"It's so late, what are you two doing out here?"
Chen Shuang silently pulled out a slingshot from his waist and grabbed a handful of stones from his pocket, which made Tang Ran speechless.
"Did you two make an appointment? To smash someone's glass?"
"I didn't make an appointment with her. Just after dark, I saw her sneaking around the compound. I knew she was up to no good. When I asked her, she said she was going to smash all the windows in the Jiang family's house. I was afraid she would get caught, so I followed her."
Everyone knows that Quan Jiang is the culprit behind the Tang family's current situation.
Rong He didn't say anything. He also wanted to see if he could catch Quan Jiang alone and make his move. Of course, the possibility of this was very small. How could Quan Jiang be alone?
Bad guys also know that what they are doing is bad. They have offended so many people that they are afraid of death. If they don’t guard against it, they are stupid.
Tang Ran, Chen Shuang and Rong He each had a slingshot when they were six or seven years old.
It was after they got this damn tool that the three of them became the most hated characters in the compound. However, they were the most favored ones in the family. If they made trouble outside, their family would always clean up the mess. But when they came home, they would be scolded by banging the table to scare away mice, which made the three of them become more and more outrageous.
None of the three spoke for the next minute.
"What are your plans next? How will your uncle and aunt arrange for you?"
Rong He was the first to break the silence and asked the question that concerned him most. Unlike his usual nonchalant attitude, he looked very serious.
"My parents want me to go abroad, but I don't want to. I want to wait and see where my parents and my brother are sent, and then make plans."
Tang Ran did not intend to hide anything from Chen Shuang and Rong He. Perhaps it was because of their age, and there was no interest or weighing of pros and cons. The friendship between the three was the purest, the kind that was worth risking one's life for.
"I overheard my parents talking. My uncle and aunt should be detained for investigation tomorrow. As for where they will be sent or when they will be sent away, I didn't hear anything."
Chen Shuang was in a very low mood. She was reluctant to part with her good sister, and also felt powerless as she couldn't help Tang Ran. Everything was fine originally, how could it change so suddenly?
"My uncle and aunt are being sent to the Northwest, tentatively in a month. I heard this from my grandfather, so it can't be wrong."
Tang Ran was a little worried about whether her parents would suffer during this month.
Tang Ran was very upset and always wanted to snatch her parents and brother away and run away, but the two would not agree.
"How about I go and ask my grandfather to find a way to get you there first, and then you can wait there for your uncle and aunt to come over?"
Rong He's words were not a test, but a confirmation that Tang Ran would find ways to stay with Tang Kangnian and Qi Min. If he were Tang Ran, he would do the same.
In addition, the current news about her is that she died by drowning, and no one in the northwest knows her. It is not impossible for her to secretly take care of her parents and brother, provided that someone can arrange it.
Tang Ran's eyelids twitched. In fact, there was no need to trouble others. She could give herself an identity. Quan Jiang's private seal was still in her space. As for letters of introduction, she could have as many as she wanted.
As for the household registration relationship, to be frank, money talks. There is only one reason why cooperation cannot be reached, and that is that the benefits are not attractive enough to make people interested. If they are interested, they will take action.
"Don't bother Grandpa Rong. I have something in mind. It's too late. You two should go home quickly to avoid being scolded."
Tang Ran pretended to stand up and leave with them.
"You can stay here for the time being. No one else will come."
Tang Ran shook her head and refused. It was not because she did not trust him, but because there was always a chance of something happening. She did not want to create any unnecessary trouble. At the end of her previous life, she could use any safe corner to rest. She was not that squeamish. Besides, she also wanted to go home tonight to see if she could clean up the things at home so that those bastards would not get away with it.
"Ranran, if I want to find you, how can I contact you?"
"Go back and stop making trouble. I'll write to you once I'm settled."
After leaving the small bungalow, the three of them parted ways.
Sometimes there really is no harm without comparison. In the hearts of Chen Shuang and Rong He, they have been anxious and angry about the Tang family's affairs for a long time. When they learned that Tang Ran had drowned, their irritability broke out. It is said that young people are not afraid of death, but when they really face the news of their friend's death, it is hard to accept it.
Now seeing the living Tang Ran again, the emotions of both of them were like a taut rubber band, loosening just a little bit, as if they had found a piece of candy among the broken glass.
…………
Tang Ran originally planned to go home, but although the plan was good, there was no way to implement it. The number of people monitoring the Tang family increased by twice as much as before, and Tang Ran had no chance at all.
Just as Rong He said, Tang Kangnian and Qi Min were taken away early the next morning, saying they were cooperating with the investigation, but conviction was only a matter of time.
Tang Ran has always been very satisfied with his light and space abilities, but now he is very envious of those with mental abilities that can control people.
For half a month, Tang Ran had no other way except to eavesdrop in an attempt to get some news about his parents.
Just when Tang Ran was planning to leave for the Northwest in advance to make some preparations, the Tang family decided that their destination was a remote brigade in the Northwest.
The change in time really caught Tang Ran off guard.
Tang Kangnian, Qi Min and Tang Wei were escorted by special personnel, while Tang Bo, who was controlled in the South China Sea, was sent to his destination by special personnel from there.
Tang Ran hurried as fast as she could and set off from Lin City to the Northwest on the same day. Just before getting on the train, she called her uncle Qi Zheng and said only six words - everything is fine, don't worry.
Qi Zheng was so anxious that his mouth was covered with blisters. His niece, who was supposed to arrive in four days, had disappeared, and his sister and brother-in-law were also under investigation. Qi Zheng couldn't even find anyone to ask about the situation. When the phone called, the first person he thought of was Tang Ran, but the other party didn't even give him time to say a word and hung up the phone. He didn't want to curse now, he wanted to cry, cry loudly, and no one could stop him.
Tang Ran had a good idea. She would be able to see her parents in three days. She didn't know what her parents' expressions would be when they saw her. They would probably be angry and scold her, but even so, Tang Ran felt a lot more at ease.
What Tang Ran didn't expect was that she had become down-to-earth too early.
When she arrived at the place where Tang Kangnian and his friends were supposed to go, she only saw his eldest brother and second brother, while her parents were nowhere to be found.
"Where are my parents?"
"My parents were kidnapped..."
Tang Ran felt her head buzzing, and she couldn't hear a word of what was said afterwards. What did it mean to be kidnapped?
If she had known this would be the outcome, she should have taken them and run away regardless.
