My mother asked quickly, "What happened to you? I was so scared that I was going to call your father to see what happened." I looked at the mushrooms in my mother's hand, and I couldn't tell that she was "scared to death". She looked very leisurely. But at this time, I could only say, "It's okay, it's a misunderstanding. I was released this morning." Then I sat over and picked up a vegetable and started to string it. The four of us were busy in an orderly manner, and the living room presented a strange harmony.
The two mothers were chatting about business, and Tiekuai was curious, asking questions like "What ingredients are in the soup?" and "What's the approximate profit of a skewer?" It seemed like he was going to change his career and sell spicy hot pot. The two mothers answered seriously and suggested that Tiekuai open his own store, as the small cart was unhygienic. Tiekuai nodded seriously, as if he really had this plan. I couldn't help it and asked, "What happened last night?" As soon as I said this, the living room became quiet and all three of them looked at me.
My mom: “I don’t know what’s going on.”
Yu's mother: "What happened last night?"
Iron Block: "What happened last night?"
I looked at Tiekuai: "Where were you when the police came last night?" Tiekuai asked curiously: "Did the police come last night? I don't know. I was lying on your bed when I woke up." After hearing this answer, I opened my mouth in surprise and looked at my mother unconsciously. My mother also looked confused and said: "I don't know what happened, but when I woke up in the morning, he was lying on your bed." I stared at Tiekuai and then at my mother, not understanding what happened at all.
Yu's mother interrupted and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Of course, no one paid any attention to her. I lowered my head and pondered for a while, then looked up at Tiekuai. He was still grinning foolishly. But I still suspected him. I guess he sensed the danger in advance, hid himself first, then sneaked back, and now he is playing a mysterious game in front of me again. Although Uncle Qi said that he would not wake up until at least seven or eight hours later, I believe that with Tiekuai's physical condition, it would not be surprising if he woke up early. No matter what the truth is, Tiekuai always has his own reasons for not telling the truth. As long as he is safe, that's enough.
I breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "It's okay." Then I lowered my head to thread the skewers, and slowly my face became happy, and I started chatting with everyone. After finishing the work, we went to the store in the farmer's market again. Tiekuai carefully investigated, as if he really considered changing his career. I joked with him, "Do you want to live a peaceful life?" Tiekuai said seriously, "I will get old one day, and one day I can no longer make a living by my skills." After busying myself for a while, Tiekuai and I went outside the store and sat down at a table outside.
I told him about my experience last night and mentioned that Li Kai let us go. Tiekuai smiled and said, "This guy is interesting. I'd like to make friends with him." Then he said, "The fact that the Qi family's killers can find this place shows that the battle in Xinxiang has entered a fierce stage. I have to go back and help Master Ye. I have something to trouble you with."
I immediately became serious: "Go ahead."
"After I leave, the Qi family may send killers again. So I'll trouble you to take care of Teacher Yuan Xiaoyi. You must put her in an absolutely safe place." Tiekuai's eyes were filled with determination and trust.
I became a little nervous: "An absolutely safe place? Does a tube-shaped building count?" In my mind, a tube-shaped building should be pretty cool.
Tiekuai thought for a moment, nodded and said, "There are many talented people in the building. If they agree to take care of Teacher Yuan, it will be a very safe place." I breathed a sigh of relief: "That's fine. I will arrange for Teacher Yuan to live in the building." I thought to myself that it should not be difficult to let Yuan Xiaoyi live with the beautiful sister. After getting my consent, Tiekuai immediately stood up, peeked around, and said, "I think the police will come to find you again soon. Next, you just need to clear yourself of responsibility."
I said with a headache: "You already looked for me yesterday, and you're looking for me again today? No way?"
Tiekuai smiled and said to me, "Nice to meet you. I hope we can meet again in the future. Finally, I'll tell you one thing. When you are out on the run, be sure to turn off your cell phone, otherwise the police will be able to locate you."
Now I finally know how Liu Qingfei found me.
After that, Tiekuai walked towards the entrance of the farmer's market without any more nonsense. I stood up quickly and said to his back: "Hey, your injury is not healed yet..." But Tiekuai did not turn around, and his tall figure quickly disappeared from my sight.
Before I could even sigh, my mother came out and sat beside me and asked, "Can you tell me what happened now?" Looking at my mother's eager and worried eyes, I felt extremely ashamed. I must have scared her last night. If she knew that her son was a gangster, murdering and setting fires, she would be very sad. I shook my head and pretended to be relaxed: "It's okay, Mom, it's just a misunderstanding. My friend had a fight outside and hurt the other person a little bit, so the police are looking for him now. He went out to hide and will come back when the storm is over."
My mother nodded, as if she was somewhat relieved, and said, "Stay away from these people in the future. They look scary."
