Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

Hua Chaochao shook her head and turned her back when Ji Xingyuan looked at her.

Ji Xingyuan's eyes passed directly over the outdoor goods store and he didn't notice the people inside.

He was just about to look somewhere else, but before he could take a step, he was bumped into by a passerby in a doll costume.

He already had an injured knee, and this collision made him unable to stand steadily. He fell backwards and sat on the ground.

"Sorry, are you okay?" Seeing this, the puppet man hurriedly apologized.

He didn't hit anyone on purpose. Ji Xingyuan was standing in his blind spot, so he accidentally bumped into him.

The puppet man reached out his hand to help Ji Xingyuan up, but as soon as he did so, he saw Ji Xingyuan's tears pouring out of his eyes. This scared the puppet man so much that he immediately panicked.

No way, I just bumped into it lightly, is it that serious?

"Hey, don't cry. Did you get hurt somewhere? Tell me, I'll take responsibility." The puppet man said anxiously while hurriedly helping Ji Xingyuan up from the ground.

Ji Xingyuan sobbed, "I'm fine, I'm just, too scared."

The puppet looked confused, "Scared? I just bumped into you lightly, why are you scared?"

Ji Xingyuan raised his hand to wipe away his tears and explained: "It's not because you bumped into me, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find anyone."

He really wanted to find Sister Chaochao, and his heart was so tense. The fall just now was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. All the grievances and fears came out at once.

Doll Man: "Are you looking for someone? What does he look like? I'll help you find him."

After all, I was the one who knocked the person down, so it's only right that I help look for him.

When Ji Xingyuan heard that the puppet wanted to help him, hope suddenly flashed in his eyes. He quickly took out his cell phone from his pocket, turned out the photo of Hua Chaochao and showed it to the puppet, and said anxiously: "This is the sister Chaochao I'm looking for. Please pay more attention to her."

The doll man took the phone clumsily with his gloved hands. He looked at the girl with a bright smile in the photo and couldn't help but frowned slightly. "This person... looks familiar. I seem to have seen her not long ago."

When Ji Xingyuan heard this, he was so excited that he grabbed the doll's arm and asked anxiously, "Really? Where did you see her?"

As the doll man recalled, he pointed in a direction and said, "It's near that entrance."

Beautiful people are always more impressive, but the person he saw had a very cold expression, which was completely different from the bright smile in the photo.

The contrast is so great that the puppets are not sure whether they are seeing the same person.

He hesitated and said, "But I'm not sure she's the one you're looking for. She looks quite different from the photo."

"It's okay! Thank you, you helped me a lot!" Ji Xingyuan didn't care about that anymore. After saying this, he immediately ran in the direction the puppet pointed.

Ji Xingyuan didn't believe that there were people in the world who looked exactly the same, but the doll man's words undoubtedly confirmed that he was not mistaken, and the person he saw was really Sister Chaochao.

Sister Chaochao is not dead!

Thinking of this, Ji Xingyuan felt like his heart was about to jump out, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

In an outdoor gear store at the moment.

Hua Chaochao just watched Ji Xingyuan run past her without looking away.

He didn't even glance in her direction.

"What's going on?" Hua Chaochao didn't understand. She stood up and walked out of the store. She could only see Ji Xingyuan's excited back.

At this time, Yi Mu had already picked out all the equipment needed for camping. After paying, he walked to Hua Chaochao with the big box of equipment in his arms. Seeing that she was looking in one direction, he asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Ji Xingyuan just ran over there, and he looked very happy." Hua Chaochao retracted her gaze and stopped dwelling on this question. "We shouldn't stay here for long. Let's go."

"Yeah." Yi Mu knew that Hua Chaochao didn't want to be found by Ji Xingyuan.

In fact, he quite understood Ji Xingyuan's mood at the moment. Ji Xingyuan now was just the same as when he first recognized Ye Xiao as Hua Chaochao.

He deeply understood the feeling of anxiety and surprise.

But even though he understood, he couldn't help him.

He was on Hua Chaochao's side.

the other side.

Ji Xingyuan was looking for the entrance pointed out by the doll. This time he learned his lesson and asked everyone he met while holding Hua Chaochao's photo.

However, the results were not ideal.

Except for the doll man, everyone else said they had never seen the person in the photo.

Ji Xingyuan did not give up. When he was about to ask the 30th person, a call notification suddenly popped up on the top of his phone screen.

It’s Luo Han calling.

Ji Xingyuan clicked the green button to answer the call. As soon as the call was connected, Luo Han's anxious voice came from the other end: "Master Xingyuan, where have you been? The hotel waiter knocked on your door, but no one responded."

Because they had greeted each other, the hotel contacted Luo Han immediately after they found out Ji Xingyuan was not in the room.

"Brother Luo Han, I saw Sister Chaochao! Sister Chaochao is still alive!" Ji Xingyuan did not forget to scan the surroundings while listening to the phone.

"What? Master Xingyuan, what did you say?" Luo Han thought he was hallucinating.

Miss Chaochao is still alive?

How can it be!

It must be that Master Xingyuan missed Miss Chaochao too much and had hallucinations.

"It's true, I saw her, you have to believe me!" Ji Xingyuan said hurriedly. He knew that what he said sounded ridiculous, but it was true.

"I'm looking for her right now, come over and help me find her!"

It would be too slow for him to search alone. If Luo Han and the others could come to help, they would definitely be able to find it faster.

Luo Han did not refuse. He asked Ji Xingyuan to send him the location and said he would be there soon.

Ji Xingyuan immediately sent the location, and then continued to look for people in the crowd with Hua Chaochao's photo.

After half an hour.

In the parking lot, Luo Han finally found the distraught Ji Xingyuan.

He came alone. He didn't believe what Ji Xingyuan said that Hua Chaochao was still alive. He came just to take Ji Xingyuan back to the hotel.

"Master Xingyuan..." Luo Han slowly approached Ji Xingyuan and called softly.

Ji Xingyuan heard the voice and slowly raised his head. His eyes were full of despair, and he murmured, "Sister Chao Chao is gone. I can't find her."

Ten minutes ago, Ji Xingyuan suddenly realized that it was stupid of him to look for someone blindly like that. He should have stayed by the car and waited for Sister Chaochao to come.

But when he hurried back to the parking lot, the red supercar was gone.

With a crisp sound, Ji Xingyuan raised his hand and slapped himself hard.

"It's all my fault. Why am I so stupid?"

"Master Xingyuan!" Seeing this, Luo Han was so scared that he quickly reached out and grabbed Ji Xingyuan's hand, fearing that he was going to slap him again.

"Did you see it wrong? Miss Chaochao has already..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted loudly by Ji Xingyuan.

"She's not dead! I saw her drive past me with my own eyes, and other people said they saw her too! She is Sister Chao Chao!"

Luo Han looked at Ji Xingyuan's almost crazy appearance and felt helpless.

Obviously, Ji Xingyuan's mental state is very unstable now. In this case, it is not a wise choice to refute him. Luo Han thought about it and decided to follow his meaning first, so he said: "Okay, she is Miss Chao Chao, but you also said that she has left here. We don't know where she went. Blindly looking for her will definitely not work. Let's go back first. Maybe we will run into her again one day."

Ji Xingyuan ignored Luo Han and said to himself: "I will tell Sister Xi about this. She will definitely be very happy."

The cell phone was right in his hand, Ji Xingyuan pressed it, but there was no response.

The phone is turned off.

When we came out of the hotel, there was only a little battery left in the phone. In addition, Ji Xingyuan had been using it to look for someone, so the battery had already been used up.

Throwing away the useless phone, Ji Xingyuan couldn't wait to say to Luo Han: "Brother Luo Han, lend me your phone quickly. I want to call Sister Xi!"

Luo Han opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he handed over his phone.
