Rebirth 90: The Long Road to Finding a Son

Chapter 28: Intercepting Qian Jindou

Although Qian Jindou has been cracked down on before, he is currently a free agent.

Information showed that he owned four properties in Mafang City, two of which had water and electricity meters that had not been running for a long time, indicating that he probably did not live there.

The water and electricity usage in the other two sets are relatively normal. I don’t know whether he lives there himself or rents them out.

Yuan Jie had no other choice but to go and block the way.

Her family was worried about Yuan Jie traveling alone, so they asked her second sister Yuan Fang's youngest son Zhang Lin to accompany her.

Speaking of Zhang Lin, he was only three years old when Yuan Jie rolled down the stairs and became unconscious, three years younger than Sun Xiaohao.

Currently, Zhang Lin is studying for a master's degree at Peking University. During the summer vacation, he is traveling around. In his own words: We cannot waste the beautiful time of youth.

In the family group, when the elders mentioned that they were afraid that Yuan Jie might get into trouble if she went to look for someone on her own, Zhang Lin volunteered to take on the task.

"Dear family members, please rest assured that the task will be completed successfully!" Zhang Lin promised.

Yuan Fang and other elders repeatedly told Zhang Lin: "Don't panic when something happens, discuss it with your aunt, listen to your aunt's arrangements, and don't be reckless!"

Zhang Lin readily agreed. Compared to his naive brother Zhang Sen, who was always easy to trust others, Zhang Lin seemed more eccentric and more thoughtful. Although he was the youngest child in the entire Yuan family, he was very steady and mature in doing things, so the elders were more relieved to have him accompany them.

The matter was settled. Zhang Lin quickly booked the fastest flight and flew from Yu City to Mafang City. Ten hours later, Zhang Lin appeared at the hotel where Yuan Jie was staying.

When Zhang Lin saw Yuan Jie, he asked, "Aunt, what's the situation now?"

Yuan Jie said: "I can't get through to the other party's family members' phone numbers that I found. Now the man called Qian Jindou has two houses with normal water and electricity. I want to start with these two houses. I can only use the stupid method of squatting. The police station here only gave some information and didn't care about finding people!"

Zhang Lin looked at his watch and said, "It's eight o'clock in the evening. Normally, most people would be at home at this time. How about we go over there and try our luck?"

Yuan Jie was a little worried that Zhang Lin might be exhausted from all the traveling, so she asked, "You just got off the plane, do you want to rest for a while? Go eat something first, and we'll talk later! There's no rush, only when you're full will you have the strength to deal with those people!"

Zhang Lin heard his aunt's concern for him and jumped twice on the spot: "It's okay, aunt, you see I'm young and strong, it's no problem for me to go out and run a marathon now!"

This sentence made Yuan Jie finally relax her brows and smile: "This child, his little mouth is chattering, I don't know who he takes after! Let's go, go eat something with aunt first, it won't take much time."

"Okay, auntie, I've been missing my uncle's specialty dishes lately. I'll have to show him off again later!"

"Okay, okay, okay, order whatever you want. Your uncle would love for you to come and support him every day!"

As they were talking, the two men arrived at the hotel buffet restaurant, ate something quick, and then set off for one of Qian Jindou's residences.

Unfortunately, the lights in the house were off and there was no sound inside. The family members must have not returned yet or have moved somewhere else.

Yuan Jie and Zhang Lin then took a taxi and rushed to their next residence.

Before ringing the doorbell, Zhang Lin set his mobile phone to recording mode, which is called "being prepared for any eventuality."

The person who opened the door was a young girl, and a male voice was heard from behind her. Judging from the voice, the man seemed to be young.

The girl looked at the two strangers in front of her and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Yuan Jie said politely: "Excuse me, is this Qian Jindou's family?"

The girl shook her head in confusion: "No, you are in the wrong place, right?"

The girl was about to close the door, but Zhang Lin quickly held the door with his hand and prevented it from closing.

This action frightened the girl: "What do you want to do? Husband~husband~"

The girl kept calling for help.

Yuan Jie quickly explained: "Girl, don't get me wrong, we have no ill intentions, we are looking for a man named Qian Jindou, and the owner of the house we found is Qian Jindou!"

The young man in the room heard the woman's scream and rushed out. When he heard Yuan Jie's explanation, he felt relieved.

"Are you looking for Qian Jindou? He is our landlord, but we haven't seen him for a while and now his son collects the rent." The man responded.

Zhang Lin asked: "When do they collect the rent? Is it in cash or by bank transfer? Can you give us their contact information? We have something very important to ask Qian Jindou!"

The young couple refused, "That's definitely not possible. The landlord specifically emphasized that their contact information must not be disclosed, otherwise he would not rent the house to us."

Zhang Lin then asked: "How long have you lived here? How much is the rent?"

The young man replied, "We started renting this house last year, for 1,200 yuan a month. Before, the landlord, Qian Jindou, came to collect the rent. Two months ago, he said that in the future, we should transfer the rent to his son on WeChat. I haven't seen him since then."

Zhang Lin continued to discuss with the young man: "How about this? Give us Qian Jindou and his son's phone number, WeChat ID and other contact information, and we will give you one month's rent. We will definitely not say that their information was obtained from you."

The man hesitated: "Well~"

The young woman poked the man with her arm from behind, then said to Zhang Lin and Yuan Jie, "Three thousand yuan, and we'll give you the information. If you think it's okay, then it's settled. If not, then forget it!"

Hearing the other party's relenting, Zhang Lin wanted to use his eloquence to bargain, but Yuan Jie didn't give him the chance and immediately agreed: "No problem, deal!"

Zhang Lin: Who can understand the hard life of a poor student? o(╯□╰)o

Afterwards, Yuan Jie happily transferred the money to the other party and successfully obtained the contact information of Qian Jindou and his son. This Qian Jindou's phone number was different from the one obtained from the police station before.

This time, Yuan Jie learned her lesson and no longer used her own mobile phone to dial the number in her hand, but asked Zhang Lin to dial the number.

The call was connected, and an impatient male voice came from the receiver: "Who is it?"

At the same time, there was a childish voice: "Dad, don't answer the phone, hurry up and order me a takeaway pizza, I'm starving."

When Yuan Jie and Zhang Lin heard this childish voice, they had a bad feeling in their hearts.

According to the information, Qian Jindou’s three children are already adults. How could such a young child suddenly appear and call him dad?

But I have to ask and find out clearly whether the person on the other end of the phone is Qian Jindou himself.
