Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 517: Spoiled

If there are only one or two older, taller kids in a group of children, Tuanzi will definitely lead the other children to play with them. On the contrary, if she is the youngest and shortest one, Tuanzi feels a bit shy to approach.

It’s fine to be older by half a year or a year, but these older kids are at least two years older than her. They’re big kids, while she’s a little kid.

With her chubby little hand clutching the expedition bag tightly, Tuanzi huddled closer to Tantai Yi, squeezing almost enough to push him away.

The silver-haired, golden-eyed man looked down at her, shaking open the map handed to him with one hand.

"Are we going here?"

This was the construction plan for the abandoned factory. After such a long time, and with many buildings likely secretly renovated after inspection, it definitely differs from the current factory.

But the general layout wouldn’t be wrong.

According to the setup, everyone would split into four groups, pass through various key buildings and then meet at the abandoned cafeteria.

The factory is large, and the guests aren’t professionals, so even spending a day wouldn’t be enough for a detailed search.

Coincidentally, one of the reasons given by the show’s crew was to investigate the truth behind nighttime cries and green lights. Therefore, the guests had to camp outside the factory that night.

After searching at night, searching continues in the daytime. Whether the truth is uncovered or not, the guests have to stay here for three full days.

Tuanzi was secretly observing the older kids when she heard her senior brother speak, glanced at the map, and quickly shook her head.

"Wrong, we’re going here."

She pointed to another building on the map.

"I don’t really know how to read this map," Tantai Yi said softly, "Little junior sister, I’ll leave it to you then."

A sense of responsibility suddenly surged within Tuanzi, and she immediately put aside her observations of the older kids, confidently leading the way.

When she felt proud, she even swayed her head with satisfaction.

The filming cameraman faithfully recorded her small gestures.

[Awww, my little girl is still so adorable]

[Cute, but hey, did the show’s crew not add any filters? Why does this factory look so spooky, yet Miaomiao seems not at all scared]

The viewers still held differing opinions, frantically flooding the comments. But soon, they couldn’t care less about giving their opinions. The camera in this group’s live stream switched to Tantai Yi.

The cameraman clearly understood what the viewers wanted, focusing on Tantai Yi’s face.

Despite being bitten by bugs, Tantai Yi struggled to make any other expression, and with his inherently cold Inner Strength making his personality quite aloof, he was, after all, human, experiencing emotions, which would still show on his face.

Most people might not notice any change, but netizens excelled at catching the tiniest clues, with many noticing him slightly twitching the corner of his peach blossom eyes.

Even if Tantai Yi returned to normal within a fraction of a second, that glimpse was enough to wow the entire live stream audience.

[Oh my god!]

[I think I just heard flowers blooming. No, it was the sound of my heart fluttering]

[Did he just smile? Did he smile?]

[Who took a screenshot, send me one]

[Let me sort out the cause and effect: Third senior brother said he couldn’t read the map, and Miaomiao, who was initially a bit frustrated, confidently led the way. So, did he actually know how to read the map, just teasing his little junior sister to make her happy?]

[Awww, this is too spoiling, why don’t I have such a good senior brother?]

Tuanzi still didn’t know that the netizens were crazily envious of her.

Bold despite her small size, she wasn’t affected by the eerie atmosphere, following the map’s directions to a workshop, and stopped to check out anything that seemed strange.

Soon, the senior brother and younger sister duo and the accompanying crew arrived outside a workshop.

The sign was too blurred to read, the door panel worn, and the lock heavily rusted.

Tuanzi stretched out her little paw, intending to push it open, when Tantai Yi standing behind her simply waved his hand, sending Inner Strength to push open the door panel, revealing the workshop inside.

[Wow, this workshop is huge, and it’s just one workshop; this factory was really big back in the day]

[Did you guys see that? There’s thick dust and chaotic footprints on the ground. Where did these footprints come from?]

[Stop talking, stop talking, I’m getting scared already]

[Don’t scare yourself; I don’t believe the show’s crew wouldn’t check in advance. Maybe they left them intentionally to create suspense]

As similar comments appeared, the silver-haired, golden-eyed man had already crouched down, carefully examining the footprints, and said, "There are four people’s footprints on this side. Adult males, height and weight specifically are..."

He reported a string of numbers.

Because he had to convert ancient measurement units to modern ones, he spoke slowly and softly, yet surprisingly convincingly.

Tuanzi looked up at him with twinkling eyes, "Senior brother, you know so much!"

She could only tell one side had footprints from four people, and the other from six with different times of appearance.

Few people praised him so straightforwardly, leading Tantai Yi to slightly tilt his head uncomfortably, before he turned to the other side.

"There are many footprints on this side, but actually from six people. Two of them are narrow, possibly belonging to women, children, or small-built adult males, with approximate height and weight..."

With thick dust, footprints in the workshop were quite obvious.

Nonetheless, Tantai Yi steadfastly declared, "The four men on the left side probably came within the past month, while the six men on the right side came here at least six months ago. Their footprints are already shallow."

[Sounds reasonable, but I still think they’re following a script]

[Script-following +1]

[But given how one is handsome and the other is cute, I won’t complain about their acting skills]

It’s not that viewers don’t want to believe these two, but it’s difficult to deduce from footprints alone without ample experience, they don’t think two martial artists have that level of expertise like the police. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

It’s at this point that Director Ming, through an earpiece, explained to them that the crew hadn’t meticulously checked this workshop, worried about destroying clues, they typically just looked in from the doorway, confirmed there was no danger, and left.

Tuanzi being still too young, Director Ming primarily explained to Tantai Yi.

"We also don’t know who might have entered, but according to the timeline, after a worker’s accidental incident a year ago, this factory was sealed, and the owner hasn’t sent anyone since."

The guests’ conclusion was that four people came about a month ago and six people came at least six months ago.

"Oh, also, I checked; initially at the food processing factory’s closure, indeed owed wages to workers, therefore stock and some valuable equipment, even tables and chairs in the factory were given to workers as wages. Neither the first buyer managed arrangements nor the second buyer installed new equipment."

This rules out the possibility of someone sneaking in to sell the former factory’s equipment.

And, there’s no trace of anyone living inside the workshop, thus ruling out the likelihood of homeless people using it as a temporary shelter.
