After this late-night interview at the Guangming Hall, Brother Yu and I were ordered to see off our guests.
After I came out, I received a text message. The content of the text message was very short and contained a series of phone numbers.
The Changchun Society came to Yinchuan quietly, even knowing our secret destination. This middle-aged man who called himself Wu Le came to greet us first and then to fight.
He politely invited me over and told me the secret of the little blue bottle. Then he said that he would give me three days. If I didn't give him the blue potion, Dou Sprout and Uncle Liao would be in danger as hostages.
"Why did you go in for so long? Nothing went wrong?" After leaving the Guangming Hall and walking to the road, Brother Zhiyuan flashed his car and came over.
"What happened? He looks so ugly."
I shook my head, closed the car door and said we would talk later. It was already past 3 o'clock in the middle of the night.
Brother Zhiyuan nodded and turned left to pass the traffic light.
I needed time to digest it and think about what to do next. As I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard Brother Zhiyuan who was driving the car whisper: "There is someone following behind me."
I came back from my thoughts and glanced sideways in the rearview mirror.
There was indeed a car following us a hundred meters behind us. It was black, and it looked like it was an old model Hutouben.
After passing two traffic lights and arriving at the intersection of Yingcai Lane, the Mercedes suddenly turned into Yingcai Lane. Brother Zhiyuan deliberately slowed down and stared at the rearview mirror for several minutes, but the Mercedes never came out.
Then we deliberately took a detour to make sure there were no cars following us before we dared to return to Spider Alley.
"Fortunately, nothing happened." After he came back and put on the handbrake, Brother Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
He hid the machete wrapped in white cloth under the car seat. He did not dare to take it back for fear that Chang Xiaoxia would be angry if he saw it.
After I went back, I found that Xiaoxuan had not slept all night and was sitting on a stool and dozing uncontrollably.
I patted her.
Xiaoxuan suddenly woke up and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw me in front of her.
"How's things going? Yunfeng, where's Dou Sprout, and where's Uncle Liao?"
I shook my head and said that I couldn't come back for the time being.
I thought about it and said, "Xiaoxuan, let me ask you something. Do you know of a newsstand like yours in Hong Kong that can store things?"
Xiaoxuan said she knew, why did she suddenly ask this? There are many newsstands like that.
I asked again: "What happens if someone deposits something at the newsstand and never comes to pick it up?"
"That's it...it depends on how long it's been. If it's been there for too long, it's usually treated as ownerless. Regular newsstand storage locations will report theft to the police. This is done to prevent the owner from suddenly coming back one day.
If you ask for something and handle it yourself, it will be illegal, and if you are reported afterwards, your certificate will be revoked."
I was a little nervous after hearing this, "How long will it take for it to be treated as an ownerless property? How many months? One year, or two years?"
Xiaoxuan shook her head: "I don't know about this. What's wrong with Yunfeng? Do you still have things in Hong Kong?"
I got up and walked outside the cave and took a look. I saw no one was around and the door was closed.
I whispered to Xiaoxuan: "Do you have any friends over there that you can contact? Help me go to a newsstand and ask."
"Ask the newsstand?" Xiaoxuan asked me in confusion which newsstand it was.
I thought for a while and told her: "It's less than 8 kilometers from the Central Hong Kong Pier. It's next to the alley of Xihuan Road. There are alley B&B areas nearby. The small newsstand is right next to the B&B."
"There....."
Xiaoxuan told me that she had no contact with Uncle Li after she left, and that Uncle Li had never contacted her. After her father's accident, she also lost contact with those relatives. She only remembered the mobile phone number of her class teacher.
It was the class teacher that Xiaoxuan asked his father to find someone to beat.
