Thanks for subscribing to Jinjiang Literature City's official version~ Cheng Ge gets the most, but unfortunately has no charm, and the people below him are probably already full of grievances.

  Zhong Hui'er was among them, and merely played the role of a fire that rapidly ignited the underlying contradictions.

  Lu Ge was teased into being lively and witty, his words and actions revealing a refusal to be controlled. Cheng Ge had a violent temper, and the two of them clashed in an instant, as if it were predestined.

  Dà Guì and Lǎo Xiāng ā Xī tried to separate the two people who were fighting, but they didn't have enough strength and ended up getting tangled together and being pulled into the fight. Liú Měi Juān rushed out wearing slippers, shouting hysterically.

  Jiang Xi covered her stomach and rushed out, running straight to the toilet. As expected, no one paid attention to her - or rather, even if they did notice, they wouldn't have thought much of it.

  The main room was connected to the only exit, and all the windows in the house were sealed from the inside. Even a mouse couldn't escape on a normal day. The five adults blocked the only exit, so where could this big living person escape to?

  Jiang Xi didn't want to run away either.

  The toilet is located at the corner of the stairs, where the stairs and the hall form a triangle, and the toilet is in the shadow of this triangle, coincidentally in the blind spot of everyone's line of sight.

  Jiang Xi calculated the time in her mind and rushed up the stairs in a flash.

  She carried her shoes and climbed up barefoot, like a cat, without making any sound.

  Jiang Xi had reserved three minutes for herself, forty seconds to go up and down the stairs, and two minutes and twenty seconds to find what she wanted - if the infighting downstairs ended early, Zhong Hui'er would also think of a way to come out and help her drag out time.

  Even in occasional "communication" and "gossip" with Da Gui, Jiang Xi had already extracted the information he wanted.

  A four-boy-and-one-girl dormitory, Da Gui and fellow villagers Ah Xi and Lu Ge all live on the first floor, while Cheng Ge and female classmate Pai Hua Zi live on the second floor. Cheng Ge's room is the first room to the left after turning upstairs on the second floor.

  Thirty seconds passed.

  Jiang Xi rushed into the first room on the left in the expected time, a rural earth building, not even a layer of white putty was applied, and the wall surface exposed large pieces of weathered red bricks.

  Against the wall, a simple spring bed with a rolled-up bamboo mat, a half-drunk glass of water on the bedside table, and a black waist pack with its zipper open, revealing a dozen red knots.

  Jiang Xi's gaze slid past indifferently: That wasn't what she was looking for.

  Forty seconds.

  Next to the door, an old-fashioned five-drawer dresser was standing there. Jiang Xi stretched out his hand and pulled it open. Inside, there were five or six lightweight short-sleeved shirts and a leather jacket, both casual and formal wear. Jiang Xi glanced over them, his gaze falling on the bottom drawer of the dresser.

  The drawer fell off the lock and Jiang Xi couldn't pull it open.

  Fifty seconds.

  Jiang Xi's eyebrows and eyes were calm and quiet, it was a critical moment, but she didn't show any anxiety, her mind was constantly filtering various information.

  Human traffickers usually don't stay in one place for too long, to ensure safety, the entire den is constantly on the move. And the only car key of this den is kept by the leader Cheng Ge.

  In order to maintain his own captain's authority, the most important fixed asset of the Kui Zi Wo is Cheng Ge, who is absolutely unwilling to lend a hand to others - this is also consistent with the news that Jiang Xi has learned from Da Gui.

  Zhong Hui'er was pulled by Cheng Lu and the others to play a round of "double flying" half an hour ago, and also rubbed off the fire between the two. According to her, the car key was not on Brother Cheng's body at that time.

  So Jiang Xi was certain that the car key must be in Cheng Ge's room, or to say, it was in this five-drawer cabinet with a lock. After all, this earthen house should have been rented from villagers, and other places were not safe.

  Sixty seconds.

  The room is simple and crude, the furniture is plain, everything is clear at a glance.

  Jiang Xi turned over her waist bag, pillow and under the bed, except for a stack of festive red tickets, she almost got nothing:

  Eighty seconds have passed.

  The noise downstairs gradually subsided, and Jiang Xi knew that she didn't have much time left.

  She stood in front of the five-drawer dresser again, and when her gaze swept over a row of neatly hung clothes, she suddenly let out a "huh".

  It's just September, only a few days after the start of school, and it's still scorching hot. Everyone is wearing light summer clothes, but there's a leather jacket hanging in the closet - it's really out of place.

  This leather jacket should be Cheng Ge's treasured item - and people generally have a habit, they like to put their treasured items together, so that it looks good and feels right.

  Jiang Xi reached into his pocket and found a small key in the inner pocket of his wallet. He used this key to unlock the drawer, where he found the car keys. To his surprise, he also found a folded map of Guilin that had been crumpled up like a piece of tofu.

  One hundred seconds.

  Jiang Xi "rattled" down the stairs, fully loaded on her way back.

  Cheng Ge and Lu Ge were still at the bottom of the building, pointing at each other's noses and cursing. Da Gui and Lao Xiang, one on each side, pulled them apart to prevent them from getting close, their bodies covered in scratches and bruises.

  Jiang Xi went to the toilet with a serious and proper demeanor, flushing and washing his hands, before walking cautiously towards the east wing of the house with his head hung low, looking very honest.

  "Wait."

  Just as Jiang Xi was two or three meters away from the door, a voice stopped her. The woman with the flower-patterned slippers raised her thin eyelids and lifted her chin slightly towards her:

  "What's going on?"

  Jiang Xi's face turned pale, his legs trembling like a sieve, and he stuttered: "I, I have stomach pain, going to the toilet." He looked quite timid.

  She has recently established a very successful image of being honest and well-behaved, but before going out, she deliberately makes herself look disheveled and unkempt, making it impossible for anyone to take a second glance at her. So even if the flower girl doesn't like this little girl's delicate appearance, she didn't suspect anything, just thinking about making things difficult for her.

  "Put out your hand."

  Jiang Xi stretched out his left hand with a quiver, and Liu Mei Juan slapped it open with a "slap": "Right hand."

  She slowly stretched out her right hand, both hands washed white and clean. Liu Mei Juan circled around her, reached out to touch Jiang Xi's shoulder, back, waist, and buttocks, and Jiang Xi's heart almost jumped into her throat:

  "Thud, thud——"

  Cheng Ge and Lu Ge also stopped quarreling, the lewd and lustful gaze circled around the girl's youthful and alluring figure, finally lingering on her curvaceous waist and hips, unable to be shaken off.

  Jiang Xi sighed:

  I am on the chopping board, and I am the fish to be sliced.

  "Mei Juan sister, everyone has to go out and discuss business tomorrow. You've worked hard with Cheng Ge and Lu Ge today, why don't I and Ah Xi take the night shift instead?"

  Dàguì spoke up and saved her.

  Jiang Xi lowered her head, and the woman finally let her go, allowing her to push open the door. As she passed by Cheng Ge and Lu Ge, she gave them a sideways glance: "Don't look, this is a clean product, can't let you guys ruin it, or it won't be worth selling."

  "Playing with fire? Isn't there still one inside? Do you want me to call it out and play together?"

  Cheng Ge and Lu Ge exchanged a glance, and only then did Lu Ge feel a little scared. He awkwardly waved his hand: "Forget it, forget it, you play with Wu Ge instead. I've had too much horse urine today, can't handle it."

  Saying so, she turned around and returned to her room with a huff.

  Cheng Ge had just gotten angry and hadn't calmed down yet, when he was provoked again by the high school girl's greenness, and actually pushed open the door to wake up Zhong Hui'er who was leaning against the wall sleeping, causing a big commotion.

  In the darkness, Jiang Xi lay on his back, stretching himself out flat and quietly listening to the sound of Cheng Ge taking Zhong Hui'er out.

  "Jiang sister, is that person calling out Zhong sister to hit her?"

  Most of the children seemed to understand but didn't really get it.

  The boy beside the river stopped breathing, and Sun Ting was also unusually silent, her fingers clenched into fists and digging into her palms, causing a sharp pain like needles in her hands. She couldn't tell whether it was sympathy or fear that had taken hold of her.

  Recently, I've been thinking about going back home less often.

  Jiang Xi patted her comfortingly and didn't make a sound, after all. Sun Ting was too young, and she couldn't keep things on her face. It would be better to inform her until the last minute.

  Zhong Hui returned to her room when night had already fallen.

  Her hands and feet were numb, she had eaten a bowl of porridge mixed with anesthetic, and was ground down for nearly an hour. When she entered the door, she felt that almost all her bones were not her own, pain and fatigue swept over her like a tidal wave.

  Zhong Hui'er couldn't help but scold the culprit in her mind.

  If this doesn't work out, just wait and see how she'll deal with her own mess.

  Thinking viciously, she sat down against the wall and touched a warm hand. Jiang Xi was calmly sitting in her position, handing over a ladle of clear water: "Can you still hold on?"

  Zhong Hui'er understood Jiang Xi's implied meaning. She gritted her teeth and said in a rough tone, "Do you think I'm afraid of you?!"

  Jiang Xi was already accustomed to her ugly appearance and didn't think much of it. She simply stretched out her hand and continued to pass the ladle forward, saying "Drink some water."

  When doing that kind of thing, Cheng Ge wouldn't give her water to drink. Zhong Hui'er was extremely thirsty and didn't refuse Jiang Xi's kindness, subconsciously reaching out to take it and starting to drink.

  As soon as the water entered her stomach, Zhong Hui'er felt that she had become much lighter, and even her weak legs seemed to have gained some strength.

  She wasn't one to overthink things anyway, and since she was really thirsty earlier, she asked another question that had been on her mind: "Did you get the thing?"

  "It's in my hands now."

  Jiang Xi took the car key and map, then considered all kinds of situations that might arise when returning to the room. To be on the safe side, he didn't bring them with him and instead hid them in a secure location first, planning to retrieve them later when there was an opportunity.

  "When will we set off?"

  "Wait."

  Jiangxi Town was calm and composed, infected by her tranquility, Zhong Hui'er also closed her eyes to meditate.

  "What's going on outside? Is it just the usual expensive stuff?"

  "Yes, his fellow villager named Ah Xi is not around."

  Jiang Xi nodded, as expected.

  That Ah Xi is a glutton and lazy, every time she keeps watch for a while, she will sneak back to her room to sleep, and then hurry over in a pretentious manner when others are not awake. Coincidentally, the big nobleman is honest and won't report - of course, this situation is beneficial to them.

  "Did you guess that Da Gui and A Xi would be on night watch today?"

  Zhong Hui'er asked suspiciously, yesterday was also Da Gui's group on night watch, it should have been Cheng Lu's turn.

  According to Jiang Xi's original temperament, he wouldn't have bothered to explain much. But thinking of the importance of the matter, he added a few more patient words: "Cheng Lu and the two had a big fight, it was when they were looking at each other with disgust, how could they keep watch together? Others also wouldn't feel at ease leaving these two together, in case they started fighting again. The best solution would be for them to either split up and take turns keeping watch or temporarily swap out with Da Gui's group."

  "Besides, Da Gui is a kind old man and must have thought that it's better to have fewer troubles than more, so he took on the night watch himself."

  "What's wrong with your head?"

  Zhong Hui'er exclaimed, and Jiang Xi heard a long-awaited "ding dong" in his mind.

  "Congratulations, your popularity has increased by one point."

  Xiao Ling poured a basin of cold water at the right time: "It's already past midnight, deduct one point, and the popularity value is 44."

  Drop your pants and fart.

  Jiang Xi pretended he didn't see anything and patted his butt before standing up: "Let's go, it's about time."

  Jiang Xi

  "How old?"

  Twenty-eight.

  In a small interrogation room, Yan Li flipped through the files in his hand and asked routine questions without any emotion. Xiao Liu from the new department next to him bowed his head and wrote hastily.

  Across the interrogation table was a woman with a dull and lifeless complexion, her face sallow and prematurely wrinkled at the corners of her eyes. She wore a tattered and patched cotton-padded jacket that seemed to have been worn for seven or eight years, yet she still looked like she had already entered the twilight years of her life despite being in her prime.

  The prisoners who came here were either scolding or crying for mercy, but this woman kept her head down from start to finish and occasionally nodded or shook her head in response, quietly cooperating with the interrogation.

  Yan Li didn't mind either.

  As the second-in-command of Gui City's Criminal Police Brigade, he handles thousands or even tens of thousands of cases every year. His heart has long been tempered into a hard, stinky stone that is not easily shaken.

  What's more, he is a murderer who killed six people in one family.

  Yan Li thought of the Mid-Autumn Festival a year ago, when he received the report and rushed to the scene, the six charred bodies pulled out from the ruins were unrecognizable.

  This is one of the rare major criminal cases in recent years.

  But thinking of the customs in Heyang County, I feel that such a thing would happen sooner or later. Especially in the southeast corner of Sangjiadang, nestled in the mountains, they rarely interact with the outside world and are still as poor as they were before liberation, with every household relying on their daughters-in-law to make a living.

  After the incident, the men of Sangjiadang stood up indignantly and said that this wife was a born white-eyed wolf who had run away five or six times. Even after being beaten by Quangen and having her legs broken, she still ran out with the goods. She's just a woman who can't be kept at home. A few gossiping women angrily said that this daughter-in-law was a fox spirit who loved to seduce men into bed. They said it was only a matter of time before something happened, and now everyone has become a wise guy after the fact.

  A one-legged woman was wanted nationwide for a year, and somehow managed to conceal herself, hiding for a whole year until she surrendered today - making the entire Gui City police station almost a laughing stock in the industry.

  "After fleeing for almost a year, why did you suddenly think of surrendering?"

  Jiang Xi looked up at him with a glance.

  Yan Li suddenly realized that the woman had a pair of sparkling eyes, even with a large scar under her eye, and even if the sparkle was just a stagnant pool of water, it still gave off an aura of having once been captivating, making people unable to help but pause for a moment.
