Chapter 105 The Criminal Suspect

Before Annie answered, I walked over to her and intimately took her arm.

But Annie refused politely, "No, thanks. You can go back for dinner first. I'll go back immediately after I
send the medicine."

I didn't let go of her hand. "I haven't talked to you for a long time. I miss you so much these days. Let
me go with you, please."

As I spoke, I pulled Annie forward.

Annie's mouth twitched, but she acquiesced in.

I followed Annie to the gate of Jack's house. Before the fence, Annie didn't entered. Instead, she stood
at the gate for a while.

"Annie, why don't you get inside?"

"Ah, let's go inside."

I didn't know why, but Annie still opened the door and took me in even though she hesitated to bring
me in.

"Jack, are you home?"

Annie opened the door and walked in without hearing any reply.

Following Annie, I was curious. Actually, each house in the village was almost the same. They were no
furniture since the village was poor. In good conditions, there would be some pairs of wardrobes and
bad conditions, just like our house, were empty without furniture.

Jack's houses were pretty crude, with no decent furniture. The house was empty.



Annie put the medicine on the bed of the east house. Since there were no women in the east room, I
opened the door of the west room impolitely. I then found that the west room was simple and there was
no place to hide a person.

I thought I must have misheard that day. There was no so-called woman in this family.

"What are you looking at?"

"I'm just curious. This is my first time here."

"Hey, there is nothing to look at. The conditions of families here are similar which cannot be compared
with that of yours. I saw some photos on the mobile phone of your crew the other day. The house, the
furniture, are all the same as paintings, which are better than that of the emperor."

"Let's go. The crew are waiting for us. I have to go back now, or Jacob will be too busy to handle
everything."

I saw no people here so I nodded.

When Annie and I were about to leave, the door was opened. Jack came back from the outside with his
bad leg.

And was surprised to see me.

Annie said to Jack, "I met Jasmine on the way. She said she didn't come here, so she wanted to have a
look with me."

"Brother Jack."

Jack was not happy. "What's so good about a shabby house?"

Jack stepped to the stove and put down an iron rice basin.



I saw the rest porridge and some eggplant in the bowl. It seemed that someone had just eaten.

I'm confused. Where did he just eating with a bowl? I didn't see anyone in the yard when I came in just
now.

"I've put the ointment on the east room's bed for you."

Jack rolled his eyes at me. "Fine. Go if you have nothing else to do."

When Annie and I got out of the house, I ran my eyes over the yard and saw a room at the end of the
yard. It was locked, and I was wondering if there was someone.

Annie closed the door. On our way to the set, she explained to me for Jack, "My brother-in-law has
gotten ill in his legs and feet. He is likely to have a bad mood from then. Don't take it personal. He
doesn't know how to speak. I hope you don't mind it."

I shook my head. "It doesn't matter. Where is Jack's wife?"

I asked, pretending I didn't know.

"Well, there is one thing you don't know. Jack hasn't got married yet. He's just in his forties, and it's
hard for him to remain single for so many years, wanting to have children to carry on his family name.
Unfortunately, there is not a woman who wants to marry him."

"Have Jack ever thought about finding one?"

"Of course he wants to. I'm afraid he even wants to find one woman to get married when he dreams.
But there is not a woman who wants to help him to realize his dream."

"Is there any other way? You can go to a nearby village and find one woman, or you can buy one?"

Annie's expression was not right. She looked around.



She asked cautiously, "Hey, Jasmine, have you heard anything?"

I shook my head immediately, "What are you talking about? I just remembered that you told me to buy
a wife before, so I said it casually."

Annie took a deep breath and grabbed my hand. "I just asked that casually. I'm worried about my little
brother-in-law too. I asked other people in your crew and they said that was illegal. So I didn't dare to
think about it anymore."

Annie pulled me back and said, "You just saw that! Jack doesn't have a wife so he lived a bad life. So
he has a bad character too. A family without a woman can't be said as a family. Besides, forget what I
had said before. I just said that casually."

I nodded and said, "I know. I just said it casually. By the way, I saw Jacob today. He said you were
taking care of a woman. Who is it that you took care of?"

Annie's face darkened as she denied, "What? A woman? I don't know? Don't listen to him. He is not a
smart man. Sometimes he's talking nonsense."

Actually, it was only a few steps away from the gate of the yard when Annie hurried to tell me that she
was going to do her own things, and then she trotted into the yard.

I had always felt that Annie's performance was somewhat abnormal than before.

"You are so disobedient!"

Robbie's voice came from behind.

I turned back, only to find that he was standing in front of me.

"I will be careful and not alert them."



"I'm not afraid of you alerting them. I'm afraid of you getting yourself in trouble."

"Do I look that stupid?"

"At least you won't be clever."

I rolled my eyes at Robbie. "You really can't talk nicely."

"Do you have any clue?"

"I broke into Jack's house. But I didn't see any woman in his house. I mean the west and east rooms,
but I don't know whether there is a woman in the warehouse which is locked."

Robbie continued, frowning, "If a person was there, it is impossible for us to hear no sound."

"I didn't think the woman was in Jack's house before, but I was surprised by one thing."

"What?"

"When Annie and I were about to leave, we saw Jack carrying a bowl of rice and coming back from
outside. It must has eaten just now. But he wasn't in the yard when we entered his yard. Where could
he eat the food? Is it possible that he brought food to that woman? "

It was talking about something serious, but suddenly Robbie shook his head with a smile. "Women are
really strange animals."
