Chapter 42: Helpless

It was such a draining night that I really didn't have the energy to figure out what was going on.

I glanced back at the bathing center. From the outside, this house is actually quite ordinary, except for being a little dilapidated, it doesn't look like a boat at all, and I don't know how to understand Qin Yiheng saying that this is a ferry.

However, after observing it for a while, I did figure out something. After all, this house used to be used for the skin and meat business, and if it was not secured, there would be a secret passage to evade inspection and escape, so Qin Yiheng was gone, and it was very likely that he came out of that secret passage. Thinking about it, I felt that it was necessary to come back when I went back to recuperate.

I had a little breakfast on this street nearby, and sent a text message to Qin Yiheng, sending the address of the hotel where I was staying, and telling him to meet me there. If it is true that his phone is broken, he can also receive it when he gets a new one.

At breakfast, I asked the owner of the breakfast shop about the bathing center, and the news I got was no different from what I had heard before. However, unexpectedly, the boss told me that the land in this area had been bought by a developer a long time ago, and that it would be demolished a long time ago, but it has not started until now. Many of the storefronts on this street heard the wind and quietly expanded or built simple houses, in order to make more money when the demolition was carried out, but now there is no movement at all.

I heard my boss say this, and I probably thought about it. Although this area is not in the city center, the location is actually good, and it will be a lot of money if the demolition starts, and it may be that the developer's funds are not fully prepared. So, I casually asked, which developer it was. I didn't think that the boss's answer made me feel excited, and he told me that it was called Hongda Group.

To be honest, when I heard the boss's answer, I really wanted to spit out his face of preserved eggs and lean porridge. Damn, this house is not only related to Yuan Zhen, but also involves Hongda Group!

I thought about it for a while, it shouldn't be the Yuan Zhen of Hongda Group who signed the contract with that old man, otherwise isn't this a contradiction? It is obviously impossible for his group to buy the land and sell the house on the land.

But if another Yuan Zhen did it, what purpose did he have? Could it be that they also bought it for investment when they heard the rumors that it was going to be demolished? As a result, I didn't tear it down after waiting for a long time, I couldn't wait any longer, or did I change hands on the house when the funds needed to be turnover? But in my concept, he and Hongda Group should be together.

I walked out into the street and looked around, and sure enough, as the owner of the breakfast shop said, many of the stores have expanded on their own, making each house look weird, and even this breakfast shop is part of the expansion of a clothing store next to it.

I lit a cigarette, but I didn't wake up at all, and my head started to get dizzy. Many of the houses in my hands will also face the problem of demolition, so I am relatively familiar with it. I pondered for a long time, and suddenly I felt that I had opened up a little bit of a trick. I said in my heart, Yuan Zhen didn't buy this house just to be a nail household, specifically to prevent Hongda Group from developing this piece of land? Then his purpose was achieved, and the house had no use value, so he sold it?

If this is analyzed, the reason why Hongda Group has not started construction until now will it be the reason? Because there is no need to start construction anymore. Could it be that it has something to do with recording fetal dreams?

I was frightened by my own thoughts, which were too big if my speculation was to be believed. This piece of land is less to say hundreds of millions, spend hundreds of millions, just to record the fetal dream in that house? What the is this dream so worthy? Besides, wouldn't it be enough to buy that bathing center directly? Even if you want to hide it for some reason, it won't take the whole piece down, right?

The more I think about it, the bigger my head becomes, and it's good that Qin Yiheng is here at this time.

After breakfast, my head was even more dizzy, and I wondered if it was the concussion caused by the knock last night. Back at the hotel, I put my phone to my ear and fell asleep.

Because I was worried that the phone would ring, I didn't sleep too deeply, and barely slept until more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

After getting up, I tentatively called Qin Yiheng again, but he still didn't hear from him. Now he hasn't been missing for long, and I'm afraid no one will take care of him if he calls the police. And I calmed down and thought about it, he was probably the one who killed the other party, so I was a little worried that calling the police would hurt him. But I definitely couldn't wait so long, so I went to the bathing center again while it was still dark.

This time, I searched carefully for more than two hours, but I didn't see any secret passages and mechanisms at all, so I had to go back to the hotel. I was completely helpless.

I don't know how long I'll have to wait here, and most importantly, I can't even find anyone who can help with the analysis. In the end, I hesitated and could only call the old man.

The old man's tone was still the same, and it couldn't help but make people feel a little chilled when they heard it. I told him that we had already explored the house and found a lot, but there were some questions in it, and I hoped he would answer them clearly. I didn't dare to tell him about Qin Yiheng's disappearance, because I was also worried that this house was a trap set by the old man, and I couldn't tell him that we had been tricked.

The old man didn't react on the phone, just told me lightly to come back to meet and talk, and ended the conversation.

I didn't delay for a moment when I put down the phone, and immediately bought a return ticket. I left a message for Qin Yiheng at the front desk of the hotel, and I went straight to the airport.

On the way back, I was restless, and when I got off the plane, I didn't even go home, so I made an appointment with the old man again, and the place was still that teahouse.

When I arrived at the teahouse, I found that the old man had not yet arrived, so I lay on the table and recuperated for a while. After waiting for seven or eight minutes, the old man pushed the door in, did not sit down, told me to get up and go out with him, until he came downstairs and took me into his car.

To be honest, it was a real risk for me to follow the car. However, I really had no other choice but to pretend to be quite calm and look out the window, but in fact, my heart was beating so fast.

The car didn't drive long, and after two or three blocks it stopped. I got out of the car and took a look, and it was a famous villa area close to the city center. Building a villa in such a location, the price of the house can be imagined, so this is a serious rich area. I've been hoping to buy a house here, but I've never met it.

I followed the old man into the villa area on foot, and I didn't understand why he got out of the car. We had walked a long way before the old man took me into a villa.

The furnishings and decoration of the interior of the villa disappointed me, and it was not as good as I imagined, probably because the house in this villa area was relatively long, and I couldn't see it outside, and I felt rustic when I entered the house. The old man was not polite to me, and sat down on the sofa in the living room and began to drink tea. Instead of sitting down immediately, I stood around and took a brief look.

The house is basically in Chinese style, but it is much worse than the house that the old man let us see before. In the main hall of the house, there is a large calligraphy calligraphy, and I can recognize the words on it at a glance, which reads "One Household for All People".

Without the permission of the master, I could not go any further, so I could only sit down first, wondering whether it was better for me to ask first, or to wait for the old man to open his mouth first. Just as I was thinking about it, the old man asked me first, "What about that friend of yours?" ”

I was still a little flustered when he asked, because I didn't know whether to tell the truth or a lie. Then, I decided to prevaricate and tell the old man that the friend had something to do and didn't come.

The old man looked at me noncommittally, continued to drink tea, and when he had finished a bowl, he got up and told me to follow him upstairs. That's when I saw the rest of the house.

The upstairs decoration is better than the downstairs, but it's not much better. I followed the old man into a room, and saw that the furnishings should be a study. The old man took a book from the shelf, flipped through it, then handed me a note and asked me, "Do you know this thing?" ”

I took the note and glanced at it, completely stunned. It's not the first time I've seen this note, because it was written by Fang Wanjin when Qin Yiheng took me to find Fang Wanjin.
