“…You guys are leaving too.”
Sister Liu held Ren Ziling's hand tightly and reluctantly.
Zi Ling's mother said helplessly: "We have been delayed for two days. Now the road is clear. If we don't go back, we will have a hard time explaining to the company."
"That's right...work is more important." Sister Liu nodded, "Don't leave so quickly, I'll get you some local specialties, all dried goods from our own garden...wait for me!"
"Okay, okay, give me more cured fish, cured meat, cured duck, etc." Zi Ling smiled, "I have a pig-like creature at home. If there are fewer, it won't be enough to eat."
The extreme pulling that rural aunties do before parting will obviously not happen to her.
Soon, Sister Liu came back with a big bag full of dry goods.
"Aren't you going to say hello to the dean before you leave?"
"I've said hello, but she can't come down and can't walk." Zi Ling's mother shook her head.
Sister Liu couldn't help but roll her eyes. "How can someone at this age who can pedal a tricycle still not get off? I think she can't get off because she's embarrassed... Never mind, just ignore her. Remember to come back often!"
"I know." Zi Ling's mother replied softly.
……
"I heard that you are going back to [Qilin City]?"
Captain Gao Liang appeared in front of the door of the welfare home... There were quite a few people going into the mountains to search for Wu Jiabang, so a temporary command center needed to be built, so they borrowed a piece of vacant land outside the welfare home.
We used a set of tents and it was set up in a short time.
"Yes, we have been delayed two or three days from the original plan." Luo Qiu nodded.
"Captain Gao, you are here too!" Zi Ling's mother came over carrying two big bags.
Seeing this, the maid and Bai Zhi hurried forward and put the bags into the car one by one.
Zi Ling's mother looked at Gao Liang and said, "Captain Gao, is there any news about Wu Jiabang? I don't know if he will come back again... He can still control the mandrills. I am a little worried about the children in the welfare home..."
"Don't worry, we will always have people watching over this place." Gao Liang said seriously, "Especially the director. Considering that she was kidnapped by Wu Jiabang once before, we will focus on sending people to protect her and try not to affect the daily operation of the welfare home."
There are more than 60 children here... It would have been fine if nothing had happened before, but now that something has happened, the county naturally pays special attention to it.
Seeing this, Zi Ling's mother felt relieved.
She didn't have much to say next. After all, it was not her territory and the county law enforcement had already taken action. She just had to wait for the results.
……
“I didn’t expect so many things to happen.”
In the car, Zi Ling's mother leaned out of the window and looked at this building full of memories... She even deliberately glanced at the small building of the dean's office.
Obviously, it is impossible for the old woman to stand at the window and look out.
Zi Ling's mother couldn't help but smile and murmured, "I'm leaving... Mom."
"...Sister, what did you just say?"
Li Zi was looking through the bag of dried farm goods, and seventeen or eighteen ways of cooking them appeared in her mind.
"Nothing...nothing." Zi Ling's mother shook her head and stretched, "It's just a pity. We clearly agreed to come here for a short trip, but we ended up being delayed for a few days and didn't have much fun."
The maid smiled and said, "Why don't you go to my hotel? The hotel's soft furnishings are almost ready during this period... If we go back now, it should be ready in the afternoon."
"Will it be too troublesome?" Zi Ling's mother looked hesitant.
The maid said something very down-to-earth, "It's our own place, there's nothing to bother about."
Zi Ling's mother loved to hear this, and she slapped her thigh, and the itinerary was confirmed.
……
It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at the newly renovated hotel club... Looking at the brand new club, Zi Ling's mother almost dropped her jaw.
"It feels like... it didn't take that long the last time I came here. Isn't that too efficient?"
"Maybe this is what they call money power?" Li Zi thought.
Zi Ling's mother looked up and saw the sign that had been rebuilt but not changed. "Why not change the name of the hotel?"
The maid said calmly, "I felt the previous name was good, so I didn't change it."
"Is that so..." Zi Ling's mother thought thoughtfully.
The maid said softly, "After the renovation, some new items have been added. You can try them out. Please remember to give me a fair review later."
"Then I won't be polite!" Zi Ling's mother took a deep breath, and without saying a word, she rushed to the women's SPA center.
The maid also instructed the people in the club at this time: "Arrange a full body deep care program for Miss Ren... Miss Lizi, do you want to join us?"
"Ah?" Li Zi blinked, thought for a moment and said, "No, I'm a little sleepy. Can you arrange a room for me so I can sleep for a while?"
"of course."
"I want a single room, is that ok..." Li Zi said hesitantly, "I haven't slept well these past few days, so I want to sleep alone... If I miss dinner, don't worry about me. If I'm hungry, I'll call room service. I think I can sleep until tomorrow morning!"
The maid lady called a maid from the club and said, "Take Miss Lizi to our luxury single suite."
……
……
"…Currently, the [Gate] has been initially constructed. Once Mr. Wen has completed the preparations, it can be officially opened."
Inside the office of the club, Boss Luo sat in the big chair and glanced at the documents in front of him.
In fact, Boss Luo is also looking forward to the official opening of this hotel... The business model of the maid lady is also very simple, that is, the membership system.
Different levels of service are provided according to different levels of membership... Non-members are not allowed to enter.
Of course, except Zi Ling’s mother.
In fact, she didn't even need a membership card, she could just scan her face... All the waiters and maids who were transformed by the Prayers in the entire hotel club were immediately fed with the life breath of Zi Ling's mother.
"In Shenzhou, any business that wants to open will choose an auspicious day." Boss Luo was in a good mood, so he smiled and said, "Do you think we should also choose an auspicious time to open the business?"
The maid whispered, "Considering that Miss Ren knows about the existence of the hotel, she will probably be confused if we don't hold an opening ceremony."
"It's up to you." Boss Luo nodded.
At this time, a [Petitioner] knocked on the door... After receiving permission, he pushed the door open respectfully.
This is a career-oriented woman in her thirties who is dressed very professionally and has an outstanding appearance.
All the [Petitioners] were very outstanding people in their lifetime... This [Petitioner], who once had excellent hotel management experience, was chosen by the maid and is currently serving as the deputy general manager of the hotel.
Boss Luo glanced at him casually. This deputy general manager who was chosen by the maid... looked a bit like the heroine in a certain movie called The Queen in Prada.
"Hathaway, is there something wrong?" the maid asked calmly.
The new deputy general manager of the hotel saluted Mr. Luo, then bowed to the maid, and then said seriously: "Miss Li Zi has left the hotel. According to the master's wishes, we did not stop her."
"Got it." The maid nodded, "Go ahead, just serve Miss Ren well. If Miss Ren asks, you know how to answer."
"Yes, I know what to do." Hathaway stroked her chest and bent down slightly, like a butler, "I'm leaving."
After that, Boss Luo…Luo Qiu said calmly: "Then, I'll go over there too."
The maid nodded...Someone has to stay here to accompany Zi Ling's mother.
……

"Captain... take a break first, water!"
Gao Liang, who had just completed a round of search, returned to the temporary command center with a few people... It should have been a winter day, but he was already sweating all over.
"Everyone is tired, let's take a rest first." Gao Liang sighed helplessly... Searching at night is more difficult, and people need to be replaced, otherwise the team searching during the day will not be able to hold on.
At this time, voices were heard outside the tent.
Gao Liang walked out of the tent in confusion, and saw the old director of the welfare home, who was walking towards him with several caregivers, carrying a large bucket.
"Old Dean, why did you come out? You are not feeling well, why don't you take more rest?"
"Captain Gao, you've worked hard. This is the sweet potato soup we made to comfort you." The dean instructed, "Susu, go and distribute it to the law enforcement comrades. It's so cold, they need to warm their bodies."
"Okay!" Sister Liu responded and started working with a smile.
"How can this be so embarrassing." Gao Liang shook his head. "No merit, no reward. Old Dean, please don't do this next time."
"It's okay." The dean breathed a sigh of relief. "Captain Gao, have you made any progress in your search?"
"No." Gao Liang sighed. "It rained heavily a few days ago, and the roads in the mountains are too difficult to walk on... There are several big mountains nearby, and hiding in them is like a fish entering the sea. It's too difficult."
"Take your time." The dean also sighed.
"By the way, Dean." Gao Liang suddenly asked, "Do you hope that we can find Wu Jiabang, or not?"
The dean couldn't help but frown and said, "Captain Gao, what do you mean by that? If you do something wrong, you should take responsibility. Although I am just an old woman from the countryside who has never been to school, I still understand this principle. Since you have found evidence that Ah Bang did something wrong, do I still have to side with him? If I side with him, how can I be fair to those children who have been harmed?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please don't be angry, I didn't mean any harm." Gao Liang said quickly, "Your health is more important, don't get angry, it was my fault, I promise I won't do it next time."
The dean walked away with a sullen face.
Gao Liang scratched his head, took a bowl of sweet soup, hid in the tent, and sat on the temporary office chair. "Xiao Yu, what is this document?"
He looked curiously at a file bag on the folding table.
"Document? What document?" Xiao Yu looked over subconsciously. "Hasn't this been placed here all along? It's not yours?"
Gao Liang frowned and casually opened the file bag... Suddenly a large stack of photos poured out of the bag and scattered all over the table!
"This is……"
Gao Liang picked up one at random and looked at it, his expression changed slightly instantly.
……
……
"…Pack up your things and go back to rest." The dean and the others were packing up their gifts. "School will resume tomorrow, and we still have to send the children to school. Everyone should go to bed early tonight."
"With old man Li gone, what should I do with my car tomorrow?"
"Let me do it." The dean sighed, "I also have a B1 driver's license, so I can do it."
"But your body..."
"Let's talk about it after we hire a driver." The dean shook his head. "I'm not too old to drive yet... Find another person to follow the car tomorrow, and stop by the job market on the way back."
"Director, I have something to say." Sister Liu came over, "I won't go back to the welfare home tonight. I haven't been home for a few days. I want to go back and take a look."
"You really should have gone back and taken a look earlier." The dean nodded.
Liu Susu's family is not doing well either. Her son and his fiancée girlfriend are working outside and are waiting to buy a house before getting married. The man in Liu Susu's family had a stroke a few years ago and almost died...but he is also paralyzed at home and needs someone to take care of him.
But I heard that the man in Liu Susu's family recovered well. From being completely paralyzed at the beginning, he can now barely get out of bed. It is a small miracle.
"Then I won't be busy for now. See you tomorrow." Liu Susu nodded, put down the things in her hands, and drove her electric scooter out of the welfare home.
Her home is in another village not far away, about six or seven kilometers away, not far.
……
……
"Who sent this document?"
In the tent command center, Gao Liang looked solemnly at the people who had been summoned - the county police station had formed a special team for this case, and those present at this time were all the key members.
However, after Gao Liang asked around, no one knew when the file bag was delivered or who sent it...it was as if it appeared out of thin air.
"Captain, should we first investigate what's in the file?"
The content of this document is so shocking... so much so that Gao Liang feels that once the content of the document is exposed, it will cause a huge public outcry, and may even cause a diplomatic incident!
"Yes, Lao Gao, this matter involves too many things. We can't cover it up at all..." Another old law enforcement officer in his forties hesitated and said, "Don't hesitate, report it to the Municipal Bureau!"
"This is the only way." Gao Liang slowly exhaled, "But we still have to look for Wu Jiabang! We have to find him as soon as possible!"
"How about this, we send more people tonight. We just applied for a drone, maybe it will be useful."
"There are a lot of animals in the mountains, and thermal imaging may not be accurate... but it's better than nothing."
After discussing with everyone for a while, the task force began to act again.
Gao Liang also began to organize the information at hand and think about his words...how to report this matter.
This matter involved not only a well-known local land developer, but also an investor from another island country.
Captain Gao looked at the contents of the document and still couldn't believe that people... could be so evil.
In order to obtain sufficient funds, the local land developer tried to please the financial sponsor, an island businessman, who had a little-known habit.
Child abuse.
"I never thought that there were so many people involved in the disappearance of children in the past few years... Damn it, how many children were killed?"
These documents and photos should have been secretly left behind by the local land developer, perhaps as a backup to protect himself, or as a bargaining chip to blackmail the island businessman... But I don't know how they were taken out, and mysteriously delivered to my hands.
According to the contents of the documents, the local land developer secretly had contact with several human traffickers at that time - he purchased [goods] from the traffickers and then sent them out. There were a total of seven such transactions.
What made Gao Liang even more unbelievable... or even shocked was that among these human traffickers, one of them was actually Wu Jiabang's father!
……
……
……
……
The mountain road is difficult to walk on at night... Difficult only for outsiders. For locals, if you are not afraid, the road is always easy to walk on.
In a shabby little thatched and wooden hut in the mountains, there was a faint light...a flickering candlelight.
This was built by someone unknown and has been around for a long time. In the past, it was used as a temporary overnight shelter for people who went up the mountain to hunt... At this moment, under the candlelight, a human figure could be vaguely seen floating.
A figure appeared on the path below the wooden house...After a while, the figure came to the door of the wooden house with a slight breath and knocked gently on the door.
squeak--!
In the candlelight, an old face slowly appeared in the crack of the door, and asked very carefully, "Why are you so late?"
"Let me in first!"
The person who came spoke in a very low voice... Liu Susu pushed the door open all of a sudden, forcing Old Man Li to take two steps back - it was a very embarrassing thing, Old Man Li was really not as strong as Liu Susu.
"Where are the people?" Sister Liu looked around quickly and asked with a gloomy face.
"In the back room, he's asleep." Old man Li sat down, smacking his lips as he smoked his pipe. "I gave him sleeping pills. He won't wake up. Don't worry."
"Why didn't you get rid of him?" Liu Susu glared at Old Man Li. "Do you know that if he doesn't die, we will be the ones to die?"
Old man Li remained silent and just smoked.
"I'll just smoke you to death!" Liu Susu snatched the cigarette away.
"Why are you so anxious? The law enforcement officer can't find this place now." Old Man Li was not angry. "I was just thinking about how to deal with this matter... By the way, the law enforcement officer said that the specimen he found in my room was not a human eye, but a pig eye. What's going on? Did you change it?"
"I didn't." Liu Susu frowned. "Why would I exchange for something like that? I took the eyes out from where you kept your things and exchanged them secretly... You old fool! Did you secretly use those human eyes yourself? Do you have any other recipe that you are hiding from me?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Old Man Li snorted coldly, "How can I hide this kind of thing from you... Something is wrong! How come it suddenly turned into a pig's eye?"
"What's wrong? I think you're just scared!" Liu Susu snorted coldly, "Why didn't you get scared when I killed people and bled them? No, I still have to kill this fool first!"
Old man Li couldn't help but frowned, "Liu Susu, how the hell did you become like this?"
"It's all your fault!" Sister Liu's face was full of ferocity. "Yes, it's all your fault... I was possessed by a demon, so I believed in your ghost! Old man Li, if I die, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"
Perhaps because he had really seen that kind of thing before, Old Man Li shuddered subconsciously.
"If it wasn't for the fact that the folk remedy you mentioned really worked and my man was able to stand up, I would have said anything..." As she spoke, Liu Susu covered her face and cried bitterly. She was not as ruthless as before. Her face turned pale and she hugged her arms tightly, shaking. "I have nightmares every night. I dream about those... coming to me!"
Old man Li's heart moved, "What's the situation with your man now?"
Sister Liu finally calmed down, and seemed to have regained a little hope. "Much better. I can get out of bed and take a few steps. But I still can't tell clearly. I should take a few more doses of [medicine]. But now..."
"Let's take it easy for now." Old man Li gritted his teeth and shook his head, "We can't take any risks now. The investigation outside is very intense."
"I'll kill the fool inside first!"
Sister Liu suddenly stood up, even took out a shark knife, with a cold look in her eyes... and pushed open the door of the inner room.
In the inner room, Ah Bangge was seen lying on a pile of hay, drooling and snuggling with the mandrill, sleeping soundly.
Seeing this, Old Man Li suddenly rushed over and grabbed Liu Susu's arm, "Don't be impulsive! Ah Bang is still useful... If you want to do this kind of thing again in the future, where can you find such a useful fool to help you!"
"I think you've really fallen in love!" Liu Susu pushed back, "Why! You're a cripple and can't have children, so you want to keep this idiot to look after you till the end of your life?"
"Say it again!" Old man Li's face suddenly turned grim. "Without me, your man can stand up! Say it again!!"
"You dare to hit me! I'm going to fight you!"
The two men wrestled and fell to the ground, and the fish-killing knife was hitting each other, which was extremely thrilling - but at this moment, the door of the cabin was suddenly blown open by a gust of cold wind!
Then I saw wisps of snow flying in from outside the door.
The candlelight swayed wildly in the cold wind.
"Oh, you two old fools, I didn't expect you could play such tricks... You are too disgusting, aren't you?"
In front of the door, there was a stunningly beautiful woman of county level. She was eating an ice cream cone and talking to Old Man Li and Sister Liu who were fighting on the ground.
"Why...why is it you?!"
Sister Liu was shocked for a moment.
"Are you surprised or surprised?"
The woman eating an ice cream cone (Wuyang brand taro flavor)... Li Zi narrowed her eyes at this time.
"Sister Liu, you don't think I was really knocked unconscious at that time, do you? I heard it clearly...what you asked Brother Bang to do."
Old man Li also looked shocked and pushed Liu Susu away from him.
The two men quickly got up, confused and surprised.
Liu Susu looked outside the house in horror...and then she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one else outside and that the law enforcement officers probably hadn't arrived yet.
"You...you heard everything?"
"Ah." Li Zi shrugged, "You asked Ah Bang to kidnap the dean and attract the attention of Captain Gao and the others."
Liu Susu's face was extremely gloomy. "Then why didn't you tell Captain Gao and the others at that time?"
Li Zi said calmly, "What can I do? It's hard for me to do it... After all, in my sister's eyes, you are all good people... You are all relatives who took care of her when she grew up. What if my sister is unhappy and increases my rent? What if my sister is sad and forces me to work overtime? What if my sister cries..."
In an instant, Li Zi's black hair grew suddenly and turned into long hair like a snow-white and shiny silver waterfall.
"actually……"
Under the horrified gazes of Old Man Li and Sister Liu, Li Zi slowly walked into the wooden house.
"I don't want to get involved in this matter. Other people's lives and deaths have nothing to do with me. Your bullshit activities... that's it."
"No, no, no."
"Sister Liu...you came to me and used the orphanage demolition as an excuse to ask my sister to come back. You didn't have good intentions, did you?"
"After all...my sister's birthday also meets your criteria for finding someone, right?"
“I… I just want some blood from Ling girl…” Liu Susu’s face turned extremely pale and she was shaking all over. “It was Old Man Li! It was Old Man Li who said that the blood of people with good fortune is more effective… Ling girl is lucky. Even the kind-hearted person who funded the construction of the welfare home was willing to adopt her, saying that she has the best fortune… I really, really just want a little blood from her. I never thought of harming her… I, I did it all for the unfortunate man in my family… Don’t, don’t kill me…”
"It's not up to me to decide." Li Zi shook her head and suddenly turned around, "Am I right, Xiao... Luo?"
In the darkness, a figure slowly walked out of nothingness.
When she actually saw Luo Qiu appear, Li Zi's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly... She was just bluffing, God knows, he really did reveal a big... Demon King?
