Chapter 394 Let’s go to the big pit
"Maybe." Qin Wei nodded and lowered his head to eat.
Although it is impossible to prevent the occurrence of the plane events, there are still too few clues at present, so Gu Chaoxi has some hidden worries in his heart.
After lunch, it’s time for lunch break.
At noon, the temperature outside was still quite high, so not many people went to work on the construction site.
Gu Chaoxi searched the room for a long time before he pulled out an old-fashioned black electric fan from under the bed.
I don’t know why it’s so hot at noon, and there seems to be sunshine outside.
Of course, it is not the sun that is visible to the naked eye, but the strong sunlight that can be seen on the ground, and the obvious shadows in contrast to it.
She plugged in the power, turned on the fan, and then lay down on the bed.
The fan was probably bought a long time ago. It looks a bit mottled and makes a noisy sound when running.
She tossed and turned in bed for a while, but finally couldn't bear the irritation in her heart and got up from the bed again.
After turning off the fan, Gu Chaoxi picked up the palm-leaf fan on the bed and went out.
Half of the corridor was illuminated by sunlight, and she had just walked out of the room when she felt as if she was scalded by the heat outside.
Looking down, the ground below seemed to be emitting gurgling hot steam.
Holding a palm-leaf fan in front of his forehead, Gu Chaoxi narrowed his eyes and walked downstairs.
Just as she reached the stairs, she heard the sound of a door being opened behind her, followed by Pei Yan's voice calling her.
"Chao Xi, wait!"
He was originally lying on the bed to rest, but suddenly he had a feeling that Gu Chaoxi might go out at noon.
When he heard the faint sound in the corridor, Pei Yan couldn't help but climb out of bed.
Sure enough, I saw someone preparing to go downstairs.
She turned around and looked at Pei Yan who was walking towards her quickly.
There was a hint of fatigue under his eyes, and his previously dyed hair had grown some black regrowth at the roots.
Gu Chaoxi stood there waiting, until Pei Yan came up to her, then she chuckled in sudden realization.
"Ayan, I haven't seen you with black hair yet."
Pei Yan was stunned for a moment, raised his hand to scratch his hair, and then sighed.
"Then I'll let my hair grow this time and see if it grows back."
He wasn't sure if the previous effects still existed, but if she really wanted to see it, she could wear a wig.
She smiled and nodded, raised her hand and pointed downstairs. Seeing Pei Yan nod, she turned around and continued walking downstairs.
It was noon at this time, and probably all the workers were taking a break. At least in this yard, they didn't see anyone outside.
Walk towards the yard in front of the canteen and when you go around it, you can only see the sunshine filling the yard.
Hot.
Gu Chaoxi quickened his pace and walked up the stairs to the dining room.
The door of Wang Chao and his friends' room was not closed. As long as they wanted, they could pass by the door and check the situation inside.
Pointing silently in that direction, Pei Yan understood, raised his hand to make an "OK" gesture, and slowed down his pace to that direction.
The old-fashioned fan beside the bed was squeaking. There were several people sleeping on the bed. The curtains covered a small part of their bodies, so their heads could not be seen clearly.
Wang Chao was sleeping on the side, wearing a pair of large shorts. It was obvious that he was not wearing a shirt. He was lying on the bed with his bare chest.
A little further inside, you can see the figures of children.
Perhaps because Wang Chao, who was sleeping outside, blocked the wind from the fan, the child twisted his body uneasily and then put one foot on Wang Chao's belly.
A little further inside is where He Mei sleeps.
However, He Mei was quite close to the wall and seemed to be lying on her side facing the wall.
The bed was on the side close to the window and door, and the mosquito net was hanging loosely at the foot of the bed.
Pei Yan took another step forward and was able to see the layout behind the end of the bed through the angle where he missed the door.
An old-fashioned red wardrobe that looked a bit heavy, with the upper and lower doors tightly closed.
Gu Chaoxi looked inside from the window and could see something against the wall opposite the bed.
A very long and tall table with drawers, but the drawers seemed to be stuck and not easy to pull out.
There are a lot of miscellaneous things on the table.
Near the door, there are three or four kettles, red and green.
In front of the kettle, there are two or three ceramic cups.
A little further on, there are some miscellaneous household items.
Closest to the inside, there was a bamboo basket with some needles and thread in it.
In short, no matter how you look at it, this is just a very ordinary family room, which is consistent with Gu Chaoxi's ideas about the past era.
There were three pairs of slippers of different sizes scattered at the foot of the bed, but apart from that, there was really nothing else to see.
Pei Yan had already walked past their room, and after a few steps, he turned around and looked at her.
Gu Chaoxi didn't linger and walked straight towards Pei Yan.
"We can't tell anything from just their room. We need to look for other things, or figure out the general relationships between the people on the construction site, especially those who are related to them."
"But now it's rest time, there's no one here."
Gu Chaoxi frowned.
Apart from the fact that Shen Shijie's relationship with He Mei is a little different, no one has been found to have a special relationship with Wang Chao.
But since Wang Chao was killed and buried, the murderer should not have revealed himself at all.
At the very least, Gu Chaoxi believed that the murderer was an acquaintance of Wang Chao.
He is only defenseless against people he knows well. The strength of a grown man who cooks all year round should not be underestimated.
Even if the other party was a worker on the construction site, if the two of them fought, both would be injured instead of being buried quietly.
"I want to go over to that pit and take a look."
As she spoke, Pei Yan had already moved.
Gu Chaoxi was stunned for a moment and was speechless.
Pei Yan directly took her hand and said, "Don't you want to go and take a look? Let's go!"
She was still holding a palm-leaf fan in her other hand. After being pulled into the sunlight by Pei Yan, she immediately raised it to cover her forehead and looked at him meaningfully.
The two of them walked out of the dormitory yard, and the view outside was filled with scorching sun.
Looking further away, you can see endless white.
I think the Tanlong Building should only provide so many spaces.
The two walked towards the building. Since the first floor was built earlier, there were already closed walls on the sides.
So, if they didn't go around it, they wouldn't be able to see the big hole that they saw upstairs.
Turning around the edge of the first floor, you can see weeds gradually growing.
Last night's mud had dried up under the sunlight, but there were no footprints on the road.
Come to think of it, no one has gone that way today.
