Chapter 1681 The Young Man at the Door
"You just need to persuade the child more when the time comes."
The old police officer was not optimistic about this trip.
He had almost anticipated that they would return empty-handed.
"Ah."
The white-collar woman nodded, "I know."
"I'll talk to the kid."
Maybe the time is still too short, it will be better if it is longer.
And the child’s father is already looking for a similar parrot.
With a new pet, the child will be able to get over the sadness of the previous pet leaving more quickly, right?
The little girl led the way in front, looking very familiar with the route.
After all, she had been to this place many times.
"that is-"
The little girl's voice stopped abruptly.
Soon, the female police officer and others found out why the little girl suddenly stopped talking.
There was a person standing in front of the door that the little girl was looking at.
A young man, probably around twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
The young man, who didn't pay attention to the footsteps at first, noticed something was wrong.
The footsteps stopped.
There were no other sounds.
Is it the people from the house across the street who have returned?
The young man guessed.
But for some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable.
He turned his head.
The next second, he met many pairs of eyes.
He was startled.
My right foot couldn't help but take a step back.
Then he came to his senses and wondered if he had overreacted.
He looked a little embarrassed.
Do you feel embarrassed?
But anyone would be shocked if they turned around and suddenly saw so many people, right?
I wonder if his face is blushing now?
Hopefully these people didn't notice his embarrassment.
"Hello."
The female police officer smiled and spoke.
The young man was startled again.
police?
His eyes flickered back and forth between the female police officer and the old police officer.
The police uniforms on the other party clearly proved their identities.
He didn't know why he didn't see them the first time.
".Hello."
The young man said with a bit of restraint.
He originally thought that the arrival of this group of people had nothing to do with him.
But the looks they cast upon him were too present.
Obviously, this group of people came for him.
He was puzzled.
After searching his memory carefully, he confirmed again that he did not know this group of people.
A policeman and a child
Once he has seen someone with such obvious features, he will not forget him.
So, "Excuse me. What can I do for you?"
Could it be that he had committed some crime and the police were here to arrest him?
He grinned.
This joke is not funny at all.
"This gentleman."
Seeing the young man's nervousness, the female police officer's expression softened. "Excuse me, do you know the owner of this house?"
“This family.”
The young man subconsciously turned his head to look at the door behind him.
"this home?"
He pointed at the door he had been knocking on for a long time, "Brother Li?"
"Yes."
The female police officer nodded. She knew the owner's surname was Li. "Are you friends?"
The young man didn't know whether he should shake his head or nod.
“I am a colleague in his company.”
The young man smiled bitterly.
I decided to explain my identity in detail.
"We're in an office."
"He is a senior."
"I'm a newcomer to the company."
"This time, the leader asked me to come and see him."
Without waiting for the female police officer to ask, the young man consciously explained the reason why he was here, "Brother Li has not come to the company for several days."
“And there was no explanation.”
"No leave application was submitted, and not even a message was sent to the leader."
"He just stopped coming to work all of a sudden." "We sent him messages but he didn't reply, and he didn't answer our calls."
"I don't know what happened."
"My boss asked me to come and see Brother Li."
"Let's find out the situation."
"I'm really not feeling well, so I have some excuse for being absent from work."
"But I just knocked on the door for a long time."
"Nothing happened."
"I don't know what the situation is."
The young man looked confused.
"Are you here to see Brother Li too?"
The young man looked at the female officer, "What happened to him?"
"The bad uncle took my Fatty!"
The little girl shouted angrily.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
The white-collar woman tapped the little girl's forehead lightly with her finger.
Nothing is certain yet.
She smiled sheepishly at the young man, "Don't take it seriously."
"That's just kid talk."
"I didn't say anything nonsense."
The little girl covered her forehead with her hands, looking aggrieved.
Well.
The young man was stunned. "Excuse me, who is Fatty?"
"It's a parrot."
The white-collar woman explained, "It's a birthday present for our child."
"It disappeared a few days ago."
“We’ve been looking for it everywhere.”
"oh oh."
One doubt was solved, and the young man soon had another one, "Why did you look for Brother Li when your parrot was lost?"
"No."
The young man shook his head. "Why do you think it was Brother Li who took your parrot?"
"Did Brother Li do anything?"
Let them suspect him.
The white-collar woman looked a little embarrassed.
How do I explain this reason?
In fact, she doesn't know either.
It's a child.
"It was the bad uncle who took the fat man!"
The little girl dropped her hand that was covering her forehead and her eyes widened.
The white-collar woman looked increasingly embarrassed.
She smiled helplessly at the young man, "I don't know what's wrong with this kid..."
"It seems that you have determined that Pangpang was taken away by your predecessor."
"That doesn't make sense."
"Today I actually went to the police station to report the case myself."
“We also want our children to give up.”
The young man probably understood.
He didn't ask any further questions.
For example, why would a child think that it was Brother Li who took her parrot?
He was just a colleague of Brother Li who happened to appear here.
Because I just arrived at the company, my relationship with Brother Li is just average.
Brother Li was a quiet person, and he didn't even say a few words to him.
The police have already intervened in this matter, so he shouldn't waste their time.
However, a look of regret appeared on his face, "Brother Li is not at home."
"I just knocked on the door for a long time."
“No one came to open the door.”
"I didn't hear any noise in the house either."
"You may have come here for nothing."
Knowing that the police were looking for Brother Li, the young man no longer felt as nervous as he did at the beginning.
The way he spoke became a little more casual.
He sighed inwardly.
He had made a wasted trip.
It was such a hot day and it took him some effort to find this place.
He is not very sensitive to direction.
I asked a lot of people on the way to find this building.
"Is this it again?"
Seeing the young man looking at her with a puzzled look, the white-collar woman who had just sighed smiled and said, "This is not the first time we have come here."
"We've been here several times in the past few days."
"But every time I come, there's no one in the house."
