Chapter 26 You coward
Chapter 26 You coward
"Is there something you need, Auntie?"
Ma Yurou turned around and asked in confusion.
"Young lady, I want to catch a bus at Pinghu Bridge, but I don't know the way. Could you show me the way?"
The middle-aged woman (Wang Cuihua) looked pitiful.
"Okay, no problem."
Pinghu Bridge was only a street away from where Ma Yurou was. Seeing that it wasn't far, she agreed and led the way.
"Young lady, please walk slowly, my legs aren't very strong."
Wang Cuihua continued.
"Then let me help you."
Seeing that she was indeed walking with a limp, Ma Yurou came over to help her.
"Thank you, young lady. You are such a good girl. Whoever marries you will be very lucky."
Wang Cuihua praised her with a smile.
No, no.
Ma Yurou was a little embarrassed.
Zhou Huai put Chen Yao down.
"Yao-mei, there's something I want to talk to you about."
He still wanted to be honest with Chen Yao. It was better to tell her now than for her to find out later. Nothing can be kept secret forever.
"Honey, what's up?"
Seeing Zhou Huai speaking so seriously, Chen Yao looked puzzled.
Just then, Wang Cuihua and Ma Yurou walked past Zhou Huai, and he saw them.
In an instant, a memory from a few days before his rebirth flooded his mind.
"Zhou Huai, let me tell you, before the college entrance exam I kindly helped an auntie with directions, but I never expected that she was actually a human trafficker."
She wanted to lure me to a secluded place so that her two accomplices, who were lying in ambush there, could kidnap me.
Luckily, I happened to run into a beautiful and capable policewoman, otherwise I would have been in big trouble.
So we can't easily trust others. This girl is perfectly capable; she just laid out a sign on the ground saying she lost her fare home, and you believed her? But I saw her kneeling here just a few days ago.
"Okay, Sister Rou, I understand."
Could it have happened today?
No, I have to go and see.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
Chen Yao had her back turned and didn't see Ma Yurou. Seeing that Zhou Huai remained silent, she became even more puzzled.
"Gangrou (Sister)... Xiaorou left with a strange woman, and I thought that woman's smile was rather cunning..."
"Xiaorou, which way did they go?"
Chen Yao immediately became anxious, interrupting Zhou Huai and looking around erratically.
"They're heading in the direction of Pinghu Street. Yaomei, get on, I'll carry you, I can run fast."
As he spoke, Zhou Huai squatted down.
"it is good."
Chen Yao nodded and quickly climbed onto his back.
Even if there's nothing wrong, she still wants and likes to have Zhou Huai carry her.
With the boost from the Wind Speed Shoes, he could run very fast even while carrying Chen Yao on his back.
"Honey, I see her. Xiaorou is right ahead, on Pinghu Outer Street."
Chen Yao was quite excited, and her voice even became much louder.
Pinghu Street is divided into an inner street and an outer street. The inner street is a one-stop shop for food and shopping. It's almost lunchtime now, and there are many people coming and going, making it very lively.
The outer street is lined with clothing stores, most of which only open in the afternoon when the weather turns cool, so there aren't many people there.
Furthermore, the riverside of this street is filled with all kinds of cars, making it very suitable for Tibetans.
"Yao-mei, keep your voice down. Let's secretly follow them and see what's going on."
"Um."
Zhou Huai wasn't sure if it was really today, so he didn't chase after them immediately for fear of making a mistake.
He put Chen Yao down, and the two followed behind hand in hand, neither too close nor too far apart.
However, just to be on the safe side, Zhou Huai took out the save crystal from the system space, pressed the button on it, and recorded the current time.
If it's a misunderstanding, Zhou Huai doesn't need to crush the save crystal; the save will automatically expire after 5 minutes.
If it really is some kind of human trafficker, then crush the save crystal, turn back time, and then intervene directly.
Time passed second by second, and three minutes later, just as Ma Yurou helped Wang Cuihua into the corner.
Two burly men suddenly jumped off a white bread truck parked to the side.
Wang Cuihua immediately took out a towel from her left pocket and covered Ma Yurou's mouth.
"Xiao Rou!"
Upon seeing this, Chen Yao exclaimed in surprise.
Zhou Huai released her hand, burst into his fastest running speed, and rushed over, shouting, "What are you doing!"
Caught off guard, and with Wang Cuihua standing too close, Ma Yurou was knocked unconscious by her.
Upon hearing the noise, the two burly men quickly lifted Ma Yurou, who had almost fallen to the ground, and put her into the car.
Without hesitation, Zhou Huai crushed the save crystal.
Even if he could catch up with them, Ma Yurou would already be in their hands, and he would definitely be hesitant to act rashly and would be put on the defensive.
On the other hand, once the props are used, they can be used again later. Zhou Huai didn't want to gamble at all, especially for his friend's safety.
The next second, he was back to three minutes earlier.
"Yao-mei, stay where you are and wait for me. I'm calling the police."
Zhou Huai released Chen Yao's hand, then sprang into action and chased after her, shouting as he did so.
"Sister Rou, stay away from that woman."
Because they were not far apart, Ma Yurou heard his voice clearly and quickly let go of Wang Cuihua's hand.
Wang Cuihua also heard the sound and quickly took out the towel sprayed with sleeping pills to cover Ma Yurou's mouth.
But by this time, Ma Yurou had already distanced herself from Wang Cuihua and was on guard, so she did not succeed.
Zhou Huai had caught up. He kicked Wang Cuihua hard, sending her flying. She crashed into a car parked next to her before coming to a stop.
At that moment, four burly men got out of the white bread truck parked at the corner ahead, two more than before time rewound.
They were all carrying knives and charged towards Zhou Huai and Ma Yurou's location.
Ma Yurou was stunned by what she saw.
"Sister Rou, don't be afraid. Go to Yao's side quickly. I'll deal with them."
Even though he had mastered the Tianshan Six Yang Palms, Zhou Huai was not careless in the face of four burly men wielding knives. He immediately took out the famous sword, Lightning Pill (100% charge), from his system space.
He charged his battery before going to bed last night.
"Zhou Huai..."
When Ma Yurou came to her senses, she didn't run back immediately because Zhou Huai rushed up to her.
She was very worried about him.
Meanwhile, in a small alley connecting to Pinghu Outer Street, two men were harassing a watermelon vendor, demanding protection money from him.
"Brother Chicken is my benefactor."
The one who spoke was the blond-haired guy, who just happened to see Zhou Huai run past him.
"That's true."
Lin Kun immediately pulled his right foot off the watermelon vendor and ran towards Pinghu Outer Street.
Yellow Hair followed closely behind.
"Yellow Hair, let's go help."
Seeing Zhou Huai suddenly charge towards the four burly men wielding knives, Lin Kun felt a surge of heat and rushed forward with the watermelon knife he had just snatched from the watermelon vendor.
"Brother Chicken, I don't dare. The other guy is so strong, and he has a knife."
Huang Mao didn't have a knife, so he didn't dare to charge.
"You coward."
Lin Kun didn't look back and continued charging forward.
