"Slipped away?
How could he escape when so many people came to arrest him?"
Zhou Bai remembered that the last time he saw "Monkey", he was still dying.
Unless he recovers quickly, in his condition, he probably won't be able to escape very far.
Qi Fa didn't dare to be too sure about this issue.
"What you can see here is limited.
I did see him run away, but those people quickly caught up with him.
I can't be sure whether he ran away in the end or fell into someone's hands."
Zhou Bai nodded, took another look at the birds still standing outside the window, then lowered the curtains and sat across from Qi Fa.
He recounted to Qi Fa the key points of what happened today.
Of course, the part where Fatty Peng was asked to count the tiles and the part where he went to the gate of the elementary school was skipped.
"Do you think the person who sent the distress signal was locked up in the supermarket?"
Qi Fa's guess is very reasonable, and Zhou Bai has also thought about it.
The last place where a distress signal was sent was in this supermarket.
Until their departure, the duty team had not received any more information.
It is very possible that people entered this supermarket and could not get out, and therefore could no longer send messages.
But this does not rule out that the other party has suffered other accidents, or the signaling machine has malfunctioned.
Zhou Bai currently has too little information, so he can only eliminate possibilities one by one.
"It's possible.
But there’s obviously something wrong with that supermarket, and it’s too risky to go in hastily.”
Qi Fa thoughtfully said: "There are two other places where the messages were sent that I haven't checked yet."
Zhou Bai took out the map and spread it flat on the ground.
Looking at the other two locations on the map, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
These two locations are relatively far away. If we still follow today's route, it may be difficult to reach the abandoned school in time at 4 p.m.
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai's eyes fell on the route that Qi Fa rejected yesterday.
"But when I pass that road, I always hear some very confusing sounds."
These are the exact words Qi Fa said last night.
Risking that path may be dangerous.
Not risking that path would be breaking the rules again.
Zhou Bai suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"The distance is quite far, so we may need to leave early tomorrow."
Qi Fa also noticed the problem of distance.
Zhou Bai had already made up his mind at this time.
"Then get up early tomorrow and set off on time at seven o'clock."
After he finished speaking, he said to Fatty Peng, who was also approaching, and Qi Fa, who was sitting opposite.
"I have to apply for an extra box of candy tomorrow. I'll need it to complete the task."
Heartless Fatty Peng shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
Qi Fa, on the other hand, looked at Zhou Bai in astonishment.
"What's wrong? Do you have a different opinion?" Zhou Bai asked.
Qi Fa quickly waved his hand.
"No, you can take it if you want. You don't need to tell me specifically..."
The more he spoke, the quieter his voice became.
"We are a team. Isn't it normal for me to tell you something?"
Qi Fa's expression was still a little dazed.
Fatty Peng, who was sitting next to him, suddenly burst into laughter.
"He always works alone, what does he know about a team?
There is no one in our previous duty team who has not been beaten by him..."
Before Fatty Peng finished speaking, he was pushed to the ground and beaten by Qi Fa again.
"You always make mistakes when doing things, shouldn't I hit you?
That guy named Lu, because he is the captain, always oppresses others, shouldn't he be beaten?
And there’s something wrong with the deputy director’s bullshit, why can’t I beat him?”
Fatty Peng was beaten until he screamed.
Zhou Bai shook his head helplessly, put away the map on the ground, and walked next to Qi Fa.
Pat him on the shoulder and remind him to hit him more quietly.
He opened his pocket watch, glanced at the time, and then walked into the toilet to take a shower.
At about 8:30, Zhou Bai came out of the shower and saw Fatty Peng sitting on the ground in aggrieved manner with one eye swollen.
But Qi Fuzhao was still sitting next to him and staring at him.
"I have to get up early tomorrow, that's almost all."
After he finished speaking, he walked to the door and reached out to check the door lock.
When I walked to the door, I heard footsteps coming from outside.
Zhou Bai stopped what he was doing and subconsciously moved his eyes closer to the cat's eyes.
I plan to take a look at the situation outside the room.
But this look shocked Zhou Bai.
The pig-eared man who knocked on their door last night actually appeared outside the corridor again.
He was still missing half of his ears, and the expression on his face looked a little dazed.
At this time, he was walking slowly from the direction of the elevator entrance.
He walked to the door of a room, opened the door, and walked in.
Zhou Bai waited until he could no longer see his figure, but still stood by the door in shock.
Is he still alive?
And he even returned to his room!
So where did the plate of cold pig ears that Linda was eating come from?
Qi Fa said that whenever someone is about to be punished, the sound of chewing will become more obvious.
What's going on?
The reappearance of this pig-eared man made Zhou Bai feel a little confused.
It seems that the real appearance of this hotel is a little different from what I thought at first.
With his mind full of doubts, Zhou Bai walked back to his bed with heavy steps.
Qi Fa saw that something was not right about the expression on Zhou Bai's face, and he was awkward for a while before he asked.
"Outside the door, is there a problem?"
Zhou Bai was stunned for a moment before realizing that Qi Fa was talking to him.
There is nothing to hide in this matter.
So Zhou Bai described last night and the scene he just saw in the cat's eye to Qi Fa.
After Qi Fa listened, the expression on his face became more serious.
"Then I'll stay in the hotel tomorrow and try to figure this out."
Zhou Bai was also thinking about the possibility of this matter.
"After all, we have to live here for a long time. It would be best if we could figure it out.
However, if it is too dangerous, don't force it.
Our most important thing is to successfully complete the mission and leave the city safely.
All other issues are secondary."
Qi Fa didn't say much.
At this moment, Zhou Bai remembered that he had received a copy of the supplementary rules in the morning, so he took it out and handed it to him.
"Don't break the rules and don't piss off the people in the hotel.
Pay attention to your own personal safety."
Zhou Bai did not mention the two boxes of snacks in the room because he felt that Qi Fa's life safety was more important.
Qi Fa took over the rules, his eyes were downcast, he didn't say anything, he just nodded.
