She married a military officer in the 1970s and was pampered by the family members in the compound!

Sui Yuanyuan squinted at the figure and nudged Su Lie's arm.

"Why does this person look so familiar?"

Su Lie twitched the corners of his mouth, a smile appearing in his eyes.

"An old man from the black market!"

Upon hearing this, Sui Yuanyuan suddenly realized what was happening, and then covered her face in anguish.

Last time, she acted bravely and got into trouble with Chen Si, who was like a mad dog.

I never expected to see this old man even after arriving in the provincial capital!

Is he an NPC?

Five menacing-looking men were chasing after the old man.

"You old geezer, daring to steal! We'll beat you to death!"

"Help! I didn't steal anything! I'm here to find my great-grandson!"

The old man's lips were now pale, and his body was even more hunched over than before.

His lips trembled as he tried to call for help, but he tripped over a stone and was overtaken by them in the blink of an eye.

He was met with a beating.

"You old geezer, you dared to talk nonsense! Blame it on the fact that you offended someone you shouldn't have!"

The five men showed no mercy and kicked the old man hard.

Looking at their fierce appearance, it wasn't catching a thief at all; it was clearly murder to silence them!

"Help?"

Su Lie stood up straight, his eyes sharp.

Like a cheetah ready to tear its prey's throat apart at any moment!

Sui Yuanyuan bit her lip, her eyes filled with struggle.

After saving him last time, he was subsequently pursued by several groups of assassins.

If we try to save her again... we'll have to bombard her with cannons!!

"save!!"

This word was squeezed out by Sui Yuanyuan through gritted teeth.

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Lie rushed out. By the time Sui Yuanyuan ran over, the five people were already lying flat on the ground.

"Grandpa, are you alright?"

Sui Yuanyuan walked to the old man's side, intending to help him up, but saw that he was pale and confused.

"Yuanyuan, he rolled his eyes!"

Not only were his eyes rolling back, but he was also convulsing, and his hands and feet were so stiff that they couldn't be pried open.

"Heatstroke, heat exhaustion!"

Sui Yuanyuan didn't say much, but dragged the person to a shady place and opened the medicine box with a serious expression.

"Someone get me some water!"

After he shouted that, those who were watching the commotion rushed home to fetch water.

Sui Yuanyuan then quickly inserted silver needles into the old man's various acupoints, and then massaged and kneaded them to relax his spasmodic muscles and tendons.

The whole process took less than ten minutes.

Sui Yuanyuan's movements were swift, precise, and ruthless, leaving onlookers dazzled.

Once someone brought the water over, Sui Yuanyuan had Su Lie wipe the old man's limbs and groin with cool water.

"Hey, she's awake!"

"Yes, that's amazing! A few needle pricks and the person woke up!"

The onlookers gasped in amazement and applauded Sui Yuanyuan, exclaiming how amazing her medical skills were!

The old man woke up groggily and saw Sui Yuanyuan's face.

At first, he thought he was dead and was hallucinating.

"Grandpa, you're awake! We meet again!"

Sui Yuanyuan grinned, and the old man finally realized he wasn't hallucinating. He shakily raised his thin, dry hand and grabbed her sleeve.

She's a petite little girl, but for some reason, seeing her makes me feel at peace.

"Little girl, please, please save my great-grandson!"

Tears welled up instantly in the old man's eyes, which were as dry as wells.

All the confusion and worry of these past few days turned into sobs, which he poured out to this little girl.

It turns out that he used the money given to him by Sui Yuanyuan to have his great-grandson undergo surgery.

It was very successful; the doctor said I could be discharged after a week in the hospital.

But just a few days ago, the child suddenly disappeared from the ward.

"Then how did you find this place?"

Sui Yuanyuan was puzzled. The person was lost in the county town, but he went to the provincial capital to look for him.

This isn't how you find a lost sword by marking the boat.

The old man's eyes were bitter, and he forced a smile.

He used the last of his family's connections to get a suggestion: go to the provincial capital and take a look.

The old man arrived in the provincial capital with all his money, but he had no relatives or friends and nowhere to go.

After inquiring for two days, they finally found the black market, intending to ask about the whereabouts of their great-grandson, but were instead chased and beaten.

"The black market again? Chen Si's territory?"

Sui Yuanyuan smacked her lips, speechless, and facepalmed.

What kind of twisted fate is this? Chen Si is haunting her like a ghost!

This wasn't the place to discuss things, so Sui Yuanyuan simply helped the man up and took him and the thugs to the police station.

It just so happens that the meeting in the office over there has just ended.

When everyone came out, they saw six people lying in the hall, and Sui Yuanyuan gesturing wildly to the police officers.

"What are you doing...?"

They didn't understand where these six people came from, since Sui Yuanyuan had only been gone for less than twenty minutes.

Sui Yuanyuan gracefully tossed her head and raised an eyebrow at them.

"Hey, how did you know we caught five suspects as soon as we stepped out?"

When someone is outstanding, they can't help but want to keep a low profile~ Hehehe~

Sui Yuanyuan's hypocritical laughter was like a slap in the face to those people from before.

"Tch, you're really something, grabbing five petty thieves off the street and calling them suspects!"

The militia leader looked disdainful and remained defiant.

Sui Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and stepped on one of the thugs' wounds.

"Speak! Who are you? Whom do you serve?"

"Ah!! We, we're black market thugs, yes, we make a living off Master Chen!"

The black market and Chen Si are the main targets of this drug investigation.

The provincial capital has increased its control over the black market, but those people are as slippery as eels; they disappear at the slightest sign of trouble.

They haven't caught many in the past few days.

Unexpectedly, Sui Yuanyuan caught five people as soon as she arrived!

Silence reigns over Cambridge tonight, along with the sound of the militia leader gritting his teeth.

"Alright, we've handed the person over to you. We're leaving now."

Who knows, maybe a stroll outside will lead to some more clues!

Sui Yuanyuan swayed her fluffy little head, her smug expression making Su Lie purse his lips involuntarily.

Originally, there was only one patient, Su Lie, but now there's another one.

Sui Yuanyuan sighed and booked two rooms at a nearby guesthouse.

"You and Grandpa rest well, I'm going to buy some food!"

After treating Su Lie's wounds, Sui Yuanyuan noticed the faint dark circles under his eyes and tucked him into bed to sleep.

The pills given to Su Lie contained a sleeping pill. He nodded drowsily and fell asleep shortly afterward.

Sui Yuanyuan carried silver needles for self-defense, some money, and a net bag downstairs.

As soon as she stepped out of the guesthouse, Sui Yuanyuan looked left and right, preparing to ask someone for directions to the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Excuse me, sir, could you tell me something..."

Sui Yuanyuan randomly called out to a passerby, but before she could speak, someone covered her mouth and took her away.

"Behave yourself, or I'll kill you!"

The man's sinister voice pierced Sui Yuanyuan's ears. She didn't struggle at all and obediently let him run under her arm.

The man turned left and right, and Sui Yuanyuan was almost asleep when he finally stopped in a secluded courtyard.

"I sent you out to buy something, why did you bring back a little girl?"

"Hehe, I was just killing time anyway, and I figured she wasn't very bright, so I brought her back."

"We're just short a few more people for drug trials!"

As he spoke, the man threw Sui Yuanyuan into a small room.

She grimaced as she got up and saw more than a dozen figures huddled together in the room.
