Gao ting immediately agreed to Lu Xin’s suggestion and found a solution.
She had a discussion with the hotel and changed rooms for everyone.
This Inn had a large shared bed, and it was packed enough to accommodate thirty to forty people.
More than half of the drivers were sleeping in the shared house, so they could just come back directly. The few outsiders who were originally living in the shared house were replaced by sister Gao with other standard rooms in the convoy and moved out immediately.
When the old drivers fearfully took their luggage and came to the shared house, everyone looked at each other and felt an unspeakable depression. “Could it be that some powerful killer came in and … Kill them?”
“If he was an assassin, it would be fine, but I’m afraid … I’m afraid he was dragged away by a ghost?”
Under the dim yellow light, someone kept looking around nervously, afraid that the person beside him would suddenly disappear.
What he was more afraid of was that the person who had disappeared was himself.
There were also people who couldn’t control their mouths and discussed in low voices. However, no matter what they said, they felt that it was somewhat unreliable.
“Lu … Brother Lu, this matter …’
Gao ting and Lu Xin stood at the entrance and asked hesitantly.
Usually, she was the head of the team who kept her word and had the absolute say in this team. But now, she felt that she couldn’t do anything and had to ask Lu Xin about everything. She felt a little uncomfortable. However, she had already witnessed how Lu Xin dealt with the brain-like monster. Furthermore, she had received a lot of help from Lu Xin, so she had no choice but to ask.
I haven’t found the reason for their disappearance. I can only give you a suggestion for now.
Looking at his serious expression, Gao ting felt nervous and quickly said, “”What suggestion?”
“Call the police!” Lu Xin said.
Gao ting’s expression turned strange.
“Calling the police is the most reliable way,” Lu Xin replied seriously. If we have people in Green Harbor to deal with this kind of thing, there must be people in the central city as well. If you call the police, perhaps the special clearance Department of the central city will come over. Maybe they can solve this problem.”
“This …”
Although Gao ting didn’t know much about the special Investigation Department, she still nodded her head hard. “Alright,” he said.
In fact, as they were born in the wilderness, they subconsciously did not trust the administrative office and the security Department of high wall city. Just like how she always subconsciously felt that the security Office and the administrative office should be in the same group as Zhao Hui and the others. If she called the police, she might fall into their trap. However, she trusted Lu Xin more, so she gritted her teeth and accepted his suggestion.
After such a strange thing had happened, he didn’t feel at ease to let her go out alone, so accompanied by two people, he ran to the front desk and borrowed the landline from the fat lady boss. He called the guard Hall and got the promise of the other party to come immediately.
The group of people then returned to the shared house and waited patiently.
However, they didn’t know if it was because the central city guard station’s reaction was too slow or something else, but they waited for a long time and no one came.
Outside, the night had already gradually enveloped the area.
“What’s going on?”
“Should I call him again?”
I’ve called, but no one picked up after that. Why don’t we just ask someone
“Who would dare to go out in this state?”
They waited and waited, but no one from the security Department came. The group of experienced drivers could not help but become anxious again.
Such a thing had already made people feel uneasy, but night had already fallen.
is the efficiency of the central city so low? ”
Lu Xin shook his head and muttered to himself, ” this is not the case in Green Harbor.
He had thought about whether he should go directly to the special
Investigation Department. However, if he left, the fate of the convoy could not be guaranteed. Secondly, when the people from qingang contacted him, they had also told him not to contact the special Investigation Department in the central city. To a certain extent, the aptitude users from the high-wall cities would be on guard when they entered other cities.
In particular, he still had a set of information on the supreme brain in his hands, which was even more difficult to expose.
“I have to be prepared to deal with these things myself .
Lu Xin pondered for a moment before coming to a decision. He turned to Gao ting and the others.”You guys stay alert and close the doors and windows.” close the doors and windows … Will it be useful?”
The old drivers expressed their doubts.
it should be useful, unless the other party is really a ghost .
Lu Xin pondered for a moment. also, for safety’s sake, there are a few ways we can protect ourselves. For example, we can tie everyone’s hands together with a rope. This way, we won’t suddenly lose anyone.
second, you can go outside and dig up some soil, sprinkle it on the surrounding ground, and check the footprints …
When everyone heard his words, they immediately had a pillar of support. They jumped up one after another, divided into small groups, and found ropes to dig.
Lu Xin watched as they made their preparations, then nodded and turned to Gao ting.
“You guys stay here, I’ll go out for a while.”
I need some private space. I need to think about it …
“A private space?”
Gao ting was taken aback as she looked at Lu Xin worriedly.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
Lu Xin understood what she was worried about and chuckled. “If something really comes to me, it’ll be easy to deal with.”
Although Gao ting couldn’t dispel the worry in her heart, she still nodded
silently.
Lu Xin nodded at her with a smile and left alone.
He returned to the standard room that he had been staying in. When Gao ting changed to a shared bed, she had already moved out of the standard room. However, perhaps she had considered the fact that Lu Xin was different from the others, so she didn’t cancel the room. However, without old Zhou and little Zhou, the room was unusually quiet. After turning on the light, the light bulb hanging in the air seemed to be blown by the wind, gently swaying in the room.
“Squeak .
It was the sound of Lu Xin sitting on the bed.
He took out his phone and called the staff of the office in qingang, but he couldn’t get through.
Or rather, there was no signal at all.
Lu Xin pondered for a moment before placing the phone back into his backpack. He crossed his arms and cupped his chin in his hands as he fell into deep thought.
He sat quietly for a long time. The night sky outside was getting darker and darker.
The night breeze quietly whirled through the courtyard.
Lu Xin waited for a long time, but nothing unusual came to him. He couldn’t help but feel bored.
He could only think about it himself. There was no news from the office until now. Could he have disappeared?
what happened now should be caused by the incident in White Tower town, right?
Han Bing had already warned him before that he needed to be careful of the other party’s attempt to silence him.
In that case, if the other party had made a move, it made sense that they would attack the drivers first.
Firstly, these drivers were already within their scope of silencing. Secondly, they could also test him.
Of course, he didn’t care. But how should he deal with it?
In the past, he could at least ask han Bing when he encountered such a problem. However, he could only think about it himself now.
Moreover, her mother seemed to be quite good at finding people, but she was not around now.
“Yes .
Lu Xin was silent for a moment before he lifted his head. A pale shadow was hanging from the ceiling, half of it hidden in the darkness. “Sister, didn’t you notice anything just now?”
Lu Xin asked unwillingly. What if his sister accidentally saw it? “If I had seen you, I would be talking to you with a toy in my arms.” The younger sister hugged the shrieking chicken and pinched it expressionlessly. Then, she said, ” but now I think it’s very fun. There were a few times in the middle that I felt like I saw something, but when I looked at it seriously, I couldn’t see it, so I don’t know if I saw it.
“Are you talking about tongue twisters?”
“If only mom was here,” Lu Xin sighed.
The younger sister glared at Lu Xin and pinched the screeching chicken.
Lu Xin ignored her and looked down at his own shadow. As there was a yellow light bulb hanging above his head, his shadow was only as bright as the bottom of his feet. When Lu Xin looked at his shadow, a pair of blood-red eyes seemed to have appeared in the shadow as well. They looked at each other, and after a long silence, Lu Xin said, “”Did you notice anything?”
“Hehehehe .
A hollow and dry laugh rang in his ears. it’s very easy to level this Inn to the ground …
“So, you didn’t find anything either?” Lu Xin shook his head helplessly.
The shadow was speechless.
Lu Xin shook his head helplessly and muttered, “”lt would be great if mother was here.”
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward. Whether it was his sister who was hanging from the ceiling, or his eyes that were hidden in the shadows, they all looked at Lu Xin in silence. Lu Xin also looked at them innocently, but there was more or less a hint of disdain in his eyes.
In addition, it was a little awkward.
“It looks like he won’t come to me …”
After sitting for a few more minutes, Lu Xin looked out the window expectantly, but eventually lowered his head in disappointment.
Suddenly, a series of panicked screams rang out in the distance, followed by the sound of someone running in large strides.
Little Zhou’s voice soon sounded like she was crying. Oh no, brother little Lu, just now … Someone has disappeared again!”
“What?”
Lu Xin furrowed his brows and quickly stood up. He then followed the man to the shared house.
At this time, the room was in a mess. The rope that was tied around everyone’s wrists was still intact. There were even a few more round bags on it, floating and drooping. However, the people who were tied up earlier had disappeared.
The floating soil on the ground was also disheveled by the footprints. Everyone was walking on the floating soil in a panic, looking around. Some people even went under the bed.
When she saw Lu Xin, Gao ting hurriedly said, “”Just now … We’ve been sitting here all this time and nothing happened, but I think … He felt a little uneasy in his heart, so he asked sun gouzi to call out the name again, but he didn’t expect
… I didn’t think …”
when we arrived, there were 30 people, but after counting just now, there are only 27 people left.
“Three more are missing?”
Lu Xin raised his head and looked at the man in surprise.
They were all in the same place, staring at each other. How could someone disappear?
Gao ting nodded hard. yes, three more. And we … she said. I don’t even know when it went missing!”
At this moment, one could clearly hear the trembling in her voice.
[ I recommend a book, Xinfeng’s ” I cultivate martial arts to be able to deliver a critical strike “. A book written by a not-so-serious author is definitely not-so-serious, but it will definitely be interesting.. If you’re interested, you can read it! ]
