Without much hesitation, Luo Chao plunged into the pool and began this unique treasure hunting journey.
Cheng Tang on the shore was not too worried. She could see clearly that the depth of the bathing pool was a little more than one meter at most, and she could still expose her head even if she stood down.
However, because the water in the pool is red, it is impossible to see what is under the water. Now Cheng Tang can only wait passively.
Luo Chao, who had just plunged into the water, couldn't wait to search while there was still air in his lungs, and his hands kept groping for the bottom of the bath.
"Huh?"
And when a certain moment came, Luo Chao felt that the fingers of his right hand suddenly touched something soft, which made him feel happy at first.
"This...is this?"
But the next moment, Luo Chao's expression suddenly changed, because when he touched the soft thing, he touched five fingers.
Luo Chao originally thought he had discovered something, maybe the treasure he had dreamed of, but he didn't expect it to be a human hand?
"Could it be that Cheng Tang has also come down?"
I have to say that Luo Chao is quite courageous. After a brief moment of fright, a charming thought suddenly appeared in his mind, and his old face couldn't help but blush.
Luo Chao has always liked Cheng Tang, and after the heroic rescue in the lobby earlier, he could feel that Cheng Tang was also interested in him.
Therefore, even if it is inconvenient for girls at this time, it is not difficult to understand why Cheng Tang chooses to go into the water. This makes Luo Chao's heart shake.
However, dozens of seconds passed. At this time, Luo Chao felt a little out of breath and thought it would be better to get out of the water and take a breath first.
Wow!
The pool water that had just calmed down suddenly surged, and then Luo Chao's head popped out of the pool water, making Cheng Tang on the shore heave a slight sigh of relief.
"Xiaotang, didn't I ask you to wait for me on the shore? How did you..."
Because of the thought in his mind, before Luo Chao opened his eyes and stretched out his hands to wipe the water stains on his face, he already spoke out and changed his name intentionally or unintentionally.
But the next moment, when Luo Chao wiped his face, opened his eyes, and saw the familiar figure on the shore, he was stunned for an instant, and the voice in his mouth stopped abruptly.
Because at this moment, Cheng Tang was standing on the shore, looking at Luo Chao with some expectancy.
There is still a distance of several meters between the two.
"If it wasn't Xiaotang, then that hand under the water..."
A stream of cold air rose from Luo Chao's tailbone and went straight to his head.
He felt completely stunned, and a strong sense of fear instantly enveloped his entire body.
"Luo Chao, what's wrong with you?"
Cheng Tang on the shore saw Luo Chao in a daze and couldn't help but ask, with a touch of concern in his tone.
"This...there is a hand in the water!"
It wasn't until Cheng Tang asked questions that Luo Chao felt that his soul had returned a little.
But his voice was trembling a little, and what he said made Cheng Tang stunned for a moment.
"What...what did you say?"
But the next moment, Cheng Tang's face also became extremely pale.
Because she always felt that there was no third person in this room except herself and Luo Chao.
But now Luo Chao says there is a hand under the water, which means there is a person who has been hiding under the bathroom and hasn't come up for air for so long?
If you include the time they entered the bathroom, at least five minutes have passed now.
No matter how powerful a person is, can he hold himself underwater for five minutes without coming up for air?
"Luo Chao, why don't you... why don't you come up first?"
After a while, Cheng Tang finally came back to her senses. Seeing Luo Chao still standing in the bathtub, she couldn't help but urge him.
At this time, Luo Chao was a little confused, because during this period of time, he thought of another possibility.
"Did something weird really happen, or did Qi Shi deliberately put a prosthetic hand at the bottom of the bath to make me retreat?"
When these two thoughts appeared in Luo Chao's mind, he quickly came up with a guess, leaning more towards the second possibility.
After all, this world is a legal society. In the lives of ordinary people, there are so many strange things happening.
In this case, Luo Chao felt that the hand he just touched was probably a prop prepared by Qi Shi in advance, just to scare him into retreating.
Perhaps most Jinhua employees who entered the room after losing the game had the same idea. They still wanted to find treasures that could make them rich overnight.
If they were frightened when they touched a hand, and those so-called treasures were really hidden in the bath, wouldn't they have entered the treasure mountain and returned empty-handed?
"Xiaotang, let me go down and take a look. Maybe the treasure is very close to us."
Luo Chao gave a simple explanation, and then he plunged into the water again, making Cheng Tang thoughtful on the shore.
However...
Just when Luo Chao made a move, his expression suddenly changed, his whole body froze, and he did not dare to move.
"Luo Chao, what's wrong with you?"
Cheng Tang on the shore once again asked the same question as before.
Because Luo Chao just said that he wanted to go down and take a look, why did there be no action in the blink of an eye?
"There's... a hand grabbing... grabbing my foot!"
Luo Chao's voice trembled again, and this time the touch from his ankle made him feel very clearly, and it was definitely not an illusion.
And if it was just a prosthetic hand, how could it take the initiative to grab my ankle?
The courage that Luo Chao had just felt evaporated in an instant.
What replaced it was an extreme fear that made his pupils constrict.
"Ah?!"
Cheng Tang was also frightened by Luo Chao's words and turned pale. The next moment he shouted loudly: "Luo Chao, come up quickly. Come up first!"
"Yes, let's go ashore first!"
Hearing Cheng Tang's loud voice, Luo Chao finally regained some consciousness, and then kicked his other foot hard on the underwater ground, wanting to escape from the bath first.
With Luo Chao's sudden exertion, his hand seemed to be caught off guard, and Luo Chao actually broke free, allowing him to escape towards the shore.
The entire bathhouse is only about ten square meters, so how big can it be?
With Luo Chao using his hands and feet, he quickly swam to the shore.
At the same time, Cheng Tang had already reached out and grabbed Luo Chao's right hand immediately, trying to use his strength to pull him out of the water. He wanted to leave this place of right and wrong first.
The strange things that happened in this bathtub made Luo Chao no longer have the idea of hunting for treasures. Those were just things outside of him.
