Hamoda, who had changed into casual clothes from Shengguo, was secretly monitoring the movement in front of the door.
An hour ago, Hamoda arrived at the gate of Jimo Mansion after asking for directions and making inquiries.
Hamoda had planned everything along the way, and he divided the whole thing into three steps.
The first step is to find the location of Jimo Mansion, and then set up a spot to monitor it;
The second step is to wait patiently for Jimo Qiao to go out, and then follow him quietly;
The third step is to follow him to a deserted place or a place with few people, then you can start kidnapping the person!
From the beginning to the end, Hamoda did not doubt that he had kidnapped Jimo Qiao. In his opinion, the other party was just a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old. Even if she knew some martial arts, she was not very powerful. Even if he only had
I can hit her with one hand, and I can easily subdue her.
Perhaps after waiting for a long time, Hamoda suddenly felt his mouth was dry and wanted to drink water.
When I turned around, I saw a tea stall nearby, but there happened to be no one at the stall.
Hamoda then walked to the tea stall, sat down at a table, and said, "Here comes a bowl of tea."
"Okay!" the stall owner shouted enthusiastically.
Because there were not many people on the street, the stall owner's shout immediately attracted the attention of passers-by. Hamoda suddenly felt a little uncomfortable because he felt as if he had been discovered by people passing by.
"Hey, can you please lower your voice?" Hamoda said angrily.
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry, sir, I scared you..." The stall owner apologized hastily.
Hamoda was unhappy when he heard this: "What are you talking about! Can you scare me? I just don't like your loud voice. Do you understand?"
The stall owner is a small businessman who values being friendly and making money. He did not dare to talk back, but nodded obediently, helped Hamoda clean the table, and brought a large bowl of tea with a smile.
"Sir, please use it slowly," the stall owner said enthusiastically.
Hamoda didn't say anything. He picked up the tea and sipped it, keeping his eyes fixed on the gate of Jimo Mansion.
After drinking half a bowl, Hamoda asked: "Boss, I want to ask you something..."
"Sir, please tell me." The stall owner immediately stopped what he was doing.
Hamoda looked at the gate of Jimo Mansion and asked, "When does the eldest lady of Jimo Mansion usually go out?"
The stall owner also looked at the gate of Jimo Mansion, thought for a while and said: "Sir, you have to ask me, this Miss Jimo often goes out, sometimes in the morning, sometimes at noon, sometimes in the afternoon.
....."
"Hey, hey, can you please stop talking nonsense?" Hamoda interrupted the stall owner upon hearing this.
The stall owner quickly apologized and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, sir, I am a bit talkative. Please bear with me, bear with me..."
Hamoda frowned and thought for a moment, then asked: "Let me ask you, did you see that Miss Jimo went out today?"
The stall owner thought about it carefully, shook his head and said: "From morning to now, I haven't seen Miss Jimo go out. Yes, she hasn't gone out..."
"Are you sure?" Hamoda asked.
The stall owner thought again, nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, I definitely didn't go out, sir, I'm sure!"
"Very good!" Hamoda nodded with satisfaction, took a few coins from his waist and threw them on the table: "These are for you."
"Thank you sir, thank you very much!"
The stall owner sold a bowl of tea for two copper coins. Now he got six or seven coins, and he was very happy immediately.
After putting away the coins, the stall owner found that Hamoda was still looking at the gate of Jimo Mansion, so he took the opportunity to refill the tea and said: "Sir, I am very familiar with the two servants of the Jimo family. If you want to
Ask Miss Jimo and I can send a message to you. Don’t worry, it doesn’t cost much..."
"Who said I wanted to see her?" Hamoda glared fiercely and immediately scared away the stall owner.
The stall owner stepped aside and secretly pouted: If you don't want to see her, what are you asking about?
In the following time, Hamoda drank the entire bowl of tea, but Jimo Qiao still didn't go out.
Just when Hamoda was hesitating whether to come back tomorrow, the door of Jimo Mansion suddenly opened, and a young woman in blue clothes and black gauze walked out.
Hamoda immediately tensed up his nerves, lowered his body and lowered his voice and asked: "Boss, boss, is this person the eldest lady of Jimo?"
The stall owner also followed Hamoda's example, lowered his voice and nodded: "That's right, sir, this is the eldest lady of the Jimo family!"
In fact, the stall owner knew that Lord Jimo now has two daughters, but the guest officer in front of him asked about the eldest lady, and he answered truthfully, but did not explain that there was a second lady who was a twin sister of the eldest lady.
Hamoda stared closely at Miss Jimo who was going out and going down the steps, and was secretly happy in her heart: It's better to come early than to come by chance. I was kept waiting for such a short time!
The person who went out wearing a black gauze was naturally a Yuan, but she didn't know it yet, but she had been identified as Jimo Qiao by Hamoda at the tea stall.
Yuanyuan has two things to do when he goes out at this time. The first is to go to a blacksmith shop in the next street. That shop has been making butterfly darts for Jimo Qiao for a long time. They have stock of them on weekdays. Whenever Jimo Qiao's darts are used up.
, there is a way to get it right.
The second thing is to buy roasted chestnuts for Jimo Qiao, but the roasted chestnut shop is a little far away, and you have to walk three streets to get there, so Yuanyuan plans to buy roasted chestnuts first, and then turn back to pick up the butterfly dart on the way back.
.
Yuan walked down the steps in front of the door and walked to the end of the street with light steps. When he passed the tea stall, he didn't seem to notice that someone was secretly watching him.
It wasn't until the kite was far away that Hamoda stood up and followed it cautiously.
The stall owner looked at Hamoda who was following him, and he had a lot of doubts in his heart. He secretly wondered what this person was doing by following Miss Jimo secretly? He couldn't be a bad person...
However, when I thought that one of this person's hands was injured, my worries immediately disappeared. After all, the two ladies of the Jimo family were very good at martial arts. How could they pose a threat to an injured person?
Forget it, if you have this free time to worry about others, you might as well spend your time selling more bowls of your own tea!
Thinking of this, the stall owner took back his thoughts and concentrated on starting the fire in the stove.
.............................
Hamoda followed "Jimo Qiao" for two streets. During this period, he kept a safe distance and was as unnoticed as possible.
When they reached the third street, Hamoda saw "Jimo Qiao" walking into a chestnut roasting shop.
Watching "Jimo Qiao" buy some roasted chestnuts with money, Hamoda couldn't help but secretly lamented that women are greedy.
"Jimo Qiao" finished buying the roasted chestnuts, then turned around and returned along the original road.
Upon seeing this, Hamoda hurriedly hid in a shop on the street. It was not until "Jimo Qiao" walked by that he came out and tried to follow him again.
Unexpectedly, Hamoda was stunned as soon as he left the store...
"Where is the person? Why is the person missing?"
Hamoda was a little confused. How could the person disappear in such a short period of time?
Hamoda didn't believe that he would be lost. He was very sure that he had not been discovered by the other party. He was thinking about which store "Jimo Qiao" should have entered nearby, so he started looking for it one by one along the street.
However, after searching for a while, Hamoda did not find "Jimo Qiao", and he couldn't help but feel annoyed and angry.
Hamoda was unwilling to give up and wondered if she might have gone back, so he immediately chased her along the way she came.
Halfway through the chase, Hamoda suddenly noticed a familiar flash of blue flashing around the corner ahead...
There!
Hamoda was immediately excited and quickly followed him without thinking, turning into a deserted alley.
