“An Buqi, where’s my grandson? Where did my grandson go?”

“咚咚咚! 咚咚咚! 咚咚咚!”

In his room, An Buqi, who had just put down his phone, rubbed his forehead with a headache.

“Xi Ba!

What an old relic.

He has a doorbell, but all he knows is to bang on the door like crazy.”

Attorney An finished the rest of the red wine in his glass,

Got up,

And straightened his collar.

He didn’t go to the door to open it, but went to the balcony and tried to climb over to the next room.

This series of actions perfectly interpreted the idiom “feeling guilty like a thief.”

“Bang!”

A muffled sound came,

The door lock was blown off.

The door burst open,

Old Zhangtou's small body, like a volcano of rage, stormed in aggressively.

He certainly had good reason to be angry.

Attorney An subconsciously turned around, changing his posture from climbing the balcony to leaning against it, enjoying the afternoon sea breeze.

Sunshine, beach, warm wind,

Plus a gently swaying fringe,

Full of mature man charm.

These past few evenings, Attorney An would go down and chat with those online celebrities, sharing his life insights.

Although many online celebrities do rely on beauty filters, and some have even had plastic surgery, you have to admit that the general appearance of the online celebrity circle is much higher than other circles.

Of course, after sharing life insights, don't forget to show off your high-end wallet and pull out your precious gold card to pay the bill.

After all, a rich middle-aged man is called a “dashu” (uncle), while a poor middle-aged man is called… an old geezer.

The way Attorney An was facing Old Zhangtou at this moment could only mean one thing: he was a little flustered.

The reason for his fluster was self-evident.

Old Zhangtou stood there, his eyes fixed on Attorney An, and said, word by word:

“Where… is my grandson?”

Deep affection for offspring, especially across generations.

Not to mention how many generations were between Old Zhangtou and Lao Zhang. Despite Old Zhangtou constantly scolding Lao Zhang, in reality, he really cherished his grandson.

When drinking, he often lamented why fate kept targeting the Zhang family line, relentlessly fleecing them, but within this bitterness, there was also an unspeakable pride.

“Isn't Lao Zhang at the hotel? Maybe he went down for afternoon tea?”

Attorney An wore an innocent expression, as if he knew nothing, as innocent as a Teletubby.

Old Zhangtou silently stretched out his hands and began to form hand seals.

“Hey, I said, don't get impulsive!”

Attorney An immediately stepped down from the railing, pointing at Old Zhangtou, telling him to control himself.

“An Buqi, are you playing with me?”

Old Zhangtou was furious.

“A friend of his who's a policeman came to find him, so he went out to help uphold justice.”

“An Buqi!”

Old Zhangtou was enraged when he heard this.

“What, what does it have to do with me? His friend isn't my friend, I didn't arrange for that person to come. Your grandson seemed to be having a great time chatting with him.”

“An Buqi, I don’t believe you don't know what's going on in Sanya right now!

Bodhisattvas, the City God, plus the master of the Underworld Sea, are clearly engaged in a battle!

Although things seem calm these days, you and I both know that this is just the calm before the storm!

When gods fight, we little minions can only cower in a corner, trembling and praying not to be affected. How dare you let my grandson go outside!

I know what you're thinking, huh, you haven't given up on the plan you mentioned that night, have you?”

Since the matter had been brought up, Attorney An didn't bother to pretend anymore. He smiled and said:

“Alright, don't say it's my plan or arrangement. Maybe even higher-ups had this plan long ago.

I'm not exactly smart. If I were really smart, I would have become a judge long ago. I just rely on my dark heart to help big shots do dirty work and make a living.

But who sitting in those positions is a fool?

Do you believe they couldn't think of the methods I could think of?”

“What do you mean?”

“That's exactly what I mean! I just mentioned the plan, but I didn't actually use it, and I didn't give orders to the bookstore either!

I'm telling you, if something happens to your grandson, it has nothing to do with me. I didn't tell the boss or the others about this plan. From that point on, I couldn't contact the boss anymore!

I know you're angry. You're just like an old hen, but can you have a little ambition?

Let alone your grandson hasn't had an accident yet. Even if something really happens, what does it have to do with An Buqi?

Yeah, I'm just an easy target, so you're eager to bully me.

Do you dare bully the boss? Do you dare bully the City God?

Dare you?”

“……” Old Zhangtou.

“I know how you feel. Although I've always disliked your aloofness, I also understand what to do in certain situations. You know it clearly yourself.

Let me put it this way, if it weren't for meeting the boss, your grandson would have been gone long ago. Even his soul would have been eaten by passing filth.

Now,

Now,

Now,

The worst outcome is that your grandson becomes an immortal. It's a good thing that many people can't even ask for.”

Old Zhangtou plopped down on the ground, his expression somewhat dazed.

Clearly, he had absolutely no interest in the so-called "becoming an immortal."

In the human world, many people long for wealth and status, to rise above others;

But there are also people whose only hope is that their family can be together safely, even if they are poor, they are content.

Attorney An walked back from the balcony, stood in front of Old Zhangtou, clicked his tongue, and squatted down, looking at Old Zhangtou,

And slowly said:

“We’re just small shrimp in the hands of others, this is disrespectful, but you and I should both be clear.

Whether you accept it or not is your business, but if big shots really decide something, they won't care about the thoughts of us little people.

To take a step back, didn't your grandson realize that going out might be dangerous? Your grandson himself is actually willing.”

“Your words are too blatant,” Old Zhangtou glanced at Attorney An. “You, An Buqi, are childless, you wouldn't understand.”

“Now that I think about it, it's a good thing I stubbornly refused when my dad wanted to set me up on a blind date. If I had accidentally left a descendant here, that would have been a real problem.”

Old Zhangtou stared at Attorney An coldly and said:

“I won't allow such a thing to happen. If it does happen, I…”

Attorney An reached out and patted Old Zhangtou's shoulder,

And said earnestly:

“Be good, don't say such angry words.

Don't forget,

Without your grandson,

You still have your great-grandson.”

………………

Inside the wax museum,

The little loli and Black Xiaoniu were still imprisoned by frost.

The wax figures here had long been cleared out. The only one left was a wax figure of Ying Gou sitting on a throne of white bones.

And at this moment,

Half-Face stood in front of that wax figure.

In his eyes, there was neither reminiscence nor longing, only a lingering echo in the waves of history.

“You can't eat her.”

The little loli mustered her courage and finally spoke.

Heaven knows how much courage it took to speak in front of such a terrifying being!

But the little loli still stubbornly spoke, because the boss and the others were not in Tong City. She was guarding the house now.

Rushing up to fight was a meaningless choice. It wasn't that she couldn't choose that way, but the result of rushing up would be to be directly annihilated. For the other party, it would be as simple as stepping on an ant.

Although comparing herself to an ant was a metaphor that someone with Lin Ke's strong-willed personality disliked, in the face of reality, everything else was just fleeting clouds.

Being directly strangled and saying a few more words seemed like the latter could generate more value.

The woman had already been dug out and was lying there. The seal that had been placed on her had long been broken by Half-Face.

Old Xu's painstaking seal was already considered very excellent for ordinary people, but it was really not enough in front of Half-Face.

After all, he was the idol of Gou Village. He still had some ability.

Half-Face shifted his gaze,

Walked to the woman's side,

The woman's body was also stained with a layer of frost,

It could be seen that

She had been conscious all along, but like the little loli, she couldn't break free at all, or rather, she didn't dare to struggle.

Half-Face stretched out his hand and gently twisted his neck. A body made of lotus root was really uncomfortable. It was easy to dislocate joints with slight movements, and although the taste of lotus root was refreshing, no one could stand it if it lingered around their nose all the time.

“You can't eat her, you can't.”

Half-Face finally looked at the little loli,

“You are quite the, interesting little girl.”

The other party spoke to him?

At this moment,

The little loli surprisingly felt a sense of flattery.

Humility is a traditional Chinese virtue, especially when others praise you.

The little loli spoke with a hint of loneliness and self-deprecation:

“I’m just someone’s dog.”

Half-Face’s eyes immediately narrowed upon hearing this.

“Slap!”

The little loli was sent flying,

With a “plop,”

She fell into the pond.

“Glug glug… glug glug…”

“You… are not worthy to be called a dog!”

“Splash!”

The little loli, who was almost drowned, was pulled out of the pond,

Her body floated in the air,

Her wet hair was scattered on her face,

But even at this time,

The little loli still spoke:

“You were brought back by the boss, the boss ordered, she can't die, she can't!”

For the time being,

She could only bring out the boss to stop him.

Since the boss planted him here, it was impossible for him to grow a traitor, right?

Who would dig a pit for themselves like that?

Half-Face laughed,

He laughed exaggeratedly,

He laughed until tears came out,

He laughed until the little loli was confused,

Finally,

Half-Face stopped laughing,

Pointed to the pond and then to the woman over there,

And said:

“Why didn't you think of such a possibility,

He planted me here,

Maybe he just wanted me to wake up…”
