"She chose you because we know each other!" Zhao Lexi understood.

To get to the root of the matter, this family was targeted by that woman at first because of Zhou Baoxuan's special abilities, but later, it was because they had once interacted with my second brother and myself, and were considered semi-acquaintances.

Zhao Lexi's hatred for Zhou's mother lessened a little. Although her choice was indeed hateful, it was also pitiful, and she was even responsible for a third of it.

The most hateful person is that woman.

"If you tell me who that woman is, I can let go of what happened today." Zhao Lexi only said that she didn't care, and didn't represent others.

But Xue Hua followed up by saying, "Le Le's meaning is my meaning."

She remembered who this woman was. There was indeed no hatred between them. She also wanted to know who wanted to kill her. She didn't remember who she had offended.

"I don't know!" The woman shook her head. "I've only seen her, but I don't know her name or where she lives."

Gao Jue suddenly asked, "Does she know you're coming here today?"

"I don't know. I don't know if she knows."

Gao Jue thought for a moment and said, "She didn't set a time for you because she has a way of knowing when you will do this. Now that the monitoring equipment is no longer usable, she must have sent people to guard around your house or around the villa where we live."

"There are no new faces around us, and the residents have basically not changed," said Zhao Shikang.

"That's when someone is living around your house and watching you."

The woman was stunned by what she heard.

"You go back now, go back by yourself, and pretend that Pan Di is missing. Those people will definitely come out to contact you and confirm Xue Huan's situation. You don't have to say anything, just threaten them to help you find your daughter, and tell them the result of the mission after they find your daughter. As for us, stay indoors and see who comes to inquire about the situation. Whoever comes is with that woman. With both methods, we will definitely be able to force out that woman and her accomplices!"

The woman nodded blankly.

"Where do you live?"

"Northeast area, near the city wall, about a thousand meters from here."

Gao Jue looked at Zhao Shikang. Zhao Shikang understood what he meant and said, "You can go now. Pan Di will stay here first. As you can see, we have enough temperature, water and food here. We will not treat her badly."

"Here are yours." Zhao Lexi handed her two anesthetics. "If someone comes looking for you, just stab him quietly and then drag him back. Don't worry about anything else."

The woman took it in a daze.

Then he was pushed out of the door, and then he was pushed out of the courtyard door: "Go, go back and find your daughter!"

The wind and snow hit her face, cold and painful, and the woman sobered up a little. She knew that she had done something wrong and had to make amends. Fortunately, as she had heard, the people of the Gemini Mercenary Group had a bottom line, so she didn't have to worry about her daughter for the time being.

She used to get along very well with sister Lele, so she probably won’t be lonely.

The woman exhaled a breath of foul air. She almost lost her son and daughter at the same time! She exhaled a breath of foul air, and her heart was not as uneasy as when she came. The Gemini Mercenary Group was more reliable than the woman's promise. At least she didn't have to worry about her daughter's safety. If she cooperated well and really caught the woman, maybe she could rescue her son.

The woman thought so and walked back the way she came step by step with difficulty. The wind and snow covered all traces behind her.

Gao Jue asked Gao Xun: "How far can you hear now?"

"It's only about a hundred meters, and the sound of the wind and snow outside has too much impact on my hearing."

"Okay, then we'll just listen to the sounds around the villa to see if those people will come over to check on the situation. As for Pan Di's mother, we'll have to let her handle the situation on her own."

Zhao Lexi saw Zhou's mother off and turned back to look at Zhou Pandi.

Zhou Pandi looked back at her somewhat awkwardly.

"Pandi, have you ever played mahjong?"

Zhou Pandi: "...I played it before during the Chinese New Year!"

"Good! We are short of two now!"

"Sister Xiaojun..."

Shangguan Wei immediately glared at him fiercely, and Zhao Lexi waved her hands hastily: "Okay, okay, prenatal education, prenatal education, you can't play this, I know, I know!"

The purchased upgrade potions have been used up, and everyone is absorbing the upgrade potions configured by Gao Jue. They are of a higher level than those configured at the base and can be absorbed by level 2 and 3 evolvers, including Meng Qinghong.

The only ones who were idle were Yin Zhiguang and Kang Lei.

Nine-year-old Yin Zhiguang can barely be counted as one, but Kang Lei is too young, only six years old and not yet in primary school.

But Kang Lei matured more precociously than other children. Seeing the gloom on Zhao Lexi's face, he said, "Sister Lele, I have learned it too. I can play mahjong with you."

Zhao Shiduan shook his head and said, "You didn't even let such a young child go."

Zhao Lexi snorted coldly, set up the table and started working!

Time passed quickly. In the evening, Gao Xun said, "There was a man who walked around our villa several times in the afternoon. Now he's gone."

Gao Jue smiled: "As long as Pan Di's mother doesn't give in, he will come again tomorrow. Then, we can have a chance encounter."

"How did we meet?" Zhao Lexi asked curiously.

Gao Jue smiled and said, "We're having buns tonight. Li Hong has already gone to make the dough. We'll make them with dried mushroom and meat filling."

"Really! I smell the aroma of mushrooms, it smells so good!" Zhao Lexi was immediately distracted, her mind drifted to the kitchen, and she forgot what she had just asked Gao Jue.

Everyone...

Zhao Shikang held a level three energy crystal in his hand without opening his eyes. He knew that his sister had not forgotten, but she knew that Gao Jue did not want to say it and just let it go. Gao Jue, that shrewd man, might not be unaware of it.

Really, there is no outsider here, why are you playing dumb?

Before five o'clock, Zhao Shiyun and his companion came back. Li Hong just opened the lid of the pot and saw the plump white buns lying in the steamer, looking very adorable.

After eating the buns, Zhao Shikang recounted what happened today.

Zhao Shiyun was silent for a while, then talked about something else: "After Zhou Jian was arrested, the government had two different opinions on the outcome of his trial."

Zhao Lexi thought to herself that the Zhou family had a close relationship with Sister Xue.

Xue Huan also looked towards Zhao Shiyun, her eyes filled with confusion and fragility, which made Xingfu and Wang Weihui feel distressed.

"One is execution! Everyone hates the Shian Company very much, and so many evolved people died on the day the monsters attacked the city, so they think he deserves to die, and his death is not a pity. Another view is that the deceased is gone, and Zhou Jian has made a lot of contributions to the base, so his merits can be used to offset his mistakes, so let him live and continue to contribute to the base."

"How can they let such a person live!" Zhao Lexi said in amazement, "They must be Zhou Jian's accomplices!"

Zhao Shiyun smiled: "That's not the case, but I can guess what those old guys are thinking. Most of them have dirty hands. If Zhou Jian doesn't have to die today, then if one day their affairs are dug up, they won't have to die because of Zhou Jian's affairs!"
