The man who had just escaped from prison diligently lit a cigarette for his colleague. A wisp of smoke slowly rose and he slowly approached the street lamp, as if he wanted to wrap it up.

The soldiers of the Atonement Army laughed loudly and spared no effort to pat the prisoner on the shoulder. The prisoner, as the most honest guide, pointed to the distance and made gestures.

The direction of that finger made Becky's heart tighten. That was the old lady's home.

Although there was a language barrier between the two parties, both parties were still having a good time talking, and the look on their eyebrows was better than that of an old friend.

The little pigs in the back were whining and chirping, not knowing yet that the rest of their lives would end. They would not have thought that they would be stuffed into their stomachs by foreigners.

Becky hid deeper into the darkness, feeling nervous. She hoped that the people on the street would leave as soon as possible, and she had to reach the old lady's house as soon as possible.

I just don’t know if the old lady is still at home now.

The more impatient you are, the more the reality is against you. It seems that those people really don’t intend to leave.

While waiting anxiously, there was another sound on the street. It was someone running very fast.

I saw that Tai Huiren, who was still smiling one second, had unhooked his rifle the next second and fired a bullet towards the end of the street.

Becky heard someone scream in pain, and their heavy body hit the ground. She herself also screamed in surprise because of the gunshot.

Several Taihui people looked towards this dark alley in search of a sound. At that moment, Becky was completely panicked and she backed away.

The prisoner said something to Tai Hui, and then rushed towards the alley.

Becky touched the wall and kept backing away until she reached the doorway. She hid in the doorway and held her breath. She must not make any more noise at this time.

The prisoner carefully got into the alley, and after a few seconds to adapt, he went deeper and deeper, getting closer and closer to Becky.

By the time the prisoner reached the door, Becky could already hear him breathing.

The prisoner paused for a few steps in front of the doorway. Becky was sure that he had been discovered. Cold sweat broke out on his body, and every pore was trying to enlarge.

But he just looked at Becky for a few seconds, then turned and left.

Becky was also surprised. She stuck her head out and looked at the street. She had to calm down. If she ran at this time, she would definitely be discovered.

When the prisoner walked over to Tai Huiren, he did not report on Becky. He just shook his head and pointed in the direction of the old lady's house again.

Tai Huiren didn't care and took the piggy away.

The feeling of surviving the disaster was extremely wonderful. Becky took a deep breath and patted her chest to relieve the tension.

Then, she felt the wall and walked to the intersection, then leaned out and looked around.

There is a person lying on the ground on the left, who must be the one who was running before. On the right are some piglets. The Taihui people have already moved to the other side of the street.

Becky tried to keep her steps as light as possible. She quickly reached the person who was shot and found that the person was shot in the back, and the bullet hit the heart.

After turning the man over forcefully, some blood naturally stuck to his hands. The bullet left a small shallow crater on the ground where the man was originally lying.

The person is out of breath, but his eyelids are still beating.

Becky didn't know where she got the courage. She dragged the body to the street, said some blessings that only believers would say, and then got into the alley on the other side.

Walking through a few alleys, she heard a family talking. Of course, these conversations had nothing to do with her.

The only thing that has anything to do with her now is to keep moving forward.

She tried every means to speed up and avoid taking the main road as much as possible, but when she was about to reach her destination, she desperately found that she had to cross a wide road.

This place is not close to the city center, which is good news. The Atonement Army has not set foot here yet.

On the street where the old lady was, there were many houses with people looking out. Every house had their lights turned off, and everyone looked outside through the glass.

Except there was no one on the street, Becky felt like she was being watched everywhere.

She ran towards the old lady's house.

The Taihui people leading the pigs have not arrived yet. Something must have delayed them on the way. This gave Becky a good chance to reach her destination safely.

The old lady’s house is easy to identify because it is quite large and the only one here with a courtyard.

Another point is that this house is made of wood and uses a lot of valuable and precious wood. Even if the house is dismantled and sold, it will still be a big business.

The courtyard was locked tightly, and Becky looked inside through the crack in the door. The lights in the house were also off, so she couldn't tell if there was anyone inside.

She looked left and right and chose a courtyard wall that was more than two meters high. With her size and strength, it was difficult to climb over it. The prerequisite for climbing over was that she could touch the top of the wall.

She began to look around to see if there was anything she could borrow strength from, and it would be best to use something that could provide a foothold.

There is really nothing useful outside the courtyard wall, but there is a street light at the corner near the street. The street light is easier to climb than the wall.

I walked under the street lamp and reached out to grab the lamp pole. It was made of wood and seemed okay.

It was time to show off her tree-climbing skills. She was glad that she had been disobedient before and could run barefoot on the lawn and climb trees like a boy from a free family.

Although he was always taught a lesson, he also had a place to be useful at this time.

The trees Becky climbed had a bad end, and after her last climb, her mother ordered the servants to remove all the trees in the house.

Those who have not been climbed are also implicated.

At this time, I no longer care about being reserved. No matter how many pairs of eyes around me are looking at me, I don't know these people anyway, so there is nothing embarrassing or shameful.

Becky first raised her hands to hug the light pole, then clasped her legs and moved up inch by inch.

The light poles were neither rough nor smooth, and were just the right size for her to climb on. It seemed like these street lights were specially designed for her.

She has already thought about becoming a street lighting worker in the future.

The street lamp is one meter away from the corner of the wall. A large part of the reason why it was built in this place is to illuminate the old lady's mansion at night.

Noble families have all kinds of unimaginable privileges.

Becky climbed to the right height, and the next step was the most difficult step. She needed to fly over a meter to reach the wall.

Through simple calculations, she has a chance of climbing to the top of the wall, which requires sufficient strength in both hands.

Success or failure was determined in one fell swoop. Becky took a deep breath, then exerted force on her legs. She turned half a circle in the air and placed her arms on the top of the wall.

The sleeves were severely affected, and some parts of the skin were rubbed off. She could only grit her teeth and persist. If it fell off at this time, she would have to start from the beginning.

Using her elbows and legs at the same time, she pushed herself up the wall, but she didn't dare to stand up, so she squatted on the wall on all fours.

At the same time, people were marveling at the many black windows on the street, and some were applauding.

It was obvious that Becky's every move was being watched.

After completing the most difficult leap, she could think about how to get down on the wall to the yard.

Just like outside, there was nothing to step on in the yard. It was impossible for her to jump directly. The two-meter-high wall was still too high for her.

Let’s choose some techniques.

Becky tapped her feet down to test, and used the strength of her arms to lower her body bit by bit until her body was parallel to the wall.

Taking another breath, she let go of her arms and her body fell freely.

Almost at the same time as he let go of his arms, the person had already landed on the ground.

She felt okay. Her previous naughty skills were not lost, but her skirt was torn by something.

Becky felt very distressed. Although she bought this dress two months ago, it was already her newest one.

Even so, she had to tear open her skirt to prevent herself from tripping while walking.

The skirt was completely changed to a different style. After feeling distressed, she felt proud again. This time she had accomplished a historic feat. It turned out that not only boys could climb up and down.

After fixing the problem of the damage to her skirt, Becky walked along the hard road to the door of the house.

The door was not locked and opened easily.

After entering the door is the oversized living room of this house, which was specially built for banquets. Becky has visited twice before.

"Mr. Qingwei, are you there?"

Looking at the deserted and dark living room, all the furniture here still tells the story of how it was once overcrowded, where people could chat, eat, drink, and laugh.
