"Can you please help me find Ms. Lai Qianxiu, a passenger who lives in your place?" Xiao Long said to the person on duty at the hotel's front desk on the phone.
"Please wait a moment while we look it up. We will call you back later," the other party replied.
Xiao Long sat lazily on the chair and waited. He had never felt so satisfied. Everything was so satisfying. A person would encounter many crises in his life, and he should fight his way out and persevere in the most severe times. , you may feel that you are about to collapse, but when you get through it and look back on the past, the so-called crisis is actually nothing. In short, everything will pass, not to mention that you have always been like this, whether it is Shi Yunfeng's thing or Wu Chen's No matter what happens, if you are not careful, you will fall into an abyss of eternal destruction, but how often is it not safe and sound? How to say that sentence: "There is no way out despite the mountains and rivers, but there is still a village with dark flowers and bright flowers."
At this time, the phone rang. Xiao Long quickly picked up the phone and asked, "How is it? Have you found Lai Qianxiu?"
Xiao Long wanted to wait for Lai Qianxiu to answer the phone and comfort her, ask her how she was doing there and if she felt better, and then tell her that it might be more comfortable to find someone to massage her. He also thought about accompanying her there, but There are too many things going on in the hospital recently, and I can't get away from them. I must enjoy this rare opportunity. After returning to Nanguang, I must cheer up and take good care of myself. I really wanted to hear her voice tonight, so I made a call. ...Xiao Long has already thought about these words in his heart.
Shanye Village Hotel called back, and the waiter's voice interrupted Xiao Long's thoughts, "I'm sorry, the person you are looking for does not live with us."
"Please check again." Xiao Long requested anxiously.
"We have checked carefully. There is no name of the person you mentioned. Could it be that the name is wrong?"
By the way, she might have registered her accommodation under another name. Xiao Long immediately realized, did Lai Qianxiu really live there alone?
"I'm not sure if it was registered under this name." Xiao Long thought about the phone for a moment, "But she did live there tonight, and she just called me just now..."
"Is it a person?" the other party asked.
"Are you alone..." Xiao Long was a little vague. Did Lai Qianxiu really live with someone else? No way? The doubts in my mind just now came up again, "Maybe it's with someone else, I..." Xiao Long endured the uncomfortable mood, "She is forty-eight or nine years old, but at first glance she is only forty-five or six years old, fat. She’s fat, has thin lips, a small nose, and by the way, she has a double chin.”
"What is she wearing?"
"This..." Xiao Long was speechless. Lai Qianxiu usually wore casual clothes when going out. She had all kinds of high-end casual clothes. Maybe Xiao Long had never seen many of them, so he didn't know how to follow her. The other party said, "I'm not very clear about this."
"Does her hair have curly hair with bangs in the front?" the other party asked.
Indeed, Lai Qianxiu's forehead was a bit wide, and she deliberately covered it with bangs, "Yes, that's her. Is she there?"
"Is it that guest..." The other party was very cautious, "According to your description, we do have one here, but her name is not Lai Qianxiu."
"What?"
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while, "There is someone..."
"I am her relative. If you have anything to say, please just say it!"
"That's right, she came with a man."
This sentence is tantamount to giving Xiao Long a blow in the head.
"It is possible." Xiao Long continued to ask, "What name did they use to register it?"
"Only the gentleman's name is on our registration book, and the lady is not registered separately."
"What's that gentleman's name?" Xiao Long asked next. "Wait a moment." After saying that, there was no sound on the phone.
After a while, the voice of the waiter at Shanye Village Hotel came over the phone: "I found it. The gentleman's name is Zonghe."
"where does he live?"
"He lives in Xicheng District, Nanguang City."
"How old is he?" Xiao Long then asked.
"Forty-three years old."
"Is he still living at your place now?"
"Yes, still here now."
Xiao Long really wanted her to call that man out immediately, but he still held back. He didn't have conclusive evidence yet, but he would soon be able to catch them. Xiao Long thought like this and said: "Thank you. , I don’t have anything particularly important to do with her, so don’t tell them about the phone call I made.”
"I understand. I was afraid that you might have something important to do, so I told you the customer's information. In fact, I don't want the customer to know that I talk too much."
"Thank you." Xiao Long hung up the phone. He just made it very clear about Lai Qianxiu's appearance. The waitress should be able to tell it, even her curly hair was correct. That person should be Lai Qianxiu. Xiao Long immediately called Lai Qianxiu's home.
"Sir, it's you." It's the same maid from before.
"Is it true that my wife went to the seaside city of Antai?"
"Yes, I told you before, my wife called back."
"Which hotel in Antai?"
"Shanye Manor." The maid replied.
"Then can you help me contact her now? It's not convenient for me to contact her right now."
"Okay, I know."
"Then please call her quickly for me. Just say that after she left, I suddenly had something urgent and ask her to come back quickly!" Xiao Long said.
"Is that enough?" the maid asked.
"Yes."
"I understand, I will reply to you later."
Xiao Long hung up the phone, lit a cigarette, and tried hard to calm down. He thought, how could it be possible that Lai Qianxiu was living with a man he didn't know? It was impossible for her to betray herself. Her body, life, and everything were in her own hands. However, while Xiao Long was trying to firmly believe this, an ominous premonition came to his mind.
The maid finally called:
"Sir, I just called Shanye Village Hotel."
"How is it?" Xiao Long asked hurriedly.
"How strange!" the maid said as if to herself.
"What's so weird?"
"My wife was not there, but she called and said that she was indeed staying at the Shanye Village Hotel in Antai City. I called Shanye Village again, and the person who answered the phone said that they did not have such a guest there."
"Did you hear wrongly?" Xiao Long scolded loudly.
"She really meant the Shanye Village Hotel, there's no way she's not here!" The maid was also a little anxious.
"Then why do people say no? You must have remembered the wrong place!"
"No, that's where I heard it. What should I do?"
"Do you know Zong He?" His voice became louder.
"I don't know him," the maid replied.
"Did the lady say when to call again?"
"She didn't say anything else and she didn't call back."
"Then if she calls again next time, ask her which hotel she is staying in!"
"Okay, I understand." The maid's voice sounded confused.
Xiao Long looked at his watch: seven o'clock. It was already dark outside the window, with lights twinkling in every house, and neon lights on the busy streets in the distance. Xiao Long felt an inexplicable uneasiness shrouded in his heart. He has always been very relieved about Lai Qianxiu. They have been dating for such a long time and their relationship has always been very stable. He has never seen that she has fallen in love with another man. She is almost fifty, very fat, and looks like a middle-aged woman. She has no charm at all. In order to tie Xiao Long, she has always been submissive to him - Xiao Long has always thought so. But thinking about it carefully, maybe I didn’t think carefully enough. Lai Qianxiu is a rich woman, and other men may be interested in this. Moreover, her husband died and she is single now. In this way, there are more opportunities. There may be men more attractive than Xiao Long.
Recently, Xiao Long has indeed become a little colder towards her, but he doesn't mean to alienate her. Maybe it's because being with one person for a long time will make him feel bored. Now, a new man has appeared. For her money, he will definitely do whatever it takes to please her. In this way, she is likely to change her heart. Moreover, he has been asking for money from her recently. She is so stingy, so she may Deliberately alienate Xiao Long. It was strange. Xiao Long, who had never been jealous of Lai Qianxiu, instantly felt sourness flowing through his body. Xiao Long suddenly felt like he had been betrayed, and his whole body was on fire. What kind of man was he? Judging from the words of the waitress at Shanye Village, the other party should be forty-three years old. If that is the case, he is much younger than Lai Qianxiu, which also worries Xiao Long.
