Chapter 276 It’s important to escape
Si Nanzhao seemed to see Lin Zhong's worry, holding his hand and said with a smile: "Uncle Lin, there are thieves who can steal for a thousand days, but there is no such thing as guarding against thieves for a thousand days. So, don't think too much, this yard will be left to you to guard in the future. Yunbei and I are at ease with you."
"Yes, yes, Uncle Lin, you'd better not give up. Otherwise, this yard might be occupied by someone else again." Yunbei also echoed.
After hearing what the two said, Lin Zhong finally smiled and said, "Okay, since you don't think I'm useless and want me to help guard the yard, then I'll stay and help you guard it."
After comforting Lin Zhong, Si Nanzhao and Yun Bei entered the house.
The whole house had been searched and things looked a bit messy. As they sorted things out, they wondered what the mysterious man was looking for and why he had found his way to their house.
If I had known this would happen, I should have asked Nangong Bo just now.
At this moment, neither of them thought about the box. After all, it was something belonging to the Nangong family. Who would have thought that it was related to the mysterious person?
After tidying up the house, the two saw that it was getting late, so they went to the kitchen together to cook and eat.
But just as they finished preparing the meal and had not had time to eat, Zhou Yanfang came alone.
"Have you eaten yet, Yanfang? Let's eat together." Si Nanzhao invited Zhou Yanfang to eat together.
Zhou Yanfang realized that he had come at a really bad time and was about to refuse when Yunbei spoke up, saying, "Sit down and eat. We can talk after dinner if you have anything to say."
After hearing this, Zhou Yanfang had no choice but to sit down.
While eating, Zhou Yanfang couldn't help but tell his purpose.
"What did you say? Have you seen that young man?" Yun Bei looked surprised. He didn't expect that Zhou Yanfang had actually met Rong Rui.
"Yes, after discovering Nangong Bo was missing, I went out with everyone to look for him. I passed him in an alley. He was dressed in black and looked like he was in a hurry. At the time, I was so focused on finding Nangong Bo that I didn't pay much attention to him. It wasn't until I saw the portrait my sister-in-law drew that I remembered him."
"In that case, we'll go with you later."
"Thank you!" Zhou Yanfang smiled. He came here specifically to ask the two for help.
After dinner, Lin Zhong knew that Yun Bei and Si Nan Zhao had something to do, so he didn't let them clean up, but urged them to get busy.
Seeing that Zhou Yanfang was indeed a little anxious, the two of them had no choice but to get up and leave, and said to Lin Zhong: "Uncle Lin, thank you for your help."
"No trouble, no trouble." Lin Zhong waved his hand, signaling the two to go out quickly and not to keep Zhou Yanfang waiting anxiously.
The three of them went out together and headed straight for the alley that Zhou Yanfang mentioned.
It was noon and everyone was eating at home, so there were not many people in the alley. The three of them came to the place where Zhou Yanfang met Rong Rui.
Looking at the yard in front of him that was obviously inhabited but without any trace of life, Yunbei decided to go in and take a look.
"Wife, let me go." Si Nanzhao was a little worried and grabbed Yunbei who was about to climb over the wall.
Yunbei glanced at Si Nanzhao and did not insist any more, so he gave his seat to him.
Si Nanzhao took a running start and directly climbed onto the wall. However, he did not jump down in a hurry, but observed it first.
Yunbei and Zhou Yanfang were worried about Si Nanzhao while paying attention to the movements around them.
The reason why Zhou Yanfang asked Si Nanzhao and Yun Bei to come together instead of Qin Hua was because he knew that the two of them were better in skills and their safety was more guaranteed.
He didn't want to fail to catch the person and get into trouble instead.
As soon as Si Nanzhao climbed up the wall, Rong Rui in the room knew what was going on. So he walked out and saw the people on the wall. He said sarcastically, "Brother, it seems not good to climb over someone else's wall in broad daylight, right?"
"It's really not good." Si Nanzhao smiled and jumped down.
Rong Rui saw that Si Nanzhao not only did not run away, but jumped in instead. He immediately became alert and asked, "Are you here to see me?"
"Yes! To be exact, I'm looking for you and your grandfather."
As soon as these words came out, Rong Rui's face changed immediately. The only person who knew their and their grandfather's identities was Nangong Bo. It seemed that this old guy betrayed them as soon as he was caught.
Damn it, I must get rid of him after I solve the current trouble. It is a waste of food to keep an old guy like him.
Thinking of this, Rong Rui decided to fight quickly and capture Si Nanzhao as quickly as possible.
But just as he was about to do it, a voice came from the room, saying, "Rui'er, don't waste time, let's go."
After hearing this, Rong Rui had no choice but to return to the house.
Old man Rong in the room had already opened the secret passage and was waiting for his grandson to come in before leaving.
When Si Nanzhao heard that they were about to leave, he knew that there must be a secret passage in the house. So he shouted to Yunbei and Zhou Yanfang who were waiting outside, "Yunbei, Yanfang, they are trying to run away. I will chase them, and you follow me."
When old man Rong saw his grandson coming in and was about to leave, he heard Si Nanzhao actually calling Yun Bei's name, and he couldn't help but retract the foot he had taken.
He didn't find that thing in Yunbei's house before. Now that Yunbei offered it to him, could he give it a try?
No matter whether the thing is on Yunbei's body or left in the compound, as long as Yunbei is caught, can we get the thing?
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" Rong Rui saw that his grandfather suddenly stood still and couldn't help but become worried.
Hearing his grandson's voice, Old Man Rong finally came to his senses and said, "Let's go quickly."
He was really crazy just now, how could he have such thoughts?
Not to mention that he didn't know how many people were outside, just saying that they had rescued Nangong Bo had already touched the red line. If they didn't leave and were caught, they would have no choice but to stay with Nangong Bo.
What's more, the things he did before could not be checked. If they were found out, he and his grandson would definitely eat peanuts.
The more he thought about it, the faster Old Man Rong walked.
The box was important, but his life was more important. Right now, he had to escape. As for the box, he would find a way to get it back later.
To take a step back, even if Yunbei opened the box and saw what was inside, it would be useless if he couldn't find the person.
Si Nanzhao followed Rong Rui into the house, but because he didn't know where the secret passage was, he lost track of the two for a while.
When Yun Bei and Zhou Yanfang came in, he was still looking for the secret passage.
"The person ran away?" Yun Bei looked at Si Nanzhao's frustrated expression and walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder.
"Well, I can't find where the secret passage is." Si Nanzhao said as he looked around.
Seeing him like this, Yunbei started looking for him without saying a word.
The house was so small, and the secret passage must be right under their feet. Thinking of this, Yunbei couldn't help but look down.
