This is easy to understand, that is to say, he will do whatever Shen Mingxi wants him to do.
Shen Mingxi transformed into the dark-faced man in his thirties.
She strode into the small noodle shop with the young man wearing glasses, who was also the puppet. After ordering two bowls of noodles, the two of them sat down, right next to Shen Hai and Ji Daju.
The two were also very hungry. They had two large bowls of noodles and ordered another one when they were halfway through, so they had enough time.
Shen Hai was eating noodles when he heard two guests who had just arrived at the table next to him. One of the dark-faced men said in a muffled voice, "Xiao Liu, your business trip will be a bit hard this time. My second brother's health has been poor since the beginning of winter. I hope you can find the medicines I told you about, otherwise I'm afraid my second brother won't survive this winter..."
With the mutual understanding of each other's minds, the puppet continued to speak. The voice was a little strange, as if it was an electronically synthesized voice, or as if it was reciting, very mechanically.
But it's hard to tell because the tone has slowed down.
Moreover, there are all kinds of strange things in this world. At this moment, there are about a dozen people sitting in the restaurant. Including the store owner and the waiter, no one would think that this young man wearing glasses is a dummy or a puppet, so even if he speaks a little strangely, no one would doubt it.
"Fourth brother, don't worry. We have such a good relationship and you have helped me so much. I will definitely take care of this little thing for you. I can't find these medicines. I'll go somewhere else."
The dark-faced man showed gratitude, "Thank you so much."
At Shen Mingxi's instruction, the puppet asked in a shrill voice, "I remember that he was much better at the beginning of winter last year. Didn't the leader give him a year of sick leave? How could it be so serious?"
"You don't know. At that time, the two girls in wheelchairs from Kaoshan Village who came from the north city fell into the sea. The water was so cold in that season. My brother and his men went down to rescue her. The wheelchair and the people were very heavy. My brother and his men put in a lot of effort, especially my brother, who kept holding the wheelchair and the girl named Baozhi in the sea..."
At this point, Shen Hai and Ji Daju's hearts skipped a beat, especially Ji Daju, whose chopsticks fell onto the table. Her face changed, and she was about to turn around to ask, but unexpectedly Shen Hai glared at her fiercely, then pinched her wrist hard and said in a low voice, "Don't quarrel yet..."
After all, Shen Hai had seen more of the world than Ji Daju, and he was also panicked at this time. But from what the two men said, the sick person was trying to save Baozhi. What if she was really his daughter? If they went forward rashly, wouldn't they be entangled?
Although they have some money now, it is not much. It is impossible to ask them to use the money to compensate them, not even a penny.
The two men didn't dare to say a word. They picked up the chopsticks and shoveled noodles into their mouths absentmindedly, but their ears were perked up.
The two people next to them didn't seem to notice anything unusual about the two men and continued talking about their own things.
"I heard that the girl's name is Shen Baozhi, and the old lady is her grandmother. I don't know why such an old lady brought a little girl in a wheelchair all the way here, and to the seaside..."
This is what the puppet said.
The dark-faced man nodded. "I know about this. The old lady brought her granddaughter to see the sea, and she also wanted to take a boat to fulfill her wish. It sounded quite pitiful, so we let them go. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen? It's really unlucky..."
Logically, Shen Mingxi and the others should not have known about what happened in the harbor, but Ouyang Xu did find out and found an opportunity to tell Shen Yu alone.
After all, even Ouyang Xu didn't know that Old Lady Shen and Shen Baozhi had gone to Beichuan at that time.
But Ouyang Xu knew exactly what happened in the harbor.
As for Mrs. Shen and her companions, they reversed their car and went to Beichuan halfway, and no one else knew what happened.
This time Shen Mingxi planned to let the two of them go to Beichuan.
"I've heard about this, too. What happened next? Didn't the old lady go to see your brother and his family? She was their lifesaver, right?"
The dark-faced man curled his lips in disdain, and said in a somewhat resentful voice, "Don't mention it. After those two woke up from the hospital, they asked someone to help buy tickets for them, saying that they were going to Beichuan..."
Beichuan.
Ji Daju didn't know about this place, but Shen Hai did. He and Ji Daju looked at each other, and seeing Ji Daju's confused look, she frowned with disgust, and her heart was beating non-stop. Did his mother and Baozhi go to Beichuan? What did they do in Beichuan? Is there anything good there? I guess that's the case, but why haven't they come back yet? Shen Hai was thinking about it here, and the black-faced man and the puppet continued to talk.
"Are you sure you're going to Beichuan?"
"Yes, I'm sure. We reversed halfway and the destination was Beichuan. I heard that they have relatives there. They ran really fast..."
"They ran away secretly without any expression. Anyway, they made your brother unable to get out of bed until now..."
"So I just can't get over this. Just wait, when I find out where their home is, I will definitely go to look for them. Even if I have to pay for the trip, I can't get over this. How can there be such an ungrateful beast? If it wasn't for saving them, my brother would have lost his job and would be half dead. You don't even know that if this continues, our family will break up..."
The puppet nodded.
The sound was still shrill, but no one tried to tell whether it was real or fake.
"It does sound infuriating. When I come back, I'll help you find it. They used a letter of introduction to register for the hotel. We can easily find out where it is..."
The dark-faced man reached out his hand and patted the puppet, saying with satisfaction, "Thank you so much, when you come back in a few days, we will go together and try to resolve this matter before the New Year..."
After hearing this, Shen Hai and Ji Daju both understood. They were scared, looked at each other, and hurriedly ate the noodles. Then they hurriedly left. After they both left, Shen Mingxi breathed a sigh of relief.
The noodles were served, but the puppet naturally wouldn't eat them. Shen Mingxi pretended to check the time, and suddenly stood up and said to the puppet, "Look, you've almost missed the time just because you were busy talking. No, it's too late. I'll take you to the car."
