Chapter 12 The Wall

After we left Beijing, we never stopped all the way, especially during the few days we arrived in Delingha, everyone had to be quarreled in the middle of the night every day.

It’s not that I have a lot of things, but that these things have come to me automatically. I have no evidence, I only know intuition that there must be something hidden in this wall!

Brother Mouse is the most sensitive among us. He can even hear the sound of the air turning in his eyes, but he has also been pressing against the walls in the past two or three days, so why doesn’t even he notice it?

I shrugged, maybe it was the revelation of memories, maybe it was the innate sensitivity to certain things, anyway, I just admit that I have to figure it out before I can talk about it!

The old man in the hotel was tossed and tossed by me. His eyes were swollen, and the monster forced him to stand up. When he saw the faces of several of us, he rubbed his eyes and asked with a little trembling question.

"Has anyone ever done a larger decoration in this hotel?"

The little prince looked like the kind of underworld on TV with his face. The old man was stunned and said inexplicably: "Which type is considered a 'larger decoration'?"

"It's so big that it's so big that the wall has been removed and reshaped?"

"Impossible!" The old man simply rejected him, "In the past twenty years since the establishment of Baigongshan Hotel, there have been only more than 100 tourists who have stayed in total, and the facilities are rarely damaged. The biggest decoration here is to paint, which is to paint. In addition, there is only construction such as changing light bulbs. How could the walls here be reshaped!"

"Then this wall was set up at the beginning of its establishment..." Adjutant Li turned his pen, "Twenty years, it's not too long. The founder has not passed away yet. If he can find that person, he should know the answer."

"Oh, I still have to pay for that slap!"

The big star leaned against the door with a messy pink marshmallow, touching a lifehammer from there in his hand: "If you smash it, you will know what's inside!"

"If it doesn't work, why should I smash our wall? If the boss knows, I will..."

"Does go!"

The big star roared, screamed and rammed it on the snow-white wall with a hammer!

The room was very dry. With such a hammer, the wall was falling down. When the old man saw that it was too late to stop it, the wall must be repaired. We were also determined to be unyielding, so we simply sighed and agreed to let us continue to dig the wall.

“It doesn’t look different?”

The big star's hair was covered with white dust. When the dust settled, we went to see that the bricks in the wall were exposed, and no accidents happened except that!

Is my intuition wrong? It’s not right!

I rushed over and took the hammer, climbed onto the bed, changed to a digging point, and started to destroy it again, but... still... there was no, still no-

"when--"

My mouth was numb, and my hammer head was hit hard on a hard object, and almost flew out of my hand.

I knocked on a metal product, and it was the trick!

A few people suddenly became energetic. Brother Mouse also found a small hoe from his toolbox. We worked for more than ten minutes. Then, a piece of rusty pipe suddenly appeared from the wall.

"Fuck, there's something!"

Everyone, including the old man, was shocked at this moment. The pipe looked exactly the same as the pipes along Baigong Mountain and the Tosu coast!

"I never knew...how could this kind of thing be hidden in a hotel?!"

The old man came over and reached out and touched the wall near the pipe. The rust stuck on it made people unquestionably the year when the pipe was hiding here. It was embedded twenty years ago when the hotel was first established.

"Manager, did you not participate in the construction when this hotel was established?"

"At that time, I was still doing odd jobs in the city, and I never thought I would spend the rest of my life here!"

"That is to say, when you arrive, this hotel is a completed building?" The little prince wiped the dust covered with the bald head with the bed sheet, "Who is the 'boss' you have always called?"

"It's Boss Gao!"

"'Boss Gao'?" I suddenly felt nervous, "What does he look like? Is he in Delingha too?"

"No, this property belongs to him. We just need to report the situation of the hotel to him once. But there is usually nothing to say. There is no business here, and only an old guy like me will stay here and waste his life..."

"Gao Ping?" I blurted out the name, "Is the 'Boss Gao' you mentioned called 'Gao Ping'?!"

The surprised expression on the old man's face already represented his answer.

We never thought that this Baigongshan Hotel by the Tosu Lake was actually the asset of the President Gaoping, which means that this place is the territory of the Yellow Bird!

"Wait a minute, old guy, you said you would report the situation of the hotel from time to time to time to 'Boss Gao'. Will you say hello to him as long as a guest comes here?"

The little prince stood up suddenly. The old man became a little scared of us and whispered: "Of course, the ghost was almost dead. How could I not report to him?"

I sat back on the bed, feeling exhausted. The yellow bird already knew that we were here. They had more methods than us. So, President Gao, who was looking forward to my heart, has polished his scalpel in the laboratory in Kunlun Snow Mountain, looking forward to my delivery to the door!

"What are Gao Ping doing when he put this pipe into the wall and hides it?"

Adjutant Li opened a new page in the book and drew the exposed pipes: "Where are the other rooms? What are the trends of these pipes in the hotel? Where are they coming in and where are they going?"

Seeing that Brother Mouse and the big star raised the tools in their hands again, the old man waved his hand quickly:

"No, no, you can't destroy it anymore. If the wall is gone, the hotel will be demolished!" The old man shook his head repeatedly, "If my boss knows that I really can't afford to accompany him, I have to... I have to say it to him immediately!"

"You dare!"

The weirdo was even more angry than me when he heard the names of the people of the Yellow Bird. He grabbed the old man's hand that reached into his pocket and took out the cell phone there.

"Brother Dao, don't hurt the innocent, it's nothing he has to do." The little prince lit a cigarette, "It's too late to say that. Gao Ping and the others already know our itinerary. It seems... when Song Dana and the others came, they had heard of it!"

I was fiddling with the old man's cell phone, and I thought to myself that with Gao Ping's phone number, could we just talk to each other directly? If I asked him if he had ever met a shopkeeper, would he tell us the truth?

But after carefully looking through it, there was no name Gao Ping in the correspondent starting with "g", and the word "boss" was not stored in the mobile phone.

"How do you... contact each other?"

"The boss's assistant told me."

"Didn't you contact Gao Ping directly?"

"The boss is so busy that it is impossible to ask about everything himself."

I quietly "snatched" her mouth. This simple old man really thought Gao Ping was a real estate boss busy with business! I called out his recent call record, and my heart suddenly jumped, then flattened my mouth and gave everyone a look:

The "assistant" the old man mentioned is Chunsheng.

Brother Mouse was stunned on the spot. This "Chunsheng" was Brother Mouse's former brother, the scar man I was afraid of before. He had an ordinary and difficult-to-recognize appearance. Like the dead Monkey Brother, he was also a member of the Yellow Bird.

Adjutant Li insisted on drawing the direction of the pipes in the wall. The old man saw that we had absolutely a grudge with his boss, and was afraid that we would really do the matter of demolishing the entire Baigongshan Hotel, so he asked us to wait for him for a while. After 5 minutes, he trembled and handed over with a drawing:

"I have mentioned the decoration of the White House Mountain Hotel before. The biggest move is to paint it once. I remember that there were some brown spots on the wall. We thought the wall was dysfunctional and moldy. Now I know that it should be that the rust inside grew out." The old man pointed to the part that drew red lines on the hotel design drawing. "These are the places that needed to be painted at that time. You should know where there is something hidden in the wall. Don't really smash the wall again!"

I squinted my eyes and couldn't understand the complex work of this architect. In fact, even if we smashed all the walls here, we might not be able to see the full picture of the pipes inside. The little prince thought about it and asked:

"It's okay not to tear down your store. You have been working here for twenty years, and you know every room and every passage, right? Then you can take a look at me, where do these walls with pipes start and end in the end!"

The old man watched us become eyeing each other and was not angry when he spoke. His phone also fell into our hands, so he had to stare at the drawings with his head hanging down, then pointed at the feet and said:

"Those who came in from the basement under the hall finally... climbed up along the wall and stopped at the small rooftop on the top floor?"

There are three floors in Baigongshan Hotel. We slept on the second floor, so those pipes run through the building and go to the top of our heads.

Everyone started to run up the stairs with their shoes in their shoes. The night was already very deep. When we pushed open the wooden door of the rooftop, the stars in the sky seemed to be scattering on us.

No one was interested in watching the scenery at this moment. We went up carefully. Apart from the flashing neon signs on the deserted Gobi Desert, the only one that was lit was the green light of Baigong Mountain.

We compared the sketch and carefully groped on the dirty rooftop, and finally stopped beside a large pile of cables.

"Ah, these... these are cable TV and water heater controls in the hotel."

"Is there any network in the store?" The little prince reached out and peeled off the colorful and messy ball of thread, "and found a box stuck to the signal transmitter."

"This...no, there is no one here."

"That's really a big deal..." The little prince fiddled with the device I didn't know at all. "It turns out that the yellow bird got these pipes in to facilitate monitoring the movements of things in the pipes!"
