Chapter 93 Crisis
You really can't work under a bridge...
But you can play!
Lizi and Jiaer didn't care about that. They opened the car door and jumped out.
The big one held the small one, like an arrow released from a bow, afraid that Ning Che would catch them.
After Ning Che and Green Hair finished talking, they both ran to the river to wade in the water. The other six dwarfs stood guard on either side, so nothing would happen.
He shook his head helplessly and could only get off the car.
The sky is clear, the grass is lush, and the river is gurgling. It is indeed a wonderful place.
Whatever! Just think of it as an outing with the kids!
He told the driver to take down the plastic sheet in the car and spread it on the ground, and asked Huangmao to go buy some snacks and mineral water nearby.
Ning Che stood on the shore and took a deep breath.
The grass and trees are fragrant and the mood is good.
It would be great if Fu Chengyun were here.
He wouldn't have to worry so much.
Besides, they have been together for so long, and apart from work and trivial matters, they have never had a proper date!
It was a waste of time following him!
Didn’t he say he would take me on a trip abroad?
I have to persuade him to go there once I have paid off the debt!
He was lost in thought and unknowingly walked under the bridge.
It was dark and damp under the bridge, and there were not many people around.
As he walked forward, every bridge arch was relatively clean, with only dust and water stains that had not yet dried in the shade.
As we went deeper, we began to hear soft conversations, as if it was a young child talking.
"I understand," she said.
When we reached the last bridge arch, the scenery was very different from the previous ones.
There are wooden beds, a water dispenser and a small folding table in the bridge arch.
There wasn't much stuff, but it was tidied up neatly.
There sat a middle-aged man and a little girl.
The girl looked about the same age as Jia'er, but her hair was even shorter, less than two centimeters long and stuck to her scalp. If it weren't for her delicate features, Ning Che would have hardly recognized her as a girl.
The red shirt he was wearing was whitish at the edges, but still clean.
He wasn't afraid of people, and just stared at them with big eyes. "Hello, brother."
"Hello."
He has always been more easygoing with children, and greeted the little girl with a smile.
"Why are you here?"
"My father brought me out to enjoy the cool air!" the little girl replied, glancing quickly at the middle-aged man as she spoke.
Jiaer ran over from a distance, sweating profusely from playing. She held a bunch of wild flowers in her dirty little hands and presented them to Ning Che like a treasure.
"Uncle, this is for you."
"Thank you, Jia'er." Ning Che touched his head. As soon as he took it, Jia'er was attracted by the little girl.
He just stared at people stupidly and didn't know how to speak.
The little girl was quite generous, "Little brother, do you want to play with us?"
The little hand took Jiaer's hand on its own initiative.
One white, one yellow, one fat, one thin.
He was skinny and had thin skin tightly wrapped around his tender finger bones.
She stretched out her hand, and Ning Che could see clearly that the small part of her wrist that was exposed was also almost withered.
The little girl smiled first and glanced at the middle-aged man again.
In a very short time, her clear eyes flickered for a moment. Then she smiled again and took Jia'er to the river.
Ning Che winked at Huangmao, signaling him to follow. He then glanced at Lizi by the river. The silly girl was busy plucking flowers, followed by Redmao.
He felt relieved that an adult was with him. He put his hands in his pockets and looked out at the river leisurely.
The middle-aged man came forward to talk to Ning Che, who listened incoherently.
They are a father and daughter who like to come here to enjoy the cool air. They decorated the bridge hole a little bit so that it would be convenient for them to sit here occasionally.
Ning Che remained silent. The middle-aged man was extremely enthusiastic. He took a glass of water from the dispenser and brought it to Ning Che.
Ning Che stared at the water for two seconds, then shifted his gaze to the man's face.
She had thin eyebrows, small eyes, a sunken mouth, and dark skin. When she spoke, her cheeks puffed out, a rosy tint to her dark complexion.
He looks in good spirits.
He is not fat, but not thin either, and certainly not as skinny as that girl.
"Are you her father?"
"Yes! This child looks like his mother, not like me." He touched his nose and felt a little embarrassed.
The man handed over the paper cup again and said, "It's hot, drink some water."
Ning Che didn't reach out to touch the paper cup, but just looked towards the river where Jiaer went.
!
There is no one by the river!
Even Huangmao is nowhere to be seen!
Sensing a bad premonition, Ning Che quickly grabbed the middle-aged man's neck and twisted his wrists behind his back with one hand.
“Where are the people?”
"What are you doing!" The middle-aged man was startled and struggled to shout. "The children are playing together, it's okay to go far away!"
"Tip it off!"
He immediately shouted: "Find the child!"
Rainbow Fur sensed something was wrong and sprang into action.
Ning Che raised his foot and kicked the middle-aged man's knee.
The middle-aged man knelt on the ground, screaming in pain. "Hit me, hit me!"
Ning Che picked up a stone and stuffed it into his mouth.
The man crushed his wrists with all his might, then stomped hard on his ankles. The sound of bones breaking was louder than the man's screams.
He looked around and shouted: "Little girl, if you don't come out, I will beat your father to death!" "If you come out, I will guarantee your safety!"
The only sounds echoing by the river were Ning Che's shouts and the Rainbow Group's yells.
There was no response.
The middle-aged man chuckled, "You can't find me even if you kill me. That's what I do. The person is long gone!"
Ning Che pulled out the stone. He wanted to kill him right away.
He grabbed the middle-aged man's head and slammed it against the ground, his voice cold and icy: "Since you don't want to say it, then there's no need to say it."
He pulled out a dagger from his calf and thrust it straight into the man's mouth, where his front teeth were missing.
The blade cut a bloody wound on the man's lip, and he became scared.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you."
His eyes flicked to the right imperceptibly, and Ning Che immediately looked over there.
Hidden behind the gray bridge pier was a small gray boat. The narrow and thin hull was hidden behind the broad stone pier, and it would be impossible to notice it without careful observation.
Ning Che shouted: "The boat behind the bridge pier!"
The small boat suddenly made a roar and quickly flew towards the center of the river.
Several people came back empty-handed and stood on the shore, anxious but helpless.
Rainbow Fur rushed into the river and swam hard, but he couldn't catch up with the electric motor and it was no use.
The tarpaulin on the boat moved in the wind, revealing a standing figure in the cabin.
The dagger flew out like lightning, unstoppable.
After a scream, the boat stopped in the middle of the river.
The driver and the Rainbow Group swam to the boat and shouted toward the shore, "Found it!"
The back, which was as tense as a fully drawn bow, relaxed slightly.
Ning Che kicked the middle-aged man, but the sound of his broken ribs was not enough to vent his anger.
He simply squatted in front of the man with his eyes curved.
The viciousness in his eyes made the middle-aged man tremble uncontrollably.
"Do you know what a human pig is?"
The corners of his mouth turned up, and his smile was bright.
The round fingertips moved towards the man's eyes.
"Don't fight! There's a drone recording!"
Lizzie trotted over, shouted, and squatted on the ground panting.
The drone hovering over Ning Che immediately flew away.
The fingertips also dropped down, and the tender, white, and delicate hands moved up the man's forearm and patted each of his bones twice.
The screams continued, and the man slowly collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball, twitching convulsively.
Ning Che clapped his hands in disgust and stood up.
Jiaer and Huangmao were carried to the shore.
Behind the crowd, the little girl followed closely. She walked to Ning Che with her head lowered, and knelt down in front of everyone with a plop.
