Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife

Chapter 507: Chapter 507: Business Card!

When Chen Xiao recalled the past, he didn’t hurry to share it with Lin Xi and Zhang Xian.

He moved aside and dialed Luo Dali’s number.

He wanted Luo Dali to help enrich that memory together.

The call was answered immediately.

Luo Dali asked with a tone full of surprise, "Is that Brother Chen?"

"It’s me."

"You’re out now?"

"Yeah, there’s something I want to reminisce about with you. Do you remember our trip to Xiangdu last year?"

Chen Xiao had been to Xiangdu.

But due to living another life, he barely had any impression of his last trip to Xiangdu.

However, Luo Dali immediately said:

"Of course, I remember. Back then, we were thinking about making money, but I got carried away and spent all the money. That damn place, truly a gold-draining pit!"

Hearing this, Chen Xiao knew that Ye Xiu shouldn’t be around.

"Do you remember we met a big boss back then?"

Many people around Chen Xiao knew what Zuo Shu looked like.

Only Luo Dali didn’t know him.

But Luo Dali didn’t have a bad memory, as he also said without recalling:

"Of course, I remember. Damn... that luxury car, that slicked-back hair, the aura made us both envious. But who could’ve thought that only one year later, we aren’t any worse than them... haha!"

"Yeah, so it is indeed him who died."

Chen Xiao said softly, and Luo Dali paused, "Brother Chen, what do you mean by that? What do you mean he died?"

"The deceased in the case that led to my arrest is the big boss we met in Xiangdu last year. His name is Zuo Shu, and he’s the boss of a real estate company."

"What? It’s him!"

Luo Dali’s tone was full of disbelief. After Chen Xiao said again, Luo Dali said puzzledly:

"But Brother Chen, if it was him, why didn’t you say anything back then?"

"I forgot about him. You know how many things have happened around me this year. Memories are selective, so things that aren’t profound can slip away."

Luo Dali somewhat understood but also knew that remembering that person wasn’t important, what mattered was that the person was now dead.

"So, bro, are we now talking about when we met last year?"

"Pretty much, my memory isn’t deep, so I called you to ask, what was the situation back then?"

Chen Xiao asked, and after Luo Dali recalled for a moment, he said:

"That time, both of us did have the intention to earn money. We went to see construction sites, shoe and clothing factories, and met some bosses to discuss cooperation."

"But damn it, later you don’t remember? We were scammed clean, like two big fools!"

Listening to Luo Dali, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but show a bitter smile:

"Indeed, we were quite foolish then, but how did we end up meeting him? In my memory, we seemed quite depressed at that time."

"How could we not be depressed? We didn’t even have the fare to go back. We were just staring at the sky in the park, sharing even a box meal."

"It was after we shared that meal, the big boss appeared. He got out of a luxury car, and the first thing he did was toss me a pack of cigarettes."

"Then he sat beside us and chatted with us, asking where we came from, what we were doing, if we’d encountered any setbacks."

"Bro, you might really not remember anything now, but after chatting with him, I cried. Really, at that moment, I thought of him as my guiding light. He even gave each of us a name card. But the card only had a phone number, no name."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao asked:

"Do you still have that card?"

"I kept it until before going home, but... later, I went for a massage... that crazy lady thought the card was fun and grabbed it, then accidentally let it fly out the window."

Chen Xiao was stunned, "It flew away?"

"Yeah, that crazy lady insisted on looking at it and said she would call because I was bragging to her. But unexpectedly, she played a trick, and when I tried to snatch it back, she ran to the bed, and a sudden gust of wind blew the card away."

Chen Xiao was momentarily speechless.

In his mind, the words "destiny" even popped up.

"Brother Chen, when did your card get lost?" Luo Dali also curiously asked.

Chen Xiao bitterly smiled, "I can’t even remember the person, let alone where I put that card."

"True, but life’s really unpredictable. I thought meeting that person was finding a guiding light, but who would’ve thought he’s gone now, and your connection is so deep!"

"Let’s leave it at that, if you remember anything, remember to contact me."

Since Luo Dali didn’t provide particularly useful information either, Chen Xiao hung up the phone and then walked over to Lin Xi.

"Honey, do you remember me bringing back a name card after returning from Xiangdu last year?"

Chen Xiao usually doesn’t manage things.

Most of the time, he even has to ask Lin Xi to find his change of clothes.

Hearing him ask this, Lin Xi also tried hard to recall.

To enhance her memory, Chen Xiao repeated what Luo Dali had said.

This immediately triggered Lin Xi’s memory: "Now that you mention it, I do recall you telling me about a big boss, and indeed handed me a name card, saying we might need to contact him in the future."

Seeing Lin Xi say this, Chen Xiao’s eyes also revealed a look of surprise.

He didn’t know why he was so excited about that name card.

He only knew that if Zuo Shu had given out the name card of the Li Hai Group’s president, it would certainly have a name and title!

But Luo Dali said that the card only had a number, what does that imply?

It implies that the card Zuo Shu provided could lead to discovering his second identity!

Lin Xi didn’t take long to think, and then said:

"Because you said we might need to contact the person on the card in the future, I kept it. I’ll look for it at home! I should still be able to find it!"

Lin Xi seemed to remember where it was.

It’s just that it’s been a while, so she wasn’t quite sure.

Chen Xiao didn’t rush, "Alright, go look at our place, and if you find it, call me. Remember to stay safe and don’t hurry."

"Got it," Lin Xi said as she left the detective branch.

Once she left, Zhang Xian said, "Shall we meet Qi Wei? The female hair found at the crime scene is likely hers, so we’ve already summoned her."

"Okay," Chen Xiao nodded.

However, Zhang Xian seemed suddenly puzzled and asked:

"By the way, the Xiaoji Knife Man seemed anxious, he almost argued with me when I summoned Qi Wei."

Chen Xiao was first stunned, then bitterly smiled, "You don’t understand the Knife Man, it’s just his unique personality, you’ll get used to it after a while!"
