Chapter 783: Lin Jing’s News
"Go by yourself?" Lin Qiao asked him.
"It's true on the surface, but I don't know the reason." Lin Kui shook his head and said with some disappointment.
Lin Qiao thought for a while, then looked at him and said, "Are there still people living around where she lives?"
Lin Kui nodded and said, "Yes."
"Go and ask." Lin Qiao said.
Not long after, Lin Kui took Lin Qiao back to the downstairs where Lin Jing lived. After opening the locked door, he walked up the corridor downstairs.
After arriving on the fifth floor, among the dozen or so single-room rooms, only two smelled like living people.
Lin Qiao led Duan Juan to one of them. He raised his hand and knocked on the door rhythmically, and said hello: "Is there anyone inside?"
Knowing that there are people inside, but still ask if there is anyone. Moreover, the action of knocking on the door is neither light nor heavy, and has a sense of rhythm. It is also to tell the people inside that they have no malicious intentions.
After waiting for a while, I didn't hear any movement from inside.
Lin Qiao was not in a hurry, knocked on the door again, and said, "I know someone is inside, please open the door, please. There is something I would like to ask you to do."
There are more than one person inside, and more than just one person.
Seeing that the people inside still refused to come out, Lin Qiao could only change his tone: "If you don't open the door again, we will force our way in."
Although he was threatening, Lin Qiao didn't really break into the door. Instead, he waited quietly for a while.
Ten seconds later, as expected, the sound of someone walking gradually came from inside.
Soon, footsteps came to the door, followed by the sound of a lock being unlocked. The door was only opened a crack, revealing the face of a woman in her thirties behind the crack.
The woman stared at Lin Qiao and Duan Juan vigilantly, and asked in a wary voice, "You... what's the matter?"
"Don't worry, we won't go in. Just ask a few questions." Lin Qiao asked with a pleasing smile, "Do you know a person named Lin Jing who lived in that house over there before? Do you know the movement of her house?"
The woman in the crack of the door looked at Lin Qiao with probing eyes, and then looked at the direction Lin Qiao was pointing.
After deliberating for a while, she asked Lin Qiao: "Who are you? What are you asking her for?"
Lin Qiao looked at her and knew the answer she wanted without asking any more. She said with a smile: "Oh, she has a younger brother who lost her a few years ago, please ask me to find her now."
She felt that this woman didn't have any malicious thoughts about Lin Jing next door, because Lin Jing was quite a person and got along well with the neighbors around her.
So when this woman mentioned Lin Jing's name just now, she immediately became vigilant in her mind. There was a faint thought that if Lin Qiao was a bad person, she would cover for Lin Jing.
"Impossible, she said that her brother died at the end of the world." The woman's eyes widened slightly, her face full of disbelief.
Lin Qiao smiled and made up: "No, he didn't die. Lin Jing didn't see him die either. He just had a bad awakening ability at that time. In fact, he has been quietly protecting Lin Jing in recent years. Quiet. You know this too, Lin Jing has always had a mysterious person protecting her."
"If it's her brother, why didn't he show up but hide?" The woman obviously didn't believe what Lin Qiao said, but felt that the possibility was very high.
"Because he is disfigured." Lin Qiao continued to make up: "Now he is too ugly to see people, so he dare not see his sister."
Lin Kui, who was said to be disfigured, was hiding in a corner: "..."
The woman's eyes flickered, and she looked at Lin Qiao with some hesitation: "It's really her brother? Then what do you say her brother's name is?"
Lin Qiao: "Lin Kui."
The woman's eyes lit up: "The name is correct. But didn't you say that he has been secretly protecting Lin Jing? Why don't you know where she is now?"
Lin Qiao could only continue to make up: "Because he was seriously injured before, he has been recovering from his injuries until now. He only wanted to come to her when he knew that the Huaxia Base was now besieged by corpses. I didn't expect that it had been in that room for a long time. No one lives."
"She's gone. She's been working as a servant in someone else's house before. But half a year ago, the owner's man was drunk, so he might have messed with Lin Jing, and then Lin Jing was about to resign. I didn't expect that the housewife The master has always disliked Lin Jing for a long time. After this happened, she insisted that Lin Jing seduced her man or something. Several times she brought people to try to take revenge on her, but fortunately she was smart and hid at home and did not go out. Give that woman a chance to harm her." Seeing Lin Qiao explaining so patiently, the woman finally sighed and told about Lin Jing.
In fact, Lin Qiao already knew these things in her mind.
After Lin Jing was blocked by that woman several times, she knew that she couldn't survive in this base. Because the man in that family is a supernatural being, and he is also a petty official. But he is henpecked because his father-in-law has a bigger lawsuit than him. So in order not to offend his wife's natal family, the man allowed his wife to bully others.
As a result, Lin Jing's life was oppressed everywhere, and it became more and more difficult to survive here. In the end, she had no other choice. In order to survive and leave here, she took out all her belongings and invited a few supernatural beings to escort her to the Mongolian tribe closest to the Huaxia base.
"Then what's going on behind her? Have you been harmed by that woman?" Lin Qiao asked her, then glanced sideways at Lin Kui's direction.
"No, she ran away looking for an opportunity. At that time, the woman sent someone to guard the downstairs, so she begged us to help her find some supernatural beings, and then took her away. It seems that she went to the Mongolian people Let's go to the base, although the conditions over there are a bit worse, but it is close to the Huaxia base." The woman finally said.
Because Lin Jing can only afford the travel expenses to the Mongolian people, and she can't afford it if it's too far away. It doesn't matter if the conditions are poor on the Mongolian side, at least she has no enemies there, and it may be dangerous if she is not familiar with the place. But it's better than staying at the Huaxia base and being killed by that woman at any time.
"Going to the Mongolian people? Well, we know. Thank you, this is a thank you gift. Please keep it carefully." Lin Qiao got the news he wanted, so he took a few three-level coins and two four-level coins. The first-class corpse core came out and handed to her.
The lowest in her hand is the third-level corpse core, and there are four and five levels, but she dare not give too much. Afraid of bringing disaster to this ordinary woman.
Lin Qiao could sense that there were four people in this room including the woman in front of her, but they were all ordinary people without supernatural powers.
Seeing that Lin Qiao wanted to do her favors, the woman shrugged in embarrassment, "No, no, it's just a few words, you can't give such a valuable thing."
Lin Qiao said: "Don't talk, just take it. Hurry up, lest others see it. That's it, let's go."
As she spoke, she directly put the core of the corpse in the woman's hand, then took a step back, turned around and left with Duan Juan.
