Chapter 90. Unexpected Development

The maze where the electricity was cut off was completely dark, but a few hundred meters away, there were two powerful spotlights that slightly illuminated the surroundings of the maze.

Those two lights are emergency lights. If there is a sudden power outage during filming, they will be automatically activated for emergency lighting.

Xu Mu knows the inside of the maze like the back of his hand. He knows that the light from the outside will penetrate into the maze through the door. If the inside of the maze is dark at this time, the light outside the door is the best exit guide.

From Lin Jing's position just now, he can judge the door that is about to come out. In order to prevent Lin Jing from coming out of the maze, he must enter the maze before she comes out.

Outside the exit on the south side of the maze, there is a pile of magic props covered with cloth.

The lens that Xu Mu used as a partition was stolen from there.

In addition, there is a prop box for escape magic. There is a compartment inside the box. During the performance, the magician hides in the front compartment and locks the box.

When the box is covered with cloth, the magician can take the opportunity to push the partition board and hide in the back compartment, thus completing the escape magic with a blindfold.

Therefore, this prop has two compartments at the front and back, just enough to accommodate two people.

Xu Mu's plan was to make Lin Jing unconscious in the maze, and then carry her into the magic box outside the south gate to hide.

He knew that this batch of magic props would soon be transported by truck to the unloading area at the backstage of the cultural show, because the props were the largest and would usually be placed in the innermost part of the cargo box.

When unloading and waiting for the workers to carry other items, he can take the opportunity to escape.

He has repeatedly verified this plan several times. In order to investigate clearly, he has been transported to other places with the box several times before.

Finally, it is confirmed that there is no monitoring in the unloading area. It is confirmed that the workers and staff will not easily lift the cloth covering the props. It is also confirmed that even if there are one or two more people in the box, the handling workers cannot judge Is it abnormal.

After this series of planning, he thought his plan was perfect.But how could he have expected that a Cheng Yaojin would come out halfway.

All the time he has received information that the relationship between Xiao Yang and Lin Jing is not very good, they just agreed to a marriage contract, they have no relationship at all, even a little bad.

So in Xu Mu's plan, Xiao Yang should retreat with the staff, or continue to stay where he is.

Unexpectedly, he rushed in to find Lin Jing immediately, which was not good for Xu Mu's plan.

In this way, he had to knock Lin Jing into a coma before Xiao Yang found her, and send her to hide in the magic box outside the south gate.

When Xu Mu walked to the door, he heard footsteps not far away. He knew that it was Lin Jing's footsteps. She must have found the direction of the exit based on the light coming in from outside.

In order to trap her in the maze, he closed the exit door, and the footsteps inside stopped suddenly.

He knew that Lin Jing was afraid, and he wanted to use the other party's sense of fear to frighten her so that she couldn't move, so that he could easily take her down.

He put on the red hat hidden under his clothes, and gradually approached Lin Jing. When he heard that there was no movement on the other side, he knew that this trick worked. Lin Jing was dominated by fear and could not move.

Just when Xu Mu was about to approach, Lin Jing suddenly stood up and quickly ran into the maze.

This is not good, what if she meets Xiao Yang inside, facing Xiao Yang who is stronger than herself, his current body is no match at all.

The more you go inside, the more intricate the maze becomes. Lin Jing keeps moving quickly with minimal movement, and Xu Mu even misjudged Lin Jing's moving direction a few times, causing the distance between the two to grow a little further.

When it comes to the part of the honeycomb maze, the difficulty is even greater. If you make a few wrong judgments, you may go farther and farther.

Xu Mu pricked up his ears to listen to the other party's movement, and at the same time followed the direction of the movement.

Suddenly, Lin Jing stopped in her tracks. As soon as Xu Mu heard that the other party stopped, she also stopped to judge what happened.

Then, a man's voice was heard calling Lin Jing's name.

It's Xiao Yang!Unexpectedly, before I could catch up, I met Xiao Yang again!This time the situation is not so good.

Xu Mu kept quiet, silently watching the movement over there.

At this moment, suddenly a bunch of staff rushed in and started shouting loudly, which was even more unexpected. Didn't he just send these people away, why did they come back so quickly, and so many came at once.

Circumstances changed and he had to change tactics immediately.

Lin Jing has already called out his characteristics loudly and asked everyone to hunt him down. He had to find a way to avoid the staff who came in to search and hide the red hat marked with the characteristics.

Relying on his familiarity with the maze, Xu Mu quickly moved towards the pre-set magic lens. He wanted to hide the hat, so that even if he had to search the body at the end, he could successfully get rid of the suspicion.

When he put on the red hat and appeared in front of Lin Jing before, he deliberately lowered the brim of the hat. In addition, his figure was reflected in the mirror, so it was naturally not so clear.

For Lin Jing, she only saw a figure in a red hat, but didn't see the appearance clearly, and all the staff were wearing the same clothes.

So as long as there is no such key evidence, there is no way to prove the appearance of the man in red hat. Even if they are caught later, Lin Jing will not be able to identify who the man was just now.

Xu Mu's time estimate was a bit late, and he had already met the first group of staff who came in before he reached the lens.

When he saw that the other party saw him coming from the opposite direction, he looked a little puzzled.In order to gain the initiative, he hurriedly said to those people.

"This is a dead end, I just hit a wall, I should go in that direction!"

Xu Mu's words successfully explained why he came from the opposite direction, and also successfully dismissed the other party.

Next, he also relied on this method to distract the other staff members he met along the way, successfully hid the hat and ether in the magic lens, and exited through another exit.

I thought I was finally out of crisis and out of suspicion, but I didn't expect to meet the director standing outside as soon as I went out.

"Xu Mu? Why did you come out? Didn't you say that Ms. Lin and Mr. Xiao are not allowed to come out?!" The director's tone was reproachful.

"me"

Xu Mu's brain was spinning rapidly.

"There are enough people inside. I think we still have to repair the circuit first. I have passed the electrician certificate before, so I am going to the electric room to have a look."

The director thought for a while and said, "Okay, then you go and wait!"

Xu Mu just breathed a sigh of relief, but was suddenly stopped by the director again.

"Just now someone came out from inside and said that a suspect wearing a red hat had sneaked in, so I deliberately guarded here."

"Just in case, let's do a regular body search."
