Wang Xiaoni was caught off guard for a moment while Li Banlian pleaded with a sobbing voice.
"Biaozi went to the back mountain with a few friends last night, hoping to catch some rabbits to present to Grandma. He only went because he saw that Grandma's appetite was poor and thought that wild rabbit meat would be tender. But who could have expected that there was a military camp hidden in the back hill. Curious, they climbed the wall to take a look, and were discovered. They had to run back in a panic, almost scared witless."
"I heard early this morning that the village chief was going door to door to check who was missing from each household last night. My Biaozi has a good heart..."
Li Banlian's words were sincere, but not even Yue Xiaohu would be fooled by such a lie.
He couldn't help but mutter, "Who goes to the back mountain in the middle of the night to hunt rabbits? Do they have night vision or something..."
