Chapter 382 Borrowing Life
"Goodness, it seems fortune favors me!"
Upon hearing someone had found treasure, Little Wang swiftly followed along and spotted a 50g gold bar on the coffee table, swaying her head somewhat smugly.
After all, she had once found fifty thousand yuan!
About to speak, she noticed Zhouzhou's expression turning uneasy and hurriedly floated over, asking, "Zhouzhou, what's wrong?"
Qin Er also noticed, curious, "Zhouzhou, what happened?"
Zhouzhou's smile vanished from her little face as she approached Qin Dong with a nervous tone, "Big Brother, are you feeling unwell?"
Hearing this, Qin Dong was slightly taken aback and shook his head, "No, I'm fine."
Impossible.
Zhouzhou looked at his expression; his forehead was dark, with creases forming on his nose bridge, a clear sign of a premature death. But his countenance had been smooth sailing before.
What was going on? It seemed somewhat familiar. Remembering something, she suddenly turned to look at Little Wang.
Glancing at her, then back at Qin Dong, she realized. Their features were identical!
She hurriedly pulled out the blank book Ancestral Master had given her from her bag and hastily flipped it open. Sure enough, there were already two words written inside: Borrowing Life.
Zhouzhou realized in a flash. She had said Little Wang's fate could have lasted many more years, yet she died young.
Now, her third brother was showing signs of an untimely death. It turned out someone had borrowed their lives. And this money was undoubtedly the fee for borrowing life!
With this realization, her expression tightened, and she quickly reached for the gold bar on the coffee table.
Seeing her move, Qin Er was slightly puzzled. Although they were fond of money, they had principles and never resorted to theft. What was going on with her today?
Qin Lie also noticed the anomaly and walked over, asking, "What's going on?"
Others also looked over.
Looking up, Zhouzhou explained, "Dad, this is borrowing life money deliberately left behind. If Third Brother takes this money, he implicitly lends his life to the other person. Judging by his appearance, within seven days, he will surely meet an untimely death."
After speaking, she glanced at Little Wang.
Seeing her gaze, Little Wang suddenly widened her eyes, trembling fingers pointing at herself, "Have I also lent my life to someone?"
Zhouzhou nodded.
Little Wang instantly looked dumbfounded. The fifty thousand yuan she had boasted about for years now became a joke. It turned out her luck had never been good...
Hearing this, everyone gasped in shock.
After speaking, he looked at Zhouzhou.
Zhouzhou nodded, "Yeah, as long as we catch the person, Third Brother will be fine. I have a way to deal with the bad guys."
At this, Guan Jinghua finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling better now that there was a plan.
Thinking about it, she couldn't help but glare at Qin Dong again, "You're not worried at tall, are you?"
He was so calm.
Qin Dong still had a calm expression on his face. "What's the use of being worried? It only leads to chaos."
This child.
Qin Xu couldn't help but pat him on the back, "Don't pick up random things anymore in the future."
Qin Dong nodded.
Zhouzhou also looked at him. In fact, she didn't spend much time with her third brother. He was always reading books or watching where there were unfortunate kids involved in cases.
But she thought her third brother was so cool for not being afraid at all. She liked it!
Noticing his gaze, Qin Dong glanced at him and quickly looked away.
Seeing that they had all calmed down, he continued, "I saw a suspicious person at the scene."
"Who?" Qin Xu immediately looked over.
"An old man. At that time, all the onlookers were panicking, but only he was smiling."
"The old man you followed?" Qin Xi leaned over and asked.
They had followed him because they saw something was off about him, and then they found the gold bar.
Qin Dong nodded, "It's him."
"Did he smile?" Qin Xi scratched his head, his honest face full of confusion, "He looked quite worried to me."
"He was pretending." Qin Dong said calmly, "At the time, his eyebrows were relaxed, the corners of his eyes were slightly downturned, and the muscles around his eyes were slightly contracted, indicating he was very happy at the time. Although he seemed nervous, his body was actually relaxed. He had known the outcome long ago."
Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou blinked, "Third Brother, do you remember what the old man looked like?"
Qin Dong nodded and described his appearance.
After listening, Zhouzhou and Little Wang looked at each other in shock.
This description was clearly of Old Li!@@@@
