Chapter Fifty-Seven: Finding a Needle in a Haystack

He Dan's question made me confused. I really don't know why Lu Xiaoqian didn't come to work. I just called him, but no one answered it.

I suddenly felt a very bad feeling in my heart.

I shook my head at He Dan: "Do you know?"

"Brother Xiang, I don't know if I should say it."

He Dan's face wrinkled and looked very entangled.

The more He Dan did this, the more uneasy I felt in my heart. I hurriedly urged He Dan to ask what was going on.

After I asked for a long time, He Dan said: "Last night, Lu Xiaoqian sent me home. Some people suddenly rushed out halfway. They came up and said nothing. They pressed Lu Xiaoqian to the ground and started hitting him. I also saw someone holding such a long knife and chopping him."

He Dan said while gesturing the length of the knife to me.

I didn't expect that Lu Xiaoqian didn't come to work because he was beaten, and he thought that something was wrong at home was asking for leave.

When I heard that Lu Xiaoqian was beaten, I felt anxious. Looking at He Dan, who was still biting his lips, I couldn't help but feel a little angry.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? It's been delayed until now?"

I questioned He Dan,

"No, actually I've wanted to tell you a long time ago, but Lu Xiaoqian told me not to tell you, I..."

Seeing He Dan like this, I guessed what was going on and reached out to stop He Dan who was about to continue talking.

Without saying anything, I took out my cell phone and started calling Lu Xiaoqian, but after several calls in a row, no one answered. I was even more anxious and worried about him and didn't know how he was doing now.

I asked about the address of Lu Xiaoqian's family from He Dan and was about to go to his house to check it out.

Looking at the crowded bar lobby, I thought of what if something happens if I go out like this.

At this time, I happened to see Zhang Yun walking towards the bar. I quickly called Zhang Yun and asked him to help me see the bar first. If there was anything, I would call me.

Zhang Yun and I have a good relationship, they are relatively reliable and stable. I saw that he was not the kind of fence-bearing man, so I took him as my younger brother. There shouldn’t be any trouble when he is in the bar. Moreover, I saw that Lu Xiaoqian’s home is not very far from here, so I should be able to come back soon.

After briefly explaining to Zhang Yun, I ran out of the bar. Since my second-hand bicycle was stolen from the wheel of the car last time, it has been in a corner of the bar and has not taken time to repair it.

Without transportation tools, it is very inconvenient to go back and forth. Once again, I made up my mind that I must cut off two pieces of meat and buy two wheels tomorrow.

While walking towards Lu Xiaoqian's family, I recalled the appearance of the people described by He Dan, and felt a sense of familiarity. I had never thought about it before. Now I suddenly realized that those people were probably Chen Dong. Last time he brought someone to beat me, but Lu Xiaoqian and I beat him up together.

I had already forgotten this matter, but I didn't expect that Chen Dong was still thinking about it.

Thinking that Lu Xiaoqian was implicated because of me, I felt even more guilty.

Lu Xiaoqian lives not far away. I found his house after leaving the bar for more than ten minutes.

I carried the fruit I bought on the roadside and knocked on the door of Lu Xiaoqian's house.

I stood at the door and knocked on the door for a long time, but no one came to open it for me. I thought to myself that Lu Xiaoqian might not be at home, but his phone could not be reached and the person was not at home. I was even more worried about him. I don’t know where he is now and how it is.

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, the door opened inside. I happened to see Lu Xiaoqian, who was bruised and swollen, lying in the crack of the door, lying out his head and looking out.

"Lu Xiaoqian?"

I shouted at Lu Xiaoqian.

After seeing me, Lu Xiaoqian was stunned for a moment, but soon realized and quickly pulled me into his house.

This is a very dilapidated residential building, and it is estimated that it will be demolished soon. Lu Xiaoqian's home is quite simple, and he is the only one.

Looking at Lu Xiaoqian with a bruised nose and a swollen face in disbelief, the degree of injury he was much worse than I thought. Not only was his face so blue and purple that he was swollen, but when Lu Xiaoqian turned around, I also saw Lu Xiaoqian being wrapped in bandages behind him.

I asked him what was wrong with his back, but he stammered and didn't say it. Without Lu Xiaoqian's words, I also knew that it was cut by a knife.

Looking at the scars on his face, my nose was slightly sour. I patted Lu Xiaoqian on the shoulder and asked him: "Do you still remember the group of people who hit you? Do you know what they do?"

"Brother Xiang, let's just let this happen."

Lu Xiaoqian shook his head and didn't want to tell me.

"How can that be? They beat my brother. You can't just forget about this."

My pupils shrank and my body was filled with anger.

Lu Xiaoqian knew my temperament, so he looked at me helplessly and said, "It must be He Dan told you."

His words were very calm, and there was no doubt at all, but more like a statement.

I knew Lu Xiaoqian already knew, so I didn't say anything and nodded at Lu Xiaoqian.

In the end, Lu Xiaoqian couldn't stand me, so he had to tell me in detail about the situation at that time.

After get off work last night, Lu Xiaoqian went to take He Dan home to do something, but suddenly rushed over halfway through five or six men. Liuli was so angry that he was not a good person. His first reaction was to run, but because He Dan was wearing seven-inch-high slim heels, he was surrounded by the group of people before he could run out.

After surrounding them, the group of people beat him up with sticks, with no room for resistance, and could only accept them as they beat him. After the fight, a man took out a knife and slashed Lu Xiaoqian's back twice, and quickly dispersed and ran away after seeing the blood.

Lu Xiaoqian said that he was beaten to the point of being confused. If He Dan hadn't been there, he might have been on the street.

It was already this time, and he was still thinking about He Dan. I couldn't help but tell him that if it weren't for He Dan, he might have run away long ago and wouldn't have been beaten at all.

"If it were you and Mieko at that time, would you leave Mieko and run away alone?"

Lu Xiaoqian's words made me speechless.

I scratched my scalp and realized my tact and bypassed this topic.

"By the way, who do you recognize the person who hits you?"

I want to see if I guess it is right, and whether it is Chen Dong and the others.

Lu Xiaoqian looked at me and shook his head: "I only saw two or three of those people clearly. I don't know them, nor have I seen them before."

I asked if it was Chen Dong's person, and Lu Xiaoqian shook his head and said that he had not seen Chen Dong.

I lowered my head and thought that this time the matter was difficult. Now I don’t know who was hitting Lu Xiaoqian. Looking for those five or six people in the vast crowd was simply looking for needles in a haystack, which was too difficult.
