C87 Secret Passage



C87 Secret Passage

"What?"    

    

"An underground basement, where did you find it?"    

    

Lin Fei tensed up.    

    

He and Jack wandered around the villa during the day, but they did not find any secret room.    

    

He didn't expect this girl to be so powerful. She actually found a hidden basement. She was indeed smart.    

    

It was not strange to build an underground basement in a villa overseas to store food or important belongings.    

    

Moreover, this was a leisure villa specially built for world-class wealthy people. It was even more likely to build such an underground basement in the villa.    

    

However, as the owner of this villa, Lin Fei should have the right to know if there really was such an underground basement.    

    

Therefore, there should be such a record in the property list of this villa, but there wasn't.    

    

Moreover, as the professional housekeeper of the villa, Jack should know about it too.    

    

From the fact that Jack had never mentioned it, it could be surmised that he really did not know about it.    

    

Combined with this series of analyses, plus the fact that the suspected pirate leader wanted to buy this villa made Lin Fei feel that there was a connection between all of this.    

    

"There is a secret passage under the stairs on the first floor."    

    

Hsi Mengwei looked at Lin Fei and said excitedly.    

    

"Come, take me to see it."    

    

Lin Fei said.    

    

He felt that everything was not simple.    

    

"Alright!"    

    

Hsi Mengwei directly nodded her head, then turned around and walked downstairs.    

    

Lin Fei followed her downstairs. Lee Feier and Liu Qing trailed behind curiously.    

    

The stairway that connected the first and second floors was a huge spiraling display of exorbitant wealth. The entrance to the underground basement was behind this staircase.    

    

Hsi Mengwei brought Lin Fei and the other two to the back of the stairs and without hesitation pressed a smooth brick on the wall on the side.    

    

"Crack crack crack!"    

    

Suddenly, there was the sound of a mechanism. They felt like grave robbers exploring an abandoned tomb.    

    

As the cracking sound ended, a dark entrance appeared below the stairs. A narrow staircase extended downwards, reaching depths that could not be seen.    

    

The four of them looked at the entrance with vigilance and curiosity in their eyes.    

    

"Mr Lin Fei, I accidentally touched the brick wall just now and found this place!"    

    

"But it's too dark down there. I didn't dare go down alone. That's why I came to look for you guys."    

    

Hsi Mengwei explained before Lin Fei could ask anything.    

    

"En!"    

    

Lin Fei nodded and waved his hand to signal Liu Qing, Lee Feier and Hsi Mengwei to retreat. He slowly walked to the entrance of the underground basement and observed.    

    

The entrance carried a musty smell. It was obvious that it had not been opened for a long time.    

    

Moreover, there was no wind coming from the entrance. From this, one could infer that... It was supposed to be a sealed underground chamber.    

    

Lin Fei used his superior hearing to lean against the entrance and listen carefully for a while. He could detect no movement below. He then stood up and said to the three women behind him, "You guys wait for me up there. I'll go down and take a look first."    

    

"No!"    

    

But as soon as Lin Fei finished speaking, Liu Qing straightened up instantly and firmly opposed him.    

    

She did not wait for Lin Fei to ask why. She looked at Lin Fei like a big sister and said, "Sir, the situation down there is unclear. I will go down with you. If there is an emergency, we can take care of each other."    

    

"Mengwei, Feier, the two of you stay up there. If you hear anything, immediately leave this place!"    

    

She was completely like a big sister. In the face of danger, she was definitely the type to stand in front of others. She was especially loyal and had her own opinions!    

    

"No!"    

    

"Sister Qing, this is our responsibility. We have to face this together. How can we let you and Mr Lin Fei go down together?"    

    

"Sister Feier, am I right?"    

    

As soon as Liu Qing finished speaking, Hsi Mengwei put her hands on her hips and said righteously. She deliberately looked at Lee Feier and asked for support.    

    

"Yes, Mengwei is right. How can you leave us behind in this kind of matter? We must advance and retreat together."    

    

Lee Feier also clenched her pair of dainty fists and said very firmly.    

    

Seeing their determined looks, Lin Fei felt warmth in his heart.    

    

"Alright!"    

    

"This isn't a big deal. You guys are making it seem like we're going to our deaths. Is there a need to do that? "    

    

"Since everyone is curious, let's go down together and take a look!"    

    

Lin Fei placated.    

    

He took out his phone and turned on the flashlight. He walked down first and Liu Qing followed closely behind. Lee Feier followed behind Liu Qing and Hsi Mengwei was placed at the back of the team.    

    

Although Hsi Mengwei was not timid, among these people, she was the youngest. So she naturally had to be protected by everyone.    

    

The entrance to the underground basement was very narrow and could only allow one person to pass through. So they could only enter one by one.    

    

The underground basement was quite deep. They walked down the long flight of stairs for two minutes before Lin Fei and the three beauties entered the secret room together.    

    

Lin Fei used his flashlight to check the entire underground basement. The room was quite spacious. It was about the size of a basketball court and three meters high.    

    

However, it was empty inside. There was nothing at all. It was just a big and deserted room. He could even clearly see the marks left by the chisel on the walls.    

    

Seeing this scene, Lin Fei's guess became even more certain. It was obvious that this secret room was not in the original design of the villa, but secretly added after its construction.    

    

Who was the person who excavated this underground basement?    

    

Why did they dig out such a large underground room?    

    

What did this matter have to do with that bald pirate leader?    

    

Many questions flashed in Lin Fei's mind, making him feel as if there was a fog in front of his eyes, preventing him from seeing the truth.    

    

But now he was sure that this matter wasn't simple.    

    

Together, the group carefully walked around the dark room. Lin Fei did not find anything, so he prepared to return above.    

    

"Ah!"    

    

However, at this time, Liu Qing who had been following Lin Fei suddenly screamed and jumped onto Lin Fei.    

    

In this dark and enclosed space, Liu Qing's scream almost pierced through their souls, causing their hearts to contract at the same time. Then, they started to beat wildly.    

    

"What happened to you?"    

    

Lin Fei's entire body tensed up. He hurriedly asked.    

    

"Rats, rats!"    

    

Liu Qing pointed at the ground and said with a trembling voice.    

    

No one would have thought that such a mature and calm lady would be afraid of rats.    

    

"Ah!"    

    

Before Lin Fei could say anything, Liu Qing had just finished speaking when Hsi Mengwei jumped onto Lee Feier.    

    

Lin Fei knew that for this excitable little pepper, her natural enemy, was also rats.    

    

When she was in Jinye Neighborhood, she had the same reaction as Liu Qing now.    

    

"Rats don't eat humans. What are you guys afraid of?"    

    

Lee Feier looked at Hsi Mengwei who was hanging on her body, completely unwilling to let go, and said calmly.    

    

Lin Fei did not expect this. He thought that with Lee Feier's personality, she would be most afraid of rats, but the truth was the opposite.    

    

Following the direction Liu Qing pointed, Lin Fei shone his flashlight and saw a mouse running towards a corner of the room.    

    

"Fortunately, it's just a mouse. False alarm, false alarm!"    

    

"Alright, it's gone now!"    

    

Seeing the mouse run into a corner and disappear, Lin Fei then said to Liu Qing who was still hanging on his body.    

    

At this moment, Liu Qing was hugging him very tightly. The softness of her chest was almost all on his shoulder, making him feel an unbearable itch in his heart.    

    

"Let's go, let's go up!"    

    

After the few of them sorted out their emotions, Lin Fei said.    

    

"Wait..."    

    

Hsi Mengwei suddenly held up a hand and said.    

    

"Mengwei, what's wrong?"    

    

Lin Fei looked at Hsi Mengwei and asked.    

    

"This underground secret room is so deep. How can there be a mouse?"    

    

Hsi Mengwei looked at Lin Fei and said.    

    

"Oh, you're right. How can there be a mouse here?"    

    

At Hsi Mengwei's reminder, Lin Fei felt that something was wrong. He walked towards the corner where the mouse had disappeared.    

    

He wanted to check that place. Logically speaking, there should not be a hole in this underground basement where the rat could escape.    

    

Reaching the corner, he found a mouse hole. He leaned his hand against it and couldn't help but sigh.    

    

There was wind blowing out of the mouse hole.    

    

He stood up and kicked the wall of the secret room above the mouse hole.    

    

"Whoosh!"    

    

As soon as his foot touched the wall, a portion crumbled away.    

    

Shocked, he kicked a few more times, causing the wall to partially collapse.    

    

A passageway that could fit two people side by side appeared in front of Lin Fei.
