Chapter 227

Mei Qian washed his hands and returned to the garden. He saw that a curtain had been set up in front of the pavilion, and the TV series "Killer Diary" was playing on it. Not only were there bullet screens, but there was also a row of data listed next to it.

Then I remembered that today is the finale of the TV series, and the laser projector must be prepared for the celebration party.

However, when he took a quick look, he found that the food and wine had been served, but Lin Xiuyuan, half the master, was not there, and even Ning Chi was nowhere to be seen.

He asked Director Li who was staring at the on-demand volume, but all he saw was confusion on his face, and Zhu Ning next to him pointed in a certain direction.

It turned out that a waiter came over. Lin Xiuyuan suddenly said that he had something to deal with and left in a hurry.

As for Ning Chi, no one found out when he left.

After learning all this, Mei Qian showed a thoughtful look on his face, but he did not go there immediately. Instead, he looked at the dishes on the table one by one. When he noticed a thick soup in the middle of the table, he frowned.

Wrinkled, he turned to Director Li and others and said, "A bug fell into the soup. You can't drink it anymore." He picked up a bowl next to him and dropped it directly into the soup.

After scanning the rest of the dishes, Mei Qian followed the direction of Zhu Ning's finger while everyone was stunned.

The structure of this manor was not complicated. Soon, he came to a small door with a curtain that said "No visitors allowed to enter."

He easily saw the scratches that had just been carved on the door. He looked left and right cautiously, and when he saw that there was no waiter around, he opened the curtain and walked in.

An alley-like passage formed between the two houses, with carts and a bunch of restaurant supplies placed on both sides. However, it was very quiet inside, and there was no busy scene as expected.

He walked all the way into the still steaming kitchen and found that the fire on the stove had just been extinguished, the hatchet was standing on the cutting board with half-cut eggplants underneath, and there was no one around.

Following Ning Chi's mark, Mei Qian opened the back door of the kitchen and discovered that it was a garden full of vegetables.

The surroundings were still quiet, and apart from the greenery all around, the only things that caught the eye were the towering walls on the left and right and a lonely tile-roofed house right in front.

Mei Qian's ears were very good, and even though he was far away from the tile-roofed house, he could still hear the slight knocking sound.

Without any further hesitation, he walked over with long strides.

The door of the tile-roofed house was open, and Ning Chi could be seen groping back and forth from a distance.

Seeing him, Ning Chi in the room quickly straightened up.

"Brother!" He looked anxious and a little frustrated: "Just now, a waiter came and secretly said something to Lin Xiuyuan. I listened carefully and only heard the word "police". I felt something was wrong, so I said something secretly to Lin Xiuyuan.

I followed him. Then I saw him leading a group of people into the house. When I got closer, they had already disappeared."

"A secret passage!" Mei Qian frowned and quickly scanned the room.

I knew that Lin Xiuyuan should have entered the secret passage in this room.

Fortunately, he was careful to prevent the other party from opening the door. Unexpectedly, he gave up before the police entered the scene.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on the empty museum shelves. He took two quick steps and squatted down. He took out a tissue from his pocket, put his hands on it, lifted something up, and began to observe it carefully.

Ning Chi had been following him, and when he saw him picking up a strange-looking thing from the corner, he couldn't help but look at it intently.

This thing fell in the corner, seemingly forgotten in a panic.

It looks like a wine glass, but it is too big, larger than an adult's fist. The whole body is as white as jade, and the body of the cup and the cup base are wrapped in a golden metal like a vine, as if it is made of gold.

The tall stem is also much thicker than a normal red wine glass, and the connection with the glass body is inlaid with several red gems, which are extremely dazzling under the sunset.

"I really hope this is just a prop for the crew." Ning Chi stared at the wine glass with wide eyes, and sighed with a complicated expression after a long while. As an assistant, he and Mei Qian watched the series "The Killer's Diary" together, and then combined

From the previous conversation between the boss and Zhang Yu in the car, he naturally knew what this thing could be.

Mei Qian also showed a fierce look on his face. He carefully placed the wine glass on the museum shelf, and then took out his mobile phone: "Hey, Zhang Yu, what did you do? Lin Xiuyuan ran away from the tunnel without anyone knowing that he was discovered.

Already."

"What?" Zhang Yu's exclamation came from the phone.

"You can arrest people directly. I found a golden wine cup made of skulls." Mei Qian said in a low voice.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then he said: "Protect the evidence, I'll be there soon."

Mei Qian did not finish his words: "Also, there is something wrong with the soup on the garden table. You can take it back for testing."

Regardless of what Zhang Yu said, he quickly hung up the phone. Then, he turned around and walked towards a large floor-to-ceiling vase in the corner, hugged it with both hands and twisted it gently.

The Eight Immortals table facing the door began to slowly slide outward along with the floor below, revealing a cement step below.

The secret door opened slowly, and when Mei Qian reached the entrance, the steps were just big enough for one person to enter.

Ning Chi couldn't help but curiously looked inside. At this moment, Mei Qian's ears suddenly twitched and she hurriedly pulled him back. Following a series of sound, dozens of black lights shot out from the secret door.

The shiny crossbow arrows shot straight into the rafters.

It wasn't over yet, this mechanism turned out not to be a one-time thing, and several rows of crossbow arrows were shot out right after.

For a moment, there was only humming in the room.

When the surroundings were completely quiet, the roof, doors and windows of the tile-roofed house had all been penetrated by crossbow arrows.

Mei Qian glanced at Ning Chi and saw that his expression was relatively calm, so he picked up a crossbow arrow and weighed it with his hands to confirm that it was a modern product. It seemed that Lin Xiuyuan and the others were quite cautious and had set up a mechanism here in advance.

To deal with the pursuers. If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid they would have been shot into a sieve.

After confirming that there was no longer any danger, Mei Qian stood at the entrance and looked down.

It was not pitch black as imagined, but light came out.

Mei Qian walked down a few steps and found that the steps were relatively long, but with good eyesight, he directly saw the carved stone bricks at the bottom.

"Tomb bricks?" Mei Qian had seen the ancient tomb, so he could tell at a glance that the passage underneath was not so much a secret passage for escaping, but rather a modified corridor from the ancient tomb.

After seeing everything in front of her, Mei Qian already had a guess in her mind.

The entire manor should be built on an ancient tomb. They even installed fluorescent lamps on both sides of the wall for lighting. Is this restaurant just a cover-up? The real purpose of this group is to rob the tomb?

He suddenly thought, since the undercover Wuwang Zhao Jun is here, does it mean that the owner here, or Lin Xiuyuan, is related to Wuwang?

Originally, Mei Qian didn't want to get into trouble, let alone worry about the police.

But since the other party is a member of the Wuwu Organization, and he has actually seen the wine glass made of the girl's skull, he has to get involved in this matter.

Thinking of this, Ning Chi was left waiting for the police to arrive with a resentful look on his face, while he jumped into the passage...

I originally planned to write two more chapters while I was in good condition, but something happened and I had to write the rest tomorrow.
