Chapter 258: Museum! Should We Take a Gamble?

After a while, orderly footsteps came from not far away.

Qin Weiyang was alert subconsciously, took out a small knife, and looked coldly.

"Be careful, it seems someone is coming."

Su Yang poked his head out to look, and under the hazy moonlight, a team dressed in security uniforms walked toward their direction.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but feel puzzled in his heart.

"Could it be that the treasure hunters didn't act?"

At this very moment, it was already nearing 8:00 PM. According to Xue Yong's aggressive personality, it was impossible for him to sit still until now.

But this group of security guards had left their guarded area.

At this time, Qin Weiyang suddenly discovered something, and her small knife gripped tightly, "The leader seems to be..."

"It's a woman!"

Su Yang was slightly stunned, his gaze moved forward and he saw a familiar, beautiful face.

"Dong Ya?"

The leader was wearing a suit and high heels; carefully distinguishing, it wasn't hard to hear the sound of footsteps landing that was different from ordinary people.

At this time, she was chatting happily with the security captain, her face wrapped in smiles.

"She cleared away the defensive layout around the auditorium?" Qin Weiyang asked in surprise.

"It seems so, the Guardian finally couldn't help it." Su Yang nodded.

According to his hypothesis, even if Dong Ya had a crisis of trust in the alliance, she should have at least waited until 10:00 PM when "Eternal Night" appeared to act.

Acting now was a bit too rushed.

Suddenly, a light sound came from inside the door.

Su Yang turned his head to look and discovered that the lights of the cameras inside the museum had all disappeared.

"What a coincidence!"

The next moment, he gripped the door handle and pressed down slowly.

With a push, the big door opened a crack.

"The door isn't locked?" Qin Weiyang couldn't help but be stunned when she saw this.

The original thought of violently breaking the door vanished like smoke, replaced by thick confusion.

The museum, like the auditorium, was a forbidden area of the campus.

The former collected precious items from the past hundred years, indicating the development history of this middle school that had experienced many hardships.

Logically speaking, even if there were no security guards watching, it shouldn't be left unlocked.

Now Su Yang had easily opened the big door without any obstacles.

Su Yang took out a flashlight to probe the interior of the museum and said slowly: "It seems someone has taken a step ahead of us."

"Who could it be... Tang Hui?" Qin Weiyang asked.

"He can tunnel through the earth; the big door is just a decoration to him." Su Yang shook his head.

"But only Ruan Ziliang knew you were coming to the museum." Qin Weiyang frowned.

Su Yang stepped into the door cautiously, observing the movements around him.

Checking every corner, after confirming no one was there, he said: "No matter who it is, at least the 'peers' have also discovered the clues."

Going to the museum was not a spur-of-the-moment decision; Su Yang had had questions about this period of history since he got the diary.

The whole school had thousands of students, and there might be people "skipping school" in every time period.

So...

In unknown corners, perhaps a chaotic fight with equipment was not impossible.

After closing the door, the two split into two paths to check the exhibits in the museum.

The last time the head teacher brought students to tour the campus, they had come once, but at that time Su Yang hadn't placed his focus on this.

He was only pondering where the bloody smell in the auditorium came from.

Now revisiting the old place, he carefully observed the details on every exhibit, fearing he would miss even half a point.

After strolling through most of the circle, he discovered they were all trivial little gadgets.

They had absolutely no connection to the earthquake and fire from half a year ago.

"Could it be that they were all cleaned up?"

Just as he was puzzled, Qin Weiyang called out: "Su Yang!"

Turning his head to look, he saw her standing in front of a miniature building, raising her hand to beckon him over.

Su Yang walked closer and looked down.

This exquisite piece of art was a miniature version of the auditorium, with stone bricks and grass laid around it.

"It looks different from what we saw," Qin Weiyang said.

Su Yang held the flashlight to shine on it, examining the exterior of this art piece.

It was exactly the same as the auditorium in his impression, but the interior scenery was worlds apart.

The current interior of the auditorium was decorated magnificently, full of a luxurious atmosphere.

Yet the interior structure of this miniature auditorium was extremely simple, and the style was also vastly different.

"I remember Liu Bo saying that the auditorium was built with funds from foreigners two hundred years ago and was renovated once a hundred years ago," Qin Weiyang said.

"Accurately speaking, it was 105 years ago, which is when Luoshui Middle School was established," Su Yang added.

"From the structure, this building was not used for holding activities; it's more like a church..." Qin Weiyang frowned.

This point was not surprising; many foreigners funded the construction of churches to spread their doctrines.

Promoting "God" and recruiting believers.

Many ordinary people who hadn't received an education were easily won over, but there was also a portion of people who didn't believe in foreign gods.

"Perhaps it was cultural collision that prompted the establishment of Luoshui Middle School," Su Yang said.

"So before this school was established, the underground passage didn't exist?"

"It could be that the earthquake changed the geological structure, or it could be a passage that was dug long ago."

"Is it possible... that the treasure is wealth left behind by foreigners?"

Once these words were out, Su Yang's eyes froze.

Qin Weiyang continued: "Look, whether it's the strange objects or the earthquake, it seems to have an inextricable connection with the auditorium."

"The original body is a church, yet there are no records related to foreigners in the museum."

"There are also no historical records from before the school was established."

Su Yang pondered for a moment and said: "It's estimated that they only record things since the school was established."

"However, your guess is also a line of thought."

Speaking of this, he turned to look at the depths of the museum, his gaze flickering, "Should we take a gamble?"

"How to gamble?" Qin Weiyang asked with interest.

Su Yang looked around, "We searched through all the exhibits and didn't find any valuable clues."

"I thought that if I couldn't find them, then so be it, but your words just now reminded me."

"If the school authorities intentionally hid things from before the school was established, then why put the model from before the renovation here?"

"If it wasn't hidden, then why is there only this little bit of fragmented information?"

Qin Weiyang's heart stirred upon hearing this, "You mean there's 'more than meets the eye' in the museum?"

Su Yang smiled slightly, "Among the many exhibits, the one you discovered is the most abrupt."

"So I think... let's gamble that there is also a passage under the museum!"

What?!

Qin Weiyang's heart shook violently, and she asked: "Connected to under the auditorium?"

"It's possible, but I'm more inclined to think it hid something," Su Yang said slowly.

"What do you plan to do?"

Su Yang's palm touched the glass wrapping the exhibit, and he said: "Smash it!"

Saying this, he gripped the folding knife and slammed it into the glass with force.

"Clack!"

Following a crisp sound, the glass shattered in response.

Just at this moment, a red light shot out, illuminating the interior of the museum in a deep red.

Qin Weiyang's pupils shrank suddenly, and she subconsciously took a step back.

However, the alarm sound she imagined did not ring.

Without waiting for her to breathe a sigh of relief, Su Yang gripped the model and twisted it with force!
