Chapter 97 Meeting?

"What are you doing?!"

Someone is coming... Li Qing put down his hand without leaving a trace and stood up with a smile.

At the same time, Li Qing did not continue holding Wang Ping's hand. It was meaningless. Continuing to hold it might make him more likely to be suspected.

He couldn't be discovered if he didn't give him the recorder and video recorder. Otherwise, even if Li Qing made an excuse of shooting a movie, he would definitely be suspected. Which director would use hidden camera equipment to shoot a movie?
Li Qing is certainly not afraid of ordinary people's suspicion. He doesn't intend to do anything illegal, so he can get away even if the police are called.

What he was really afraid of was the imaginary enemy - [Chimera]!
Li Qing turned around and looked at the person who asked the question. He looked like an ordinary middle-aged man, and was looking at them with a vigilant look.

"Excuse me, my name is Li Qing, and I'm a member of the crew that's filming a movie nearby recently."

"Ah, I don't know if you've heard this before. We saw some kids playing nearby and just said hello."

"No idea."

Li Qing used a universal excuse. No matter whether it was the imaginary enemy in his mind - [Chimera], just don't give him any strange labels.

The middle-aged man still looked at Li Qing with suspicion. Perhaps he thought about it and found that he was indeed the crew member who had been heard of in the village recently.

He didn't continue to look at her, but introduced himself.

"My name is Wang Wei. It's just a little strange to see strangers."

"You know, we rarely see strangers here. It's really a pity. I don't know what your crew saw in our village that you even came here to film with such fanfare."

The big man named Wang Wei talked a lot, saying that he rarely saw strangers and that he couldn't understand why they had to film here. He also asked Li Qing if the crew was short of people and if he could also go in and make a cameo appearance, even without being paid.

There was a lot to talk about anyway, and Li Qing could only put on a polite smile and couldn't get a word in at all.

"Okay, don't disturb them at work."

I don’t know why, maybe because he felt that the children were an eyesore, Wang Wei waved his hands at the group of children, signaling that they could leave.

"Go home, don't run around, do you hear me?"

The children scattered like birds and beasts. They were most familiar with the village paths and soon disappeared from Li Qing's sight.

After driving the child away, Wang Wei said to Li Qing with a shy face:

"You little brat, you have never seen the world before. You will rush over to watch the fun of everything you see. Ignore them."

"It's okay, it's okay. Kids all like to watch the fun." Li Qing waved his hands quickly.

Both sides were very polite, and the atmosphere in the air was a bit strange.

"Haha, we won't bother you anymore."

Without further ado, Li Qing suggested leaving.

After saying that, without waiting for Wang Wei to be polite, he half turned around, took Chu Qingcheng's hand, and pulled her towards the crew.

Chu Qingcheng felt a little uncomfortable and twisted her hands, but they were locked tightly by Li Qing and she couldn't break free.

But when Chu Qingcheng wanted to say something, she caught a glimpse of Li Qing's profile.

With his back to Wang Wei, the chuckle had disappeared, and there was only seriousness on his face without any other expression.

"Hey, we can talk more. Is there really no role suitable for me, Director Li?"

"Haha, my words don't count. I'm sorry, let's talk again next time we have a chance." Wang Wei said politely behind his back, and Li Qing also responded politely. Everything seemed normal, but Chu Qingcheng always felt a little uncomfortable.

It's like both sides are acting?
As for what Li Qing is thinking now... he is thinking.

Did he say he was the director of the crew?

The person he just talked about was clearly a staff member... Who would think that an ordinary person is the director?
Why did Wang Wei call him...Director Li so easily?
Of course, maybe when Wang Wei was watching the fun near the crew, he happened to hear an employee calling Li Qing, "Director Li"... The assistant director is also the director, so naturally he is also Director Li.

However, Li Qing was more willing to believe in another option—they knew Li Qing, and they had read Li Qing’s information…

They are——【Chimera】?
But why does he care about Chu Qingcheng so much that he needs to deliberately ignore her?
This is something Li Qing couldn't figure out for the time being. If [Chimera] really noticed them, shouldn't the person who was more likely to be concerned by them be Li Qing, the person in charge and planner?
Chu Qingcheng just invested, so she shouldn't have as much hatred as Li Qing, right?
Having said that, Li Qing could already confirm one thing in his heart.

Yucun, there is really a big problem!
The 'mother' that Wang Ping mentioned could not come out, and Wang Wei who suddenly appeared just after spending a little more time with the child.

Wang Weiwei didn't even notice that although his tone of voice was normal, his clothes were wet with sweat.

Although the weather in July is very hot, Wang Wei's sweat is still abnormal unless he does strenuous exercise - like the traces of running.

Someone saw Li Qing and Chu Qingcheng talking to the children and was afraid that they might know something, so they informed Wang Wei.

Then Wang Wei hurried over again, pretending to be there by chance, just to interrupt Li Qing's meeting with the child.

After all, children speak without restraint... Who knows what a child will see and what he or she will say?

And it just so happened that Li Qing did hear something.

Can't stay here any longer!

Li Qing gritted his teeth, not caring whether Wang Wei had any relationship with [Chimera], or whether the 'mother' Wang Ping mentioned was a missing person who had been abducted and sold.

They, and everyone in the crew, must leave quickly!

Call the police! You must call the police immediately!
Before, Li Qing still had doubts, worried that Yucun was just a little backward, but it was actually nothing.

But at this point, further delay is no longer allowed!

"Li Qing?"

This was the first time Chu Qingcheng saw Li Qing showing such a complicated expression, whether it was discussing a contract or anything else.

In fact, he usually looked calm and composed, with at most a little embarrassment of being unable to adapt.

Now, for the first time, he looked like he was in trouble.

Just when Li Qing was about to go back and leave Yu Village, Wang Wei's honest and simple expression disappeared instantly, and his face turned gloomy.

He turned around and wandered in the alleys of the village. As a local, he certainly knew how to get around.

Soon, he came to a dark corner. There were several broken iron doors that were pulled by iron chains, and above his head was a rusty iron sheet, a roof piled with wood and rags.
This is a great secret base and a favorite among children in Yucun.

At this time, several children that Li Qing was familiar with were being pinned to the ground by several older children, unable to move.

Some of them were still tightly holding the candies that Chu Qingcheng gave them.

"Okay, let's see who the naughty kid is."
