Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 549: A Narrow Escape

The night breeze in the landscaped area was rather cool.

However, at this moment, Qiu Yu’s heart had already turned cold, and he didn’t need any extra coolness.

Whenever he attempted to move his bound hands and feet, the man in front of him wearing a hat and mask would shoot him sharp, piercing looks like an eagle.

He was an actor, his acting skills were not bad, and he had encountered many actors with excellent skills. Some actors who played murderers had eyes exactly like this person.

But the current situation told him, the person in front of him was definitely not an actor!

How did things develop into this?

Qiu Yu’s mind was in chaos, and he lost the calmness and cunning he had when plotting against senior colleagues, cousins, or fellow program guests.

He only remembered receiving a private call; the person offered to help him attend a dinner with a big boss, suggesting that he might land a decent role in a major production.

Such things couldn’t be discussed in front of the camera, so he voluntarily stepped out of the frame and gradually moved away from the crowd.

When a suspicious figure approached, he instinctively sensed something was wrong and even shouted for help twice, but when a sharp knife pressed against his waist, he dared not shout anymore.

"Wha-what do you want?"

As time passed, his strength and courage gradually waned. Taking advantage of the courage that had not completely left, Qiu Yu tried to ask a question.

"Is it money you want? Whatever amount, I can give it to you!"

The man with the mask remained silent and took out a phone to glance at the live stream’s comments.

The live streams were relatively calm, with no one noticing Qiu Yu’s disappearance, except for urging his cousins to enter the store to rest.

Once inside, they ordered food, making it even more unlikely for anyone to come out to look for Qiu Yu. He had ample time to ask questions and handle the aftermath.

Qiu Yu glanced over, and his guess instantly went awry.

"You’re my anti-fan, aren’t you?"

The man turned back and spoke for the second time, "Why did you change the program’s process suddenly in the last episode?"

Qiu Yu was baffled: "What change? Our program’s process has always been like that!"

"Hehe."

Qiu Yu shrank his neck back.

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

The man carefully observed his expression. This was an actor, and such confusion could be pretended.

He observed for a while. This Qiu Yu had a lot of camera time and had a good relationship with the director, especially cooperative with him.

If the director made a certain decision due to an accident, Qiu Yu would definitely be in the know!

"Outside the factory, after discovering that pile of animal corpses, did you call the police?"

The sharp knife reappeared, reflecting a cold light.

Qiu Yu swallowed.

"I don’t know," he truthfully replied. At the time, Qiu Yu only felt disgusted and didn’t want to concern himself further. "It was late, and the director seemed to say we’d report it when daylight came to find out who’s abusing animals."

The man didn’t believe him and moved the sharp knife closer.

"Exploring inside the factory turned into treasure hunting outside the factory. Do you think I’m a fool? How could the plan change suddenly?"

"But the program has a script!"

Qiu Yu felt wronged, "Wasn’t the script like this from the start?"

He couldn’t understand what this man meant. Judging by his words, this man was very concerned about that pile of animal corpses; could he be the one who abused animals?

Qiu Yu began to suspect he had mental issues. Kidnapping with a knife and animal abuse weren’t on the same level; was it worth the risk? The guy must have a screw loose.

Lacking critical information, Qiu Yu didn’t consider other directions. The man with the mask couldn’t possibly volunteer this information.

The situation was at a stalemate; one was convinced the other was hiding something, the other believed the man was unhinged but still holding a knife.

At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew in.

The two simultaneously shivered.

They both turned their heads and saw two figures, one large and one small.

The larger one wore a white long coat, had long white hair, skin as pale as snow, almost unreal in beauty, instinctively making people think in other directions. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The man with the mask paused, and in that moment, he missed the last chance to escape.

Tantai Yi raised a hand and waved it; the cold inner strength surged towards the man, freezing him instantly.

Accompanying Tantai Yi, Tuanzi, like a furry little bird, hurriedly passed by Qiu Yu, grabbed his clothes with two chubby claws, and flew off with him.

Joy surged on Qiu Yu’s face.

He used to envy Tuanzi’s ability to revitalize a variety show and was annoyed that his cousins had no talent to make them stand out. Bringing them to the same show, he even considered using them to ride Tuanzi’s coattails or step on Tuanzi to climb higher.

He really disliked this outstanding little girl. The more outstanding, the less he liked her.

But now, he was extremely grateful for Tuanzi’s exceptional martial arts and integrity. Otherwise, not everyone would come to rescue him, or have the ability to save him.

"Miaomiao, thank you!"

Qiu Yu’s hands and feet were still tied, his clothes pulled by someone, maintaining a seated posture as Tuanzi carried him away.

Tuanzi trusted Tantai Yi’s skills and relaxedly left the criminal to him, feeling at ease.

"No need to thank me, it’s a small thing."

After a pause, Tuanzi asked in puzzlement, "How did you get caught? Did you offend someone?"

Having brushed with death, Qiu Yu hadn’t realized he was ascending higher and wasn’t aware Tuanzi planned to find the cameraman. He felt wronged and poured out his grief.

"I don’t know! He just asked why the script changed suddenly in the last episode. Where did it change? He also asked if the crew called the police. I suspect he’s the one abusing and killing animals!"

The circulation of Tuanzi’s inner strength halted, and the two rapidly plummeted.

"Ahhhh!" Qiu Yu couldn’t help but scream.

Tuanzi quickly circulated her inner strength, kicked off a tree, and used its momentum to perform Qinggong again.

Qiu Yu let out a sigh of relief.

"Miaomiao, don’t fly too fast, slow down, slow down, we need to be steady."

"Oh, okay, okay."

Tuanzi replied somewhat guiltily.

[Miaomiao: Could it be his captor is an accomplice of the jewelry robbers? Isn’t one still at large?]

[Ancient Martial System: That’s possible; it’s a misfortune for him.]

Tuanzi didn’t dare respond.

Qiu Yu still didn’t think in other directions, unaware that his earlier screams had traveled far, attracting Tuanzi’s group cameraman.

After venting his woes, he calmed down and regained composure, "Wait, what’s that ’zzz zzz’ sound?"

"Huh?" Focused on finding the cameraman, Tuanzi was quite perplexed, "What ’zzz zzz’ sound?"

The next second, the fabric in her grasp tore, and the person she saved plummeted again.

"Ahhhh!"

Tuanzi dove down and caught him again.

The fabric tore again, Qiu Yu’s body fell a few meters, Tuanzi caught him anew, the grip tore again, and Qiu Yu’s body fell again.

After repeatedly catching, tearing, and falling, Qiu Yu finally hit the ground.

He maintained his bound position, sitting on the ground, face full of fear.

A shadow floated over.

"There! They’re there!"

He looked up to see a sweaty cameraman running over with a camera on his shoulder.
