Huali stopped, seeming hesitant. Seeing this, Jida scratched his head and said.
"It's okay. I won't tell you if it's inconvenient. You saved me just now. I see that you are not very old. In this way, from now on, you will be my sister in Jida. I still have some respect around here."
Jida spoke in a loud voice. In fact, he was speaking to the people present. He was afraid that someone would do something to Huali secretly.
Jiang Li did not expect Jida to be so enthusiastic. To be honest, this personality is not suitable for making a life here.
However, Jiang Li had a good impression of this person he just met. What people like them lack most is human touch, which happened to be Jida. What's more, Jiang Li also wanted to sneak into Maika's team through Jida.
"Thank you. I have been living in South America before. This time I came back to visit my cousin."
Hearing what Huali said, Jida was stunned for a moment. Suddenly he remembered the industry in a certain country in South America, and he understood why Huali was so skilled. It was a place ten times more chaotic than Mile City.
The scarred man also thought of that place, and couldn't help but look at Jiang Li again. Not sure what he was thinking, he touched the two beards on his chin.
After Jiang Li finished speaking, she didn't stay long, but walked out of the square. She was already very popular today, and all that was left was to wait for the fish to take the bait. She believed that these people would not remain indifferent to what she had done today.
Seeing Jiang Li walking away, the lean man approached the scarred man and asked in a low voice.
"Boss, just let this bitch leave like this?"
The scarred man's eyes narrowed, and the lean man immediately shrank his head, thought for a while, and then said something.
"Boss, the sand embankment is broken. We don't have enough manpower for the operation the day after tomorrow?"
"What do you mean?"
The scarred man had already guessed what the lean man was thinking, but he didn't reveal it.
The lean man looked at the direction Jiang Li left and said.
"Boss, this woman is pretty good. Her skills are definitely more powerful than the four King Kongs around Dunan. Hasn't the big boss always wanted to recruit people? Isn't there a candidate right in front of her?"
When the lean man said this, the scarred man touched his beard again, but then shook his head.
"No, I don't know my identity. If I mess up the boss's affairs, all of us will be ruined."
"Boss, we can investigate clearly first. Such a powerful person cannot be an unknown person. In this way, I will contact South America soon and let them check it out."
The lean man said with an acknowledgment of credit, looking like he had worked hard to make suggestions for the scarred man.
The scarred man didn't hesitate much this time. He thought for a moment and then nodded.
"Okay, go check it out quickly. If there is no problem, you can indeed recommend it to the boss, which will also destroy the madman's prestige."
"Yes, boss Yingming, I'll go check it out right now."
With that said, the lean man also left the square. The scarred man didn't care about other things, but called Jida to his side. He didn't know what he said, and Jida left with excitement on his face.
Here, Jiang Li returned to Grandpa Hua's residence after leaving. As for the lean man investigating her, she expected all of this.
In a place like this, whenever a stranger appears, they will investigate you thoroughly.
Before Jiang Li came, An Ruohua had already created a flawless identity for her. Unless someone went to South America to conduct on-the-spot investigations, there would definitely be no problem with Jiang Li's identity.
Just before Jiang Li returned to Grandpa Hua's residence and had no time to take a sip of water, there was a knock on the courtyard door. Jiang Li put down his cup, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and walked out immediately.
Opening the door, as expected, Jeddah appeared at the door.
Judging from the looks of it, Jida must be a stranger, or Jiang Li may have saved him. Jida didn't have the slightest defense against Jiang Li.
"Huali, come to my place later and I'll get you some game to try."
Jida said familiarly, Jiang Li pretended to be polite and refused.
"No, I can just eat whatever I want."
"No, you are my savior. Don't be polite to me. If you don't come, you will look down on me as your brother."
While talking, Jida had already walked into the courtyard, and Jiang Li didn't stop him. Anyway, there was nothing that he couldn't see in Grandpa Hua's residence.
Jida came to the door and saw a folded blanket on the sofa in the room with a pillow beside it, and then looked at the house again.
There are two rooms inside and outside. The outside is the living room and dining room connected together. The inside should be the bedroom. Even the toilet is a very primitive open-air toilet.
Jida immediately frowned and said.
"Sister, you slept on the sofa last night?"
Jiang Li nodded and said.
"Well, Grandpa Hua doesn't have an extra bed here. I came too suddenly, so I just slept on the sofa."
"How about that? You can stay at my place tonight."
Jida said carelessly. As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that his words might be misunderstood, so he explained again.
"Don't worry, I don't mean anything else. I have a big place and many rooms, so you don't have to squeeze into this small sofa."
"No, it's quite nice here. When I was in South America, I often ate and slept in the open, so I'm used to it."
Jiang Li pretended to say casually. After hearing this, Jida suddenly became curious and asked.
"Sister, why are you sleeping in the open air?"
"Hey, you desperate man, do you still want to stay in a hotel or a villa?"
"Yes, it's almost the same as us. Let's not talk about this. Let's go to my brother's place. I'll have someone notify Old Man Hua later."
With that said, Jida had already pulled Jiang Li out.
Jiang Li did not refuse this time. Her purpose was to get into this group of people, then find an opportunity to get close to Maika, and finally get into Du Nan's team.
Jeddah and the others live not far from this village. The houses here are obviously much more luxurious than those in the village. They are basically two-story buildings. They cannot be said to be luxurious, but at least they have more complete facilities than those in the village.
"Boss!"
Along the way, people were greeting Jeddah. There are seven or eight houses here, and one of them, a three-story building, has the most luxurious appearance among them.
Jeddah's house is just next to the three-story building, and further outside is where Jeddah's men live.
Entering the building, Jida took Jiang Li directly to the second floor.
"You live in this room. I usually live alone on this floor. My room is over there."
Jida pointed to the room some distance away from this room and said.
Jiang Li glanced at the room. It was quite clean. It looked like no one had lived in it for a long time. The most important thing was that it had a separate bathroom.
"Brother Jeddah, do you live in such a big house alone?"
Jiang Li also asked curiously. Unexpectedly, after asking such a question, Jida's face changed slightly and his eyes darkened slightly.
Jiang Li noticed something amiss in Jida, and then spoke.
"Sorry, I just asked casually, you don't have to say anything."
"It's okay. I used to have a sister, a biological sister, who was five years younger than me. She left a few years ago."
At this point, the room fell silent, and Jiang Li did not expect that this rough-looking and somewhat fierce man would have such a story.
At this time, Jida spoke again, walked to the window of the room, opened the window for ventilation, and said.
"Four years ago, my sister got sick. In fact, the disease was not fatal, as long as regular treatment was needed, but the medicine was too expensive, costing one thousand US dollars a month. I was a boxer at the time and had no money at all. In the end
, my sister left three months after she stopped taking the medicine."
Having said this, Jida sat on a chair by the window, touched the dressing table in front of her, and suddenly said quietly without knowing what she was thinking.
"My sister has never lived in this room for a day. She always wanted to have a room of her own, but she never realized it until her death."
After listening to Jida's story, Jiang Li didn't know what to say for a while.
In Mailai City, there are many people like Jeddah. Not all those who take this road are heinous people. Many people just want to have a mouthful of food to survive.
Jida realized that she had made the atmosphere tense, stood up from the chair, scratched her head in embarrassment, looked at Jiang Li, and said.
"Sorry, it has affected your mood. You should rest first and treat this place as your own home."
Speaking of this, Jida seemed to have thought of something and reminded him again.
"Oh, by the way, there will be people coming here in the past two days. You'd better not wander around, especially the small building next to it. Don't get close."
Jiang Li listened, nodded obediently, and said.
"Don't worry, I know all this. Curiosity killed the cat, and I don't want to be that cat."
Hearing what Jiang Li said, Jida smiled and replied.
"Haha, smart man, I'll go out first."
After that, Jida walked out of the room. Jiang Li closed the door and looked around the room again.
The area is not big, but it is much better than Grandpa Hua’s place.
The furnishings in the room are very simple, including a 1.5-meter bed, a wardrobe, a dressing table by the window, and two chairs, but these are already very good conditions for the farmers in this village.
.
Just like Grandpa Hua's house, the bed in the bedroom is actually just a board placed on two benches.
The sofa Jiang Li slept on last night was also of a narrow style that had been eliminated long ago. It was probably bought from the second-hand market.
Jiang Li stood by the window, and then her eyes lit up. She found that the location of this room was very good.
Standing by the window, you can just see the courtyard of the three-story building next to you. Although you can't see clearly what's going on inside, the scene in the courtyard is very clear.
Jiang Li raised his lips slightly. This was a good gain. However, how to enter the team of these people next gave Jiang Li a headache.
Although Jida brought her here, judging from Jida's attitude just now, it is obvious that he does not want her to inquire more about their affairs. It seems that now he can only wait for the opportunity.
Jiang Li didn't think that his performance in the square today would leave these people indifferent. Now he was just waiting for the fish to take the bait.
