Li Mingxi was still waiting for someone to speak, but he didn't say anything. His eyes were rolling around, as if he was thinking.

Li Mingxi really didn't have the time to waste with him, so she endured it again and again, and was about to ask.

Zhu Qiang spoke, but he sighed first and then spoke.

"Oh, forget it. We've been searching here for a few days, but we haven't seen anyone yet. I don't know if that person mentioned the wrong place. Otherwise, how could we not find anyone in such a big place?"

Hearing him say this, Li Mingxi was secretly happy. She knew it was like this. As long as the information was hidden, no one would be able to find Old Man Wang.

However, she certainly couldn't say that in front of Huo Jingchen and the others.

"It's okay, don't worry, just ask around and you'll find the person eventually!"

Zhu Qiang nodded. "That's right. However, I think we should find out whether this news is true or not. Otherwise, we won't be able to find the place like this any longer."

Li Mingxi agreed and said, "That's right. We must first ensure the accuracy of the information before we can continue looking for someone!"

"Ah, it's getting late. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. I have things to do at home!"

As she spoke, she had already gotten on the bike.

Originally, Li Mingxi planned to go home directly, but after hearing what Zhu Qiang said, she suddenly remembered.

It has been several days since I went to see my second uncle that day. It’s time for Old Man Wang and the others to come back!

If it were someone else, she wouldn't have that much confidence, but now it was her second uncle, and the group of people under him were all from the army.

There is no reason why you can’t succeed!

Thinking of this, Li Mingxi rode his bicycle like the wind towards the scrap station.

Unexpectedly, after arriving at the scrap yard and searching around, Li Mingxi still couldn't find any trace of Old Man Wang.

Apart from Li Mingxi, there was only one person left in the entire scrap yard who was helping the old man on duty!

Standing in front of the room where the old man slept, Li Mingxi fell into deep thought. So many days had passed, and he still hadn't come back. Could something have happened?

Subconsciously, this idea popped up in Li Mingxi's mind.

Otherwise, why is there still no one here after such a long time?

Or was it because the noise was too loud and alarmed the local villagers?

Thinking about the scene where Simao and his group were besieged by villagers, Li Mingxi felt his scalp tingling!

If we really meet the villagers, it will be troublesome!

Although illegally imprisoning people is against the law, the law does not punish the masses. If the entire village is in collusion and wants to keep Old Man Wang and his friends, then no matter who goes, it will be useless unless Old Man Wang's relatives give the order.

If this really happened, Li Mingxi really didn't know who to turn to!

At the same time, looking at the scrap yard not far away, Old Man Wang felt that his uneasy heart had finally settled down.

Although the conditions at the scrap yard are not very good, he has long been accustomed to this kind of life.

Look, after being away for so many days, he is really a little uncomfortable!

"Okay, we're here now. You guys should hurry back home. No need to send me off. I've really troubled you these past few days!"

Immediately, Old Man Wang waved his hand, trying to drive Brother Simao and Leng Zhao away.

Thinking back on these past few days, he felt really bad because he had caused Simao and the other person to be locked up in there with him!

Simao was really worried because he hadn't seen Old Man Wang walk into the scrap yard with his own eyes. Moreover, the old man hadn't looked very happy these days since he was locked up.

What if the old man loses his mind and does something wrong? Don’t blame Li Minglu then.

Even he himself would feel bad.

So, after hearing what the old man said, he refused it outright.

"No, we haven't reached the destination yet. There's no rush to leave. It's not too late to leave after we get you in!"

Leng Zhao also agreed with Simao's words, "That's right, old man, we've come this far, so it won't hurt to walk a little further!"

In the end, he couldn't refuse the two of them any more, so Old Man Wang had to let Simao and the other man continue to accompany him.

Unexpectedly, just as the three of them turned the corner and were about to reach the scrap yard, they ran into Li Mingxi pushing a cart out.

Seeing Li Mingxi here, Simao was so happy that he went up to her and greeted her with a smile.

"Hey, Xiaoxi, why are you here? What's the matter? Did you think it's time for us to come back and come here to see Grandpa?"

The moment he saw those people, Li Mingxi was shocked, fearing that he had seen it wrong!

After blinking a few times, I saw that the person was still standing there, and then I believed that it was the person who had returned.

Seeing that the people opposite looked normal, it seemed that nothing had happened. In this way, the problem should be solved!

Thinking of this, Li Mingxi walked forward and spoke with a smile.

"That's right. I haven't heard from you guys in the past few days, and I was so worried that I came over to see how everything is going. Is everything okay?"

Simao's eyes flickered for a moment, then he waved his hands nonchalantly, "It's okay, what could possibly happen? I was just locked up for a few days, it's nothing serious. We live in a society ruled by law, so they wouldn't dare to do anything to us. Look, we're back safe and sound!"

As he spoke, he opened his hands and turned around twice to show that he was indeed very good.

In fact, they had already agreed long before that they should not let their family members worry about this matter.

So, on the way back, they agreed on a unified statement, and now Simao's answer was based on what they had agreed upon.

Ordinary people might really be fooled by Simao's appearance, but who is Li Mingxi!

She was a woman who had experienced many ups and downs. Looking at the tired looks on their faces, she knew that the situation was definitely not that simple.

But since Brother Simao didn't want to say it, she simply didn't ask, so as to avoid embarrassing everyone!

She patted her chest and said with relief, "That's good, that's good. You don't know how scared I was these past few days when there was no news from you guys!"

Simao patted Li Mingxi's arm to comfort him, "It's okay, it's okay, we're back!"

Old Man Wang echoed, "Yes, yes, let's go inside and have some tea first!"

Li Mingxi had something else to do, so naturally he didn't want to go in, but they were so enthusiastic that Li Mingxi couldn't refuse, so he could only follow them into the house obediently.

After chatting with a few people in the room for a while, Li Mingxi was about to get up and say goodbye.

"Brother Simao, I really have something to do. My grandmother had already arranged a task for me before I came here. Just now, I saw that Second Uncle was not here, so I turned here."

"Look, it's getting late now. I guess Second Uncle is back by now. I have to go quickly!"
