He wrote a line of words on it, then tore it off and handed it to Xu Wenping.

“Alright, this is the address. Take it.”

“Alright, Principal Zhou. Thank you so much. Have a good rest. We’ll set off immediately.”

“Wait a minute. If you rush over now, won’t the sky be dark when you reach that place? Moreover, the place he lives in is remote. It’s in a very remote small village. I went there about ten years ago, but it’s said that the place has become even more potholes. Moreover, it’s really difficult to find.”

“It’s alright. No matter what kind of difficulties it is, I don’t think it’ll be a problem. Xiao Zhou, are you fine with it?”

“Oh, I’m definitely fine. Alright then, Uncle, you can stay at home. I’ll visit you again when I’m back. We’ll be leaving first.”

“Alright, alright, alright. Then you must be careful on the way. That’s all.”

As he spoke, he stood up and left with the two of them.

Principal Zhou stood at the side and chatted for a long time. Then, he staggered back to his desk and took out his phone to make a call.

After the two of them got into the car, Xu Wenping was obviously still feeling a little nervous. He kept reading the note with the address in his hand.

“President Xu, what’s wrong?”

“I keep feeling that there’s something going on. Don’t you think that your uncle seems to be a little hesitant when he answers my questions?”

“Hesitation? What’s there to hesitate about? Why didn’t 1 feel it?”

“You might be inside the situation and can’t see clearly from the outside. However, 1 can clearly see it. Especially when I asked Old Li, he didn’t seem to want to reveal too much.”

“But that’s not right. If he’s not willing to reveal too much to us, can’t he just tell us that he’s not in contact with him anymore, or that he doesn’t know where he went? Why did he say that they just talked on the phone last week?”

“That’s why I’ve written down all my doubts here. However, he gave me a very strange feeling that 1 can’t quite put my finger on.”

“President Xu, you’re not suspecting that my uncle is hiding something and feel that the truth behind your sister’s disappearance has something to do with my uncle, are you?”

“I don’t think so. 1 just feel that your uncle is helping someone.”

“Help someone? Help with what? Are you saying that it’s that gatekeeper, Old Li?”

“Yes, that might be the case.”

“That shouldn’t be the case. What’s there to help with? Although I know that he has a good relationship with Old Li, the gatekeeper, I don’t think he would cover up for him in this matter.”

“Also, why don’t you think about it carefully? How big was the school? Moreover, how many students entered and left the school every day? I’ve always wondered why he was able to remember my sister so desperately. Why was he so sure that my sister left through the school gate? I don’t believe that he really saw her so clearly.”

This was where all the doubts lay. In fact, Xu Wenping had reflected on this matter more than once before.

“I just feel that none of these things seem to be able to be established on their own. If you take each of them out and talk about them individually, they all exist to a certain extent.”

“But on the contrary, stringing everything together seems to have become a complete chain of evidence. It’s simply impeccable.”

“If I remember correctly, this Old Li should have been around 6o years old back then.”

“Yes, 6o years old. My parents remember very clearly that the old gatekeeper of their school was around 6o years old. However, he was very healthy and seemed to be fine.”

“A 6o-year-old man was at the gate post. Even if he was sitting with students coming and going from there, how could he remember that my sister went out alone? Moreover, she was walking to the right. How did he see it so clearly?”

Now, even Xiao Zhou felt that there was indeed something suspicious about the matter.

Those people were very strange. There were clearly many suspicious points here back then, but why didn’t anyone continue to investigate?

If they had continued to follow this clue back then, they would have gotten a different answer. However, it was now io years later. They really didn’t know if these uncertain clues still existed in the human world.

“Let’s not talk about this for now. 1 believe that we can only truly understand it after we meet him. Oh right, I opened the map just now and took a look. It will take about 3 hours and 40 minutes to get there by car. Moreover, from the map, it seems that there is no road at all.”

“It’s okay. If there’s no road, we’ll park the car nearby and walk in.”

“Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Zhou. Besides, I’m afraid we won’t be able to make it back in time tonight after all the trouble we’ve been through today. I reckon we’ll have to wait until tomorrow at the earliest.”

“Hehe, it’s alright. I’m all alone anyway. It’s my honor to be by your side. Don’t worry. Just stay in the car and have a good sleep. Three hours should pass very quickly.”

Xu Wenping nodded. Then, he turned his head to the side and closed his eyes.

Xu Wenping couldn’t keep his eyes open for more than three hours. At the very least, he had to let himself conserve his energy because he really didn’t know what he would face when he arrived at the small village.

At home, he fell asleep in a daze. Suddenly, he seemed to be awakened by a scream. Xu Wenping opened his eyes and found that he was in a dark and damp place.

It was really strange. He was clearly sitting in the car just now. Why was he alone now?

“Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou.”

He shouted to the side, but he did not see Xiao Zhou at all.

This wasn’t right. Why did he suddenly transmigrate again? Could it be that the system was playing a new joke on him?

“System, are you there?”

Xu Wenping tried to re-establish communication with the system, but he realized that the system did not respond to him at all..
