Jack had been watching from the side, so he naturally saw the interaction between the fat man and me. He smiled quietly and didn't expose my thoughts.
After a while, I walked over, patted the fat man on the shoulder, and said apologetically: "Sorry, Fatty, I shouldn't have said that to you just now!"
Fatty didn't expect me to be so straightforward
He glanced at me, scratched his head, and said, "Actually, I should have listened to you. I shouldn't have taken my emotions out on you and even hit you.
Seeing that the fat man was a little embarrassed, I had an idea and answered him naturally, "Of course, fatty, you hit me in the face on purpose, and so hard. You are getting more and more angry now!" As I said, I patted the fat flesh on the fat man's face with my hands to vent the pain of my swollen face.
The fat guy knew the resentment in my heart, and it was rare for him to be so obedient and let me pinch him, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Alright, since you both feel you're in the wrong, let's shake hands and make peace. Let's write this off! But if you dare hit me in the face again, I won't let you off easily, understand!"
I pinched the fat man's face hard, shook hands with him, and we looked at each other and smiled.
Jiang Lan was very happy to see the fat man and I shaking hands and making peace. Her heart was finally at ease. She was worried that we would have a quarrel because of this fight. Now that we have made peace, it means that the matter has come to an end.
The problem between Fatty and I has been solved, and I feel more comfortable with everything around me. After this emotional release, I believe there will be no problems in the short term.
"Now that we've shaken hands and made peace, we should talk about Jiang He's matter." Jack is always the calmest, and he lightly reminded us of something we had forgotten for so long.
Thinking of the missing Jiang Chu, everyone's mood became a little depressed again. After all, she disappeared in front of us, and we were a little worried that we couldn't take her away.
"Let's look for any clues around here! After all, the man in black spring clothes can't just disappear in the blink of an eye." I thought of the scene before Jiang Chu disappeared. According to my previous guess, he was the first to be affected.
Everyone nodded and prepared to disperse to look for it, but was stopped by Jack.
Wait a moment, don't be anxious, maybe Jiang Chu will be fine."
Jack's words left everyone confused: they looked at him strangely. After all, if nothing serious happened, why would the man in black take Jiang Chu away? And Jiang Lan fainted on the ground. Thinking of this, we all looked at Jack.
Jack didn't sell the coffin either, and said bluntly: "Why did the man in black only take Jiang Chu away? He obviously wanted the beads, but he took people away. Why is that, unless he wanted to use this to threaten our Youmu beads."
Jack's words reminded us that the man in black came for the beads, and it was understandable that he captured Jiang Chu if he couldn't get the beads.
After hearing these speculations, the fat man was immediately delighted. A huge smile spread across his face, like the sun's smile, and he said, "You mean Jiang Chu will be fine? Just hand over the beads!"
Jack pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said hesitantly, "Not necessarily. Actually, I'm curious why they didn't catch Jiang Lan when she fainted, but instead caught Qin Chu, who was being protected by a fat man."
As soon as the words fell, we all turned our gazes to Jiang Lan, looking at her with some scrutiny.
Our gazes were so focused that Qin Lan took a step back under our light, a look of fear on her face, worried about what we might do to her. Seeing Qin Lan's fear, I felt a little distressed and protected her behind me, blocking the gazes of Jack and the other three.
Jiang Lan was behind me, quietly sticking her head out and said pitifully: "Maybe it's because Sister Chu has something else she wants?"
After hearing this, as someone who likes Qin Lan, I naturally defended her, "Yes! These may be the reasons why she was taken away. Didn't you ask her before if she was the man in black? Maybe when Qin Chu left before, she got something outside and was chased here by the man in black? Or maybe Qin Chu left on her own." The more I talked, the more I felt that the last possibility was very high. After all, she looked very strange when she appeared, and I couldn't help but nod to my own guess.
My words seemed to open the door to their thinking, and everyone began to think about the reason why the men in black only captured Jiang Chu.
Fatty was the first to lose patience. After thinking for a while, he started to get anxious. He interrupted our thoughts and said, "No matter what the reason, we should find Jiang Chu first. Didn't you also say that she might not be safe? If we are a step late, she might be in trouble."
After saying that, the fat man couldn't wait any longer. Thinking about how Jiang Chu would be treated, he felt anxious and wanted to leave alone to find Jiang Chu. Fortunately, I saw through his thoughts in advance and quickly stopped him from leaving.
The fat man looked at my face, his expression was unhappy, but he didn't say anything.
"Okay, let's not think too much about it. Finding the person is the most important thing. Don't act alone. Let's split into two groups. Jack and Fatty, you two will be in one group, and Qin Lan, Xiao Ding, and I will be in another. Don't stray too far from Pin. We'll meet here in an hour. If anything goes wrong, remember to send out a signal flare or leave a secret message. Will you return tomorrow?"
I know that a lot of time has been wasted before. If we continue to discuss, Fatty will not wait any longer and may act alone. If something goes wrong then, it will be more trouble than gain.
Although I don't want to see Jiang Chu, my sense of responsibility tells me that I can't just abandon her like this, so I still have to find Jiang Chu. As for what happens next, I will make plans later. As for Xiao Ding, I have to take care of him personally to feel at ease, so this grouping is the best. Although I may not be able to defeat the men in black if I meet them, it is better than having to worry about them for an hour.
Watching them leave, I thought again, worried that they might find our tracks and leave. I immediately added loudly, "If you see us, don't rush to follow us. Come back to us, okay?"
The fat man couldn't wait to leave, and replied without looking back, "Got it!"
Jack, his back to us, raised his hand and waved to show he understood.
Xiao Ding, Jiang Lan and I watched their backs gradually being blocked by the bushes as they left, and then we turned around and left to investigate in another direction.
I walked in front, Jiang Lan and Xiao Ding walked behind me. I held the stick in my hand and slowly groped forward.
After walking for a while, Jiang Lan suddenly came to her senses, tugged at my sleeve weakly, and said, "I forgot to bring my weapon!"
When I heard this, I froze. She followed me to such an unsafe place without bringing anything with her. If she wasn't a woman, I would probably have been furious.
