After a short while, in the reach of the flashlight's beam, a dark shadow sat against the wall.
"Is there really someone here?"
The distance was too great for Chu Mingcheng to see clearly at once, and as his heart skipped a beat, he immediately drew the dive knife he carried with him.
But in the next moment, he revealed a puzzled expression.
The figure was clearly illuminated by the flashlight yet remained motionless, could it be a "dead person"?
Taking a few steps closer, when he saw the bones protruding from the clothes, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Mingcheng had by now grown accustomed to skeletons.
Thus, he felt little fear and continued to walk slowly toward it.
Upon closer inspection, he found that the figure sitting against the wall was a skeleton dressed in an earth-yellow officer's uniform.
The state of the skeleton made it clear that it had been dead for a very long time, at least several decades.
