When Lu Pingsheng rushed in with the royal guards.

Then I heard the sound of cheering in unison.

Looking up, I saw young men and women in white mourning clothes surrounding a man.

A fat white cook was holding a basin bigger than his feet and yelled:

"Give way!"

A group of people automatically made way for him. The fat white cook placed the hot pot he had just made in front of Wei Miao, wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve, and said through gritted teeth:

"Boy, if you really finish this pot, I, Chef Guo, will risk my life to save your life!"

Others didn't know what this sentence meant, but Wei Miao understood a little, but when she looked at Chef Guo, there was only joy for the food in her eyes.

"Forget saving my life, if I finish eating, just make sure I'm full for the next few meals!"

Chef Guo chuckled, thinking that the young boy might not know his own fate. He had only spoken on impulse and regretted it the moment he said it.

Although he has some face in the Lou family, Mr. Lou is already dead, so this group of people is probably not important anymore.

I heard that the Lou family is now headed by a son-in-law, so I’m afraid he doesn’t want to employ old people like us.

He should just worry about his own future!

"Take them all!"

A cold order was given, and a group of people were surrounded by soldiers in uniform holding guns.

Wei Miao held a steamed bun in his mouth. He looked up at Lu Pingsheng as if he had sensed something. He ignored the various emotions in his eyes and waved to him as a greeting.

Lu Pingsheng looked at the little kid who continued to eat with his head down, feeling both angry and amused.

The man who gave the order from the Governor's House Guard searched the crowd with his eyes, and finally landed on two young boys and girls who were sitting and staring at others eating.

"Mary, Hollis!"

The two little foreign ghosts raised their heads and looked at the young man in military uniform opposite them with some confusion.

"How do you know our names?"

The young man was wearing a neat uniform, and although his expression was excited, he still maintained his composure.

The guards first controlled the surrounding boys and girls to one side, and after the cook and two silent old women were roughly pinned down, they walked towards the two little foreign devils.

"I'm your cousin, Eric."

Mary's blue eyes sparkled, and she wanted to lift her skirt to salute, but she found that she was wearing mourning clothes.

"Cousin~" She pretended to put her hand away unintentionally and shouted.

Hollis, who was standing nearby, looked at the situation around him. "Did you say you were coming to pick us up? If so, could it be two days later? I quite like this adventure."

Eric looked at the innocent expression on his cousin's face and almost couldn't keep his smile on.

"Your father and mother are looking forward to your return home."

Mary was better, but Hollis was very unhappy and argued with this cousin whom he had never met.

At the dining table next to them, Lu Pingsheng had already picked up his chopsticks and was eating with Wei Miao.

"I'm starving!" Lu Pingsheng's cheeks puffed up and his eyes relaxed.

Wei Miao diligently put food into his bowl. Except for when they first met, Lu Pingsheng liked to call him "young master", and he hadn't heard such an address for a long time.

Lu Pingsheng raised his eyelids and looked at the little boy's cunning smile, and suddenly he felt unable to swallow the food in his mouth.

"Brother Lu, you are so awesome!" Wei Miao praised sincerely.

Lu Pingsheng found it irritating, "How can you be as good as you? You can just disappear in a strange place like that?"

This time Lu Pingsheng was really scared. He could barely protect himself in Shanghai. Hong Kong Island was already a deep water for him, not to mention the little devil with red lips and white teeth.

He glanced at Eric who was still arguing with the two little foreigners, and breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he felt that Wei Miao was the chosen protagonist, and that he was accompanied by members of the royal family when he was captured.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help sneering in his heart. The Lou family was probably finished this time. Letting members of the royal family cremate his family was like urinating on the proud heads of the British.

The owner of Queen Street West is also going to change. His previous surname was Lou, but now his surname is Lu, which is quite smooth.

"Brother Lu, I'm full, you eat slowly."

Wei Miao put down his chopsticks and prepared to leave.

Lu Pingsheng pulled her clothes and asked in a low voice: "Is it okay not to go?"

Wei Miao turned his head and lowered his voice slightly towards Eric:

"If I don't go, the gold will be cheaper..."

Lu Pingsheng let go of his hand readily. When Wei Miao turned around and looked at a group of boys and girls in mourning clothes, his eyes fell on the black-faced girl.

Feng Qingqing disappeared.

She was thinking when she suddenly felt something around her neck.

Wei Miao lowered his head and saw that it was his shoulder bag. The magnolia flower embroidered by Xu Ayu on it was a little fuzzy due to being washed.

"Remember to bring a bag next time you go out. I put all your things in it."

Wei Miao looked up and gave Lu Pingsheng a sweet smile.

"Brother Lu, thank you very much."

Lu Pingsheng sneered, "If you don't want to scare me next time, thank you very much."

Wei Miao pointed at the black-faced girl and said:

"Her mother was also captured by this group of people. And look at those pale and soft people in the back row. They are all students who were just brought in today..."

In fact, Lu Pingsheng had known all this for a long time. Ever since he received the note from Wei Miao, he had people keep a close eye on the Lu family and their gangs.

I saw with my own eyes that they took control of a boat that was heading to the island for an outing and suppressed the students and teachers inside.

Some of the students and teachers were sent onto a large ship, and the remaining twenty or so people were sent here.

But for some reason, he really liked watching the little brat chattering at this moment.

Seeing the plump chef Guo looking at him pleadingly, Wei Miao said:

"The meal you praised was made by him."

Wei Miao saw that Brother Lu had a smile on his face and was confident. He said with relief:

"Then I'll leave first. It's too late and there's nothing left!"

"and many more."

Lu Pingsheng took off something similar to a badge from his neck and put it around Wei Miao's neck.

"There are soldiers everywhere outside, so this is more convenient."

Wei Miao was delighted and thanked him with a smile in his eyes.

She was just wondering how to get out quickly.

Lu Pingsheng felt a little relieved when he saw her leaving with her schoolbag.

The little brat is more capable than him, especially when it comes to things like gold and treasure, so why should he worry?

He walked towards Hollis, who seemed to be in a state of collapse due to his unsuccessful efforts to communicate with the naughty kid.

Instead of wasting time, it would be better to spend more time with the little brat and at the same time build a good relationship with the young master of the new Governor of Hong Kong.

Wei Miao went out and walked along the route she had specially memorized.

In the corridor, guards in white uniforms stood guard at regular intervals, holding rifles in their hands, standing straight and with a sense of pride.

Wei Miao thought of Brother Lu's half-sighing, half-mocking words:

"The confidence accumulated through plundering will be returned sooner or later."

After that, he said dejectedly, "If you fall behind, you will be beaten!"
