Chapter 0069 Fan Datong's Past!
"Has District Chief Liu eaten yet?"
Li Youtian's tone was obsequious:
"How about we go to a restaurant first, so I can properly show you some hospitality?"
"No need for hospitality."
Liu Bai waved his hand and got straight to the point:
"Immediately send someone familiar with Yunhua Lane to take me there."
The federal government's search revealed Fan Datong's address, and the people who survived last week's events.
Both of these things point to that.
The spirit's location is most likely there, and it might even be that of Fan Datong!
So as soon as he came in, he planned to go to Yunhua Lane immediately!
"Yunhua Lane? Let me think about it."
Li Youtian immediately began to think.
The city has already given orders that he should cooperate fully throughout the process.
He had to do whatever Liu Bai said.
"lead……"
The young man behind Li Youtian suddenly said:
"I live in Yunhua Lane, so I'm quite familiar with that area."
"Xiao Chen?"
Li Youtian's eyes lit up, and he looked at Liu Bai, saying:
"Minister Liu, Xiao Chen grew up in Yunhua Lane and knows that area very well."
"Let's go with him."
Without wasting words, Liu Bai glanced at the young man and took out a short knife from his pocket, then approached Xiao Chen.
Chen Keke silently pulled out a mini gun and aimed it at Xiao Chen.
However, at this moment, Li Youtian and Xiao Chen's eyes were on Liu Bai, so they did not notice Chen Keke's actions.
Liu Bai approached Xiao Chen, who was looking puzzled, and gently sliced Xiao Chen's palm with his short knife.
Xiao Chen was unharmed.
Liu Bai then went to Li Youtian and repeated the same action.
Li Youtian also did not respond.
Liu Bai nodded in satisfaction and said to Xiao Chen:
"If everything is fine, let's go."
Chen Keke immediately put away the mini pistol.
Xiao Chen was taken aback for a moment.
He clearly didn't understand the implications of his younger leader doing this.
But he didn't dare ask.
After all, even his superiors were so polite to this young man...
……
……
The three walked out of the town office.
Xiao Chen walked at the front, leading the two towards Yunhua Lane.
Liu Bai looked at Xiao Chen and asked:
Do you know someone named Fan Datong in Yunhua Lane?
"Fan Datong?"
Xiao Chen frowned, then nodded and said:
"I've heard of him, but this person..."
He hesitated.
"What's wrong with this person?"
Liu Bai stared intently at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen scratched his head and said:
"He left the town three years ago..."
"Left?" Liu Bai frowned. "Then why does the population department's query show he's still here?"
Xiao Chen answered truthfully:
"His household registration was originally here, but he lived alone, and his registration wasn't transferred after he left..."
"So, who is he? Do you remember him?"
"Yes! I have a pretty good impression of him, after all, we're neighbors."
Xiao Chen nodded vigorously and said:
"I've seen his information. He was picked up by a kid named Fan Zhi five years ago. As for his personality... he's a bit silly and simple-minded, and it seems like he's had amnesia. He doesn't understand anything, but what impressed me most was how quickly he learned things, incredibly quickly!"
"Because he learned things quickly and was hardworking and capable, the neighbors in Yunhua Lane took him in, rented him a room, and let him work as an assistant in a breakfast shop."
After saying that, Xiao Chen noticed Liu Bai frowning and added:
"But I later heard from others that he gambled away a lot of money, and even got into an accident and had to pay compensation... In the end, he left the town to work in other places to pay off his debts..."
"Then take me to see Fan Datong's former residence," Liu Bai said calmly, frowning.
"Yes, boss."
Xiao Chen immediately agreed.
Liu Bai stopped talking and quickly followed Xiao Chen toward the street.
Based on this information, he could basically confirm that Fan Datong was the body of the second-generation spirit parasite.
Simultaneously.
He had a hypothesis in his mind.
Could it be that Fan Datong left the town because of Su Yumu's 300,000 yuan?
But this...
He found it somewhat unbelievable.
A second-generation spirit, with the ability to modify cognition, surely losing 300,000 shouldn't be enough to cause this...
And isn't this a bit too low-class?
Making money is a piece of cake for Lingxiang!
And since he has left the town.
Then why did it reappear at midnight tonight and even incite fake people to start a massacre?
What is the reason for this?
Liu Bai squinted and looked at the crowd around the street.
The streets were crowded with people, each carrying a torch and following the lead lion dance troupe, banging drums and gongs as they paraded through the streets.
"Hey ha! Hey ha!"
"Hoho! Hoho!"
A group of burly men, shirtless, carried a flower boat and squeezed into the crowd, shouting deafeningly.
Among the crowd, adults held torches and children carried lanterns, following the main group as they moved along the road.
Bustling.
The scene was incredibly lively.
Chen Keke followed behind Liu Bai, looking curiously at the street.
Such scenes are only documented in cultural heritage classes.
Liu Bai had no time to admire the scenery, and followed Xiao Chen quickly through the streets and alleys.
The town's roads are intricate and complex; without someone to guide you, you could waste a lot of time, which is why he contacted the locals.
After about ten minutes, the three of them went through several alleys and returned to the main road.
"Boss, Yunhua Lane is right across the street."
Xiao Chen stopped and pointed to a small alley across from the main road.
The alley was only ten meters away from them, and it was very narrow.
The alley entrance is only about three meters wide.
At that moment, at the entrance of the alley, stood a thin boy and a couple.
Xiao Chen led Liu Bai across the road:
"Sir, the house of that boy in the short-sleeved shirt is the same place where Fan Datong used to live, and that boy..."
Liu Bai followed Xiao Chen across the road.
He had just crossed the street when he heard a woman's voice questioning him:
"Why do they only bully you and not others? No matter what, it's wrong of you to hit someone!"
"I..." the boy said, head bowed.
Beside the boy, a middle-aged man also spoke up:
"Your mother is right, Fan Zhi."
"No matter what, hitting someone is wrong."
"Your mom and dad finally came back, and then we received a complaint from your teacher. Dad has to go to your school tomorrow..."
"You'll go to school with Dad tomorrow and apologize to that person! We're already poor; if you hit someone, where am I going to get the money to pay them back?"
"But they hit me first!"
The boy kept his head down, his voice soft and trembling slightly.
But it was crystal clear.
"Then why don't they hit someone else?"
The woman's voice was sharp, and she addressed the boy in a questioning tone.
The boy clenched his fists, and his thin arms trembled.
He didn't speak, and lowered his head even further.
Hearing the voice, Liu Bai frowned and stared at the boy.
Xiao Chen quickly stepped forward, interrupting their conversation:
"Uncle Fan, you're back?"
"Secretary Chen?"
Upon seeing Xiao Chen, the middle-aged man immediately flashed a fawning smile and said:
"Yes, I just got back today. SE's factory is closed, so we have to go back to town to find some work. By the way, Secretary Chen, aren't you going to the park for the holiday?"
"I'm still at work right now."
Xiao Chen shook his head and turned to look at Liu Bai, saying:
"This is a high-ranking official from the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Criminal Investigation Department. He needs to speak with your Xiao Fan."
"Looking for Fan Zhi?"
The man paused for a moment.
Xiao Chen nodded and said:
"That's right, this criminal investigation bureau leader needs to find Fan Datong, whom your son used to bring back."
"That big idiot?"
The woman spoke first, glaring fiercely at Fan Zhi, and said:
"I told you we shouldn't have kept that guy of dubious origin around! Look at you!"
She pointed to the boy's head and said in a tone of disappointment:
"The matter of you hitting your classmate isn't over yet, and now you've gotten the police chief to come in person..."
"That's enough!"
For the first time, impatience appeared on Liu Bai's face, and he looked coldly at the woman.
"You fucking shut up!"
