Chapter 287: A Cellar Revealed in the Weeds
"Nothing is impossible. Based on your analysis of the murderer, what else is impossible?"
Gu Nankai sneered softly and replied to Wu Qingluan, and then the two of them looked around. Except for the overgrown weeds outside, the houses inside were very clean, but Gu Nankai felt something was wrong.
"Do you find it weird too?"
Wu Qingluan saw some clues from his expression and asked a question while standing beside him.
Gu Nankai nodded in a deep voice. The contrast between inside and outside always made people feel that something was wrong. As the sky gradually darkened, this feeling became more and more obvious. Gu Nankai calmed his head and thought for a long time, standing at the door looking outside.
"Do you feel that the scene in this yard and the scene in the house are very similar to Zhang Xuan's personality?"
Gu Nankai observed for a long time, his eyes still fixed on the things in the yard, but his voice was directed towards Wu Qingluan .
Wu Qingluan was slightly stunned, but soon felt that what he said was very appropriate: "You are right, it is indeed very similar."
At this moment, two thunderbolts flashed in the sky. Gu Nankai watched the sparks flash by, his eyes darkened, and Wu Qingluan's voice came out again: "It looks like it's going to rain."
Gu Nankai looked at the sky and said, "It won't rain for a while."
He turned and walked towards Wu Qingluan, asking as he walked: "Teacher Wu, logically speaking, Zhang Xuan should know the whereabouts of Huang Minghao the best."
Wu Qingluan didn't understand what he meant by this question, but she nodded anyway. Then Gu Nankai continued, "So where is he now?"
Wu Qingluan frowned and looked at him in confusion, with doubt in her eyes. Gu Nankai didn't mind and looked at her seriously and said, "I suspect that Huang Minghao disappeared passively."
Wu Qingluan's doubts suddenly became clear. She raised her eyes and asked, "You mean, Zhang Xuan hid him?"
Gu Nankai nodded quickly: "Yes, think about it, Huang Minghao just abused Wu Mengjie. Even if this matter is exposed, he has his parents to back him up, and there is Ye Lanqing below. As long as the two of them testify, Wu Mengjie is dead and Ye Lanqing has taken the money. He won't suffer much loss in this matter, but why is he in a hurry to hide it?"
Wu Qingluan listened to Gu Nankai's words, her eyes slightly opened, and she suddenly realized: "If we find him quickly, Zhang Xuan will be found by us soon! But if we never find Huang Minghao, Zhang Xuan won't have anything to worry about!"
"Zhang Xuan is afraid that Huang Minghao will reveal his relationship with her!"
There was a loud thunder outside the window, but Wu Qingluan didn't care at all. She stood up and said to Gu Nankai.
Gu Nankai had already thought of this, and he immediately asked: "Zhang Xuan is just a poor student. If she wants to hide someone, where do you think she would hide?"
Wu Qingluan didn't think much about it. She quickly pointed to the house where she was and said, "You mean, Zhang Xuan hid someone here?"
Seeing Gu Nankai's approving look, Wu Qingluan quickly said, "But we've been looking for so long and haven't found anything?"
Gu Nankai stared at her with a clear gaze, snorted coldly and said, "We have almost checked everything inside, but what about outside? We haven't seen anything outside yet."
Wu Qingluan frowned, not caring at all: "There's only a pile of weeds outside, what's there to see? I can't see anything."
Gu Nankai didn't think so. He thought to himself that some things were hidden because of these weeds that people didn't pay attention to. If you don't go and take a look, who knows what is under these weeds .
He thought about it and realized that as a grown man, he had nothing to be afraid of, but Wu Qingluan was a girl. If she found anything, he must not scare her. He shook his head and found a flashlight in the house. After turning it on, he walked out while settling Wu Qingluan down. "Don't go out as a girl. I'll go check it out. You stay here and wait to see if Cao Cang and the others will send any news."
Wu Qingluan originally wanted to go out with him, but when she saw the pitch -black darkness , she was afraid and didn't try to show off. She nodded and told Gu Nankai: "If you find anything, just call me and I'll come out to help you."
Gu Nankai nodded casually and walked out. He found a stick in the yard, walked to the overgrown garden, and hit the weeds in front of him with the stick. Seeing that there was no movement, he felt relieved. But when he was about to go in, the flashlight swept across a corner, and he suddenly stopped.
That was the shady side, and they had difficulty noticing that side at first. Now that they were standing here, they accidentally took a photo and discovered that there seemed to be something different over there.
Thinking of this, Gu Nankai immediately changed his plan and walked over there with a flashlight.
"I see……"
When he realized where the difference came from, he suddenly laughed. Just as he was about to go in, he heard Wu Qingluan's voice suddenly came out in a somewhat anxious voice: "Gu Nankai, there is a situation!"
Gu Nankai responded in a low voice, but still took a few steps forward. He soon saw the wooden board hidden in the weeds, but the board was locked at the moment. It should be a cellar or something. If he wanted to go in, he had to open the heavy board.
He could have used brute force to open it, but thinking of Wu Qingluan's voice calling him just now, Gu Nankai finally got up and left.
"What's going on?"
He quickly went into the room and asked Wu Qingluan a question.
"Zhang Xuan is coming here." Wu Qingluan didn't have time to ask him what he found out, and quickly told him what Cao Cang and the others had just said: "Cao Cang and the others just called and said that Zhang Xuan had left school and was now coming in our direction, so they suspected that she wanted to come home."
go home?
Gu Nankai raised his eyebrows slightly, and his previous discovery quickly came to his mind. He quickly looked at the time. According to the time when Cao Cang called just now, if Zhang Xuan came back at this time, it would take some time.
"Pack up, we can withdraw and find a place to hide and see why she came back."
Gu Nankai was not in a hurry. After he finished talking, he and Wu Qingluan packed up and left Zhang Xuan's house quickly, making sure that no traces were left. They found a secluded place and saw Zhang Xuan was still on the road. Wu Qingluan asked, "Did you find anything when you went out just now?"
Gu Nankai sneered softly: "I found out, and it's a big discovery. I think the reason why Zhang Xuan came back at this time is probably because of what I just found out."
After hearing this, Wu Qingluan was even more surprised. Although the two were not very scared at night, Wu Qingluan was a girl after all. It was her first time to come to such a dark, windy and quiet place. She unconsciously pulled Gu Nankai's clothes to seek a sense of security. She pulled his clothes and whispered, "What did you find?"
Gu Nankai did not keep the secret and quickly said, "I think I found something in the cellar. If my guess is correct, Huang Minghao should be in the cellar. It is very likely that Zhang Xuan came back this time because of this matter."
After he finished speaking, his face darkened slightly: "It's just that I'm not sure whether Huang Minghao is dead or alive now. To enter the cellar, we can only wait for Zhang Xuan to come back and open the lock on top. By then, our doubts should be solved.
