After making sure that neither Guo Ping'an nor Su Xi behind him could see him, Liu Manman ignored the rules for using walkie-talkies and directly called Deng Jingliang in a low voice into the air.
"Xiao Liang...Xiao Liang..."
There was no response from the other end of the intercom.
Liu Manman's heart suddenly sank, and her back began to feel numb.
The miniature intercom equipment used by her and Deng Jingliang can be said to be among the best among civilian intercom equipment except for its poor battery life.
Needless to say, it is small in size and difficult to be discovered even if it is worn. At least so far, people on the island have probably not discovered that the two of them can broadcast live broadcasts through intercom equipment anytime and anywhere. This is why Liu
Manman dares to show the reasons for his indifferent character.
Of course, Cheng Yu knew, but Liu Manman took the initiative to tell him.
The most reassuring thing about this set of intercom equipment is that after one party sends a signal, it can determine whether the other party is on.
But now, after Liu Manman called Deng Jingliang, he discovered that Deng Jingliang's intercom device was on.
Turning on the phone means that the earphones are in the ears, and once Deng Jingliang hears it, no matter what situation he is in, he can at least find a way to make some response. All he needs to do is press his finger on the call button.
Unless, his hands have lost their freedom, or are completely occupied, unable to touch the button.
Being unable to touch the buttons with both hands can of course be divided into many situations. It could be that Deng Jingliang is dead, in a coma, his hands are tied, or he is in a fierce battle with someone, etc...
But except for the last one, all the others seem to be able to declare that Deng Jingliang is basically a dead man.
Currently, two of the people on the island are at the beach. Cheng Yu and Liu Manman have just separated, and only Xie Yanwen and Deng Jingliang are left.
Whenever Deng Jingliang falls into any kind of situation, almost only one person can do it, and that is Xie Yanwen.
Liu Manman is not so naive as to think that Xie Yanwen knocked Deng Jingliang unconscious or tied him up just to torture him. This is not the case in movies. Ninety-nine percent of the kidnappers and murderers on the screen died from talking too much or not making quick decisions -
—You catch the protagonist and just shoot him. Why do you have to torture him? Then you give the protagonist the opportunity and time to fight back.
In reality, especially on this island, if a person is knocked unconscious or tied up by another person, there is only one outcome, and that is to die neatly.
In fact, there is no plot like being kidnapped at all. The only scenario is to kill the killer directly after being knocked unconscious. The two people who have died now actually died in this way.
Thinking of this, Liu Manman suddenly became anxious and wished he could spread his wings and fly directly over the dense trees on the island to the villa.
But soon, Liu Manman calmed down again.
She asked herself, do I have wings?
No.
So I couldn't fly over those woods directly to the villa.
She asked herself again, is there any point in being anxious?
No.
Because now no matter whether Deng Jingliang is dead or alive, she can't change it.
Finally, she said to herself that Cheng Yu had rushed back to the villa as quickly as possible. With his footsteps, he might already be standing in the villa now.
If Deng Jingliang is dead, then no one can save him, but if he is not dead yet, Cheng Yu can already save him.
After thinking of this, Liu Manman finally calmed down a lot. She was just praying silently in her heart, praying that Cheng Yu could arrive in time and that Deng Jingliang would not fall into despair.
At this moment, Cheng Yu, just as Liu Manman expected, had already entered the password on the door and pushed open the two doors.
Inside the villa, there was silence, without any sound.
"Old London!" Cheng Yu shouted.
There was no response in the huge villa.
Cheng Yu felt strange and uneasy.
It has been almost an hour since Deng Jingliang left the beach. Since he did not reappear at the beach, he must stay in the villa.
Although Cheng Yu did not call Deng Jingliang's name, if Deng Jingliang were here, he would have followed the call, or at least responded.
Of course, the more direct one is Old London. The half of Old London just said that there is still half of Old London in the kitchen. But obviously, Cheng Yu's call should have received an immediate response from Old London, but it did not. This means that Old London
London must not be in the villa.
Xie Yanwen didn't respond, which didn't mean anything. Whether he was present or not, he usually wouldn't pay attention to other movements in the villa, unless the movements were directed at him.
However, as long as the condition that Old London is not present is met, it is equivalent to meeting the condition that he can kill people without restraint, especially knowing that everyone else has left the villa.
"Deng Jingliang!" Cheng Yu shouted loudly. He still wanted to confirm whether Deng Jingliang was in the villa.
There was still no response, and Cheng Yu was quite helpless.
Walking quickly towards the stairs, Cheng Yu crossed three steps in one step and soon reached the second floor.
Cheng Yu did not go in the direction of Deng Jingliang's room on the left, but went straight to Xie Yanwen's room, and then knocked on Xie Yanwen's door.
Or to be more precise, Cheng Yu was not knocking on the door at all, but smashing it.
While banging on the door, Cheng Yu shouted: "Xie Yanwen, Xie Yanwen!"
Unfortunately, there was still no response from the entire villa, and the bad feeling in Cheng Yu's heart became more and more intense.
In fact, to be honest, Cheng Yu is not too worried about Deng Jingliang. Although there are talented players like Sammo Hung among the fat guys, for most hindsight, Deng Jingliang may not be able to kill Xie Yanwen directly like Cheng Yu, but he should
It’s hard not to be Xie Yanwen’s opponent.
Moreover, Deng Jingliang requested to return to the villa, and it would be impossible for Xie Yanwen to know about it in advance. Therefore, this can almost eliminate the possibility that Xie Yanwen will try to attack Deng Jingliang. Even the probability of a sneak attack is almost non-existent.
But Su Xi is allergic to ultraviolet rays. She can obviously solve the problem by returning to the villa to rest and wait for the sun to set before replacing the two people. However, Deng Jingliang insists on coming back to help her get medicine. This is somewhat unreasonable. Especially Cheng Yu.
He knew very clearly the relationship between Deng Jingliang and Liu Manman, and Deng Jingliang had even had the slightest idea of orthopedics, so it was impossible for him to be so flattering to Su Xi, so Deng Jingliang's behavior made people feel a bit weird.
.
According to common sense, Deng Jingliang may have wanted to take this opportunity to come back and kill Xie Yanwen.
Of course, there are still many unreasonable things here. For example, it was broad daylight. Deng Jingliang wanted to reduce one of his competitors, but Old London was in the villa. How could he ensure that he would not be noticed by Old London?
Another example is that Xie Yanwen is a powerful housekeeper. He stays in the house all the time and has no unnecessary communication with other people. Let alone Deng Jingliang, even Su Xi or Liu Manman may not be able to make Xie Yanwen feel confident and bold to open the door. Deng Jingliang has no chance to make a move.
It's really too slim.
And so on.
But this is the only reason that can explain why Deng Jingliang volunteered to come back.
Unless, he knew that Old London would leave the villa at a certain time, giving him time to act.
Unless, he still had a way to get Xie Yanwen to walk out of the room on his own initiative, and with a thunder blow, Xie Yanwen was eliminated from the game without much resistance.
Of course, if you plan carefully and prepare in advance, this may not be impossible.
That's why Cheng Yu was worried. He was not worried about Deng Jingliang's safety, but worried that he had killed Xie Yanwen and would eventually be arrested by Old London as the murderer.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, after they have basically identified Su Xi as the murderer of Bai Xiaowen, Deng Jingliang believes that getting rid of either Guo Ping'an or Xie Yanwen will completely change the situation on the island. So.
He decided to kill Xie Yan no matter what, even in front of Old London
Wen, he was betting that even if he was captured by Old London, Old London would not execute him, but would at most just imprison him in isolation, etc. In this case, according to what Liu Manman said to him, Cheng Yu would help her, then Cheng Yu
Yu and Liu Manman only need to kill Guo Ping'an, and the final bonus will definitely belong to Liu Manman.
With 100 million US dollars, it is impossible for Shi Lei to make everything that happened on the island public to the public when he returns to land, right? Then, Deng Jingliang may not have a chance to escape the sanctions of the law.
Of course, this was just an extremely wishful thinking, but Cheng Yu felt that with Deng Jingliang's brain circuit, he might not think so.
There was such a loud banging on the door that Cheng Yu's voice almost became hoarse from shouting, but the door remained motionless and there was no response at all.
Where has old London gone?
Cheng Yu decided to go downstairs to take a look. Although Old London No. 3 and No. 4 were missing, No. 1 and No. 2 should be back soon. He wanted Old London to open Xie Yanwen's door. He could almost conclude that something must have happened inside the door.
something.
After going downstairs, Cheng Yu rushed into the kitchen and quickly found the mechanism to open the small door at the back of the kitchen.
After pressing the button, the small door slowly opened, but Cheng Yu lay at the entrance of the cave and stared for a long time, but he could not see the figure of Old London on the road. Even Cheng Yu shouted many times, but he could not get a response from Old London.
In desperation, Cheng Yu had to return to the second floor. The difference was that this time he ran to Deng Jingliang's door and knocked on his door.
There was still no response, and Cheng Yu fell completely into an inexplicable emotion. This uneasiness coming from the unknown was really terrifying.
Just when Cheng Yu was at a loss what to do, he suddenly noticed a thread in the corridor. It was very thin and fell on the floor. You couldn't find it if you didn't pay attention.
