Chapter 162 (1/2)
”I'm human, too, and I'll be afraid later.” She searched around Ji Yue's room. She had just tried. The key on Ji Yue's body was the key to the room.
Since the key is with you, there must be something valuable in it.
It's just that the man who fought in the war lived a rough life. The room was chaotic, like a pig's nest that had been panned for thousands of times. It was not only chaotic, but also had a strange smell that was hard to say. She rummaged for a long time, worked hard all over the sweat, and finally got nothing.
Zhu GuanLiang stood still, watching her busy all the time, and could not help saying, ”if you go on searching like this, I'm afraid you can't find the whole room by turning it over.”
Zhou Leping pinched his waist and gasped for breath. ”Don't stand and talk. You don't have a backache. You're also looking for it. When do I have to go alone?”
He said, ”this room is big or small. If you really want to find something, it can't help looking for it. You've turned over all the places that can be turned in the whole room. Since you haven't found it, there are only two possibilities.”
She asked, ”what's possible?”
”First, there is no map of the city of Kings here.” He walked around the room and looked around. ”Second, there is a secret room in this room.”
”The chamber of secrets?”
”Ji Yue, as a pro guard general, is now the most valued and trusted person of King Xianyu. He can't have the map of the king's city. Even if he doesn't carry it with him, he must put it in the place where he can see it every day. The room is the safest, so he can only have a secret room.”
Zhou Leping smacked his lips and muttered, ”although what you said is very reasonable, why do I think it's so ridiculous?”
Zhu GuanLiang has always been a mature man. I don't know where he got so much self-confidence, but many times it has proved that he is right.
Although I don't really believe that Ji Yue, who has not enough brains from time to time, will use the secret room, I still have to look for it in case I get something.
What can we say about the secret room? It's designed by smarter people, and it's impossible to find out where the mechanism is. But it's also convenient. Some of the more commonly used openings are vases, some are books on bookshelves, and some are penholders on tables.
Zhou Leping confirmed all that he could think of, possibly the organs one by one, but the objects were ordinary objects, which was equivalent to turning over the whole room again, but there was no secret room.
”For Ji Yue's brain, even if he has a secret room, he probably can't use it. It's not that he's stupid. The mechanism design is too complicated. I guess he will forget it.”
Zhu GuanLiang said, ”the organs you just found are similar to those used by men to hide private money. If you put such important things, the organs naturally need to be hidden.”
