"Second brother, what are you looking at? Let's hurry up and find a place to stay temporarily."
Liu Shile looked at her second brother with a puzzled expression. The pedestrians had already gone far away, so why was her second brother staring at them?
Even if there are people on the deck, there are so many people here that they probably wouldn't dare to do anything reckless.
So Liu Shile wasn't worried at all. She tugged at the luggage her second brother was carrying and asked.
Her voice instantly startled Liu Shihua awake.
He pursed his lips, glanced at his sister with some hesitation, and then looked at the noisy surroundings.
"Lele, come with me first." It wasn't convenient to talk here, and Liu Shihua dared not voice his guesses here.
Liu Shile was puzzled, but she obediently nodded.
Then she followed her second brother and strode away, but the further she walked, the more confused she became.
What's wrong with her second brother?
No matter how she looked at him, she felt he was following that group of people who were hurrying away!
That's really strange. Why would his second brother want to follow those people?
Those people, from what she saw and heard, were not to be trifled with.
If those people discover they're following them, they're likely to face dire consequences.
After following them for a while, those people were picked up and taken away.
Seeing that she could no longer keep up, Liu Shihua stamped her feet in frustration.
"Second Brother?" Liu Shile had no idea what he was in such a hurry for.
Upon hearing her sister's voice, Liu Shihua glanced at her apologetically.
He was so focused on following those people that he didn't pay attention to his younger sister. She's always been delicate, and he's probably exhausted.
"Lele, I'm sorry." His voice was low and somewhat dejected.
Liu Shile was speechless. His second brother was good in every way, except that he sometimes liked to overthink things.
I don't know what he was thinking, but he came to apologize to me so eagerly.
"Second brother, are you planning to follow them?"
Liu Shile pointed to the group of people who had disappeared around the street corner and asked.
Hearing her sister ask this, Liu Shihua nodded somewhat awkwardly.
"Why?" she asked, puzzled. Her second brother wasn't the type to do things for no reason.
After hesitating for a moment, Liu Shihua lowered her voice and said, "I just saw that the comrade who gave us the ointment was among those people!"
But the person who delivered the ointment to us wasn't there. I felt something was off. Where did he go?
That person was not only strikingly handsome, but also possessed an extraordinary aura.
If he and his companions appear together, anyone can tell who the master is.
However, that person is not here now. Why is that?
Upon hearing what her second brother said, Liu Shile's eyes flickered slightly.
"Second Brother, are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else? There are many people on the ship, and it's not uncommon for people to look alike."
She dared not make a hasty judgment, but she had overheard their conversation.
And the fact that they had just carried another box away made her think even more.
If that person really is the one my second brother saw, and he's currently with those people...
This suggests that he is very likely an inside agent, or... a traitor?
And that person was most likely outmaneuvered by someone working together from the inside.
She had noticed it before; the man looked refined, but he had some martial arts skills.
There's no way an ordinary person could do anything to him.
However, if the people around you have problems, the outcome will be different.
She raised her eyebrows slightly.
So, that aloof man fell for it?
"I can't be wrong, I remember he had a birthmark on his arm."
Liu Shihua spoke very seriously, and it was only because it was summer and everyone was wearing less clothing that he could see it.
If it were winter, he wouldn't dare say he wasn't mistaken.
After all, my sister is right. There are so many people in the world, and it's not uncommon for people to look alike. What if we're mistaken?
"Ah, is that so? Then it must be the same person. So, Second Brother, what are you doing following them?"
Liu Shile had no interest in meddling in other people's business; whether or not that person was infected was irrelevant to her.
She now understands that the reason those people attacked her and her brother was probably because that man had been in contact with them.
Otherwise, if they had just stayed put, they probably wouldn't have gotten themselves killed.
Although he came to apologize sincerely, offering money and medicine.
Firstly, they had injured their own second brother, and secondly, he had also caused them trouble.
Therefore, they are now even.
When we meet again, we'll be strangers!
Liu Shihua pursed her lips, then looked at her sister seriously and said, "Lele, I just want to make sure he's safe."
He was mainly thinking about what he had experienced on the ship.
He didn't think the man was a bad person, because even though his companion had injured him, the man had given him medicine.
Such a person shouldn't just disappear like that!
Liu Shile originally wanted to say, what does his safety have to do with us?
But seeing the inexplicable light in her second brother's eyes, she swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
My second brother, with his pure heart, shouldn't be hurt by the person closest to him.
"So what does Second Brother want now?" After thinking for a moment, Liu Shile finally asked softly.
The light in Liu Shihua's eyes had not yet faded, and it was surprisingly bright. Her tone was somewhat urgent, but also somewhat apologetic.
"Lele, do you... do you have any way to help your second brother confirm this?"
Second brother knows that doing this is difficult for you, but he was a good man, and he shouldn't have died without anyone knowing..."
In the past, Liu Shihua would never have made such a request.
But isn't it because my sister had such a bizarre experience?
What if my sister has a solution?
Liu Shile: "..."
Can she refuse?
But the hope in her second brother's eyes made her unable to refuse.
She sighed inwardly. Since her second brother had said so, she couldn't just brush it off.
He simply nodded and said, "No problem, Second Brother. I'll go check on the situation."
"Second brother, find a place nearby and wait for me. I'll be back soon."
She actually knew that the person was safe for the time being.
I had overheard their conversation while I was on the deck.
They arrested the man for a different purpose; they didn't intend to kill him.
But she couldn't tell her second brother about this right away. Some things, only when he experienced them himself, would the memory be more profound.
Seeing his younger sister agree to the matter without saying a word, Liu Shihua felt uneasy and was really conflicted.
She wanted to know how the person was doing, but she was also worried about her sister getting hurt.
But Liu Shile was a decisive person, so after saying that, she waved and left quickly.
Liu Shihua only felt a blur before her eyes, and her sister's figure vanished without a trace.
He couldn't help but rub his eyes, only to find that there was no one beside him.
My sister's speed is frightening!
However, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
My sister is so fast, she should be able to catch up with those people, right?
With that in mind, he casually found a place to sit down and wait for his sister to come back.
He was worried that if he went too far, his sister wouldn't be able to find him.
A short while later, a figure appeared in front of him.
He looked up happily, about to call out to his sister, when suddenly everything went black, and he was plunged into darkness...
