Yin Yang Tomb Raider

Chapter 432 Empty Wall, Arm

The Mo Bai in the photo is a common butcher. In reality, Mo Bai has an indescribable melancholy, a coldness that can’t be hidden in his eyes, and a trace of tiredness. When he saw us, he couldn’t help but froze for a moment. Then he left coldly, and the manager and assistant behind him followed quickly. Lao Jiu and I looked at each other and followed immediately. Mo Bai stopped and looked back at us: "It's you, Mr. Du found it." Helper, I want to chat with you alone."

Just as the manager was about to speak, Mo Bai roared like an angry lion: "I don't even have the right to speak? You are not my nanny, we are just colleagues, leave me alone!"

Those people would not listen to him. Fortunately, Du Qiu came out to smooth things over and motioned for us to leave with him. Leaving aside the staff, Mo Bai had an indescribably excited look in his eyes. He has his own lounge. After entering, he He even took the initiative to pour drinks for us, which is commendable, not as arrogant and frivolous as imagined, but a real young man.

"The matter between me and Cheng Yang is a little unclear." Mo Bai said: "Mr. Du contacted me on the phone. Mr. Jiang's death cannot be related to Cheng Yang. Even if he died, he would not hurt him." others, let alone murder."

This sounds a bit wrong. Hearing what he said, the two of them felt a little sympathetic to each other. Didn't they fight?I looked at Mo Bai suspiciously, and Mo Bai said: "You must have heard that I had a conflict with him and started fighting in the practice room. Later, he was fired and I stayed to debut, but the reason for my fighting with him is absolutely certain. It's not because of conflict, but because I'm angry that he endured all the injustice, but he told me not to mind my own business, I was so angry that I fought with him."

"What's going on?" I asked.

"Cheng Yang and I came in at the same time. His family background is average, so he doesn't talk much at ordinary times. This circle is like this. If you have money, you will have resources. If you don't have money, others will look down on you." Mo Bai Pursing his lips, the corners of his mouth showed an angry look: "So the trainees in the same period always bully him. Everyone trains at the same intensity, but they always let him go out to buy supper. When everyone is running errands, after practice, everyone Is it fair to make an appointment to go out for dinner as if he doesn’t exist, but let him stay and tidy up the practice room?”

"It's not fair, so what?" Lao Jiu said, "You can't see it?"

"Of course I can't see it." Mo Bai said: "People must never underestimate themselves. If they are underestimated, others will step on you even harder and step you into the dust. After I persuade him in the practice room Don't do this kind of thing anymore, if there is anything unreasonable financially, you can come to me, but he got angry instead."

"You have hurt his self-esteem." I said, "It takes a lot of patience for a person who deliberately underestimates himself to lower himself into the dust. The pain hidden in his heart is always expanding, waiting for an explosion. Timing, sympathy, your sympathy ignited his anger."

Mo Bai lowered his head and murmured: "I didn't expect his reaction to be so violent. I was too young at the time, and I didn't understand that my words and actions were a kind of harm to him. I will always remember the way he stared at me and asked me Do you also look down on him, I shouldn't be angry and say that I look down on people like him..."

Mo Bai said that his eyes were red, then he took a breath and wiped his hands: "The two of us fought because of this matter, and you should know what happened later, because my family background was left behind, and he was sad. After leaving the company and later died in an accident, I received a letter from him, which contains a lot, you can read it.”

Mo Bai took out a letter. The handwriting in the letter was so strong that it almost cut through the back of the paper. It contained his true thoughts. Patience is to welcome a bright day, but that conflict destroyed all of Cheng Yang's plans, and his debut was hopeless. , Lost the hope of starting over from scratch, he didn't blame Mo Bai for all this, he only blamed himself for not being able to bear it, blamed himself for not completely suppressing his emotions, he thanked Mo Bai for taking care of him in the company, because this is the only And hope that you don't look down on your friends.

I noticed some traces on the letter paper, which I could imagine were tear stains. As for whether it was Mo Bai’s or Cheng Yang’s, I don’t know. Not happy."

The melancholy in the eyebrows explained everything. Lao Jiu and I looked at each other. Both of us had no problem, and the conflict between the two had nothing to do with the water stains. Why?Where do we start from.

"Cheng Yang was staring at the wall in a daze for a few days when he was determined to leave the company." Mo Bai murmured, "He also said that he saw an arm. When I thought about it afterwards, he was in a trance at that time. If I If I can care more, maybe I will be fine, I want to be a good person, but I haven't been a good person to the end, such a good person is a wicked person, right?"

Mo Bai raised his head, met our sharp eyes, couldn't help shrinking his body, and said with a wry smile: "You also think I'm hateful, I jumped out to show off, but I didn't do anything well."

"No, no, what did you just say?" I asked, "Cheng Yang once stared at the wall in a daze, saying he saw an arm?"

"Yes, he said it just the day before he left the company." Mo Bai said, "I have seen it, but there is nothing."

"Take us there, where did he say that." I immediately stood up and said, "The precise location, think about it again, any topic related to the arm is fine, as long as it is relevant!"

Mo Bai was dumbfounded, he must have listened to Du Qiu’s words and wanted to prove his innocence, but he didn’t know that his words brought us new clues. In the practice room, he clearly pointed out the location Cheng Yang saw, because Cheng Yang’s words were too bizarre, So he paid extra attention, and repeatedly asked for confirmation. He told Cheng Yang that he hadn't seen it, but Cheng Yang's reaction was relatively indifferent. He just said "um", and then there was nothing...

"It's right here." Mo Bai stood in front of the wall, measured the distance, and pointed out precisely that the same location is clearly the same location!
A bold idea came to my mind, and I whispered it into Lao Jiu's ear, and immediately got his approval. We left in a hurry, ignoring Mo Bai behind him, and he quickly chased him: "Do you know something? ?”

"Probably." I said, "That thing might have something to do with Cheng Yang's death. We're going to find those sick people."

Those sick guys don't live in the same place, so we went straight to the door after we got the materials. If the manager didn't stop us, the excited Mo Bai would come with us and get in the car. Lao Jiu said, "That kid can help you!" We are very busy."

I was busy starting the car, and Lao Jiu said again: "Is it true that people who are celebrities are always the same as the former and the latter? That kid doesn't look like the shadow I saw just now. He is much more mature than before. Kind of cynical."

"Probably, the image in front of people is packaged by the company." I planned to go to the furthest one first, from far to near, "How much of myself can I keep? There are too few celebrities before and after."

The car slacked, and the clues that were finally caught would never be easily let go. Just like this, all the sick people visited once, which can be said to be very rewarding. These people are in good condition, but they all have one point. There were dizzy situations in the practice room, and one of them also said that he once saw an arm appear on the wall, but it disappeared after rubbing his eyes, and he was never seen again. Soon after that, he fell ill and had to stop. train.

"Lin Tianyi, don't tell me you have evil spirits," Lao Jiu kept muttering on the way back: "Their symptoms are the same, all of them are dizziness, lack of energy, body weakness, and they can't even practice dance steps. After leaving the company, they will gradually recover on their own without medication. Oh, hey, if it has nothing to do with the water stains in the practice room, I cut off my head, there must be something tricky there."

"Jiang Shan died under the mirror. If you don't mention the mirror, she is actually embedded in the wall, isn't she?" I said while holding the steering wheel: "Arm-shaped water stains appeared on the wall. Above, it’s also a wall, can you dig it out and have a look?”

As soon as the words fell, Lao Jiu looked at me with incredible eyes: "Are you crazy?"

"There may be something hidden in it—such as a corpse." I said seriously: "This is a very good time, you know? Du Qiu asked me for something, and the practice room was already sealed, so he would dig the wall when he went back." .”

I did what I said, and immediately asked Tao Ran for support, and then discussed with Du Qiu. They agreed to do it after midnight, and the other people would be dismissed at the boundary time. We agreed immediately, and at the same time required Du Qiu and Meng Luo to be present.

At night, we started to smash the wall with a hammer in our hands. At the place where the arm-shaped water stain was, when Lao Jiu went down with the hammer, the wall cracked. Lao Jiu pulled a brick and said: "Ge Laozi, This is cutting corners, it really is hollow."

Du Qiu looked embarrassed: "The wall has two layers, the first layer is the old wall of the previous building, and a special layer was added later for sound insulation."

"The previous wall?" I wondered, "This means that the company's building was refurbished from the old building?"

"Although it is refurbished, the cost is not low." Du Qiu said: "The original structure cannot be changed, and safety must be ensured."

With a flashlight in his mouth, Lao Jiu jumped directly into the hollow wall, stretched his left and right arms, and immediately touched the solid wall. Lao Jiu made a vague sound, thinking of the flashlight in his mouth, he immediately transferred it to his hand. Above: "Strange, except for this piece which is empty, the left and right sides are solid, which seems to be deliberately hollowed out." "

Munro sniffed: "It smells a little weird."

After all, the wall has been closed for a long time, so it is inevitable to have a dull musty smell inside, but there is also some special smell in the musty smell, there is a faint fishy smell...
