The result was very disappointing …
There were only a few things in the old box.
An old-fashioned razor and a flashlight. These were all things that Uncle Jing often used when he was alive.
There was also an old cellphone. It was the oldest model and was equivalent to an old man's phone. It couldn't be turned on anymore.
Huo Mien secretly took out the cellphone and put it in her bag. If she wanted to take out the cellphone's chip, she would have to find a professional.
Perhaps she would be able to find out who Uncle Jing was with before and after the accident seven years ago.
There was also half a pack of unfinished cigarettes. It was a rather old brand.
The kind that cost five yuan a pack. Beside it was a lighter.
It seemed that her mother still missed Uncle Jing, so she kept these things.
At the bottom was a book that Uncle Jing often read. It was very funny.
It wasn't a classic book, nor was it a more exciting martial arts novel.
It was a fortune-telling book, the kind that didn't ask for help.
Huo Mien flipped it open and saw that there were fortune-telling, fortune-telling, and the twelve zodiac signs.
These had always been popular in the countryside, because most of the villagers believed in these so-called fortune-telling.
Huo Mien remembered that Uncle Jing used to love reading it. Sometimes, he would look at the almanac before going out.
She thought that this kind of book wouldn't have any clues. Unintentionally, Huo Mien flipped to the calendar of the month she was born.
On the perpetual calendar, it was September 18th, 1992. Someone had circled it with a pen.
This wasn't strange. After all, it was Huo Mien's birthday. It was normal for Uncle Jing to mark it for her.
But the strangest thing was that at the bottom of the book, there were three words written in black with a ballpoint pen.
Regret.
Only the words "regret." The handwriting was a little messy. It was obvious that it was written by Uncle Jing.
When they were organizing the belongings, no one looked through it carefully, so they didn't find it.
Now, it seemed that Uncle Jing was referring to regret. Was it because he knew that she wasn't Yang Meirong's child and brought her back? Or was there something else?
Huo Mien had more questions when he found this …
"The milk is ready, Mian."
Huo Mien immediately closed the small box when he heard the noise.
"Thank you, Mom." She took the milk and drank it slowly.
Yang Meirong glanced at Jing De's belongings with a sad look in her eyes …
"This guy doesn't have the life to enjoy a good life. In the past, he raised our entire family by himself. Now that our lives are better, he's gone … How ironic." Yang Meirong sighed.
"Mom … Uncle Jing didn't have any savings these years?"
"That's not true. He's just a chauffeur. It's already good enough that he can support his family. Before the accident, he told me that he wanted to partner up with someone to do something. In the end, the accident happened … At the end of the day, he just doesn't have the life of a rich man."
Huo Mien lowered her head and didn't say anything. She remembered Huo Siqian mentioning that Huo Zhenghai had given Jing De two hundred thousand yuan.
It seemed that Jing De had never taken out the money to give to his mother.
Therefore, she also suspected that the flow of money had something to do with her background.
Uncle Jing seemed to be in contact with someone behind Mother's back …
She stayed at her mother's house until late at night. She didn't leave until Qin Chu came to pick her up.
Huo Mien didn't mention the phone and the belongings to Qin Chu.
This was because she heard from Qin Chu and Rick that Qin Chu had been investigating this incident.
However, this incident was very strange. People kept disappearing …
Therefore, Huo Mien didn't want Qin Chu to take any more risks because of her …
"Honey, what are you thinking about?" Qin Chu asked gently when he saw that she was a little distracted.
"Nothing … I just miss Zhixin." Huo Mien changed the subject.
"Didn't Zhixin send you a WeChat message? He's settled down over there. Everything is fine. "
"Yeah, he told me." Huo Mien nodded.
The couple went home and went to bed early. The next afternoon.
Huo Mien took advantage of the lunch break to go find Jiang Xiaowei at the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Although Jiang Xiaowei was pregnant, she didn't hesitate at all and continued to work at the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Wei Liao was also at the company during the day. The couple was busy with their own work.
Jiang Xiaowei was very happy to see Huo Mien. She grabbed his hand and said, "We know each other so well. I was just about to ask you out for lunch. Let's go, we have authentic Cantonese food downstairs."
Before Huo Mien could say anything, Jiang Xiaowei pulled Huo Mien all the way to the restaurant downstairs.
"Xiaowei, I'm here today because I need your help."
