Chapter 427: The Extra One
Shu Yu closed the courtyard door and smiled, "Don't just stand in the courtyard, come in and have a seat. What would you like to drink? Da Hu can pour it for you." As she spoke, Shu Yu's gaze swept over the people in front of her. One, two, three... nine. Yes, there were nine classmates. Since earlier, she had felt that something was off with the number of people. Da Hu had clearly said that eight classmates would be coming, but now there was an extra person? Not only was there an extra person, but this extra person seemed out of place compared to the others, and was even taller than the ten-year-old classmate. Earlier, when they were outside the courtyard, she had thought that this person was a relative accompanying these students to make sure they arrived safely and would return home afterward. But this person had followed them inside without hesitation, and his gaze while surveying their courtyard was quite obvious. Shu Yu found it strange, and then one of the young students in the group embarrassedly said, "This... this is my cousin, Jiang Leshan. He was worried that I'm young and inexperienced, so he came along to take a look. I'm sorry." The young student hung his head, looking quite ashamed, as if he wanted to bury his head in the ground. Shu Yu naturally didn't blame him. "It's fine. Guests are welcome. Come in first." "Thank you." One by one, the group entered the house. The young student walked at the back, and he quietly said to Da Hu, who was with him, "Da Hu, my cousin insisted on coming along, and I couldn't stop him." Da Hu also lowered his voice and said, "It's okay, it's just one more person. But... didn't you and your cousin have no interaction before?" "Yeah, he used to bully me and never played with me. But these past two days, he's been acting strange. He suddenly came to my house and talked to me, saying that brothers should help each other and even bought me candy and snacks. I was scared." The young student patted his chest, looking fearful. "We're not even from the same school. Before, he would avoid me and say that our school would be in trouble. But yesterday, he actually waited for me outside after school and insisted on escorting me home. He did the same thing today." Da Hu comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll protect you." Even though Da Hu was the younger one, he spoke like a little adult. "Let me tell you, my second sister is very capable. With her around, you don't need to be afraid, even if your cousin is a ferocious beast." The young student nodded heavily, "With you saying that, I feel relieved." The two of them entered the main hall hand in hand, where Da Ya had already neatly brought tea from the kitchen. After Da Hu served the classmates and they were seated, he immediately rushed to the kitchen to bring out some snacks. Popcorn needed to be eaten hot, so it hadn't popped yet, but he had prepared other food as well. After Da Hu left, Shu Yu followed him and quickly caught up, asking, "What did your little classmate say to you just now?" Da Hu paused and without hesitation, relayed the exact words to her. In the end, he worriedly said, "Second sister, you said before that when someone is overly attentive without reason, they're either up to no good or they're thieves. Do you think his cousin has some sinister plot?" Shu Yu pondered, feeling that something was indeed amiss. She suddenly remembered when the child introduced his cousin, he mentioned the surname... Jiang. And it had only been these past two days that he had been acting strange. Shu Yu asked, "What's the name of your classmate? Do you know what his parents do?"
