The man with black-rimmed glasses interrupted everyone's conversation, "Hurry up and finish your breakfast."
"Mr. Xiao Xiao is still waiting for us outside."
"It's not too early."
"Oh~"
Everyone responded.
"besides-"
The man with black-rimmed glasses looked at the crowd and said in a tone that said, "Leizi and Lingling will go back to work later."
"I will accompany Xiao Zhao and Mr. Xiao Xiao to her friend's house."
"Ah~"
The short-haired woman and the crew-cut man shouted in unison, "Why?"
"Why?"
The man with black-framed glasses narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a reflection on the lenses, "Today is a normal day at work."
"Besides, is it reasonable for so many of us to ask for leave together?"
"I can't even ask for leave."
Seeing that the two of them were still unwilling to say anything more, he made the final decision, "That's it."
"Now, hurry up and have breakfast."
"It takes a while to get to the company from here."
"You two, don't be late."
…
After eating breakfast, the two people who were a little angry calmed down.
They knew what Xia Suwen said was right.
It's just that it's inevitable that I still have a bit of luck.
Give them some time and they will accept this arrangement.
"Xiao Zhao, be sure to tell me any new developments."
A woman with short hair holds her friend's arm.
"knew."
Gu Xiaozhao smiled and nodded.
...
"Mr. Xiao Xiao."
The man with black-rimmed glasses stopped at the door of the hall and looked in. He was looking for something, but unexpectedly he saw Xiao Xiao sitting on the sofa by the window.
I wonder if it was his misunderstanding?
I always feel that I didn’t have any feeling when we were together before, but now I am looking at Mr. Xiao Xiao from a distance.
It seems... I can clearly feel that he is slightly different from the others.
Just an indescribable feeling.
Maybe it's aura? Or temperament?
He was a little confused.
However, when he met Xiao Xiao's gaze, he was subconsciously startled.
All the messy thoughts in my mind disappeared instantly.
A polite smile appeared on his face and he nodded slightly to Xiao Xiao, then greeted a few people around him and walked over.
He probably thinks that Mr. Xiao Xiao is a powerful expert, so he can't help but use a filter to look at him, right?
Different from others or something...
Isn't this a matter of course?
Everyone is different.
...
"Mr. Xiao Xiao."
The man with black-rimmed glasses stopped about two steps in front of Xiao Xiao, "Sorry for keeping you waiting."
Xiao Xiao stood up and said, "No."
"Shall we leave now?"
"Um."
The man with black-rimmed glasses nodded and then explained a few words, "Mr. Xiao Xiao, Xiao Zhao and I will go with you."
"Leizi and Lingling went back to the company to work."
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, "Well, you can just make your own arrangements."
If Gu Xiaozhao hadn't been a victim of the monster's poison, maybe he needed some help from the other party to find the monster, and he would actually prefer to go alone.
However, since Gu Xiaozhao is going, it doesn't matter if he brings Xia Suwen with him.
After all, there is no big difference between going to one or going to several.
"oh"
The expected answer was that the man with black-framed glasses did not say anything else, "Mr. Xiao Xiao, I'm going to take a taxi. Please wait here."
"Xiao Zhao, you and Mr. Xiao Xiao wait here together."
"Lingling, Leizi, come with me to the entrance of the hotel."
He looked down at the watch on his wrist and said, "It's getting late. You should also take a taxi."
"Since you have decided to go, don't be late."
The man with black-rimmed glasses looked at the two of them.
"Um."
"I got it, Brother Su."
The short-haired woman and the crew-cut man responded one after another.
...
Xiao Xiao sat back on the sofa again.
He tilted his head slightly and looked out the window.
The woman sat down on the sofa opposite Xiao Xiao.
Looking at Xiao Xiao's quiet and indifferent profile, she pursed her lips and couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Xiao Xiao, how did I get poisoned?"
She never understood this.
That’s why I couldn’t believe Mr. Xiao Xiao’s words at first.
However, last night's unforgettable experience made her understand that she had indeed been poisoned.
Without her even realizing it.
So, "Who poisoned me?"
"too crazy."
She murmured to herself, "Have I done anything to offend anyone?"
"You actually want to poison me?!"
...
"Have I done anything that excessive?"
"horrible."
When she thought about an unknown person secretly harboring ill intentions toward her, her hands and feet became cold and her heartbeat became disordered.
Unknown enemies are always the most fearful and fearful.
...
"It's not clear right now."
Xiao Xiao retracted his gaze and glanced at the woman.
"Oh, I know, you won't find out until you go to my friend's place, right?"
The woman was not surprised by Xiao Xiao's answer.
Although it is still inevitable to be a little disappointed.
Her clasped hands on her knees suddenly became a little harder.
...
Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes and glanced at the clenched hands of the woman opposite.
He looked out the window again, "However, the other party probably attacked without a target."
"No goal?"
The woman asked subconsciously.
"That is to say, you were poisoned because you were unlucky."
Xiao Xiao expressed his suspicion, "It's not that he was specifically targeted by the other party."
woman:......
Should she be sad that she is just a hapless person?
Or are you happy that the poisoner didn't target her?
...
Without waiting for the woman to make a choice, she took out the mobile phone in her pocket.
"Mr. Xiao Xiao, the car is ready, let's go out."
The woman put away her phone, stood up and said.
...
There was only a man with black-rimmed glasses at the door.
The short-haired woman and the crew-cut man have already left.
"Mr. Xiao Xiao, please get in the car."
The man with black-rimmed glasses opened the back seat door and extended his hand to bow.
Xiao Xiao got in the car.
"Xiao Zhao, get in the car and sit down quickly."
"Oh, I got it."
The woman sat in the back seat with Xiao Xiao.
...
"Everyone is here?"
The driver uncle opened his mouth to confirm.
"Well, we're all here."
The man with black-rimmed glasses in the passenger seat nodded, "Please drive."
"Okay, let's set off."
The uncle driver shouted, stepped on the accelerator and drove smoothly onto the street outside, and soon merged into the continuous flow of traffic.
...
The hometown of Gu Xiaozhao's friend is in a village in the mountains.
A little deeper than the suburbs.
It is a village with quite a bit of history.
The winding mountain highway was opened only a few years ago.
...
Outside the half-opened window, there was a howling sound of wind pouring into the car and wreaking havoc.
The people in the car had their hair disheveled by the wind, and they felt a little embarrassed for a while.
Gu Xiaozhao reached out and smoothed his hair, then raised the window until there was only a crack.
"It's such a strong wind."
She said with some emotion, "The wind here always seems to be very strong."
"It was also such a windy weather when I came here the day before yesterday."
