Mr. Policeman, Will You Protect Me? (3)
“Where is it?”
Jiang Xiaoman pointed to the place she usually used to hide the iron box and said, “Over there. You just need to lift the tiles.”
Hong Xingguo fumbled inside and found a tile that was different from the others. It wasn’t glued in and could be easily pried open.
A child’s strength wasn’t much, so naturally the hole they dug would not be very deep. Sure enough, he soon managed to dig his way to an iron box.
He was happy and immediately dug harder, and soon managed to dig it out.
His hands brushed away the soil covering the top, and he happily said, “Is this it, stinky girl?”
Excited, he wanted to open it.
Jiang Xiaoman responded cheerfully, “Yes, all my treasures are in it!!”
Then with a click, Hong Xingguo opened the box.
At the same time, Jiang Xiaoman also closed the pen fence and clicked down the lock.
It was usually used to keep Fragrance caged inside.
She was very unhappy when Uncle was going to install the lock; she felt that the pig was very behaved and would not run around.
But that was just what she thought. Grandma said that not only should they install a fence, but it should also be thickened and reinforced.
Hehe, it actually ended up helping her unexpectedly!
Jiang Xiaoman ran away.
Hong Xingguo opened the box and saw that other than some weirdly shaped stones, there was only a one hundred yuan bill!
He was very angry and looked back… Damn, where is Jiang Xiaoman?
Where did she go??
Jiang Xiaoman only left Hong Xingguo with a shadow of her back running away happily.
Hong Xingguo finally realized that he had been deceived and wanted to rush out, but he couldn’t break through the fence of Fragrance’s villa.
He was furious and cursed at Jiang Xiaoman’s departing figure.
Jiang Xiaoman ran to the door, turned around and made an ugly face at him.
“Kekeke, scream all you want. No one will come to rescue you even if you scream until your throat is sore.”
There were not that many people who live here anyway. Even if there was, they would be home for the New Year right now.
Jiang Xiaoman ran to the canteen where she often made calls from.
She used to come there to make a phone call every day, and the owner was familiar with her.
Seeing the child, the owner was taken aback.
It was New Year’s Eve, so why was this girl here?
If it wasn’t because he had nothing to do at home, he wouldn’t have wanted to come here and open up shop. Who else would go to this street at this time?
The owner looked at her and waited to see if she wanted to buy something or make a phone call, but the child didn’t speak for a while. It seemed that there was something that was hard for her to say.
They looked at each other for a long time, and Xiaoman finally gathered enough courage to speak up.
When she opened her mouth, tears started falling before she could say anything.
She was so miserable. The owner would help her, right?
Jiang Xiaoman shed some tears and pouted, crying, “Mr. Boss, can I make a call? I haven’t brought any money today, but when Uncle comes back, I’ll surely have him make it up to you.”
The owner was naturally fine with it. Every time the child made a phone call, she only used one or two minutes. It was fine even if she didn’t pay.
Everyone was already familiar with each other, they could already be considered half-neighbors.
Besides, the child was crying so much. It seemed that something had happened.
She usually smiled so sweetly, and the owner felt his heart ache just from looking at her.
Jiang Xiaoman thanked him obediently, then picked up the phone and dialed the numbers very firmly: 1101.
Her tears kept falling, and soon her face was streaked with tear marks. She looked very pitiful.
“Hello, Mr. Policeman?”
“I was abducted by a kidnapper, wuu wuu wuu… I am so miserable, I almost couldn’t make it back.”
“He wants to sell me for money. He’s evil, very bad. He won’t even give me food…Will you protect me?”
The boss who heard it was shocked and was instantly filled with cold sweat.
It didn’t take long for the sound of police sirens to ring from a nearby street.
