Case File Compendium

The horizontal line keeps rising.

Although this room has a lot of space, there is still a period of time to break through. But the door lock is broken, the signal is blocked, whether it is to open the door or call for help, they can't do it.

He Yu and Xie Qing tried all methods and found that they really had no way to save themselves, and the atmosphere of the shooting cabin became very solemn.

He Yu suddenly took a shovel from the corner and slammed it on the alloy door.

Xie Qingcheng: "...don't bother, this kind of door can't be opened by prying."

He Yu didn't say a word, he threw the shovel after he stabbed a few obvious scratches on the door, took out his phone and switched it to the stopwatch interface, and started timing.

The floating light of the mobile phone reflected on his face, he said softly: "I didn't want to break the door, I was calculating how much time we could get oxygen."

“…”

"Two hours." He Yu finally put down the stopwatch and looked back at Xie Qingcheng, "We still have two hours."

Here is the answer to this death math problem. If there is no accident, after two hours, the entire closed cabin will be filled with water.

Xie Qingcheng did not speak, and subconsciously touched a cigarette from his pocket.

The cigarette case is empty.

He remembered that he was outside just now, and He Yu had already taken the last cigarette.

"...Fuck you, why do you smoke me." Xie Qing squeezed the cigarette case irritably and threw it aside.

"What time is it, you still say that you don't smoke."

Xie Qingcheng raised his eyes to look at He Yu, still irritable: "Then why the **** do you keep following me when you have nothing to do."

“…”

The more you talk, the more annoying you are: "...I tell you He Yu, if you didn't come along, there would be no such thing. You really asked for it."

He Yu: "If I didn't come, you might be dead by now."

"..." Xie Qing said coldly, "Clean. I'll be the only one who will die like that."

He Yu's heart tightened inexplicably: "Xie Qingcheng, are you ... thinking it's not worth it for me?"

Xie Qingcheng replied with a sullen face: "I think it is so clear that no one owes anyone. No one will take my last cigarette."

"..." He Yu's face was splendid, and he approached him while wading in the water, "Do you know what it means to die."

"I'm a doctor. You don't think I know what it means to die?"

He Yu said: "Really? But I think you are a lunatic."

The sound of water in the cabin is constant.

Xie Qingcheng looked away from He Yu.

He did not argue with He Yu anymore, but took out his mobile phone and swiped the screen - but the miracle did not happen, the signal source was still zero, and the alarm call did not penetrate the barrier.

What He Yu didn't expect was that Xie Qingcheng found a jellyfish video from the album after the call failed, and clicked it to start watching.

"..." He didn't know whether he thought Xie Qingcheng's sense of black humor was too heavy, or this person was too calm and terrifying.

He stared at Xie Qingcheng's drooping eyelashes: "You still have this mood... We can't go out for two hours. You don't have to look at the jellyfish, we can become jellyfish ourselves."

Xie Qingcheng said: "What can we do now."

He Yu choked.

They really have nothing to do.

In addition to waiting to be discovered.

He Yu leaned against the iron gate beside Xie Qingcheng, stood side by side with him, watching the floating jellyfish.

"Do you think this time is a follow-up to the radio and television tower incident?"

"Not necessarily, probably not."

The water elf swaying gently, accompanied by the ethereal music box sound in the mobile phone, has some ability to comfort people.

"If it's them, then you and I don't have to wait until now, most of them are already dead."

After the radio and television tower incident, He Yu and Xie Qingcheng were already exposed to the mysterious organization. But for so long, the other party has not made another move. This shows that the cost of killing the two of them outweighs the benefits. The criminal group is not a single perverted murderer. They generally have their own purpose behind what they do, rather than killing them for fun, especially those who have received high attention from the society. People, the group is very clear that if you take this kind of person carelessly, you will splatter all over with blood, and the gain will outweigh the loss.

What's more, Xie Qingcheng and He Yu were trapped this time because of coincidence - the studio was ordered by Xie Qingcheng himself, and He Yu himself wanted to follow Xie Qingcheng. It's also totally possible to leave outside.

The murderer wanted to kill them, probably just because they saw the scene of Mr. Hu's murder. Just like the currently missing deputy editor and the executive, they had to do it.

A video of water spirits was finished, Xie Qingcheng watched another video.

He Yu suddenly said at this time: "Xie Qingcheng, I have been following you, in fact, because I still want to know the answers to those things."

"Answer to what."

"You know."

Xie Qing was quiet for a while, then suddenly asked, "Can you give me a cigarette?"

"...you know I don't—"

Xie Qingcheng's peach blossom eyes are very calm: "You know I won't."

The two stopped talking again, and the cabin fell silent again.

In this silence, they did not talk about Hu Yi, deputy editor or executive. He Yu and Xie Qingcheng are the same in this regard. They are not idly watching the dangers of people, but neither will waste time on fear and meaningless speculation.

Reasoning only makes sense if you have a destiny.

If you die...

Xie Qingcheng's choice was to watch the jellyfish video and wait calmly.

He Yuxiang, what about yourself?

Although at this moment, He Yu still feels that his fate is unstoppable, and the feeling of desperation is still far away.

But he couldn't help thinking—

What if this were the last two hours?

What he wants to do.

What is he going to do?

He Yu thought about it for a while, but the broken and flashed pictures made him feel absurd and a little pathetic, so he threw away those thoughts.

Time ticks by.

The horizontal line has reached the chest.

The water pressure makes the heart a little suffocated, and the height of the water line is no longer suitable for viewing mobile phones.

The floating objects accumulated in the cabin all floated on the water at this time. He Yu found two plastic boxes and gave one to Xie Qingcheng, and asked him to put his mobile phone inside.

"Although it is said that it is waterproof, it is better not to believe the words of these businessmen."

Xie Qingcheng didn't say much, in the glistening water, his face was too pale, and the color of his lips was much lighter than usual.

He is afraid of the cold.

Not only is he afraid of the cold, but the claustrophobic space and the rising water level are also stimulating his brain.

He closed his eyes, his dark eyelashes like a falling curtain.

The water level is a little higher.

Now He Yu and Xie Qingcheng must swim on the water, because the water level has exceeded two meters.

Xie Qingcheng raised his eyes and looked at the ceiling that was closer.

He kept holding on to hope because he felt that there might be a breakthrough at the zenith.

The walls here are smooth and there is no point of borrowing. You can only see the structure of the ceiling by buoyancy when the water level rises to a sufficient height. Most of the ceilings of this kind of studio have plywood, and they will not be completely capped with bricks. As long as they find that hollow position, they may be able to go out.

Before this, Xie Qingcheng didn't want to consume too much physical strength, let alone lose his calm emotions.

Time is passing little by little, the water level is still moving up, getting higher and higher, and they are getting closer and closer to the ceiling...

He Yu was lying on his back on the water, and I have to say that he is the best companion in this situation. When a normal person encounters such a thing, he should cry to death if he is not scared crazy, but He Yu Give different.

He sees death as a car on the street, he will try to avoid collision with it, but he will not be afraid of the car itself.

"Xie Qingcheng, I know what you are thinking, you think we can go out through the zenith."

“…”

Because the water storage volume is too large, it has flooded the break of the water pipe, and the water pours directly into the pool, so there is no such noisy rushing sound.

The surroundings seemed quieter, as if they were in a space that did not belong to the world, in the depths of the sea.

"But what if you can't find that plywood?"

“…”

"What if the last road is also a dead end."

“…”

He Yu picked up his mobile phone from the plastic box floating beside him, showing the countdown he had set.

"Then we have less than an hour left."

"And then to die."

"Did you ever think we would die together unexpectedly like this. Die here."

"I know you're not afraid, but do you have any regrets?"

Xie Qingcheng closed his eyes and said softly, "Don't talk so much."

"If I die, I won't be able to speak."

“…don’t think too much about it.”

He Yu suddenly said, "Xie Qingcheng, are you cold now?"

“…”

"I can hear the trembling in your voice. Actually, I'm quite cold too. Fortunately, it is two hours. If it is four hours, according to the current weather, we don't have to drown. Frozen to death. Hypothermia."

Young men and mature men are different after all. In the face of death threats, young men speak more than mature men.

Xie Qingcheng thought, He Yu was still too young after all, seeing the robes of the God of Death, it is not bad to be able to maintain such a state. But he thought again, He Yu really had blood mold and asked for trouble, so he had to pester himself to come to such a ghost place.

As a result, two levels were closed.

"You can get out." Xie Qingcheng said, "There is a pipe opening on the edge of the roof, and now you can see the crack in the ceiling, which is very thin. You don't need to be too nervous."

He Yu smiled: "I'm not nervous."

“…”

"I just feel sorry. Xie Qingcheng, I really regret it. I want to tell others a lot of things, and I want to know a lot of things. If I really can't get out—"

"It must be out."

“…Why are you so sure.”

"Because now is not the time to give up. There is no point in hesitating if you are not going to give up."

He Yu sighed softly after hearing what he said.

"You know what? I'm not hesitating, I just want to do the worst - if I really want to drown here, at least I want to live a little more clearly before I die ."

"How about you?"

"Even if you die, won't you tell me the truth?"

"If everyone is cold, the truth doesn't matter."

He Yu quietly looked at the glittering ceiling, such a dangerous scene, but these lights were beautiful: "But someone once said that the truth is never meaningless."

"The truth can decide whether what is buried in the tomb is regret or relief."

“…”

"If you don't want to speak, I have a lot to say."

Xie Qingcheng: "You have enough energy."

He Yu smiled: "Ah, I'm not full of energy, you know best."

“…”

I really convinced him, to this point, I can still speak two inconspicuous yellow accents.

After he finished laughing, He Yu stood up on the sparkling water with hazy eyes, he said, "Xie Qingcheng, I have never had a good chat with you before."

"You know why I hate you so much? I've never hated a person so much."

"I know because you think I lied to you."

"No."

"No." He Yu murmured, said it again, and said, "...because I have never believed in a person like I believed in you."

He never said such a straight word before.

But now he said it.

"You don't know the truths you told me before, how much courage you gave me to live."

“…”

"But you took that courage from me again."

“…”

"I'm cold, Xie Qingcheng."

“…”

"I don't know why you lied to me like this, why you can pretend to be so similar."

The water was so cold that it got into the bone marrow.

He Yujing was quiet for a while, and then said: "Actually, I poured the first glass of wine at the Kongye Club that day."

"I didn't mean to do this to you in the first place. But—" He slammed and rolled over in the water, from floating on his back to treading water, with only one head exposed. .

Xie Qingcheng was still up on the water, He Yu swam a little forward, and his chest touched the top of Xie Qingcheng's head.

He just looked down at Xie Qingcheng's face with his eyes closed.

He was very resentful, and it was time for Xie Qingcheng to be so cold that he refused to even open his eyes to look at him.

He Yu made fun of him because of this, suddenly lowered his head and kissed Xie Qingcheng's cold lips.

One of them was lying on the water and the other was standing in the water. When he bowed his head and kissed him, Xie Qingcheng suddenly opened his eyes.

"You—"

"I don't have any regrets, I don't like men, I've never liked men, but you make me very satisfied." He Yu looked at him, and his warm breath was cold in Xie Qing. "Although I don't know why."

“…”

"If we can go out this time, I'm going to open a room with you, do nothing but sleep with you all day. The words are hopeless, but I still have hope to find other voices that I like to hear from your mouth. I will spend a day and a night with you, and when the New Year's holiday is over, I will go to you every day when I return to Shanghai. I'm looking for you at home, and I'm going to bed with you throughout the holidays. I'll be there every day. Unless you go out without your phone, I'll always find a way to find you."

Xie Qingcheng didn't expect him to be so unreliable, and he straightened up from the water, from lying on his back to standing on the water, facing He Yu.

"Is something wrong with you."

"Probably, a new disease, I don't know what it is." He Yu approached him in the water, the dim light perched on his eyelashes, and the water light scattered around them, " Go out and give me a good cure. Lie under me and cure me..."

Xie Qingcheng couldn't listen anymore, so he simply pressed his head into the water.

"You will die here."

He Yu was pressed for a while, and then floated up again - Xie Qingcheng just scolded him, but after all, he was measured and didn't use much effort.

He Yu came up like a mermaid out of water, stained with crystal water droplets, he hugged Xie Qingcheng, put his wet lips on it again, and sucked at different angles With cold, shivering lips. This kiss seemed to be different from the previous one. It suppressed some kind of emotion that neither of the two parties could understand. The kiss was warm and lingering, as if to dispel the chills around him and win hope.

"Brother..."

In the accident that is not sure whether death will come, He Yu finally whispered a few words to Xie Qing—

With resentment, unwillingness, loss, loss.

But more, it is a kind of emotion similar to grievance that has not appeared for a long time.

"You know what, those words were just a few understatements to you."

"But for me, that's been my whole backbone for the past ten years."
