Global Exploration: Starting from Decrypting Chernobyl

53: Secrets in the kitchen! Breaking the door violently!“Tsk...”

Wu Tian sneered. He was already exploring the Peach Blossom Garden. How could there be a way back?

Pursing his lips, Wu Tian prepared to walk into the dark kitchen.

Suddenly.

“Ugh...”

A lazy groan came from behind Wu Tian, followed by the sound of hands fumbling over his body.

After a long while.

“Phew...”

Zhang Meng finally let out a long sigh of relief.

“My clothes are still on!”

“Thankfully, nothing happened...”

“That...”

“Wu Tian!”

“Huh?”

Wu Tian turned his head to look at Zhang Meng, who had suddenly woken up.

“You’re awake?”

“Mm...”

Zhang Meng nodded, scratching her still muddled head, and asked Wu Tian,

“What exactly happened just now?”

“Weren’t we here to explore? Why do I feel like...”

“I fell asleep just now?”

“And just now...”

Zhang Meng said blankly,

“It felt like there was an earthquake?”

“...”

Wu Tian looked at the bewildered Zhang Meng, then at the unconscious taxi driver on the ground.

His mouth twitched.

“No earthquake!”

“That was the sound of me hitting someone just now...”

“Ahem... let’s not talk about that for now!”

“Do you remember before dinner when I asked the Shopkeeper if he knew about Peach Blossom Garden?”

“I remember...”

Zhang Meng’s head was a bit foggy.

But she still nodded.

“He put a sedative in the mosquito coil and knocked both of you out!”

“...Oh~”

Zhang Meng’s eyes lit up.

She nodded, realizing belatedly.

“I remember now, I passed out!”

“That scoundrel, I knew there was something wrong with that Shopkeeper, he really is a bastard!”

“Then... what happened next?”

“Next?”

Wu Tian’s mouth curled into a smile.

He pointed to the Shopkeeper, who was lying lifeless in the corner, and the driver, who was unconscious in a pool of blood, and said,

“Later, this Shopkeeper’s combat strength was really exaggerated, and he had been dead for a long time.”

“So I killed him again!”

“That driver aided and abetted evil.”

“He tricked six groups of tourists like us here, and they all died here!”

“...”

“They all died?!”

Zhang Meng was just a normal person who had received a good education since childhood; she had never encountered such sordid affairs.

Upon hearing that so many people had died, her eyes widened instantly!

“Then he...”

“Passed out!”

“Damn it!”

Upon hearing that he had only passed out, Zhang Meng instantly exploded, raising her foot and furiously kicking the unconscious driver on the ground!

Bang!

“Scoundrel!”

Bang!

“Beast!”

Bang!

“You’re not human!”

Bang... “Hey, hey...”

Looking at Zhang Meng, who was even fiercer than him when hitting people, Wu Tian rubbed his forehead and stopped her.

“Calm down, he’s already been knocked out by me.”

“If you hit him again, he’ll die!”

“It’s not worth getting involved in a murder case; it’s better to leave it to the investigators to handle!”

“We won’t bother with it!”

“Hmph...”

Zhang Meng took two deep breaths.

She sat on the stool and slowly calmed down. Looking at the messy, dim restaurant, she then remembered to ask Wu Tian if he had found any clues when dealing with these two people.

“Oh, right.”

“Did you get any clues about Peach Blossom Garden from these two?”

“I feel like everyone in this village, especially this Shopkeeper, must be involved with Peach Blossom Garden!”

“Those two...”

Wu Tian’s mouth twitched.

He secretly blamed himself for being too heavy-handed... “I didn’t get a chance to ask.”

“However...”

Wu Tian pointed to the dark kitchen.

“I feel like there should be the information we want in that kitchen.”

“I was just about to go in and look before you woke up!”

“Oh?”

Zhang Meng’s eyes lit up.

“Then what are we waiting for?”

With that, Zhang Meng got up, pulled Wu Tian, and rushed into the kitchen... “Brothers, I originally thought the Host’s hitting people was already exaggerated, but I didn’t expect Miss Zhang Meng to be just as ruthless when she hits people!”

“Upstairs, stop talking, I’m a bit constipated!”

“Ah, this...”

“The Host and Zhang Meng went to investigate clues, why is no one looking after Fatty?”

“Fatty?”

“Fatty is sleeping so soundly, can you wake him up?”

“My heart aches for my mascot, they’re both exploring together, and you’re still sleeping!”

“Upstairs, watch your wording, you’re being inappropriate!”

“Who said my heart aches for Fatty?”

“Perhaps... Fatty is happier in his dreams?”

... “Smack, smack...”

Just as the Fans in the bullet comments were discussing wildly, Fatty smacked his lips contentedly a few times, turned over, and continued to sleep.

“Woo...”

“Flower girl!”

... “Rustle, rustle...”

Inside the quiet kitchen, two sets of footsteps echoed.

“Where’s the light?”

“Is there a light? I can’t see anything.”

Zhang Meng poked Wu Tian next to her.

“No light...”

Wu Tian looked exasperated.

“I don’t know what this guy was thinking, not even installing a light in the kitchen. I don’t know how he cooked!”

“Forget it!”

Wu Tian sighed.

After roughly observing the kitchen’s layout, he pointed to a passage on the left for Zhang Meng.

“You go left, I’ll go right.”

“Let’s search quickly.”

“I always feel like these Villagers are also acting strangely...”

“...”

“Okay!”

Zhang Meng paused.

Then she quickly understood the key point from Wu Tian’s words!

If these Villagers in the village really had problems, they might have already alerted them during the day.

Then tonight... things might change!

Without another word, she turned and walked to the left.

The two, one left and one right, searched the kitchen thoroughly.

“...”

Now that the owner was dead, Wu Tian and Zhang Meng naturally had no scruples. They directly overturned any baskets, basins, buckets, or wooden boards they encountered during their search.

The places they searched were a mess!

“Thud!”

Suddenly!

Just as Zhang Meng irritably threw a bucket aside, the bucket hit the ground, making a strange sound.

“Hmm?”

Zhang Meng froze.

Then she quickly went to where the bucket had hit, knelt down, and observed.

“Here...”

Zhang Meng gently tapped with her hand!

“Clang, clang...”

Indeed!

Zhang Meng showed an understanding expression!

“Wu Tian!”

“Huh?”

“Here, there’s something here, come and see!”

“Okay!”

Wu Tian immediately put down what he was doing, circled around, and came to Zhang Meng’s side.

“Listen.”

“Clang, clang!”

Zhang Meng gently tapped the ground beneath her feet twice more.

“This... is hollow?”

Wu Tian’s eyes also lit up.

“Mm!”

“But...”

Zhang Meng’s expression was a bit dejected.

“This place seems to be controlled by some mechanism. The top stone slab is seamlessly connected to the ground. If we don’t find the mechanism, I’m afraid we won’t be able to open it...”

“Crack!”

Wu Tian withdrew his fist.

“There.”

“It’s open!”
