Chapter 22: The same person who has fallen in the end of the world
The mountain village streets outside the mansion began to get more and more crowded. The feeling of early summer was getting stronger and stronger, and the sun at noon was so hot that it made people feel nervous.
The eaves of the arcade cleverly block the direct sunlight, but there is a bit of shade.
Outside the shop in an ordinary building, Li Yu kept looking in. Since Jiang Hao entered in the morning, no one has come out. What kind of shameful activities are hidden in this ordinary shop?
Anxious emotions were gnawing at her heart, and her hands gripping the corners of the white Roman columns of the arcade became tighter and tighter. Someone happened to come out of the store, and she subconsciously shrank back, fearing that others would doubt her.
The doubts in my heart became more and more serious. I was worried that something bad might happen to Jiang Hao, and I was afraid that he would come out next moment.
Compared with the restlessness outside the house, the cold and quiet situation in the mansion is suffocating.
The mysterious man picked up his pipe, stuffed some tobacco into it, struck a match, and smoke suddenly filled the air.
Although they let Jiang Hao go, Jiang Hao didn't want to be detained here without any explanation and left inexplicably.
"You detained me without saying a word and then let me go. There has to be an explanation, right?"
The man with gold-rimmed glasses saw his partner smoking and didn't respond, so he said, "Just leave if I ask you to. Don't regret it if you can't leave later."
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly thrust the receipt he was holding back into Jiang Hao's hand, nudging him to leave.
Jiang Hao stood there as firmly as a magic needle, unmoved.
"Ha, you really have the guts." Seeing the way Jiang Hao was willing to put himself in danger just to get a clear understanding of everything, the slender man put down his pipe, stood up, walked over to him and patted his shoulder.
Jiang Hao glanced at them and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "Why are you locking me up?"
The mysterious man bypassed Jiang Hao and walked into the side hall. Looking through the gap in the paper window, he saw the mysterious man taking out something like a ledger from the drawer.
He walked through the side hall and walked up to Jiang Hao. He sighed softly and handed the ledger to him.
Jiang Hao's eyes sunk, he took the account book and opened it to look at it. Every page in it had the same tea purchasing company on it, and the business payee without exception had Xiao Yao's name written on it.
Seeing Jiang Hao's disbelieving eyes and nervous and nervous mood, the mysterious man put his arm on his shoulder and said: "We are also the victims of his absconding with money. Not only you, 40% of the merchants in this street have been deceived by him.
"
"You haven't looked for him?"
"Hey, this grandson can't be found even if he digs three feet into the ground."
Jiang Hao felt that the tone that had been in his heart these days was instantly released. It turned out that this was not a simple liar, but a professional master.
If such a big tea wholesale store and so many people couldn't find him, then it would be like finding a needle in a haystack by themselves.
This means that the hopes of everyone in Xiaobei Village and the hopes of the tea-picking team have collapsed.
Jiang Hao took a deep breath, closed the ledger, and gave it back to the mysterious man.
Jiang Hao, who couldn't calm down for a long time, could only suppress the worry in his heart, nodded slightly to them and said: "Excuse me."
After saying that, Jiang Hao turned around and wanted to leave, but heard the man with gold-rimmed glasses behind him say: "If you find him first, I hope you will let me know."
Jiang Hao turned around and nodded in greeting, then opened the wooden door and walked out.
The mysterious man turned around and asked the man with gold-rimmed glasses: "We can't find him, so it's no use talking to him."
"There's something about him that we don't have."
"What?"
