Chapter 8: 008: Trails
Listening to the wails of the students in the class, Si Baiye shrugged his shoulders.
As soon as the front foot and Xiao Ling agreed to meet, the back foot team announced the retirement notice, which did not surprise her.
As long as they reach a certain age, professional players will register for retirement, and retirement marks that all the honors and achievements of players have become a thing of the past, which is a helpless and powerless choice.
……
Chi Jian sat in front of the computer, looking intently at a table on the computer screen.
"Chi Dashao, the other party has already agreed." Xiao Ling pushed open the door and said to the man in front of the computer, "I'll let him come to the base at eight o'clock in the evening, and we'll talk to each other in detail then!" ”
"You just need to be in charge of this." Chi Jianmian minimized the table on the screen without changing his color, and his voice sounded faint, "I'm not at the base at night. ”
Xiao Ling was a little confused: "Don't you see your new teammates?" ”
"I've got dinner in the evening." Chi Jian leaned back in the chair and rubbed her temples a little tiredly, "I can't get out." ”
Xiao Ling also understood that the man in front of him who was about the same age as him was carrying a lot of burdens, he sighed lightly, raised his hand and patted Chi Jian's shoulder: "Got it, then you go, I will explain the relevant matters to the other party in the evening." ”
Chi Jian raised his eyes to look at Xiao Ling, paused, and raised his lips slightly: "Well, I'll invite you to drink another day." ”
"It's a deal." Xiao Ling left the office with a smile.
It wasn't until the door was closed and the footsteps of the people outside the door faded away that Chi Jian reopened the form.
The form contains a person's personal information, but there are some areas that are blank, such as date of birth, home address, etc.
In the name column, there is only one word: night.
and a photograph that looks a little blurry, and can barely be seen as a girl in a sweatshirt with waist-length hair, wearing a mask on her face, and her face is barely recognizable except for a pair of dark and clear-eyed eyes.
But judging from her height and figure, the girl was probably only six or seven years old when she took this photo.
"Dad, is this person you asked me to find no longer in this world?" Ji Jian looked at the photo on this form and muttered to herself.
It has been five years since his father began to ask him to look for this girl.
The father said that the girl was his best friend's daughter. Zhijiao has been missing for many years, and has even been judged by the court to be an accidental death, but the only child left behind has not been found.
Aside from the fact that the girl's name has the word night in it, the other information is unknown.
Ji Jian's gaze shifted from the photo to the necklace placed next to the computer, and he picked it up and looked at it carefully.
The buckle on the necklace has been loosened, the chain is dull, and even the jewelry made of sterling silver, if not cleaned regularly, will lose its luster like dusty pearls.
If I can see you again, I'll give it back to you.
Chi Jane put the necklace in a drawer.
……
At six o'clock in the evening, Nolandi finally ushered in the dusk of today.
Si Baiye walked out of the school gate listlessly with his satchel, looked at the sky for a while, and sighed.
So she searched for a day, but she still couldn't find the necklace.
What she lost, she probably couldn't get back—as if she had never seen what her father was like.
