"We'll take these cans over later. What about the street office... the old lady sitting on the doorstep..."
"Let's just go and get close to them with canned food!"
"Anning Town is a small town near the mountains. I guess there aren't many people going back and forth every day..."
"If there were suddenly a few new faces in town, I think no one would know them better than them..."
He Yi looked at Song Ning with a look of confidence, "Last night, we were just around the same time as the person who attacked Liu An and the others..."
"He didn't know that Liu An was standing behind us, and we discovered it so quickly, so he probably wouldn't have left Anning Town overnight..."
"Since we won't be traveling overnight, we'll naturally have breakfast in the morning!"
"So, we still have time..."
Song Ning immediately gave He Yi a thumbs up. What an unexpected thing!
This kid has a pretty smart brain!
"Since there's no problem, let's hurry up!"
Hu Shulan proudly puffed out her chest and said, "Let's go!"
Although He Yi's method takes quite some time, it is very effective!
Especially in this special era, young people have not yet gone out to work, and the neighbors living on the left are all acquaintances.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you, let alone bringing a can to your door!
Canned food was still a rarity in that era. People could only eat it during festivals and when visiting relatives and friends.
Now just ask and answer a few questions and a big bottle of canned food will be served to you immediately!
There is such a good thing in this world?!
Soon, the news that someone was giving out canned food for free spread from one person to ten and from ten to a hundred.
Song Ning and the others were immediately surrounded.
"Don't worry, everyone! We have them all! Don't crowd..."
He Yi's voice was almost hoarse, but the crowd kept rushing forward, almost about to take over their cans!
Bang!
Hu Shulan stepped on the can and shouted at the crowd in a domineering manner: "If you push any further, no one will be able to take it!"
There was a hint of magic in her voice, so no matter how lively the scene was, everyone present heard what Hu Shulan said.
The crowd suddenly quieted down and lined up obediently according to He Yi's request.
"Let me ask first, is there anyone here who has just arrived in the land?"
He Yi pressed his hands together, "Everyone can look at each other..."
"No...these are all from our neighbors! Hurry up and distribute the canned food!"
"Yes, yes! We are all old neighbors..."
A few people in the crowd answered He Yi's question.
"That's good!"
He Yi picked up a can and asked, "First question, were there any suspicious people near the orphanage yesterday?"
"Whoever answers this question gets the can!"
"Yes! I saw it!"
A burly old man, waving a palm-leaf fan, raised his hand first.
"In the evening, a man dressed in black walked around the orphanage several times..."
"That person looked unfamiliar. I even took a few glances at him to make sure he wasn't from our side!"
The old man was very sure about what he said, and Song Ning nodded imperceptibly.
He was not lying. It must be the man in black who captured Liu An and the others.
"Here's the can for you! That's all right!"
He Yi immediately handed the can in his hand to the old man.
"See! We have cans for real!"
"So as long as you tell us what you know, you will certainly get a share of the canned goods!"
He Yi patted the can box and spoke loudly.
"The first question is, who knows where the man in black lives?"
"this…"
Everyone present looked at each other in confusion. They really didn’t know the answer to this question!
There aren't any strangers around their house!
Where could he live?
If he wasn't staying at a relative's house, then he must be staying at a guesthouse!
Everyone present turned their attention to an old lady with flowery hair.
The old lady raised her eyelids and said, "Why are you looking at me? My daughter said that no one came into the guesthouse all day yesterday..."
"There's only a little girl who moved in the day before yesterday. How would I know where that man in black went?"
Little girl?
These three words rolled around in Song Ning's mind, but in the end, they didn't cause any ripples.
That massive formation at the orphanage doesn't look like something a little girl could have accomplished...
"I know…"
A small hand was raised high in the crowd, and a little boy jumped out.
"Last night when I was getting ready for bed, I heard a burst of singing coming from the City God Temple..."
"The City God Temple has been abandoned for years. Doesn't the sudden sound of singing in the middle of the night indicate something is wrong?"
"The man in black must be hiding inside..."
"Why is it the man in black? It could also be a ghost!"
Some people in the crowd deliberately opposed the young man and made sarcastic remarks about him.
"The teacher said we should believe in science and stop believing in superstitions!"
The young man retorted unconvincedly, "Improve your ideological awareness..."
"It seems that there is something strange about this City God Temple..."
Song Ning tapped her fingers on the can box, "Maybe we can find something..."
"I'll go first..."
Hu Shulan turned around and was about to disappear, but Song Ning threw a talisman and nailed her to the spot.
"What are you doing?!"
Hu Shulan immediately glared at Song Ning, wanting to fight!
"Grandma..."
Before Song Ning could say anything, He Yi called out Hu Shulan.
He Yi stuffed a can of food into the boy's hand and turned to look at his wife Hu Shulan with a tired heart.
"I'm on Song Ning's side this time..."
"You little bastard! You've grown wings, haven't you?! I..."
He Yi's words made Hu Shulan so angry that she fell backwards. She rolled up her sleeves and was about to beat the heartless boy.
"Grandma, don't you see where we are? Can you just do whatever you want?"
He Yi said as he took out a few more cans of food and handed them to the people present.
They couldn't finish so many cans, so they might as well share them with other people present!
Hu Shulan's anger froze, and her face immediately became embarrassed.
She...didn't she forget...
"You hand out canned food here, and we'll go over first..."
Song Ning tore off the yellow talisman on Hu Shulan's back and pulled Hu Shulan out of the alley.
"Can I get free canned food here?"
A low and hoarse male voice sounded in He Yi's ears. He Yi subconsciously looked up, and when he saw the man in front of him clearly, He Yi's pupils suddenly shrank.
Men in Black…
The City God Temple was not far from here, so within a few minutes, the two of them were standing at the door of the City God Temple.
"Is there really anyone who lives in a dilapidated temple these days?"
Hu Shulan raised her beautiful eyes slightly, looked at the dilapidated wooden door in front of her, and said in disbelief.
"Is there any way to live here?"
"I definitely can't live here!"
Song Ning covered her mouth and nose with her hands and waved away the dust with great disgust, "Auntie Lan...how about I wait for you outside?"
“You wish!”
Hu Shulan grabbed Song Ning's arm, lifted her long, beautiful legs, and kicked down. The shaky wooden door immediately fell backwards.
"I just went through an abandoned hospital yesterday. You should also go through this abandoned City God Temple..."
Song Ning's eyes almost rolled up to the sky, "Please! It was you who got lost, okay..."
"I'd rather die than go in there!"
Song Ning said as he pulled out a whip and swung it against the pillar, no more!
