Chapter 56 Discovering the Secret
Chapter 56 Discovering the Secret
Since the quarrel that day, the atmosphere in the base camp has become even more strange, even the words have to be cautious, and the chances of seeing Wan Yang are even less.
Although everything seemed normal except for this point, Shen Ke somehow felt depressed.
In addition, after he woke up, he could hear the animals raised in the base camp talking. Although it was interesting, it was also very noisy, so he ran out every two days.
Originally, what he wanted was to go outside to avoid the limelight and to be quiet.
But the fact was completely opposite to what he thought, but it also made him realize one thing.
Not only can he communicate with those chickens, ducks and pigs, but he can also communicate with Cretan creatures. Not only that, they even lose their previous hostility towards him and respect him so much that now he can walk sideways when he goes out , I am not afraid at all.
And after this period of communication, Shen Ke also knew the strange thoughts of many Cretan creatures and what they encountered and saw.
Shen Ke, who already liked small animals, naturally would not let go of this great opportunity.
That evening, when he came back from the outside happily, he happened to meet Bu Gu squatting at the door.
"Shen Ke, tell me, why did you sneak out recently? Are you looking for death?" Bu Gu asked mercilessly.
But Shen Ke couldn't explain it to him, and was trying to find an excuse to evade it, when she saw Wan Yang coming out of the air-raid shelter.
He put his index finger to his mouth: "Shh."
"Hey, I said you..." Before Bu Gu finished speaking, Shen Ke covered his mouth and turned him back.
The two saw Wan Yang locking the door of the air-raid shelter and walking back.
Shen Ke quickly pulled Bu Gu aside, and waited until Wan Yang disappeared from sight before walking out with his head poking around.
Bu Gu asked puzzledly: "Isn't the air-raid shelter closed? Why did Uncle Wan go in?"
Shen Ke shrugged: "I don't know, but I feel that this is the reason why he quarreled with Uncle Meng."
He was hesitating whether to tell Bu Gu about the blueprint, when Meng Fanyi appeared: "What are you doing here?"
"No, nothing." Bu Gu shook his head guiltily.
"We..." Shen Ke smiled, pulled Bu Gu and ran away, "We're hungry, we're going to eat."
·
After dinner, Shen Ke invited Bu Gu and the others to sneak to the air-raid shelter, but the door was closed and locked, and it couldn't be opened at all.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Shen Ke said, "Do you think Uncle Wan has a secret?"
Bu Gu didn't dare to jump to conclusions, but he saw Wan Yang coming out of here with his own eyes, scratching his cheek: "I'm not sure, but do you remember what they said about Uncle Wan?"
Shen Ke thought for a while, then nodded: "I remember."
Bu Gu said: "If it's true, Uncle Wan was wronged, do you think he wants revenge?"
"Revenge?" Shen Ke was taken aback, "You mean, Uncle Wan still wants to return to Sanctuary City and take back the position of the city lord, but because this is contrary to Uncle Meng's opinion, the two quarreled?"
"It's possible." Bu Gu nodded, "So it's better not to get too involved in this matter."
Shen Ke rubbed his chin thoughtfully, it is definitely not that simple.
"By the way, you ran out early in the morning for the past few days. Why did you go? Now the outside is full of dangers, and seeing the complicated and changeable weather, your injury will not be good. Can you stop running out all the time? .” Every time Bu Gu wanted to get up early to catch him, but when he opened his eyes, he was no longer there.
"I'm just..." Shen Ke made a sad appearance, frowning, tears were about to flow.
Bu Gu quickly comforted: "Okay, okay, I know that Aunt Shen's death is a big blow to you, but you can't ignore your own safety, if you want to go out, call me, Yuan Hao, and Zheng Yu, Anyone can do it, it's safer than running outside by yourself."
Shen Ke sniffed: "Don't worry, I know."
·
Probably because she has been running out all the time in the past few days, Shen Ke felt extremely sleepy after eating.
But lying on the bed, as long as he closes his eyes, his mind is full of the scene of Wan Yang coming out of the air-raid shelter just now, and the animals beside his ears are chatting non-stop, so he simply went down to the ground to find Meng Fanyi.
He knocked on the door, and pushed in when he heard the answer from inside: "Uncle Meng, have you rested?"
Seeing that there was only a small lamp left in the room, Shen Ke stood at the door and did not go in immediately.
"No." Meng Fanyi pushed the drawer and turned around, "Shen Ke, what's the matter?"
Shen Ke nodded, walked over and stood beside him: "Uncle Meng, there is something I don't know if I should say it, but you may know it."
"Go ahead." Meng Fanyi turned to look at him.
"That day, I saw a blueprint on Uncle Wan's desk, which looked like a tunnel, but it looked like an air-raid shelter when I looked closely." Shen Ke stared at his expression after finishing speaking.
So calm, I must have known it.
"I know." Meng Fanyi patted his arm, "But you don't have to worry, I will always be by your side."
"Then..." Shen Ke also wanted to ask, does this mean that one day in the future, Wan Yang will leave, and that tunnel may be the key, but before he could say it, Meng Fanyi stopped him.
"How is the wound recovering recently?" Meng Fanyi asked.
Shen Ke nodded: "It's okay."
Thanks to Jiang Yuan's medicine, the wound on his back is now healing visible to the naked eye, and it is no longer the same as before. With a little movement, the previous recovery will be wasted.
Meng Fanyi said: "I know you miss your mother, why don't I? But it's not peaceful outside now, if you have nothing to do, don't run out all the time, if you want to go out to relax, just take someone with you, everyone will accompany you."
Shen Ke smiled: "I see, Uncle Meng."
·
In the next few days, Shen Ke didn't go out, not because he didn't want to go out, but because he wanted to see what Wan Yang was going to do.
Finally, on a sunny afternoon, when everyone was taking a lunch break, Shen Ke saw Wan Yang sneaking into the air-raid shelter.
He followed secretly and found that the air-raid shelter was unlocked.
Shen Ke gently opened the door a crack, squeezed in and closed the door gently.
This was Shen Ke's first time entering the air-raid shelter since the catastrophic weather.
It was different from the time when I came in. There were many lamps, which were enough to illuminate the air-raid shelter, but now there are only a few lights here, which emit a faint light, which makes people's scalp tingle.
Shen Ke bravely walked in, and it got darker and darker. Just when he was concentrating on the front, he suddenly felt someone behind him, and when he was about to turn around, he was patted on the shoulder.
"what!"
Although she was mentally prepared, Shen Ke subconsciously cried out, and immediately turned her head to see Wan Yang standing behind him, staring at him intently.
Shen Ke looked at him against the light, and always felt that Wan Yang was particularly scary at the moment, like the protagonist of those horror movies he had seen before.
He stroked his chest and pretended to be calm, and smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, Uncle Wan, why are you here?"
Wan Yang shone the flashlight on him: "Isn't it right for me to ask you this?"
The sudden light made it difficult for Shen Ke to adapt. When she raised her hand to cover her eyes, her phoenix eyes narrowed into a slit: "Uncle Wan, what are you doing? You dazzle your eyes."
Wan Yang didn't intend to remove the light, his voice was cold, completely devoid of his usual kindness: "Tell me, why are you following me?"
"I, I didn't follow you." Shen Ke pointed at random, trying to slip away from him, but was pulled back by the collar.
"Shen Ke, let me ask you, what exactly do you want to do?" Wan Yang shone the flashlight to one side, but he could guarantee to see Shen Ke's expression.
Now that Shen Ke has been arrested, she has no way to justify it, so she can only admit she was wronged and said truthfully, "I just want to know why you came here and why you quarreled with Uncle Meng."
"Want to know?" Wan Yang asked.
Shen Ke nodded: "Of course I hope the base camp is good, but..."
Wan Yang interrupted him: "Then don't go, stay here with me and wait for someone."
Shen Ke's mind was filled with question marks: "Waiting for someone?"
·
I don't know how long it took, maybe more than an hour, but Shen Ke felt like she had slept for several times.
Surprised to find that it can isolate those miscellaneous voices, and it is a good place to sleep and nap.
But more importantly, Shen Ke wanted to leave, but Wan Yang refused to let him talk to him, but he ignored him, so he could only sit on the ground and doze off bored.
It wasn't until he vaguely heard Wan Yang's voice in his sleep that he woke up in a daze and saw that Wan Yang was really talking to someone.
Guo Xi: "Why did you bring someone with you today?"
Wan Yang felt helpless: "Follow me."
"Then..." Guo Xi just turned his head to look, and saw Shen Ke's face, "Why is it him?"
"You know him?" Wan Yang slapped Shen Ke and asked him to come over.
Pointing to Guo Xi, he asked, "Do you know him?"
Shen Ke leaned over to look at Guo Xi's face, shook her head, "I don't know him."
"Then how do you know him?" Seeing that Shen Ke didn't look like he was lying, Wan Yang turned to ask Guo Xi.
Guo Xi opened his mouth and said, "He has a very good relationship with Jiang Yuan."
Now it was Wan Yang's turn to be shocked, he turned around and grabbed Shen Ke's shoulder: "You know Jiang Yuan? The top assassin Jiang Yuan? Why don't I know?"
Shen Ke smiled embarrassedly: "Ah, this...I..."
He never expected that his relationship with Jiang Yuan would be exposed under such circumstances.
He tilted his head: "Who is Jiang Yuan?"
Guo Xi laughed dryly: "If you say that, I don't know how Jiang Yuan will react."
"Does his reaction have something to do with me? I don't know him." Shen Ke thought that since he was pretending, he would pretend to the end.
"All right, all right, you can recognize it or not." Guo Xi didn't bother him any more, and pulled Wan Yang aside and whispered.
Shen Ke wanted to go over to listen, but was kicked out by Wan Yang directly.
·
Coming out of the air-raid shelter, Shen Ke frowned, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
In the current situation, he doesn't know what Wan Yang is going to do, but Wan Yang knows that he is familiar with Jiang Yuan. My heart is not at ease, as if there is a knife hanging above my head.
I have to ask Jiang Yuan about the situation.
Unexpectedly, Wan Yang called him to his room that night before he left.
"Uncle Wan, you're looking for me." Standing at the door, Shen Ke didn't want to go in. Although he had done nothing wrong, he just wanted to keep a distance from Wan Yang for no reason.
"Yeah." Wan Yang said, and raised his chin behind him, "Close the door."
Shen Ke didn't follow suit, and left an imperceptible crack on the door: "Uncle Wan, it's so late, don't you take a rest?"
Unexpectedly, Wan Yang didn't buy his account at all: "Tell me, how did you know Jiang Yuan?"
