"cough……"
Cai Xiaotang coughed lightly, then hurriedly found an excuse and said perfunctorily: "The two of them had something to do yesterday, so they didn't follow me. Today the matter was resolved, so they came back..."
"I see……"
Jiang Baobao nodded and said nothing more, but felt a little confused.
If the bodyguard had been following Xiaotang yesterday, why did Li Xiao come so nervously?
and……
Even if Xiaotang couldn't answer the phone, why didn't the bodyguard answer the phone?
Jiang Baobao was puzzled, but he couldn't ask directly, so he had to put it behind him for the time being.
The two of them walked around for a while, and then roughly determined the direction of the gift.
Naturally, the three little ones will have holiday-exclusive Lego and dolls.
As for Li Beijue and Li Xiao, they planned to wait a little longer.
After wandering around aimlessly for another whole morning, both Cai Xiaotang and Jiang Baobao felt a little hungry.
"I pulled you out today, so I'm here to treat you at noon! Tell me what you want to eat!"
Cai Xiaotang generously took out a card from her wallet.
Jiang Baobao immediately cooperated and said: "Wow! Madam Li San is so generous! Then I won't be polite! But..."
Halfway through her words, she pulled Cai Xiaotang towards a corner not far away.
"I want to go to the bathroom first, so please Mrs. Li San, please accompany me there!"
Cai Xiaotang's scalp went numb when she was called her name, and she immediately pinched Jiang Baobao's waist in annoyance.
"You should call me by my name! Stop using those weird names!"
"What? Don't you like it? Mrs. Li San?"
Jiang Baobao deliberately did not change his words.
Cai Xiaotang immediately started to scratch her itch instead: "You're still screaming, aren't you! Huh? I'll see you scream again!"
The two people entered the bathroom fighting and noisy, leaving a trail of laughter.
As soon as I entered——
The door of the tool room next to it was opened from the inside.
A man walked out and glanced in the direction of the bathroom calmly.
Two minutes later——
Jiang Baobao walked out of the bathroom first.
She went to the sink and washed her hands. Just as she was about to wait outside for Cai Xiaotang, she saw a cleaner walking towards her.
"Miss, could you please do me a favor?"
The man's voice was hoarse and he sounded old.
He was also wearing a standard uniform, a hat with the mall's logo on it, and a big mask.
"Are you in any trouble?"
Jiang Baobao had no doubt and asked hurriedly.
Then I heard the man say in embarrassment: "I want to move some detergent to the small warehouse over there, but my arm was sprained some time ago. Could you please help me get it..."
"of course."
Jiang Baobao hurriedly agreed.
"Thank you so much. The small warehouse is in the corridor, so I can move the remaining half of the boxes here. I don't have to run back and forth so many times. You really did me a big favor..."
The man said as he turned around.
"Wait a moment!"
Jiang Baobao suddenly spoke to stop him.
The man's footsteps paused, and his exposed eyes flashed sharply.
Then I heard Jiang Baobao say: "My friend is still waiting for me inside. I'll go and talk to her."
"good."
The man nodded and stood still.
Jiang Baobao then turned around and entered the bathroom again, and then saw Cai Xiaotang touching up her makeup in front of the mirror.
"Xiaotang, there is a cleaner outside who wants to move something. I will go and help. It is in the warehouse at the safe passage. Please wait for me here."
"Moving things? Why doesn't he find a man to help?"
Cai Xiaotang subconsciously asked more questions.
However, Jiang Baobao had no doubts and replied casually: "Maybe the men's restroom next to it is empty. I'll go first and be back soon."
She said, turning around and walking out of the bathroom.
As expected, the man was still waiting there.
Seeing her coming out, he nodded and walked towards the safe passage.
Jiang Baobao followed behind him.
Although I didn't have much suspicion in my heart, I still subconsciously became more vigilant as soon as I entered a quiet space.
The two people walked through the long passage, but they didn't see the warehouse yet.
Jiang Baobao couldn't help but ask: "Is the warehouse still far away?"
"It'll be there soon."
The man replied in a low voice, his hoarse voice adding a touch of inexplicable weirdness in the quiet space.
Jiang Baobao stopped and took a step back calmly.
The man seemed to notice her movement and suddenly turned around.
"Miss, are you worried that I am a bad person?"
He revealed Jiang Baobao's worries at the moment.
Jiang Baobao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly didn't know how to answer.
If the other person is really just an ordinary cleaner...
She was thinking——
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the man suddenly approaching his eyes in two steps, holding something in his hand!
"Well!"
Jiang Baobao was unable to dodge, and felt as if someone had covered his mouth and nose, and he suddenly inhaled some kind of gas.
She subconsciously wanted to hold her breath, but it was too late.
The scene in front of her became blurry in an instant. She tried hard to struggle, but her hands were tightly grasped, and she slid down against the wall in embarrassment.
In just a few seconds, she completely lost consciousness.
"Ah……"
The man snorted coldly and found the sacks and cart that had been prepared from around the corner.
He took out his phone and checked the time.
Originally, I still had to find a way to catch the remaining one...
Now it seems that all she has to do is wait for her to jump in.
…
In the restroom——
Cai Xiaotang finished touching up her makeup, but found that Baby Jiang hadn't come back yet.
She looked at the time and realized that nearly five minutes had passed.
"Just getting something...does it take so long?"
Cai Xiaotang walked out of the bathroom and looked around, but still couldn't see Baobao Jiang.
Then something suddenly occurred to me.
Baobao just said... that he wants to go to the safe passage warehouse?
Cai Xiaotang took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Jiang Baobao.
[Baby, are you still in the warehouse? 】
The message was sent out and she quickly received a reply.
[Still here, there are a lot of things. Can you come and help me? 】
When Cai Xiaotang saw this, she felt relieved and hurriedly walked towards the safe passage.
She opened the door and heard silence inside.
"Baby, are you in there?"
Cai Xiaotang shouted subconsciously.
But no sound was heard.
She hesitated and took out her mobile phone again, planning to call Baobao Jiang.
But before it was broadcast, I heard a sudden "bah" sound coming from the front.
Like the sound of footsteps.
"Baby?"
Cai Xiaotang didn't care about anything else and hurriedly walked over.
Just turned a corner——
The steps suddenly stopped suddenly!
She stared at the man dressed as a cleaner in front of her with wide eyes.
There was also the unconscious Jiang Baobao at his feet.
