The effect wasn’t bad; at least she had never been here, so for these few days, there had been no discoveries.
But now, Bai Zhi pinched her nose and walked in.
It was very dirty, as if it had never been cleaned, and the stench was so overwhelming that she felt like turning around and leaving immediately.
"Xingxing, it just smells so bad..."
Bai Xin could only feel the gross smell; so foul that she barely could detect any other odors while pinching her nose.
"It’s because it’s so foul that you can’t smell anything else, Auntie, let’s clean it up."
The two of them put on thick masks and began to clean, throwing away all the trash, and cleaning up...
Half an hour later, the bathroom was clean.
They could hardly keep from vomiting.
Only then did Bai Zhi start to scrutinize this small space, a mirror, a sink, a flushing toilet...
Just these few things, but there was still quite a lot of space, which meant there was something here.
Bai Zhi began to look...
"Xingxing, what are you looking at?"
Bai Xin didn’t quite understand; everything seemed visible at a glance.
"Looking for something..." Bai Zhi narrowed her eyes and walked over. She reached for the sink, and at its base, she found a protrusion, which she pressed.
A door appeared out of nowhere.
Bai Zhi pushed it open to reveal a passage below.
"Auntie, wait here for me. If someone comes, you have to keep watch for me; I’m going to go down and have a look."
Below, it was pitch-black, making Bai Xin a bit anxious as she grabbed Bai Zhi’s hand.
"Xingxing, could it be dangerous?"
Bai Zhi gave Bai Xin a reassuring smile.
"Don’t worry, Auntie, I’m strong, and I have the Golden Needle."
If before Bai Zhi was only known for her strength, now she had Inner Strength. What was there to fear? Old Han and Bai Dan had given her all the good stuff. Whatever medicine and drugs there were, she was given to eat, all to ensure she could protect herself. Now, she could even face her former cheap master, Bai Yu, with a decent chance of winning.
So Bai Zhi went straight down.
The corridor was dark, Bai Zhi turned on her flashlight. A variety store, of course, they would have one; better use it than waste it.
Walking down, the area was quite large, and Bai Zhi finally smelled it, the scent of medicinal herbs.
Bai Zhi found the light switch and flicked it on, revealing the entire room before her.
Then, she saw him, a person who was about to attack her with a knife in hand, except this person looked extremely haggard, as if they could barely lift the knife.
The man wore a mask and asked Bai Zhi.
"Who am I? Who are you?"
Bai Zhi’s gaze surveyed the surroundings. This place was a laboratory, with various medicinal herbs and medicine powders, she even smelled the scent of... flowers.
Bai Zhi’s eyes lit up with a big smile. "Hello, Uncle, I’m Mu Yi’s niece. What is this place? Would you like some candy?"
Bai Zhi revealed an innocent smile, immediately pulling out a Golden Needle, with a flash of light, she shot it directly at the man.
The man was hit at once, the knife dropped to the ground, along with other weapons...
Bai Zhi inhaled sharply, this was really too dangerous.
Bai Zhi rushed up and closed the secret passage door.
"Auntie, go to the hospital now, and make a fuss with Mu Yi; there’s going to be trouble down here. I’ll stay and guard, you find Uncle and have him come over quietly, and have him go look for Grandpa..."
What lies beneath... is something that can make a person...
