Chapter 383
Chapter 383: Chapter 382: I suspect..
Gu Chu planned to sneak into his room and set up some deadly traps.
Of course, she wasn’t afraid of being caught by the American man.
Just as she was about to be seen, she started playing cute and claimed that she was here to ski with her uncle.
“Creak–”
Gu Chu pushed open the door of the cabin and went in to call out, “Uncle, are you at home? Can I ski with you?”
No one answered. Gu Chu went in like a nimble little loach. This was a small cabin rented by the man. The room was clean and tidy, and there was not much luggage. The wall by the fireplace was covered by a white cloth. Gu Chu lifted the white fabric and saw that the wall was covered with pictures of Cheng Qi.
There were also all kinds of topographic maps of the snowy mountains and pictures of people’s relationships.
In places suitable for assassinations, they marked them with bright red crosses.
Gu Chu glanced at the wall. Obviously, this was a calm and experienced assassin who was extremely experienced.
“If I hadn’t interfered with the plot, Cheng Qi might have died.” Gu Chu shook her head and sighed like a little adult. She walked around the room briefly and found the guns and ammunition that the American man carried.
Gu Chu tampered with the guns and ammunition.
After wandering around the house for more than ten minutes, she found a photo frame in his suitcase. A little blonde girl about the same age as Gu Chu was in the photo. She was lying on a hospital bed, using a ventilator, and she was trying her best to smile at the camera. Gu Chu finally understood why the American liked him.
The American had not returned yet, so Gu Chu did not dare to stay any longer. She left the cabin and headed to the ski resort. Cheng Qi and Bobo were skiing, and the American man was probably observing in secret.
There were fewer people at the ski resort today, and only a dozen or so people were active in the vast ski resort.
Gu Chu changed into her skiing equipment and skied, trying to find Cheng Qi’s tracks.
But strangely, she couldn’t find Cheng Qi and Bobo after searching the entire ski resort!
Gu Chu stopped and widened her eyes. No way?
Could it be that the killer had made a move ahead of time?
Gu Chu panicked and hurried to the ski slope. There were no traces of skiing on the slope today. Gu Chu looked around and became more and more anxious. She quickly took out her cell phone and wanted to call Cheng Qi!
However, no one answered the phone!
She called Bobo again, but no one answered either.
Gu Chu hurriedly ran back to the hostel’s reception desk, shouting that her brothers had disappeared. Strangely, the middle-aged waiter pretended to be very surprised. He pretended to be anxious and made a call, asking Gu Chu to go back to the cabin and wait.
Gu Chu sized up the middle-aged waiter — this guy was the assassin’s helper.
Gu Chu stepped on the white snow and walked towards the cabin.
The snowy mountains in the eastern suburbs were covered in white snow. Gu Chu’s hair was flying in the cold wind. In the snowstorm, Gu Chu’s small face showed a rare serious expression. For the first time, she felt a chill in her heart.
Cheng Qi and Bobo…
Might have been killed.
Yesterday, they were skiing happily and eating hotpot together around the stove. In the blink of an eye, they were separated.
Gu Chu lowered her small head. Her nose bridge was slightly sore, and a murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
Don’t worry, I will avenge you.
Gu Chu pushed open the door of the wooden house. She planned to call her uncle and her father first. They knew the situation of the Cheng family better.
She stepped into the house with her snow-covered shoes.
“Chuchu! Where have you been? Big Brother and I have been looking for you!” Bobo rushed downstairs.
Gu Chu: ? ? ?
She raised her little head and looked at Bobo who was right in front of him.
She rubbed his eyes. Is he still alive?
Bobo put his hands on his waist and berated, “Chuchu, how could you run around? Big Brother and I were worried sick.”
The corners of Gu Chu’s mouth twitched. “I… You… didn’t you go skiing? Why are you back?”
I searched the entire ski resort and was already analyzing where you and Cheng Qi’s bodies were buried. You actually appeared in front of me alive!
What the hell is going on!
Bobo’s eyes darted around and he said righteously, “I… Big Brother taught me how to ski, but I was too stupid and Big Brother scolded me. So we came back, and realized you weren’t at home. Big Brother was so scared!”
Gu Chu kept feeling that he was lying.

If you really went skiing and really went to look for me, why are you wearing a shirt? Look at your wet hair and slightly wet shirt. Obviously, you just took a shower and changed your shirt!
If you were really worried about me, would you still have time to go back to your room to take a shower and change your clothes?
Gu Chu’s small nose moved slightly. She smelled a faint smell of blood, and she didn’t know where it came from.
“Where’s Brother Cheng Qi?” Gu Chu asked.
Bobo was stunned and scratched his head. “Big Brother… Big Brother was in a hurry to look for you. He accidentally fell and was covered in mud. He’s taking a shower now.”
The more Gu Chu heard, the more suspicious she became. “It’s snowing outside; where’s the mud? Also, if you really were looking for me, you could’ve called — but your phones were all switched off.”
“That, that’s because my brother and I have no battery left.” The more Bobo said, the less confident he became.
This child is too smart!
I-I can’t be perfunctory.
“Chuchu, I want to go skiing outside. Y-You go play first.” Bobo quickly picked up his coat and rushed out of the house. The more he said, the more loopholes there were, so he simply didn’t say anything.
Chuchu was a six-year-old child, so she shouldn’t understand the horror of the adult world.
Gu Chu stood there with a speechless look on her face. You’re going skiing, and you’re even wearing a shirt underneath. Aren’t you afraid of freezing to death?
Strange, it was really too weird.
Bobo and Cheng Qi must be hiding something.
Gu Chu couldn’t figure it out, so she had to go upstairs first. Upstairs, Cheng Qi had just finished showering when he came out with only a white towel wrapped around his waist.
Seeing Gu Chu’s curious face on the small bed, Cheng Qi’s expression changed slightly. He hurried back to the bathroom and put on his clothes.
Chuchu was still young, so he didn’t want to expose too much in front of her.

“Chuchu, you’re back?” Cheng Qi still looked like the Big Brother next door. He was gentle and had a kind smile.
Gu Chu only felt that he was pretending.
She was suspicious. Could it be that Cheng Qi had some tricks up his sleeve?
He wasn’t as gentle and considerate as he looked on the surface…
“I didn’t see Brother Cheng Qi when I first woke up, so I ran out to look for you guys.” Gu Chu shook her snow-white feet and looked at Cheng Qi with a smile.
“Brother Cheng Qi, did you have fun skiing with Bobo?”
Cheng Qi smiled. “Yes.”
Gu Chu smiled. “That’s good. I still want to go skiing in the afternoon.”
Cheng Qi smiled. “I’ll go with you in the afternoon.”
Gu Chu smiled. “Sure, Brother Cheng Qi is really great.”
The two of them smiled at each other, feeling suspicious in their hearts.
Cheng Qi looked as if nothing had happened and returned to his office area.
He took out his computer and flipped through the documents. He was probably reviewing the company’s new project.
Gu Chu stared at his back and narrowed her eyes.
Her small nose moved slightly. Gu Chu smelled the faint smell of blood in the air again.
