Chapter 493 Reasoning Notes 10: Mermaid Tears (35)
"Xiaorou. Why did you run out?" Ji Hongwei ran over and said angrily, but a big stone in his heart fell to the ground.

"Father!" Ji Xiaorou jumped off the swing when she saw her father's figure.

"I was scared to death. Why did you come here without saying a word?" Ji Hongwei let out a long sigh of relief.

But Ji Xiaorou told him, "A strange person brought me here."

"What?" Ji Hongwei's relaxed heart immediately became vigilant again.

wack?What weirdo?

Ji Xiaorou said that she was doing homework in the room just now when the doorbell rang.A strange guy appeared at the door.It wears a hat and a mask, only showing a pair of eyes.It told Ji Xiaorou that her father Ji Hongwei asked it to pick her up.At that time, Ji Xiaorou also became suspicious of this person's identity, after all, this person's attire looked very suspicious.However, the man said one thing, but he had to make her believe it.

"Did you find a necklace?" said the strange man.

How did this man know about it?Ji Xiaorou was very confused.It should be said that only she, Dad, and Tian Yena knew about this matter.

The weird man said: "Your father told me. He said that bad guys are coming to your house. I'm afraid they will harm you, so I asked me to take you to hide for a while."

Hearing what the weird man said, Ji Xiaorou began to believe it.

The weird man also said that it would not kidnap and sell her.Just take her to a nearby square to hide, as long as she doesn't hide at home.

Since it's a square and it's still in broad daylight, Ji Xiaorou doesn't worry anymore.She would tear out her throat and yell if the weirdo tried to do anything wrong.

So, Ji Xiaorou followed the weird man to the Children's Paradise not far from home.Sure enough, the weirdo didn't do her any harm, but let her stay here and wait for her father to come, and then it left.Ji Xiaorou waited for more than an hour, until the figure of her father ran over from a distance...

"Don't leave home with strangers in the future. Do you know?" Ji Hongwei felt that there was something wrong with this strange man, but he didn't say it clearly, fearing that his daughter would worry.

"Hmm..." Ji Xiaorou vaguely felt that she had caused trouble, so she pursed her lips and remained silent.

"By the way. Is that mermaid tear still there?" Ji Hongwei asked nervously when he suddenly thought of this.He thought, the goal of that weird man is to steal the Mermaid Tears!

However, Ji Xiaorou said that from the beginning to the end, that weird person had never touched the box of Mermaid Tears.

This is strange... Ji Hongwei took the box, opened it, and saw Mermaid Tears lying quietly in the box.

What is the purpose of that weirdo?Ji Hongwei still couldn't figure it out.

No matter what, he always felt that this home was not safe anymore.The appearance of the weirdo suddenly tensed his nerves. As I said before, he would never let this matter involve his daughter.Therefore, he decided to take his daughter and move away overnight.After dinner, after Tian Yena left, he didn't even say hello to Tian Yena, he just packed up some clothes, carried his luggage, and hurriedly left the house with Ji Xiaorou.

He planned to find a hotel to live in first.

It was late at night.There was silence all around.

The leaves are slowly falling from the air in the wind.The sound of luggage being dragged continued to ring in the deep sea-like night.

Ji Hongwei took his daughter's hand and walked under the quiet night.The lights of the street lamp superimposed the figures of the father and daughter on the ground.

Just when the two of them walked to a remote side of the road, suddenly——

"Hee hee." There was a strange sound coming from under the lamppost. The sound was like the sound of a chainsaw or hissing. It was particularly frightening in this silent night.

Ji Hongwei froze while holding Ji Xiaorou's hand, paused for a moment, and turned back little by little.His heartbeat couldn't help but increase, and his stiff neck cracked when he turned it.

I saw a figure hiding there, but he didn't show up.

Ji Hongwei stared at the black shadow, hugged Ji Xiaorou tightly, and asked calmly, "You... who are you?"

The black shadow lowered its body slightly, but it didn't expose itself in front of the two of them, but its slightly mocking and indifferent voice could be clearly heard. "Hee hee! If you get Mermaid Tears, you will die."

Ji Hongwei's heart was lifted instantly.Who is this guy?How does it know the existence of Mermaid Tears? !

Ji Xiaorou clenched her father's hand and hugged his waist in fear.

"Dad. I'm afraid." Her voice was rustling, revealing the panic in her heart.

Ji Hongwei held his daughter tightly in his arms.He looked up at the black shadow, gritted his teeth, and asked, "Are you the weirdo today? Are you the Shadow Stranger?" He immediately thought of the weirdo who abducted his daughter out of the door today.

However, the other party raised his hand, tapped the beat lightly, shook his head and said, "No, I am the Earl."

Its voice seemed gentle and casual, but every word it said seemed to hit Ji Hongwei's heart, making him almost unable to breathe.

count?Who is this character? !
However, the visitor is not good.Ji Hongwei felt a wave of despair, he clenched his fists, looked down at his ignorant daughter, his eyes turned red instantly.If the black shadow in front of him came with malice, then... he looked up at the black shadow and choked up, "Please don't kill my daughter, she is still young."

If you want to kill, just kill me alone.

Unexpectedly, the black shadow just laughed in a low voice.After laughing, it opened its mouth and said: "Hehe, this is not allowed, you all have to die, unless..."

When Ji Hongwei heard that there was a turning point, he quickly asked the black shadow, "Unless what?"

Everyone wants to live, and he is no exception.He wants to live!

As if Hei Ying knew it a long time ago, he sneered in a low voice, and said to Ji Hongwei: "Be obedient, just listen to me."

The place where the transaction was agreed upon with the buyer, Mr. Wang, was in a high-end western restaurant in Lujiazui, Shanghai.

Ji Hongwei came to this western restaurant ahead of time.The other party has reserved a seat.After sitting down, Ji Hongwei kept holding the wooden box nervously, his palms were sweating.Thinking of the conversation with the earl last night, Ji Hongwei still couldn't calm down.He didn't understand why the Earl would make such a request.However, he had to do what it said, otherwise, his daughter would be in danger.

Perhaps, the Earl took a fancy to his weakness, so he used his daughter to threaten him.

Never let your daughter get hurt.Ji Hongwei thought in his heart.This was his only family member in this world, and he tried his best to protect her.It is a fatherly responsibility.

Just as he was thinking, suddenly, a figure appeared beside him.

"Mr. Liu, you are here." Ji Hongwei looked up, and the person who spoke was the previous buyer, Mr. Wang.

"I'm not late, am I?" Mr. Wang looked at his watch, and it was still 5 minutes away from the agreed time.

Ji Hongwei shook his head, "It's just that I arrived early."

Mr. Wang sat across from him and pushed his myopia glasses: "Then, according to the previous agreement, please hand over Mermaid Tears for me to verify."

Ji Hongwei did not take out the box, but stared at Mr. Wang: "You are not the real buyer. Tell me, who sent you here?"

Mr. Wang was a little surprised by his words: "Mr. Ji, why do you think so?!"

Mr. Ji said: "I don't have time to talk to you. If the real buyer refuses to show up, the deal will be void." Another voice came from the seat: "Please wait a moment."

A guest who was sitting at a table not far away stood up and walked slowly towards this side.There was a gentle smile on his face, a white shirt and a pair of extra-casual trousers, extremely clean and harmless.

This is the real buyer.Ji Hongwei stared at the young man in a white shirt and slacks. He walked over and stretched out his hand: "Hello, my name is Bai Chun."

Ji Hongwei greeted his hand hesitantly: "Hi, my name is Liu."

"No." Bai Chun smiled slightly, quite playfully: "Your surname is not Liu. Your surname is Ji."

Ji Hongwei was taken aback suddenly, staring at this handsome man in disbelief, "You..."

How do you know my real identity?

It seems that Ji Hongwei still underestimated his buyer.I thought I was hiding it well, but the other party easily found out his identity, which made Ji Hongwei feel a chill in his heart.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ji." Bai Chun's smile made people feel that there was no malice, but a sense of intimacy.

"Please sit down." Bai Chun politely asked Ji Hongwei to sit down, and then he and Mr. Wang sat on the other side.

Who are these people?With doubts, Ji Hongwei sat down anxiously.He understood that even if he escaped now, it would be meaningless.Since this person named Bai Chun can find out his identity, it is not difficult to find him.On the other hand, he cannot disobey the earl's orders.

In short, he must stay and complete this deal.

Huh... Not knowing what the future holds, Ji Hongwei felt like sitting on pins and needles, with a layer of cold sweat oozing from his back.

"Don't be nervous." Bai Chun still comforted him with kind words, he could see that Ji Hongwei's expression was really disturbed.

"We are not bad guys." Bai Chun said, and introduced himself and Mr. Wang's identities, "We are detectives. This is my assistant, and his name is Wang Zegang."

"Detective?" Ji Hongwei was taken aback when he heard this term.

But the detective sounds more reassuring.

"Yes." Bai Chun said, "To be precise, I'm not a detective, but I have a close relationship with the police. I specialize in helping the police solve cases. I'm a professor of physics."
