Under One Person: The frog cub gave me an insulating claw at the beginning

The bald man continued searching in this direction, refusing to believe that there was no one there.

"How could they just vanish into thin air? We clearly heard a noise the moment the weapon was deployed, and then suddenly they disappeared."

He felt very strange, but no matter how much he thought about it, he still couldn't figure out what went wrong.

While he was still thinking, Feng Tianci's gaze was fixed in another direction.

“Come and look at the overgrown weeds here. He has obviously covered his tracks with some items, so it’s basically impossible for us to find him. But he should be nearby. After all, he was injured, and I just put some poison on that dart. He can’t have gone far.”

So Feng Tianci is really smart! The bald man was very impressed. Even a wild beast wouldn't be able to go far. He knew that Feng Tianci's poison was definitely not ordinary.

Feng Tianci continued walking along this line, refusing to believe that the other party could stay away from him.

Following Feng Tianci's search, they soon spotted a thatched hut ahead.

When they approached the thatched hut, there was even a faint candlelight, but once they got closer, there was no light at all.

"That's really strange. There was a little light before, but it disappeared completely when we arrived. That's impossible. If it were going to disappear completely, it would have been gone long ago. How could it have been gone after we arrived? There must be something fishy going on here."

Anyway, the bald man didn't believe it. He had to check it out carefully. If he didn't, there was a good chance that unexpected problems would arise.

Feng Tianci simply waited there, believing that everything would come to light, as the other party did not want to reveal any clues.

But when the evidence came out, he didn't believe that the man could continue to hide, especially since he was already injured.

"Finding clues about him is actually quite easy; we'll go in in a bit."

Feng Tianci approached and gently knocked on the door.

"Is anyone home? We need to stay the night, and we'll pay you."

There was no response from inside. In fact, Feng Tianci had already expected this, and the bald man prepared to push the door open.

"I'm sorry, I'm just an old woman living here, I really can't open the door. You should stay somewhere else, after all, there are bears and the like around here all the time, we can't just open the door to strangers."

An old voice rang out, and the person speaking even coughed several times.

Upon hearing about an old woman, the bald man immediately felt a pang of pity.

It's already inappropriate for them to disturb an old woman living alone here.

It would be very inappropriate to ask that old woman to open the door for them again.

"I'm sorry, Auntie, we didn't mean to."

“If you follow this road southeast, you will be able to get out. There will be a small town there with hotels. You can stay there. I really can’t stay here any longer.”

After the old woman inside finished speaking, he figured the two young men would definitely leave, and then he coughed again. Just as the bald man was about to leave, Feng Tianci asked him something.

"Grandma, you live here all by yourself. Are you lonely? And if you have any trouble, I'm afraid there's no one to help you. If you need any help at home, just let us know."

The old woman was stunned when she heard Feng Tianci say that.

He hadn't expected this young man to be so enthusiastic, but he didn't dare ask Feng Tianci for help. If the other party did help, he would definitely realize that things were different here.

"Young man, thank you for your kindness, but I really don't need it. If there's anything I can do to help you, I'll let you know, but it's already so late."

After being rejected several times, Feng Tianci understood the situation and quickly turned and left. The bald man was puzzled, as Feng Tianci was never one to drag things out.

After they came out, the bald man couldn't hold back any longer.

"Why are you making things difficult for an old woman? She already said that she's the only one there. You keep asking her, and I can hear the nervousness in her voice; it's almost showing."

Feng Tianci chuckled. "Do you think that old woman was telling the truth? I don't think she said a single truthful word, and she was just lying from beginning to end."

Upon hearing Feng Tianci's words, the bald man was even more bewildered.

"She's just an old woman, what could she possibly have to lie to us about? Besides, I think the people in this village are all very kind-hearted, and they're not that scheming. Don't overthink it. Maybe she just doesn't want us to go over there, since she's the only one here, and there are definitely wild animals around."

It seems that this bald guy has become too fat in the special bureau, which is why he is not wary of these things at all.

"Come with me later and you'll see why."

After Feng Tianci finished speaking, he tiptoed around.

The bald man didn't make a sound. He followed Feng Tianci, and soon they bypassed the hut and climbed to the top. At this moment, the candles inside the thatched hut were lit again.

The bald man found it strange; if the old woman was already resting, the candles would not be lit.

But now the candles are lit again. What's going on?
Was the old woman intentionally trying to deceive them?
But they had never met before and had no grudge against each other, so there was no reason for the old woman to be wary of them.

However, the other party's wariness was already quite obvious; if they hadn't noticed, they would be fools.

At this moment, the shadows inside were reflected in the window. Not only was the old woman alone, but another figure could also be seen on the bed.

Just then, the bald man suddenly realized that the person behind this was hiding inside the house, and the old woman was just covering for them.

It's unclear whether the old woman was threatened or whether the two actually knew each other.

Regardless of the outcome, as long as they go in now, they can immediately capture the other party. The bald man was ready, and his hands were clenched together nervously. (End of Chapter)
