Come With Me

Chapter 85 I never like you

I suddenly doubt if I am in the small village with inconvenient transportation and few people come to visit.

It seems that a month is really short. Standing in front of me, Robbie is still as cold as before, looking at me as if I were a stranger.

But this time, he didn't wear a suit but a casual suit.

Maybe I have been influenced by Vann and Xenia, so the first sentence I said to Robbie was, "How about you? What is your identity here? Are you also my assistant?"

"It's not assistant but entertainment agent," said Robbie dryly

As soon as he finished his words, Robbie turned around and took the lead. I was really in a very bad mood at that time.

If people really think that they are my assistant and entertainment agent, they will laugh at me.

Xenia held my hand and I walked towards a courtyard at the end of the village with the other three aliens.

I looked at the place and couldn't help asking Robbie, who was opening the door with a key, "Where are we now?"

"This is a house I found from the villagers. I said I was in the film crew, and they kept a room for me excitedly. This is the end of the village. Except for going up the mountain, very few people pass by. It's very quiet."

"I don't mean that. Can you tell me why you are here?"

I was not so naive as to believe that the reason why the three of them came here was that they missed me.

As soon as we entered the yard, Vann closed the door and deliberately looked both sides of the road.

Xenia led me inside. The house was so dilapidated. There was nothing but a few quilts and two old- fashioned boxes.

Xenia pursed her lips and complained, "This place is too rough. How can we live here?"

"As I told you a long time ago, you insisted on coming with us," Vann said.

"I'm not here with you. I'm here to visit Jasmine and be her assistant!"

Xenia and Vann were still talking glibly, but my mind was messed up by a great number of questions, and I couldn't get them out of my head. So I asked again, "Can you make it clear to me?"

Vann nodded and sat down with his back against the window.

Just like afraid of being overheard, he looked outside.

"Jasmine, I am asking you. You have been here for such a long time. Have you found anyone or any family unusual?"

Vann's question came as a surprise to me. "No, the people here are honest and friendly, and people are easy to get along with. I didn't find anything unusual. Why, why do you ask this?"

"Here is the thing. We have caught a kidnapper few days ago. He told us that a woman whom we lose contact with in the city had been bought here. But he didn't remember the source of the woman whom he had sold. The first thing I came here was to get in touch with the local government. I hope they can cooperate with our rescue. Then is to make a first investigation and to get to know more about the

woman. If we can find out the missing people, then we can avoid the missing people. It's out of the way. It's a remote area and all the families here have close connection. They all have a strong sense of the outside world, so it's likely that we will encounter the obstruction if we take people away."

I've seen some similar news before, so I understand why Vann was worried about that.

"But I don't think anyone would do such business in this village. I think they are well behaved."

"These men bought women to be wives and have children to carry on their family name. Their intention is simple. But it doesn't mean that their simple intention is not a crime and they are bad people. After all, they don't have legal awareness."

"So you took advantage of me to hide your identity, right here?"

Hearing that, Vann shrugged and said, "Yes, I think so."

"I understand that you are a cop, but at least you have a reasonable motive."

Hearing that, Vann pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "That is right. That's what I want to say."

I can't help but look at the cool Robbie, "What about you? You are not a policeman. What makes you pretend to be my entertainment agent?"

"As I said, my ideal goal was to be a police in the past. But now I have no chance. I just wanted to have a try."

I did not expect that Robbie would give me such a lame reason.

"Since you and Rogelio have come out, who is going to take care of the business of the company?"

It was obvious that he didn't know that Rogelio was here as well, so Robbie frowned and asked, "Is Rogelio here?"

"He came here to visit Amy who arrived last night. Rogelio came here at noon today, a little earlier than you."

"I feel like we're going to travel with many friends. It's funny," Xenia laughed.

I kept an eye on Robbie's face, but I didn't find any change. His face was always cold.

Vann said to me again, "From tomorrow on, we will investigate in secret. You and the people here are more familiar than us, so please help me pay more attention to it and if there is anything suspicious, tell me. Even if it is just a guess, it doesn't matter."

"There aren't many people left. The work won't be too hard."

"It's easy to investigate if it has no restrictions on the woman's body. But you haven't found anything unusual till now since the crew has been here for so long. I guess if this woman didn't choose to stay voluntarily over time, her freedom would have been restricted and we wouldn't have found her so easily."

Vann was usually not a serious person. But his analysis was reasonable.

Xenia rubbed her stomach and said, "I'm hungry."

Vann came down from the bed, put on his shoes and said, "Let's go. We should eat together with others."

I stopped them, "Hey, guys. You're not real members of the casting team. Why do you eat with other members of the crew?"

"Such a big crew won't ask us to pay the meal, will they? Let's go."

I remembered the situation saw them just now, and I asked Vann, "Does director Max know the purpose of your trip?"

"I don't know. It's better to keep little people to know this thing. Don't cause more trouble."

"Did you talk nonsense that made him decide to keep me here?"

"Isn't it a good thing?"

"No, of course not," I stared at Vann and replied.

"Why are you so angry? You don't seem to welcome us at all."

I didn't hate them in my heart, but they made me break my words to Rogelio. Thinking of this, it was difficult for me to be happy to their coming.

"In his eyes, we are never the one he wants to see," said Robbie, who had been silent all this time.

The two of us looked at each other. His meaningful words made me very uncomfortable.

"At least you're not the one I want to see," I replied Robbie indifferently. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
