Chapter 480 Don’t Leave Me Alone…

Lu Yuanbao looked serious and solemn at this moment, his little face tense.

Because he saw the figure of a man four or five times.

At first, the man just walked casually through the intersection of the alley, and Lu Yuanbao didn't pay much attention to him.

But after a short while, the figure appeared again and walked towards him again.

Once, twice, three times, four times...

Even if a normal person couldn't find the way, he would turn around and look around, instead of walking hurriedly like him, and carefully taking a peek into the alley when passing by.

Something is wrong!

This man is probably a bad guy!

The first thing Lu Yuanbao thought of was human traffickers. Human traffickers are the scariest. When they see a child alone, they will snatch the child away without any care. If a child falls into the hands of human traffickers, it will be difficult to escape.

"Tianci, let's stop playing and go back to the house."

Lu Yuanbao pulled Pei Tianci to his feet, and the two of them walked into the small warehouse, closing and locking the door at the same time to prevent outsiders from breaking in.

"Brother Yuanbao, why is the door closed? Is there a bad guy outside?"

Pei Tianci sensed something was wrong with Lu Yuanbao and asked worriedly.

"It's okay, they're not bad people. We just need to go somewhere else to play. We can't let Aunt Fang look after the store alone. Let's go over and talk to her."

"OK."

Lu Yuanbao made up an excuse, then took Pei Tianci's hand and walked towards the shop in front.

However, as he walked, he found something wrong.

There is no light...the room is dark...

The shop faces south, and as long as the door is open, sunlight will come in and the whole house will be bright. But now this light is gone and it is all dark.

Lu Yuanbao's heart also became heavy, and the uneasy fear in his heart was spreading rapidly.

Did something really happen?

When they went out, they found that the store was indeed closed.

"Hey - where's Aunt Fang? Why is Aunt Fang gone?" Pei Tianci looked around curiously.

Fang Xiuli disappeared and the door was closed.

Could it be that Fang Xiuli had to go out temporarily and closed the shop?

Impossible. Fang Xiuli would not close the door casually. Even if she really wanted to close the door, she would come and tell them and take them with her.

There must be another reason!

Lu Yuanbao immediately checked the store but still couldn't find Fang Xiuli. It seemed that Fang Xiuli was really not in the store.

"What's wrong...what's wrong with Brother Yuanbao...I...I...I'm a little scared..."

Pei Tianci was locked in a dim room, and Lu Yuanbao fell silent again. Everything around him made him feel nervous and scared.

He stretched out his hand to grab Lu Yuanbao.

Lu Yuanbao quickly took his hand, calmed him down, and comforted him, "Tianci, don't be afraid. Aunt Fang might have gone out for something. Let's open the door and go find Aunt Xu at the barber shop across the street."

The barber shop owner Xu Zhiyi has a good relationship with Chu Yue and sometimes gives food to Lu Yuanbao. She is a trustworthy person.

"Well, Brother Yuanbao, let's go."

Pei Tianci was afraid, so he huddled beside Lu Yuanbao and answered in a low voice.

Lu Yuanbao held Pei Tianci's hand with one hand and pushed the door of the shop with the other.

Unexpectedly - I can’t push it open.

No matter how hard he pushed, he couldn't move it even a little bit.

The door seemed to be locked from the outside and could not be opened at all.

Pei Tianci asked in a low voice, "Brother Yuanbao, what's wrong? Can't we get out?"

"Tianci, don't be afraid, I will definitely take you out. We will definitely get out." Lu Yuanbao faced danger with extraordinary courage and calmness.

Since you can't push it open from the front, then go to the back.

He had locked the door at the back from the inside, so it must be possible to push it open.

"Tianci, follow me closely, let's go to the back door."

The two little children turned back inside the store and headed towards the back door again, but the difficulties still existed.

This time, it wasn't that the door couldn't be opened, but a thick black smoke floated in from under the door.

“Cough cough… cough cough…”

As soon as Pei Tianci smelled the smoke, he started coughing.

Lu Yuanbao didn't feel well either, but he still tried to move forward through the smoke, trying to push open the door that had just been closed.

The little hand that was stretched out touched the door and was instantly scalded and had several blisters.

So hot!

So hot!

The door was scorching hot and could not be opened at all. What came out from under the gap was not only smoke, but also scarlet flames.

On Fire!

It's a big fire!

"hiss--"

Lu Yuanbao's burned palms trembled, and the flames burned towards his legs.

Pei Tianci was shocked when he saw it, and quickly pulled him back, "Brother Yuanbao! It's on fire! It's on fire! Come here quickly!"

Lu Yuanbao reacted quickly. In the current situation, it was impossible for them to escape from the back, so they could only go to the front.

"Tianci, let's go ahead!"

His palms were burned and blisters appeared on them, but he didn't care about the pain. He held Pei Tianci tightly and turned around to walk in another direction.

However.

When they got to the front, they saw not only a closed door, but also the same thick smoke and flames.

They were surrounded from front and back, trapped in the small house and unable to get out.

“It’s on fire… What should I do… Brother Yuanbao… It’s on fire… cough cough… cough cough…”

Pei Tianci was completely panicked. As a child who grew up in luxury, he had never seen such a scene before.

Thick smoke choked the nose, flames burned, the air in the house was filled with smoke and dust, and the surroundings were pitch black, as terrifying as hell.

The great fear deeply consumed the little child.

Pei Tianci held Lu Yuanbao's hand tightly, and his body couldn't help shaking.

Lu Yuanbao had experienced many dangers, big and small. He remembered what Chu Yue had taught him. After looking around, he quickly pulled Pei Tianci to a corner that looked safe.

"Tianci, hide here and don't move!"

Pei Tianci didn't dare to let go of Lu Yuanbao's hand at all. He looked at him with horror. In the black smoke, he not only coughed violently, but also tears flowed from his eyes.

It is the fear deep in the heart and also a physiological reaction.

"Don't go...don't go...don't leave me alone..."

"Tianci, don't be afraid, I won't leave you alone!" Lu Yuanbao pushed Pei Tianci hard before he broke free. He pressed Pei Tianci's shoulder and said, "Tianci, squat down a little, don't stand up."

When there is a fire, the black smoke goes up, but the air below is still breathable.

Pei Tianci was trembling, hugging his knees with his hands, curled up into a small ball.

"Brother Yuanbao... cough cough... Brother Yuanbao... Brother Yuanbao..."
