Chapter 862: One or Two Want to Harm Her
Through the door, I could hear footsteps walking back and forth outside the living room, the sound of the television, and low conversations. All the sounds mixed together until all the sounds disappeared completely and everything returned to silence.
Zhang Ran took out her phone and checked the time. It was three forty-five. She leaned against the door and listened for a while. Half an hour later, she turned on the light, pretended to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, opened the door and walked out.
The living room was empty, not a soul was in it.
Really gone?
Zhang Ran checked every room, including the closets where people could hide, and searched every place until he was sure that Luo Laoliu had really taken them away.
"This house can no longer be lived in. I have to sell it as soon as possible." Zhang Ran muttered to himself.
She didn't want to see Luo Laoliu or any of those criminals again.
I went into the bathroom, took out a basin and a rag, cleared the dining table, put the dishes they had used into the kitchen, wiped everywhere, completely erasing all traces of their presence, then went into the kitchen to wash the dishes. While cleaning up, I suddenly found a note in the cupboard.
After unfolding it, there are a few lines of text on it: I suspect I have been exposed. This kidnapping of the richest man's son was a test from Boss Huo to Sixth Brother, but Sixth Brother asked me to do it myself. During the kidnapping process, I met Cheng An'an and had to kidnap her as well. The two hostages have been moved and I don't even know where they are. Please contact the police. I will do my best to rescue Cheng An'an.
With a click, Zhang Ran turned on the gas stove and threw the note on it.
Contact the police? Ha!
The whole city is under martial law, and the police are searching everywhere. Her uncle regards her place as a safe haven, and if she is not careful, she will be implicated by him and be misunderstood by the police as harboring a criminal gang or colluding with them. Either charge will ruin her current stable life, her studies, and her career!
Mu Mingqi treated her as a contact person and dragged her into the water. If the criminal gang thought that she had betrayed them, not only would she die, but even Ergu and the others would not survive!
One or two of them want to harm her!
Zhang Ran pretended he had never seen the note, turned off the gas stove, picked up the ashes and threw them into the trash can.
Whoever interferes will die. She hasn't lived enough, so no one should try to implicate her!
She just wanted to live her own life. As for her uncle and Mu Mingqi, even if they fought to the death, she would not help anyone. At most, she would help them collect the bodies and burn more paper money during the Qingming Festival every year.
I went back to the room, took off the sheets and replaced them with clean ones. The bed had been slept in by Luo Laoliu before.
After checking that all the doors and windows were locked, I turned off the lights and went to bed, until I was woken by the ringing of my cell phone.
Zhang Ran closed his eyes and reached for the phone to answer it.
"Boss, are you home?" The driver Uncle Wang's anxious voice came from the phone, "I can't get in, did you lock the door? Are you up? Are you going to school today?"
"…I feel a little uncomfortable. I won't go to school today. I'll go to the hospital later. You wait outside. I'll ask for a day off from school." Zhang Ran hung up the phone and asked for a day's sick leave from the counselor. He got up, brushed his teeth, and got in the car. He took out his phone and called Yang Tao, "Hello? Which ward are you in?"
"Xiao Yue? Why didn't you go to school today?"
"Which ward is it in?"
"How do you know I'm in the hospital? I'm fine. I just got bumped into and fell, and sprained my ankle..."
In the ward, Yang Tao was lying on the bed with her right foot in a cast. She hung up the phone and looked at Luo Youge, "Xiao Yue called. She wants to come to the hospital to see me."
