Back from the hotel.
Gao Qilan called Bai Xiaochen to the study.
Then he handed the diary left by his eldest brother Gao Qiqiang into his hands.
Gao Qilan hoped that Xiaochen could understand Gao Qiqiang's original good intentions.
The truth was just as she expected.
When Bai Xiaochen read the diary from beginning to end, he was extremely shocked!
Finally got it.
Why would a person who kept calling his son go to Hong Kong to hire a killer to kill him?
turn out to be,
Everything is because he knows there is no way out.
So I want to alleviate the sins of those around me in this way.
The diary is not very long.
But because it involved many helplessness and secrets in Gao Qiqiang's life, Bai Xiaochen still watched it for nearly two hours.
However.
Just when he was about to finish reading.
Suddenly discovered.
The last few pages of the diary seemed to have been torn out artificially.
This made him stunned.
I thought to myself: "Did my sister-in-law tear it apart?"
"Xiaochen, aren't you asleep yet?"
at this time.
Gao Qilan's voice sounded outside the study.
"Sister-in-law..."
Bai Xiaochen hesitated again and again and handed the diary to Gao Qilan's hand.
The diary is open.
It also happened to stop at the last few pages that were torn out.
However, Gao Qilan didn't pay attention at first. Instead, he said in surprise: "Have you finished reading it all?"
"Sister-in-law, those last few pages..."
Those last few pages?
Seeing Bai Xiaochen hesitate to speak, Gao Qilan subconsciously went to read it.
then.
She looked shocked and said, "Why are these pages torn?"
Gao Qilan's reaction made Bai Xiaochen a little stunned: "Don't you know, sister-in-law?"
"I actually only saw half of it, and I haven't had time to see the rest yet."
Speaking of which.
Gao Qilan couldn't help thinking: Has anyone else read this diary?
——
The next day.
Early in the morning.
Gao Qilan and Bai Xiaochen came to Qianhe Hall.
Song Jianguo was surprised to see Gao Qilan sitting in a wheelchair.
But for that.
Gao Qilan just said he was bitten by a dog and didn't explain any more.
Just when Song Jianguo was about to leave, Gao Qilan spoke again: "By the way, Uncle Song, please sit down first. I have something I want to tell you about."
Hearing this, Song Jianguo did not dare to refuse and hurriedly sat at the edge of the large round table exclusive to the Gao family.
"Uncle Song, could you please recall where you got the iron box that my brother left behind?" Gao Qilan asked.
"In the old house where you used to live."
Song Jianguo said with certainty: "Brother Qiang gave me a key to the old house before and said that he would help me clean it when it was empty."
"Later something happened to Brother Qiang, and the government said they were going to demolish your dormitory building. I thought there were still some things in it that belonged to Brother Qiang, and maybe you would need them when you came back, so I called the store. The man came with me to move here.”
"Do you remember the specific location?" Bai Xiaochen interrupted and asked.
Song Jianguo thought for a while and said, "It was just under the wooden bed on the second floor. No one noticed it at first, but later something rolled in. We only saw it after we lifted the bed board."
Just as Bai Xiaochen was about to ask again, Gao Qilan already smiled lightly and said, "Okay, sorry to trouble you, Uncle Song, you go and do your work first."
"Hey, okay, if you need something, just call me."
After Song Jianguo left.
Bai Xiaochen asked quietly in confusion: "Sister-in-law, why didn't you let me ask him again just now?"
"not him."
Gao Qilan picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then continued: "I checked it before and there was no sign that the iron box had been pried."
"Although the password is my birthday, even your second uncle may not remember this birthday, let alone someone else."
"Then according to what you said, sister-in-law, could it be that the following pages are my father..."
a year ago.
After Bai Xiaochen learned that the killer was sent by Gao Qiqiang, he vowed not to recognize him as his father again.
But now the misunderstanding is cleared.
After Bai Xiaochen learned that Gao Qiqiang was deliberately protecting himself.
The knot in my heart will naturally be untied.
"If Uncle Song didn't lie and the iron box was indeed found under the bed, then what you said may be very true."
Under Gao Qilan's analysis, Bai Xiaochen couldn't help laughing and said: "Sister-in-law, I find that you are becoming more and more like a detective now."
at this time,
Gao Qilan's cell phone suddenly rang.
It's only 7 o'clock in the morning.
If there is nothing special, generally no one will call me.
So much so.
Gao Qilan couldn't help but frowned slightly.
"Sister Lan, no good, something big happened!"
The phone was just picked up.
Zhu Huiru's exclamation as if the end of the world was about to come came from inside.
"Tell me, what's the big news this time?" Gao Qilan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"It's more than just big news."
"Sister Lan, do you know what Yang Zhenhua and Meng Dehai were talking about last night?"
"What to talk about?"
Zhu Huiru said into the phone in a mysterious tone as if she had discovered someone's adultery, "They are talking about the Qinghua District Southern Development Zone project."
"Southern Development Zone?"
Gao Qilan frowned: "Isn't this project completed a long time ago?"
"It's completed, but this year several villages and towns in the south will also be assigned to our Jinghai City, so they are planning this."
"Sister Lan, this is a super big project worth tens of billions. I didn't expect that these people would be so naughty and want to operate behind the scenes!" Zhu Huiru said.
Gao Qilan pondered for a moment and asked, "Where did you hear this news?"
"Well……"
Zhu Huiru hesitated and said: "Sister Lan, if I tell you, you can't scold me."
"Okay, I won't scold you, just say it quickly."
"Actually, sister Xiaoyu and I were bored, so we installed bugs in every private room in the hotel."
"Then what?"
"Then I got curious."
"I wanted to hear what Meng Yu, that white-eyed wolf, was mumbling to our mortal enemy last night, and then I heard this..." Zhu Huiru said.
actually,
About this project.
Gao Qilan had also guessed before.
But there was no clear news from the district.
Naturally, she stopped paying attention.
But now...
