Demon detective

Chapter 210 Breaking Dawn
  Only then did Xu Zhen realize that the reason why his breathing became easier and his mind gradually recovered was because the temperature in the secret room had dropped and was no longer as oppressive as before.

It seems that the fire outside has burned everything that can be burned, and either the fire has become smaller or has been extinguished.

The sound of axes and chisels became more and more obvious. It was obvious that the enemies outside were demolishing the house and were determined to open up the secret room.

"Old mother," Sima Xin asked Lian Ji worriedly, "Is your secret room strong enough to be broken down?"

"I don't know either!" Lian Ji expressed helplessness.

But as soon as she finished speaking, there was a crashing sound from somewhere above her head. It was obvious that someone had smashed the roof somewhere.

The terrifying sounds and the falling dust above their heads made everyone in the secret room extremely nervous. Jing Liang and others had already drawn their swords and prepared for battle.

Xu Zhenze finally realized that he was shirtless while he was only chatting with his beautiful sister, so he quickly put on his clothes.

"Listen to me." At this time, Dongfang Meiyan walked to the center of the secret room and said to everyone in an awe-inspiring manner, "When the roof collapses, I will be the first to rush up to attract their attention, and you will open the stone door. escape!"

After hearing Dongfang Meiyan's words, everyone felt even heavier, and they all understood that a disaster was coming.

Xu Zhen found that there was nothing in Dongfang Meiyan's hand. The pebbles must have been polished off long ago.

Can she rush out with just a pair of fleshy palms?
  As if she had telepathy, Dongfang Meiyan glanced at herself deliberately, her eyes seeming to say: Xu Zhen, whether you can rush out depends on you and me!
  Ugh……

Xu Zhen couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Dongfang Meiyan was obviously determined to die.

Ning Zangfeng was not a fool. There must have been a dragnet set outside the secret room. No matter it was above his head or through the stone door, it was impossible to break out.

However, it was already a dead end, and no matter how smart Xu Zhen was, he could not break it.

Negotiate?
  No, Ning Zangfeng had been fooled by Xu Zhen once before, so it was impossible for him to agree to the negotiation.

As soon as the secret room is broken, he will definitely go all out to kill Xu Zhen and others, and will never give them another chance.

How to do?
  How to do?
  Xu Zhen looked at the escape cigarette in his sleeves and began to wonder if he could use these things to help him break out of the encirclement.
  And just as he was inspecting it carefully, a hammering sound could be heard very close to his head.

Boom!
  thump...

The voice trembled, the secret room shook, and people were frightened.

Fortunately, the stone slab was thick and strong, and there was no cracking after the violent hammering.

Looking at it like this, it is impossible for people outside to collapse the stone slab in a short while.

However, something unexpected happened.

After being hammered several times, Dongfang Meiyan was suddenly startled, and then showed a surprised expression, as if she was very surprised.

"what happened?"

Xu Zhen noticed something unusual and hurriedly asked.

But Dongfang Meiyan immediately raised her palm to signal Xu Zhen to shut up.

Seeing this, everyone else also became quiet.

thump...

thump...

The hammering sound became clearer and clearer, and Xu Zhen realized that the hammering sound was rhythmic, long and short, light and heavy. Why did it sound like Morse code?
  Is it...

"Quick!" Dongfang Meiyan couldn't hold it back any longer. She quickly ran towards the stone door and signaled to Lian Ji, "Quick, open the stone door!"

what?
  Everyone was shocked and didn't know what Dongfang Meiyan wanted to do.

"No," Sima Xin quickly stopped him, "If you go out at this time, you will definitely become a hedgehog!"

"Boss!" Jing Liang and others stood up and asked for orders, "Let us charge first!"

"No need," Dongfang Meiyan said excitedly, "The Chief of Police is here, this is the code."

what?
  Everyone was shocked again, and they all looked at Jing Liang and others.

Because everyone found that Jing Liang and other detectives from the Super Detective Division also looked confused.

If the sound of hammering is the secret signal of the Chief Inspector, then what...

Soon enough, Dongfang Meiyan found the switch on the side of the stone door without Lianji's reminder, and turned it on without hesitation.

Rumble.

The heavy stone door made a muffled sound and then opened.

Oh...    In an instant, everyone's hearts were in their throats.

Although Dongfang Meiyan opened the door, she was not in a hurry to go out. Instead, she ducked to the side of the stone door, as if waiting for something.

Sure enough, within a moment, a faint call came from outside the stone door:
  "Where's the beauty?"

This was a deep and refined female voice. The voice seemed ethereal, but it had invisible penetrating power, allowing everyone in the secret room to hear it clearly.

"mother!"

But seeing Dongfang Meiyan shouting excitedly, she then stepped out of the stone door.

This……

After Dongfang Meiyan went out, the others looked at each other in confusion.

During this period, only Xu Zhen guessed some clues.

Because he knew that Dongfang's beautiful mother was called Dongfang Enchanting, and Dongfang Enchanting was the chief catcher of the Divine Catcher Division!
  No way?
  A quick calculation showed that it was already dawn outside. They had only suffered in this secret room for one night, and the reinforcements... the reinforcements had arrived?

Xu Zhen hurriedly came to the stone gate, not daring to go out rashly, so he could only listen attentively.

But all that could be heard was Dongfang Meiyan's excited laughter.

At this time, Sima Xin and others also came to the door. Sima Xin pushed his mouth hard at Xu Zhen, apparently making Xu Zhen scream twice.

Ok!

Xu Zhen cleared his throat and shouted outside:

"Hey... Sister Meiyan, Sister Meiyan... what's going on outside?"

Soon, he heard Dongfang Meiyan's echo:
  "Oh, it's okay, it's okay, you guys, come out!"

This……

Xu Zhen and others looked at each other again. Finally, under the signal from Xu Zhen's eyes, Jing Liang and others were the first to walk out of the stone gate.

Xu Zhen, Sima Xin, Lian Ji and others followed closely behind.

Even so, Xu Zhen still prepared the escape cigarette in his cuffs in case of any eventuality.

However, when they walked out of the secret room one after another, his worries disappeared.

At dawn, a faint red light illuminates the sky, making the cold night no longer dark.

The air was filled with a strong smell of burning, and wisps of black smoke were everywhere, whether far or near.

The kitchen connected to the secret room had long been burned into ruins. Xu Zhen and others came out of the secret room into the open air.

What Xu Zhen didn't expect was that there weren't many people outside.

Dongfang Meiyan was in the open space on the left, talking to a Taoist nun wearing a Xuanjiao robe.

There is a sedan parked on the right side of the open space, and two bearers are standing next to the sedan.

In the middle, at the bottom of the kitchen steps, stood a bloated man wearing official uniform.

As soon as he saw Xu Zhen and others coming out, he hurriedly greeted them.

However, it was not Xu Zhen who he greeted, but Sima Xin.

"Lord Sima, is it really you? Thank God, you are still alive, alive..."

It was him.

Xu Zhen recognized that this official was none other than Cai Jin, the governor of Daguan County.

"Ah?" Seeing Cai Jin, Sima Xin was also stunned and asked quickly, "Isn't this Mr. Cai? This... what on earth is going on?"

"Ah?" Cai Jin was also stunned and asked in surprise, "This... this question, shouldn't I ask you?"

As a result, just when the two of them were asking each other questions, a scream suddenly came from the crowd:
  "what……"

Everyone was startled and quickly turned around to look, only to see that it was Lian Ji who screamed.

But I saw her looking straight ahead in horror, her eyes were red, and she was crying loudly: "Demon Tower, my Demon Tower...Where is my Demon Tower!!?"
