Chapter 325: Delayed update, all-out suppression of bandits

Tu Huan chose [No].

At the critical juncture, it is impossible to predict the problems that may arise during the upgrade, in order to avoid the situation where she is unable to rescue in time during the joint anti-bandit campaign by Xie Yuchuan and Xiong Jiushan.

After consulting with the system, she postponed the update time.

With the wallet in her current system, the balance in her bank card, and the lv.2 function bar, she studied it and felt that it could basically completely cover the main goal of "protecting Xie Yuchuan" when suppressing bandits.

Since all the data meet the standards, the system naturally wants to upgrade. It is logic-oriented and does not particularly understand Tu Huan's way of thinking, but after several interactions, its simulation and deduction program tells it.

When the host Tu Huan has made up her mind, don't go against her, otherwise you will be the one who suffers.

One person, one rule, and consensus is reached.

The upgrade time is delayed to seven days later.

In order to reduce the probability of accidents, after looking at her "remote gifts", Tu Huan happily put most of them into the system backpack, leaving only the guqin and some jewelry that she wanted to wear outside.

I carefully carried the guqin upstairs, cleared a table against the wall in the study, and gently placed it on it. I took a few steps back and thought it looked good no matter how I looked at it.

She opened her folding fan and gently swept it over the other jewelry, putting them all into the fan.

Finished a busy day.

I noticed that it was getting dark outside the window.

She turned around, picked up the phone, dialed it, and ordered a large truck to go to the warehouse to pick up a batch of goods.

The things in the warehouse cannot disappear without being taken. She needs to get a car and drive around there twice to leave some traces and cover up her tracks. This will make it much easier for her to do it later.

In deep winter, it always gets dark quickly.

In two days, it will be the Little New Year.

Nowadays, you can often see a few scattered fireworks outside the villa. A series of beautiful fireworks explode in the sky, which makes people happy.

She was suddenly moved, put on her thick clothes, turned around and went downstairs to the yard.

The light in the room behind her was gentle. Tu Huan, with her hands in her pockets and wearing pink and white earmuffs, stood in the middle of the yard, looking up and watching others set off fireworks.

After a while, the neighbor across the street, a couple, came out with their two children, one big and one small.

Across the road and the iron gates of the two houses, the two families looked at each other and greeted each other with a smile.

"You came out because you heard the noise, right?" the wife opposite said with a smile.

Tu Huan nodded. "I just heard it and watched for a while. I found someone's house and it looked pretty good, so I came out to take a look. You guys should wear more clothes. It's quite cold outside."

"Yeah, the two kids insisted on coming out to see it." He exhaled, and suddenly a cloud of white mist rose up. He couldn't help but laugh, "It's really quite cold."

"Um."

Tu Huan responded and began to miss her magical clothes that kept her warm and protected from the cold.

If I can’t get one in the future, I must spend a lot of money to buy another set!

Whoever wears it will know.

Two neighbors watched others setting off firecrackers together across the courtyard wall, and the two children jumped around happily.

Tu Huan looked at them from time to time, and her face couldn't help but become happy.

The neighbor's youngest son is not very old. She thinks he is about the same age as Xie Jiarui, the youngest son of the Xie family.

If Xie Jiarui saw such beautiful fireworks in the sky, he would be as happy as him, right?

After looking for a while, she unconsciously opened the system backpack and found a fireworks set that she had drawn in the system before.

Hiss——

Bang!

A new round of tricks takes off.

She looked up and thought to herself, when Xie Yuchuan and the others are done with their work and are no longer in danger, she will find a chance to let them relax as well.

Her eyes were looking at the "beautiful scenery" in the sky, but her mind was flying away.

"Miss Tu?"

A deep male voice called out to her.

She didn't hear it at first, until the second sound came, then she lowered her head to look for the source of the sound.

Unexpectedly, it was the man of the neighbor house across the street.

"Were you the one who called me just now?" Tu Huan looked at the other person in surprise.

In her impression, the family across the street has always been low-key, with a harmonious relationship between the couple. The hostess is friendly and talkative, but the host is taciturn. She has rarely interacted with him in the past few years since she moved back.

She and the hostess only exchanged glances and nods when they occasionally met.

Tonight, I suddenly called her, so I can't blame her for feeling weird.

It was obvious that the man's action was not sudden and rash. Tu Huan glanced sharply at the man's wife beside him and saw that she turned her head to look at her husband without much surprise on her face.

Tu Huan thought to herself, it seems that the two of them have intentions.

She said politely, "Hello, Mr. Jiang."

The man opposite was wearing a long, warm winter coat. Upon seeing her response, he pulled his hand out of his pocket, adjusted his frameless glasses, and then spoke softly, "Miss Tu, have you encountered any problems recently?"

"?"

When Tu Huan heard this, she was stunned for a moment!

What's the meaning?

The man saw her surprised expression and his eyes relaxed. His wife beside him whispered, "Then tell her."

The couple's behavior was strange, and Tu Huan thought about it.

"If you have anything to say, Mr. Jiang, you can just tell me. It's fine."

Hearing her say this, the man nodded slightly and said, "I see you've been out lately and haven't been home often. It's almost the end of the year, and there have been a lot of strangers coming and going in the neighborhood lately. My wife said she saw several strangers around here recently."

Tu Huan's eyes became more serious, and she couldn't help but take a few steps forward.

"stranger?"

"Yes, and it seems some of them often hang around your house. They've been less frequent in recent days, but they used to appear quite often." The man made his words clear. After a moment's silence, he asked bluntly, "Ms. Tu, have you been in contact with anyone troublesome lately?"

He paused for a moment and then continued, "Or, have you offended some powerful figure?"

At this point, Tu Huan's eyes became alert.

He remained silent for a moment, waiting for the other party to say next.

Obviously, her vigilance and preparedness were also clearly felt by the couple opposite.

The hostess patted her husband's arm in frustration and said, "What's wrong with you? I told you to talk to Miss Tu properly, but you brought out your work-related tricks again."

"Sorry, I'm used to it."

"Okay, stop talking. I'll explain to Miss Tu."

Tu Huan silently watched the couple opposite her playing charades, and was confused by them for a moment.

However, she did understand one thing.

Mrs. Jiang across the street also understood what the man said to her.

Mrs. Jiang also walked forward a few steps. It was dark at night and the surroundings were very quiet. Even though they were some distance apart, it did not prevent the two from talking.

Mrs. Jiang explained on her husband's behalf, "Miss Tu, I'm sorry, my husband is a lawyer, and that's how he speaks, as if he wants to judge someone. He means no harm, so please don't mind!"

Tu Huan never expresses her opinion easily without fully understanding the situation.

She nodded, "Yeah."

"Here's what happened. You know, I don't work. I usually pick up the kids or go out to play, and sometimes I come home early. Just now, one time when I came home, I saw a black car circling our area. I didn't pay attention at the time, but then I saw two men staring at your house. Their behavior seemed very strange, so I told my husband about it, and he asked me to observe it a little more."

Tu Huan listened carefully.

After Mrs. Jiang finished speaking, she felt a little confused: "But then he didn't show up anymore."

Tu Huan: "Outside my house?"

Mrs. Jiang nodded heavily: "Yes! But I think I saw it again today!"

"when?"

"When you're not home at noon."
