"That's not convenient to disclose. You don't have to tell me. I can actually check it myself, but I'm definitely not someone sent by the base you mentioned."
The boss breathed a sigh of relief. "Forget it. You don't seem like a bad person, and you're still worried about that old lady. Let me tell you, that old lady's son used to be the patrol captain of the water dungeon. A few days ago, he was tricked into smuggling and bought a zombie-mutated woman. He took her home to raise her. After he was caught, he was taken away. It's probably been three or four days, and he hasn't come back yet. He's probably in danger."
A place like a water dungeon is one where you can enter but not exit.
Entering the prison is equivalent to being half dead. Even if you can really get out, you will be no different from a cripple.
Pei Xiqing asked quietly: "What happened a few days ago?"
"A high-ranking official has arrived from headquarters. Do you know what's going on?"
"I know."
"It rained a lot at the base the past few days, and the bloodstains on the ground have almost been washed away. If you had come here two days earlier, you might have seen horrifying bloodstains on the street." The boss said with a look of fear, "A few nights ago, all the officers and cadres at the base were completely replaced. When I say replacement, I mean a real replacement."
"You mean they're dead?"
"If only I could die," the boss said, lowering his voice. "They were tortured beyond recognition. I didn't see it at the time, but my friend said he did. I haven't slept since then, and I have nightmares day and night. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. The families of those officials have even been looking for them, and they all returned in shock."
"That night, they heard that they were planning something and wanted to attack someone. However, Congqi was misled by Congqi. He was arrested before he even started to implement the plan. You can imagine what happened to him..."
Pei Xiqing wondered if it was the same people who were standing outside the office and talking a few days ago.
She was just distracted when the boss quickly said, "Here they come! The guys from the base are here on patrol. Don't tell them what I just said to you. And that old lady Wang next door, if you really can't help her, go check on her. She's old and it's really not easy for her."
The old lady had been missing for a few days, and no one knew how to get her son out. If she couldn't, her husband might have gone mad and beaten her to death.
He couldn't even protect himself, and the girl in front of him was the only one who cared about the old lady in the past few days. If he could save the youngest, he would be considered to have done a good deed.
If you can't save me...you can only leave it to fate.
After saying that, the boss packed up the rest of the stall and hurriedly pushed the cart away.
Many vendors and shops nearby closed their doors when they saw the patrol team from the base coming.
Pei Xiqing quickly pulled up his hat and took Xiaobai's hand to blend into the crowd.
The patrol came over and took a look around, then started searching again for some reason, and I don't know what they were looking for.
She saw it all and ran away.
The patrol leader noticed someone sneaking away in the corner and stopped his men from chasing after them: "Don't worry about it."
The subordinate scratched his head: "Why?"
"Forgot what Brother Ying said?"
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot. He said to ignore a woman walking a dressed husky on the road."
The officer nodded: "Isn't the dog next to that woman just an idiot in clothes?"
Pei Xiqing went all the way home and put the vegetables and meat into the kitchen.
It's almost dark now.
She was thinking about the old lady's feelings in her heart.
Cooking speed is a bit slow.
It wasn't until I heard the door open that I realized, "Ah, Brother Duan, I haven't done it yet. Why are you back so early today..."
She was about to start cooking the second dish when the man pushed the door open, unbuttoned his cuffs, and began to take over the dish she had half-finished. "It's okay. I came home so early yesterday just to take charge of the kitchen. I didn't expect you to steal my place."
Pei Xiqing washed her hands and fed him a bite of the braised pork ribs she had just made. "Then I won't have the chance to show off my excellent cooking skills."
Duan Xiaolin bit the piece of pork ribs and said, "It looks very good."
"What's your score?"
"very."
Pei Xiqing smiled and said, "Then I'll leave the rest to you."
The man began to cook with skillful movements.
Pei Xiqing leaned against the refrigerator and heard the man casually ask, "Where is Tianzhu?"
"I'm shopping."
"What did you buy?"
"It's for girls," she said. "Sanitary napkin."
Duan Xiaolin paused, "When did your period start this month?"
"Oh my god, I got it after I came back."
He turned around and asked, "Do you feel okay?"
"It's okay." She said, "That's not the point. The point is that I want to tell you something."
"you say."
Pei Xiqing recounted the old lady's situation to him, skipping the boss in the middle and tentatively asking, "I can't control her son's situation, nor do I want to, but I heard her husband treats her poorly. I'm worried something might happen to her, so I've thought about going to see her."
Duan Xiaolin said calmly: "Hey, I'll arrange it."
Pei Xiqing narrowed her eyes, "Really?"
"It's not a big deal. She's probably injured. You can accompany her to the hospital and check in at the churches around the hospital."
Pei Xiqing: "Really? Then I will respectfully obey your command."
Duan Xiaolin prepared the last dish, then picked her up by the waist and placed her on the counter next to him. He asked casually, "I've never experienced this before, my girlfriend being on her period. Would you like to teach me what to do?"
