"Who are you?" Zhou Zichen and Xiaohua fought together, staring at the four people in front of them and said.
"You don't need to know who we are, you just need to know that if you continue to investigate the Zhou family's affairs, we will continue to hunt you down!"
The killer leader had a mask on his face. Zhou Zichen couldn't see his expression, but Zhou Zichen could imagine it.
"Zhou family... who sent you here?!" Zhou Zichen suddenly stood up and kicked towards the killer leader.
But what Zhou Zichen didn't expect was that this man reacted very quickly. Instead of getting entangled with Zhou Zichen, he wanted to leave just like that!
But Xiaohua on the side kept staring at him, and of course she would not let him escape easily. When they chose to retreat, Xiaohua found an empty beer bottle from the table next to him, smashed it and threw it forward.
"ah!"
Before a killer had time to dodge, he was hit by a beer bottle in the leg and fell to the ground.
Just when Zhou Zichen was about to chase after him, he suddenly heard the sound of police sirens around him. This was a provincial capital after all, and someone had already called the police for such a big movement just now.
Zhou Zichen was slightly stunned. He didn't know why the police came so quickly. But at the moment when Zhou Zichen was slightly stunned, the previous killer leader directly wiped the neck of the killer on the ground!
Maybe the killer himself never thought that he would die in the hands of his own people.
When the blood started to surge, Zhou Zichen's heartbeat slowed down by half a beat. Are these killers so cold-blooded? And it seems that they are extremely skilled in their techniques and are so cruel to their own people. Who are they?
"Let's go!" Xiaohua looked anxiously at Zhou Zichen who looked dazed and shouted. Seeing that Zhou Zichen hadn't moved for a long time, she simply pulled Zhou Zichen and ran towards the back door.
Wang Ziqi and Zhou Heng followed closely behind, and the four of them started to escape from the back door. Zhou Heng was quite familiar with the area, and he led everyone to escape from the area.
"I'll go...it's too scary. Who are they?" Zhou Heng still has lingering fears. The micro-flush he saw on TV actually rang in his ears. He even saw a person wipe his other cheek with his own eyes.
A person's neck, what happened to this world?
"Killer." Xiaohua replied coldly from the side.
"Zichen, are you okay?" Wang Ziqi patted Zhou Zichen's face, which was a little distracted. Zhou Zichen was like this when he first came out, and he is still like this now.
"I'll do it!"
Xiaohua stopped Wang Ziqi and slapped Zhou Zichen hard on the face.
Zhou Zichen was woken up by this slap and looked around with some confusion: "Why did we end up here?"
"What did you just do? You scared me to death!" Wang Ziqi almost cried. She thought Zhou Zichen was stupid when she saw him like that just now.
"I'm fine. I was just too obsessed with my thoughts..." Zhou Zichen shook his head. He didn't know why he was absent-minded just now. He didn't even know how he got here.
Fortunately, several people finally escaped safely, but why did Zhou Zichen feel that his face hurt so much?
"Look at my face. Did someone accidentally hit me just now?" Zhou Zichen put his face close to Wang Ziqi's and asked her to see what happened to his face.
"It's nothing. I'm probably freezing. It's okay. We'll be at Zhou Heng's house soon..." Wang Ziqi didn't dare to tell Xiaohua about slapping Zhou Zichen, otherwise Zhou Zichen, a face-conscious person, would probably cry to death.
But while Wang Ziqi comforted Zhou Zichen, she also gave Xiaohua a thumbs up. When Xiaohua saw this, a knowing smile appeared on her face...
The four of them arrived at Zhou Heng's home. As expected, as Zhou Heng said, this place was indeed too simple, but Zhou Zichen was very satisfied with having a bed to sleep on. It was much better than not being able to sleep well last night.
.
When Xiaohua entered the community, she stayed around for a while and found no suspicious people. Then she returned to Zhou Heng's home.
"Don't worry, I just went around a lot, they won't notice." Seeing Xiaohua coming back, Zhou Heng handed her the cup filled with hot water.
Xiaohua said nothing, took the cup and sat aside.
Zhou Heng said that this house was left by his former father-in-law, and he didn't take it seriously at the time. Only when he was actually being hunted did he think of this house, so this was where he hid.
"Hey... I hope I can sleep peacefully tonight..." Zhou Zichen sighed. Although he was a little depressed by what happened to the killers just now, aren't they now safe again?
"Zhou Zichen, come back with me early tomorrow morning!" Wang Ziqi sat next to Zhou Zichen and said without doubt.
She didn't know how thrilling it was just now. She would never let Zhou Zichen stay here any longer. It was too dangerous here.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Zichen smiled guiltily. What he was most afraid of was that Wang Ziqi asked him to go back with him.
"What do you think? Could those people be simple killers? Don't you know why the killer leader killed the injured person? Isn't it because he didn't want people to find out the information? Then what kind of power are the people behind them?
Did they get to this point?"
Wang Ziqi's series of questions made Zhou Zichen a little irritable. Of course he knew that it was not easy to put down the killer, and he also knew that he was here for him.
However, the more the other party asked Zhou Zichen not to investigate the Zhou family's affairs, the more Zhou Zichen felt that this matter was not simple, and the more Zhou Zichen wanted to find out.
"I'm sorry, I can't listen to you on this matter!" Zhou Zichen rejected Wang Ziqi. Of course, he would not let Wang Ziqi stay here. It would be best for everyone to leave and he would investigate alone.
But he also knew that this was impossible. How could one person be as powerful as everyone else? Zhou Zichen was powerful, but he also knew that his own power was limited.
"Why? It's already so dangerous, and you still want to continue investigating?"
Wang Ziqi really couldn't understand Zhou Zichen, why he had to investigate. The other party had obviously sent a killer, which meant that the other party knew about Zhou Zichen's existence and knew that Zhou Zichen was investigating the Zhou family's affairs, but Zhou Zichen is still
I’m so confused and don’t know anything!
"For the sake of the truth... forget it, you go back first. We don't have enough money. The fewer people who know my whereabouts, the better. I can only trust you. You go back and prepare some funds for me."
Zhou Zichen didn't want to explain anything to Wang Ziqi. He knew that Wang Ziqi was worried about him, so he wouldn't argue with Wang Ziqi. He just hoped that she would listen to him.
Seeing that Zhou Zichen still refused to go back, Wang Ziqi couldn't help feeling a little angry, so she took Xiaohua and went back to the room to sleep.
Although this house is a bit small, it still has two bedrooms, which is enough to sleep four people.
Zhou Zichen sat on the sofa and smiled bitterly. Wang Ziqi couldn't understand him, and he wouldn't blame her. He just thought it was his own willfulness.
"What were you arguing about just now?" Zhou Hengcai had just come out of the bathroom. He heard the quarrel between Zhou Zichen and Wang Ziqi. The soundproofing of this room was not that good at all. He just didn't want Zhou Zichen to think that he was eavesdropping on purpose.
"Okay, stop pretending, it's as if this broken door isn't there... Do you think I should continue?"
Zhou Zichen was speechless for a while. The argument he had just made with Wang Ziqi was so loud that it would be strange if Zhou Heng didn't hear it.
"Hehe..." Zhou Heng touched his head in embarrassment, and then sat opposite Zhou Zichen.
"I think the investigations you have done are pretty good. You see, I have no father or mother, so I don't even know where to start my investigation..."
Zhou Heng glanced at Zhou Zichen helplessly. He had not thought about investigating, but his life experience was always a mystery and there were no clues at all.
Zhou Zichen glanced at Zhou Heng unexpectedly. Sure enough, there were more common topics among people who had the same experience.
"Well, you will find it too, for sure."
Zhou Zichen felt a sense of intimacy when he saw Zhou Heng. He didn't know if it was due to his own psychology, but when he felt intimacy, it was not when he learned that Zhou Heng's surname was Zhou, but when he met him for the first time.
When "Yan Heng hits porcelain".
Zhou Heng glanced at Zhou Zichen gratefully, and then he and Zhou Zichen slept on the sofa. There were only two sleeping rooms in the house, which could be used as bedrooms. The sofa outside was also quite comfortable.
Zhou Zichen lay in bed at night and didn't know what he was thinking about. When he closed his eyes, he would think of the panicked look in the old lady's eyes, the burned-down Zhou family's old house, and the cold eyes of the killer...
Zhou Zichen finally had a peaceful night's sleep. When he got up the next day, Zhou Zichen looked at the time and it was already nine o'clock. When he saw that the bedroom door was open, the people inside were long gone.
"Wang Ziqi? Xiaohua?" Zhou Zichen called out the names of the two girls, but no one responded. Zhou Zichen looked around every corner and found no sign of them. Even Zhou Heng was missing.
Just when Zhou Zichen was about to make a call, there was a sound of opening the door, and Zhou Heng came back from outside.
"Where are the two of them?" Zhou Zichen asked quickly. He didn't even know why he slept so late last night.
"We went to the station. I put them in a taxi and came back." Zhou Heng replied.
"Station?" Zhou Zichen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the quarrel between himself and Wang Ziqi last night. It was indeed a bit excessive for a grown man to make Wang Ziqi unhappy.
After Zhou Zichen thought about it again and again, he still thought it would be more appropriate to call Wang Ziqi.
"beep……"
Zhou Zichen took out his cell phone and called Wang Ziqi. After two rings, Wang Ziqi picked up.
"What are you doing?" As soon as the call was connected, Wang Ziqi's somewhat aggrieved voice was heard.
"Why did you go back? Didn't you plan to go back?" Zhou Zichen was a little embarrassed, but now he could only bite the bullet and say it.
"You care about me?!" Wang Ziqi said loudly, and Zhou Zichen could feel her anger...
"Hey, don't be angry, okay? I will definitely stay with you after I go back, okay? You and Xiaohua have a good trip, remember..."
Zhou Zichen could feel Wang Ziqi's displeasure through the screen, so now it was up to him to remedy whatever he could...
"Who said I was leaving with Xiaohua? Xiaohua was afraid that I would not be safe alone and came to see me off. She would have to go back later, unlike some people who sleep like pigs!"
Wang Ziqi gritted her teeth and said to Zhou Zichen, she planned to keep Xiaohua here, but she couldn't leave Zhou Zichen without anyone around her, right? Then who would be responsible if something goes wrong?
