The End Times as a Song

Chapter 404 Masked Man

A tall, thin, masked man in black spoke to another short, fat, masked man in black.

"You idiot, what can you do? Of course, you just keep following them...!"

The fat guy smacked the skinny guy on the head, and scolded him with a tone of disappointment, as if he hadn't expected his son to amount to anything.

"But that woman seems to have noticed us...?"

The skinny younger brother covered his head and stammered a reply to the fat older brother.

"You silly goose, what are you afraid of...?"

The fat brother slapped the skinny brother.

"Although that woman is blind, the maid beside her seems rather difficult to deal with...!"

The skinny guy covered his burning face and stammered a reply.

"Just one spirit servant! What's so difficult about dealing with him...?"

The fat man stared at Zi Lian's figure with ill intent, a smug expression on his face. He wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth and fell into reverie.

"Big brother, big brother...! Should we report this woman's departure from Fangcao Village to the boss?"

The skinny younger brother, oblivious to romance, tugged at the fat older brother's sleeve, interrupting the fat older brother's daydreams about Zi Lian.

"You idiot, what's there to report...! The boss told us to keep an eye on them, to keep an eye on them...! I already told you to follow them, don't talk so much. Keep up...! If you lose them, I'll see how you explain it to the boss...!"

The fat brother turned to the skinny brother with eyes full of anger, slapped him again, leaving the skinny brother completely disoriented. After angrily uttering a sentence, he continued to sneakily follow Xiao Yuanran and Zilian.

"Hey, big brother, wait for me...!"

The skinny younger brother covered his face with a pitiful expression and quickly followed the fat older brother. One fat and one short, one tall and one thin, they secretly followed Xiao Yuanran and Zilian.

No sooner had the two dark figures left than Zheyi arrived. Zheyi sniffed the air, trying to find some clues about Xiao Yuanran.

"Aran...! You've gone too far this time, leaving me without even a trace of your scent. What are you trying to do...?"

Broken Wings looked worried and muttered to himself.

"Uncle Zhe, wait for me!"

Xiong Xi chased after Broken Wing in a disheveled manner.

"Xiong Xi! Hurry up...! If you hadn't been delaying things like this, I should have found A Ran long ago. Now the clues have gone cold again."

Seeing Xiong Xi's disheveled appearance, Zheyi was furious and gave Xiong Xi a severe scolding.

"Uncle Zhe, I know you're worried about Mother Ran...! But I...!"

Xiong Xi looked at Zheyi with a pitiful expression, wanting to explain something.

"You call yourself a bear, not a demon, yet you act like such a coward. Your mother, Ran, hasn't left Fangcao Village in ages. Last time she left to find Huan'er, she forgot me and blinded her. Sigh...! This time, my heart truly...!"

Zheyi interrupted Xiongxi and scolded him. Zheyi's face showed a worried expression, and his tone was filled with resentment that he couldn't hold back. He was so anxious that he couldn't speak.

"Uncle Zhe, don't be angry, it's all my fault...! I just transformed into human form, and I'm not walking properly yet, which delayed your search for Ran's mother."

Xiong Xi obediently lowered his head and admitted his mistake. It was indeed he who delayed the journey of the Broken Wing, and that was an unchangeable fact.

“This is not your fault. If Aran didn’t want you to find her, there was no use in you being fast. She was in a hurry this time and actually attacked us. I was worried and my tone was not good. Don’t hold it against Uncle Zhe.”
