Chapter 161 Give Up



Isn't it a favor?

Compared with her, Li Li's face, which was originally quite attractive, became a big plate face, almost falling out of the photo.

Li Liding didn't edit it at all and posted it bluntly: "Are you convinced?!"

In the photo, the young lady's eyes narrowed into crescents, so sweet as if she had secretly poured honey into people's hearts.

"If the wall doesn't obey you, then you will obey me"

The keyboard warriors who were jumping up and down in the main building just now suddenly stopped.

Someone else quietly raised the question, "Did the blogger get the owner's consent to post this photo?"

Li Li was stunned and silently deleted the high-definition picture again.

Jiang Xi naturally had no idea that the girl she had so eagerly sought out for a photo had actually done something like this online, sparking a small but lively discussion. In the koala's pocket in front of her, the Fruit 6 was vibrating happily.

As an unwritten rule, most service industries do not allow employees to use communication tools during work hours.

But this is Jiang's mother's phone call...

"Take it." Lu Yuan, the coffee shop boy who was greeting her, said blushingly, "The manager is a good person, he won't mind these things."

Jiang Xi then covered her skirt pocket and went to the corridor to answer the phone. It was indeed Jiang's mother, asking her when she would be back.

"Mom, I'm afraid I'll be back a little late today, you and Dad should eat first."

The coffee shop has two shifts: morning and evening shifts and a regular day shift. At Jiang Xi's insistence, Cheng Cheng only assigned her to the regular day shift, but it would be at least 5:30 when she got off work.

"It's okay. Do you want Dad to pick you up?"

Jiang Xi refused outright. Not long after she returned to her post at the door, the glass door was opened from the outside. A tall figure walked in slowly with his hands in his pockets. She raised the corners of her mouth and bowed:

"Welcome!"

The sound seemed to attract the visitor's attention. The man lowered his eyes and only saw the top of the dark chestnut hair.

"Han Chen, here!"

Especially when sharing a woman, comparisons naturally arise. A man's masculinity is all about dignity and dignity, and it cannot be taken lightly. When Zhong Huier was called over, all she needed to do was to stir up trouble, acting like a cat today and a dog tomorrow, and she could cause these two people who were at odds with each other to start a quarrel.

This turned into a full-scale fight.

Besides, anyone who could be a kidnapper would probably have a bad conscience, and close friendships were a joke. Unequal distribution of spoils was common. Jiang Xi had noticed that the leader, Cheng Ge, was overbearing and often bossed his subordinates around. Meanwhile, the burly Lu Ge was said to have joined the business at the same time as Cheng Ge.

Brother Cheng gets the most, but he has no personal charm, so his subordinates must have been complaining about him for a long time.

Zhong Huier simply acted as a fuel to quickly intensify the potential conflict.

Brother Lu was teased and his mind became active, and his words and actions revealed his disobedience. Brother Cheng had a bad temper and was easily ignited, so it was natural for the two of them to clash.

Dagui and his fellow villager, Ah Xi, each on one side, tried to tear the two men apart, but they were too weak and ended up getting tangled up in the fight, dragging themselves into the fray. Liu Meijuan ran out in slippers, yelling nervously.

Jiang Xi rushed out holding her stomach and ran straight to the toilet. As expected, no one noticed her - or rather, even if they noticed, they didn't care.

The main room was directly connected to the only exit, and all the windows in the room were sealed from the inside. Even a mouse couldn't escape on a normal day. With five adults blocking this only exit, where could such a grown person escape?

Jiang Xi didn't want to run away either.

The toilet is located at the corner of the stairs. The stairs and the main room form a triangle, and the toilet is located in the shadow of this triangle, which happens to be in the blind spot of everyone's sight.

Jiang Xi calculated the time in his mind and ran up the stairs.

Holding her shoes, she slid up barefoot, like a cat, without making any sound.

Jiang Xi reserved three minutes for herself, forty seconds to go up and down the stairs, and the remaining two minutes and twenty seconds to find what she wanted - if the internal strife ended early, Zhong Huier would also find a way to help her buy time.

As early as when he occasionally "connected" and "chatted" with Dagui, Jiang Xi had extracted the information he wanted.

There are four men and one woman in the kidnapper's den. Dagui and his fellow villagers Asi and Lu Ge all live on the first floor, Cheng Ge and the female beggar live on the second floor, and Cheng Ge's room is the first room on the left when you go up the second floor.

Thirty seconds passed.

Jiang Xi rushed into the first house on the left within the expected time. It was a rural earthen building without even a layer of white putty, and large areas of dilapidated red bricks were exposed on the wall.

There was a simple spring bed against the wall, with the mat curled up at the edges. There was a half-drunk cup of water on the bedside table, and a black waist bag with its zipper casually open, revealing a dozen big red solidarity bags.

Jiang Xi glanced past it indifferently: That was not what she was looking for.

Forty seconds.

There was an old-fashioned chest of drawers near the door. Jiang Xi reached out and pulled it open. Inside were five or six thin short-sleeved shirts and a leather jacket, both formal and casual. Jiang Xi glanced at it and his eyes fell on the drawer of the chest of drawers near the ground.

The drawer was locked and Jiang Xi couldn't open it.
