C97 (2/2)

Hearing that, we immediately walked towards the direction of the sound.

In a corner of the freezer was a metal door, but it was locked.

Seeing this, Hua Zi walked forward without a word to display his expertise.

In a few minutes, the lock on the iron gate was unlocked by Wah Zi. The door was pulled open by a large plate, and a flight of stairs that led downwards was revealed to us.

The iron door was locked. Where was Dong Wan'er? Could it be that she was watching us from outside? But why did she spy on us and not show up? With her abilities, even if the four of us were to add up, we might not be her match.

Just as I was thinking about this, Big Board and the rest of them ran down the stairs as if they were cats that had caught sight of a fish. As it was pitch black below, I also saw that Big Board and the rest had pulled out a fist-sized bead from somewhere!

”What are you doing?”

”Hehe!” I won't tell you that it's the Night Pearl I obtained during this expedition! ”

F * ck, this brat had actually unknowingly plucked the Night Pearl from the roof of the Lan Kingdom's Imperial Advisor's remains. Moreover, he had been hiding it all this time without making a sound!

”Your family already has so much money, what do you need this for? ”Why don't you give it to me!”

At the sight of the pearl, Huai Zi revealed an expression of greed, and he immediately rushed towards the board, and before the board could react, he pounced on the board. Then, the sound of the two of them fighting started to come out from the underground passage.

I was rather puzzled and speechless that the two of them could have such a good time in this environment. He could only walk over and snatch the Night Pearl from their hands, ”Stop arguing! It's more important to be serious now. When we get back, you two can do whatever you want! ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw Miao De, who was standing behind us, gesture at us to be silent. Upon seeing this, we all instantly became calm and collected!

All of a sudden, the entire underground passage had become silent. Only the electric fan in the freezer above his head was humming.

The entire passage looked very long. After it quieted down, we could faintly hear a sound that sounded like iron chains being dragged on iron gates from the depths of the passage. Afterwards, we heard the sound of iron chains dropping to the ground and the sound of iron bars being pushed open!

This sound is exactly the same as when I opened the door on the construction site. Could it be that there's an iron gate in front of us and someone was opening the door just now?

But when we came down earlier, the iron gate at the entrance of the basement was obviously locked from the outside! Could it be that there were other entrances? Or could it be that the sound wasn't made by a human?

When I thought of the place we were currently at, I couldn't help but feel a chill run down my spine. However, this fellow, as if he had seen a treasure, immediately turned on the lighting on my phone. When we weren't paying attention, he immediately ran towards the direction of the sound!

The heck, looking at his brainless appearance, I can't help but want to slap him to death! However, the situation is a little strange, so we can't leave him alone. After looking at each other for a moment, I also prepared to follow him from behind!

However, before I, Hua Zi, could take a step forward, Miao De suddenly pulled me from behind. ”The one behind seems to have caught up!”

Hearing that, I immediately looked back vigilantly. As expected, the feeling of being followed appeared once again. However, even after we waited for a long time, no one came down from above. Furthermore, the feeling was getting fainter and fainter, as if the person who was monitoring us was not planning to come down and leave.

The heck, why did the other party keep keeping an eye on us but not revealing himself? What is the other party's motive?

Puzzled, I turned my head to ask for his opinion. After all, the police have a keener sense of smell than we do.

However, when I turned around, there was still the shadow of Hua Zi! Other than me and Miao De, the entire underground tunnel was empty without a single person!
