Lan Yao calculated the time it would take to send the whistleblower letter, and when she figured it was about time, she strolled leisurely to the vicinity of the Lan family's residence. She wasn't far from the Lan family's residence to begin with, so she arrived quickly.
She had just arrived near the Lan family's residence when she heard the commotion. There weren't many people watching the commotion at this time, probably because everyone was quite afraid and worried that Hong Ge would take people away, fearing that this might happen to them or their families at any moment.
Lan Yao wasn't afraid. She was already skin and bones, and her hair had been deliberately shaved into a buzz cut by the Lan family. She was wearing tattered clothes covered in patches, and her straw sandals were so worn that her toes were showing. Looking like a beggar, who would pay her any attention? They would want to stay as far away from her as possible.
As Lan Yao approached, she noticed that the Lan family members all looked distressed, as if they had lost their parents.
You could faintly hear the Lan family members sobbing softly.
"Waaaaah. Did Grandpa and the others really run away?"
"Didn't Daddy want us anymore? Why did he run away without us?"
"Jiaojiao, how could she bear to leave me? Waaaaah."
"Damn it, who reported us? Don't let me find out."
Will we be sent to the countryside like Xu Yingxue's best friend?
"Speaking of which, doesn't the Xu family also have illegal and disorderly activities like us? Can we also report them to make amends for their past misdeeds? Besides the Xu family, there's also the Qian family?"
"Maybe so, we'll go ask in a bit."
Although Lan Yao was far away from them, she had regained some of her abilities from her previous life thanks to the nutrient solution she had been receiving these past few days, so she was able to hear what they were saying clearly.
Lan Yao couldn't help but sneer inwardly: What a bunch of cold-blooded, selfish bastards, they even tried to harm others.
Fortunately, the Xu and Qian families weren't exactly good people either.
You don't need to go to all that trouble to report it anymore; you can all reunite in the prison cell and celebrate together.
However, upon closer inspection, she quickly noticed that three people were missing from the Lan family group, and the Red Revolutionary Committee members escorting them also looked unwell.
Lan Yao used her mental power to scan the area and quickly obtained the information she wanted.
Lan Jiaojiao had already run off with Grandpa Lan and Lan Xingwang.
"Damn it! This really is the female lead's halo." Lan Yao muttered under her breath.
What should we do now?
Lan Yao rubbed her fingers together, her mind racing. The information she received from the Red Revolutionary Committee indicated that although Lan Jiaojiao and the other two had escaped, the Red Revolutionary Committee had reacted quickly and had already gone to the train station.
According to Lan Jiaojiao and her group, if they wanted to leave Shanghai as soon as possible, the first thing they would do was take the train.
They definitely can't take a plane now, and a truck? Anyone with a brain knows that what seems peaceful outside is actually chaotic. In places you don't normally see, there are plenty of people who commit murder, robbery, and all sorts of evil deeds. Lan Jiaojiao and her two companions have always lived in a wealthy family, so naturally they would never risk taking a truck.
This is on the premise that they cannot board the train.
Lan Yao felt that they definitely wouldn't be able to catch the train. The Red Revolutionary Committee had already called the train station, so they were definitely faster than Lan Jiaojiao and the other two.
However, given Lan Jiaojiao's protagonist luck, Lan Yao still went to the train station. Perhaps Lan Yao was lucky, because she ran into a train station employee whom Lan Jiaojiao was asking about.
Using her mental powers, Lan Yao learned that Lan Jiaojiao and the other two had left instead of boarding the train.
Based on her limited understanding of Grandpa Lan, they would definitely leave the city by taking a large truck.
Lan Yao made a quick decision and ran outside the city. She was determined not to let Lan Jiaojiao and the other two get away.
That wouldn't fit her kind-hearted persona, and Lan Yao wouldn't do something for nothing.
When Lan Yao finally found Lan Jiaojiao and the other two, they had already changed into even more tattered clothes and were hiding in the bushes, covered in dust and dirt.
It was summer, and there were many mosquitoes and insects in the grass. Lan Jiaojiao, a pampered young lady who had been raised in the Lan family since childhood, naturally couldn't stand it. Her hands and face were covered with bites, and they were very itchy.
"Grandpa, do we really have to hide in the bushes? Can't we find a secluded place to hide?" Lan Jiaojiao finally couldn't bear it any longer and asked in a low voice.
Grandpa Lan asked calmly, "Do you want us to get arrested?"
Lan Xingwang said impatiently, "If you don't want to stay with us, you can leave."
She's not their Lan family's daughter; they've already done enough by raising her for eighteen years.
Lan Jiaojiao immediately looked aggrieved and whispered, "There are so many mosquitoes here. I'm worried that Grandpa is too old and his body can't handle it."
If it weren't for the fact that she now looks like a pig's head, relying on her former sweet appearance, speaking with this expression, Lan Xingwang might have felt sorry for her.
Unfortunately, her sweet appearance is no longer there.
"Alright. Stop with your little schemes." Lan Xingwang looked at Old Master Lan. "Dad, how much longer do we have to wait? Are you sure it's okay?"
Grandpa Lan looked at Lan Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao went to find out. Jiaojiao is so well-behaved, she would never lie to us."
Lan Jiaojiao rolled her eyes inwardly, but still feigned a pitiful expression: "Grandpa, believe me, the information I just heard is true. They said that several large trucks will pass through this dirt road in the evening. I just don't know where they're going."
Grandpa Lan hummed in agreement and praised with a smile, "Jiaojiao is really great. Grandpa will have to rely on you to go to Hong Kong."
Once we arrive in the port city, whether to stay there or go abroad will be something to consider later.
