After finishing his business, Lin Wu got up and left.

Bai Ning watched Lin Wu leave and said hesitantly: "Miss Bai..."

Bai Jing tilted her head to look at him and said softly, "I've told you before that when we're together in private, you don't have to call me that. In fact, you don't have to call me that in public either."

Bo Ning was slightly startled, looked away, and said a little embarrassedly: "Miss Bai is more fluent."

Bai Jing didn't force it, "What did you want to say just now?"

"It's Miss Lin. She just left the B&B and went to the village chief's house..."

Bai Ning felt that he couldn't hide the existence of Ren Ke from Bai Jing, but when he thought of Lin Wu's words, he hesitated again, unsure whether he should tell her.

Bai Jing misunderstood his meaning and said, "You just came back, so there are indeed many things you don't know. I'll tell you now, starting from the last time Lin Wu left for the back mountain..."

…

After Lin Wu left, he wanted to go visit Bo Liu.

When she reached the end of the corridor and was about to turn and go downstairs, she unexpectedly bumped into someone head-on.

Lin Wu immediately stopped and tried to move aside, but the other party was also caught off guard. In his hasty avoidance, he actually chose to side with Lin Wu, causing the two to collide after all.

“Bang—”

The bag the other person was holding fell to the ground, and the contents rolled all over the floor.

Lin Wu stood firm, looked up at the other person, and said sorry.

"I should have said sorry for not noticing anyone."

The other person was a young man with a decent appearance, rather ordinary, but very tall. He responded casually and went to pick up the things.

The man suddenly stopped when he saw her out of the corner of his eye, and looked up at Lin Wu.

Lin Wu was confused by his gaze, "What? Did I bump into you?"

“No, no, no…”

The man quickly lowered his head and squatted to pick up something.

Lin Wu wanted to help, but was coldly rejected by the other party.

The man quickly picked up everything, stood up and walked away in a hurry, with his head slightly lowered.

Lin Wu continued to go downstairs inexplicably.

After just two steps, Lin Wu stopped, took out his mobile phone and swiped to find a page.

Looking at the red dot above, Lin Wu looked back and raised the corners of his mouth as if smiling.

"I didn't expect that a better solution would come so soon..."

Lin Wu put away his phone and went downstairs.

There were more people in the small living room on the first floor, so Lin Wu went to the counter and asked for a bottle of mineral water to drink on the way.

"Ms. Lin!"

A male voice sounded.

Lin Wu paused for a moment, and a person appeared in front of him. Who else could it be but Luan Zhi?

Lin Wu frowned.

Luan Zhi was very happy to see her, his eyes sparkling, "Ms. Lin, it's really you! Your face... has changed again, so I know I didn't recognize the wrong person!"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Lin Wu walked around him and went out.

Luan Zhi caught up with her and said with a smile: "Then let's not talk about this, let's talk about other things. I successfully persuaded Professor Zhang to keep me in the archaeological team to participate in tomorrow's rescue plan. You were not in the B&B before, and I didn't know where you went. It's a pity that I couldn't see you again before the rescue. I didn't expect you to come back!"

"Don't say that. We're almost colleagues anyway." Luan Zhi said.

Lin Wu stopped and looked at him: "Colleague?"

Luan Zhi nodded heavily: "I heard from Professor Zhang and others that they want to invite you, Miss Bai and Mr. Bai to join the rescue team and act with us tomorrow. Haven't they told you yet? Don't worry, they will definitely tell you soon."

"You're telling me something you didn't say, aren't you afraid that they will blame you?" Lin Wu said.

Luan Zhi smiled, "I think they are definitely going to cooperate with you, so I'm telling you in advance, what's the problem? Besides, you didn't seem to have a very good impression of me before, so this news is my sincerity to please you. I hope we can get along happily in the future, okay?"

Lin Wu's thoughts moved, and he said calmly: "This sincerity alone is not enough."

"for example?"

Luan Zhi raised an eyebrow.

Lin Wu said, "I went out for a while, and when I came back I saw some strange people in the B&B. In my room... it seemed... In short, a lot of the things I had with me were gone. If you can find a way to help me find them, I will consider whether to cooperate with you."

"this……"

"Of course you can refuse. After all, you don't have to cooperate."

After Lin Wu finished speaking, he turned and left.

Luan Zhi did not chase after him this time. He looked at Lin Wu's back thoughtfully.

After a long moment, he laughed playfully.

"I lost something..."

"Okay, then let's search the entire B&B..."

…

After walking away, Lin Wu felt the gaze falling on him gradually disappear.

She shook her head, and after arriving at Bo Liu's place, she first asked the doctor about Bo Liu's recovery, and then stayed in Bo Liu's ward until it got dark.

Thinking that the time was about up, Lin Wu left and returned to the B&B.

When I got back, the B&B had become very lively. The small living room on the first floor was full of people, and the noise was loud and noisy.

Lin Wu walked lightly to the door.

There were also a lot of people blocking the door, all of them were tall men, who just covered Lin Wu's figure tightly. She didn't make any noise, so the people inside didn't notice her for a while.

Lin Wu folded his arms and listened slowly, and heard Qiu Mei's voice.

"Speak more politely and be more polite in your attitude!"

"We are not deliberately provoking you. In fact, we don't know yet. We just know that something is missing. Can you give us some time to find out clearly?!"

Wang Lin's angry voice echoed, along with the voices of several middle-aged men trying to mediate and persuade Xiang.

The other party they were facing didn't seem to appreciate it. A somewhat arrogant male voice said coldly, "It's your business if you lose things. Why did you break into our room? Do you believe me if you say it wasn't intentional? I'm telling you right here today. Either you give me a satisfactory explanation, or I'll kill you myself."

"How dare you! We don't have any big grudge against you, so why bother? Besides, touching someone is against the law!"

"Oh, I am the law! Besides, if you were not careful, why did you go into our room and not other rooms?"

"Because you are sneaking around. Among all the people in the B&B, you are the only ones who don't look like good people." It was Luan Zhi who suddenly spoke up.

Luan Zhi had a good reason: "I told you, I was looking for something. I asked the staff of the B&B, and you have secretly left the B&B several times in the past few days. I am not afraid to say that the things I am looking for are very important, and they are related to the back mountain. Do you dare to say that you have never been to the back mountain of Zhangjia Village without telling anyone?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the first floor suddenly became silent.

Luan Zhi continued, "So of course I have to look for you. No one else went to the back mountain secretly, so what use would they have to steal? After all, aren't you the only possible one? Your identities are still unknown, so who knows who you are."

"...Be careful what you say to me. Who we are and what we do is none of your business! " The arrogant male voice from before was filled with anger.
