Lin Dongfang wasn't stupid. After hearing what Zhuzhu told him and recalling the scene, he described it to his uncle Lin Zhengde on the way here. Seeing Lin Zhengde's face darken instantly, what else didn't he understand?
Don't express gratitude, but also don't be ungrateful and blame others.
Putting everything else aside, one must be able to distinguish between good and bad.
If this really happens, it will be a sensational event.
Let's not even talk about how the people of Liujiatun will definitely be the first to be affected, since this is already the outer perimeter, and this person shows no sign of stopping, so they are sure to get closer and closer to the foot of the mountain and the village.
At that time, their own situation will be a minor matter. There will be casualties, destruction of forests, and possibly some political maneuvering, and even disputes and frictions on the border. Lin Zhengde will also be implicated and questioned.
Actually, when you think about it carefully, Jian Dan is their benefactor.
"Don't think about those things. Zhuzhu and I aren't ignorant. We can see things clearly."
However, you should also avoid rushing into danger. You're not an adult yet, are you? First and foremost, you need to ensure your own safety.
Tell me about yourself,”
He looked back, then lowered his voice and said,
"To put it bluntly, catching bad guys isn't your responsibility. Yes, we all don't want to let them get away with it, but can't we think of some other ways?"
Yes, you're skilled, but what if he has other weapons in his hand, or…
Lin Dongfang's words became increasingly serious, until even he himself shuddered.
"If he had a bomb strapped to his body and set it on fire when no one was looking, wouldn't you feel wronged?"
The possibility of this was extremely slim, and Jian Dan knew it was Lin Dongfang making it up, but he still listened attentively and nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, I got it, I'll remember it,"
Lin Dongfang is becoming increasingly indecisive, especially after Mingzhu became pregnant, and even Jian Dan has benefited from it.
The little girl ate a whole fish by herself, leaving only the hard-to-eat middle part, which she kept gnawing on. Her little face was covered in small pieces of fish meat. I was speechless, but I still took out a handkerchief to wipe her face. Those black stubble marks couldn't be wiped off, so I'll have to wash them when we get home.
"Aren't you full yet?"
That fish weighed about a pound; even after removing the bones and other parts, it was still quite heavy.
"I want more!"
Lin Dongfang smiled.
"Eat if you want. Here, this is good too. Take a bite of the tail first, it's crunchy and delicious."
Jian Xin took it and bit off the tip of the tail with a "whoosh".
The three men shared the remaining fish, and Li Guang, who hadn't had a chance to speak the entire time, finally got a chance to speak.
"This fish is so delicious! No wonder Xin Xin has been craving it. We've grilled it before, but we could never get rid of the fishy smell."
This was the first time Li Guang had left Chen Jing and Gu Jianjun's team since he came here, and he was eager to learn a skill to bring back for them to try.
"Brother Lin, do you have any secrets to making this grilled fish?"
Lin Dongfang laughed generously.
"What's the secret? You saw it yourself, I took it over from Cheng Chao halfway through. If you're talking about secrets, there are some, but they're not techniques, they're seasonings."
seasoning?
Li Guang immediately remembered the packet of seasoning that Jian Dan had handed to Cheng Chao when they first started roasting.
"Sister Jian Dan, these are the seasonings you got, right? Um, could you sell, no, could you give me some?"
The young man blushed and scratched his head; it was quite cute.
"You want to go back and make this for your two friends to eat together?"
"Yes, you don't know, I'm so strong thanks to the two of them. But, Jing is a bit picky about food. Otherwise, seeing how thin he is, there are many things he can't eat. Jun and I thought that there are more things in the countryside, and we can go up the mountain to find more things for Jing."
No wonder, Chen Jing didn't seem like someone who was so poor he couldn't afford to eat, yet he was so thin.
Looking at the fish in the basket and the pheasant beside it, Li Guang couldn't tell what she could lack. She was so casual about meat, what else could she possibly lack?
"Okay, if you don't mind, there's still quite a bit of seasoning left in that packet."
"I don't mind at all, I don't mind at all,"
Fearing that the simple sentence might end with a "but" or similar phrase, Li Guang quickly put away the paper package, carefully folded it, and gently placed it into his pocket.
Although it tasted delicious, Lin Dongfang couldn't help but glance at its cautiousness several times.
If the garrison comes, it will definitely be dealt with seriously. He wiped the black ash from Xin Xin's mouth and her black little hands, and then quickly tidied up the scene and prepared to leave.
When Cheng Chao accompanied Lin Zhengde and Cheng Jin out, all they saw was the extinguished fire. As for the fish that he had just grilled for a while, even the bones were gone.
No, that's not right. The bones are still there; they're in the fire.
With a look of accusation,
"You guys are really going too far! You didn't even leave me a single one, and you ate them all?"
After working hard all day, Jian Dan felt a little embarrassed because she hadn't eaten anything, and coughed lightly twice.
But Jian Xin wouldn't. She was happy, and after running a few steps over, she extended two black fingers.
"I ate two!"
He even let out a burp as he spoke, which was quite fitting for the occasion.
"you!"
Cheng Chaoqi was so angry that she reached out and pinched her little cheek.
Are you craving me, hmm?
You heartless little brat, I haven't even had any yet!
Hurry up and give me one, give me one...
The two, one big and one small, started bickering as they talked.
The fire went out, but the smell was still very strong. Cheng Jin sniffed. This smell was indeed enticing. No wonder that kid kept thinking about it.
These two people knew each other, exchanged a few words, and then decided to go down the mountain. They had important business to attend to, and it wasn't appropriate for her to stay there.
Lin Zhengde and his companion didn't intend to say much more; they needed to take the man back for questioning as soon as possible.
"Xiao Jian, we are very happy that you have discovered such an important clue, but if there is a next time, please make sure that your personal safety is the most important thing."
I was reminded of this for the second time today, and I simply agreed repeatedly.
Both groups were coming down the mountain and would be traveling the same route for the time being.
Cheng Chao and Jian Xin became inseparable again, chattering away. The girl seemed to have endless things to say, and Cheng Chao was patient.
"Then you absolutely have to come tomorrow! I won't eat; I'll just wait for you to make roast chicken."
"Okay, I'll definitely come, but I can't skip a meal. What if I can only come the day after tomorrow?"
"You're going back on your word? Didn't you say tomorrow?"
Cheng Chao then offered a sophistry,
I meant tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
"You were talking about tomorrow! I heard you."
"I...no," Cheng Chao began to coax again in a low, humble voice.
"What if we're both very busy tomorrow and can't make it out? Right?"
The little girl looked at him suspiciously, seemingly disbelieving. She rested her chin on her hand, thought for a long time, and finally came up with a good idea.
"Oh well,"
Before Cheng Chao could even feel happy, he heard the next sentence.
"Since you're so busy, then don't bother coming. I'll come to you instead. That way you can get the job done, right?"
