With him here, I was not in a hurry. I blended my body into the night and lurked very carefully. Chen Xuanyi didn't move at all. I don't know if anyone noticed Hikaru Ichiro's sneaking in like me.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, I saw that Hikari Ichiro had opened the door. He had a thin wire in his hand, inserted it into the door lock, and fiddled with it gently, and the door clicked.
Opened normally outward.
I thought, this guy is pretty good at opening doors. If he has skills, why not become a locksmith?
I ignored my sigh and continued to watch. Under the night light, Ichiro Hikari was as light as a civet. After opening the door, he did not sneak in immediately. Instead, he lay cautiously next to the crack of the door, as if he was watching something. After waiting for a long time, he sneaked in.
A botanical garden surrounded by glass covers.
I was fascinated, suddenly, there was a gust of wind blowing behind me, and then I felt my shoulders sink. I was hit by someone, and I was frightened. I turned around and got an elbow, and the person behind me grabbed my arm.
Say softly in my ear, "Don't move, it's me..."
Chen Xuanyi?
I quickly turned around until I saw Chen Xuanyi's face clearly, then I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "When did you come back?" and you didn't say a word. I was scared to death.
Chen Xuanyi ignored my complaint, but pointed forward and whispered, "Isn't that boy a guest invited by the Li family? He sneaked into the botanical garden in the middle of the night. Could it be that he had other agendas?"
I nodded and said that it looked like that, would you like to follow me and take a look?
We came to the botanical garden for the first time and were not familiar with all the arrangements inside. We said we wanted to rescue people, but we didn’t even know where Zhao Xu was being held. How could we do it easily? Instead of doing this, we might as well follow this Hikari Ichiro.
, sneak into that building and take a look.
Chen Xuanyi frowned and said no, it would be hard to do if someone finds out. I quickly said, if not, you should stay here and wait for me, and let me go up and take a look, in case something happens.
, you can also stay outside to respond.
Chen Xuan thought for a while and agreed, but told me to be careful. I patted my pocket and said don't worry, I'm carrying three Swiss Army knives with me. If it doesn't work, I'll give it a try!
Afterwards, Chen Xuanyi and I broke up and sneaked into the area where Hikaru Ichiro had walked alone, while Chen Xuanyi continued to stay where he was and lurked to inquire about the situation.
It happened to be late at night at this time, and everything in the garden was quiet. Only the chirping of insects could be heard, which made the God-Eating Gu a little excited. It wanted to fly out of my body several times and go to the jungle to find bugs to eat, but it was stopped.
I forced it to stop.
Holding my breath, I also came to the edge of the building surrounded by glass covers. Chen Xuanyi was still observing in the dark, acting as my backing. Seeing that he did not give any warning, I knew that it should be safe here in a short time.
, so he got into it confidently and boldly.
This room is not small. There is a gap of more than ten meters between the top and the ground. It is surrounded by tempered glass covers. The space is also very vast. It is about as spacious as half a football field. There are rows of wooden shelves inside, with shelves placed on them.
It is full of potted plants and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, vying for beauty.
I'm a person with no real sense of life. I don't know these flowers and plants. I just think they are beautiful. I think every flower and plant is worth a lot of money.
Thinking that Ichiro Hikaru was still inside, I didn't dare to relax at all. After sneaking in, I immediately released the God-Eating Gu and let it monitor the surrounding situation for me.
Who knew that the God-Eating Gu had flown around for most of the time, but when it came back, it was buzzing in my ears, telling me that Ichiro Hikari was not in this room.
I was greatly shocked. I had seen this boy come in before, but how could he disappear in the blink of an eye? I was confused, and when I glanced out of the corner of my eye, I found a wooden board that had obviously been pried in the middle of a row of flowerbeds on the left.
As soon as I moved, I touched it carefully, and then I realized that there was actually a cave under the flower bed.
"There is a secret passage..."
My eyes flashed, and I immediately reached over and gently pried open the wooden board, and a dark passage appeared in front of me.
God-eating Gu and I stared at each other for a while, but curiosity finally got the better of us. I decided to take the risk and go down to find out. Maybe Zhao Xu was locked down there.
With this thought in my mind, I immediately jumped into the passage, then held the board with one hand and lowered it gently.
The God-Eating Gu was clamoring to follow me down, but I stopped him. I asked this little thing to fly back to Chen Xuanyi to report the news, so that if there was an unexpected discovery down there, Chen Xuanyi could be prepared in advance.
After sending God-Eating Gu away, I slowly closed the wooden board and was about to turn back and go down the dark passage. However, at this time, I heard a blast of strong wind in my ears. I immediately tensed my back and turned around to look.
, I saw a short knife about seven inches long being handed to me in the darkness, and it was thrust straight into the tip of my nose.
I hurriedly freed up my hands and made a posture like "a boy worshiping Guanyin". I put my hands together and clamped the blade of the short knife. The other party was startled and looked at me with wide eyes, showing an extremely shocked face. Waiting for me to see clearly that
When he saw who it was, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Mr. Hikari Ichiro is so elegant that he sneaked into the botanical garden in the middle of the night to appreciate the flowers?"
Ichiro Hikaru's face was as tense as cold steel, his triangular eyes were slightly squinted, and he spoke in half-baked Mandarin, "Why are you here? Aren't you afraid that I will ask someone to take you?"
I curled my lips and smiled and said that if you have the courage to call someone, you can call at any time. Then I will be unlucky and you may not feel better. I am really looking forward to seeing how you can explain to the Li family that you are so big.
Will appear here in the middle of the night.
After hearing my words, a murderous intent suddenly flashed in Hikaru Ichiro's eyes, but I was not afraid at all and continued to look at him expressionlessly.
I might not be afraid of this person in a close encounter in such a small passage space, and I might not have a chance to use his trick of summoning shikigami.
The two sides looked at each other for a full six or seven seconds. Ichiro Hikaru took the lead to look away and said, "I know why you came here. You must be here to save your friend, that guy named Zhao Xu, right?"
I nodded and said, what about you?
He pursed his lips tightly like a knife and said nothing. He suddenly looked at me, retracted the knife, and then took a breath and said, "I know where that person is being held, and I can take you to rescue him. In return, you
Can't hinder my good deeds."
I smiled and nodded and said yes.
No matter what the purpose of Hikaru Ichiro is to sneak in here, and no matter whether he is really working for the Li family or has some hidden agenda, I don’t care. Anyway, everyone has become a grasshopper on a rope now. Once exposed, who will
Can't leave either.
He put away his sword and glanced at me, "Where's that powerful warlock next to you? Why isn't he here?"
I looked mysterious and said, "How did you know he didn't come? These things are not your business. You just promised me that you would help me save people. Now it's time to fulfill your promise."
