I'm a cannon fodder, but I'm actually a heartthrob
Chapter 159: Transmigrated into the Cannon Fodder Junior Brother of the Protagonist 9
When it was daybreak, Xiao Huai asked Zaoqi to take Rong Jin to look for the Chang family to see if they could find some useful clues.
Xiao Huairang got up early on purpose to avoid the two annoying guys Shen Yu and Chen Zhuo. However, before Xiao Huairang could even walk out of the door of the inn, the two guys caught up with him like a dog-skin plaster.
Chen Zhuo came up to Rong Jin and said, "Brother Shen, you got up so early."
Having slept late last night, and now being woken up so early by Xiao Huai, Rong Jin said listlessly, "I don't want to either."
Xiao Huairang put his arm on Rong Jin's shoulder: "Rongrong, the early bird catches the worm."
Rong Jin smiled perfunctorily.
He is not a bird, so he can't eat any bugs.
Seeing that Rong Jin was still listless, Xiao Huairang stuffed a pill into his mouth.
Rong Jin wanted to spit it out, but he felt that the pill tasted sweet, so he didn't spit it out. He swallowed it and asked, "Xiao Huairang, what did you put in my mouth?"
Xiao Huairang knocked his head and said, "You are disrespectful. Call me Brother Xiao."
"Tell me what you put in my mouth first!"
Xiao Huairang: "Awakening Pill, isn't Rongrong listless?"
After taking the pill, Rong Jin was indeed not as sleepy as before.
"Thank you, senior brother." Rong Jin called him senior brother obediently and no longer called him by his name.
Seeing them being so intimate without caring about others, Chen Zhuo and Shen Yu were very angry.
The damn Xiao Huairang, who was guarding Yinqing Peak like a watchdog, caused them to see Rong Jin very rarely, so they had to find another way.
No one knew what Xiao Huairang had said to Rong Jin, but every time Rong Jin saw them he tried to avoid them as much as possible.
The two men simultaneously decided to kill.
Killing Xiao Huairang was as easy as crushing an ant.
But...the two looked at each other and then turned their heads away in annoyance.
The Chang family is a big family in the county. Members of the Chang family are engaged in various industries. Some are officials, and some are businessmen. But since the Chang family members disappeared one after another, the rest of the Chang family members have disappeared.
Xiao Huairang searched for a long time before he found a member of the Chang family in a small alley.
Chang Gui is Chang Fu's younger brother. He has been in a state of panic ever since his brother disappeared. Out of fear, he moved to a remote alley with his wife and children.
Xiao Huai asked Chang Gui to find his family and explain his identity. Only then did Chang Gui let down his guard a little and slowly told them what had happened in the past few days.
"My brother suddenly disappeared in October last year. My uncles and aunts sent many people to look for him but found nothing. They originally thought that my brother had offended someone and died, but they didn't expect that my uncles and aunts also gradually disappeared."
The Chang family’s nightmare began half a year ago, and they are still living in fear day and night.
"More than ten people from our Chang family have gone missing. The immortals implore you to find them."
Chang Gui said while wiping the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes.
Shen Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, snorted and ignored him.
Xiao Huairang drew his sword and put it on Chang Gui's neck and said, "Do you dare to repeat what you just said?"
Xiao Huairang realized that Chang Gui was lying from the first sentence he said.
Chang Fu does not have a high status in the Chang family. How could the disappearance of an ordinary person cause such a big commotion, not to mention that the Chang family puts profit first.
Moreover, if Chang Gui's family was really scared, why didn't they move out of Changyan County, but hide in such a remote place.
Chang Gui was so frightened when he saw the sharp sword on his neck that he stammered for a long time and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
His wife rushed over and cried, "Husband, just tell me the truth. Those things were done by Chang Fu and his men. They have nothing to do with you. Why should we help them cover up those dirty deeds?"
Amid his wife's cries, Chang Gui trembled and said, "I'm telling you, Immortal, please show mercy!"
"Chang Fu and his men tricked Jiang Ruo into the wilderness a year ago. I don't know what they did to him. I only remember that Chang Fu disappeared half a year ago. Some people in the Chang family were talking about revenge, saying that Jiang Ruo's family had come to seek revenge. Please spare their lives, Immortal!"
Xiao Huairang retracted the sword and pulled Rong Jin away.
Rong Jin did not move, but stared at Chang Gui's wife. He found that there seemed to be something wrong with Chang Gui's wife.
After the woman cried out those words, she lowered her head with a dull look in her eyes.
It looks a bit weird no matter how you look at it.
Chang Gui's wife suddenly looked up at Rong Jin and smiled at him.
Rong Jin was startled, but in a blink of an eye, Chang Gui's wife returned to normal. She didn't look at Rong Jin again, but hugged Chang Gui's arm crying.
Xiao Huairang squeezed Rong Jin's hand and asked, "What's wrong, Rongrong?"
Rong Jin patted his head and said, "It's okay, I was just dazzled."
In fact, it may not be an illusion, but he has no evidence.
Shen Yu walked to the right of Rong Jin and said, "Brother Shen, is there anything you like?"
Rong Jin hesitated for a moment and said, "I like...sweet food."
"Gone?"
Rong Jin said: "I can't think of anything else for now."
Shen Yu said "Oh" and brought a lot of sweets to Rong Jin that night.
Rong Jin had just taken a bite of the sweet pastry when Chen Zhuo and Xiao Huairang also came in with a bunch of sweets.
Rong Jin: “?”
Shen Yu: “Heh.” Fortunately he came early.
Xiao Huairang and Chen Zhuo put the sweets they brought on the table, sat down and talked about the clues they found today.
Xiao Huairang: "Jiang Ruo is Jiang Yue's daughter. She disappeared a year ago and her whereabouts remain unknown. Chang Fu, Chang Zheng and others disappeared one after another half a year ago. Based on the clues I have found so far, I suspect that Jiang Ruo's disappearance is related to Chang Fu and others, and it is very likely that she died a year ago."
Rong Jin thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that Jiang Ruo turned into a ghost after her death and came to seek revenge on the Chang family who harmed her?"
Xiao Huairang said: "It's possible."
Generally speaking, mortals who die with hatred in their hearts have a great chance of turning into evil spirits after death.
Chen Zhuo said calmly, "Except for Jiang Ruo, Jiang Ruo's husband also disappeared a year ago."
Rong Jin suddenly realized, "So it's possible that it was caused by a living person."
Shen Yu said lazily: "As far as I know, a mortal who turns into a ghost is not capable of killing more than a dozen people in a short period of time. It will take at least ten years, and ghosts like to kill people in cruel ways. If it is really a ghost, what we are investigating now is not the missing people, but the dead."
Rong Jin propped up his chin and listened to them for a long time, then asked in confusion: "We have only been in Changyan County for two days, how did you three find out so much information?"
Is it because he is too useless?
Looking at Rong Jin's doubtful look, Shen Yu smiled and said, "We are lucky."
"Really?" Rong Jin believed it a little. After all, his luck has always been bad.
Several people started talking again. Rong Jin felt sleepy, but he was too embarrassed to ask for a break, so he forced himself to listen to them.
I don’t know whose foot was placed on Rong Jin’s calf, teasing it gently.
Rong Jin woke up. He looked down and saw that the three men's feet were placed quietly on the ground.
Shen Yu noticed Rong Jin's little action and asked casually, "Brother Shen, what's wrong?"
Their eyes all fell on Rong Jin.
Rong Jin shook his head, wanting to say it was okay, but the foot touched his leg again.
This time she actually touched his thigh too much!
