Chapter 2366
Duan Xu knew about Wenshu's existence, but Duan Qianyang was a relative he had no choice but to acknowledge. To him, Wenshu was even more of a stranger.
His eyes only glanced over her lightly, and then fell on Ruan Jiaojiao.
"Sister, why didn't you answer the phone? We thought something happened to you." Yang Hong walked over with uneven breathing, breathing heavily with his mouth open. His forehead was covered with a layer of sweat in the cold weather.
Just now, they called them when they left the vegetable market, but none of them got through. He thought it was nothing, but the expression of Duan Xu beside him at that time made him think that the three of them were in trouble. He almost lost half his life chasing after him all the way.
"Did you make a phone call?" Yang Tiao looked at the two people approaching and asked suspiciously. She reached into her pocket and her face suddenly changed: "Oh my god, where's my phone!"
Ruan Jiaojiao and Yu Rou heard the voice and hurriedly reached into their pockets. When they did so, their expressions changed.
"Mine is gone too." Yu Rou.
"Me too." Ruan Jiaojiao nodded.
The two said in unison.
Duan Xu didn't care about the phone. He just pulled Ruan Jiaojiao to his side and checked left and right. After making sure that she was not injured, his frown relaxed.
"There are indeed many pickpockets here. They probably took advantage of you three girls because they saw that you were not on guard. I have a police friend here. Do you want me to accompany you to report the crime? Maybe we can find the pickpocket." Gao Ji was a little unhappy because he was ignored before. Now that he saw that the three girls had lost their phones, he immediately asked.
When he said this, his eyes vaguely swept across Ruan Jiaojiao's face, with a bit of unconscious showing off.
Ruan Jiaojiao ignored him and only looked at Duan Xu.
Duan Xu's eyes swept through the crowd. Because it was the Lantern Festival, there were many people out shopping, especially in front of some shops, which were crowded with people. In this situation, it was not easy to find the pickpocket.
But Duan Xu's senses were stronger than those of ordinary people, and Ruan Jiaojiao's phone was full of her scent. To him, that scent could not be covered up by other people.
He only scanned the crowd, and in less than half a minute, he had locked onto his target.
He walked towards the man with a cold face.
The pickpocket was standing in front of a shop selling egg cakes. The shop was doing very good business, so there were many people in front. He locked his eyes on an old lady with a child, watching the old lady take out the cloth bag with money, take out one to pay, and put the others back in the bag. He immediately found the right time, squeezed in sideways, raised one hand, and said to the boss: "Give me a bag."
The other hand reached into the old lady's pocket and soon touched the cloth bag with money.
He thought everything was foolproof, and even had a smug smile on his face because he was about to succeed, but the smile didn't last for a few seconds, and turned into a wail: "Ahhhhhhhh..."
His sudden loud howl scared the people around him, and they immediately dodged to the sides.
At first, everyone didn't understand why a grown man was howling, but when everyone looked over along his wrist, they saw a very good-looking young man, who was holding the vegetables in one hand and holding the howling man with the other.
