Chapter 20: An Uninvited Visitor
Yang Qingtong rubbed her eyes, and when she looked closely, it was indeed Grandma Xia's house.
The big locust tree in front of the door is still the same as before, but it doesn't have the feeling of being as tall as when I was a child. The breeze blew and many leaves fell.
The low courtyard walls, the painted gates, as if time has never taken anything away from here, everything is the way it was at the beginning.
Yang Qingtong stood in the distance, immersed in that faint nostalgia, and another black shadow appeared from the other side of the alley.
Seeing that this person was sneaky and seemed to be looking for something, Yang Qingtong's heart tightened, and he hurriedly flashed to the corner of the alley on the other side, hiding his figure and secretly looking.
I saw that the man was very athletic, wearing a brown jacket on the upper body and blue jeans on the lower body.
It's just that on the face like a knife and an axe, those cloudy eyes make people feel very uncomfortable.
The man went from house to house and shrunk his head, looking down at something from time to time.
When he walked outside the courtyard wall of Grandma Xia's house, he suddenly stopped. He observed for a moment, as if he had discovered something.
He looked left and right vigilantly, so frightened that Yang Qingtong hurriedly retracted his head. Then, I heard a "whoosh", and when Yang Qingtong stretched out his head again, the person was gone.
It's Grandma Xia's house again!
How could something strange happen in this ordinary town, an ordinary grandmother's house actually attracted two uninvited guests.
Yang Qingtong couldn't help muttering in his heart, did he think too much? Because the recent "Walnut Gate Incident" made her look like bad people, but if they are good people, how can they explain what just happened?
If you don't go in and see for yourself, if there is really something, you may be able to help, and you must not let Grandma Xia be in danger. Yang Qingtong made up his mind and was about to walk into the alley, when he suddenly thought of the overwhelming disappearance of newspapers and the Internet in the past few days.
She wants to be famous, but she doesn't want to have an accident, this kind of news, it's better not to make headlines.
Yang Qingtong took out his mobile phone and hesitated. Alarm? Now there is no evidence of anything. Tell Mom? The figure worries her. Call Ah Xian? This guy is really unreliable.
In the end, she called Xiao Zhi, who let this guy lie that he was the director of security, this should be his business, not to mention that he will work hard, and he will not suffer if he is a little bit of a situation.
"Hey, Xiaozhi, what are you doing? Come over here, at Grandma Xia's house in the north of town. What? If you don't know the road, what is the use of what is grown under your nose? β
Yang Qingtong reluctantly said the location briefly, "Come quickly, don't ask so much." If I hang up, this call log is your last evidence of suspicion. β
After Yang Qingtong threatened Lin Xiaozhi, he felt indescribable joy in his heart. It feels really cool to order people, and it seems that even if you don't have to bet in the future, you can be a servant.
After making a precautionary plan, Yang Qingtong walked briskly towards Grandma Xia's house.
"Grandma Xia, are you there?"
"Grandma Xiaβ" Before she could shout a few more words, she heard the sound of footsteps in the courtyard.
"Who? Come in, the door is unlocked. An old, kind face appeared in front of him.
"It's me, Qingtong!" Yang Qingtong pushed open the gate and came to the yard, and when he saw that Grandma Xia was fine, a stone in his heart fell to the ground.
"Yo, isn't this Pepper?" Grandma Xia's wrinkled face bloomed with a smile.
"It's me, why do you still like to call me by a nickname! Hehe! Yang Qingtong hugged Grandma Xia and said happily, "Are you okay now?" β
"Okay, good, it's just that I'm older, and my eyes aren't very good. When did you get back? As she spoke, Grandma Xia winked vigorously at Qingtong, as if hinting at something.
"I've only been back for two days, and I haven't had time to see you yet. It just so happened that my mother asked me to buy a few eggs today, so I won't come over! β
Yang Qingtong understood, and while pretending to continue chatting, he took the old man's hand and moved towards the door.
Just as they were about to walk out of the courtyard, they heard someone shouting outside the gate: "Is Mrs. Xia here?" I'll wrap all your eggs today! βββ
