Li Mingxi pedaled his bicycle hard and headed towards the county armed forces department.
As soon as she stopped the car at the gate of the county armed forces department, she felt the tense atmosphere.
"Little girl, who are you looking for? You are not allowed to come in here!"
As soon as Li Mingxi parked the car, the guard standing at the door stopped her.
Li Mingxi immediately put on a sweet smile and told the guard why she was there.
When the man heard Li Mingxi's words, he nodded, and then slowly spoke.
"Okay, go in, but don't walk around!"
Looking Li Mingxi up and down, he asked uncertainly, "Do you know which office the minister is?"
Li Mingxi shook his head awkwardly, "I don't know!"
She doesn't come to the Armed Forces Department often, so how does she know where her second uncle's office is?
"How about this, I'll have someone take you to see the minister!"
In this way, Li Mingxi followed a young soldier to his second uncle's office.
As soon as she entered the office, she saw her second uncle sitting at the desk with a stern face, reading documents.
He raised his head only when he heard that his family members were looking for him.
When he saw it was Li Mingxi, his expression looked a little better.
"Xiao Xi, it's you. What's the matter with you coming here to see me?"
"Is there something your grandma wants to tell me?"
Li Mingxi shook his head awkwardly, "No, I need to talk to you about something!"
After a pause, she continued, "It's Brother Simao. I made an appointment with him, but I couldn't find him. So I wanted to ask you, do you know where he is?"
Seeing that Li Mingxi was looking for his son, Li Aidang's originally gentle expression immediately became serious.
Then he said angrily, "Why are you looking for him? He's just a brat!"
Seeing his second uncle like this, Li Mingxi felt that his second uncle had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem, so he quickly spoke to persuade him.
"Uncle Er, look, everything is fine, why are you so angry? Besides, if you are really angry with Brother Simao, you can talk about it after he comes back. The important thing now is to find him first!"
"Otherwise, if something really happens to Brother Simao, what should we do?"
Li Aidang looked at Li Mingxi's expression and knew that she was really worried, so he sighed in his heart.
Thinking about the brat he had locked up, he felt so angry that his teeth were itching.
The brat just can't compare to the little girl. Look, my niece is so well-behaved, but my own boy is no good. What else can he do except causing trouble for himself all day long!
Speaking of this time, if his son had not been arrested, he really would not have known that his youngest son was so capable and had actually run to the black market!
Li Mingxi secretly observed his second uncle's expression and saw that he looked annoyed.
A little worried, he asked quickly.
"Second uncle, what's wrong?"
Li Aidang said nonchalantly, "Oh, it's okay, you don't have to look for that brat anymore, he made a mistake and I've locked him up!"
Hearing his second uncle say this, Li Mingxi opened his mouth in shock.
"What? Locked up?"
Li Aidang was not at all shocked by Li Mingxi's reaction. When he knew that Simao had done this, he was also horrified!
Seeing Li Mingxi's surprised expression, he said directly, "Yes, so you don't need to look for him!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mingxi's heart skipped a beat. This wouldn't do. If Brother Simao was kept in prison, who would go back with Old Man Wang?
So, Li Mingxi asked directly, "When will he come out, Second Uncle?"
"Then I don't know. Let's see how he behaves. This brat, if I don't pay attention to him for a while, he won't know his place anymore. I must teach him a lesson this time!"
Looking at his second uncle's serious expression, Li Mingxi subconsciously felt that he was doomed.
Li Aidang looked at his niece's slightly disappointed face and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Xiaoxi?"
Li Mingxi shook his head. "Nothing, Second Uncle. I just want to ask when Brother Simao will be able to come out. After all, I have an agreement with him before. If he doesn't come out, then it will be too late!"
Li Aidang nodded, pondered for a moment, and then spoke slowly.
"When is your appointment? Let me see. Then, let them out!"
Li Mingxi couldn't believe his ears. Was Second Uncle so easy to talk to? He was going to release Simao Brother the moment he said that?
After coming to his senses, Li Mingxi quickly expressed his gratitude to his second uncle.
"Thank you so much, Uncle!"
Looking at the thick stack of documents in his second uncle's hand, Li Mingxi touched his nose and spoke embarrassedly.
"Uncle, that's all I have to say. If there's nothing else, I'll leave!"
"Okay, then go ahead. I won't see you off!"
After saying goodbye to her second uncle, Li Mingxi went to the scrap yard again. She had to talk to Old Man Wang first to prevent the old man from leaving alone.
But she had just parked her bicycle at the scrap yard when she saw Leng Zhao talking to Old Man Wang.
"Hey, old man, I'm just asking you if you have anything valuable. Why are you being so rude to me?"
"I just don't understand. These are discarded items. Why can't I keep them?"
"Rather than letting these things slowly turn into a pile of junk, I might as well take them away!"
"I told you, I don't know. If you really want it, go find it yourself!"
As he said this, Old Man Wang turned around and left.
As a result, he had just taken a few steps when he was blocked by Leng Zhao.
"Don't go. I just want to ask you something."
Li Mingxi couldn't help looking at Leng Zhao's fierce expression.
He rushed forward, opened his arms, stood in front of Old Man Wang, and spoke to Leng Zhao.
"What are you doing? How dare a young man like you bully an elderly person?"
Leng Zhao was startled at first when he saw Li Mingxi suddenly appear in front of him.
Then, he stiffened his neck and began to explain himself.
"No way! When did I ever bully anyone? Besides, I just asked him if he had anything good. And then, not only did he not tell me, he even gave me a cold shoulder. What's going on? He's looking down on me!"
In the end, his expression became sad. If you didn't know him, you would think that it was really Old Man Wang who bullied him.
Li Mingxi looked at him and chuckled, "Really? Why don't people want to talk to you? Isn't it all because of you? What's the matter? You're not that old, but your memory is not good?"
"What's the matter? Have you forgotten what you were like before?"
Leng Zhao's old face turned red because of Li Mingxi, and then he stiffened his neck and looked at Li Mingxi angrily.
"You said that was me before. I didn't do anything to him just now, but he treated me so coldly. Why?"
