Little Wolf Cub of the Ginger Demon King

However, no matter how Jiang Lai checked the business hall, it showed "there is no such account".

Jiang Lai was dejected and lost direction for a moment.

"Could it be that sister?" Bei Xiaowu exclaimed as if he suddenly remembered something.

"what?"

"It's the elder sister who accompanied me to the bank to withdraw my father's deposit last time, Li Mei, a community policeman. She said that she would take the death certificate to cancel the ID card, household registration, and bank account. Will my father's mobile phone number be canceled? Disappeared together."

"Don't you need family members to do this?" Although Jiang Lai had never experienced it before, he was at least a few years older than Bei Xiaowu.

"I was groggy in the past few days. Sister Xiaomei accompanied me to do it, and I didn't pay much attention to some business that can be done online." Bei Xiaowu was sweating anxiously, grabbing Jiang Lai's hand Just move forward.

"Where are you going?" Jiang Lai asked.

Seeing a taxi far away, Bei Xiaowu pulled Jiang Lai and waved his arms while running, "Look for Li Mei, I know her home."

"Row."

While talking, a taxi slowly stopped beside them, and Bei Xiaowu pulled Jiang Lai into the back seat together.

"Where are you going?" the driver asked.

"Gujian Street." Bei Xiaowu panted.

The car started slowly, and walked along the way without rush or slowness. The driver glanced at the two people behind him from the rearview mirror several times.

The driver watched it many times before Jiang Lai realized that his hand was no longer simply being pulled by the wrist by Bei Xiaowu, but the fingers of the two were tightly clasped together.

Jiang Lai knew about the child, but because he was in a panic, he instinctively wanted to grab an adult to lean on.But this feeling is very strange to him.It was as if a small electric current was flowing along the clenched palm to other parts of the body.

It's numb, crispy and itchy, it's not very comfortable, but I just don't want to let go.

Bei Xiaowu held Jiang Lai tightly, but stared out the window dully, the traffic was busy and bustling, and the thought that some people would never be able to see such a scene made his heart ache.

After a while, the car arrived at the intersection of Gujian Street, Jiang Lai slowly let go of Bei Xiaowu's hand, paid the money and pushed the door to get off.

Bei Xiaowu followed, seemingly indifferent to the accidental hand-holding, and hurriedly urged Jiang Lai, "Over there, her home is over there."

At noon, Li Mei was rushing home to make dinner to serve her father who was sick in bed, when she saw Bei Xiaowu and Jiang Lai passing by the door, she hurriedly chased them out and yelled.

"Ah, here it is!" Bei Xiaowu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Mei, and smiled, "Sister, let's ask you something."

"What's the matter? Come in and talk about it," Li Mei enthusiastically invited Bei Xiaowu and Jiang Lai in, and then asked, "Have you eaten? I just cooked a meal, so I added two more pairs of chopsticks to eat together."

Jiang Lai was embarrassed and hurriedly refused, but Bei Xiaowu nodded in agreement.

Some time ago, Li Mei helped Bei Xiaowu with many things, so he was naturally close to this sister.What's more, Li Mei's father, like Mrs. You, suffered a stroke and was paralyzed, so having a meal together at noon would not be of any help.

After Li Mei set up the dishes in the kitchen, she went to her father's bedroom, and Bei Xiaowu followed.The furniture in the room is simple but bright and tidy, and there is a faint lemon scent, not at all like the paralyzed patients living there all year round.

"Dad to eat." Li Mei said, tugging at her sleeves, and hugging old man Li who was leaning on the bed listening to the cash register.

Standing at the door, Jiang Lai was shocked to see this scene.He felt that such a big old man weighed at least one hundred forty to fifty catties, and he was quite surprised that a girl like Li Mei bent down to hug her.

Li Mei put his father into the wheelchair by the window, looked at Jiang Lai and Bei Xiaowu as if their jaws had dropped in surprise, and laughed haha, "Isn't it incredible? My father was sick in my third year of high school, and this hug is six Years ago, I have already practiced it."

Bei Xiaowu nodded with a smile, and hurriedly pushed the wheelchair to the kitchen.

Only then did he discover that the threshold of Li Mei's house was gently sloped with cement, and the cement had been polished to a bright finish. It seemed that they had been going in and out like this all the time.

"You don't have to push, my dad can do it by himself." Li Mei gently took Bei Xiaowu's hand away and smiled at him.

Uncle Li showed a slight smile on his muscular cheeks. He moved his arm a little bit with difficulty, and put his hand on the button of the electric wheelchair.

The wheelchair started humming in front of Bei Xiaowu, went up and down a small slope, passed the yard and went to the kitchen.

Li Mei showed a proud smile for her father, and patted Bei Xiaowu on the shoulder, "Let's go to eat."

Four people gathered around a small table, and Jiang Lai kept observing Uncle Li's actions.

Not only can he drive the wheelchair by himself, but he can also eat by himself with a special spoon. Although he will eat messily and saliva all over his body, his serious and focused appearance will suddenly make people awe-inspiring.

"Uncle Li is recovering very well." Jiang Lai couldn't help but admire.

Li Mei nodded with a smile, "When I first came back from the hospital, I couldn't move a single finger. The doctor said that it will be like that in the future. But my mother didn't give up. She massaged, took physical therapy, and accompanied him to re-study every day. After a long time, she was able to live for half a day." Take care of yourself. If both of us are busy, he won't be able to starve himself now. It's good."

Jiang Lai was very moved when he heard this, "Auntie, did you study nursing?"

"No, my mother works in sanitation. She used to distribute tools in the office. Later, my father had an accident. In order to spend more time with him, she went directly to the front line to sweep the road." Li Mei laughed again. , is the kind of smile that is used to suffering but is still neither humble nor overbearing.Looking at it makes people feel warm and cozy.

"Oh, why are you here looking for me? Tell me, I have to go back to work later." Li Mei put some food into Bei Xiaowu and Jiang Lai's bowls.

Bei Xiaowu put down his chopsticks, looked at Jiang Lai, and asked, "Sister, I want to ask, did we cancel my dad's phone number when we went to do business last time?"

Li Mei was stunned when he heard that, and then he understood why Bei Xiaowu asked, "The public security system and the telecommunications company are connected to the Internet, and they will update the data every once in a while. In order to prevent some people from using the deceased's number to telecommunication fraud, Therefore, the telecommunications company will regularly clean up the recalled numbers. Your father's number should be recalled."

"But I think..."

Before Bei Xiaowu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Lai, "Then we won't be able to find out the previous usage of this number, right?"

Li Mei nodded, "In theory, that's the case. Ordinary people can't check it. After all, the number doesn't exist anymore."

Bei Xiaowu exhaled, his shoulders collapsed, his only hope was ruined, and he was very irritable.

Jiang Lai patted him reassuringly, and put the chopsticks in his hands, "Eat."

"What? You still want to keep that number?" Li Mei asked.

Bei Xiaowu hesitated to speak several times, and finally shook his head helplessly.

"Cheer up, kid, stop thinking about what's there and what's not." Li Mei patted Bei Xiaowu on the shoulder, got up and went out.

After a while, she came back and swiped her mobile phone in front of Bei Xiaowu, "Add me on WeChat, and I will pass this on to you. This is the contact information of an old Chinese doctor. He is very good at acupuncture and massage. You can □, when it’s over, treat your grandma too, it’s quite effective.”

"Okay." Bei Xiaowu took out his phone and added Li Mei, and Jiang Lai also added her by the way, thinking that he could ask more about taking care of the elderly in the future.

The meal made the two of them swell, but the matter nestled in their hearts has not been resolved.

In the afternoon, Jiang Lai and Bei Xiaowu were walking back in the intricate alleys of Gujian Street, both with their heads drooping and a little depressed.

"Are you going to City Q tomorrow?" Bei Xiaowu asked.

Jiang Lai nodded, "Well, come with me, take you to relax."

Bei Xiaowu shook his head and smiled forcedly, "I still don't have the face to relax, my grades at the end of the semester are so bad that I won't be able to pass any high school."

"Take your time, one grade is nothing." Under the sun, Jiang Lai stretched out his arms, and compared three fingers to Bei Xiaowu's head. The child in the shadow seemed to be wearing a crown.

Bei Xiaowu was amused by Jiang Lai, and directly slapped Jiang Lai on the head, "The crown I gave you is a large one."

"Hahaha..." The two started to play.Bei Xiaowu's little canine teeth were exposed, and he smiled broadly. Jiang Lai hadn't seen a child like this for a long time.

"I'll bring you something delicious when I come back." Jiang Lai said after laughing for a while.

Bei Xiaowu calmed down and nodded.

"The old Chinese doctor Li Mei mentioned, I think I can give my grandma a try. Xiaohong also always massages, but she is not a professional after all." Jiang Lai said again.

Bei Xiaowu continued to nod, "Well, Uncle Li is quite powerful, it would be great if grandma can recover to that level."

"Take your time, you will." Jiang Lai smiled.

Neither of them talked about the phone anymore, nor did they mention the inexplicably lost call records on the phone.Perhaps it was Li Mei's words that comforted Bei Xiaowu, but it was more likely that seeing the half-independent old man Li touched the child and let him know that he should look forward, Jiang Lai thought.

The alleys that I am usually familiar with are endless today. I know that turning left at the previous intersection is the shortest way home, but I just have to take a detour.

The dry creeper on the gray wall, the broken bricks piled up at the door who don't know when they will be used, Jiang Lai and Bei Xiaowu walked, really hoping that this bad time can pass quickly, and hope that the people in front of them This little paragraph never ends.

That night, Bei Xiaowu got into the room to study after eating.Across the two windows, Jiang Lai made sure that the child would not suddenly come looking for him, so he touched his mobile phone and prepared to call Toad.

It's been a while, and he doesn't know if Ha|Toad went to Bei Tiangui's office to find things as agreed.

Just as he was thinking, the phone in his hand rang, and it was Toad who called.

"Hey, Jiang Lai!" Toad gasped in shock, "Oh, I'm so frustrated."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Lai asked nervously.

"The person in charge of the factory went on a business trip today. We managed to be lazy, so I went up to the second floor and pretended to clean up. I was going to sneak into Bei Tiangui's office. Guess what happened?"

"What's the matter?" Jiang Lai asked.

"There's someone in the room! Damn, I was scared to death. Fortunately, I didn't directly take out the key to open the door, otherwise I would just bump into one."

Only then did Jiang Lai understand the reason for Ha|Toad's panicked tone, and he asked while soothing the other party's emotions, "Who is in the room, have you seen clearly?"

"How do I know that, I just slipped away. But I can be sure that the man is opening the lock on the drawer."

"Unlocked? Opened it? Did you take away the contents?" Jiang Lai felt nervous.

"No," said Toad with a smile, "that guy is sneaky, and he doesn't know how to twist the door to pick the lock, and he is afraid of making signs of picking the lock. He is quite stupid."

"Oh." Jiang Lai felt relieved, at least it meant that the things in the drawer were still there and hadn't been taken away.

……

It was dark, and the orange bedside lamp in the room was always on.Jiang Lai turned the single bed creakingly.The next day was the day he went to Q city.

He should have gone to bed early, but when he thought of the inexplicably disappearing communication records in Beitiangui's phone, and Toad saying that someone was quietly stealing things from the drawer, Jiang Lai's mind was filled with horror and spookiness from suspense dramas .

He never felt that his life was smooth, but he never expected to encounter such a bizarre thing.

Did Bei Tiangui delete it himself?It doesn't make sense, he didn't delete hundreds of communication records, how could he just delete his own.

And why just delete that communication record?Could it be that the dialogue between Bei Tiangui and himself had any special meaning?

There is also the originally inconspicuous drawer. If Song Youhe didn't mention it, it would not have attracted any attention at all, but someone was secretly thinking about the things inside...

It seemed that there were too many puzzles to be solved, but when Jiang Lai thought of laughing with Bei Xiaowu in the alley, he didn't dare to think about everything.

After all, Bei Xiaowu is a child, and when everything is a foregone conclusion, spending energy and time on conspiracy is meaningless in Jiang Lai's view.

But Jiang Lai didn't want the makers of the conspiracy to hide in the dark and laugh, so he felt that the investigation must continue, and now it was not as simple as pleading charges for Bei Tiangui, he was eager to know the truth, but he could no longer bring the child with him played.
