"Eat, eat, all you ever think about is eating! Are you all foodies? How's the business we asked you to handle going? Has he given all the answers?"
Although Captain Gong was unhappy about being disturbed, he still handed over the lunchbox.
He only needs to eat two; the rest he can share with his brothers.
The young comrade took a steamed bun and ate it while replying, "Captain, that guy surnamed Jin is a coward. Knowing he couldn't escape this time, he really cooperated."
"However, that old man is still dreaming, thinking that he can leave as long as he doesn't say anything, and he's still being stubborn."
Captain Gong wasn't surprised by this answer.
That old man had seen a lot over the years, so he wasn't afraid, because he felt he still had someone to rely on.
This can't be rushed.
"What did Captain Han say? Does he have any thoughts?"
The young comrade told Captain Gong everything that Han Qingfeng had told him.
While they were talking, they finished a large steamed bun in just a few bites.
He wanted to eat more, but Captain Gong slapped him hard across the face: "What, you're eating all by yourself? Don't you plan to share with the others?"
"Take these over there and share them. If you think it's not enough, go to the state-run restaurant next door and buy some more. Don't even think about eating it all by yourself."
The young man chuckled, grabbed his lunchbox, and ran off.
After everyone had walked away, Captain Gong got up and prepared to go to the police station.
...
After Xia Anyan returned from there, she was stopped by the old man.
"Yan Yan, where did you go so early in the morning?"
The old man was getting on in years and his sleep wasn't as deep, so he naturally knew that his granddaughter had gone out early in the morning.
He didn't know where she went, and he was asking these questions to find out his granddaughter's plans.
Xia Anyan pursed her lips, seemingly hesitating whether or not to speak.
"Grandpa, I just went to see Captain Gong."
Grandpa Xia sighed.
He understood perfectly well, but his granddaughter really didn't need to go to such lengths.
Since the deed is already done, there's no way to change it. As long as they pay more attention in the future and don't cause trouble for that kid Gu Shen, that's fine.
“Grandpa, since it was my mistake, I have to correct it. And have you forgotten? I am a military family member. Only if I do things well can people feel that Ashen did not make the wrong choice.”
“I’ve already held him back, and I really don’t want him to go through anything more.”
The old man sighed.
As a military dependent, there are many things to do.
His granddaughter still has a long way to go.
"Okay, you can go back and rest now."
The old man waved his hand, signaling Xia Anyan to go back.
For the next two days, they remained quiet and did not think about going out; they stayed in the guesthouse.
However, sometimes, staying indoors doesn't guarantee safety.
Old Man Qian knew he might not be able to leave this time, and he was completely enraged, so he began to retaliate.
Suddenly, Mu Cangsheng's voice rang out in the quiet guesthouse.
"What's going on?" Old Master Xia suddenly stood up and looked towards the door.
At this time, everyone gathered at the old man's place for a meal.
They were startled when they heard the noise.
No one expected that such a thing would happen at the guesthouse.
"Ah, run!"
Screams echoed throughout the entire floor.
The next moment, another wooden sound rang out, followed by a woman's scream and a child's crying.
These sounds intertwined, creating a chilling effect.
"Father, you all stay in your rooms. I'm going out to check on things." Zhang Jun'an got up, intending to leave.
But Xia Anyan grabbed his arm: "Dad, don't go."
"We need to lock the door and make sure we don't go out. I... I have a feeling that this is not a simple matter."
Xia Anyan had barely finished speaking when they heard a conversation outside the door: "Which room is that woman named Xia Anyan in?"
"Everyone inside, get out here! If anyone doesn't come out, we'll find out and they'll all die!"
Are they here to see her?
Once Xia Anyan understood this, she couldn't help but feel panicked.
Who exactly is it?
Who could possibly want her dead?
Gu's mother held Xia Anyan's hand, her eyes filled with anxiety and worry.
She forced a trembling voice and said, "Ayan, quick, quick, hide!"
Xia Anyan looked around. The room was small, and there was nowhere to hide.
Moreover, if those people can't find her, they might harm her family.
She ran away, but what about the rest of her family?
"Mom, don't worry."
"The police station is very close here. When they came in, they opened fire with a gun, making a lot of noise. Some people outside have already gone to find the police. We just need to wait."
Although she said that, that wasn't what she really thought.
Since these people were able to break in, it means that the people at the front desk are also in grave danger.
With each sound of doors being kicked open, Xia Anyan's nerves were stretched to the limit.
The sound grew closer, and the group stood together, comforting each other.
The door was blocked by the table, and even the wardrobe was moved there by them.
Wait a minute, they'll definitely find someone in this room, and they might launch a coordinated attack.
I just hope the police officers from the local station can arrive soon!
"Damn it, boss, there's definitely someone in this room. We can't kick this door open!"
Sure enough, after the door was kicked open, voices could be heard.
The repeated stomping of the door made everyone extremely tense.
"Ha, I've finally found you. So you were hiding here."
"Xia Anyan, the person we're dealing with is you. As long as you come out now and come with us, I promise we won't hurt anyone around you or anyone else in this guesthouse."
"But if you don't behave, don't blame me for being ruthless towards you and them. If you're a minute late, I'll kill someone. You can think it over, but I can't guarantee that these people outside can handle it!"
threaten!
Threatening people with their lives!
Xia Anyan felt somewhat desperate.
She wanted to go out, but was held back tightly by Gu's mother and Grandpa Xia.
They are human beings, and human beings have feelings.
They are willing to sacrifice themselves to save others, but they are unwilling to let their closest loved ones sacrifice themselves to save them.
"Grandpa, Mom, I have to go out."
If she doesn't go out, those people outside are doomed!
"Moreover, that person just said that they only wanted to take me away, not kill me."
"So, we still have a chance, we still have time. We just need to wait!"
Xia Anyan tried to persuade them.
But the old man held on tightly: "No! I said no, and that's final!"
