C619 An Unlocked Cabinet

"If you were in the room, why didn't you open the door?" The man asked unhappily.

"I don't know! I caught a cold and took the cold medicine. I think I fell asleep!" Qu Yichen replied calmly.

The man did not expect it to be like this. However, a woman behind him walked to his side and whispered to him. "She did catch a cold these two days and is taking medicine!"

"That woman has gone missing. You, go out and look for her. Report to her immediately if you find her." The man ordered.

"That woman?" Qu Yichen asked curiously.

It was not the man who responded to Qu Yichen, but the woman who was standing behind the man. The woman who had spoken quietly to him just now looked at Qu Yichen and replied. "It's Miss Jian, the woman who goes to deliver meals every day."

"She went missing? How could it be?" Qu Yichen said in disbelief.

"Why do you care so much? Go and find him." The man said angrily.

It was unknown whether he was angry because he couldn't find the person or worried that the people above would blame him for not finding the person.

"Yes, I'll go and find him right away." Qu Yichen responded in a low voice, but when he left, he reached out and knocked on the door of the cabinet.

Jian Xi, who was in the cabinet, heard the knocking sound. Although she did not understand what it meant, she knew that it was Qu Yichen who knocked on the door.

The door closed, but Jian Xi did not run out of the cabinet immediately. After waiting for a long time and hearing no sound, Jian Xi reached out to open the cabinet door.

Jian Xi pushed it and the cabinet door was very firm and did not move. Jian Xi could not help but be stunned for a moment and then increased the strength in her hand. She pushed hard and the cabinet door was still not pushed open.

Could it be that Qu Yichen had locked the cabinet door? Jian Xi thought suspiciously and could not help but panic.

Furthermore, the cabinet was narrow to begin with. Even if one wanted to use all their strength, it would be very difficult. There would always be a portion of strength that could not be used.

It was still the knock before Qu Yichen left. Was he asking her to wait here for him to come back?

Jian Xi did not know, but she pushed the door back and forth several times, but did not push it open. Instead, it caused her to be tired to the point of gasping for breath. She stopped and leaned against the cabinet to rest.

She could not see anything in the cabinet. She did not have any Illumination articles on her body. Or perhaps... Jian Xi did not know how long she had been waiting for something that displayed the time. She only felt that her body and limbs were curled up so tightly that they were almost stiff.

In the narrow dark space, Jian Xi kept feeling uneasy and panic in her heart.

Jian Xi could not help but silently mutter in her heart. "Qu Yichen, come back quickly! I don't want to be placed under house arrest in this room. I still have to be locked up in this cabinet for a period of time."

If this continued, it was inevitable that her legs would not stiffen and she would not be able to move.

She wanted to stretch out her legs but was unable to move no matter what. In that kind of space that could only accommodate one person, Jian Xi struggled to move. Even if she could not even use both hands and legs, it would be good for her to turn around.

With this thought, Jian Xi struggled to turn over. Her entire back was only suppressing the cabinet door. Jian Xi suddenly felt that it was easier to use force like this. She used her back to push against the top but still did not open the cabinet door.

Jian Xi could only sigh helplessly.

Because it was still not comfortable, Jian Xi moved again. She did not know if her back had touched something, but Jian Xi suddenly fell out of the cabinet. When she fell to the ground, Jian Xi was stunned for a moment. She looked coldly in front of her and only sat up after a while. She looked at the cabinet that she had just laid down.

The handkerchief that Qu Yichen had placed on the bottom of the cabinet had already become very messy because Jian Xi was moving around in the cabinet. When she looked at the cabinet again, there was no lock on it. It was not that it was not locked, but that the door itself was not locked.

What the hell!

Since there was no lock, then why was she unable to open the cabinet with all her strength in the cabinet? Then, after she flipped over, she suddenly opened it again?

Jian Xi did not understand and did not understand, so she ignored it!

In fact, although this door was not locked, it was not so easy to open. Whether it was from the outside or from the inside, this door needed to be used in a timely manner. Only when it was used correctly could the door be opened. Otherwise, if it was not used correctly, it would require dozens of times more energy. Only then could the cabinet be opened.

However, Jian Xi did not know about this.1

At this moment, sitting on the ground blankly, Jian Xi also did not know what to do for a moment.

Although Qu Yichen did not say it explicitly, she knew that he probably wanted her to leave this place with him. It was just that she could not and could not do it.

It was rare that no one was looking at her now. Thinking of this strange place, Jian Xi wanted to investigate it. Only by confirming the surrounding environment could she save herself when something unexpected happened.

After making up her mind, Jian Xi first looked around the room she was in. This was a small room filled with things. There was a neat handkerchief on the table, and Jian Xi understood where Qu Yichen had gotten the handkerchief from.

And beside her, there was a chair. The entire room was closed. There was no window. It was impossible to see the scenery outside through the window.

Jian Xi got up and prepared to leave the room. She quietly opened a gap. Jian Xi did not hear the sound outside the door and boldly opened the door. She stuck her head out and came back to check. In about a minute, she didn't see anyone.

He guessed that those people had searched around here, but didn't find anything, so they all went to other places to look. Although she had only come out once in total, Jian Xi knew that this castle was actually very big.

Walking out of the room, Jian Xi recalled the direction Qu Yichen had led her to when they ran over here. Jian Xi did not hesitate to choose another path.

Because she was worried that she would be discovered, Jian Xi's heart was hanging in the air. She walked a few steps and turned her head to check if there was anyone behind her.

Fortunately, Jian Xi was kept under house arrest in the room and her feet were always closed. When Qu Yichen pulled her out, she was already in a hurry, so when Jian Xi walked barefooted, she lowered her voice to the minimum.

She could not hear the sound of her walking, but she could hear her little heart beating continuously. The sound was so loud that Jian Xi wished to scold it and lower its voice to disturb her listening to the surrounding sounds.

When she heard a little sound, Jian Xi immediately panicked and looked for a place to hide. This was the first time Jian Xi had encountered such a thing and she did not have any experience at all. Sometimes, before she could even tell what sound it was, Jian Xi would find a place to hide in a panic.

After waiting for a long time, she did not find any sound and was somewhat confused. She did not know if it was because she was too nervous and had hallucinations or something!

Then, it happened again. This time, Jian Xi was very sure that she did not hallucinate. After Jian Xi came out, she saw the cat jumping around.
