CHAPTER 482: 482: UNDERWATER SURFACE

The old mansion.

Xia Xi endured the headache, desperately running...

She began to experience hallucinations, only able to see water and nothing else...

She didn’t know how long it had been, kneeling on the ground, gasping for air, her hands completely soaked!

"Under the water..."

She uttered the words with whatever strength she had left, but it was enough for Gu Tong behind her to hear.

Gu Tong was following behind her!

Yet she showed no reaction to her words...

Because, at this moment, her eyes were focused on the swimming pool ahead!

Just now, when they passed through the old mansion, Gu Tong had inspected its layout.

She was able to accurately notice the dust clinging to it.

Simply by the thickness of the dust, Gu Tong could determine that the mansion had been uninhabited for a long time, with no signs of being cleaned.

Even the shortest period would have to be measured in years.

Yet, in such an old mansion...

There was actually such a clear swimming pool, unused for a year, but the water level remained this deep!

This was clearly impossible!

At this very second, Gu Tong could confirm that Xia Xi’s memory was truly in disarray.

Otherwise, she couldn’t possibly know the swimming pool of the old mansion so clearly!

Obviously, it’s evident.

These memories are all about a past life.

"What’s underneath?"

Gu Tong crouched down halfway, asking the already exhausted Xia Xi.

Xia Xi, panting heavily, weakly replied, "Left side... behind the third tile from the bottom... there’s something..."

Her speech came in broken fragments, obviously taking much effort.

But, her fingers were tugging at Gu Tong’s clothes, as if stopping something.

Gu Tong keenly sensed her action and frowned as she asked, "Should I go in or not?"

Xia Xi’s actions clearly intended to stop her.

Gu Tong couldn’t act rashly while her memory chain was still unclear.

"I don’t know..."

Xia Xi gasped desperately, saying, "There’s blood in the water... I can’t see clearly..."

To go in, or not!

It had already become a choice for Gu Tong.

Gu Tong frowned, but heard Xia Xi say again: "But I know... this thing is very important to Li Yan and Gong Chenli..."

The original choice turned into an obligatory question...

Gu Tong hesitated once more.

She looked around, trying to force herself to observe the underwater situation.

However, beneath the water was blurry, making it impossible to see clearly.

Especially the black tiles on the right side, stacked layer by layer, obviously intending to conceal something.

Gu Tong tore a piece of her clothing, tentatively soaking it with some water, then brought it up to smell.

There was no chemical smell, no corrosiveness, so it was temporarily safe.

"Wait for me."

Gu Tong removed the device, tossing it in front of Xia Xi.

She intended to go in the water, and carrying a laser was useless.

It felt more secure to leave it with Xia Xi.

Though this person’s emotions were very unstable now, she could still persist in fighting.

This Gu Tong knew!

Gu Tong stood up and, to facilitate entering the water, completely tore her dress.

After confirming everything, she moved to the vicinity of where Xia Xi indicated.

She looked around to ensure no problems.

’Bang―――’

Gu Tong had already entered the water.

But at the same time, the sound accompanied was...

"No..."

Xia Xi shouted frantically, clutching the laser tightly at the same time.

The once-clear pool water overlapped with the blood-red images from her memory...

She was terrified, afraid that something might happen to Gu Tong.
