Quick Wear: She Became the Beloved of the Short-lived Male Supporting Character

Chapter 240 The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role in the Thriller World (23)

Meng Xiulan walked to the closet, opened it, and saw the clothes hanging inside. She could tell at a glance that these clothes of the same style would be absolutely perfect for Cheng Su.

She felt something from her coat pocket. When Meng Xiulan took it out and looked at it, her eyes widened immediately. She held it tightly in her hand and put it in her pocket without saying a word.

Tao Xinling squatted on the ground with her back to her, fiddling with the safe all the time. She did find the method for this mechanical password safe in the drawer, but she couldn't open it without the password.

What's the password?

She thought of Cheng Su's birthday and planned to try to turn it to see if she could open it, but when she thought of the other people in the room, she restrained her impulse.

She quietly hid the method to open the combination lock inside her clothes.

Jiang Wan and Cheng Su were rummaging through the bookcase.

He picked up a book casually and kept an eye on the person who was a few steps away from him. She seemed to be in a good mood, humming a little tune happily, looking leisurely and calm, as if everything was under her control.

Just as she opened another book, something fell out of it.

Jiang Wan bent over and picked it up. It was a bookmark with words written clearly on it: Countless sufferings have created one shackle after another, and the soul is trapped in the thorns and can never be freed.

Jiang Wan handed the bookmark to Cheng Su, "Did the manager write this?"

Cheng Su raised his eyes, "Perhaps this can be a clue for you."

"It's the clues of the two of us."

As she spoke, she put the bookmark in her pocket, took out a new bookmark from the drawer, and then wrote a sentence on the bookmark: Even in the high mountains there are always paths for travelers, and even in the deep waters there are always ferrymen.

She wrote the time on the bookmark before putting it back in the book.

Han Dakun came out of the bathroom, and Meng Xiulan and the others also came out of the bedroom.

Several people stood in the living room, and Tao Xinling said, "There is a safe in the room, but we didn't find the password and don't know how to open it. What did you find?"

Meng Xiulan shook her head and sighed regretfully: "I didn't find anything."

Han Dakun's eyes flashed with unnaturalness, "Me too, I looked around but didn't find any useful information."

They turned their eyes to Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan leaned on the desk and said, "I have found a piece of information, but I don't want to share it for now. When you find a clue, we can share it with each other."

"You already have the clues, why don't you tell us? Don't you trust us?" Tao Xinling asked subconsciously.

"It's not that I don't believe it, but I think it's unfair. I worked so hard to find the clues, and then they told me to share them, but I don't have any. I would feel uncomfortable."

"But..." Tao Xinling bit her lower lip and didn't say anything else.

I thought she was a kind person, but I didn't expect her to be so selfish.

Forget it. I already have someone I suspect anyway.

Tao Xinling had a hunch that once she opened the safe, all her guesses would be answered.

"I...I'll go check out other rooms." Han Dakun said and left the room.

Tao Xinling also left with a cold face. She was going to look for the so-called self-defense weapon.

"Xinling is still young, and it seems that she grew up in a pampered environment, so it's inevitable that she has a little temper, but she's not a bad person. Don't be angry with her, there's no need." Meng Xiulan asked the two people in a kind tone, "I plan to stay in the room for a while, do you want to continue looking for clues in the room, or go outside to look for them?"

"Cheng Su and I are going to the lobby." Jiang Wan said lightly.

The registration book is at the counter.

Jiang Wan lay on the counter, flipping through the registration information form.

The register not only contains their registration contents, but also some strange registration information.

She compared the bookmarks in her hand, turned to the end, and made room for the reader. "Come and see whose handwriting is most similar to the one on the bookmark."

Cheng Su knew who it was without having to flip through the pages. He flipped through the pages twice and looked at her with his dark eyes. "What do you think?"

Jiang Wan smiled and said, "How about you exchange some useful information that I don't know with me, and I will share my guesses with you?"

Cheng Su lowered his eyes, closed the registration book, and tightened his grip on the book.

"That doesn't sound like a good deal."

"Just consider it a blessing in disguise." She said in a relaxed tone.

Cheng Su was confused and puzzled. She must be doubting herself. Why did she still look like nothing had happened, talking and laughing?

Is she really not afraid?

Seeing him in a daze, Jiang Wan took back the bookmark and carefully put it in her pocket, "Why are you looking at me like that? Are you really afraid of being at a disadvantage?"

Cheng Su twisted his fingers and suddenly asked, "Do you want to kill him?"

"Who was killed?" Jiang Wan asked.

Cheng Su pursed her lips into a straight line. He suspected that she was pretending to be ignorant even though she knew the truth.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jiang Wan couldn't help but sigh and leaned lazily on the counter. "Human nature has always been dark. Are you saying that Han Dakun and the others didn't find any clues? Anyway, I don't believe it, but everyone is unwilling to take out the evidence they found because they want to hold on to the powerful bargaining chips and want to leave here alive.

You asked me whether I would kill him. At the moment, I cannot give an answer to this question because I am not sure whether he is willing to give me a chance to live.

When it comes to life and death, almost everyone will make the choice that is best for themselves. There is a saying that goes, being kind to your enemy is being cruel to yourself.

Or are you going to tell me that when your life is threatened, you don’t want to solve those dangerous factors, but are willing to die?"

He avoided the question, not even daring to look her in the eye, "I'll go somewhere else, you can do whatever you want."

Cheng Su entered the elevator and lowered his eyes to stare at his bloody hands.

What did he do when his life was threatened?

Naturally, those who overestimate their own abilities will be killed without any hesitation.

But whenever he thought that she would choose to kill herself, it was as if a pair of invisible hands were tearing his heart apart.

The elevator stopped on the eighth floor and he walked out with a pale face.

I happened to meet Meng Xiulan in the corridor.

Fear flashed in her eyes, but she quickly calmed down and said, "Do you want to go to the manager's office to look for clues again?"

Cheng Su nodded without saying anything.

"Oh oh oh, then you look for it. I'll go down first." Meng Xiulan clenched her hands tightly, her nails leaving a row of crescent marks on the palms. The pain reminded her not to reveal any flaws.
