Chapter 520: Hidden Worries Revealed



"It seems that you really don't know." Shen Qiqi shrugged, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone, "No wonder, how could a small fry like you know the secrets of the higher-ups?"

"You...don't be so proud!" The tall man was so angry that he wanted to rush forward with his fists waved.

Lu Qing was quick to stop him with a cold look and an imposing aura.

"Want to fight? Don't you even consider your own weight?" Lu Qing snorted coldly and easily pushed the tall man aside.

Seeing this, several people dared not act rashly. They all looked like eggplants hit by frost, with their heads drooping.

Shen Qiqi looked at their cowardly appearance and felt secretly happy.

She knew that these people were just paper tigers, and their true colors would be revealed immediately if they were slightly frightened.

"Okay, Brother Qing, let's go." Shen Qiqi took Lu Qing's arm and turned to leave.

"Wait!" the tall man suddenly stopped them, "I'll tell you... I'll tell you everything!"

Shen Qiqi curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a smug smile.

She knew that these people would not be able to hold on.

When the villagers saw this scene, they applauded and cheered.

They admired Shen Qiqi's wisdom and an atmosphere of excitement spread throughout the village.

Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi proudly, his eyes full of love and trust.

He hugged Shen Qiqi tightly and whispered in her ear: "Qiqi, you are so amazing."

Shen Qiqi snuggled in Lu Qing's arms, a happy smile on her face.

A warm atmosphere enveloped the entire village, and the villagers smiled with relief.

Suddenly, the tall man stammered, "Actually... we are from... the next village..."

The tall man trembled like a sieve, shaking non-stop: "Actually... we took some things from... the next village..."

"Took something?" Shen Qiqi raised an eyebrow, her tone lengthening dangerously. "What did you take? How did you take it? Where did you take it from? Who did you take it from? Tell me quickly!"

A series of questions bombarded the tall man like a machine gun. Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead, his eyes were erratic, and he stammered for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence.

"Hey, big brother, stop hiding it and tell the truth!" Shen Qiqi waved her hands impatiently, "Leniency for confession, severity for resistance. You should understand this principle, right?"

Seeing that he could no longer hide it, the tall man had no choice but to tell everything.

It turned out that they were instructed by Liu Ergou from the next village to sneak into the warehouse and steal some food and farm tools.

"Liu Ergou?" Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing looked at each other, and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

This Liu Ergou is a notorious ruffian from the next door village. He is idle and often does petty thefts.

Unexpectedly, this time they set their sights on the warehouse in their village.

"Humph, it seems that Liu Ergou is tired of living!" Lu Qing snorted coldly.

The news spread throughout the village like a gust of wind.

The villagers were filled with righteous indignation and expressed their desire to settle the score with Liu Ergou.

"That's too much! How dare you steal our things!"

"This Liu Ergou really deserves to be punished!"

"Let's go to the next village and ask Liu Ergou for an explanation!"

The villagers were excited and ready to fight, wishing they could rush to the next village and beat Liu Ergou up.

Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing calmed the excited villagers and decided to secretly investigate the situation before making any plans.

In the dead of night, Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing quietly left the village and headed towards the next village.

In the next village, there was silence, with only the barking of dogs occasionally breaking the tranquility of the night.

Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing were lurking at the entrance of the village, observing their surroundings vigilantly.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and the leaves rustled, as if whispering.

Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing felt a chill in their hearts, and felt that the air around them became solemn.

"Qiqi, be careful, I feel something is wrong." Lu Qing said in a low voice, with a hint of worry in his tone.

Shen Qiqi nodded, tightened the dagger in her hand, and scanned everything around her with sharp eyes.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed out from the bushes next to him, holding a wooden stick in his hand, and smashed it hard on Lu Qing's back!

"Be careful!" Shen Qiqi yelled, and pushed Lu Qing away violently...

"Heh, you reacted pretty quickly." A cold voice came from the darkness, "But do you think you can escape from my grasp like this?"
