Chapter 26: Playing hide-and-seek with my aunt

As he walked closer, he saw a broken slate carved into the trunk of the giant tree. The slate had half an inch and was filled with incomprehensible words. He followed the Blood Crusaders here and saw a little bit of it.

Jiao was not very sure. Now when he walked to the giant tree, he could clearly see the stone slab hidden under the purple vines wrapping around the trunk of the giant tree, and knew that he had read it correctly.

After a quick glance, he confirmed that he could not understand the words on the slate, so he gripped the Mad Wolf Sword and tried to dig out the slate. It turned out that it was easier than he thought. As soon as his hand touched the slate, the slate disappeared.

[You get ‘Disappeared History 5’] Following a prompt sound, open the inventory again. You will see that this stone slab has appeared in the inventory.

Tang Feng checked that there was nothing left here, and decided to show it to Tang Yingying or Mo Xiaotie when others came online in the evening, feeling that they should be able to understand what was written on the slate.

He glanced at the time and found that it was already lunch time in order to cause trouble for the Blood Crusaders. Tang Feng simply went offline and waited to see what equipment the Hydra had dropped when he logged into the game in the afternoon.

After leaving the game, Tang Feng got up from the bed in the room prepared by Tang Min. It was obviously not the first time he had quit the game. Every time he left the game world and returned to reality, he still felt a sense of unreality.

After sitting on the bed for a while, I got used to it and then put down the gaming helmet.

"By the way, how can I get lunch?"

Tang Feng left the bed and suddenly thought that his aunt was at work. Tang Yingying was eating at school and he had nothing to eat. Just as he was about to look for something to eat in the thing called the refrigerator, Tang Feng suddenly noticed that Tang Min and Tang Yingying were not at home.

, now he is the only one in this family, so...

His eyes couldn't help but look towards Tang Min's master bedroom.

Last night Tang Min was on the phone with his father, and at the end of the conversation he mentioned his mother, whom he had not seen since he was a child. He asked where his mother had gone, and his father just said that she went far away. Now I heard that although he

The newly recognized grandpa hinted that he would know when he should know, but he desperately wanted to know what happened to his biological mother. Is she dead or alive? If she is dead, who killed her, and who is the murderer now?

Where.

Know now is a good opportunity.

After much hesitation, I still couldn't resist the urge. I tiptoed towards Tang Min's bedroom, lightly touched the door panel with my shoulder, and felt that it could be easily opened without a lock.

I went in cautiously as if someone was watching at home, and I saw that the layout inside was very simple and warm, no different from the master bedroom in ordinary families.

Tang Feng wasn't sure he would find clues here, but he still wanted to give it a try.

Instead of immediately rummaging through the box like a thief, he just stood at the door and gently closed the bedroom door with his heel, carefully examining the place.

I feel like the most likely place for my aunt to hide such a thing is that it is really in her bedroom, only under the bed, in the closet and on the ceiling.

Tang Feng checked the traces here and confirmed that there were no traces of movement on the ceiling. The possibility was not high. The height under the bed was very low, making it difficult for a person to get in while lying on his stomach. Moreover, some sundries that had not been used for a long time were placed there, causing mold inside.

The smell and dust were so strong that it was covered with spider webs.

I can be sure that if my aunt had something related to clues and put it here, she must have taken it out and looked at it last night. So it is most likely that it is in a few closets here.

Tang Feng immediately opened the closet and rummaged through it to see if there were any hidden compartments. If no hidden compartments were found, everything should be restored intact without leaving any flaws.

But I have searched all over and found nothing.

"Did I think wrong?" Tang Feng couldn't figure out this question and wondered if he had thought wrong from the beginning. My aunt didn't leave any relevant clues here at all.

Just when he was about to give up and leave the bedroom, his hand was about to touch the door handle when he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

"This cabinet?"

I didn't realize it when I first came in, but after rummaging around, I found that the inside of the wardrobe was lighter than it looked from the outside. Suddenly I thought of a possibility, so I opened the wardrobe again and knocked on the wooden board on the inside of the wardrobe.

Bang! Bang!

There was a very hollow sound, and the inside of this wooden board was actually empty!

I hurriedly looked for a joint nearby, it was easy to find, and buckled down the wooden board. Suddenly, an iron box appeared in front of me. There was a twisting cylinder on the box, and a circle of Arabic numerals were written around the cylinder.

There is also a keyhole on the top.

Seeing this iron box, Tang Feng laughed.

"Sure enough, there is."

He recognized this as a safe, but it was more advanced than the ones he had seen in his hometown, and the cracking method was more complicated. He breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the landscape painting hanging on the wall of the double bed, glad that he would know what he wanted to know soon.

But at this moment, my keen hearing heard the sound of footsteps outside the door. I quickly determined that this sound was the sound of my aunt wearing high heels walking on the tiled floor outside. Soon there was the sound of a key entering the keyhole and turning the door lock.

Then I heard my aunt shouting: "Fengfeng, I'm back to cook for you. Aren't you hungry?"

Tang Feng opened the door a little and saw Tang Min put down his bag and walked to the kitchen and knocked on the door of his room twice. Maybe he didn't hear the response and said to himself: "Weird? Could it be that he is still playing games? This child has been

I was led astray by Yingying when I came here."

Tang Feng did not expect that his aunt would come back at this time. If she found him in her bedroom, she would not be able to explain it. Even if he was deceived, she would be more vigilant.

He quickly restored everything, and when he heard that Tang Min had entered his room, he said strangely: "It's weird, where did this kid go? He's not in the room either. Could he just slip out of the window to play again?"

The sound finally appeared at the window, and it can be judged that Tang Min was looking downstairs through the window.

Tang Feng knew this was a good opportunity, so he immediately slipped out of the bedroom and just found a place to come out casually.

But just as she was about to move, Tang Min was faster than her. She had already come out of his bedroom and came over here.

Tang Feng was anxious, knowing that as soon as she opened the door, he would have no place to hide.

One last look at the locked window in the bedroom, knowing that he could not tolerate any hesitation. He immediately opened the window and jumped out. At the right time, the bedroom door rang, and Tang Min's voice came: "Strange, didn't I close the window when I went out?"

He also stretched out his body to look outside the window, then took it back and closed the window again.

Tang Feng clung to the wall outside the window without daring to breathe, knowing that as long as Tang Min looked up just now, he would have no reason to explain.

Now that it was safe, I happened to see that the window of his room was still open. I immediately climbed over the wall and jumped in. I immediately left the room and went into the toilet without stopping.

"Fengfeng?"

The sound of the toilet door closing still startled Tang Min, who called out to Cisuo in confusion.

"Auntie, it's me." Tang Feng was sweating profusely. It wasn't because he was tired, but because he was completely nervous. He could feel that his aunt was good at martial arts, and she was better than him. If he wasn't careful, he would be exposed.

"Why didn't you reply when I called you just now? I thought you were not at home." Tang Min complained, and also said: "Come out soon, I will cook for you. I have to go to work later."

"Thank you, auntie."

Tang Feng felt that this made him more nervous than challenging the boss in the game. In the game, if you die, you will be resurrected, but if you are discovered here, you are really dead. He quickly calmed down and looked in the mirror to make everything return to normal.

It made my aunt suspicious. Then I went out and saw my aunt busy working in the kitchen.

Tang Min noticed from the corner of his eye that Tang Feng finally came out, and said to him: "Why did you stay in the toilet for so long? You won't answer even if I call you? You can't... Also, you have reached this age. But don't do it too often.

, it’s very harmful to the body.”

Tang Feng was confused and couldn't understand what his aunt was talking about. However, he took a peek at her bedroom and knew that the answer he wanted was probably in the safe, and he needed to find a way to open it.

Tang Min didn't notice Tang Feng's actions, and turned her back to him and said, "Please bear with me this afternoon. Tomorrow is Saturday, and Yingying can play with you. I also want Yingying to take you out and get to know you better."

The surrounding environment. You can go to school next week, and your classmates will take care of you then. If it doesn't work, you can still go to your grandpa."

"Well, I understand."

Tang Feng withdrew his thoughts and stopped thinking about the safe for the time being. He knew that opening the safe required a password, and this one also required a key. He needed to find the key before doing so, and he also needed to prevent his aunt from finding out and making a copy.

"It's getting late, I'll make something simple. I'll cook a big meal for you when you come back in the evening."

"Thank you, auntie."

Tang Min smiled and took off her apron and placed it on the high-backed chair next to the dining table. It was obvious that she came back early on purpose to make lunch for him and to go back to work quickly.

Seeing two fried poached eggs and a fried sausage-like thing on the plate in front of him, Tang Feng moved his index fingers. Although it felt simple, it smelled delicious.

Tang Min also picked up her bag and was about to go out and said: "If you are still hungry, there is milk in the refrigerator, the one in the white box. There are also some snacks on the table in Yingying's room, you can try it."

"Um."

Tang Feng responded and watched Tang Min go out. Only when the door was completely closed did he feel completely relaxed and his body suddenly fell softly on the high-backed chair.
