“Okay, I got it. Director Xu, don’t worry. We’ll definitely be able to reach this place before dawn. You stay behind and have a good rest.”
After saying that, he stepped on the accelerator and the car disappeared into the night.
Xiao Zhou was a professional driver himself, so he knew how dangerous this matter was along the way. Moreover, he absolutely could not delay it, because every minute of delay would probably cause some new changes.
He didn’t stop on the way. He only went to the service area twice on the way. He didn’t stop at all. He arrived at a remote small county at six in the morning.
Then, he followed the address on the information and found this place. It should be an alley. According to the number of the alley, he came to the front of a courtyard.
Xiao Zhou nodded gently when he saw that. He walked forward and knocked on the door gently.
After waiting for a while, the door opened. He saw an old man with white hair. He bent over and looked up at him.
“You, who are you? Who are you looking for?”
“Oh, sir, it’s like this. We’re here to look for a university classmate.”
“University classmate? Which university classmate?”
“Oh, it’s Xiao Bo. Xiao Bo, doesn’t his family live here?”
“Xiao Bo, y-you guys are Xiao Bo’s classmates?”
Xiao Zhou suddenly felt as if he had taken a pill of reassurance when he heard that. If that was the case, it seemed that his thoughts were right and he had found his direction.
“Yeah, we happened to pass by this place on our business trip. Then, we remembered Xiao Bo. He seemed to have said that his home was in a small county, so we found this place from the address book. I wonder if Xiao Bo is still at home?”
“Oh, 1 see. Come on in. Xiao Bo isn’t home right now.”
“Oh, he’s not at home? Grandpa, where did he go? When is he coming back? Why don’t we wait for him outside? Or is there a phone number?”
“Oh, there’s a phone, but you don’t need to make a call. Go straight from this place and there’s a T-junction. At the T-junction, go to the right and you’ll slowly see a sign that says Xiaobo Communication. That’s his shop.”
“You mean, he’s in that shop, right?”
“Yes, he and his wife are both in the shop.”
“Okay, 1 understand. I’ve troubled you, Grandpa.”
After saying that, he greeted them and quickly left.
After returning to the car, he looked up at Xu Wenping.
“How is it? Have you figured it out? Is this his home?”
“Yes, I’ve already found out. 1 suspect that the person inside is his father. He said that if you turn right at his intersection, you’ll see a sign. It says Xiaobo Communication.”
“Wow, he’s actually doing some business at home now. Alright, then I’ll officially meet this person today.”
“Director Xu, I advise you not to go in. Moreover, we have to think of a way to deal with this kind of person. After all, only he knows the crime he committed back then. If we suddenly raise this now, I’m afraid that we will alert the enemy.”
“Are you saying that we should wait for the time being?”
“Yes, we’ll stay around and look around. Don’t forget that Li Xiaobo doesn’t know us at all, so we’ll just test the waters first. Even if we go to the shop and pretend to sell something, we’ll see what’s going on. We’ll wait for an opinion before making a decision.”
To be honest, Xu Wenping was indeed a little flustered at this time. He really wanted to find this person, grab him, and question him about what happened 10 years ago.
Fortunately, Xiao Zhou was still rather clear-headed because he knew that if he were to ask around, they would definitely end up with nothing.
After all, the situation had already changed greatly. Moreover, no one had any evidence now. If they mentioned it now, it would not be of any decisive effect.
Xu Wenping recalled carefully and felt that he was indeed a little flustered.
Then, they drove to the door of Xiaobo Communication.
They found a middle-aged man sitting in the shop. He seemed to be discussing something with a customer.
The shop didn’t look very big, about 20 square meters. There were two sets of counters inside, and the counters were filled with communication equipment, including walkie-talkies and communication phones.
The two of them looked at each other and finally walked into the shop.
“Hey, what do you want?”
They could clearly see that this person was the Li Xiaobo they were looking for. He was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and his hair had indeed turned a lot whiter.
However, looking at him, he seemed to have experienced some storms and things.
At this moment, Xu Wenping was really excited. He really wanted to do this right away, but he knew that if they were to just clash with him now, all his previous efforts would be wasted.
“Oh, boss, we want to buy a pair of walkie-talkies. Moreover, the kind of communication effect needs to be better.”
“Oh, the kind with good communication effect. I have it here. By the way, what are you guys doing? Do you usually use it when you go out for an outing, or do you use it for something else?”
“Oh, it’s just that we usually drive a few cars on the highway together and then go out to play. So, we want some communication that isn’t restricted and isn’t blocked.”
“Alright, that’s not a problem. I can satisfy you here. Come, I’ll get you a few models. You can choose from them first. There are some that are more valuable. Of course, there are also some that are cheaper. This depends on what you need.”
He was very enthusiastic. After all, they were customers. He was here to do business, so it was impossible for him to reject them.
While Xiao Zhou was looking at the machines, he looked around and realized that there was a staircase above the building. It seemed like there was another two-story building..
