"Have you looked for Uncle Fan?"
Xie Changle nodded and said, "I've looked for him, but there's no one at Uncle Fan's house."
Fan Zhi was also panicking, "Why isn't my dad at home at this hour?"
Fan Zhi's mother has passed away and his eldest sister is married, so usually it's just the two of them at home.
"Xiao Wan, I'll go home first." Fan Zhi wanted to go home immediately.
Xie Wan made a prompt decision and said, "Let's go together."
After leaving the hotel, they hailed a taxi and rushed to Fan's house.
The thing that several people were most worried about happened.
Fan Doujiang also left a letter for Fan Zhi.
The content is similar to Xie Sanjin's, also a suicide note.
"Why would they, two old men over 100 years old in total, decide to go and commit suicide together in the middle of the night?"
This was really confusing for the young people.
During the day, I saw that the two old men were fine.
Recently, because of Xie Wan's arrival, Xie Sanjin has been preparing to move out of Kowloon Walled City.
Xie Changle and Fan Zhi are both ready to follow Xie Wan, and the lives of the Fan and Xie families should get better and better.
What is so frustrating about these two old men?
Xie Wan noticed a newspaper on the Fan family’s dining table.
She picked it up and saw that it was the one she had used to post the missing person notice for Jiang Beiwang.
The missing person notice has been published for several days. Why is Fan Doujiang still leaving the newspaper on the table?
Xie Wan had also seen this newspaper next to Xie Sanjin's pillow.
Xie Wan carefully examined the newspaper again.
She found that there was no special news in the newspaper except the missing person notice she published.
Xie Wan's sixth sense vaguely told her that there might be some connection between the two things.
Xie Wan recalled the expression on Xie Sanjin's face when she asked him if he knew the child that day.
Thinking about it now, it seemed like he denied it a little too hastily.
Could it be that Xie Sanjin knows Jiang Beiwang?
But even if Xie Sanjin and Fan Doujiang knew the news about Jiang Beiwang, they would not seek death, right?
Xie Wan naturally became the backbone among the group.
“I don’t think it’s logical that my uncle and Uncle Fan wanted to commit suicide.
They must be about to do something very dangerous.
This incident might mean they would never come back, so they left a suicide note.
Think about it, what are the things and people they pay most attention to in their daily lives, and what are the things they miss the most? "
Both of them started to speak while counting on their fingers.
Xie Changle obviously knows his father better.
"The thing my father is most obsessed with is not letting me join the society."
Fan Zhi said: "What my father couldn't let go of the most were me and my elder sister."
Xie Wan shook his head, "It shouldn't matter. If I can't let you go, I shouldn't do anything dangerous.
You two try to think of something else.”
The two of them talked about some trivial matters in Xie Sanjin and Fan Doujiang's daily life.
Some are related to their dead mothers, some are about dirty vengeance among neighbors...
Xie Wan felt that it had nothing to do with the two old men's action of leaving a suicide note today.
"Think about it again, what does your father like to do most?"
Xie Changle said: "My father also wants to open a watch shop.
When he was not so ill, he would often hide in the basement of his house and tinker with his clocks and instruments, and would not let me see them. "
Xie Wan thought this was a bit abnormal.
Xie Sanjin hopes so much that Xie Changle will take the right path.
If Xie Changle was interested in watches, Xie Sanjin should have taught him everything he knew instead of forbidding him to watch.
"Let's go to your cousin's house and see if we can find some clues.
By the way, Fan Zhi, please find me a piece of clothing your father changed out of, or something he often used."
Although Fan Zhi didn't understand what Xie Wan was going to do, he still found a piece of clothing that Fan Doujiang had changed out of during the day and handed it to Xie Wan.
Xie Wan went to Guo's house for a banquet today. He hadn't returned to his room yet and didn't carry a big bag or anything, which was a bit inconvenient, so he asked Fan Zhi to borrow a backpack.
After stuffing the clothes into the bag, Xie Wan asked to use the bathroom.
After coming out, they took a taxi to Xie Sanjin's home in Kowloon Walled City.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and everyone felt a little nervous.
If Xie Sanjin and Fan Doujiang were going to do something dangerous, they might have already started.
Xie Wan guessed correctly. Xie Sanjin and Fan Doujiang were squatting opposite an apartment building in Kowloon at this time.
This apartment building is considered to be of a high standard in Hong Kong City, and many of its residents are mistresses and concubines of wealthy men.
They found a garbage collection tricycle from somewhere and have been riding it back and forth on this street several times.
A beggar who often picked up trash on this street came to settle accounts with them: "Where are you two from? This street is my territory. If you don't get out of here, I will call my brothers to chop you to death."
Fan Doujiang paid fifty Hong Kong dollars and sent the beggar away.
"Brother, you take a rest tonight and we'll pick it up for the night."
The beggar took the money and left cursing.
After all, Xie Sanjin was still ill and could no longer hold on.
"Lao Fan, have you really found out clearly that he comes here every night?"
Fan Doujiang nodded, "You are not the only one who can't let go of that matter, I have been keeping an eye on him all these years.
This is his mistress's residence, and he comes here every night recently."
Xie Sanjin stared at a manhole cover in front of the apartment building, his eyes showing determination as he said, "Lao Fan, you go back. I can do it alone."
