The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 165: Clues Found, Person Located

With the two of them together, Wang Miaomiao became much braver and returned to that alley, starting a thorough search.

Going door to door, she asked, "Auntie, did you see a man carrying a big snakeskin bag pass by here?"

"Uncle, did you see three little girls come by here?"

Time and time again, tirelessly.

Finally, at the cost of a few candies, she pried open the mouth of a little boy.

Sure enough, heaven did not disappoint those who persevere, and traces will be left after a deed is done.

As the little boys stumbled over their recounts, things quickly came together, and progress was made.

The little boy said that while they were playing in the alley, they did see a man carrying a snakeskin bag pass by; he looked sneaky and obviously seemed like a bad person.

Moreover, one of the boys even said he had seen the man next door to his aunt’s house. His aunt warned him that the man was a kidnapper, and if he misbehaved at her house, she would give him to that man.

Wang Miaomiao got the address of his aunt’s house clearly, and the two of them rushed over without stopping.

When they arrived, from a distance, they heard the sounds of Cheng Xue and a few others fighting in the courtyard of a household.

Wang Miaomiao and Wang Cuihua didn’t care about anything else and rushed into the yard, intending to join the fight.

With a quick glance, she saw that there were actually four men in the yard.

There is a natural difference in strength between men and women; Jiang Huilan had already been subdued and immobilized.

Cheng Xue and Luan Qian were still struggling to hold on, their faces already bruised. Although they had trained for a month and improved their physical strength, facing two against three still gave them little chance of winning.

Just then, fortunately, Wang Miaomiao and Wang Cuihua arrived...

Cheng Xue and Luan Qian felt a surge of hope and were instantly revitalized.

Leading the charge, Wang Cuihua rushed over, and the three-on-three fight resumed.

Not to be outdone, Wang Miaomiao hurriedly rushed over to rescue Jiang Huilan.

In such a fight, people nearby should have heard the commotion, but for so long, not a single person came out to watch the scene.

Were they pretending not to hear, or were they accomplices all along?

Wang Miaomiao took a quick step forward and kicked the man hard.

Caught off guard, the man didn’t expect that this seemingly delicate girl would strike so decisively.

The man let go in pain, and Jiang Huilan took the opportunity to escape.

"Sister Hui Lan, you go inside to find Xue Yunyun, I’ll hold him off," said Wang Miaomiao, without hesitation, charging forward again. This time, the man wouldn’t just stand still and let her hit him.

Having suffered at her hands, he was determined to fight back.

The man snarled, "You nasty woman, watch how I deal with you."

Wang Miaomiao formally engaged the man in combat.

Jiang Huilan, getting up, heard Wang Miaomiao’s instructions and didn’t hesitate to enter the house to find Xue Yunyun. Tearing through several rooms, she finally found the snakeskin bag behind a pile of firewood in the woodshed.

Opening it revealed Xue Yunyun, only she was still unconscious.

Jiang Huilan shook her vigorously, called out a few times, but got no response, causing her to sweat anxiously.

"Miaomiao, I found Xue Yunyun, but I can’t wake her up..." Jiang Huilan rushed to the door of the woodshed, calling for help to the people in the courtyard.

Distracted by her call, Wang Miaomiao got punched, grimacing from the pain.

"Get a basin of cold water to wake her up." Wang Miaomiao was annoyed, thinking that because of her, they had to go through this ordeal, sparing her little sympathy.

"Oh, okay." Jiang Huilan obediently went to fetch water.

And so, Wang Miaomiao resumed fighting. Having just taken a punch, she threw herself at him in a heated rush, fiercely determined to take him down with her.

This time, the man retreated a step, and seeing this, Wang Miaomiao’s confidence grew. Pressing her advantage, she went at him like a madwoman.

The man, seeing this, cursed, "Lunatic," dodged a few steps, turned, and fled.

Wang Miaomiao didn’t chase after him; she was well aware of her own limits. She hadn’t driven him away with skill; he was just a coward.

The other three men, seeing him flee, cursed a few times as well and tried to run away.

However, their opponents weren’t hapless like Wang Miaomiao, and they wouldn’t be so lucky.

In a standoff, once the spirit weakens, failure is destined.

Cheng Xue swiftly used a grappling technique to throw one man down and pin him.

The men were just small-time thugs, slick in their dodges and tricks, but they lacked real skills for a fight, only having some showy moves and brute strength.

Subsequently, Luan Qian and Wang Cuihua also managed to handle their opponents one after another.

Unfortunately, things weren’t going smooth with Jiang Huilan; a basin of cold water didn’t wake her up.

Panicking, Jiang Huilan ran out again to ask, "It’s no use, what should we do?"

Wang Miaomiao’s heart tensed, "Take her to the hospital quickly, she’s probably been drugged."

"What about them?" Cheng Xue looked at the three men on the ground in disdain.

"Bring them along." Wang Miaomiao went to the woodshed and looked at Xue Yunyun, slumped on the ground, her head wet, feeling full of regret.

If only she hadn’t let Jiang Huilan splash water on her, now that she has to carry her, she would be the one getting wet...

Sigh, Jiang Huilan is too literal; when told to splash, she really did. A damp towel to wipe her face would have sufficed.

Turning her back to Xue Yunyun, she squatted down, "Sister Hui Lan, help me lift her up."

Luckily, Xue Yunyun wasn’t heavy, otherwise with her small frame, she wouldn’t have been able to carry her. Still, the journey to the clinic with her on her back left Wang Miaomiao exhausted.

Doctors came over to check her, and after briefly explaining the situation, Wang Miaomiao stepped aside.

The examination revealed the drugging, the dosage being quite high, which was why she wouldn’t wake up.

Knowing she wasn’t in grave danger but needed to be observed further, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was promptly decided that Jiang Huilan and Wang Miaomiao would stay to care for Xue Yunyun.

On the way to the military office with Cheng Xue and the three men under their watch, they encountered Instructor Zhu leading a team, and the rest was taken over by him.

The afternoon was indeed a breathtaking day for the residents of Dormitory 108.

When they returned to the camp and lay in bed, even recalling the events made their hearts race faster before sleep.

As for the acrobat troupe’s aftermath, investigating any collusion with Captain Qin from the armed forces wasn’t something that could be quickly unraveled.

Wang Miaomiao felt there was certainly much hidden beneath the surface, but being in training camp, she didn’t have the chance to inquire, and asking Instructor Zhu only earned her an intense session of extra training.

Sigh... never mind, when it’s time to know, the opportunity will come.
