Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 18 Need to Outsmart (Part [-])

"This mountain was originally very quiet. It was the first group of people who activated the mechanism that changed the mountain. Then, the mountain changed the position of the entrance according to the time of day to prevent people from entering again. But the mechanism that Gu You touched today must be Instead of being gentle and just repositioning themselves, I suspect they're off the ground now."

The big head stopped throwing stones and asked: "Then, they can't hear us throwing stones?"

Wu Chen looked at the big head and said, "I just threw stones to vent."

"Aren't you hungry?" Big Head couldn't believe it.

Wu Chen sighed, stopped what he was doing and said, "If the ground in the depression hasn't changed, and there are still people on the ground who heard us throwing stones, they might be able to find this wall. They all have swords in their hands, just like you. That being said, finding a crack in it is easier than the two of us."

The big head looked at Wu Chen wonderingly, and asked, "Then are you throwing stones in anger, or are you reminding the people inside? I don't understand."

"All of them, throw them away! There is no other way now."

Luck, you can't see it, you can't see it, you don't know where it is hidden, when it will come out, someone burns incense and prays devoutly, luck may not come, but Wu Chen seems to carry it with him, and after throwing it away for a while, Wu Chen and Datoubian He heard the sound of beating against the wall coming from inside.

Wu Chen couldn't get any closer, so he could only shout with all his strength, "The exit should be near here, you can look for it, cracks are fine, let's get out first."

I yelled a sentence five or six times, but there was no more movement from inside.

Wu Chen anxiously turned around on the spot. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a person standing not far away. He quickly looked over, and saw that person had already stood not far away from them at some point, with a blank expression on his face. He looked at Wu Chen and Datou with straight expressions.

Wu Chen took a deep breath. Even though it was daytime, he suddenly saw a man in black with a stiff face appearing beside him without a sound. He would be startled if he put it on anyone. With a sound, he jumped on the spot.

"He doesn't look like a human being!" Datou hid behind Wu Chen and said tremblingly.

Wu Chen is not afraid anymore, since the big head can see it, then it is not a ghost, but then again, ghosts will not kill him, but this person in front of him will!
Wu Chen saw that the man's hand was still on the hilt of the sword, and his murderous aura slowly spread towards them.

"Ghost Mandrill helped?" Wu Chen asked with a smile.

The man didn't speak.

Wu Chen looked the man up and down, and said:
"You have a lot of dust on your body, and the uppers of your shoes are even more dirty. It can be seen that you have not just gone up the mountain. You can see that you are full of martial arts. If you followed us up the mountain, you would not get so dirty. It should be because you didn't rush out yesterday and stayed in the mountain. One day, it was so embarrassing to eat and sleep in the open... have you been hungry all day?"

The man's eyes showed a fierce light.

Wu Chen added: "You have a human skin mask on your face, which shows how you harm innocent people on weekdays! I'm just curious, why do you have to change into grimace masks at night? Can't you keep wearing a human skin mask?"

The man drew out his sword with a 'cang lang' sound.

Wu Chen waved his hand and said:
"Forget it! If you wanted to kill us, you would have killed us long ago. Why wait until now? If I guessed correctly, are you wounded? You want to capture us both alive, and you know we belong to the Imperial City Division. Naturally, you have some skills, you are afraid that you will not be able to fight with one enemy and two, so keep an eye on us first, and wait for your people to come to help you, so it seems that you are not the only one left in the mountain, am I right?"

The man raised his sword but didn't take a step forward.

"The mask does have this advantage. It can prevent the opponent from seeing your expression clearly. But, I think everything has its own advantages and disadvantages. After wearing it for so long, doesn't your face itch?"

The big head asked curiously: "How do you know it will itch? Have you ever worn it?"

Wu Chen chuckled and said, "I haven't experienced anything? How many people do you think they stayed in the mountains?"

The big head said, "How do I know this? It's definitely not much, but it's not too little."

"I think what you said makes sense."

The man snorted, and finally asked, "How else can you delay?"

"You can continue to keep silent, watching the two of us talking nonsense, waiting for your people to come, isn't it because of my delay that you delay? Now we are just faster than anyone else."

The man chuckled and said, "Your people are all inside, can you get out?"

"Are you expecting them to come out, or are you not expecting them to come out? If they can't come out, it means that it is difficult for you to find the entrance. If they come out, you will die. I can't make a decision for you."

"Smart teeth! It's a pity that I don't live long!"

The big head became anxious when he heard it, and there happened to be a medium-sized stone in his hand, and he threw it at the man fiercely. After a lot of effort, the stone hit the man at the end of the eye, the man groaned and grinned while covering his wound, but he didn't see him take a step forward.

Wu Chen was even more certain that the man himself was seriously injured, and he was only staying to watch over them. There are still people from them in this mountain.

Wu Chen thought that there are two ways to escape, one is that Xu Da brings people here as soon as possible, and the other is that the people inside find the crack and come out, I don't know which one can be faster?
Wu Chen looked behind the man, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Tell me, will the words you left at the foot of the mountain be seen by bad people and then rewritten?" Datou had a rare IQ at home.

Wu Chen frowned and said, "What you said makes sense, then the two of us brothers must take this man's life immediately and run down the mountain to save our lives."

The big head nodded, and asked fiercely: "How to kill? Wipe the neck? Stab the chest? Cut off the head directly?"

"Brother, have you ever thought that all these methods require a sharp knife in your hand, and we two brothers only have hands."

"Then just press down and strangle to death!" The big head made a fierce gesture of pinching.

The man was furious, when had he been bullied like this before, but the wound on his body reminded him, don't move!

Wu Chen frowned and stared at the man's expressionless face. Where the man had been injured just now, he could only vaguely see a gash, but no blood was seen. Wu Chen looked around again and said to the man :

"You were not forced to stay in the mountain yesterday. The mountain is so big, it is very easy to hide a few people, so I deduce that some of the people left behind were seriously injured like you and couldn't get out, and some of them were strong in martial arts. Under the covert surveillance, today our people found the col, you people with normal arms and legs will naturally go forward and gesture twice, and some of them were injured. I can boldly speculate that most of you who are staying in the mountains are injured of!"

The man was wearing a human skin mask, so Wu Chen couldn't see his expression at all, so he couldn't judge whether what he said was right or wrong.
