It soon became dark. In order to let everyone see the surroundings clearly, the old man took out a rare candle and lit it.
Candles may be common in rural areas, but they are rarely seen in cities.
However, for some elderly people, they will still keep some old things habitually.
Unexpectedly, candles came in handy at this time.
While eating, the two old men took out some paste made from something unknown and ate it bit by bit.
Qin Bai and others brought out a variety of different foods, including bread, compressed biscuits, and snacks.
Only Lin Qianqian had nothing. She blinked her big bright eyes and looked at Qin Bai with a hint of grievance.
"Brother Qin Bai, I'm hungry."
"oh."
Qin Bai responded lightly, without any intention of giving her food.
Seeing Qin Bai's performance, Lin Qianqian's smile was a little stiff, and then her eyes fell on Wu Ming.
Wu Ming did not hesitate. After all, he was the one who asked to take Lin Qianqian with him. Even if he knew that Lin Qianqian had a problem, it hadn't been exposed yet, right?
"We don't have much food, so save some."
Wu Ming gave Lin Qianqian a small piece of compressed biscuit and said.
Lin Qianqian happily took it and ate it bit by bit.
"Beauty, if you don't have enough to eat, I have some more here."
Dong Zijiang also spread out a little of his food, and then he got a shout from Lin Qianqian.
"Thank you, Uncle Dong."
Dong Zijiang almost burst into tears. He can't get rid of his uncle, can he?
After each finished eating, they were ready to rest.
The house has two bedrooms and one living room. The two elderly people live in the master bedroom, and the second bedroom is given to Lin Qianqian alone.
Qin Bai, three grown men were resting outside.
On the surface, they were talking about being humble to women, but in fact, what Qin Bai and Wu Ming were thinking was that if they slept in the same room as Lin Qianqian at night, who was sure that she would make a move at night and kill them.
In this case, it is absolutely impossible for them to rest in the same room as Lin Qianqian.
Dong Zixiang was a little disappointed, still mumbling, wouldn't it be safer to sleep together?
Late at night came, and the surroundings were extremely silent.
At this time, a bedroom door was opened gently without making any sound.
Then a figure cautiously approached Qin Bai and the others. It seemed to be holding something in both hands, and it suddenly aimed at the two people's bodies and stabbed them.
But at this moment, the two sleeping figures suddenly rose up and pounced directly on each other, suppressing each other tightly.
Especially the opponent's wrist. He pressed hard and the weapon in his hand fell to the ground.
"It's really not easy for you to be able to endure it until now. Huh?"
Qin Bai suddenly felt something was wrong, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight, and pointed it at the person in front of him.
He thought the person who did it was Lin Qianqian, but what he never expected was that the person who did it was actually an old man!
Not to mention Qin Bai, even Wu Ming was shocked.
Both of them thought that Lin Qianqian would take action tonight, so they both pretended to be asleep.
But unexpectedly, Lin Qianqian didn't wait until she met the old man of the family.
They made such a big noise, and the first person who woke up was Dong Zijiang beside him. When he opened his eyes in a daze, he saw Qin Bai and Wu Ming holding the old man down.
"Fuck! What are you doing? No matter how hungry you are, you can't do this, right?"
Wu Ming went up and slapped him on the head, and said angrily: "He almost killed us all just now, do you still have the intention to say this?"
"What the hell? This old man wants to kill us?"
When he saw the two pairs of scissors falling on the ground, he fell silent.
"By the way, there's an old lady in the room, catch her too!"
Dong Zijiang's reaction was very quick. He rushed directly to the master bedroom and pulled out the old lady hiding in it.
"What happened? Huh? What happened to them?"
Lin Qianqian seemed to be awakened by the movement outside. She stretched out her head and immediately saw the situation outside the door.
She was surprised and didn't know what happened.
Qin Bai glanced at Lin Qianqian. Is it because the three men didn't come over that she didn't take action tonight?
Or does she think tonight is not the right time to take action?
If Lin Qianqian really dared to take action, she would be the one being pinned to the ground now.
Soon after, the two old men stood there with their hands tied. Qin Bai and others sat on the sofa and looked at the two of them.
"Old man, why are you doing this?"
Wu Ming clenched his fists. He still couldn't believe that this kind-looking old man actually wanted to kill them.
If he and Qin Bai hadn't stayed awake to be wary of Lin Qianqian, they might have died here tonight.
The old man smiled bitterly: "What else could it be for? Of course it's for your food."
Qin Bai was not surprised. The old man would take action for several reasons, among which food was the most likely.
In fact, he had noticed before that the old man's food was mushy and full of portions.
This was obviously abnormal for two old people who were used to being frugal.
Thinking about it now, he probably ate so much food to have enough strength at night to ensure smooth movement at night.
Unfortunately, he never imagined that the two of them accidentally caught him in order to be wary of Lin Qianqian.
"You should still have a lot of food, right?"
Wu Ming frowned.
This time it was the old woman who spoke: "What we eat tonight is our last meal."
Wu Ming stopped talking. He already understood what the other party meant. Starting tomorrow, they would have no food, so they had to take risks.
After all, if you kill them, you will get three big bags of food. Who can resist such temptation?
It now seemed that the old man had let them stay overnight probably for the food they had on them.
Not surprisingly, it was Dong Zijiang's revelation that they had a lot of food that made the old man make this decision on the spur of the moment.
It stands to reason that if the old man kills them, they should also kill him.
But the old man did this out of necessity, and it seemed excusable?
Just when Wu Ming was thinking this, Qin Bai's faint voice came to his ears: "Officer Wu, you are not thinking about how to let them go, are you?"
"We were lucky this time, but our luck cannot always be good. If a situation like this happens next time, do you think you can still survive?"
"When the time comes, who will let us go?"
Wu Ming was a little ashamed that he asked Qin Bai to tell him such a simple truth.
He took a deep breath and looked at the two old men: "I'm sorry."
