Chapter 261 Alliance
Xia Meng glanced in the direction of the lake, her sight seemed to be able to penetrate the wall. She lowered her voice and said, "The sound came from the lake, and its location is uncertain, as if it is constantly moving."
While constantly moving on the lake, it was still foggy after nightfall. Without any unnecessary explanation, the fat man could make up a rather terrifying scene in his mind.
On the misty lake, there was a female ghost in red whose face could not be seen clearly. The female ghost dances gracefully, babbles, and sings vague but extremely sad songs. The scene is very strange.
“Do you remember?” Xia Meng looked at Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng nodded, "In Xiaoshijian Village, there is also a female ghost in the Hanzhen Lake in the back mountain."
The fat man did not participate in the mission in Xiaoshijian Village, but the doctor came back and told him about the process. The thrill scared Fatty so much that he couldn't sleep well all night.
Especially that ghost likes to break people's necks and then rip off their heads.
In the end of that mission, only the doctor, Xia Meng, and a woman named Li Lu survived.
"Something must have happened in this house, which resulted in the death of a woman. She may have died in the lake, or her body may have been dumped in the lake after her death." Xia Meng speculated. .
"Do you. Do any of you know opera?" The fat man shrank his neck and asked in a low voice with an expression that wanted to see what was going on outside but was still very scared: "As for the music, if you can know what the ghost is singing, What kind of music, maybe we can find some clues. "
Fatty's suggestion is good, but unfortunately, Jiang Cheng and Xia Meng know nothing about opera, but Xia Meng said that after everyone comes out at dawn tomorrow, it can be done. Ask other people.
Hearing this, the fat man's gloomy eyes lit up again. "Yes," he nodded repeatedly, "I think Qin Jian is quite old, he might understand this."
Now At the beginning of the mission, there were only these clues, and further analysis could not reveal anything more. As for the clue newspaper in Xia Meng's hand, Fatty understood it as something like Zhuge's Tips Bag, which should not be opened unless absolutely necessary.
Now their focus has shifted from the weird singing outside to how to spend their first night here safely.
Judging from the current situation, no one should have died in the three rooms for the time being, but something like this happened just after dark, and the night was destined to be long and uneventful.
"I will guard the first shift," Jiang Cheng volunteered. "You go to bed first. I will wake you up at about the time, and then you get up and guard the second shift."
There is a device on the table Melons and fruits On the platter of small nuts, Xia Meng opened one and threw it into her mouth. She patted the crumbs left on her hands, raised her head, stared at Jiang Cheng who was speaking, and said in a disdainful voice: "You don't have to leave a fat man to spy on me. "She raised her eyebrows, "In Crimson We are allies in front of you, and I will not attack you."
"Mengmeng, don't get me wrong," Jiang Cheng explained in a voice that was raised a few degrees: "I'm just worried that you won't be able to control yourself later in the night. Suppress the evil thoughts Me."
Xia Meng grinned when he heard this, his beautiful eyes narrowed, and two cute tiger teeth were exposed at the corners of his mouth. After a while, he suddenly said: "You think you can stop me by leaving just one fat man? ”
She looked Jiang Cheng up and down with undisguised fiery eyes, and then smiled pointedly, "I knocked him unconscious and tied him up," she said with a silky breath, "It's the same."
“Tsk,” just as Jiang Cheng squinted at Xia Meng, thinking about what went wrong recently.
The fat man’s voice suddenly rang out.
"Miss Xia Meng," the fat man who was cowering just now straightened up and said firmly: "I think your step of knocking me unconscious is unnecessary. First, I am not as easy to beat as you think. "Dun, second," the fat man said, "As long as you don't go too far, I won't delay you."
Jiang Cheng narrowed his eyes, and he seemed to have found the reason.
The final result of the discussion was that the two of them took a step back, Jiang Cheng stayed for half the night, Xia Meng stayed for the rest of the night, and the two did not interfere with each other.
As for the fat man, neither of them wanted to take him with them.
So he likes to sleep, and he can sit down if he wants to, but just a little, keep his mouth in check, and don't delay the other person's vigil.
The fat man was very discerning and saw Xia Meng lying down for a while, and after her breathing gradually stabilized, she quietly got up, and then came to the doctor who was sitting not far from the candle.
He stretched his neck and naturally reached out to grab the fruit plate he was eating in front of the doctor. But as soon as he stretched out his hand, he found that the doctor had taken the fruit plate away.
"Doctor," the fat man said after a moment of embarrassment, licking his face: "Don't get me wrong, I was in the Cao camp just now and my heart was in the Han Dynasty." He paused and said firmly: "I did it to confuse her and infiltrate them. Inside."
"Cut the crap. ," Jiang Cheng picked another nut for himself, threw it into his mouth and chewed it, while glancing at the bed where Xia Meng slept, and whispered: "After Xia Meng gets up, keep an eye on her."
Hearing this, the fat man nodded repeatedly, "Doctor, I Don't worry about the night watch."
After finishing speaking, the fat man's expression changed slightly. He leaned towards the doctor again and whispered: "Doctor, I think since the middle-aged man asked us to accompany him, Xia Meng finishes the book, then It means that at least until the end of the mission, we are useful, so I don’t think she will trick us.”
“And there is a deep red person in this book. She attacks us, who can help her deal with Shen. Red?”
The fat man seemed to have thought of something, his face changed, and his voice began to tremble: "You have also seen how evil the taxi driver sent by Crimson is. Such a guy, I think Xia Meng alone "
"Who told you that the driver was sent by Crimson?" Jiang Cheng raised his head and asked.
The fat man was stunned, then he blinked, "Doctor, I don't understand what you mean? This is not like before."
"Everything we know about crimson so far The middle-aged man said all the information, and he even told us the name Crimson, but who can prove that what he said is true?" Jiang Cheng asked.
“What exactly is Crimson? Is it what they say? To exaggerate, we don’t even know whether there is an organization called Crimson.”
Looking at the fat man's mouth, Jiang Cheng knew what he was going to say, so he interrupted first: "If you want to mention that taxi driver, just shut up. If you have to say who sent that driver, then I I can tell you that the most likely possibility is not Crimson, whose existence is still doubtful, but "He glanced at Xia Meng's position with a profound look.
After being stunned for a moment, Fatty's heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly remembered a chicken soup magazine that he had read out of boredom while driving. There was a story in it that said: The fastest way to reconcile with an opponent is to establish a common enemy for each other.
Crimson is exactly that. (End of this chapter)
