Chapter Fifty-Seven: Suppressed for a Night

  Exiting from the crack they came in, the road was littered with dead snake corpses. The three people who stayed outside were nowhere to be seen. Only Wu Renyi and Yang Xiao could be seen walking down one after another. The exit below was blocked by a giant boulder, Wu Renyi clearly knew this, but now he led Yang Xiao all the way down, what did it mean?

  At this time, there was no time to think too much, whether going up or down, as long as Wu Rendai led the way in front, even if it were a sea of knives and fire, Sun Baozi would dare to follow him all the way forward. When they arrived at the bottom of Pan Shan Road, they heard a woman's intermittent crying sound. Wu Rendai was right in front of them, not afraid that there might be female ghosts or anything. Sun Baozi looked in the direction of the crying sound and saw a woman sitting on a broken stalactite platform, trembling with fear - it was Autumn Beauty who had disappeared from view earlier.

  The lower part of the stalactite was densely packed with dead snake corpses. Although they were motionless, Autumn Beauty, who had already been frightened, didn't dare to come down anymore. She didn't even dare to look at the dead snakes' bodies and buried her head in her knees, sobbing quietly.

  Wu Renyi passed by without even giving Autumn a glance. It seems that the anger from letting the red-haired man escape earlier had not dissipated yet. Since his own director didn't care, Yang Xiao naturally couldn't go over either. He simply turned his head to look at Sun Pangzi and others, pointed in the direction of Autumn, hinting for Sun Pangzi and Xiao Heshang to go and help out.

  "It's okay, come down, brother will take you out" Sun Baozi called out to Autumn Beauty while taking advantage of the situation. However, at this moment, Autumn Beauty didn't care about that, she lifted her head and looked at Sun Baozi with tearful eyes, as if seeing a long-lost relative, "Wa..." she exclaimed, bursting into loud sobs, stammering: "I... I don't dare, down there... down there are snakes..."

  Sun Baozi and Xiao Heshang put the motionless Hugo in a pile of dead snakes, then Sun Baozi walked to the side of the stalactite platform where Autumn Beauty was sitting, using his toes to kick the dead snakes aside, clearing a path for her. Only then did Autumn Beauty dare to climb down from the stalactite, trembling with fear, and throw herself into Sun Baozi's arms, wailing loudly: "I'm scared to death... just now it was all snakes, that guy... got smashed to death, Zhao Mingyuan... that son of a bitch... threw me here, he himself... ran away first"

  After crying for a while, Autumn Beauty stopped her sorrowful voice and let go of Sun Wu. Wiping away her tears, she looked at him with some confusion and said: "How come you're fine? So many snakes... they all came from your place. I thought you were all bitten to death, and the next one would be me..."

  "It's not me saying it, Mei, can't you just wish me well?" Sun Baozi sighed and continued: "This involves a secret within the department, it's really inconvenient to tell you, so let's do this, when today's matter is declassified, I'll be the first one to tell you."

  Qiu Dami was also a public security system, she understood what confidentiality meant, and at this time, she didn't entangle with this issue anymore. Following Sun Baozi and several others on the way back, thinking of the scene where snakes were dancing wildly earlier, she still sobbed intermittently.

  Not long after, these few people arrived at the small pond they had just passed by. When they came, they saw Wu Renyi and Yang Xiao had already gone to the next area.

  Just as they were about to step over the water pool, they saw a man lying in the shallow water area on the other side of the pool. Judging from his back, it should be Zhao Mingyuan who was carrying Da Mei's backpack.

  Sun Baozi carried Yu Huo on his back, accompanied by Qiu Dami and Xiao Heshang, as they waded through the water. When they reached the man lying in the water, they turned his body over, revealing none other than Zhao Mingyuan, who had a somewhat slippery reputation. His body had several snake bites, and there were also several dead snakes under him. Unexpectedly, even with Qiu Dami as a human shield, he still hadn't escaped this disaster.

  Anyway, it's considered a acquaintance, Sun Baozi dragged Zhao Mingyuan's body out of the water pool and temporarily put it in a corner. Wait for the people from the Civil Affairs Bureau to come and process the scene, then move his body out.

  After walking a little further, after passing through another cluster of stalactites, the exit came into view. However, when they saw the exit, Sun Baozi and Qiu Dami didn't expect that the huge boulder blocking the outside would move forward by two or three meters, making way for the entrance.

  Since they could get out, things that couldn't be figured out would be discussed later. Sun Baozi and Qiu Dami almost ran out of the cave in a hurry. Xiang He Shang said inexplicably: "What's the rush? This isn't the lair of the Forty Thieves, it will close by itself when the time comes..."

  He hadn't finished speaking, when Sun Baozi turned around and made a silencing gesture to Xiao He Shang: "Old Xiao, if you don't know, then don't spout nonsense... If the door is really locked, can you find the key to let us out?"

  After coming out, it was discovered that the sky had already darkened, and Wu Renyi and Yang Yu were nowhere to be seen. Sun Baozi immediately contacted the Civil Affairs Bureau and asked them to send someone over to clean up the scene.

  This is not a place to stay for the night, so they returned to Shallow Ford along the original road. Originally thought that it would be necessary to endure one night here, but when they arrived, they found that the bamboo raft that had brought them over during the day did not leave, possibly because of the police identity of Zhao Mingyuan and his companions.

  After returning to the city, it's not necessary to mention how to settle Autumn. Sun Baozi took Xiao He Shang and Yu Guo, who had just woken up, and rushed to the airport. On the way, Sun Baozi finally told Xiao He Shang that he was controlled by the soul of a red-haired man and wanted to come over to deal with Wu Renyi. After listening, Xiao He Shang's face turned white, and he repeatedly recalled, but couldn't remember who had controlled him.

  After arriving at the airport, while preparing to board the plane, at the fast lane entrance, I unexpectedly found Wu Renyi and Yang Shuo. The two of them should have arrived early. After seeing Sun Baozi, Yang Shuo immediately came over and said: "We've been waiting for you, if you didn't arrive, they wouldn't let us board on this side."

  Sun Baozi finally understood that they had been waiting for this all along. If the two of them could board the plane by themselves, they would have probably flown back to the Civil Aviation Bureau by now. Whatever they wanted to say would have to wait until they got back to the Civil Aviation Bureau.

  However, Sun Baozi still didn't have the guts to discuss conditions with Wu Renyi and had to put on a smiling face as he followed him onto the plane. After the plane took off, Wu Renyi found a corner and began reading his "Records of the Dead". Sun Baozi seized an opportunity to call Yang Yu over, taking advantage of Wu Renyi's distraction, lowering his voice to ask: "Old Yang, when did you and Director Wu start switching identities?"

  Yang Dian first looked back and saw that he seemed to have not heard Sun Baozi's words. Only then did he turn his head and say softly to Sun Baozi: "At the Civil Affairs Bureau, we had already exchanged identities. But unexpectedly, everyone kept it a secret, except for you. But speaking of which, do I look like Director Wu?"

  Sun Baozi smiled and said: "Exactly the same, completely flawless. I'm not saying it, but looking at you two is like looking at fraternal twins born to different mothers."

  Sun said up to here, paused for a moment, looked at Director Wu opposite him and continued: "Wait a minute, you've all changed identities. So when we were on the plane playing cards together, was that... Director Wu?"

  Yang Xiao looked at him and didn't understand why Sun Wuji asked this. He said: "Of course it's Director Wu, what's wrong with that?"

  After hearing Yang Xiao's affirmative words, Sun Baozi's smiling eyes had already narrowed into a straight line, and he said with a smile: "So that means the one who played cards all night and never won against me wasn't you, but Wu Renyi..."

  While speaking, he began to search his body as if looking for something. Yang Xiao didn't understand what Sun Buzi meant and asked in confusion: "What's missing?"

  When Yang Xiao was speaking, Sun Baozi had already found a small notebook stuck on the card in his wallet. Sun Baozi flipped through the notebook, which was written with something very carefully. Yang Xiao couldn't see what he wrote from where he stood and couldn't help but ask: "What are you writing?"

  Sun Baozi burst out laughing, took a glance at Wu Renyi who was still calm and collected, then said: "Find the account book, on xx year x month xx day, Wu Renyi lost to me in cards for one night, hahahahaha"
