Chapter 211: Empathy

Zhuang Xiao did not go to class in the afternoon and asked Shu Mingyu to help ask for leave for three people.

If it was him in 2012 or 2008, he would naturally not be taken seriously and it would be difficult for him to take leave.

But today is December 12st, and tomorrow is the New Year's Day holiday. Although it is only one day, it is also a holiday.

In addition, he turned eighteen today, so Shu Mingyu naturally agreed to his request.

Anyway, the three of them don’t have to go to school in the afternoon, or even tomorrow.

Shu Mingyu also told Zhuang Xiao that he was already preparing to transfer their academic records. He planned to bring Zhuang Xiao, Shu Die and even An Lan to Beijing to study.

In this way, even if there is real danger, it is convenient to protect and deal with the problem right under our noses.

Even if there is no danger, Zhuang Xiao is just overthinking it. The teaching and living conditions over there are not comparable to those here.

After getting the news, Zhuang Xiao went to the living room and told Shu Die and An Lan about it.

Shu Die cheered.

Although she has good academic performance, she is not like the top students who like to study in class.

Originally we only had one day off on New Year’s Day, so it’s good to have half a day off now.

An Lan is three years older than Shu Die, so she naturally understands more things.

Seeing Zhuang Xiao's serious expression, she said, "Then let's not go out this afternoon."

"Well, we have instant noodles at home. We'll cook them tonight. If any of us three don't have any, we can have some sausage and two poached eggs."

Before those people arrived at 22 p.m., Zhuang Xiao would never go out again, and he would never allow Shu Die and An Lan to go out.

"There will be a few people coming to protect our safety at night, so let's stay here until then."

Zhuang Xiao glanced at An Lan and said, "Call your grandma and tell her that you will be home later in the evening."

An Lan didn't care. "No need. It will be past ten when I get home after evening self-study. It's the same thing then."

"Well, that's fine."

Zhuang Xiao was very happy with this.

The more people know about this, the more opportunities it will give Da Anlan to take advantage of it.

And now, unless there is another major social incident, it is impossible for the adult version of An Lan to kill any of the three of them.

And the community they live in is not an ordinary community.

Although this community is relatively old, it was the first batch of commercial housing in Luoyang after the reform and opening up. The smallest house is over 130 square meters.

It is indeed not very good nowadays, but twenty or thirty years ago, most people could not afford to buy a house here.

Therefore, although it is old, the people who live here are either rich or noble.

Or it could be said that there are more elderly people in this community now, and they were all either rich or noble in the past.

I've gotten used to living here for decades, and because of this, the property management company of this community is very attentive and the security is extremely strict.

This is actually the reason why Shu Mingyu and his wife chose this community when they rented a house for their daughter to rest and eat at noon.

Why just rent?

Because they don’t sell it!

But this is a good thing for Zhuang Xiao.

At least that woman can't get in easily.

Zhuang Xiao glanced at Shu Die. The girl was planning to watch a lot of TV series this afternoon, so he said to An Lan, "You stay with her first. If you need to do homework or review, you can do it in the living room. Sorry to bother you today."

An Lan shook her head. "It doesn't matter. Just tell me if you have anything to say. It's not a bother at all."

"Yeah." Everything is said without words.

Zhuang Xiao went to the kitchen, found a sharp-bladed kitchen knife with its scabbard, put it in his arms, and then went back to the inner room.

He put the knife aside and continued to think about what the crazy woman would do.

"Now that none of the three of us are going to go out, how is she going to act?"

That An Lan didn't show up the whole day today. Although her absence was a good thing, she never showed her face, which made Zhuang Xiao a little nervous.

So he decided to think from another perspective. If he were An Lan, what should he do to kill the three people in the room?

He took out paper and pen and started thinking while writing.

[If I were her, I would first assume the prerequisites. ]

[First, I only have today to act. Based on the time of death of other people in 2012, I can only act until the early morning, or even before midnight.]

[So, will I kill someone after 22pm, which means I only have two hours left, under the protection of eight security guards?]

[No, the idea is wrong. First of all, I didn't know that security personnel would come at 22pm. In my opinion, Zhuang Xiao should not know what will happen in the future. All the changes now are due to the butterfly effect caused by my murders in 2008 and 2012.]

[I will definitely observe near Dongfang No. 2008 Middle School, and I don’t necessarily have to kill all three people this time. Although there is enough time, the conditions are not sufficient. Now no one knows if there is any deep connection between the cases in 2012 and .]

[So the best option is to kill one or two people this time, and then kill the rest on September 2024, 9. ]

【So how should I choose? 】

Zhuang Xiao paused for a moment, then continued writing.

[There seem to be many choices, but in fact, due to lack of time, there are only two options. 】

[1. Wait at Dongfang No. Middle School and find a way to kill Zhuang Xiao and An Lan.]

[2. Wait for the junior high school and find a way to kill Shu Die.]

Zhuang Xiao temporarily stopped writing and closed his eyes to think.

If he were in Da'an Lan's position, what would he do?
People must be killed.

But how to choose?

Killing Zhuang Xiao and An Lan has low risk but high difficulty.

After all, there were two people to be killed, and they were just upstairs and downstairs, so it was hard not to make a big noise.

If we create an explosion like the Dong brothers and sisters did, it would be difficult to actually kill another person. This plan has too much uncertainty.

Then choose Shudie?
Shudie is now at the best stage to resolve.

She is a junior high school student, her parents are not around, and she is not in the same school as Zhuang Xiao and An Lan. Although she is temporarily living in Zhuang Xiao's house, there is no need for her to return home after school.

But the problem is that her identity is rather special.

The case of killing the Dong siblings is still pending at the Municipal Bureau.

You have to know that they are the children of martyrs, and coupled with the social events, the police were frantically looking for clues and have not given up even now.

And Shu Die’s identity is even more different.

The business of Comfort Group has begun to expand globally. If something happens to the only daughter of the head of the family, it will be a big deal!

Everyone related to Shu Die will be investigated thoroughly, even if An Lan is an alien. But if she can escape this time, it will not be so easy to kill the remaining Zhuang Xiao and the young version of An Lan in 2024.

So the best approach is.
Zhuang Xiao wrote a sentence on the paper.

[Find an opportunity to see the three of them together and catch them all in one fell swoop.]
