Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The volume of the conversation on the other end of the cell phone immediately decreased. Huo Qi frowned a bit unhappily. After sighing slightly, he still forced himself to calm down and waited patiently for a while.
He also knew that Smith must be with that person at this time, and the person he didn’t want to see the most right now was that person!
Looking at the sky that was gradually darkening above his head, Huo Qi’s expression became even more gloomy.
Fortunately, not long after, Smith’s voice sounded again. “Huo Qi, are you still listening?”
Huo Qi nodded softly and replied, “Continue.”
Smith looked at the closed door behind him and sighed slightly. He added, “Your mother suddenly asked me to do something just then, so I walked away for a while. Don’t be angry…”
“Other than Su Rui, I don’t care about anything else right now,” Huo Qi said, interrupting Smith’s explanation.
Hearing the silence on the other end, he said coldly, “Continue.”
Smith sighed and complained about Huo Qi’s unreasonableness in his mind, but he still told him honestly, “I think the strangest person among them is Su Rui’s assistant, Xu Bin. This afternoon, when the Yinshan Team was in a friendly match, he announced to the public that Su Rui was sick today, so he had been resting in the hotel. He used this to brush off many people who came to look for Su Rui. In fact, my subordinates didn’t find the surveillance video of Su Rui returning to the hotel last night, So, Su Rui hasn’t appeared in front of people for nearly ten hours. Isn’t the sudden disappearance of the finalist a bit too unusual for the world’s top racing competitions? Not to mention a super popular contestant like Su Rui! The other party’s goal is too obvious and his movements are too arrogant. Ordinary people don’t dare to think about such an unscrupulous cheap trick, but I don’t like it!”
Smith didn’t hear Huo Qi talk, so he asked curiously, “So, Huo Qi, do you understand what I mean?”
Huo Qi certainly wasn’t silent on purpose. He was just a bit shocked. After thinking for a while, he replied, “So, what you’re saying is that Su Rui’s strange disappearance has a lot to do with his assistant. Do you think there’s something wrong with Xu Bin?”
Smith nodded and then realized that Huo Qi couldn’t see his movements. He quickly replied, “Yes! This time, Su Rui’s Yinshan Alliance and the local racing team in Modu, Lanbao, are both popular candidates for the championship of the international racing competition. And those people have always been very unlucky. Su Rui is most likely trapped by those people. This isn’t the first time something like this has happened in Modu. We’re all used to it!”
As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something and continued to ask, “What’s your relationship with Su Rui? Why are you so concerned about him? I was actually surprised when I received your call this afternoon. When your subordinates came to look for me this afternoon, I also cooperated with them with all my might! Huo Qi, I’m really happy that you remembered to ask for my help! Your mother has also been …” Missing you! You’re already in Country F now. You can come and see her when you want!
Before Smith could continue, Huo Qi interrupted him in a deep voice, “Thank you for your help this time. I’ll think of a way to return your favor in the future!”
Huo Qi said and wanted to hang up, but Smith stopped him again!
Smith’s anxious voice came from the speaker of the cell phone. “Wait, Huo Qi! Don’t hang up on me first. I still have something to ask you. You haven’t answered my question just now! About Su Rui!”
Huo Qi was very helpless and frustrated, but he thought that the other party had done him a favor today, so he endured his frustration and explained simply, “Su Rui is my wife’s second brother.. It should be normal for me to be concerned about his safety, right?”
