Chen Rufeng nodded, with a strong determination in his heart. He knew that only by finding the secret on the note could he uncover the truth of this storm. He didn't want to be the object of others' ridicule, nor did he want to continue to wait passively in this chaos.

He and Li Ming continued to study the handwriting on the note. Although their efforts still did not make any substantial progress, Chen Rufeng's heart became a little calmer. At least, he knew that he was not alone in facing these difficulties, and there were friends around him who were willing to help him.

As time went by, Chen Rufeng gradually became more determined. He decided not to be dominated by confusion and anxiety anymore, but to take the initiative to find solutions to the problems. He knew that when faced with difficulties, only calmness and rationality could help him find the real way out.

He looked at Li Ming, his eyes full of gratitude and determination. "Thank you, Li Ming. Although we don't know how to decipher this note yet, I believe that as long as we work together, we will definitely find the answer."

Li Ming gave Chen Rufeng an encouraging smile and patted him on the shoulder. "Don't worry, we can definitely solve this problem. As long as we stay calm and look for clues, we can find the truth."

Chen Rufeng looked at Li Ming's focused expression, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. He knew that his current behavior had far exceeded his original shopping plan. He was no longer just an ordinary consumer, but was involved in a complex mystery. Although he was full of uneasiness, he also knew that calmness and wisdom were the most important weapons when facing difficulties.

"Li Ming, have you ever thought about what the information on this note might imply?" Chen Rufeng tried to make his tone sound calmer, although his inner anxiety was difficult to conceal.

Li Ming frowned slightly, his eyes still fixed on the handwriting on the note. "It's not clear yet, but these handwritings look very much like a code. We need to find a suitable decoding method to understand its meaning."

Chen Rufeng nodded. He knew that deciphering the note was a top priority. But he also knew that the information on the note alone might not be enough to completely solve the mystery. He began to recall what happened in the store, trying to find any possible clues.

"Did anyone in the store mention anything special just now?" Chen Rufeng suddenly asked, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes. "Or, were there any details that were overlooked?"

Li Ming thought for a moment, and a glimmer of understanding flashed in his eyes. "The owner once mentioned that the shoes might be related to some kind of transaction or secret, but we don't know what it is yet. Maybe we can start from the source of the shoes and look for relevant information."

Chen Rufeng's mind turned quickly, and he began to realize that the source of the shoes might be the key to solving the problem. He decided to go in person to learn more about the background of the shoes and look for possible clues.

"We can go find the store owner and learn more about the origin of this pair of shoes." Chen Rufeng's tone became firm, "I need to find out what is hidden behind this pair of shoes as soon as possible."

Li Ming nodded, obviously agreeing with Chen Rufeng's decision. He stood up, sorted out his clothes, and prepared to go to the store with Chen Rufeng.

On the way to the shoe store, Chen Rufeng's heart was still filled with mixed emotions. His thoughts returned to the scene in the store before. The anxiety on the owner's face and the mysterious words of the middle-aged man confused him. He knew that he had to calm down now so that he could think more clearly.

"I really don't know what I should do now." Chen Rufeng said to himself, with a hint of helplessness and anxiety in his eyes. He knew that he had made the matter more and more complicated, and the current situation made him feel more and more helpless.

When they came to the shoe store again, Chen Rufeng's nervousness reached its peak. The door of the store was still closed, and it was obvious that the owner had not resumed normal business. He tried to peek into the store through the glass window and found that the lights were still on, but everything seemed to have become unusually quiet.

"What should we do?" Li Ming asked, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.

Chen Rufeng took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. "We can find an opportunity to see if we can find the owner. Maybe he will be willing to provide further information."

At this moment, the door of the shop suddenly opened, and the owner came out with a look of fatigue and uneasiness on his face. "Mr. Rufeng, why are you here?"

"We have some questions that need further understanding." Chen Rufeng said firmly, "We hope to get more information about the pair of shoes."

The shop owner's expression became more serious, and he looked around, as if he was hesitating whether to reveal more information. "Actually, I've been thinking about this. That pair of shoes is indeed a little special. It came from an unclear channel, and we don't fully understand its background."

"So, can that channel be traced back to a deeper source?" Chen Rufeng asked eagerly, "I need to know what secrets are behind this pair of shoes."

The shop owner's eyes flashed with hesitation, and he seemed to be struggling whether to reveal more information. "This pair of shoes is indeed involved in some unknown transactions, but I don't know the specific details. We can only be sure that this pair of shoes has been noticed by some unknown people."

Chen Rufeng felt disappointed, but he did not give up. He knew that although the information provided by the store owner was limited, it at least gave him some new clues. He decided to continue the investigation and look for more evidence.

"Thank you, shop owner." Chen Rufeng took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. "We will continue to investigate and hope to find the truth of this matter as soon as possible."

The shop owner nodded, looking a little tired. He watched Chen Rufeng and Li Ming leave, with a trace of helplessness and worry on his face.

After leaving the shoe store, Chen Rufeng and Li Ming continued walking on the street, Chen Rufeng's mind was still churning. He knew that he was no longer just dealing with a simple shopping task, but was caught in a complex mystery. He had to stay calm and find a solution to the problem.

"What should we do now?" Li Ming asked, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"We need more information." Chen Rufeng said with a hint of determination, "No matter what, we must find the truth behind this pair of shoes.
