Chapter 1697: The Magical Blueprint 1

Before long, a fine layer of sweat had already beaded on her forehead.

Sheng Hanyu turned and walked out with light footsteps; soon, he returned holding a cup of warm milk, which he placed beside his wife's right hand.

Milk can help relieve tension, though cold milk is of course better.

However, it was already the middle of the night, and cold milk is not good for the stomach.

So he had specifically warmed it up; it wasn't too hot to drink, and it was just right now. Sheng Hanyu was decisive and ruthless at the company, yet he was meticulous, gentle, and considerate toward his wife.

Shi Youxuan picked up the milk and drank it in one gulp.

She reached out her hand naturally without even lifting her eyelids, and Sheng Hanyu took the cup away.

After many years of marriage, the two of them had developed such a rapport that they were like one person!

Shi Youxuan calmed down and began to hack into the Jiang University surveillance system again. Time ticked by second by second, and finally, she succeeded!

Starting from this morning, the three of them snuck out of the dormitory, walked straight south, and then disappeared.

Soon, they entered the Cafeteria.

It was still early and the students hadn't arrived yet; they went into the Cafeteria to the stalls and bought a large bag of steamed buns and meat dishes, then came out carrying a few bottles of water.

After coming out, the three of them continued walking south. Shi Youxuan wondered, "This doesn't look like the way back to the dormitory, nor does it look like the way to the teaching building. Where are they going? Carrying so much food, it looks like enough for the three of them to eat for two days."

Sheng Hanyu said, "Don't talk, keep watching, and then send it to A Ning; he is anxious over there."

"Okay."

Shi Youxuan continued to watch. The three of them got on a campus bus, arrived at the South Gate, and after getting off and leaving the school gate, they disappeared. Further south, it was no longer within the surveillance range of Jiang University.

To the south of Jiang University is the Agricultural University experimental field. The experimental field covers a vast area, and many places have no surveillance; finding three people in this area is not easy.

Shi Youxuan told Jian Yining that the last location where the three children appeared was the Agricultural University experimental field.

Jian Yining was puzzled: what were they doing going to the experimental field?

And it was on Agricultural University grounds, at that.

Youyou, Taotao, and Mengmeng are in the Architecture Department; what are they doing going to the Agricultural University?

But there was no one in the surveillance footage forcing them, and no one else was accompanying them; it should have been their own individual actions.

In the end, the group decided not to call the police and to go look for them themselves to see what they were actually doing. They had set off in the morning with so much dry food, so they were prepared and shouldn't be in any danger.

Shi Youxuan couldn't sleep at home either, so she decided to go along to help find them, and just happened to go to the Jian Family to pick up Wan'er before setting off.

The group had driven halfway when good news arrived.

Zihan got through to Youyou's cell phone and asked where they were.

She actually lied and said they were sleeping in the dormitory.

After the lie was exposed, Youyou said, "Mind your own business," and hung up the phone.

But even such a short call was not without effect; her signal was captured and located in a piece of abandoned saline-alkali land at the Agricultural College.

That area covers a vast expanse, but it is of no use.

It was originally prepared to improve the saline-alkali land environment, but the project was later halted because if it didn't succeed, the land couldn't be used for other purposes.

Moreover, although the Agricultural University has a lot of land, it is all very precious, and there was really no need to artificially turn it into saline-alkali land. Later, work stopped halfway through, and the teacher in charge of the project led the students to the Great Northwest.

After work on the saline-alkali land stopped, it became overgrown with green grass, and there were many water pits in the low-lying areas, looking like a small Swamp.

What were the triplets doing going there?

When Wan'er found out, a terrifying thought flashed through her mind. She shook her head vigorously to shake off this absurd idea. It was impossible; it absolutely couldn't be that. It was too absurd and too terrifying!

They arrived late on the road, and Jian Yining and Zichen's group found the triplets first; they found them underground.

The triplets were covered in dirt from head to toe, digging a tunnel in the saline-alkali land.

When Jian Yining found them, both sides were very surprised. The triplets asked in unison, "How did you get here?"

Zichen and the other brothers were speechless.

How did they find their way here?

Of course, it was for them.

Three young women running to such a desolate place in the middle of the night to dig a tunnel?

It was a good thing they didn't call the police; calling the police would have been mortifying.

Jian Yining was furious; he roared, "All of you, get out here!"

The triplets were afraid of nothing, but they were afraid of their father getting angry.

So they obediently came out, stood in front of their father in a row, standing straight and proper, waiting to be lectured!

It had been like this since they were small; they were used to it.

It was just that what they didn't expect was that their father didn't launch into a long-winded lecture as usual.

Instead, he didn't even look at them, and continued shouting into the tunnel: "All of you, get out here, did you hear me? You dare to do it but don't dare to admit it—what kind of men are you?"

Men?

The triplets looked at each other; at first, they were a bit confused, then they understood instantly.

So their father thought they still had accomplices?

Youyou: "Dad, stop shouting, there is no one inside, there are only the three of us here."

Taotao: "That's right, only us."

Mengmeng: "If you don't believe us, you can go see for yourself."

And so, Jian Yining really went down to take a look.

Sure enough, there was no one else.

He was very surprised and stayed down there for a long time before coming out.

When he came out, he was holding a blueprint in his hand and asked the triplets, "Where did this come from?"

Youyou said, "The three of us drew it."

Jian Yining said angrily, "Are you still going to lie at this point? Fine, I can't control you, but someone else can. Just wait, it won't be long before your mother arrives."

During the waiting interval, the group entered the tunnel to "take a tour."

It actually looked quite convincing.

Although they had only dug out a square room so far, the Underground Palace on the blueprints was magnificent and spectacular.

There were corridors and all sorts of rooms: a Study, a billiards room, a movie screening room, bedrooms, a living room, a treasure vault, a Monitoring Room... it had everything.

The Underground Palace on the blueprints was divided into several levels; there were no safety stairs connecting the floors, but rather a combination of elevators and secret passages!

Jian Yining stared at the blueprints again, his expression very complex.

He looked at the blueprints, then at the triplets; he seemed to have something he wanted to ask, but he kept it to himself, holding it back.

One hour later.

Shi Youxuan, her husband, and Wan'er arrived.

When the three of them saw the tunnel, the expressions on their faces were much like Jian Yining's—all full of complexity.

The children were completely bewildered, unable to figure out what was going on.

All four of them remembered the tunnel the Ji Family once had in the Swamp; of course, that was a very mature Underground Palace, and the one the triplets dug couldn't compare, but looking at the blueprints... it was very similar!

You couldn't say they were exactly the same, but they were similar in spirit!

The others were all fine; although shocked, they could still restrain themselves, but Wan'er was different.

Besides having a complex expression, she also appeared particularly agitated.

Wan'er's face turned deathly pale, and her body swayed violently; Shi Youxuan was quick-eyed and fast-handed, catching her so she didn't fall.
