Chapter 1699 New clues
The old man saw this.
I feel a little guilty.
Had she misunderstood this young man before?
This young man seems to have a good relationship with Xiao Li?
"That."
She spoke up.
“Fortunately, all previous payments have been settled.”
The young man looked happy and said, "I just say it's best to get both money and goods."
"Who knows what accidents might happen if I drag you along?"
The young man shook his head.
Then he noticed the old man's strange expression and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
"Oh, what did you just say?"
The young man suddenly said, "Sorry, I didn't hear it."
But he didn't care either.
"Thank you for telling me about it."
"What a shame."
"Weizi is still so young."
"So, you should be smart in your daily life."
After the young man said a few words to himself, he smiled at the old man and said, "Old lady, since Wei Zi is no longer here, then I'm fine too."
"I'm leaving."
"Goodbye."
"Hey-"
The old man stretched out his hand to stop the young man.
But the young man took big steps, and after a while, the young man's figure disappeared from the old man's sight.
".Alas~"
The old man took his hand back.
Then sighed.
What friend?
This young man was simply baffled.
ah.
The old man looked stunned.
There were a few wry smiles on his face.
In the end, she still didn't know what the young man wanted from Xiao Li?
However, nothing matters anymore.
Xiao Li is no longer here.
Death is like a lamp going out.
When a person dies, there is nothing.
And the life of the living goes on.
She shook her head.
"This is what it is."
The old man felt a little regretful, "If you had come earlier, you could have asked him face to face."
Meng Jixi also had some regrets about this.
However, it was an unexpected surprise to find new clues.
He looked at the girl and said, "Xiuxiu, it's really thanks to you that I lost something this time."
The girl blinked.
Thanks to her?
It seems... a little bit.
The girl pursed her lips and smiled.
The guilt I felt for wasting a lot of everyone's time because of my carelessness was relieved a lot.
I also understood the meaning of what Master Xiao said before.
……
"I guess we'd like to thank you for losing the pendant."
……
Is that so?
Sometimes things are really coincidental and unexpected.
The girl was very emotional.
The big almond eyes were curved.
But such a coincidence is really great.
……
"Old man, thank you for telling us this."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"You're welcome."
The wrinkles at the corners of the old man's eyes have relaxed.
These young people are much more polite.
In contrast, the old man looked at Xiao Xiao and others with more loving expressions.
……
"Old man, let's go."
After everything he wanted to ask was asked, Xiao Xiao said goodbye, "Please close the door."
"Hey, good."
The old man nodded in response.
Then he seemed to think of something, and the old man's face showed a bit of curiosity, "Are you going to find that young man?"
"Yeah."
Meng Jixi was the first to speak out.
The old man's words verified his suspicion.
There is something evil about that man.
Met Li Wei again.
Meng Jixi would not believe it if no clues could be found from that man to solve the case.
Meng Jixi clenched his hands hanging by his sides.
My heart was a little excited.
He took a deep breath.
The mountains and rivers are full of doubts and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are dark and the flowers are bright in another village.
A new breakthrough emerged. ……
"Oh."
The old man nodded.
"Then you go quickly."
"I won't waste your time anymore, old lady."
The old man waved to everyone.
"Thank you, old man."
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye grandma."
Everyone said goodbye to the old man one after another.
Seeing several young people hurrying downstairs, the old man smiled.
What a motivated young man.
……
Just as he was about to walk out of the unit building, Meng Jixi paused.
He turned around and looked at Xiao Xiao.
"Master Xiao."
"Where should we find the man just now?"
There was some certainty in his tone, and he had no doubt that Master Xiao would know the answer to this question.
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"Follow me."
……
Half an hour later, Xiao Xiao stopped at the door of a chess and card room.
"Here?"
Meng Jixi looked around.
This is a chess and card room opened in a community.
Next to it is a small shop selling drinks and snacks.
An aunt was lying on a recliner watching TV.
The electric fan beside me was blowing loudly.
……
Meng Jixi stepped forward and opened the door of the chess and card room.
Suddenly, the air-conditioning enveloped the noisy people and the sound of mahjong playing rang in the ears of several people.
This movement also attracted the attention of the shop owner.
"Hey, who are you?"
The landlady stood up and walked quickly to a few young people.
"What's the matter?"
She looked at these young people suspiciously.
"This is the chess and card room."
She opened this chess and card room in a room in her small shop.
Mainly, the business of small shops is barely adequate now.
She just wanted to open a chess and card room to have more sources of money.
Because her chess and card room is located in a community, the visitors are basically residents of the community.
And they are all middle-aged and elderly people who are elderly, have leisure time and have some money.
Young people are unlikely to come to play in her chess and card room.
Especially these few young people who don't look like they can play cards.
Like the one just now, she wouldn't find it so strange.
But for these few, the landlady frowned.
Yes...
An idea flashed in the landlady's mind.
She thought of a possibility.
"Are you here to find someone?"
There have been children who came here to visit their grandfather for dinner before...
……
"Yeah."
Meng Jixi nodded, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "The boss lady is so smart."
The landlady couldn't help but smile broadly, "Oh, what are you so smart about?"
"Today's young people just know how to talk."
"Then you go in."
The landlady waved her hand and said, "Close the door when you enter."
"It's hot now."
"If you keep the door open for a little longer, the person inside will scream."
She looked around the room.
There aren't many card tables inside.
Just three tables.
Everyone was immersed in playing cards seriously.
Except that the door was pushed open at first and they glanced out.
Later, they looked like they were "not listening to what's going on outside the window".
The landlady smiled and moved away from the door.
She lay back on the recliner.
After knowing the purpose of several young people, she did not pay more attention to them.
……
The room was a bit smoky.
Chi Xiuchuan frowned, turned around and was about to say something to Chi Xiuke when he saw his sister walking into the house closely following Master Xiao.
He shook his head, looking a little helpless.
But he didn't say anything, but followed the girl into the house.
Then he turned and closed the door.
ps: Thank you Qianqiong Qianjue for the reward~(*︶*)!
