Chapter 137 Is it a coincidence?
Chapter 137 Is it a coincidence?
Wen Qingya was startled and when she looked closely, she found that it was the little girl who had just bumped into her in the alley.
"What are you doing hiding here?"
She didn't ask why a little girl was running around so late in the alley just now.
She originally thought that there was a little girl's home in the alley, but she didn't expect that the child actually ran into the bar.
The dim light shone on the little girl's face, making her lips look as pale as her face.
She shrank back into the closet timidly, without saying a word.
Wen Qingya stood up and wanted to leave when she saw this. The little girl didn't say anything and she didn't have the mood to ask.
She always remembered that the purpose of her coming to the bar was for Lan Pingping.
Moreover, this little girl bumped into her in the alley outside, and then met her again in the bar. Isn't it too much of a coincidence?
Regardless of whether it was true or not, she had no intention of interfering.
Wen Qingya walked to the door and carefully opened a corner of it. The bright light from the corridor instantly cast into the dark door. The light shone under the desk opposite the door, revealing the little girl's panicked face.
She ignored the little girl and quickly stuck her head out to look at the house number on the door.
208
208?
This is the second floor that Lan Yin mentioned. It is the same floor as Room 202 where Lan Pingping disappeared.
Through the small crack in the door, I could see that the corridor outside was empty, but there was a light in every other room, illuminating the entire corridor like daylight.
Wen Qingya was skilled and courageous. She ran quickly to the corridor and looked at the house numbers of all the rooms. At the end of the corridor, she found the room where Lan Pingping disappeared last.
202.
She flashed and used the space spirit to enter the room.
She had just looked carefully in the corridor, and for some reason, there were no surveillance cameras or flowing light beads outside. So when she saw that there was no one around, she used her space spirit to directly enter the room to avoid leaving any traces on the door.
There was still no light in the room, and it was pitch black.
Wen Qingya turned on the small flashlight she brought with her and shone it around the room.
The layout of the room is simple, with a row of wine cabinets and a chair.
The whole room was filled with the rich aroma of wine.
There is no information about Lan Pingping at all.
Wen Qingya frowned and covered her nose with some discomfort. She found that these rooms seemed to have no windows, so the smell inside was amplified countless times in the enclosed space.
It seems that the information provided by the princess is correct. There is indeed something strange going on here. They don’t even dare to open the window.
"Thump, thump, thump."
Wen Qingya checked the room but didn't find any useful clues. At this time, there was the sound of footsteps outside, and the destination seemed to be the room she was in.
She looked at the room's interior, which was clearly visible, quickly turned off the flashlight, and used her space spirit to flash back to the room where the little girl was at the beginning.
The thick dust and musty smell inside told her that no one usually came to this room.
It doesn’t seem that this little girl is quite smart, but she happened to hide in this room. So how did this little girl know that this room is safe?
Wen Qingya waved away the dust in the air with her hand, walked to the desk again, squatted down and opened the cabinet underneath.
Not surprisingly, I met a pair of timid eyes inside.
"Kid, come out."
Wen Qingya made a pinky promise to the child.
The little girl didn't say anything and didn't move.
Wen Qingya thought about it and pretended to search her coat pocket, but in fact she took out a few pieces of chocolate candies that she often ate from the space.
She spread the candy in her palm and handed it to the little girl, saying softly, "I'll ask you a few questions. Answer them, and this candy is yours."
The little girl still didn't move.
······
Wen Qingya took out a few more candies, stacked them on her hand, and stretched out her hand. "As long as you answer one of my questions, all these candies will be yours."
The little girl moved this time, but she didn't reach out to take the candy. Instead, she shrank back into the cabinet in fear.
The small cabinet fixed the little girl's body shape, so even though the little girl tried hard to hide herself, the result was not satisfactory.
Wen Qingya put away the candy.
This guy Blue Baby, she didn’t say that people outside can’t resist temptation. If there are, then it must be that the temptation is not big enough.
Why doesn't this theory work for a little girl?
Since temptation doesn't work, then use coercion.
Wen Qingya took out the pistol Lan Yin had given her and put it against the little girl's head: "Speak, or I'll kill you."
The little girl's eyes finally changed when she saw the gun.
She didn't retreat but advanced, calling out softly, "Sister."
Wen Qingya paused, holding the pistol in her hand. "Don't try to get close to me. I'll kill you even if you do. I don't have a sister."
The little girl shook her head gently and repeated: "Sister... not sister... save sister..."
Wen Qingya put down the hand holding the pistol, approached the little girl and asked, "What sister? Explain clearly."
The little girl stuck her head out a little more and whispered, "Save my sister, weapons...save my sister..."
Wen Qingya pulled the child out directly: "Speak clearly, what sister?"
This time the little girl did not remain silent. Instead, she stood up straight and said in a small but clear voice: "My sister... has been captured by the bad guys. I am in here... I have to save my sister..."
Wen Qingya immediately asked, "Do you know where your sister is imprisoned?"
The little girl nodded, her eyes firm: "I know."
Wen Qingya put away her pistol and said to the little girl in a serious tone, "Child, let's make a deal. I'll help you rescue your sister, and you'll help me find someone."
She did not ask how the girl's sister was caught. In a bar at the end of an alley like this, there are many people of all kinds. For a little girl from the working-class area, beauty is a kind of original sin.
The little girl nodded and whispered, "I know. My sister is locked up on the third floor. Everyone who is arrested is locked up there. But the third floor is locked up, so I can't get in."
Third floor?
If Wen Qingya remembered correctly, only the first floor of this bar could be seen from the outside.
There is a second floor and the interior of the bar is explained as a duplex, but what about the third floor?
Where did it come from?
