Chapter 176

The tall, thin man nodded and bowed, indicating that he wouldn't ask any more questions.

The two left one after the other without checking that the cabin door was properly closed before they left.

Hearing the sound of the two footsteps fading away, Su Wan slowly moved towards the bedside.

There was no hope on his face.

All that's left is to slowly wait for death.

But as she passed by the wooden house, her hand inadvertently touched the door panel.

"Crench."

The old wooden door made a rattling sound.

She looked at her palm in disbelief and could vaguely see that the wooden house had opened up by her pushing, with a gap of less than five centimeters.

"Didn't they lock the door properly?!"

The surprise in Su Wan's eyes only lasted for a moment before a bold idea immediately popped into her mind!

Perhaps, she can escape!

But the next second, the image that flashed through her mind made her stop trying to exert force.

Terrified, she retreated to the bedside, her eyes fixed on the door!

The tall, thin man had used the same method to test them before, and they were beaten badly that time, with some even losing their lives.

Thinking of this, Su Wan dared not move any closer.

But her eyes remained fixed on the door, praying that the two people from before wouldn't come back, and that this time she would truly have a chance to leave alive!

Behind a sturdy pine tree not far from the cabin, Xiao Wu stood behind the cloaked man, glancing at the cabin. "Boss, I've already told her everything you asked me to say."

"Police estimate it will take three hours to search this area."

The cloak was so large that the man's face was not visible.

But judging from his figure, he looks like an adult man.

"Don't worry about the rest, she can achieve what I want." The cloaked man's voice was dark and indistinct.

After saying this, he turned and left with Mr. Wu.

The two parted ways at the foot of the mountain.

......

Jin Yize brought An Jiuxi back to the Jin family home. Just as he was about to have Jin Yu take her upstairs, the little girl in his arms slowly woke up.

"You're home so quickly."

An Jiuxi rubbed her aching temples and slowly straightened up.

His gaze swept across the room and landed on Lu Huaisang. "Did you take the things?"

"Is this what the young mistress is referring to?"

Lu Huaisang took the sandalwood comb out of his bag and carefully placed it on the table, not daring to touch it.

Why is this thing glowing red?

Grandpa Jin adjusted his reading glasses and leaned closer to examine the comb with curiosity.

"Is it some kind of toy?"

Jin Yu had never seen anything like it before, and it felt eerie and gave her a bad feeling.

She subconsciously tugged at the old man who was getting closer, "Dad, please move away, don't be so curious."

"What are you afraid of? I have a lucky charm with me!"

Grandpa Jin happily took the amulet out of his pocket and showed it off to the group.

The old man's childlike appearance is truly hilarious!

Jin Yize glanced at the sandalwood comb on the table, its red luster deepening, and frowned, pushing the man back with strong disapproval. "Dad, you should listen to Third Sister."

One word: Dad.

This made Old Master Jin very happy, so he stopped getting closer and leaned back away from the comb, his face crinkling with laughter.

"Hey hey!"

Seeing the old man looking so worthless, Jin Yu couldn't help but purse her lips.
