Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1086: Chapter 1087: Gong Daizi

Although some people were casually sitting on the ground, their elegance was hard to disguise. The young Officer was clearly one of these people, with one leg propped up, an arm resting on it, the other leg stretched out long and straight.

Gong Xinhe, excited, led them back to Meng Xinian.

”Officer, they can make their own medicine. Once it’s applied, they won’t fear the poisonous insects on the mountain! They are cousins,” he pointed at Yiwa, ”her name is Yiwa.”

He then pointed at Kitten, ”This is Yiwa’s cousin Kitten.”

In fact, these sisters easily made a very good first impression.

The older sister appeared honest and bold, the younger one delicate and beautiful, both seeming harmless and pure.

Meng Xinian’s eyebrows furrowed immediately.

His gaze landed on Kitten’s face.

Kitten shuddered slightly, leaning towards Gong Xinhe.

Gong Xinhe glanced at her and said softly, ”Don’t be afraid. Our Officer is very kind, and he will definitely protect you!”

”Gong Stupid.” Meng Xinian suddenly called out to him with a stern voice.

Gong Xinhe paused, initially not realizing he was being called, directly until Meng Xinian fixed him with a stare.

”Officer, what’s wrong?” Why suddenly call him Gong Stupid?

Standing by the cave entrance, Dai Gang was struggling to suppress his laughter, while discreetly signaling his teammate nearby who nodded subtly.

”Do you know where fingers can get calluses from digging for insects?” Meng Xinian asked in a steady, calm tone.

Upon hearing this, Yiwa reacted immediately, turning suddenly to dash towards the cave exit.

But Dai Gang and others were prepared, blocking the cave entrance immediately, reaching out to grab her.

The woman suddenly tore off the cloth bag from her waist and swung it towards them.

At that moment, Kitten cried out tremulously, ”Be careful not to get hit by that bag! It’s full of poison insect powder!”

Dai Gang and the others quickly dodged.

Seeing this, Yiwa tried to bolt for the cave entrance again, but a wooden stick struck her legs, hitting her with a thud, and Yiwa fell to the ground, while Dai Gang immediately kicked the dropped bag away.

At the same time, others had quickly subdued Yiwa, lifting her up.

Gong Xinhe was dumbfounded, not reacting for a long time.

What just happened?

Meanwhile, Kitten had not moved at all, being compliantly subdued by two people.

Meng Xinian clapped his hands, having dirtied them when striking with the stick.

”How did you find my flaw? Because of my hand? My hand has calluses,” Yiwa stared intently at Meng Xinian.

She had truly underestimated this young Officer at first.

So, maybe she had been too relaxed when she first came in.

But even if too relaxed, it shouldn’t have revealed everything so quickly.

”Yes, your hands have calluses,” Meng Xinian spoke lightly, ”Moreover, they are the type that comes from long-term handling of a gun.”

Those used to handling guns can easily be spotted, provided one is neither blind nor foolish.

Of course, Gong Xinhe belonged to the latter.

Didn’t Dai Gang just spot it?

Gong Xinhe then shocked, looked at Yiwa’s hands, indeed!

”Also, when I came up the mountain, I had already asked the Sentinel Post if any villagers from nearby had come up in the past few days,” Meng Xinian was answering Yiwa but really educating Gong Xinhe, ”because we always need to be aware. But the team at the Sentinel Post told me that villagers wouldn’t come up these days, they have enough experience to know that the weather forecast predicted heavy rain, making any efforts on the mountain futile and a waste of time.”
