Chapter 47: Chapter 47 Pre-warning Before Entering the Mountain

Fang Xiaocao drove the red Range Rover to take the Sled Trio back to school.

While the Sled Trio went back to their dorm to pack, Fang Xiaocao drove to the hotel to organize her things, check out, and tossed her luggage into the trunk.

By the time Fang Xiaocao drove back to the school, the Sled Trio had also finished packing.

Picking up the three, Fang Xiaocao drove back to the hospital.

As the car entered the hospital parking lot, she saw Zhi Qi in sportswear, just having parked.

Fang Xiaocao pulled up next to Zhi Qi, rolled down the window, and asked, “How come you’re here so early?”

“I was afraid you guys wouldn’t wake up, so I came to be your alarm clock,”

Zhi Qi said with a smile.

“What did you guys do so early?”

Zhi Qi asked with a puzzled look.

“We went to get our luggage!”

“These three only told me this morning it was for seven days,”

Fang Xiaocao said helplessly. @@novelbin@@

Hearing Fang Xiaocao’s words, Zhi Qi revealed an ‘aha’ expression.

Not telling Fang Xiaocao was her own idea.

Zhi Qi knew that with Fang Xiaocao’s personality, if she had been told in advance, Fang Xiaocao would never have agreed.

Then, endless phone calls to bombard her would follow,

forcing her to cancel or change plans in advance.

But if things were set in stone at the last minute, Fang Xiaocao would compromise.

“What are you laughing at?”

“Don’t think I don’t know it was your bad idea.”

Looking at the smiling Zhi Qi, Fang Xiaocao rolled her eyes and said in annoyance.

“Hehe～”

Zhi Qi laughed and grinned along.

“Let’s go!”

“You treat me to a trip, I’ll treat you to breakfast,”

Fang Xiaocao said, resigned to the situation.

Upon hearing this, Zhi Qi raised her eyebrows and laughed, “Sure, what shall we eat?”

“Can’t afford the good places, street food stall!”

Fang Xiaocao said with a laugh.

“Let’s do it!”

Zhi Qi said cheerfully and got back into the car.

Street food stall or not, Zhi Qi didn’t care much.

Back in the orphanage, when they were hardly getting enough to eat, they had boiled others’ discarded cabbage ends and grilled the grasshoppers they caught in the bushes.

Street food had to be better than those, right?

They randomly picked a breakfast stall, each had a bowl of flat noodles, and their seven-day trip officially began.

Zhi Qi’s plan was to drive to the neighboring city, stay there for one night, and then head into the mountains the next morning to spend five days and nights there.

The neighboring city had a mountain,

at the periphery of a nature reserve.

The Zhi Family had a partnership with the neighboring city to develop a tourism project on the outskirts of the reserve.

This time, Zhi Qi was there for the inspection.

In essence, Zhi Qi was taking four tag-alongs on a fully justified trip funded by public money.

As for Zhi Qi’s plan, Fang Xiaocao and the others had no objections.

Once they learned that Zhi Qi was not there purely for fun but to inspect the collaborative tourism project, Fang Xiaocao had no opposing views.

…

Song Lin drove to the outskirts again to continue tailing Axi. With no results from the investigation, Song Lin could only utilize this method to keep an eye on Axi and protect the elderly couple at the same time.

Song Lin knew that if Axi really was the murderer,

he would surely stage a scene during his escape, making it look as though the murderer had been there, killing the elderly couple and abducting the child, to clear himself of suspicion.

Although Song Lin was not certain it would happen, he would not allow innocent people to die due to his negligence.

…

At the city police station!

“Take her back first and have the assessment institution expedite the mental health evaluation results,”

Wang Qiang instructed the young female officer.

“Yes, sir!”

The young female officer responded.

Wang Qiang leaned against the wall, pinching the bridge of his nose.

What a headache!

Wang Qiang hadn’t expected Han Xue to be so troublesome.

If the assessment comes back confirming that Han Xue really has a history of mental illness, then she might be able to escape legal punishment and be mandated to receive medical treatment instead.

This was something Wang Qiang didn’t want to see.

Because he was certain that this was a premeditated plan by Han Xue to dodge the charges.

Once Han Xue was handed over to the mental health hospital for forced medical treatment, she likely still harbored plans to escape the hospital.

In Wang Qiang’s heart, Han Xue was very dangerous.

Even more dangerous than the culprits of some heinous serial killings.

She was like a ticking time bomb, which could explode at any moment should she return to society.

By then, it was uncertain how many people would be harmed because of her.

Even Wang Qiang felt that Han Xue showed signs of evolving into a serial killer.

Once Han Xue completed her transformation, she would definitely become an adversary who was both thorny and headache-inducing.

“Officer Wang, I think it won’t be long before we say goodbye,”

Han Xue said with a smile as she passed by Wang Qiang.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qiang stared intently at Han Xue and said coldly, “I will always be watching you.”

“Officer Wang is so handsome～”

“I couldn’t ask for more～”

Han Xue threw Wang Qiang a coquettish glance and giggled.

“Take her away!”

Wang Qiang said coldly.

“Hehe～”

Han Xue laughed charmingly, obediently following the young female officer.

Watching Han Xue’s retreating figure, Wang Qiang’s expression was very solemn, as a bad premonition began to spread incessantly in his heart.

…

[Croak croak croak!]

Neighboring city!

Hotel!

Fang Xiaocao lay on the big bed, just thinking about catching up on some sleep.

The annoying frog croaks penetrated her ears.

“So annoying～”

Fang Xiaocao scratched her head and picked up her phone.

Unlocking the screen, she saw a message on WeChat.

She opened WeChat…

[Hot Noodles: Baby, do you miss me?]

Fang Xiaocao rolled her eyes and replied, “Miss you, miss you so much that I could eat three bowls of rice in one meal.”

[Hot Noodles: No wonder I’ve gotten fatter recently, it’s all your doing!]

“You’re farting, I haven’t gained weight!”

Fang Xiaocao retorted angrily.

[Hot Noodles: I’m saying I got fat!]

Fang Xiaocao: …

Defeated!

She couldn’t outdo Hot Noodles anymore.

Hot Noodles had mastered the secret of self-harm to inflict greater damage on the opponent.

“What’s up?”

Fang Xiaocao changed the subject and asked.

[Hot Noodles: Be careful when you go into the mountains tomorrow.]

Seeing the content of the message, Fang Xiaocao instantly became alert.

“What’s the matter?”

Fang Xiaocao asked eagerly.

[Hot Noodles: You will encounter some issues, someone might get hurt.]

“Explain!”

Fang Xiaocao asked, frowning.

[Hot Noodles: Be wary of one woman, trust one man, and pay attention to another woman.]

“What’s all this about?”

Fang Xiaocao asked, her brow furrowed.

[Hot Noodles: I’ve only experienced part of it, I don’t know all of it yet, this is all I know for now.]

Looking at Hot Noodles’ reply, Fang Xiaocao fell into deep thought.

From Hot Noodles’ messages, she deduced that after they go into the mountains tomorrow, they would encounter at least three people, two women and one man.

The man could be trusted!

Among the two women, one might do something to harm them, while the other needed special attention.

“Is there any other information?”

Fang Xiaocao sent a message to inquire.

[Hot Noodles: Nothing else for now.]

[Hot Noodles: Both women need to be watched; I don’t know which one will act out, just that it’ll be a woman.]

“Names?”

Fang Xiaocao blinked and pressed on.
