My supermarket is connected to all worlds, and I've won so much money handing it over to the st
Chapter 23 The flight has crashed, report it!
They couldn't help but recall the incident where Gu Xixi was attacked by a perverted food delivery driver, and they all became serious.
After all, it's not even six o'clock yet, who would knock on the door of a supermarket that's not open?
Gu Xixi was pushed behind Xu Yi, and Zhao Jing grabbed her shoulder in a protective stance. Zhou Ninghai was at the front. He opened the door, his face dark, and asked, "Who is it? What do you want?"
Aunt Wang outside the door was startled!
Why is there such a chubby, lecherous old man in Xixi Supermarket? Is something wrong with Xixi? She immediately turned and ran, shouting, "Old man, old man, call the police! Something's happened to Xixi!"
The sound was shrill and chilling.
Uncle Wang was walking slowly and was right behind, and he was also startled.
Seeing their panic, Gu Xixi recognized Aunt Wang's voice and hurriedly explained, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. That's someone I know, she lives on the street just ahead."
She squeezed through the crowd and quickly called out, "Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang, I'm alright!"
Xu Yi, Zhao Jing, and the others awkwardly scratched their heads and went out. When Aunt Wang returned, everyone explained the situation, and Aunt Wang finally calmed down, helping Uncle Wang apologize to Xu Yi and the others.
Everyone was both amused and exasperated. Gu Xixi asked, "So, Aunt Wang, is there something you need from me so early?"
Aunt Wang's smile suddenly froze, and she became serious. She glanced at Uncle Wang before he answered, "Xixi, after you were taken away by the police yesterday, they notified your parents that you had been arrested, so your parents actually left and came back yesterday."
"We should have arrived this morning, but when we got up to use the restroom and checked the flight information, we found that this flight went missing this morning and became a trending topic. There's still no news about it."
what? !
Cancer hadn't killed her father yet, but the plane crashed first!
The hope that had just risen because of Shen Qingyan suddenly plummeted to the bottom.
Gu Xixi didn't react for a moment, but she was quick-witted and took out her phone to check. The others also hurried to check the trending topics.
Sure enough, the first three were all...
[This morning, flight HO1679, en route from Australia to China, experienced a malfunction and lost contact with the ground!]
[Plane missing?]
Another flight goes missing...
……
Gu Xixi didn't know what expression to make. Xu Yi and Zhao Jing exchanged a glance, and Xu Yi patted her on the shoulder, "Your aunt and uncle will definitely be fine. Here, come back to the police station with us, and we'll get the information faster."
"Yes, yes, the supermarket is..."
"Leave the supermarket to me, boss, you go ahead." Jiang Xi ran over from the dim light, having overheard most of what they had just said.
The owner is already facing financial difficulties at home, and if the supermarket closes for a day, he will lose a day's income.
Since the supermarket has already hired her as an employee, how can they allow this situation to happen?
“Jiang Xi is right. Jiang Xi and I will keep an eye on the supermarket for you. You should go to the police station with them first.” Aunt Wang agreed. With her there, there wouldn’t be any problems with the supermarket.
Gu Xixi nodded, took the two baskets of things Shen Qingyan gave her to the third floor and locked them up before leaving with Xu Yi and the others. Zhou Ninghai went to the police station and then drove to the city bureau to report the situation to the city's top public security official.
Gu Xixi sat in the office she used to frequent, waiting for Xu Yi and Zhao Jing to gather information.
Meanwhile, Aunt Wang and Uncle Wang were helping to stock and arrange goods at the supermarket.
The two women also felt this was an opportunity to find out about Jiang Xi's background for Gu Xixi. Aunt Wang took the lead and asked, "Jiang Xi, you're not married yet, are you? Where are you from? You're so young, why would you want to work in this small supermarket?"
"I'm not married. My family is from the mountains, and we're poor. I came here because the boss pays a high salary," Jiang Xi replied, half-truthfully, with some wariness.
Although Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang are nice people, their family situation can't be revealed casually. What if they accidentally let it slip, or what if her family finds out...
She couldn't afford to gamble on that one possible outcome.
But she knew what they were worried about, so she said frankly, "Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang, I know you're worried that the boss has been scammed, but you can rest assured, I only feel gratitude towards her. I'm not a scammer, I just want to live a good life. If you don't believe me, you took a picture of my ID card, so what are you afraid of?"
Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang were embarrassed when their thoughts were exposed.
"Actually, I envy the boss too. She has so many people who care about her. I know you all just care about her."
This gave them a way out, and Aunt Wang immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, it's good that you don't mind. Her parents... well, you're a good kid, your parents must care about you too."
Her parents?
Jiang Xi gave a sarcastic laugh and said nothing more, focusing only on the work at hand.
Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang exchanged a glance, feeling awkward again. Aunt Wang wanted to say something more, but looking at Jiang Xi's expression, she suddenly realized that her emotions seemed similar to those of her daughter, who had been dead for ten years, in the period before her death...
Aunt Wang felt a sharp pain in her heart, and sighed, "It doesn't matter if no one cares. Love yourself, live a good life, and you can do just fine. Keep going, kid!"
Jiang Xi glanced sideways, then lowered her head again, a surge of emotion welling up inside her.
……
Downtown, outside the office of the top official of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, upstairs.
As Zhou Ninghai sat waiting with his body camera in hand, many acquaintances passing by greeted him, but he had no interest in responding.
I just want to report the matter as soon as possible.
The people in the office came out, and it was finally his turn. Just as he stood up, a pair of leather shoes suddenly stopped in front of him. Zhou Ninghai looked up and saw his nemesis... Zhang Jun.
Zhang Jun looked at him, who was covered in dust and dirt and looked exhausted, and was pleased. "Why are you from the neighborhood committee here so early? What urgent matter could you possibly have to report? Why don't you let me have a turn?"
After saying that, Zhang Jun pushed past him and went in first.
Zhou Ninghai remained expressionless with a sullen face. He was a petty person who had gotten his way. When the positions were being assigned, he was originally supposed to stay in the Municipal Bureau, but when he heard that his family needed the position to get married, he voluntarily gave it to him. He was willing to go to great lengths for his brother.
When he went to the local police station, he found out that it was all an act by Zhang Jun, who was only after the position. Afterwards, Zhang Jun turned against him and looked down on him.
He had thought about trying to get back and prove them wrong, but the reality was that it was difficult to get promoted, and he was still being suppressed. But now, with Gu Xixi as his big buff, his comeback was definitely just around the corner.
After waiting for another half hour, Zhang Jun finally came out. Zhou Ninghai didn't even look at him and went straight inside.
He carefully locked the door, a sound that made the top leader look up. "You're quite a rare guest. What important matter warrants locking the door?"
"Boss, there's something incredibly important that could elevate all of us to a higher level—something you'd never expect!" Zhou Ninghai pulled out his body camera.
The leader, whose face was solemn and stern, showed a slight change in expression. He knew Zhou Ninghai never lied. "Did you catch a drug dealer or an international criminal?"
"No, I've caught a system!" Zhou Ninghai said solemnly and earnestly.
