I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 389 Detective Game, Mengmeng from Childhood
"Um... I can handle that. I'm more familiar with it."

Jiang Yingzhu quickly snatched the bags and casually placed them in the storage box on the other side.

Hua Junshu didn't compete with her; he just watched with a smile from the side.

Mei Mengqian then asked, "Zhuzhu, are you taking your senior with you first?"

Jiang Yingzhu hesitated for a moment, on the one hand, she didn't want to see her senior sister like she was in the morning.

On the other hand, they also wanted to hide the photos.

But having already promised to take care of her senior, Jiang Yingzhu didn't know how to go back.

If she leaves first, there's nothing she can do with her senior.

Why don't we go together and figure out how to safely transfer the photos?

"No, I'll drive slowly and go with you."

"Oh." Mei Mengqian nodded, as if it were just a very ordinary inquiry.

As the group cycled back to the foot of Feiyun Mountain, they suddenly saw a police car parked at the entrance to their small building.

Jiang Yingzhu and the other two were immediately surprised. "Why are there police cars? What happened?"

Li Yan remained calm, having already observed this through his divine sense, and responded:

"You'll know when you get back."

When the four returned to the front of the small building, they saw Grandma Tian from next door anxiously pulling two policemen along.

"Officers, you have to help me! I've searched the whole neighborhood, but I can't find TuTu!"

"Granddaughter! My dear granddaughter!"

Two uniformed police officers were trying to calm the officers down while looking at a piece of paper.

Jiang Yingzhu was so curious; the last time she had contact with the police was the last time.

Moreover, Grandma Tian, ​​as their neighbor, is a really nice person.

However, before she could ask any questions, Hua Junshu walked over first.

"Grandma Tian, ​​what's wrong? TuTu is missing?"

"Isn't that right!" Grandma Tian's wrinkled face scrunched up like a bitter gourd, her voice hesitant. "This child left me a note saying she wanted to play a detective game and asked the police to come find her!"

"When I came back at noon, she was gone. I searched everywhere, in the fields and every nook and cranny, but I couldn't find her!"

"I'm afraid she'll be kidnapped by human traffickers!"

After saying this, Grandma Tian went to ask two policemen to help her search.

Two police officers, who appeared to have just arrived, were examining the 'challenge letter' left by TuTu.

At the same time, we also asked Grandma Tian a few questions.

Upon seeing his neighbor, Hua Junshu, return, he casually asked:
"Young lady, did you see TuTu on your way back?"

"No." Hua Junshu shook his head, his gaze shifting to Feiyun Mountain. "Could they have gone up the mountain?"

“We also have our doubts,” the police officer who asked the question said seriously, “so we are carefully investigating the situation and preparing to search the mountain.”

Jiang Yingzhu followed her senior and asked from behind her, "Grandma Tian, ​​how long have you been looking?"

"I've been searching for most of the day, I've looked all over the street."

“I’ve looked inside Old Qin’s house, Little Zhou’s house, and all the houses around here.”

As Grandma Tian spoke, she looked at Li Yan and said, "I didn't see your room, but your room has security bars on the windows, so TuTu can't put it in there."

"Could it be hiding in the haystack or the pile of firewood?" Jiang Yingzhu suggested.

When she was a child, she liked to hide in these places when playing hide-and-seek.
Sometimes I would hide and fall asleep.

The adults were shouting all over the mountains and fields.

When they came back to cook, they would pull out a foot while drawing firewood or straw to start a fire.

He's definitely going to get a beating!
Jiang Yingzhu felt that Tu Tu must have fallen asleep in a similar place.

“Yes, I’ve looked for it!” Grandma Tian said.

Mei Mengqian, standing on the other side of her senior, looked at Li Yan and said, "Why don't we go back to the room and look for her? What if Tu Tu sneaked in when we weren't looking this morning?"

Her idea was like a beacon of light, but unfortunately, it was completely impractical.

After all, four people have excellent memories and perceptions, so it's impossible for a small child to sneak in without them knowing.

Li Yan's divine sense had already detected Long Tutu's whereabouts.

The little devil who escaped has actually not even left his home yet.

So he looked at Grandma Tian and asked, "Grandma Tian, ​​did you look for it at home yourself?"

"Of course, I shouted it several times!"

Upon hearing this, the police officer also realized something was amiss.

"Sir, you've checked every room, have you searched them all?"

"I saw it, but I didn't flip through it. It's obvious at a glance what I was flipping through."

Grandma Tian shook her head and frowned. "You think Tu Tu is still in the house? How is that possible? It's been so long, who knows how far she could have gone."

"During the insurance period, let's still search your house thoroughly."

The two policemen spoke and then took action.

Li Yan brought Jiang Yingzhu and others to help, mainly because Jiang Yingzhu wanted to help.

The senior student probably thought the same thing, but she didn't show it clearly.

After all, Grandma Tian and her granddaughter Tu Tu are very good at evoking Hua Junshu's memories.

Li Yan guided the senior student, and soon they could clearly see that Tu Tu was sleeping in the closet of the children's room upstairs.

The little guy was hiding under a pile of clothes, holding a bag of snacks in his hand.

Several snack wrappers were also stuffed into the gaps in the surrounding clothes.

It seems she wants to eat her fill before running.

She had already anticipated that her grandmother might discover her when she returned, so she hid it before eating.

However, this person is clearly the type who sleeps as soon as they're full.

He's still not awake.

Jiang Yingzhu burst out laughing when she saw this.

The two police officers were at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

He glanced at the old man, whose face was pale and who was clearly suppressing his anger.

The more experienced policeman said, "It's good that the person has been found, we won't bother you any longer."

“Then we’ll be going too,” Li Yan said.

Grandma Tian nodded stiffly. Jiang Yingzhu wanted to stay and watch the play, but she was forcibly dragged away.

As soon as Jiang Yingzhu went downstairs, she heard an uncontrollable shout.

"You brat, still sleeping! I told you to sleep!"

"You're still playing detective? Will you still be a detective in the future?!" As Jiang Yingzhu walked out of Grandma Tian's house, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Isn't it funny? You were like that when you were a kid too."

Jiang Yingzhu's smile vanished instantly after Li Yan's words.

Instead, she asked in confusion, "Why aren't you laughing anymore? Isn't it funny?"

"Die, die, die!"

Jiang Yingzhu waved her fist, "Li Yan, you're so annoying!"

“I have something even more annoying.” Li Yan walked towards the motorcycle, skillfully opened the storage box, and took out a large bundle of photo albums.

"Aaaaaah! I'll fight you to the death!!"

Jiang Yingzhu blushed instantly, just like some young virgins caught by their parents having sex at home.

Overwhelmed with shame, she suddenly pounced on Li Yan, launching a headbutt attack.
Bang bang bang! !

This time, it was Hua Junshu and Mei Mengqian's turn to laugh.

"Now it's time to share photos."

Back home, Li Yan drew the curtains to create the right atmosphere and looked at the three women opposite him.

"Quickly, hand over all the photos."

"Stop dawdling, it'll be time to eat when it gets dark."

Jiang Yingzhu and the other two exchanged glances, Jiang Yingzhu's expression becoming awkward.

Jiang Yingzhu was a little embarrassed after having planned it all day and still being dragged out by Li Yan.

I should have known better than to hide it in the first place.

Jiang Yingzhu said, "Black and white match, the loser goes first."

"it is good."

Hua Junshu and Mei Mengqian nodded.

The three raised their hands, black and white paired, and Mengmeng was eliminated.

"hey-hey!"

Jiang Yingzhu was happy; every little bit later was better than nothing.

"Mengmeng, hand over your photo now!"

Mei Mengqian pursed her lips, glanced at the three of them, and avoided their gaze.

"Let me make this clear beforehand: I only have photos of myself after I turned eight years old. You can't have any objections to them."

"No, no," Jiang Yingzhu immediately replied. "I want to appreciate them one by one."

"No." Hua Junshu replied succinctly.

When it was Li Yan's turn, although he sensed something was wrong, he also wanted to see what Mengmeng was up to, so he nodded in agreement.

"Hurry up and take it."

Mei Mengqian nodded in relief, went into the room, and came out a short while later with a wallet-like clip.

Jiang Yingzhu and Hua Junshu were immediately puzzled. Why would they make Mengmeng's photo so small in a clip the size of a palm?
The thought of Mengmeng secretly looking at Xiaoxiao's photos in bed is unbearable.

The two of them inexplicably felt that they were quite a good match.

Li Yan, who had already used his divine sense to see what was inside, was speechless.

Mei Mengqian pursed her lips, trying her best not to laugh, and appeared serious.

I went over to them and chose to sit alone on the beanbag chair next to the coffee table.

Under the expectant gazes of Jiang Yingzhu and Hua Junshu, which were either obvious or subtle, he opened his wallet and took out a small transparent bag.

The bag contained two-inch photos, still with a red background.

"This photo was taken when I was eight years old, still wearing my school uniform,"

Jiang Yingzhu and Hua Junshu were taken aback.

Before they could react, Mei Mengqian continued to take things out.

This time it's white.

"This photo was taken when I was nine years old, wearing a school uniform from another school."

Jiang Yingzhu was taken aback, while Hua Junshu remained expressionless.

"This is when I was ten years old."

Mei Mengqian secretly observed them while taking things out.

"Eleven years old"

"twelve."

Mei Mengqian stopped moving when she reached fifteen years old.

She pursed her lips tightly.

His curious gaze swept over Jiang Yingzhu, the senior student, and Li Yan.

"How about it?"

"You're cheating!" Hua Junshu said.

Jiang Yingzhu was shocked; she hadn't expected there to be such a method!

Hearing her senior's words, she immediately snapped back to reality, "That's right, Mengmeng, you cheated!"

"But these are photos of me when I was a child."

Mei Mengqian said, "If you want to see large photos, we only have graduation photos."

She has social anxiety and has hardly ever taken any photos.

Therefore, she has very few photos of herself here.

Mei Mengqian thought that her parents might have some photos, and some more, such as photos taken when she was younger, before her parents divorced.

Jiang Yingzhu scratched her head and looked at the headshots again.

You know what, you can really clearly see the changes in Mingming every year.

Especially their eyes.

At first, it was like a kitten that was only a few months old, with bright eyes and a weak temperament.

The words "I'm easy to bully" are practically written all over his face.

Later, the look in the photos gradually sharpened, became brighter, and turned colder, concealing the weakness in the eyes.

You'd never guess this girl has social anxiety.

Jiang Yingzhu stroked her chin. "Alright, you pass."

Li Yan and Hua Junshu nodded, "We've reached Zhuzhu. There are quite a few Zhuzhus, let's look at them first."
