Chen Mu was delighted. He finally found some useful clues in Boss Zhao's room.

At this moment, Chen Mu suddenly heard the chirping of crickets outside the door.

Chen Mu was shocked again, because he knew that this was Tao Tieyi reminding him that Boss Zhao was coming back.

Extremely urgent!

If Tao Tieyi had not followed the plan and provided cover for Chen Mu at the end, Chen Mu would have been in great danger today and would have had to confront Boss Zhao head-on.

Chen Mu could already hear Boss Zhao's footsteps approaching the door quickly.

Five steps...

four steps...

Three steps...

Just as the door was about to be opened, there was a sound of stones hitting the door.

Tao Tieyi took action!

He threw a stone, trying to attack Boss Zhao.

Boss Zhao had bad luck tonight. First he found nothing in the pigpen, and then he found nothing in the warehouse.

It was a freezing night and Boss Zhao walked two kilometers back and forth, feeling as if he was being played.

Boss Zhao was already full of rage at the moment. Just before he was about to go home and open the door, a stone flew out of the pigpen and hit him.

"Oh!"

Boss Zhao shot him without saying a word.

With the experience from last time, Tao Tieyi ran very fast this time.

As soon as he threw the stone, Tao Tieyi ran away in a hurry, and Boss Zhao's bullets hit nothing.

"You bastard! Don't run!"

Boss Zhao shouted angrily and immediately ran out.

Hearing the footsteps getting farther and farther away, Chen Mu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Thanks to Tao Tieyi, Boss Zhao was finally lured away.

Although Tao Tieyi did this, it was also for his own benefit to get clues.

But no matter what, he helped Chen Mu after all. Chen Mu thanked him silently in his heart. There was no need for Chen Mu to hide anything about the clues here.

At that moment, Chen Mu seized the time and quickly flipped through the remaining newspapers.

For every newspaper, Chen Mu looked at the lower right corner and quickly wrote down the contents.

Grasping the key points, Chen Mu quickly discovered the pattern.

Sure enough, there is something wrong with Boss Zhao.

It only took Chen Mu a dozen seconds to finish flipping through the newspaper for the third time.

During this period, two consecutive gunshots were heard from the direction of the pig farm, which made people feel frightened.

After Chen Mu put the newspaper back as it was, he immediately went to the door and opened it from the inside.

Boss Zhao's door has a code, so there's no need to open it from the inside.

Fortunately, Boss Zhao’s password lock is not very advanced and does not have functions such as recording the number of times the door is opened and camera.

Chen Mu escaped from Boss Zhao's room without any danger.

When Chen Mugang was hiding in the bushes, Boss Zhao came back with a shotgun and an angry face.

Obviously, Tao Tieyi ran very fast and made Boss Zhao return empty-handed again.

and many more……

In the moonlight, Chen Mu noticed that there were a few obvious drops of blood on Boss Zhao's clothes.

The blood was very fresh, and it was obvious that it had just been splashed.

Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Tao Tieyi was dead?

The two men had never met each other before, but the other was very loyal and died to protect him. Chen Mu would feel guilty about this.

However, at this time, it was impossible for Chen Mu to go up to Boss Zhao, grab his collar, and ask directly "Is Tao Tieyi dead or not?"

What if I can’t ask?

Then don't ask.

Chen Mu was hiding in the bushes obediently, observing Boss Zhao quietly.

The angry Boss Zhao opened the door fiercely and then slammed it shut with a bang.

After this incident, the slaughterhouse became quiet again.

Chen Mu returned to the players' dormitory along the same route he came.

When Chen Mu returned to the container, Zheng Zetao and Jiao Zhizhi were already waiting there.

The two men were covered in dust and looked dejected.

When Chen Mu saw this scene, he had expected it in his heart, but he still pretended to be surprised and asked:

"Brother Zheng, what happened to you two?"

Zheng Zetao told Chen Mu what happened in the warehouse.

After that, he added: "I guess Boss Zhao is very insidious. The password of the warehouse cannot be wrong even once. He deliberately marked it wrong three times just to make us trigger the alarm."

Chen Mu echoed, "Oh, that's indeed quite insidious."

Zheng Zetao added: "Actually, this is also our fault. We were careless and didn't realize that the password might not be three digits. There might be an 3. We were careless."

Chen Mu: "There is such an explanation? That's really awesome."

Chen Mu never expected that Zheng Zetao had such a strong adaptability that he could actually help Chen Mu to justify himself.

At this time, Tao Tieyi also ran back covered in dust.

As soon as he entered the door, the first person he looked at was Chen Mu.

When he saw that Chen Mu was not dead, Tao Tieyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the person I spent so much effort to protect is still alive, otherwise my risk would have been in vain.

Chen Mu was relieved to see that Tao Tieyi was still alive.

The two of them seemed to have a telepathic connection and were worried about each other's safety.

"You're not hurt, are you?"

Chen Mu stood up and asked. He thought of the blood splattered on Boss Zhao's body.

"It's okay. You weren't caught by Boss Zhao, were you?"

"It was almost there, thanks to you for covering me."

As the two were talking about this, Jiao Zhizhi next to them suddenly made a "huh~" expression.

Chen Mu looked over in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Jiao Zhizhi waved her hands repeatedly, "I thought of the novel I read before, the two male characters in it, um... it's okay, you guys continue."

The corner of Chen Mu's mouth twitched slightly. He looked at Tao Tieyi, then looked at himself.

Chen Mu suddenly felt that this little girl Jiao Zhizhi was quite abstract.

Tao Tieyi coughed and asked, "Do you have any clues?"

"Brother Bao You, I have an important discovery, which is probably related to the captivity of No. 21." Chen Mu said.

Hearing this, the players immediately became interested and came over.

Tao Tieyi looked at Zheng Zetao, "Do you have any clues?"

Zheng Zetao smiled awkwardly, "No. It still depends on you two to work harder."

As he spoke, Zheng Zetao said self-deprecatingly: "If the traditional Guimen had a rating or something at the end, I guess Jiao Zhizhi and I would just barely make it. It would depend on you two to be amazing."

Tao Tieyi said: "Don't pay too much attention to the rating system. It will alienate people's efforts. Do you understand alienation?..."

"Hey, hey, what are you talking about?" Jiao Zhizhi interrupted Tao Tieyi and turned her gaze back to Chen Mu.

Chen Mu said slowly:

"I found some interesting newspapers in Mr. Zhao's room.

He collected certain specific newspapers from the past ten years, and these newspapers all had one thing in common, which was -

There is a missing person notice in the lower right corner of the newspaper.

And the missing persons in the missing persons notices are all young women!"

After Chen Mu finished speaking, the players looked at each other, and the outline of Pigpen No. 21 appeared in everyone's mind.
