“I love my family very much. So, I’m going to kill the man who hurt my family.’

‘Well…’

Anya frowned.

“That’s bullshit logic.”

“…”

The corners of Su Bancheng’s mouth curled up. “Your words belie your uncertainty. Good. You’re actually considering the possibility.”

Anya sneered and looked at Su Bancheng. “Stop playing dumb. I’m not here to listen to your baseless speculations.”

Su Bancheng shrugged and said nothing.

This was only speculation. After all, according to the information, Xu Bai had a sufficient alibi when the driver went missing. At the very least, there were at least a dozen neighbors in the old factory area that could prove that Xu Bai was in the market when the driver went missing.

And yet…

Su Bancheng used his “Heavenly Fortune Divination” to predict the fate of the driver.

The result was obscurity. Nothing could be seen. However, that was impossible. An ordinary person’s fate was not worth hiding. Unless he wasn’t an ordinary person, or there was something superhuman about him. It was not impossible for Su Bancheng to divine the fate of a superhuman, but he did not think that the driver or Xu Bai was worth it.

Su Bancheng smiled and said casually, “I’m just stating my theory. Even though I don’t have any evidence, the facts line up.”

Anya stood up expressionlessly. She couldn’t be bothered to listen to Su Bancheng’s nonsense anymore. “Alright, I came here to tell you that it’s your business to arrest Xiao Jingnan. But if you make a big deal out of this, don’t blame us. Don’t say that we’re snatching your case from you.”

Su Bancheng shook his head and stood up. He smiled and said, “Of course not. In fact, I seem to have forgotten to tell you something. We already have one of Xiao Jingnan’s subordinates in Fengcheng. If Xiao Jingnan wants to come back, he will definitely contact this subordinate of his first.”

Anya frowned. “Who?”

Su Bancheng smiled and said nothing.

Anya looked at Su Bancheng and kept quiet. She glanced at the file on the table for a moment. She grabbed it in her hand and turned to leave Su Bancheng’s office.

Su Bancheng followed her out, then watched Anya enter the elevator. He smiled and said to Roger, who was standing at the side, “Obviously, she believed it.”

Roger stood respectfully to the side, saying nothing.

“Any news from Sun Qinya? What did the surveillance team say? Did Xiao Jingnan contact her?”

“Not yet.”

“Report to me immediately if anything happens.”

“Understood.”

After Su Bancheng finished speaking, he nodded and walked into his office, closing the door. Xiao Jingnan was very strong, but not enough to make Su Bancheng afraid. If Xiao Jingnan was trying to kill Su Meng, who had killed his brother, even Su Bancheng couldn’t be sure. If anything were to happen to Su Meng, Su Bancheng had no doubt that the elders in his family would strip him of his “Natural Dao Child”.

In the old factory community, after Xu Bai finished his dinner, he washed the dishes in the kitchen. Compared to eating at home, he preferred the canteen at the branch office. It wasn’t so much about taste as it was about having to clean up. But the neighbors were too enthusiastic about cooking. It would be a waste of their effort to let the food stay in the refrigerator until it went bad. Despite packing food to work, he still had too much for himself being the only one at home.

The doorbell rang.

“Here we go.”

Xu Bai took a towel and wiped his hands. Then, he walked to the door and opened it.

The first thing he saw was…Wang Qiang.

“Brother Bai.”

“Is something wrong?”

“Yes.”

“Come in.”

Xu Bai opened the door and let Wang Qiang in. Entering the room, Wang Qiang looked at Xu Bai.

“Brother Bai, there’s a line…”

“Shh.”

Xu Bai stretched out his finger and made a shushing gesture. Then, he walked to the bedroom. When he came out again, he held a signal jammer in the form of a fountain pen in his hand. He turned it on. Xu Bai placed the activated signal jammer on the coffee table. Then, he looked up at Wang Qiang.

“Shoot.”

“We have a lead on Xiao Jingnan.”

“…”

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows. “That’s fast. Where were you?”

Wang Qiang quickly said, “It’s not really a clue about Xiao Jingnan, but I found someone who might be related to Xiao Jingnan. Her name is Sun Qinya, and she’s the lady boss of the Night Rose nightclub on Peace Avenue in the East District.”

As he spoke, Wang Qiang took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Xu Bai. Xu Bai took the photo and looked at it. The woman in the photo was about 35 years old. She had wavy hair, red lips, and heavy makeup. She was wearing a red dress and had a sexy figure.

Xu Bai put the photo away. He looked up at Wang Qiang and pointed at the sofa, indicating for him to sit down. Then he walked over to the wine cabinet at the side and took out a bottle of bourbon. He poured two glasses and handed a glass to Wang Qiang.

“Here.”

“Thank you, Brother Bai.”

“Sit down.”

Xu Bai looked at Wang Qiang, who took the wine glass with both hands. He smiled helplessly and sat on the sofa. Xu Bai took a sip of the bourbon and looked at Wang Qiang. “How did you find out? Tell me.”

Wang Qiang said, “Brother Bai, do you still remember the skinny kid on the fifth floor of our fourth building? He’s short and skinny. His father killed his mother for cheating on him.”

Xu Bai’s eyebrows twitched. “You don’t have to say such things. Skinny Monkey. I know.”

In the old factory community, there was no one that Xu Bai did not know. Moreover, he did not know if it was natural or given to him by the System. Since he was young, he had had a very good memory.

Wang Qiangshan smiled. “Shou Hou works as a security guard in the Night Rose nightclub and is connected. I released the person you were looking for. Shou Hou heard it and called. He said that Sun Qinya was drunk once and called Xiao Jingnan. He was outside and happened to hear it.”

Xu Bai frowned. “Are you sure this is what I’m looking for?”

Wang Qiang nodded. “That’s what I thought too, but later on, Shou Hou said that Sun Qinya called to ask when Xiao Jingnan would return to Feng City. The male voice on the other end of the phone said that when his brother came, he would go back. Guess what? His brother’s name is also Xiao Jingtian.”

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows. “…”
