Chapter 290 Is the Emperor's Uncle in cahoots with the assassin?
"It's Aunt Huaer!" Little Dumpling spoke first.
She had just crawled out of the dog hole when she heard a slight noise nearby. Turning around, she saw a man holding a large wooden stick in his hand.
She observed for a while before realizing that the man was slowly approaching a woman sleeping on the ground with a wooden stick.
At this time, Xiaotuanzi and Huo Linger both recognized that the woman on the ground was Aunt Huaer.
My aunt didn't leave, and she was waiting outside the government office.
The two little guys' eyes turned red instantly. They didn't know if they could stop the man by rushing over.
Xiaotuanzi thought of an idea. She pulled Huo Linger to hide in the dark and picked up a stone and threw it out.
The man holding the wooden stick in the distance was actually the waiter of the noodle shop. He and the owner of the noodle shop observed Huaer for a whole day, and finally waited until the stupid woman fell asleep, and then he came over to take advantage of the situation and rob her.
Hearing the sound, he was obviously startled. He did not drop the raised stick, but looked around cautiously.
This place is behind the government office. Almost no one would pass by at this time, but if someone saw him, the waiter would be in trouble.
He looked around carefully and made sure that there was no one around before he dared to raise the stick again, ready to beat Huaer to death, and then snatched the bag she had been holding in her arms.
However, just as he was about to hit someone, he saw a small black shadow rushing towards him from a distance.
Before the waiter could react, he was knocked off balance by the black shadow, causing a huge commotion.
This black shadow was none other than Huo Linger, who was trying her best.
At the same time, Xiaotuanzi pounced on Huaer and shook her hard, "Auntie, wake up, wake up quickly, there are bad guys!"
The waiter took a closer look and saw that it was the two little guys from the day before. He was not afraid, but sneered and threatened, "Little bastards, get out of here if you don't want to die!"
"The one who is going to die is you!" Huo Linger stood in front of Xiaotuanzi and Huaer, looking at the waiter fiercely.
At this time, Huaer woke up and saw that it was two little guys. She quickly protected them behind her.
When she saw that it was the waiter holding the wooden stick, she immediately became furious. After throwing the bag to Xiaotuanzi, she immediately strode forward and grabbed the waiter by the collar.
"You beast, how dare you set your sights on me? Today I'll get to know some people and know who you shouldn't mess with." Huaer took advantage of the waiter's inability to react, snatched the stick, and hit the waiter on the shoulder.
"Ah!" Before the waiter could even scream in pain, he was hit on the forehead with a club and fainted.
"I told you not to try to hit on me! I'll show you some color!" Hua'er used her hands and feet, hitting me with a stick and kicking me at the same time.
Later, Xiaotuanzi and Huo Linger were stunned. They knew that Aunt Huaer was very fierce, but they didn't expect her to be so powerful.
Seeing that Hua'er might beat someone to death, Xiaotuanzi quickly went up to hold her back, "Auntie, stop it, let's go!"
Hua'er calmed down, threw away the stick, and quickly pulled the two little guys away.
She asked curiously, "Why did you come out? Did you find your relatives?"
"Aunt, that government office is in cahoots with the killer on the mountain," the little dumpling replied breathlessly, "and that man and Yingzi will come to kill us tonight."
"What?" Hua'er stopped in shock. "Little Dumpling, what did you just say?"
Li Suining took a deep breath and then said calmly, "The killer on the mountain is in cahoots with the people from the government office. They deliberately locked us up and waited for the men to come and kill us."
Hua'er shook her body. She was really stupid.
She couldn't remember how many times the man came back to the mountain and told her that the government office at the foot of the mountain was very dangerous and that soldiers would come out to arrest him from time to time. He also warned women countless times not to go down the mountain without permission, as they would surely die if caught by soldiers.
But now...it all turned out to be a huge lie.
"Aunt?" Little Tuanzi noticed that Hua'er looked unhappy and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Hua'er quickly cheered up, feeling more and more that it was right for her to leave. She pulled the two little guys to her side and said, "What are you going to do next? Where are you going? Auntie will take you there!"
Xiaotuanzi turned to look at Huo Linger. Huo Linger had been unusually silent all the way.
"Why would the people in the government office collude with the killer?" Huo Linger finally spoke, but her voice was filled with fear and confusion. It was obvious that she couldn't figure it all out.
She looked at Xiao Suining anxiously, "Little Tuanzi, did we make a mistake?"
"No," Li Suining said with certainty, "Trust me, I won't make any mistakes, and I won't lie to you."
Huo Ling'er really couldn't accept it, "Who wants to kill me?"
She suddenly thought of something and anxiously grabbed Hua'er's arm, "Aunt, please take us to the palace. I want to tell my uncle and let him find out..."
"No!" Before Huo Ling'er could finish, Xiaotuanzi immediately objected, "We can't go to the palace."
Huo Ling'er was a little angry at this time, "Why? Isn't the palace safe? Is the emperor's uncle also in cahoots with the killer?"
"I..." Little Dumpling stammered, "I don't know, but... I think it's better for us to find Sister Bai Kou and the others first."
"That's easy for you to say, but where should we look for it?" Huo Linger couldn't help but ask.
"I know a place. We will definitely be able to wait for them tomorrow." The little dumpling looked confident.
Just now, when she asked Xingxing, she also saw the scene of the palace. Although she was not sure, she felt that the palace was not safe at this time.
Fortunately, she also saw Bai Kou and the others appear in a place, a place they passed by during the day, and she knew where that place was.
"Is this true?" Huo Linger didn't quite believe it.
"We'll know tomorrow when we go." Hua'er always subconsciously believed Xiaotuanzi, and looked at her and asked, "Now... where are we going?"
Xiaotuanzi knew that her words had made Huo Linger emotional, but she couldn't tell her secret of watching the stars, so she could only force Huo Linger to believe her.
She tried to coax Huo Ling'er in a flattering way, "Princess sister, tell me, where should we go now? We'll listen to you."
"Hmph!" Huo Ling'er turned her head away. "You decide for yourself."
"Sister, good sister, you decide, I'll listen to you." Little Dumpling hugged Huo Ling'er and tried to coax her, "I'll listen to you, you say it, hurry up!"
Seeing that Huo Ling'er didn't say anything, she went to scratch Huo Ling'er's itchy spot.
Huo Linger couldn't stand it anymore and quickly begged for mercy with a smile, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you, let's find an inn to stay in first, and then wait for Bai Kou and the others tomorrow."
Li Suining immediately gave a thumbs up, "Good idea!"
Huaer smiled as she watched the two little guys playing, and shook her head with a doting look on her face.
