Chapter 184: No Goodbye (23)
We had already set out on time, and we had just wasted so much time. Now that it was almost dark, there was naturally no need to set out again.
After entering the space, Lan Jin said, "Let's sleep in the space, study the route, and then leave tomorrow."
No one objected to this proposal. After all, they had their own rules and would never walk on the road at night.
Ling Jiang, who had been crying, seemed to be energized. She shook off her fatigue and completely recovered to her original state. She was very professional in studying the route. Lao Gao beside her didn't even have a chance to interrupt. The route to the next base was determined.
But it’s great that Ling Jiang can recover. If you don’t want to interrupt, then don’t interrupt. Lao Gao really doesn’t care.
As for the next base, whether it is necessary to go there really depends on the situation along the way.
…
They lived comfortably in the space, but they never expected that before they went out, someone had already ambushed them on the road they had to pass.
Luo Ge’s map was indeed real, but it was also true that the abundance of supplies in the hands of the four of them attracted their attention.
Knowing that these four people were leaving today, how could Brother Luo let them go just like that?
In addition, he had already heard that these people came on ice scooters, which were obviously easier to ambush than cars.
But when they hurried out, they waited and waited, but there was no sign of him.
Luo Ge was puzzled. "That's not right. He said he was leaving today. If we follow the route he said, we should take this road."
The one he was referring to was Lao Gao. Lao Gao vaguely revealed that the place they were going to was the base of the neighboring city. And looking at the map, didn't they just turn from this side?
The younger brother beside him said, "I watched them leave the base. They must have left the base, but..."
Seeing that the younger brother was hesitant to speak, Luo Ge asked, "But what? Come on, tell me."
These people seem to know Team Shi?
Time team?
Luo Ge asked, "Is it the supply search team, the captain of the first team, Team Shi?"
"Yes, I saw them chatting for quite a while on the first floor of the dormitory lobby. I guess they are quite familiar with each other."
But regardless of whether we are familiar with each other or not, the person has left, and as for the person, this is the key point.
The younger brother said, "I'm sure they left. They were wearing skates and dragging a sled. There were four of them. None of us have that equipment, so it's impossible to mistake them. I followed them out, so they should have passed before me."
If that’s the case, what about that person?
Luo Ge slapped the other two brothers on the head. "Where's the person? If you ask me, who should I ask? I just followed you here. I asked you to guard here ahead of time. Did you guys go out to play and didn't even notice that someone escaped?"
The two younger brothers nervously assured him, "Brother Luo, it's true. We've been guarding the area well. There are absolutely no wild enemies. We've been guarding it since morning, and apart from the team's car coming back, we haven't seen a single person since then."
Luo Ge naturally didn't want to give up since he didn't see anyone. However, he waited from dusk till dark, and even though he was almost frozen into a popsicle, he still didn't see any of them. Luo Ge tui to the ground and said, "Damn it, where did they go? Where are they?"
I've been waiting for so long and haven't seen anyone. There's no point in waiting any longer.
After he reluctantly returned to the base with a few of his brothers, he happened to meet Lao Shi who was patrolling at the door. Luo Ge immediately frowned and looked unhappy, but he couldn't ask Lao Shi what the situation was. Then, he left without saying anything.
Luo Ge had just left when the little girl they had met before came to Lao Shi again. She hugged Lao Shi's arm and asked happily, "Brother Shi, it's time to eat, let's go."
When Lao Shi saw the little girl, his frown immediately relaxed. After nodding, the two of them went to the cafeteria.
But before leaving, he looked outside the base again.
Maybe after this separation, we will never meet again in this life.
…
Ling Jiang's mood adjusted incredibly quickly. While sorting through the supplies brought in from the supermarket, Lan Jin couldn't help but whisper, "No, you're in such a good mood. If I hadn't seen what happened just now, I would have thought we hadn't encountered... him."
Ling Jiang rolled her eyes and said, "Little sister, I'm three years older than you. Even if it weren't for this, I'm already past the age of crying. I'm 36. Do I really have to commit suicide over a breakup? I'm not crying because I can't let go of this relationship, but because I've been cheated on. I've never been cheated on before. It's shameful."
"Ah, I thought you couldn't let go of this relationship." She was actually crying because she was cuckolded. This was really hard for her to understand. "When I was cheated on... Oh, I only remember planning for property."
This is true. Lan Jin's mind and eyes were full of money at that time. Her main purpose was to recover her losses. Her secondary purpose was to continue to win Ren Xing's sympathy and let him give up his share of the property. Otherwise, she would just cheat on him. How could she possibly let him leave the house with nothing?
She was a little sad in her previous life, but in this life, she had no other thoughts except wanting to get rid of these people.
But the situation is different after all.
"It's understandable that you're getting money for the sake of your children. Besides, a large portion of this money already belongs to you." Ling Jiang paused, then continued, "But I'm different. We grew up together and have always been good friends, but we've never thought of developing a romantic relationship. Otherwise, we wouldn't have gotten together at this age. We were both already quite old at the time, and both of us were single. After a heart-to-heart talk, I also thought the other person was not bad, so we decided to make do with each other. But before we actually got together, I told him that if he met his true love, we should tell him directly when we broke up. I can't stand being cuckolded, but who knew he would still wear that hat."
After saying that, Minato said, "Actually, I expected that we wouldn't end up together. After all... although we grew up together, our social statuses are too different."
This identity brought up Ling Jiang's previous job again. After Ling Jiang explained it in detail, Lan Jin realized that what boxing gym, what coach, Ling Jiang was just an underground boxer. She and Lao Gao borrowed that place because it was empty. Not only that, the two of them had done a lot of... not very legal things before. Lao Shi was a serious policeman. The two of them could be together, but it was not certain whether they could go on.
At this moment, Lan Jin finally understood how complicated Ling Jiang's background was.
