In 1990, I drove a taxi in Xiangjiang

Chapter 43 A Secret

Shao Xiangbei got up early in the morning before dawn, and after washing up, he saw that it was already 6 o'clock.

Without eating breakfast, I drove from the Peninsula Hotel back to the Dragon Building on Temple Street.

Because of the fire last night, a warning sign was placed at the entrance of the elevator to stop its operation.Shao Xiangbei had no choice but to run upstairs from the safe passage on foot. The morning exercise that he was about to give up, unexpectedly, was arranged by coincidence again.

When we got upstairs, the door was ajar.

Last night, I ran away in such a hurry that I even forgot to close the door.

Fortunately, Shao Xiangbei had brought all the money and bankbook with him, and there was nothing valuable in the room except a TV that he hadn't watched for a long time.

After changing into a set of clean clothes by himself, Shao Xiangbei packed the three of him's change of clothes into a travel bag.

Finally carrying Shao Yuru's schoolbag and a travel bag of clothes in his hand, Shao Xiangbei hurried downstairs.

When he returned to the Peninsula Hotel, Shao Xiangbei looked at the electronic watch and it was almost seven o'clock.

Shao Yuru had already finished breakfast with Wu Ruoyi, and helped Shao Xiangbei bring a copy up.

"Xiao Ruoyi obediently watch TV in the hotel and don't run around, you know?"

When Shao Yuru left, he did not forget to warn Wu Ruoyi who was left alone in the hotel again.

"I know my sister."

Wu Ruoyi nodded obediently.

"Okay let's go."

"I'll come back to see her at noon."

Shao Xiangbei didn't plan to run a sports car these days because of the system tasks.

After sending Shao Yuru to school, Shao Xiangbei turned the car around to investigate the house in Wu Ruoyi's painting.

The scale of this house should be one of the luxury houses in the middle of the mountain.

Shao Xiangbei had already memorized the picture Wu Ruoyi drew in his mind.

The number 88 painted on the gate by Wu Ruoyi is even more clearly remembered.

No. 88, Mid-Levels Villa.

I just don’t know which villa area on Taiping Mountain this villa is in.

The so-called mid-level villas do not refer to a villa area but a general term for a series of villa areas on Taiping Mountain in Xiangjiang.Among them are six or seven villa areas including Dijing Garden, Huayuan Terrace, Aidu Building, and Dili Degen Pavilion.

After driving to the Peak Road, it was already around ten o'clock in the morning. Shao Xiangbei drove a taxi towards the nearest Huayuantai villa area.

The Garden Terrace villa area is one of the oldest villa areas in Mid-Levels.

The residents here are either rich or expensive, and rarely take a taxi.Therefore, Shao Xiangbei is not particularly familiar with the mid-level villa area.

The car drove back and forth twice on the road in Huayuantai villa area, and found that there are not 88 villas in total, and there is no house style similar to Wu Ruoyi's painting.

The next target is Emperor View Garden.

Shao Xiangbei also drove the vehicle to search twice, but found nothing.

Moreover, these villas are built against the mountain range of Taiping Mountain, and the area is very large. In addition, in order to ensure the privacy of life, each villa is very far apart.

The total number of villas in the two villa areas of Huayuantai and Dijingyuan is less than forty.

Did Wu Ruoyi make a mistake on purpose?
Shao Xiangbei asked himself that he had never shown any malice towards her, and there was no need for her, a little girl, to cover up like this in an ordinary painting.

It was also because of that painting that Shao Xiangbei got the progress of the system's next task, and the system could never be wrong.

keep looking!
Shao Xiangbei's car drove from the Peak Road to Meidao. Shao Xiangbei is relatively familiar with this place. Li Shengjie's villa is at No. 8 Dili Degen Pavilion in Meidao.

Businessmen like 8, 888, Fafa, so where is Villa 88?

Dili Degen Villa also did not have the number of 88. Shao Xiangbei was thinking about whether to go to the villa area on the other side of Xiangxue Road when his mobile phone rang.

"Hey?"

Shao Xiangbei didn't know who called.

"Hey, is it Xiaobei?"

Shao Xiangbei felt a little familiar with the rough voice on the other end of the phone.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Uncle Ji, blowing water!"

"Uncle Ji, are you okay with calling me?"

"I want your phone number from Uncle Zhang because I want you to eat shark fin with us."

Shao Xiangbei was afraid that the little girl Wu Ruoyi would sneak out to play when she was alone at home, so she gave the guard Zhang Bo a new business card.

Hearing Uncle Ji on the other end of the phone talk about shark fins, he couldn't help laughing. Shao Xiangbei really didn't understand why he was so happy about a meal of shark fins when his house was burned down by fire last night.

"Sorry, I have work to do and don't have time to eat shark fins."

"Little Bei, listen to me."

"This time it's our Xiaowen's boss, Qian Zinan, who treats us."

"It's because of the fact that our building was set on fire last night."

"I think you are as unwilling to leave the building as we are. We should stick together."

Uncle Ji heard that Shao Xiangbei could even refuse the temptation of eating shark fins, and immediately revealed the real purpose of his call to Shao Xiangbei.

The owners of the Ganglong Building who were forced to relocate unite?
"Uncle Ji, I really have something to do, and I don't have time to go."

"Sorry I'm going to be busy."

Shao Xiangbei didn't want to get involved in the grievances between Qian Zinan and Li Shengjie.

Now the sky and the earth are big, and the task of the system is the biggest.

Resolutely hung up the mobile phone, Shao Xiangbei turned the car around and wanted to go to the villa area on the other side of Xiangxue Road to see if there was No. 88.

"Dudududu!"

Shao Xiangbei's mobile phone rang again, and when he picked it up, it was Uncle Ji's.

"Hey?"

Shao Xiangbei frowned slightly, but he still connected the phone.

"Uncle Ji, what else do you want?"

"Xiao Bei, I'll just tell you the truth."

"If you'll come with us, I'll tell you a secret?"

"secret?"

Shao Xiangbei didn't think Uncle Ji could have anything to arouse his interest.

"A secret about your father."

Uncle Ji on the other end of the phone spoke in a rare serious tone.

"My father?"

"Uncle Ji, stop joking, my parents died when I was 15 years old."

"My sister and I only moved to Temple Street after they passed away."

Shao Xiangbei estimated that Uncle Ji might not even know his father very well.

"I know, but your house on Temple Street was bought by your father in advance."

"I also know that your parents died in an accident when you moved here."

"But have you ever seen the bodies of your parents after they died?"

Uncle Ji's tone on the phone was more serious than ever.

After listening to Uncle Ji's words, Shao Xiangbei wanted to recall, but his mind was blurred about what happened before he came to live in Dragon Building on Temple Street.

No matter how Shao Xiangbei recalled, he couldn't recall the events before the age of 15 through that vague memory.

Seeing that Shao Xiangbei was silent and did not answer, Uncle Ji on the other end of the phone spoke again.

"As long as you support us this time and join us against Universal International, I will tell you the secrets I know."

Shao Xiangbei had already stopped the car, and after a moment of silence, he finally spoke.

"Place."

“Xin Tong Le Seafood Restaurant.”

"12:30 noon."

"I'll be there on time."

Shao Xiangbei hung up the phone after finishing speaking.He didn't know whether he had affected his original memory, or whether there was already a problem with his memory before he moved into Temple Street at the age of 15.
