Chapter 55: Bitten by a Dog

At noon the next day, Third Brother and I arrived at the cafeteria early. Not long after, Zhuge Yue came over. She was holding a stack of papers, which looked like Wang Li’s information.

Zhuge Yue sat opposite me and handed the materials in her hand directly to me, "Everything you wanted is here!"

I took the materials from her hand and looked at them. The introduction inside was very detailed, even including Wang Li’s life experiences from childhood to adulthood, which made me admire Zhuge Yue’s intelligence-gathering ability.

Wang Li’s parents died early, and he was raised by his uncle since he was a child. His uncle was Wang Lin’s father, and Wang Lin was Wang Li’s cousin. Wang Li didn't have any special weaknesses. Although he liked to play with women, he only played with them and didn't care about them at all. If one had to name a weakness, it could only be Wang Lin’s family.

I saw in the materials that when Wang Lin was 15, he was bullied by classmates at school. Wang Li went directly to the school and beat the guy into the hospital for a month. Even when the other party’s parents came, he beat them too. It was clear that Wang Li cared quite a bit about Wang Lin.

The materials also contained quite a bit of evidence of Wang Li betraying Zhang Longtao. Even more explosive was that Wang Li had actually slept with Zhang Longtao’s woman. Zhang Longtao was practically wearing a green hat. However, it seemed Zhang Longtao didn't know about this. If he did, Wang Li probably wouldn't be alive now.

Actually, I really wanted to hand these materials to Zhang Longtao and let him deal with Wang Li, which would make things easier for me. But my main goal now was to know what exactly happened that night with Su Xueyan, and whether the matter had anything to do with Zhang Longtao.

"How is it? Is the information useful?" Zhuge Yue asked, seeing me absorbed in reading.

"This material is truly very useful!" I put away the materials and expressed my gratitude to Zhuge Yue.

Just as I got up to leave, Zhuge Yue suddenly called me back. I turned around and looked at her in confusion.

"Be careful tomorrow, especially be careful of the people you trust. The more you trust someone, the more careful you should be!" Zhuge Yue looked at me with a worried expression.

"What do you mean?" I was stunned and didn't understand Zhuge Yue’s words at all.

"Nothing, just remember this!"

Watching Zhuge Yue leave, I was completely confused. Telling me to be careful of the people around me? Could it be that the people around me would harm me? I only trusted a few people, but I thought about it and none of them could possibly harm me. I couldn't figure it out, so I simply stopped thinking about it. It was also possible that Zhuge Yue was wrong. After all, it was tomorrow’s business, who could say for sure?

In the materials Zhuge Yue gave me, there was actually the address of Wang Li’s uncle’s house. This was extremely important. Third Brother and I had thought of many ways before, but we didn't have this address. I heard Wang Li was hiding at his uncle’s house, so we should be able to find him there.

Third Brother and I followed the address and arrived at a farmhouse. Here, there were basically rural houses, no so-called commercial housing in the city. Looking at this not-so-small courtyard in front of me, I felt very nervous and excited, not knowing if Wang Li was in this place.

I originally wanted to knock on the door, but I figured even if I knocked and asked, there probably wouldn't be any result. I looked at the courtyard wall, which wasn't very high, and saw no one around, so I climbed over the wall and jumped down, with Third Brother following closely behind.

We snuck in and heard some movement inside. I was confused, hearing the sound of water. Could Wang Li be taking a bath?

I made a 'shh' gesture to Third Brother, then tiptoed over and peeked in. Suddenly, I saw someone naked. I subconsciously covered my mouth, my face turning a bit red. Third Brother saw it and swallowed his saliva. I hurriedly turned my head and whispered to Third Brother, "Retreat!"

The person inside was clearly not Wang Li. Just as we were about to leave, Third Brother seemed to bump into something that fell to the ground. The person inside shuddered and said, "Who!"

Third Brother and I were so scared we turned and ran, climbing over the wall and leaving. The person inside saw our backs and shouted, "Ah! Catch the hooligans, catch the thieves!"

Hearing this, Third Brother and I panicked even more. We hurriedly put on the hoods of our clothes, covered our faces, and ran quickly. If we were discovered, it would be too embarrassing and we wouldn't be able to clear our names.

I only felt like the whole village had exploded. Many people behind us were chasing us with farm tools. Third Brother was also scared, hurriedly saying, "Split up and run!"

Finally, after running for I don't know how long, I found there was no one behind me. I hid in an alley and gasped for air. This was even more tiring than during the sports meet. I really didn't know where these people got so much stamina; they were like they didn't want to live. And we didn't even look at their women, really.

However, I didn't see Third Brother. He might have taken a detour. After waiting for a long time, Third Brother finally arrived slowly. But Third Brother’s image was very ugly right now; he was smelly all over, covered in rotten eggs and vegetable leaves, and bruised and swollen, which almost made me laugh out loud.

"F*ck, you’re still laughing? I got beaten like this for you, and you can still laugh?" Third Brother cursed at me angrily.

"No, I’m not laughing. You’re also not good, couldn't even outrun old men and grandpas in the countryside, how embarrassing!"

"Damn, if it were only old men and grandpas, that would be fine. Do you know how much fire I drew? There were also dogs, four or five dogs, f*ck, don't even mention how miserable it was!"

"Alright, hurry up and take a bath and change your clothes, otherwise if you’re discovered later, you’ll probably get beaten again!"

Third Brother and I hurriedly cleaned up. Afterward, I said to Third Brother, "From today’s situation, going to Wang Lin’s house is also useless. It seems we can only rely on Wang Lin to lure Wang Li out!"

"Damn, because of this guy Wang Lin, I got chased and beaten by a whole village. I’m going to go catch him right now, f*ck!" Third Brother was so angry he stood up and wanted to take action.

"Forget it, let’s go tomorrow. It’s almost dark now. After dark, Wang Lin’s group is basically all together, so it’s not easy to stop them. Let’s wait until that guy is alone during the day, then we’ll make our move!" I stopped Third Brother.

Hearing my words, Third Brother nodded and then said to me, "Fourth, did you see it just now?"

"Hmm? See what?" I was very confused.

"That white, fleshy body. That guy is definitely a top-tier prize, and judging by the figure, she’s definitely a young woman who has given birth. If I could get a piece, it would probably be amazing!" Third Brother said lecherously.

"What kind of hobbies do you have? Your taste is too heavy!" I said, looking at Third Brother speechlessly.
