Chapter 290 Human Traffickers Deserve to Die 35
As she advanced, the ventilation duct began to branch. Sirong paused, listening carefully to the sounds around her. She needed to determine which path would bring her closer to her target area while avoiding the sight of the people in the casino.
"Xiao 5, can you scan the path ahead? See which ventilation duct can lead me around the casino area?"
Sirong asked quietly in her mind, hoping that Xiao 5 could provide some help.
[Scanning...] Xiaowu's voice sounded in her mind, with a hint of mechanical calmness.
[Host, the ventilation duct on the left side of the front leads to a storage room. It's unattended and should be the best entry point. The duct on the right leads to a monitoring room, but that room is currently guarded, so I don't recommend you choose it.]
Sirong nodded, slightly adjusted her posture, and continued to crawl slowly along the ventilation duct on the left.
The air inside the pipe was a little turbid, and Sirong tried her best to remain calm, taking every step carefully.
Finally, she came to the fork in the ventilation duct, carefully stuck her head out, and observed the situation inside the storage room.
As expected, the place was empty, save for some simple lockers and miscellaneous items. It was an ideal temporary hiding place, and could also serve as a springboard for her to enter.
Sirong gently pushed open the vent cover and silently jumped down. She quickly looked around and made sure no one was paying attention before she breathed a sigh of relief.
The moment her feet touched the ground, the first thing Sirong did was to contact Xiao 5. But all she received was a sporadic reply.
[Host, I guess we'll lose contact if you leave the vent in a while...] Xiao 5's voice was mixed with a slight sound of electricity, seeming a little unstable.
Sirong frowned slightly, she understood what this meant.
The signal of the Xiao5 is being seriously interfered with, and this interference may be more obvious after leaving the vent.
[…I’ve sent the structural diagram of this place to your phone. If you need me, try to find a place as close to the ventilation vent as possible and try to contact me.]
Xiao 5's voice sounded again, although it was intermittent, the message was very clear.
Sirong quickly pulled out her phone and checked the structural diagram Xiao 5 had sent her. The diagram detailed the key areas of the ancient tomb and casino, including the storage room, the monitoring room, and the main tomb chamber.
Sirong quickly scanned the structural diagram, memorizing the key paths and possible hiding places.
She put away her phone, already having a preliminary plan of action in mind.
She exhaled softly and quickly looked around to confirm that there were no other potential threats in the storage room. Then, she quietly approached the door of the storage room, gently pushed it open a crack, and observed the situation outside.
The corridor was empty and strangely quiet, with only faint noise coming from the direction of the casino in the distance.
Sirong's steps were slow and cautious, afraid to break the silence. She turned slightly and looked to her right. There were bright lights there, obviously the casino.
Sirong muttered to herself, her gaze passing through the shadows of the corridor and falling on the brightly lit area.
The place was bustling with activity, people at the gambling tables engrossed in their games, chips dancing between their fingers, completely immersed in the luxurious atmosphere. She could imagine it must be bustling with activity, filled with the hustle and bustle of a modern city.
However, this place is in stark contrast to her surroundings.
"This should be the staff area."
Sirong made a quick decision. She glanced toward the casino, then decisively turned and headed in the opposite direction. Her mission wasn't to infiltrate the casino, but to delve into this thoroughly reconstructed ancient tomb and search for clues to the missing students.
As she walked forward, the environment on both sides of the corridor gradually became clear.
This ancient tomb has been completely renovated, and the exterior walls are covered with white wooden boards, as if giving this thousand-year-old tomb a modern coat.
Wall lamps were installed on the walls, emitting a soft glow that illuminated the path ahead. At regular intervals, a surveillance camera rotated left and right, vigilantly watching everything around.
Sirong's steps became lighter and lighter, and her body pressed against the wall, trying her best to avoid the sight of the surveillance cameras.
She quietly crossed the corridor, avoiding the sight of several surveillance cameras, and successfully reached a corner. This was a relatively safe hiding place. She stopped and quickly took out her phone to check the structural diagram sent by Xiao 5.
"The monitoring room should be not far ahead."
Sirong mentally confirmed her next course of action, then stood up again and continued along the planned route. Her figure merged silently into the transformed ancient tomb like a ghost, as if she had never existed.
Sirong arrived at the door of the monitoring room. Her heartbeat quickened slightly, but her breathing remained steady.
She gently pushed the door open a crack, observing the situation inside with eyes as sharp as a hawk.
The monitoring room wasn't large, but it was filled with a modern, technological atmosphere. Inside sat two burly men with tattoos on their arms, wearing hurdle vests. Their muscular arms were intricately tattooed. They each held a bottle of beer and chatted leisurely.
They looked relaxed, completely unaware of any unusual movements in the outside world.
In front of them was a whole wall of display screens, with the screen divided into multiple images.
Videos from every angle of the casino are transmitted here, and no corner escapes the surveillance cameras. From the gamblers at the tables to the security guards at the entrances and exits, every detail is clearly visible.
Sirong quickly assessed the situation, thinking rapidly in her mind.
Although the two big men seemed relaxed, their eyes would scan the display screen from time to time to check if there was anything unusual.
Sirong closed the door gently and continued walking along the corridor.
After turning a corner, the walls on both sides no longer have wall panel decorations, revealing the actual wall bricks of the tomb passage.
This tomb chamber was really big, and Sirong walked around for a long time.
On the top floor of a five-star hotel of Dingsheng Group, Qin Haoran and Qin Haoming had just completed a threesome of life harmony with a little star.
After sending the little star away, the two began to talk about business.
Qin Haoran sat on the large leather sofa, shaking a wine glass in his hand, his brows slightly frowned. His younger brother Qin Haoming sat on the leather sofa opposite him, his posture relaxed, with a nonchalant smile on his face.
"Is there any problem with the group's listing next month?" Qin Haoran finally spoke, his voice low and powerful, revealing the majesty of someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
"Everything is fine." Qin Haoming nodded, his tone relaxed. "All the documents have been prepared, and the CSRC has also taken care of it. There won't be any problems."
Qin Haoran nodded, but his frown still didn't fully relax. "What about those students?"
