Chapter 184 The Past Becomes a Mystery
Wu Qingluan did wait until Gu Nankai came to pick her up in person.
But after picking up Wu Qingluan, Gu Nankai did not take her to see the mysterious Mr. Huo Jiu , but took her away directly.
"What's going on? Didn't you say you were going to meet Mr. Huo Jiu? Why did you just leave?" Wu Qingluan followed Gu Nankai in confusion and asked his questions.
"I suddenly thought of a clue. The problem here has been solved. They will help with Liangzi's matter. We have to go to another place now." Gu Nankai explained to Wu Qingluan while urging her to get in the car.
"Gu Nankai, it's not that simple, what are you hiding from me?"
Wu Qingluan obviously didn't believe what he said. Although she got into the car, she didn't start it. Instead, she turned to Gu Nankai and stared into his eyes and questioned him.
"What is your relationship with the owner of this place? Also, I never knew there was such a person in Longhai who could buy two golf courses and merge them together to live in them." She finally asked her doubts. Everything she had just experienced made her feel incredible.
Gu Nankai seemed very natural. He smiled softly and said, "The old man used to be a gangster, but he got out in time. I saved his life by accident, but he retired later. Due to our identities, we have not had much contact until now, but we both remember this favor, so it is just a piece of cake to ask him for Liangzi's matter."
There was nothing wrong with what he said, but Wu Qingluan always felt that he was hiding something. She looked at Gu Nankai in disbelief, but seeing that he looked so righteous, she really couldn't tell anything.
She simply stopped guessing. She would not be so ignorant as to ask about something that others were trying their best to hide. Thinking of this, Wu Qingluan suppressed all the doubts in her heart, started the car and asked Gu Nankai: "Where are we going now? Didn't you say you had a new clue?"
Gu Nankai was relieved that Wu Qingluan stopped questioning him. He was really afraid that Wu Qingluan would not let him go and would keep asking questions. He didn't know how to explain it, so when he heard Wu Qingluan asking him, he quickly changed the subject: "The last time I checked the bodies with Shang Lu, I found that Tiger Lord and Chen Hui had looked at , and the arrow poison also entered their bodies through the wounds on their teeth, so we are going to the dental clinic at Tiger Lord's home to see if we can find any clues."
"Have you ever had your teeth checked?" Wu Qingluan frowned as she turned the car around.
"Are you sure where they had their teeth checked? If not, then our trip would have been in vain." She quickly expressed her doubts.
Gu Nankai moved his arm slightly and said, "Based on Mr. Tiger's personality, do you think he would go to a regular hospital for a checkup?"
Wu Qingluan quickly shook her head: "Basically not. The most likely possibility is that he just took a look nearby. For people like Tiger Lord, this kind of trouble is the most annoying."
Gu Nankai raised his lips and said, "Yes, the two places Tiger Lord often goes to are either Xu Jing and her friends' place, because that's where he and his brothers get together, or Li Wen's house. But I observed a few days ago that there is no dental clinic near Li Wen's house, so we can't find any clues there. Xu Jing's house is a possibility."
After Gu Nankai said this, Wu Qingluan didn't say much and drove directly in that direction.
"If we find someone who can check his teeth, maybe we can learn something." Gu Nankai took a deep breath, his tone filled with a hint of hope.
Wu Qingluan curled her lips and said, "I think it's a bit far-fetched. At best, it can prove that he has had his teeth checked. What else can it prove? It can't prove anything."
Gu Nankai sighed and didn't speak for a long while. After a long while, he finally said, "We should try our best. I always feel that I have overlooked something important. I should not miss these clues. What if we can find something important?"
Wu Qingluan didn't say anything, just drove with his eyes fixed straight ahead.
As Gu Nankai expected, he found a dental clinic not far from where Tiger Ye and his brothers gathered. It was just hidden a little deep, and it would have been difficult to find if it weren't for the neighbors living nearby.
The doctor in the clinic is an elderly man who originally lived here. He opened a dental clinic in this area when he was young. Now that he is old, the old neighbors still come to him for dentistry from time to time. He has been doing this for a lifetime and has a certain reputation. Occasionally, people will come to his door specifically. For convenience, he put up a sign of the clinic. In fact, it is his own home. As he is old, he doesn't do this much. Occasionally, he will check it, which is just a piece of cake.
When Gu Nankai and the others explained their purpose, the old man spoke without thinking: "You are talking about Hu Zi. I have a deep impression of him."
This was beyond Gu Nankai's expectations.
"Old man, could you please tell me in detail what happened at that time?" Gu Nankai said quickly.
The old man was also very cooperative and recalled what happened on the day when Mr. Tiger came to see the doctor.
"It was getting late that day and I was ready to go to bed, but I didn't expect someone to knock on the door. I opened the door because I didn't want to disturb the neighbors. As soon as I opened the door, I realized it was Hu Zi."
Gu Nankai nodded and quickly asked the old man, "Are you familiar with Zhao Bin, the Hu Zi?"
The old man smiled and said, "Of course I don't know him. I've known him since he was a kid. He's a gangster with no education. He just likes to fight and kill people on this street. He has no future and everyone avoids him. That day he said he had a toothache and asked me to take a look. I'm an old man and there are two of us on his side. I didn't dare to refuse him, so I let him take a look."
"Two people?" Gu Nankai frowned quickly. Did this Tiger Master bring another person with him?
"Yes, two people said their teeth were uncomfortable and asked me to take a look. I took a look and found that it was obviously because they smoked too much and didn't brush their teeth often. Their teeth were rotten. As an old guy, I don't have the ability to deal with them, so I just fooled them and let them go." The old man didn't realize that there was anything wrong and continued to speak truthfully.
Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan quickly exchanged a glance, and Wu Qingluan quickly found Chen Hui's photo on her phone and showed it to the old man: "Uncle, take a look, is this the person who came with Zhao Bin?"
But when the old man saw the photo, he shook his head and said, "No, no, it's definitely not this person. That person is much older than this person."
Gu Nankai's expression changed slightly. Who was the person who came to see the dentist with Tiger Master?
"Uncle, do you know the person who came here with Master Hu? Is he the brother he usually hangs out with? Or have you seen that person?" Gu Nankai asked a few more questions.
The old man looked at the photo many times, and finally shook his head: "I don't know him, he shouldn't be from our side, but Hu Zi and that person seem to be quite familiar with each other. I think... although Hu Zi is a little younger than him, that person is more likely to listen to Hu Zi."
"What do you mean?" Gu Nankai asked quickly.
"Young man, I can't say for sure. They didn't say much when they came over. That man looked like he had a serious toothache and didn't say a word. It was Hu Zi who said a few words to me. I just figured out some problems based on my observations in my lifetime, and I don't know if I'm right." The old man returned the phone to Gu Nankai, and as he spoke, he seemed to want to chase them away.
