Joe didn't see Eunice's message right away.
For two hours, two full hours, he has been busy contacting all kinds of people who can be contacted, checking port security records, pet consignment records, and passenger records...
All the registration records that can be found through their relationship network, all the surveillance images, photos and videos that have been preserved, all are required.
His communication has not stopped, and if he hangs up, he will dial a new one. He looked extremely busy, and he didn't stop his lips and tongue for two hours, so that his lips could be said to be dry.
The dean of the orphanage looked at him dumbfounded, and kept casting inquiring glances at Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan.
"It's okay." Gu Yan glanced in Qiao's direction and said solemnly, "... He just needs a way to vent."
They are no longer in the small archive room, but in a living room next to the archive room. Ke Jinan sat quietly on the sofa by the window. After the spotlight, he withdrew his gaze and stared at a certain point in the void in a daze.
With his back to everyone, Joe stood in a corner, covering his forehead, while talking to the person on the opposite side of the communication like a barrage of cannons.
Yan Sui's identity is inconvenient, there are few names in the address book, and there is nothing to contact.
On the other hand, Gu Yan found some credible friends, including Laura who was concerned about Ke Jin's situation.
Knowing the general situation, Laura exhausted her life's training and still couldn't hold back a curse, and then the lady who was so hot during her school days left a sentence: "Are you in the wine city? I'm going to the port now!"
Qiao's voice became hoarse. Hearing this, he turned his head and said to Gu Yan from a distance, "Laura? She wants to come here now? It's too rushed, it's actually unnecessary."
He actually looked calm, not as "crazy" as Eunice exaggerated, only the red bloodshot eyes in his eyes revealed his emotions.
Laura heard his voice and said in the communication: "It's not necessary or unnecessary. In fact, I don't know what I can do when I go there, but who cares, I want to find you now! Even if I talk with Ke Jin. Woolen cloth."
After she finished speaking, she hung up the communication.
Joe set up a new communication, repeating the same words countless times.
Until he flipped through the address book and found that he had already searched for all the trustworthy people and could not dial. He lowered his head, read the address book up and down several times, and finally put away the screen.
He just stood silently facing the wall for a while, took a deep breath, then turned around, and his eyes fell on Ke Jin.
Ke Jin was still in a daze, unaware.
Qiao looked at him for a long time, walked over softly, and stood still in front of Ke Jin.
He raised his hand slightly, as if he wanted to hug each other, but after hesitating for a while, he retracted it, his fingers clenched into fists.
He stood for a moment, then crouched down.
Ke Jin, who has been in a daze, finally realizes that there is another person in front of him.
Qiao raised his head and looked at him from his angle. Ke Jin nodded slightly, his eyes dropped from his drooping eyelashes, and looked at him quietly. At that moment, there was an extremely mild illusion.
This kind of look is extremely unbearable.
The bones at Qiao's jaw moved, as if clenched and loosened, and then he whispered to Ke Jin in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry..."
Sorry for taking so long to check but missing such details...
I'm sorry for not being able to find out the truth sooner, making you wait in a silent world for so many years...
Ke Jin's eyes moved for a moment, as if his spirit gathered for a moment, and then dispersed due to some physical force majeure.
He just stared at Qiao Fa for a while with his eyes down, and was distracted by the sound outside the window.
With just such a shift in sight, Joe lowered his head as if he couldn't stand it, and his eyes turned red. He frowned, closed his eyes, pinched the bridge of his nose, and knelt there without speaking for a long time.
As soon as Yan Suizhi's eyes fell, he felt that someone had touched his face.
He turned his head and saw Gu Yan squinting at the door.
He was stunned for a moment, then realized it, and got up quietly. The three walked out of the reception room and closed the door for them.
"You sit here for a while, and I'll have someone bring the prepared refreshments."
"No."
"Yes." The old dean pushed them into the empty room next door and said, "Go in and sit."
He said, glanced at the room where Qiao and Ke Jin were staying, and walked away with a sigh.
There are not many orphanages under repair, and the most vacant houses. As soon as the two sat down in the room next to them, the old dean really came back with refreshments.
Yan Suizhi and the others got up to help, put the refreshments on the high table, and then sat down again.
"When I'm old, I'm not feeling well if I'm hungry for a while." The old dean muttered, "I also left some refreshments for the two people next door, and I'll eat some when they come out later, my face is too bad."
He said, bowing his head and taking a slow sip of tea.
Yan Suizhi's eyes swept around his face and said, "President, do you have something to say?"
The old dean moved for a while, swallowed the tea slowly, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I have something to say, but I haven't thought about telling you whether it will cause you trouble."
Yan Suizhi turned the cup and said to him warmly, "Tell me about it, and only after listening will you know that Ma is not troublesome."
"I just listened to it, and what you said... reminded me of an incident I encountered before." The old dean said.
In fact, before that, he avoided talking about some things.
But just now in the next door, these young guests did not avoid the old man at all when they dialed the communication to explain the matter. It is obvious that he has released absolute respect and trust for him first.
So if he knew something but kept his mouth shut, he would be betraying the goodwill of these young people.
"Before this, my orphanage was closed for several years, do you know that?" said the old dean.
Yan Suizhi said: "I heard a little, but what I heard is that it is temporarily closed."
That's why he still left a share in the inheritance distribution.
The old dean nodded and said, "Yes, at that time, it was said that there was a problem with the business and it was temporarily closed. But in fact, I really thought about not opening it anymore."
"why?"
The old dean did not directly explain the reason. He was lost for a moment and said, "You may not know that, when I was young, I worked for the alliance government, supervising welfare homes, orphanages and some charitable funds. I was transferred to the wine city. At that time, the wine city was even more chaotic than it is now. When I first came here, I was very desperate, and I felt that my life would be spent here. Later, I might have had shit luck and ran into a kind consortium to talk to The Liquor City government is cooperating and wants to pull this side…”
Hearing this, Yan Suizhi's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't speak.
On the contrary, Gu Yan responded, "I heard a little."
Most of the infrastructure of the wine city was refurbished and upgraded with the support of that consortium, otherwise it would be a veritable interstellar slum and garbage dump.
"Actually, it's not a consortium, it's an anonymous alliance." The old dean said, "A very caring person, very kind. The initial funds were also used in the place, let's take a look at the facilities still in use in the wine city. I know. But the good times didn’t last long, and it became more and more unclear where the money would go. The water was too deep. I just transferred to the wine city. I have a title but no real power. It went against my original intention, so I simply left the public office and started this welfare home myself."
"Probably more than ten years ago, there was a series of cases on Decama's side." The old director recalled, "The main culprit was the deputy director of a hospital, who was mainly responsible for the direction of technical research, and was accused of using the name of treatment. It has caused many people to suffer from genetic testing on patients. Oh, by the way, you may have heard of this case. It was Mr. Yan who handled the case at the beginning, aren't you his students?"
Halfway through hearing this sentence, Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan already frowned, but they quickly regained their looks.
Hearing the question from the old dean, they nodded and said, "I do know."
"When Mr. Yan accepted the case, the defendant was acquitted. But after that, he was accused in court again. He deserved it and went to prison." The old dean said, "In fact, there are still other cases in this case. Some follow-ups."
Yan Suizhi: "Follow-up?"
"Yes. In addition to Decama, the main base for the defendant's genetic experiments also has a wine city. The scale of the wine city is much larger than that of Decama, and the construction and operation of the original construction and operation were all over the top. It was in the name of the government, and it used the funds provided by the kind consortium." The old dean said, "Because this matter is mainly involved in the wine city government, it will become more chaotic here, and it will be handled in secret. Unless high-level government officials , other people can't find anything. I still rely on my original position and contacts to know something. "
The old dean sighed and said, "I was quite aggressive at the time, but I was angry when I found out. I screened all the information I had when I was in office, and contributed some key evidence. In the end, it led to a big change in the staff of the Jiucheng government, that The consortium also interrupted its financial support for the wine city. After that, it pushed the tide and pushed the censorship in the wine city to Decama. Didn’t Decama have an innovation a few years ago, and all residents have undergone identity verification. and address updates.”
The audit of Yan Suizhi was quite impressive, because when registering his residence, the system jumped for a long time, and his habitual residence was regarded as a long-distance shuttle by default.
The old dean continued: "Actually, the essence is to conduct an inventory of Decama. It is said that the driving force behind it is the consortium that was scammed in the wine city. I learned from friends in the government that that time actually warned against Few people, the rats in the gutter will either be killed, or they will be moved urgently."
It is said that persimmons are soft, and the old dean offended people because of that series of incidents, and the orphanage was forced to close.
At one time, he felt that it was a headache to be troubled, and he thought about getting away from it completely, raising flowers and plants by himself, why bother with the lives of others.
Only recently did he change his mind when he received Yan Suizhi's inheritance.
"The reason why I think this matter has something to do with you is because I saw the shepherd bird you were looking for when I was looking for key evidence and before and after the welfare home was forced to close." The old dean said, "But at the time, I just thought this bird was strange, so I didn't think much about it."
Gu Yan frowned and thought for a while, then asked, "Who is the anonymous funder behind the consortium you mentioned?"
To be able to help to check the wine city and check the Decama, you must have something in your hand, and you must know some key information.
