My first reaction was to scream for help, but I could only make a muffled sound.
I wanted to struggle, but I was held from behind so hard that I had no strength at all.
There was one moment that I regretted not listening to Robbie.
When I was helpless and filled with fear, I even thought of being killed.
His breathed on my ear and said in a very low voice, "Don't make a sound. It's me."
I kept quiet the moment I heard Robbie's voice. When I knew it was not a bad guy, I became weak and
nearly fell down.
I was put on the shoulder by Robbie.
It's not far from Jack's house to our house. It's only over two hundred meters away. This kind of shock
is enough for me to ease.
Not until we entered the room did I beat Robbie in the chest heavily and said in a low voice, "You
scared me to death. Why did you come out from behind and scare me?"
Robbie said, "How dare you eavesdrop?"
"I was just passing by and wanted to hear the sound by the way. I didn't expect to meet you sneak
attack behind."
"I was freaked out," I said, patting my chest to calm myself down.
"If I don't cover your mouth, you will definitely scream."
I knew what Robbie said was right, and I would scream it out when I didn't know it was him.
"Are you in?"
Robbie nodded, "Yes."
"Have you found anything?"
"There was no woman in the abandoned warehouse."
"It seems that we are wrong. The woman should not be Jack's."
Robbie frowned, "I have a feeling that this must have something to do with Jack."
"But the woman isn't there. We don't have any evidence. Don't tell me you also have a sixth sense."
Robbie said, "Where could they hide the woman?"
At that time, the door of my room was opened. Xenia walked out, yawning. With sleepy eyes, she
looked at us in the kitchen and said, "It's very late now. Why don't you go to bed? Either you ignore
each other, or you just can't stop your conversations when you talk, right? "
Xenia walked to me and pulled me, "Jasmine, go to the toilet with me."
When I came back from the bathroom with Xenia, I didn't see Robbie. I saw the light in his room turn
on, so I knew he was in his room.
Then I followed Xenia into our room.
Although Robbie doubted that Jack is related to this case, I haven't related Jack with this case since we
don't find any evidence.
Besides, we were very busy with the filming after that. And I couldn't figure out how much attention
Robbie had been paid to this case. So the position of this matter in my heart was really reduced. I even
couldn't think of it for a few days. My mind was full of plays and scripts.
Time flew quickly within an instant. Half a month later, we finally finished the filming in cheers.
All of a sudden, I felt a sense of relief and director Max was delighted, which was rare to see.
He told everyone that he wanted to buy a pig and a sheep in the village before leaving and h hosted a
party at the Gu Estate.
In order to make the party more exciting, director Max asked two people to go out of the village and buy
several boxes of good wine to celebrate.
Max's words were heard by Jacob, who was passing by. He came forward at once and said, "Do you
want to buy a pig and a sheep, director Max?"
"Yes, Jacob. Do you know who is willing to sell it in the village? Of course, the man who sells should be
responsible for killing them because none of us can do such thing."
Jacob giggled, "If director Max agrees to buy from me, I can help you kill them."
"Do you have pigs and sheep? We haven't seen anything from your family even though we have been
here for so long."
"I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to smell those things, so I asked my brother to take care of
them," answered Jacob, smiling.
Director Max replied without hesitation, "OK. We have been here for a long time, and thanks to you and
your wife's care. We will buy from you. As for the price, we will pay it according to the market price. I
can guarantee that you won't be cheated."
Jacob smiled, "Thank you, director Max."
I asked, "I often passed by your brother's house when I walk back and forth, but why have I never seen
any animals in his yard?"
Jacob answered, "Of course you can't see. He's kept in the backyard of the house, not in front of the
house."
I finally understood.
Jacob asked Max again, "Do you want to buy some beers, director Max?"
"Yeah, I was just thinking about asking them to go out of the village to buy some."
"Do you still remember the small bottle of beer I gave you last time? How did you drink?"
Director Max nodded, "Okay, it tastes good. Where did you buy it?"
Jacob laughed again, "This is made by my brother. Usually this place is remote and difficult to buy, we
all make some home-made beer for ourselves. If director Max feels it tasty, can you..."
Director Max instantly understood Jacob's intentions, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Ah, you
are really a business man. If you live outside, you must be a good businessman."
"I'm just a rude man. Director Max seldom detested me. Since you have helped me a lot, actually I'm
only interested in field."
The people who were about to go out to buy some beer asked curiously, "How do you make this beer?"
Jacob introduced with a smile, "Don't worry. We made it with grains and my brother has a cellar, which
is usually used to make beer cellars, and we have stored a lot of wine, so we can make sure that you
can drink as much as you want."
Jacob asked Max, "When will you eat?"
"Start at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. We will enjoy it until the night and we will sleep there
tomorrow. We'll leave the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll tell my brother to get ready. Just wait for my good news. I'm loath to part with you now that
you are leaving."
"If there is an opportunity, we will come to see you again. If you have the chance, you can go out to
have a walk."
Jacob nodded his head and said, "I'll go to do my work. You guys talk."
"Do we still go out to buy beer?"
Director Max shook his head, "No. Their beer is quite good. I have drunk some, pure food, much better
than those fake ones."
Director Max said, licking his lips.
Cole asked, "Did you have a hangover again, director Max?"
"I haven't drunk beer here for a long time. I've already wanted to drink for a long time, but I have to
endure it. If Jacob told me earlier that he had beer here. I would buy some. I didn't want to ask him for
more last time, so I just threw up a small kettle of beer."
