Every second after I came down from the rooftop, I felt like I was sitting on pins and needles.

I think behind us there is always a camera like the yellow bird. As confidential people, all of our whereabouts are exposed under their noses. Maybe Lin Zheyu is sitting upright in Gao Ping's laboratory, calculating the time when I lie down on the operating table in front of the clock.

Haha, have you been waiting for a long time?

The little prince and his team studied until dawn. The thing on the rooftop was a device that could detect the air flow rate in the pipe and then convey the data through the transmitter.

After dawn, the little prince took Adjutant Li to the city, and then he used some method to get an old black and white photo from twenty years ago. We ignored the passengers above and saw that the Baigongshan Hotel had not been established twenty years ago, and at the location we are currently at, there is a sandstone slope of one-third of the size of Baigongshan.

It turns out that the location of this hotel is also very particular. The pipes in the wall have been here since the beginning. The founders did not change their shape and direction. They just added a hotel coat to the hillside based on their original appearance and hid the pipes in the wall.

Then these pipelines are connected to Baigong Mountain and Tosu Lake.

I think the things that flow slowly in the tube are actually that kind of viscous nutrient solution. In this way, the sound I hear at night must be the nutrient solution that drives the air in the well-connected pipeline.

So once the Yellow Bird and the others have obtained the airflow data, they can definitely infer the flow direction and flow of the nutrient solution—

They worked so hard to run the bleak Baigongshan Hotel, and what they wanted was actually the things in the pipeline. And these things should have originated from the bottom of the lake. When Chao Wendao was fished out from the lake, wasn’t there a small piece of dark green sticking on my feet?

Gao Ping's research cannot be separated from nutrient solution. This kind of thing is extremely rare for ordinary people. It turns out that the way he gets it is through the Baigongshan Hotel here!

Brother Rat was tilted absent-mindedly on the chair for a long time. He held the cell phone seized from the old man in his hand, and there was a number on it from his senior brother Chunsheng who had been missing for many years.

Should I call him? Should I scold him? Or, are the two of them pretending to have nothing to know about talking about it?

Brother Mouse noticed that I was worried and smiled relaxedly:

"It doesn't make sense to call this phone. It's better to treat it as something we don't notice..."

He played with his cell phone for a while, then took a look at the time, stuffed it into his pocket: "Okay, we still have some serious things to do. Master Dong should have entered Delingha City!"

When he heard that Donghuang finally returned to us, his heart felt like he had a reassurance. With him, we had a leader and direction, as if all his decisions would undoubtedly lead us out of the mud.

The ever-changing clouds slowly drifted over my head, and the wind on the plateau blew my hair in a mess. It turned out that my hair had grown so long in the past few years.

When Mr. Dong got out of the car, I almost didn't recognize him! In just one week, he had a few strands of white hair on his temples and his burly figure was a little hunched. He looked at me, and although he smiled affectionately, he called "Little Sister", his eyes were covered with red bloodshots, and it was obvious that his mental state was very poor.

"Mr. Dong, you...what is wrong with you?"

He arranged for several men to move all the supplies in the car. I felt so distressed when I watched him suddenly getting old.

"It's nothing, just dealing with some housework."

His voice was hoarse, and I was about to cry for no reason: "Are you too tired and have no rest? We shouldn't urge you to come so urgently..."

"Silly girl, I'm the captain!" He freed up his rough hands and touched my head, then paused his eyes, and moved his eyes from my face to another place, "It's important to do it. Move all the diving equipment you want back to your room and rest!"

I nodded and went to help him pull the suitcase, knowing in my heart that Mr. Dong must have experienced some exhausted things in the past few days after he left. Why, he had just avoided my eyes, and at that moment he looked at me as if he had thought of something, and his expression froze for a second.

He didn't say anything, I didn't ask much. Of course, everyone could see that Mr. Dong was in a wrong condition. We piled up a whole vehicle of equipment into the room. Mr. Dong was a little sweaty and took off his coat and hung it on the hanger.

We were stunned to see a strip of white cloth tied to his right wrist.

In Chinese customs, this means "dressing in mourning". It is not in ancient times, and no one can really wear mourning clothes and stay in front of the graves of relatives and friends for three years. Some places have simplified this custom, cut a strip of cloth from the mourning clothes and tied it to your body, even if it is mourning for mourning.

The housework that Mr. Dong returned to his hometown this time was actually... someone died!

None of us dared to ask, for fear that Mr. Dong, who was already tired, would be even more sad. But he noticed that we suddenly remained silent. When he saw that our eyes were all focused on the strip, he sighed and took the initiative to tell the reason:

"Aunt Xingcai has passed away."

My heart felt like someone was hit hard by me, Dong Xingcai... Has she passed away?!

"Oh... Master Dong, I'm sorry!" Brother Mouse poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over, patting him on the shoulder. Master Dong's condition obviously had not yet emerged from the grief of his relative's death. That aunt Xingcai was not only his blood relative, but also Jinye's old senior. I remember Master Dong once told us that the person who educated him from a prodigal son to a reliable and righteous young man was this aunt. Master Dong was her chosen successor in Jinye.

"I've prepared for a long time..." Master Dong took a sip of tea. It might be too hot. He sniffed and stopped for a while before continuing, "Aunt Xingcai is too old and her health has always been very poor. You all know that when she was pregnant with Dongdong in Nanhai... she was also a big sin. She was so peaceful that she had to survive to this age for a long time than we expected. We should actually be glad for her."

As Mr. Dong said, his voice was a little choked, and he was afraid of making a fool of himself in front of us, so he hurriedly pretended to cough and walked to the bathroom quickly. We all looked at each other and asked him to have a good rest, so he quickly closed the door and walked out.

"What a pity. I was thinking of finding an opportunity to visit Mr. Dong's house to visit the old senior!" The little prince was also in a very low mood. "I always feel that there are many puzzles that have not been solved. Maybe when the medicine is a little more developed, she can always cure her illness and always make her recall some of the past... But I forgot that when she couldn't speak, she ran all the way to our palace, it has been more than twenty years since now..."

The group sighed and returned to their rooms. I felt very regretful. Dongdong said that if there was no attempt at Dongxingcai, I would not have been born. Then if Dongxingcai was still alive, just as the little prince said, I would always have the opportunity to know my origin from her, but now...

How I want to visit the "Sister Xingcai" who takes good care of her on behalf of Liu Wanting!

The old man who had our cell phone confiscated was staying in the next room. We would definitely not let him inform Huang Que again, but if we think about it carefully, he was just an innocent worker and could not find any reason to be unfavorable to him. So we would just help him repair the broken door and lock him in it, and then temporarily put it under house arrest when our captain comes back before deciding.

At this moment, I wonder if he was infected by Master Dong's emotions, but he started crying silently next door, keeping talking about the name of his missing niece Wu Rile.

It was really a sad noon. I looked at the calm Tosu Lake from the window and thought of the short one-second escape that Master Dong showed when he faced me. I suddenly felt that Master Dong would not escape his youngest sister Xiao Liuyi. What he escaped must be Liu Wanting!

Everyone originally thought that they would wait for Mr. Dong to take a good nap to replenish their energy, and then tell him what we saw and heard. Unexpectedly, less than half an hour later, Mr. Dong knocked on our door with dark circles. A thin layer of sweat rose on his forehead, and his hair and beard were scattered in a mess, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare.

Thinking of me being in this state the other night, I thought to myself, could it be that he heard some sound from the pipe? But he was hoarse and opened his mouth stunned me:

"Wuri Le?Wuri Le!"

Brother Rat immediately knocked on the wall that was broken by us and shouted to the next door:

"I said to me, I know you are sad, but don't cry anymore, and don't stop talking nonsense, as it will affect my nap!"

"Who shouts 'Wurrile' again?"

"Oh, it's a big deal that has aroused you, right? It's an old man who remembers his little niece. If you're fine, you can continue to sleep for a while. When you get better, we'll tell you all the particularly complicated things here!"

Chao Wendao was afraid that Master Dong would catch a cold after running out of the quilt, so he quickly put on a piece of clothing for him.

"Wurrile... gave me a dream."

Master Dong sat on the chair in our room, his expression as if he was sleepwalking.

"**, I heard it right? Wurile gave you a dream??" The mouse helped him wipe his cold sweat, "Who is Wurile who gave you a dream?"

"Wait... Wait!" The little prince sat up straight from the floor like a corpse, "'Wurile'... I just said why does this name sound so familiar? Isn't that your girlfriend who had rejected you before was so shameless!"
