Returning home, Xu Taiping greeted Xia Jinxuan and the rest before heading upstairs to his own room.
Xu Taiping pulled his suitcase out from under the bed and opened it.
There were clothes in the luggage case. It looked normal and sparse, but when Xu Taiping pressed his hand on the luggage case, the luggage suddenly changed.
One by one, these barriers appeared in front of Xu Taiping, and then they automatically spread out.
There were all sorts of props placed in the compartment.
Any agent or hitman would be envious of these props. One must know that these were the most advanced equipment in the world, such as infrared detectors and sound wave locators.
These items were all priceless items and would drive many people crazy to obtain them on the black market. Only some people with military backgrounds would be able to get such advanced equipment.
Xu Taiping took them all out and put them all in a plastic bag.
When all these things were packed, Xu Taiping took them out the door and went downstairs.
"I'll walk around, you guys can play with me." Just like before, Xu Taiping greeted the women and then disappeared.
"This guy, how does he come and go?" Xia Jinxuan frowned.
"He might have gone to steal someone." Song Jia giggled.
"There are so many people here, there are still two that he didn't steal. What else are we going to steal?" Xia Jinxuan asked.
"What two didn't steal, and I didn't get any better?" Song Jia said in dissatisfaction.
"Aren't you going to do it sooner or later?" Xia Jinxuan asked.
"Who said that? Even if you did not steal it sooner or later, you just did not steal it. Don't confuse me with you! " Song Jia said.
"Sure, I'll tell you the day you're stolen!" Xia Jinxuan said.
Xu Taiping didn't walk too far away. With his family as the center, he walked a hundred meters and then circled around the house nonstop. The bag in his hand also became smaller and smaller.
More than an hour later, the bag in Xu Taiping's hand was completely empty.
Xu Taiping put the bag away with satisfaction, put it in his pocket, and walked towards his house.
It was already afternoon and it was New Year's Eve today. Xu Taiping still had to hurry back to get something to eat tonight.
This time, the most important thing for him to come back was to celebrate the new year at home. Xu Taiping had already bought quite a few things before, and tonight was destined to be another feast for the Taotie.
"Taiping, where did you go?" Xia Jinxuan hurriedly asked when she saw Xu Taiping return.
"I was just strolling around. What happened?" Xu Taiping asked.
"You've come and gone a few times already, are you just going for a stroll?" Xia Jinxuan curiously asked.
"Otherwise? Am I going to steal people? I didn't even steal any pretty girls here, can I go out and steal people? " Xu Taiping asked.
"You really are one family. The words you speak are all the same." Song Jia said.
"Is that so?!" Xu Taiping smiled, then said, "From now on, don't go out, there are still a lot of things to do. Tonight's dinner is the main event, so you all have come to help. Of course, with the exception of Sister Guan, what else can you do?"
"I'll help too!" Guan He said with a smile, "I don't know how long it has been since I last had a proper meal!"
"Alright, then from now on, it will be the battle for the New Year's Eve meal! All the comrades are getting ready to get into position! " Xu Taiping shouted.
Xia Jin Xuan covered her mouth and snickered. Song Jia rolled her eyes at Xu Taiping, while Emma looked excitedly at Xu Taiping. Guan He also looked at him with a gentle smile.
"Cough cough, why don't you cooperate with me!" Xu Taiping said awkwardly.
"Fine fine fine, I'll cooperate with you!" Xia Jinxuan smiled and stood up, "Please give your instructions, Chief."
"Jin Xuan, you're in charge of boiling water. You and I will cook ingredients together. Emma, clean up the house for a living. Sister Guan, you're in charge of cooking!" Xu Taiping said.
"Yes sir!"
Xu Taiping was bustling with activity. In the forest a few kilometers away from Crimson Flame Town, a group of people were gathered together.
This group of people were wearing camouflage clothing, almost blending in with the surrounding scenery.
In the middle of the crowd, one person was kneeling on the ground while the others were lying on the ground.
"I really don't know where Chong Ming Hua went. After the three of us were stopped at the Scarlet Flame Town's police station, I was locked up and the two of them were sent to the hospital. From beginning to end, we never touched Chong Ming Hua again, really!" Sun Jie knelt on the ground and said excitedly to the few people around him.
The faces of the surrounding people were all covered by masks, making it difficult to see their appearances. However, one could still feel the killing intent exuding from their bodies.
This kind of killing intent was something that only people who had experienced life and death battles would have.
"Then tell me, where did Chong Ming flower go? We searched the entire police station, but we didn't find any Chongming flowers. Or was he hidden by someone in the police station? I don't think that anyone would know about Chongming Flower in such a remote place. " The leader of the men said in a cold voice.
"Brother Mo, I swear to god, I really didn't hide Chong Ming Hua! I didn't even have that time!" Sun Jie said excitedly.
The man called Brother Demoness stood in front of Sun Yiyi, looked at him and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "Even if I gave you 10 guts, you still wouldn't dare to disappoint the boss."
"Yeah, that Chong Ming Flower must have been taken away by someone. Ah, I remember now. Chong Ming Flower might have been taken away by that person!" Sun Jie shouted excitedly.
"Who?" Brother Devil asked.
"It's a man. I don't know his name. Ah, I just realized that there must be something wrong with that man!" Sun Jie said excitedly.
"What problem?" Brother Devil asked.
"Do you remember one time when I went to help the boss find some money grass?" "Later on, someone stole the money grass and killed my men as well. Because of this incident, the boss even cut off one of my fingers!" Sun Yat-sen said.
"At that time, if I didn't protect you, you wouldn't have been able to take the grass for yourself. You were not as simple as just having your finger cut off." Brother Mo said coldly.
Yes, my money grass was stolen by someone, a man in his thirties was following a woman in his twenties. A few days ago, I met that man again in Crimson Flame Town, and when that man was just passing by the road, I just happened to see him, and I thought it was just a coincidence, but I was surprised. I thought it was just a coincidence, I didn't expect that today I met that person again at the entrance of the police station, and that person was very powerful. Sun Jie said excitedly.
"We can bear witness to this. Indeed, a person who didn't look like a police officer appeared. Furthermore, we did see that person by the roadside a few days ago!" A person lying on the ground said.
"So you're saying that someone is targeting us?" Brother Mo said.
"It could be, but it could also be a coincidence. But no matter what, I think the person who took away Chong Ming Hua is most likely that person!" Sun Yat-sen said.
"Is that person from Crimson Flame Town?" Brother Devil asked.
"We don't know either, but that person was playing dice with someone in a restaurant in the Scarlet Flame Town. He should be from the town!" Sun Yat-sen said.
"Since it's someone from the town, then it's simple." Brother Mo sneered and said, "The boss' stuff can't be taken down by anyone just because they want to be taken down! Group Two, send Justice and the others out of here! "
"Yes sir!" The people beside Brother Mo nodded.
"Team One, follow me to the town. Find out the identity of that person. Tonight, there is going to be a hunt." Brother Mo said.
"Yes sir!"
Eunuch Sun began to walk down the mountain.
The golden rays of the setting sun illuminated the entirety of Crimson Flame Town.
There was already no one on the road to Crimson Flame Town. At this time, everyone had already returned home, and the family was happily preparing their New Year's Eve meal.
The significance of the New Year's Eve meal to the Chinese is no less than that of the turkey dinner to the foreigners.
However, because of their work and residence, many of their relatives rarely get together. Only during New Year's Eve dinner did everyone put down their work, leave their families, return home, gather together for a good meal, and then talk about the events of the past year.
The New Year's Eve meal was very warm. When night fell and the lanterns were lit, the fragrance of food began to waft up from the streets.
Xu Taiping's house was brightly lit.
Inside the kitchen, a group of people were busy.
"Fish can be served!"
"The ribs are ready!"
"The dumplings will be in the pot, the dumplings will be in the pot!"
Cheers and laughter filled the entire kitchen, while dishes were placed on the table outside the kitchen.
Xu Taiping had gotten a television set from who knows where, and it was currently broadcasting Central TV's program.
It was currently around 7 PM and the Spring Festival Gala had not started yet. At the moment, Central TV was broadcasting New Year's Eve meal from all over the country.
The New Year's Eve meal differed depending on the region. However, no matter how different the dishes were, the affection and reunion within the New Year's Eve meal were the same.
When the clock struck eight, the Spring Festival Gala officially began. The steaming hot dumplings were finally out of the pot.
Xu Taiping brought the dumplings to the dining room and placed them in the middle of the table.
The four women, Xia Jinxuan, Song Jia, Emma and Guan He, sat around the table.
"This is our first New Year's Eve meal. It doesn't matter if any of us leave or stay in a few years' time. Today's moment will be worth remembering for the rest of our lives." Xu Taiping sighed.
"We will be together forever!" Xia Jinxuan said.
"Right, for life!" Emma added.
"If we can be together for the rest of our lives, that would be great!" Xu Taiping smiled as he picked up his wine glass, "Come, let's all go together!"
"Let's go!" Everyone raised their glasses and clinked it against each other.
The melodious sound of clinking glasses accompanied by laughter resounded under the night sky.
