?Chapter 323: Chapter 323 Sally Chapter 323: Chapter 323 Sally Early the next morning, Liu Hong insisted on going with Bai Xiao to pick up the injured He Weng, although she had never met him before. However, having heard of He Weng’s legendary experience, she was unable to sleep, filled with admiration.
After all, He Weng, like her, was inexperienced! Despite knowing how to protect himself, he was even able to seek help, which wasn’t something just anyone could imagine doing.
Bai Xiao went with her to the hospital.
He Weng and the others had already packed their things, which were few. The nurse had informed them that they only needed to sign to be discharged! The discharge process was simple, and they didn’t need to worry about the costs themselves.
When Bai Xiao arrived, they completed the procedures, and the group walked out of the hospital together.
He Weng’s wardmates were envious; not everyone had so many people to pick them up like He Weng. Many didn’t even understand what had happened yet they were rescued. Everyone remembered that He Weng was the first to stand up, bravely facing the authorities. Otherwise, their fates could have been different.
After bidding farewell,
He Weng and Bai Xiao left the hospital.
He Weng glanced at Bai Xiao, “Bai Xiao, I want to visit Sally today. Yesterday, when the police took my statement, I asked for Sally’s address.”
Bai Xiao looked at the numerous bags, “Brother-in-law, why don’t you take these things home? I’ll give you the keys. You and Liu Hong go back first. He Weng and I will visit Sally’s house. It’s good to show gratitude!”
He Wang looked around; he wanted to come along, but indeed the bags were cumbersome.
Liu Hong clung tightly to Bai Xiao’s arm, “I’m not going back. Brother-in-law, you go back alone. I want to go with Bai Xiao to see. I won’t cause any trouble; I just want to follow you.” She wouldn’t miss such excitement.
He Wang reluctantly nodded, “Then I’ll go back. You guys come back soon too.”
He knew his brother was a good person, and such matters indeed called for a visit to express thanks.
Bai Xiao hailed a taxi; none of them knew their way, and asking directions could take forever.
The taxi driver, upon seeing the address, cheerfully said that it was just nearby, in an old house of a plastic factory dormitory.
It took fifteen minutes to reach the place, and Bai Xiao and her companions were surprised standing at Sally’s doorstep.
Sally’s home consisted of two low shacks that looked dilapidated and unremarkable.
Bai Xiao knocked on the door.
A sweet voice answered.
“Who is it?”
“We are here to see Sally!”
The door opened, and a strikingly gorgeous girl clad in a thick cotton-padded coat looked at them.
He Weng immediately recognized her! This was Sally.
Clearly, Sally recognized him too and hurried to close the door.
“I don’t know you, go away quickly.”
Bai Xiao held the door, “Mr. Xu, all those people have been captured, most likely facing the death penalty. No one will bother you, and the police have followed our advice to protect your privacy.”
The girl was obviously afraid of Mr. Xu’s reprisals.
The force with which she was trying to close the door weakened.
“Come in!”
A few people walked inside.
It seemed there were no windows inside; the house was dark, and the smell wasn’t very pleasant.
As they walked into the room, Bai Xiao adjusted to the darkness and could see clearly. There were two rooms; the outer one was called a living room but had only a wooden sofa. The inner room’s door was open, revealing a large bed, and the heavy odor of coal gas from a coal stove made it suffocating to breathe.
An elderly woman with graying hair, more than fifty years old, lay on the bed, her face sallow and haggard.
