Chapter Eighty-Seven: Accidental Death
The sun had gradually risen, but Dr. Liu's son did not have the slightest intention of leaving.
Tong Xiang looked at Jin Xinyue and Xiaoqin beside him, and said slowly: "Let's go back and change our clothes first, and meet them outside later." ”
"What to change, what if he's gone in a moment?"
Jin Xinyuan couldn't understand the idea of the lead, and asked suspiciously.
Chu Xiao nodded, "You guys go and come back quickly." ”
Tong Xiang ignored Jin Xinyuan's words, and smiled at Chu Xiao, "If he wants to leave, you can find a reason to hold him back." ”
After finishing speaking, Tong Xiang subconsciously glanced at Jin Xinyuan.
Jin Xinyuan immediately hugged himself tightly, "What do you want to do?" ”
"Don't worry, I won't sacrifice you."
Tong Xiang sneered and said angrily.
After standing here for almost a night, Jin Xinyuan was indeed a little tired, and he yawned weakly.
"Chu Xiao, you watch first, I'll squint for a while."
Jin Xinyuan's voice became smaller and smaller, his head slowly moved to Chu Xiao's shoulder, and his eyes closed after a while.
Chu Xiao didn't push him away, after all, he was still a child.
Just when Jin Xinyuan was almost asleep, Dr. Liu's son suddenly got up and prepared to leave.
Chu Xiao instantly became energetic, and he patted Jin Xinyuan, who was sitting on the side, "Wake up, he's leaving." ”
"Let's go."
Jin Xinyuan was in a daze at this time, and he had already forgotten what he was here for.
Chu Xiao sighed helplessly and shook him fiercely, this matter really couldn't be done without him.
Seeing that Dr. Liu's son was about to walk to the door, Chu Xiao didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and walked towards him with a drag.
Dr. Liu's son looked at Chu Xiao's unfamiliar face and was a little impatient, "Who are you, you dare to block my way." ”
Chu Xiao smiled slightly, "Childe, don't be angry, we just want to ask you about something, just now I saw that you were playing over there, I didn't dare to disturb, this little brother is going to sleep." ”
The man looked at Chu Xiao, then at Jin Xinyuan, who was still dazed, and sighed helplessly.
"What do you want to ask?"
Today, Dr. Liu's son won the money, and he was naturally in a good mood, so he didn't feel so irritated after hearing Chu Xiao's words.
Chu Xiao's face showed a guilty expression, "Big brother, I just saw you playing over there, I don't know if you can teach me, I will lose this time, it's really annoying." ”
"You're a little embarrassed for me, if I tell you all the tricks, then how will I mess up in the future?"
As soon as he heard this, Dr. Liu's son was a little unhappy.
Chu Xiao looked at Jin Xinyuan beside him, only to see that his eyes were closed, and he didn't look like he was about to wake up at all, so he could only stubbornly continue to deal with Dr. Liu's son.
In fact, what they originally wanted was to ask Jin Xinyuan to take the money to gamble with Dr. Liu's son for two games, so that it would not make people suspicious and delay time.
But now it seems that this idea is not possible.
Chu Xiao has never been interested in these things, so he naturally won't go to the gambling table.
Seeing that Chu Xiao hadn't spoken, Dr. Liu's son didn't waste time with them anymore, he snorted coldly and walked away.
Chu Xiao watched the man's back gradually move away, and hurriedly chased after him.
The short distance from the gambling house to the street was only a dozen meters, and along the way, Chu Xiao was worried about how to tell Tong Xiang about them, lest they pounce.
Who knew that as soon as they went out, they saw that Tong Xiang and the three of them were already dressed and sitting in the tea pavilion opposite.
Chu Xiao glanced at them, Tong Xiang understood, paid the money and left.
As soon as Dr. Liu's son came out of the gambling house, he found a carriage, which went in the direction of the mountain not far away.
Chu Xiao threw Jin Xinyuan, who was still asleep, on Jin Xinyue's body, and looked at the direction in which the carriage left.
"You go back first, and I'll explore the way."
"I'll go too."
Tong Xiang was afraid that Chu Xiao would have some trouble alone, so he said without thinking.
The corners of Chu Xiao's mouth hooked up a light smile, and his voice responded gently: "You take care of the three of them here, I'll go back as soon as I go." ”
Without waiting for Tong Xiang to say anything more, Chu Xiao had already disappeared in front of their eyes.
Jin Xinyue and Xiaoqin, who had never seen Chu Xiao's light skills, were suddenly stunned, "Young Master Chu is too powerful." ”
I don't know why, as long as I hear Jin Xinyue praise Chu Xiao, Tong Xiang's heart will be a little uncomfortable.
She coughed lightly twice, "Actually, it's nothing, you just see his advantages, and when you get along for a long time, you will find a lot of problems with him." ”
Jin Xinyue was a little confused by Tong Xiang's answer, she just wanted to speak, but was blocked by Tong Xiang.
"Everyone is tired, and it's not suitable to sleep here, so let's go back quickly."
Although Jin Xinyuan is not very old, he has grown rapidly in height recently, and it is not easy to hold on.
Jin Xinyue and Xiaoqin could barely help him up, and if he walked, it would be even more difficult.
Tong Xiang looked at the stumbling appearance of the three people, and felt a little reluctant in his heart, so he blocked in front of them.
"Let me come."
Jin Xinyue was a little embarrassed, after all, it was his younger brother, "Doctor Tong, let's come with me." ”
Before she finished her words, Tong Xiang had already taken over Jin Xinyuan from her hands.
Just before he could move forward, Tong Xiang let go of his hand.
Jin Xinyue was immediately frightened when she saw this situation, and she hurriedly ran forward to support Jin Xinyuan.
It's just that when she ran over there, Jin Xinyuan's head was only about three inches off the ground, and she didn't have time at all.
Just when she didn't understand why Tong Xiang was doing this, Tong Xiang's right foot was gently raised, and it just reached Jin Xinyuan's abdomen.
In this way, Jin Xinyuan's face stopped exactly an inch above the ground.
After such a process, how could Jin Xinyuan still be able to sleep, his eyes widened in horror, and he watched the ants on the ground slowly walk in front of him.
As soon as Tong Xiang exerted force under his feet, Jin Xinyuan's whole person stood up straight.
After being silent for a moment, Jin Xinyuan was full of relief, "Tong Xiang, you want to make money and kill yourself." ”
After finishing speaking, Jin Xinyuan looked around and asked angrily, "Chu Xiao, I obviously remember that I was with him." ”
"You can still remember Chu Xiao, what were you doing when he was chasing Dr. Liu's son?"
Speaking of Chu Xiao, Tong Xiang snorted coldly and glared at Jin Xinyuan.
Jin Xinyuan recalled the previous incident, his face turned red all of a sudden, and he coughed twice in embarrassment.
"Didn't I hold back for a while and fell asleep?"
After finishing speaking, he didn't give Tong Xiang a chance to taunt him at all, and immediately asked, "Where are we going now?" ”
"Go back to the inn and rest."
Xiaoqin stood aside and replied softly.
When I returned to the inn, it was already dawn, and the second child also arrived at the post.
As soon as they saw Tong Xiang and them coming back, the little second who led the way yesterday hurriedly greeted them, "How is it, did you find it?" ”
"Thank you for leading the way yesterday, but other things have nothing to do with you, don't ask more."
Tong Xiang sat on the stool, squinted at Xiao Er, and said coldly.
Xiao Er lowered his head in a daze, but soon he sorted out his mood and looked at the person in front of him with a smile, as if nothing had happened just now.
"What the girl said is, I don't know what to eat in the morning, so I can tell the kitchen to do it."
"Just have some simple steamed bun porridge."
After eating, everyone went back to their rooms, and they didn't sleep all night, Jin Xinyue's sister and brother and Xiaoqin fell asleep as soon as they touched the bed.
Tong Xiang lay on the bed tossing and turning, and it was difficult to fall asleep.
Can Chu Xiao really be able to cope with it alone, where is Dr. Liu's home, Chu Xiao hasn't come back for so long.
The more Tong Xiang thought about it, the more anxious she became, she took a deep breath and immediately sat up from the bed, she must go to him.
Just walked to the door, Tong Xiang retreated back, he didn't know where they were going, if they went the wrong way, wouldn't Chu Xiao have to look for him again at that time?
When Tong Xiang was struggling, a familiar voice suddenly came from the door, "Have you slept?" ”
As soon as he heard Chu Xiao's voice, Tong Xiang's whole mood improved a lot.
She tried her best to suppress the joy in her heart, and pretended to be calm and said, "I didn't sleep, come in." ”
Chu Xiao pushed the door in, walked straight to Tong Xiang's side and sat down.
"There's bad news."
Tong Xiang's face immediately became gloomy, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she asked cautiously, "What's wrong?" ”
Chu Xiao sighed helplessly, "I followed Dr. Liu's son all the way over just now, they did live in the mountains, but when I followed him into the courtyard, I heard that Dr. Liu was no longer there." ”
"How is it possible, why is it so sudden?"
According to what Jin Xinyuan said before, Dr. Liu has always paid attention to health preservation, and his body is quite tough, how could such an accident occur?
Chu Xiao was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke, "Do you say it will have something to do with us?" ”
Chu Xiao didn't continue, but Tong Xiang already understood what he meant.
How could there be such a coincidence in this world, they had just found out where Dr. Liu lived, and Dr. Liu died violently in a blink of an eye.
Tong Xiang looked at Chu Xiao, his brows furrowed, and his face was serious.
"Then do you know how Dr. Liu died?"
Chu Xiao shook his head, "At that time, I was far away, and I couldn't show up directly, so I'll come back and discuss with you what to do next." ”
Tong Xiang nodded, looked at Chu Xiao and smiled, "You're tired for a day, hurry up and rest for a while." ”
