Chapter 213: Extreme Cold. Heading to Lian City
Chu An thanked Wang Jue for telling the truth. Before leaving, he said he wanted to visit Wang Wende's home and asked him to help lead the way.
Wang Jue looked unusual, took one look at his father's disabled leg, gritted his teeth and agreed.
The three people said goodbye to Wang Wenxing. Chu An stopped halfway and asked him whether he wanted to talk here or go somewhere else. Wang Jue hit his head hard and led them into the alley next to him.
Gu Ye was a little confused, but he also felt that the atmosphere was wrong, so he stayed close to Chu An to deal with any emergencies.
The three of them stood still in the alley. Wang Jue sighed and squatted on the ground, "I stole that watch."
"You just lied?" Gu Ye's eyebrows drooped instantly, "Where did you steal it from?"
Wang Jue hit his head a few more times, "I really didn't mean it. I don't know what happened at that time."
"I don't care whether you found it or stole it, I just want to know where the owner of the watch is?"
Wang Jue slowly raised his head, "I have never seen the man you are talking about. This watch was stolen from our store manager. He owed us three months' salary. One time I passed by his desk and saw this watch on the table, so I just took it."
"Did your store manager tell you where you got the watch?"
"No, he doesn't always wear this watch. Sometimes he just puts it on the table or in a drawer."
"What's the store manager's name, where does he live, where is the store, and what is the store's name?"
"The store manager is called Han Qi, he is from Linshi, so he should live in Linshi. However, our store is in Dongwan, so he usually lives in the store. The name of the store is Qiji Beer and Grill."
Going to Dongwan from here is not much different from going from Lian City. She didn't want to give up going to Lian City to find Lao Chu's classmates.
"I didn't lie on purpose. Please don't tell my dad about this. My dad has had a very difficult time and I don't want to make him worry." Wang Jue pleaded.
Chu An nodded. After all, she had to thank Wang Jue for stealing the watch, otherwise this clue would never be found.
"Okay, stand up now." Gu Ye said coldly, "If you don't want your dad to worry, stop doing sneaky things."
"Except for me, all of us in the Wang family are good citizens who abide by the law. But now there is no way to survive if we abide by the law. I don't know what to do."
Chu An took a deep breath, "If your uncle had evil thoughts, I would not save him at all. The way to survive is not to actively do evil, but to always stay vigilant and clear-headed, and act decisively. If others do not offend me, I will not offend others. If someone offends me, I will kill him."
Gu Ye raised his eyebrows. Although Xiao An's tone was cold, there was warmth between the lines. This was the first time she said so much to a stranger.
"I...I understand too." Wang Jue stood up and lowered his head.
"You can go back. If they ask, just say I have something urgent to do and can't go."
"Oh, so you guys are going to Linshi?"
"Don't worry about that." Chu An took out a pen and paper from his bag and handed it to him, "Draw me a rough map of the barbecue bar."
Wang Jue hurriedly took it, but after just a few strokes, Gu Ye stopped him and snatched the brush away, "You tell me, I'll draw."
Wang Jue was embarrassed and began to describe it to him.
Chu An has an offline map, so it is not difficult to locate the barbecue bar. The only thing to be worried about is that the map may have problems, so it is better to keep a backup plan.
After a while, the map was finished and Chu An was very satisfied. It was even more detailed than the map on his mobile phone.
She had nothing more to ask, and the three of them were preparing to go back home. But as soon as they turned around, they saw six men walking in from the exit. They were all tall, and except for the two men walking in front, they all carried long knives.
There was a dead end inside, and it was obviously aimed at them.
"It's over, it's Brother Cao." Wang Jue knew the man. He had been hanging around in Shierlipu before the natural disaster and opened an express delivery point. He often opened other people's packages and threatened the complainants when he was complained about. His store was almost bankrupt.
"Oh, it's Wang Jue." The man next to Brother Cao said arrogantly, "You're wearing too many clothes, so I couldn't tell it was you. What are you doing here with these two people? If you have any way to make money, don't just keep it for yourself, introduce it to me, Brother Zhou."
“Brother Zhou, these two are my distant relatives. Their home was flooded and they narrowly escaped death before finding this place. They came to seek refuge with our family.” Wang Jue tried to sound as miserable as possible.
"I heard from your brother Zhou that they stayed at the elementary school for more than ten days. If they are your relatives, why don't they live in your house?"
"This... our place is small."
"Bullshit, I think you are just trying to deceive us." Brother Zhou interrupted Wang Jue and said harshly, "You should know what the consequences of deceiving Brother Cao are, right?"
Wang Jue's face was pale. He went to build the base to avoid them.
Brother Cao had been trying to get him to join the gang, but he didn't want to do evil with them. His father and uncle also said that if he dared to join, they would break his legs. As a result, he was targeted everywhere, and things didn't get better until he left.
"Brother Cao, I really didn't lie."
"You didn't lie, or you just can't bear to part with your woman. Wang Jue, you asked for this."
Brother Zhou and his two men quickened their pace, saying obscene words while scraping the wall with knives, the sound was piercing.
"It's over. They kill without blinking an eye. Aunt Wang's family died in their hands before." Wang Jue looked around the alley for weapons, but found nothing. Finally, he picked up an ice pick. "We can only rush out later. I'll try my best to hold them back. You go first."
The last sentence is enough.
Gu Ye patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me."
Wang Jue looked at him worriedly, "There are six of them."
The next moment, Chu An calmly took three steps back to give them space for fighting.
???
"Just wait and see."
Gu Ye took out his black stone dagger and rushed forward. After this period of training, it should be no problem for him to deal with six people at the same time. Moreover, the alley was narrow and only three people could pass through at the same time. It was impossible for them to attack together.
"It's no use looking for help." Brother Zhou stopped, still looking smug.
As a result, the two men were like two balls of cotton. They were knocked down by Gu Ye in just two moves and couldn't even stand up.
Brother Zhou was stunned for a moment. Gu Ye's movements were clean and neat, as if he had practiced them. He quickly turned around and looked at Brother Cao.
"Let's go together."
Brother Cao finally spoke, but when Brother Zhou led his men to charge forward, he retreated.
Gu Ye sneered, and easily killed Brother Zhou and crippled the other two. When Brother Cao ran to the alley, he threw the Black Stone Dagger into his back.
The long legs stepped over the person lying on the ground and walked to the alley to get the knife.
“Let’s go too.” Chu An walked out, leaving Wang Jue alone in the wind. The problem was solved so easily, in just three minutes!!!
The words Chu An just said echoed in his mind: I will not offend anyone unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will kill him.
When he came to his senses and ran out of the alley, Chu An and Gu Ye had already walked more than ten meters away. He hurriedly shouted, "Thank you, thank you."
Chu An and Gu Ye returned to the elementary school, and it was already dark. They decided to stay overnight before setting off again. However, a snowstorm suddenly hit the next day, and visibility was less than three meters. They were forced to stay for two more days.
We waited until the wind and snow subsided a little before packing up and leaving, our destination being Lian City.
