yu said now is that he won't be able to get out for a while?
But Zhang Yu comforted me with a warm voice: "Of course, what I'm talking about is that our police have made a major breakthrough in your case. At present, if no evidence is found, the possibility of you being acquitted or released on bail Make it bigger."

Having said this, Mei Qian was a little relieved.But just when he was going to continue to question.

He suddenly shook the entire corridor, and then heard the familiar "rumbling" sound, and there was another earthquake?
