Escape in panic
The boss looked at the two little beggars in front of him with some affection. Although they were dressed in shabby clothes, the smiles on their faces came from the bottom of their hearts.
In a trance, it's like looking at your own child.
After he got married, he and his wife only had one child, but he died when he was less than three years old.
Later, for some unknown reason, my wife's belly remained silent, and even seeking medical advice everywhere had no effect.
The boss was particularly fond of the child after seeing him.
Those burnt sesame seed cakes were not easy to sell anyway, so they were simply given to these two poor children.
"You two little devils came to my place yesterday to take some sesame seed cakes back. According to your appetite, you shouldn't be able to finish them today, right?"
Xiaoyu raised his head: "We still have one more person!"
The boss snorted and said, "A little kid can't finish it, unless he's an adult."
Xiaoyu chuckled, he didn't want to reveal anything about Lao Qin.
The boss said disdainfully: "If you don't tell me, I know that these sesame cakes can't be kept on such a hot day. There must be someone else. Is he an adult in your family? I have to tell you. If he has hands and feet,
You kids shouldn’t be allowed to come out to beg for food and do anything bad, really!”
Seeing that the boss was a little unhappy, Xiaoyu quickly said: "Well... there is an adult, but he is physically disabled and it is inconvenient to come out..."
"Okay, stop talking, there are five more sesame seed cakes here, take them together!"
Xiaosi secretly gave Xiaoyu a thumbs up.
At this moment, a man with a pockmarked face came over.
"Bring me thirty sesame seed cakes, they'd better be hot."
Xiaoyu looked at him in surprise, but the man had no expression on his face and just stared at the sesame cakes in the shop.
It was the feeling of hunger, and he was most familiar with this feeling.
"Okay, just wait a moment, I'll get ready."
Very few people would buy thirty sesame seed cakes at once, and the boss was very happy.
The pock-marked man took the sesame seed cake, paid the money happily, and left.
Xiaoyu looked at his back and said, "This man has a really big appetite."
The boss shook his head and said: "He is definitely not alone. He bought thirty pieces yesterday, and the same amount today. I guess there are at least three people. This person is not from our town. I have never seen him."
Xiaoyu said: "He should have been up the mountain."
Xiaosi asked: "How did you know?"
"The legs of his trousers are wet with dew, and there are some grass leaves."
The boss smiled and said: "I didn't expect that your little devil's eyes are quite bright, and the nearby mountain is also the one in the north."
This pockmarked face is indeed a bit strange, but he is just a businessman. As long as someone is willing to pay, he will sell sesame seeds to others, and he doesn't want to get into trouble.
"You two little devils, it's okay to talk here, but don't let others hear it," the boss warned patiently.
After leaving the sesame cake shop, Xiaoyu was still thinking about that pockmarked face.
Xiaosi was thinking about another thing, and said with a smile: "I think the owner of the shaobing shop likes you very much. How about you become his son? Then you won't have to beg for food anymore, and you can also help us, hehe...
…”
"If you want to eat sesame seed cakes, then go and be his son yourself, and don't involve me!" Xiaoyu scolded with a smile, "I think he prefers you to be his son."
Xiao Si smiled: "Let's forget it and let Ah Liu go, he will be more obedient."
The two laughed.
At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed in front of them, and a familiar figure appeared in front of the two of them.
"It's him!"
That person was the pock-marked person who had just met at the shaobing shop.
Xiao Si warned in a low voice: "He doesn't look like a good person, stay away from him."
Xiaoyu said: "Do you think this person is strange?"
"Of course it's weird, it's different from normal people anyway."
"Follow him and see where he goes and what he does?"
"Hey, don't play with fire! What if this person is a bad guy?"
Xiaoyu smiled: "Let's follow him from a distance, it'll be fine!"
Xiaosi shook his head: "This is too dangerous, I don't agree."
"In this case, you take the sesame seeds back and I'll follow him!" Xiaoyu said resolutely.
"No, how can you do it alone?"
The little fish raised his feet and walked away. If he didn't follow, he would lose his pockmarked face.
Xiao Si chased after him. He was helpless, but Xiao Yu took the lead in everything before.
"When we see that the momentum is not right, let's run away quickly and don't show off!" Xiao Si was very worried.
Xiaoyu nodded: "Don't worry!"
The two little beggars followed Pockmarked Face at a distance, and Pockmarked Face walked out of the town and onto the road.
Xiaoyu and Xiaosi did not dare to go directly to the main road, but got into the woods beside the road. The trees that blocked the sky provided a good cover. The two were small and could not easily attract attention.
The pockmarked face was very vigilant and kept making anti-tracking movements, but the little fish was also very alert and kept the distance just right.
Seeing that the other party didn't notice them, Xiao Si breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice: "Will you still follow me?"
Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I learned it from walking around the streets on weekdays. Just read more and think more."
He didn't tell Xiaosi the truth. Someone had taught him this little stalking technique. It was his little secret.
After about a meal, Mazi turned around a mountain col and walked towards the mountain.
"Xiaoyu, please stop following me?"
Xiaoyu thought for a moment and said, "Go back!"
There is only one way up the mountain. If you continue to follow it, you will easily be noticed by the condescending pockmarked face.
The pock-marked man didn't realize that his whereabouts were in the eyes of the two little beggars, and he rushed all the way to his temporary destination.
This is a dense forest in the mountains. It is rarely visited on weekdays. The disadvantage is that there are many mosquitoes. Inaba Masao and Kuramoto who are hidden in it suffer from mosquito bites and suffer terribly.
Seeing the pockmarked face coming back, Kuramoto quickly took the cloth bag in his hand, took out the sesame seed cake and handed it to Inaba Masao.
Inaba Masao was so hungry that he took it and wolfed it down.
After eating two sesame seed cakes, I finally had food in my stomach. I wiped my mouth and asked, "How is the situation outside?"
"The manhunt is still going on. There don't seem to be many plainclothes agents, mainly the police and local vigilante groups. However, I think it's better not to be careless, and it's better to go out slowly."
Kuramoto said: "Are you sure you didn't see many plainclothes agents, or did they deliberately set up a fascination array?"
After losing in the continuous struggle, no one dares to be careless again.
Inaba Masao picked up another sesame seed cake, took a big bite, and looked at the pockmarked face.
"Team leader, it's hard to say this. I only purchased the necessary food. I don't dare to look at the rest or ask more questions." The pockmarked face answered truthfully.
Inaba Masao nodded. The conditions here are difficult, but what he is more concerned about is how things are going with Mr. Ishihara.
The fact that Nurse Yuan's family was rescued shows that the nail she planted has been completely exposed.
He knew that Mr. Ishihara's usual approach was to have backup plans, but the hospital was heavily guarded, and Nurse Yuan's exposure would make the already very difficult task even worse.
Inaba Masao has a natural restlessness in his bones and blood. The more challenging things are, the more he likes to do them.
And dealing with Yong Yejian is definitely a very challenging operation.
He respects seniors like Ishihara, but deep down he is not convinced and thinks that he is stronger than Ishihara.
The weather was extremely hot at noon. The dogs in the town were hiding in the shade, and there were almost no pedestrians on the street.
There is an office in the town hall, which is specially used by the police on duty. The house just faces the street, and has a window. From a distance, you can see who is walking on the street.
However, the fat policeman on duty today lay down on the table and dozed off.
In the dream, he was drinking with a few friends in a restaurant. There was also a storyteller in the restaurant, who was talking about the execution of Japanese spies at Guanxiangkou a few days ago.
Suddenly, the storyteller's gavel suddenly took off his hand and came straight to the fat policeman's head.
This time the fat policeman was frightened and he hurriedly dodged.
However, it was as if a immobilization technique had been cast on him, unable to move at all.
