Chapter 096
Shimen Yihshyong
The person who looked very much like their dahge, Duanmuh Shannchyuan, stretched out his right hand as the tall and bulky man carrying a long wooden staff arrived right in front of him. The tall and bulky man immediately gave the wooden staff to him. Their "dahge" held the wooden stick while observing it for a while. He nodded and smiled. After that, he returned the wooden staff to the tall man.
What is this? Dahge knew those people already?
After saying something, which Yihshyong couldn't guess at all, their dahge then got into the car.
"Dahge got into that car voluntarily!" Iren's voice sounded so surprised."
The car walked away with their dahge inside.
"Where has he gone? What should we do now?" Iren's eyebrows rose high. There was anxiety in his voice.
"I don't know." Yihshyong shook his head. "There's nothing we need to do. I don't think Dahge is in any danger. So we don't need to worry."
"You really believe we don't have to do anything?"
"This must have been in his plans. If we act rashly, I'm afraid we'll end up messing up Dahge's plans."
Iren nodded. His face still looked unsure. "Are we going to wait for Dahge to come back?"
"Wait where?"
"Of course, in this diner."
What's wrong with Iren? Maybe today isn't a good day for him.
"We don't know what time he'll be back here. We don't even know if Dahge will ever be back to this place. Maybe this is just one of those places where he finds clues to things he's investigating. Now he's going to the other places to look for other clues."
"What is Shyongge talking about? Clues about which incident?"
"I don't know either. Maybe Dahge will tell us when it's clear."
Iren sat up nervously.
Yihshyong took a deep breath. "Don't worry too much. I'm sure there must be a reasonable explanation for all of this."
"Then we'd better go back to Mr. Shiuander's friend's warehouse now." Iren turned back to look out the window.
"It's still a few minutes to eleven. If we go back now, I'm sure we'll have a long wait there."
"Waiting here is also the same. In fact, it's not good if we wait here too long. Don't we impede other people's business?"
"Inhibiting what business? Right now, apart from the two of us, there are only four other customers in this diner. Don't worry. Neither party will be bothered by our presence here." Yihshyong chuckled. "I want us to stick to our original plan. We will be back at Mr. Jingdu's warehouse at twelve o'clock."
"Then I'll order another drink. We'll still be sitting for the next hour. It won't be nice if we order nothing else."
"Fine! We'll order more drinks." Yihshyong nodded.
They then called the waitress to order additional drinks. Not even three minutes later, the drinks had arrived. Iren was so happy when he saw the glasses.
"Here's one for me, and one for you."
After taking one gulp, Yihshyong then laid his head down on the table again.
"Are you going to sleep again?"
"Yes." Yihshyong nodded quickly. "Earlier I only slept for such a short time. So I want to continue first. You'll wake me up when it's twelve o'clock."
Just as Yihshyong closed his eyes, he felt someone shaking his shoulder.
Ah! It's so hard to take a break! Today, Iren is so restless!
"What else is there? Is Dahge back across the street yet?"
"You have to see that. Come on! Let's see!"
Yihshyong raised his head. He saw Iren looking out the window. His finger pointed at something or someone that was outside. Reluctantly, Yihshyong turned his gaze outside the window. Their dahge wasn't there. But there was another person standing right where their dahge had been standing.
"Who's that? Do we know that person?" Yihshyong narrowed his eyes. He tried to identify the person.
"Shyongge, that's the girl Dahge chased when we were at the mall!"
Yihshyong was taken aback. He rose from his seat right away.
Such an incident could hardly be called a coincidence!
"Are you sure?" Yihshyong stared at Iren closely.
I've only seen the girl once, so I can't be sure.
"Of course I'm sure. Before this, I've seen her three times. So, this time, I can't be wrong." Iren's face looked very serious when he said those words.
"I think this is very strange!"
"This is bizarre indeed. It's even a bit unreasonable!"
Yihshyong sat back down. He really needed a little time to be able to digest the sequence of events that had happened.
"So, what should we do now? Shouldn't we just walk over there and ask the girl?" Iren's voice sounded impatient.
"Asking about what?"
"Asking about who she is, and what is her relationship with Dahge? Even though Dahge doesn't want us to know what he is doing, I think it's okay if we get a little information from people who know him." Iren made a suggestion.
What Iren said did make sense. But not necessarily we will get a satisfactory answer.
"I'm afraid she will deny that she is Dahge's friend. You also only saw her conversing with Dahge once. Maybe, at that time, the girl just happened to meet Dahge on the street. Perhaps she was just asking for an address, or something else to do with it."
"Yes, that's possible. But wouldn't it be better if we tried asking?"
What should we do? Iren's proposal is something that I can't just ignore. But I'm really reluctant to do it. What if later Dahge gets angry when he finds out that we've been presumptuous to meddle in his personal affairs?
The girl standing across the street, wearing long pants and a long-sleeved shirt. The color of the trousers and the shirt were almost the same, which was light green. It's just that the color of his pants was a little darker than the color of the shirt she's wearing. The girl looked to the right and left of the road. Just like what their dahge had done earlier, the girl also seemed to be waiting for someone.
That means someone else will arrive there. This is very interesting!
"Shyongge!" Iren's voice sounded more impatient.
"Don't do anything! We'll see what happens after this."
About five minutes later, there was someone who came up to the girl.
"Who's she?" Yihshyong narrowed his eyes again.
"I don't know. I've never seen anyone like her." Iren shook his head.
The person who had just arrived was a woman who was also in her twenties. She wore a light blue dress. He then conversed briefly with the girl they were observing.
They had a lively conversation. It wasn't long before someone else came closer. The person who had just arrived was a young man who was around thirty years old. He wore a light brown shirt. Seeing the arrival of the young man, the woman in the light blue dress then said something to the girl in the light green dress.
Not long after the conversation, the girl who was wearing a light green shirt and trousers gave what looked like a card to the woman in the light blue dress. After that, the woman in the light blue dress left the girl standing across the street. He walked over to a man in a light brown shirt. Soon after, the two of them crossed the street and entered the restaurant where Yihshyong and Iren were observing all the happenings.
The couple then approached the table where Yihshyong and Iren were sitting.
Eh? They're headed here? Do they realize we are watching them?
The man and woman then sat down at a table that was right next to Yihshyong and Iren's table. The two people did not look at Iren and Yihshyong at all.
Now we have to be very careful!
"Was that your friend?" The voice of the man in the light brown shirt was so gentle. Slightly less suitable to his stature body.
The guy doesn't know who the girl is. So many possibilities open!
"No. I don't even know her." The woman in the light blue dress shook her head quickly.
Hah? My guess is not right?
With curiosity, Yihshyong tried to eavesdrop on their conversation. He didn't need to make much of an effort because the two of them were talking in quite loud voices.
Still, we must be vigilant. Maybe they are deliberately talking nonsense to misinform us!
"You don't know the girl, but chat with her?" The man laughed.
"I saw her holding a folder with the logo of a company where a friend of mine works. I haven't spoken to my friend in a long time. The last time I saw him was almost a year ago. Three months ago, I tried to contact the house where he's staying but apparently he's moved. The people who live there don't know where he's moved to."
"Why don't you go straight to where he works to see him?"
"I don't know where he works. I don't even know the name of the company he works for. I've only seen the logo of that company. The logo drawn on the folder that the girl is holding is exactly the same as the logo I've seen. So I intend to ask her. It's possible that she works in the same place as my friend."
"So she knows your friend?"
"No. Turns out that girl doesn't even work there. She got the folder from someone who works at that company. Earlier, she gave me that person's business card. The girl asked me to contact the person whose name is on the business card to find out information about my friend ."
It turned out that this was just a coincidence. But maybe not. Still open the possibility that they are playing.
"What is that girl doing here? Is she looking for something?"
"I didn't ask her that. I asked about the girl's accent instead. It was obvious that she came from somewhere else."
"Where is she from?"
"She said she was from Yeuandong. But she also said, because she had lived in several places, her accent was a mix of accents."
Yihshyong and Iren looked at each other. This fact was quite interesting. If the girl really was from Yeuandong, then there was a possibility that Shannchyuan and the girl knew each other.
"By the way, where's your friend?" The man in the light brown shirt looked around him.
He must have been looking for the waiter, who should have come over to them as soon as they sat down.
"She said she would be late. So she asked us to go inside and order food right away."
The man saw a waiter who appeared from the room behind the payment counter. He waved his hand at the waiter. The servant came immediately. But he did not immediately ask what food they would like to order. That person instead did something that Yihshyong found a little strange. He looked at the two of them without saying anything.
The service here sucks!
"What is it?" The woman in the light blue dress opened her mouth.
"Are you two the guests that Miss Hershyh is waiting for?" The waiter answered the girl's question with another question.
"That's right, we are friends of Hershyh Changpwu," replied the girl.
"Miss Hershyh has reserved a place upstairs," said the waiter. "Please come with me upstairs."
"Is Miss Hershyh upstairs yet?"
"Not yet ma'am! But she just called. She said she would be there in ten or fifteen minutes. She asked us to let her friends sit first in the place she had ordered."
"All right. We'll be there." The man nodded.
The two people quickly stood up. They then followed the waiter towards the stairs that led upstairs. Quickly, they disappeared from Yihshyong's sight.
Iren looked at Yihshyong. "If there are too many coincidences, then things might not just be coincidences.
Yihshyong nodded.
"Next, what are we going to do?" Iren frowned.
Yihshyong did not answer Iren's question. He turned his gaze back out the window. The girl was still standing there. Someone, or something, she was waiting for had not yet come.
Did the girl come too soon? Or did the person she was waiting for come late?
Suddenly, there was a little boy running toward the girl. He was about eight or nine years old. The boy then gave what appeared to be a piece of paper to the girl. She asked something to the little boy. The little boy shook his head. After the girl gave the money to him, the little boy ran away straight away. His face looked so happy. Or maybe it was just Yihshyong's guess.
Ah! The person she was waiting for chose another place as the meeting point. Did he suspect that the other party was tailing the girl?
The girl read the paper she had just received. After finishing reading, she put the paper in his trouser pocket. The girl then started walking.
"Where is she going?" Iren leaned forward.
"Now, hurry up and follow the girl," said Yihshyong. "Try not to find out you're tailing her."
"Huh? Are you serious?"
"Of course I'm serious. Can't you see the look on my face?" Yihshyong pointed at his own face.
Iren nodded. He quickly got up from the chair.
"Remember! Don't make contact with that girl unless it's an emergency."
"Then what about our business here?"
"You don't need two people to carry a bag, right? Let me handle this. I will tell Mr. Shiuander and Mr. Jingdu that you have to leave suddenly because you have other business."
Iren nodded. "Then what about our friends? What will you say later?"
"I'll tell them later that you ran into one of your friends out of the blue. Your friend asked you to talk to someone about work. In short, you got a job offer."
"All right! I'm leaving now!"
Iren then ran out of the restaurant. Yihshyong looked out the window. He could still see the girl walking away. The girl walked quickly. The girl's steps reminded Yihshyong of Shannchyuan's way of walking. It's not very similar, but not too different either.
What relationship exists between them?
Yihshyong looked at the watch on his wrist. Time seemed to be running very slowly. He didn't want to wait too long at Shiuander Janji's friend's warehouse. So Yihshyong would wait for a while at the restaurant.
