Chapter 347 Cao is gone!
The night was peaceful.

Maybe there are no ghosts of Boss Liu's family here at all, maybe they were too scared to come in when they saw the talisman array at the door.

All in all, a peaceful night passed.

In the morning, I opened my eyes with the sound of birds chirping outside and sunlight streaming in through the window.

Walking out the door, I just saw the old bird coming out of the master bedroom next door.

The old bird yawned and said good morning to me, and we went downstairs together.

"How did you sleep?" I asked Lao Yang.

"It's pretty good!" Lao Yang said, "I feel like I slept until dawn!"

"Me too!" Fang Weiran stretched his waist and said: "In the city, there is noise every day, and I can't sleep! It's very quiet here, and I sleep very comfortably. There is no noise at all. I sleep so comfortably!"

We washed our faces with the water we carried with us, then sat around and had breakfast.

Breakfast is bread and milk, and a few braised eggs.

I took two bites of the bread and stopped suddenly: "That's not right!"

"What's wrong?" Lao Yang stuffed a marinated egg into his mouth and asked vaguely.

"It's been a long time, why hasn't Cao Yi woke up yet? She must have slept too hard!" After a while, I remembered that Cao Yi hadn't woken up yet.

"I'll go and see! You know, women are lazy animals!" The old bird patted the bread crumbs on his hands, whistled and walked towards the innermost servant's room.

Lao Yang drank the milk and said, "She still doesn't get up when the sun is drying her butt. It's not like this in the past. She wakes up earlier than anyone else!"

As soon as Lao Yang finished speaking, he saw the old bird rushing out of the aisle in a hurry, knocking over a chair at the entrance of the aisle.

Seeing Lao Niao's anxious look, Lao Yang frowned and said, "What are you doing? Are you going to hell?"

The old bird took a breath and said intermittently: "Cao Yi...Cao Yi is gone!"

what? !

Lao Yang crushed the milk carton in his hand with a bang, and the bread in my hand also broke in half. My heart trembled suddenly, Cao Yi disappeared? !How could Cao Yi disappear? !

Fang Weiran said: "Isn't it? Could it be that she was taken away by a ghost?"

"Impossible!" I said categorically, I am still very confident in the talisman array I set up. With the meager skills of Boss Liu's family, don't try to take Cao Yi away from under my nose, not to mention that they even entered the gate. Not coming,.

"Go and have a look!" Lao Yang greeted us, and ran to the innermost servant's room.

Pushing open the door, Cao Yi's backpack was still there, but Cao Yi was nowhere to be seen.

I looked at the window, and it was locked from the inside. It couldn't be opened from the outside, and there was no sign of prying it open.

The room was also neat and tidy, with no traces of fighting or struggling.

Did Cao Yi go out alone?
Impossible, this early in the morning, where is she going alone?
"Fang Weiran, come out with me to look for it!" The old bird also thought of this question, and greeted Weiran above, and the two hurried out of the gate and searched around the villa.

I searched around the room and found nothing suspicious, so Lao Yang and I exited the room.

As soon as I exited the room, I saw another door at the end of the corridor.

The door was hidden in the darkness, so I hadn't seen it before.

Lao Yang and I looked at each other, and Lao Yang quietly pulled out his gun, and we both leaned against the walls on the left and right, like two geckos, moving quickly and silently towards the door.

When he came to the door, Lao Yang suddenly stopped, raised his left hand, and motioned for me to stop.

Then Lao Yang winked at me, and cast his gaze to the ground.

I lowered my head and took a look, my heart was beating wildly, and there was a faint trace of blood flowing out from the crack in the door.

I was startled suddenly, as if I had been stabbed in the heart, and it hurt.

Cao will be fine!Cao will be fine!
I pursed my lips tightly, and my little heart jumped up uncontrollably.

My heart was full of fear. I admit that I was a little scared. I was afraid that Cao Yi's body would lie in front of me after the door was opened.

Lao Yang signaled me to take a step back, then took a deep breath, kicked the door open with his kick, his body was like lightning, and he rushed in with his gun first: "Don't move!"

Lao Yang roared angrily, quickly scanned around with his gun in hand, and found that there was nothing unusual behind the door, so he slowly lowered his hands.

At this time, I also rushed into the door.

Then, I was slightly taken aback.

Behind the door is not a room, but a spiral staircase leading underground.

The space under the stairs is dark, nothing can be seen, the darkness is surging below, and there is a pool of blood that has not yet solidified at the door.

Lao Yang turned around and took out a small flashlight from the living room. He held the flashlight in his left hand and held the gun in his right hand. We formed an angle with each other and carefully walked down the stairs.

The space below is a bit damp, and it turns out that there is a basement below.

There are some sundries piled up in the basement, covered with dust, and there is a musty smell in the air.In the beam of light, you can still faintly see granular dust floating.

My heart sank gradually, all the secrets were sparse, we didn't expect that this villa had a basement, the murderer must have sneaked into the villa from the basement, and kidnapped Cao Yi without anyone noticing.

What did the murderer want to do when he kidnapped Cao Yi?
The death pictures of those beautiful models appeared in front of my eyes, and my heart trembled crazily.

Lao Yang seemed to understand my thoughts, and comforted me, saying: "Cao Yi was taken away, which means that Cao Yi is not dead yet, so there is no need to be pessimistic. If the murderer really wants to kill Cao Yi, he can directly kill Cao Yi in the servant's room." Do it, why bother?"

I sighed heavily: "If there is something wrong with her, I really can't forgive myself! I was too careless, and I didn't know that there is a basement here!"

Lao Yang said: "You say that we are all responsible, and I am even more responsible, because I didn't even see this basement downstairs!"

We walked through the dark basement, opened the basement door, and found that the exit of the basement was in the back garden of the villa.

Lao Yang and I crawled out of the basement with disheveled faces, and just as we climbed out, we saw Lao Niao and Fang Weiran, who were hurriedly preparing to go back.

"Old bird!" Lao Yang called out to them.

The old bird and Fang Weiran stopped and turned to look at us with surprise: "Huh? Why are you here?"

Lao Yang wiped the dust off his face and said, "Damn it! So there is a basement here! How is it? Did you find anything?"

The old bird said: "I'm going to look for you! Come and have a look, there are a bunch of messy footprints and two strange numbers!"

The old bird took us to the edge of the back garden. As the old bird said, there was a string of messy footprints on the ground here.In the center of the footprints, there are two blood-red Arabic numerals, which look very dazzling.

I knelt down, dipped my hand into a little blood stain, put it on the tip of my nose and sniffed it, my heart was a little wider: "It's not blood, it's paint!"

The old bird pointed to the two numbers on the ground and said, "Damn! These two numbers must have been left by the murderer. What does he want to convey to us?"

Lao Yang frowned: "Could it be some kind of password?"

The old bird shook his head and said, "I don't think so! Why did the murderer leave us a digital code? Why is it so fucking hard to kill someone?"

"Maybe it's a digital language!" Fang Weiran said, "Just like 1314 is often used on the Internet to express a lifetime, and 520 is often used to express I love you!"

The old bird struggled for a long time according to Fang Weiran's idea, but couldn't make a complete sentence: "Your method seems to be wrong!"

Fang Weiran said: "In my opinion, it is important for us to hurry up and find Cao Yi! Maybe these two numbers have no practical meaning at all, but are the murderer's scribbles? Or is the murderer trying to mislead us and delay our time?" !"

"Wait!" I raised my palm and stared at the numbers on the ground with piercing eyes: "It is impossible for the murderer to leave a digital code here for no reason. The reason why the murderer did this must have some meaning!"

"I agree with Xiaogu's statement!" Lao Yang said, holding his chin, "I think the murderer might want to use these two numbers to convey something to us! What exactly is he conveying?"

I squinted my eyes, my thoughts turned sharply, and I blurted out: "Coordinates! These two Arabic numerals are probably coordinate numbers!"

I jumped up all of a sudden, delighted with my discovery.

In the past, when we went out for archaeology, we often needed coordinate positioning, so we often saw such numbers.And when I saw these two numbers, I also naturally came up with the idea of ​​coordinate numbers.

"The number on the left is the longitude, and the number on the right is the latitude. These are the latitude and longitude coordinates! Lao Yang, quickly take out your mobile phone, and you can locate the location by querying the latitude and longitude with your mobile phone!" I said excitedly.

Lao Yang quickly took out his mobile phone, and according to my guess, input these two numbers, and the map showed that it was Wuyin Island where we were.

Lao Yang was startled suddenly, and carefully looked at the location: "The coordinates seem to be in the center of the island!"

"Quick! Cao Yi is likely to be caught by the murderer and taken to the coordinate point!" I was startled and angry, unable to hold back my eagerness, grabbed Lao Yang's cell phone, and ran quickly while looking at the map.

"Follow!" Lao Yang and the others quickly followed me, running all the way to the center of the island.

The morning breeze brushed my cheeks, and my heart felt like it was on fire. If Cao Yi hadn't had an accident, I didn't even know that I would miss her so much!

Cao Yi, you will be fine!
You will be fine!

My figure was walking through the woods. Lao Yang and the others didn't dare to relax for a quarter of an hour.

Passing through layers of dense forest, a small red dot appeared on the map, indicating that we had arrived at the coordinate position.

I stopped and looked up, only to see a hill standing in front of me.

After waiting for a while, Lao Yang and the others followed up. The three of them were so exhausted that they were out of breath, beads of sweat dripping down.

"I can't do it anymore, let me take a break!" The old bird sat down with a bang.
