16-year-old Wen Zhu suddenly gains the ability to see something called a "barrage," which tells her she's cannon fodder who's about to be abducted by human traffickers, have her org...
Chapter 78: Either he is a kidnapper or a scammer!
Wen Zhu expressed his sincerity before his master even opened his mouth.
Sure enough, as soon as the old man saw the aluminum lunch box wrapped in a cloth bag that Wen Zhu was holding, the complaint that was about to come out of his mouth was retracted.
"Let's go."
He walked with his hands behind his back and hummed a little tune.
When we got on the bus back to town, it was already afternoon. Wen Zhu didn't go back to school, but went straight home.
Her second brother was leaving soon, so she had to go back and give him a thorough explanation, telling him that it was never too careful.
Wen Zhu was also worried, extremely worried. The comments only said that his second brother would die in a mission, but when exactly? Which mission? Why would he lose his life?
The commentator was really tight-lipped and didn't say anything crucial.
It's like telling you the answer but not writing the process, which makes you feel confused.
But it's always better to be more prepared.
She bought some good medicinal herbs, ground them into powder and took them home. When her master wasn't paying attention, she left the money behind and ran away.
In this small place, the master probably didn't make much money in a day, and she was embarrassed to take it every day in the name of her apprentice. It was estimated that it would not be long before the master was forced to close down due to losses.
On the way, she met a ragged old man who fell to the ground when he saw her.
With her previous experience of being kidnapped, she reflexively ran even faster! Who would just throw a little girl to the ground for no reason? Either a kidnapper or a scammer! They're just bullying people like they have no brains.
In addition, she had good eyesight and medical skills, so she could tell at a glance that the man had a rosy complexion and was full of energy. He didn't look like he was feeling unwell or fainted from hunger at all.
All her training during this period wasn't in vain; now she was running incredibly fast! She could easily place in a 100-meter dash!
The old man finally met a girl who was going out alone, and was about to use his old trick again. But before he fell, the girl ran away as if she had seen a ghost.
He didn't even look here.
He gritted his teeth in hatred. How could he meet someone who was extremely stupid and someone who was extremely smart in one day?
"Hey, girl, girl?"
According to Wen Zhu's intuition, there was a high probability that he was a liar. Anyway, she ran all the way and tried to save her life first!
Even if she wasn't a scammer, she still had nearly two hundred huge cash in her pocket, which was not safe.
"Hey, girl, wait, I'm not a bad person."
Wen Zhu heard the sound getting closer, and was so scared that his legs moved faster than his brain. He accelerated again, turned a corner, and left the person far behind.
Finally ran to the gate of the yard.
However, the door of her house was locked and the door next door was ajar. Without thinking, she rushed in and bolted the door in one go.
Then he leaned his back against the door and gasped for breath.
When he raised his eyes, his gaze met Qian Jingsheng who was sitting in the yard.
She explained, "Sorry to bother you. I just met a man on the road who looked like a human trafficker. He seemed to be chasing me, so I saw your door was open, so I hid in here."
Qian Jingsheng immediately stood up and walked towards the door. "Just stay here and leave the rest to me."
"Lock the door from the inside. Don't open it until we come back. Your second brother should be back soon."
He called Xiao Huang, the waiter, to go out and check. Not seeing her outside, he followed the path Wen Zhu had taken back to look for her.
Wen Zhu's heart was pounding with fear inside the door, and it took a while for her to calm down. She squatted on the ground at the gate of the compound without caring about her image, leaning against the gate to listen for any movement.
I thought that when my second brother comes back, I must ask him to go to the police station with me to report the matter to Officer Wang. Maybe we can catch the human traffickers and get rid of this harm to the people!
After a while, she heard footsteps outside. She didn't say anything, but breathed softly and listened carefully.
The man walked breathlessly, and there was a squeaking sound.
Wen Zhu reflexively picked up a brick from the ground and held it tightly in his hand.
She could only stick to the door panel and listen to the sound getting closer and closer to the door, but she didn't dare to look through the gap, for fear of meeting the eyes of the human traffickers.
Now that she is alone, it is really dangerous.
The man walked back and forth at the door. From the sounds, he seemed to be pushing on her door, which made a creaking sound and the metallic sound of the lock colliding. Perhaps he saw that the door was locked from the outside and could not be pushed open, so he turned to the door of the next yard.
Wen Zhu could feel that the person outside the door had not left and was only one door away from him.
She suddenly realized that the gate was locked from the inside. Would that person notice that someone was inside?
Thinking of this, he gripped the brick in his hand tighter and silently took out the silver needle with his other hand.
If he dared to break the door, I would hit him with a brick and then stab him with a needle.
The door shook when it was pushed, but she still didn't make a sound.
"Is anyone there? I want some water."
It was the old man's voice. It seemed that he was still chasing after them because he was unwilling to give up. I don't know if he was hiding on purpose, or if it was just a coincidence that he missed Qian Jingsheng and the other man who were out looking for someone.
Seeing no one answering, the man pushed the door hard, but it wouldn't budge, and the footsteps went to the side.
Just when Wen Zhu thought that everyone had left, she heard the sound of a stone falling from the corner of the wall on the other side.
Could it be that he still wants to climb over the wall to get in? !
This is not impossible!
Before, Qian Xusen always talked to her from the top of the wall. As long as he was taller and put a stone under his feet, he could see what was going on inside, or even turn over.
Wen Zhu's heart was filled with alarm!
Just as she was considering which of the three options was safer: quietly moving into the house, climbing over the wall to her own yard, or rushing out to buy time, she heard other people's voices outside.
"What's he doing sneaking around outside someone's yard? Quick, catch him, he must be a thief!"
Then there was the sound of the stone being kicked down, the man at first fleeing, and the sound of the man behind him shouting "Stop, don't run" gradually fading away.
Wen Zhu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, she still did not dare to let her guard down. After all, the methods used by human traffickers are endless.
Before he could relax, he became alert again.
Something is wrong! This is very wrong!
Since everyone saw the "thief", why did only one person chase him? This doesn't make sense!
Are they in the same group? They're putting on this act just to get her to open the door!
What kind of cannon fodder is this? Anyone I meet turns out to be a bad guy! This seemingly kind passerby might even be an accomplice! Now there are three of them!
She could still fight hard with one person, but with three people, she had some self-awareness and knew she was no match for them at all!
Wen Zhu did not dare to relax. He was fully alert and continued to maintain his original posture without moving.
According to the current situation, it is best to stay hidden for now! It is safer to wait for family or Qian Jingsheng and others to come back before coming out.
It doesn't matter if her physique attracts bad luck, as long as she is afraid of death, she can stay alive forever!
Wen Zhu was still waiting quietly. The one who had gone after him seemed to have returned.
"How is it?" the older man asked in a hushed voice.
"No movement, maybe we've found the wrong place."
"Then let's go."
As they talked, the footsteps slowly faded away.
