Chapter 379 Involvement

Leng Yue said nothing after hearing this, but kept her eyes fixed on the TV screen, as if she had discovered something.

Seeing Leng Yue staring at the TV screen in a daze, Xia Xia Qi stretched out a hand and waved it in front of Leng Yue:

"Hello? It's not SpongeBob. Are you so engrossed in watching it?"

"Look into this jumping incident."

Leng Yue took away Xia Qi's hand that was dangling in front of her and said suddenly.

"Why, do you suspect that this incident is a supernatural incident?"

"I know the director of Happy Kindergarten."

After a brief silence, Leng Yue explained the reason why Xia Qi investigated.

"You said you know the man who jumped from the building? Have you been to Bei'an before?"

"I haven't been here before, but she knows my master. I remember seeing her once."

"Okay, but haven't you and your master always lived in the mountains and forests? How can you still have friends?"

"Master always goes out, but I am the only one who stays at the Taoist temple all year round."

Leng Yue glanced at Xia Qi unhappily, and Xia Qi hurriedly changed the subject and said:

"Okay, let's leave it to the police to investigate and collect evidence tonight, and tomorrow we'll go to the police station to find out what happened."

Leng Yue was interested in this incident, but Xia Qi didn't find it troublesome to investigate. Speaking of this Happy Kindergarten, he seemed to have heard someone mention it, but he didn't have a deep impression. He thought about it for a long time and didn't think of it.

Early the next morning, when Xia Qi was still drowsy, he heard his cell phone ringing.

He picked up the phone from the pillow with some discomfort. When he saw the caller on it, he immediately became energetic:

"Hey, Dad, why are you calling me so early? Did something happen at home?"

Xia Qi's father rarely calls him. Unless he hasn't contacted his family for a long time, his father will call him specifically to ask him what he has been busy with recently. As for the frequent calls, he will definitely not. It will take more than 5 minutes.

And like now, calling him early in the morning has never happened since he was a child, so Xia Qi thought that something happened at home.

"Nothing happened at home, but something happened to a relative of ours. She is your grandfather's sister. She is not at home now. If your company is not busy recently, come back and follow me to attend her funeral."

"Grandpa's sister? Auntie? Why didn't I know there was such a person?"

"Your aunt rarely interacts with our family. When she was alive, she had a misunderstanding with your grandfather and opened a kindergarten. You went to school there when you were a child. You should have an impression."

"Happy Kindergarten?"

"Well, that's the name. Almost 20 years have passed in a flash."

Hearing his father talk about this matter, Xia Qi suddenly understood. No wonder he felt that the name Kaixin Kindergarten was familiar to him, because he went to school there when he was a child. However, Kaixin Kindergarten was not located in the Jianshu office building at that time. It's near Xuefu Street.

As for the director, it had been too long, so he didn't have much impression in his mind. He only vaguely remembered that she was a very kind woman.

"Okay, I happen to have nothing to do recently, so I'm going to go back."

Xia Qi did not tell his father that he was still in Bei'an, and his father did not ask any more questions. After confirming that he was back, he hung up the phone.

Putting his cell phone on the bed, Xia Qi rubbed his eyes and was completely sleepless. It had to be said that this incident happened at such a coincidence. He and Leng Yue decided to stay last night to investigate the jumping off building. incident, he received a call from his father early this morning, saying that the dead director turned out to be his aunt.

But having said that, even though the person who died was his aunt, he didn't feel much in his heart. After all, they used to be like strangers and rarely interacted with each other.

But from the fact that his father specifically called him to ask him to come back, it is not difficult to see that this dead aunt still has a very important position in his father's heart.

"What a coincidence."

Xia Tian Qi muttered to himself and saw Leng Yue, who was sleeping on the bed opposite him, sitting up at this time and asked him doubtfully:

"What a coincidence?"

"That jumping incident you wanted to investigate last night. The director who died was a relative of mine. If you call her, I have to call her aunt. My dad just called me and asked me to come back and participate in that incident if nothing happens. A human funeral.”

After Xia Qi finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile. Apparently he felt that this had changed from helping Leng Yue to a matter of his own family.

After hearing this, Leng Yue didn't say anything more and just got off the bed. It seemed that she didn't intend to sleep anymore.

After the two of them washed up and came out of the hotel, Xia Qi drove Leng Yue to the morning market in Beigang District.

Because Bei'an is a small city, there aren't many tourist attractions. The only thing I can try with my friends is the snacks at the morning market.

The morning market is a small market that sells everything. In summer, when Qi goes to school, he always wakes up early on a few days and comes here to have some breakfast.

Xia Qi didn't know what Leng Yue was willing to eat, so he directly found a breakfast stall and sat down.

"Fried dough sticks, soy milk, tofu curd? Let's see what you want?" As soon as they sat down, the stall owner came over with a smile.

"Three fried dough sticks and a bowl of soy milk with sugar."

After speaking to the stall owner, Xia Xia Qi looked at Leng Yue and said:

"what did you eat?"

"Four fried dough sticks." Leng Yue thought for a while and said.

"You just eat fried dough sticks?"

"Um."

"Okay, then get him four fried dough sticks."

Xia Qi did not persuade Lengyue to have a bowl of soy milk or tofu. After all, their living habits were different. Just like when he was in college, every time he and Cao Jinhai went to dinner, Cao Jinhai would choose the staple food. Steamed buns, flower rolls and other pasta dishes, I never eat rice. But he is just the opposite. If there is no rice, no matter how good the food here is, he will not eat it.

The boss brought the fried dough sticks and soy milk, and Xia Qi started eating regardless of Leng Yue. Leng Yue took a tentative bite, and then Xia Qi showed a somewhat amused look of satisfaction, nodded to him and said:

“It tastes pretty good.”

A satisfying breakfast was quickly finished. Xia Qi and Leng Yue then strolled around the morning market. During this period, Leng Yue found a bookstall selling junk books and asked the boss to find many books on Feng Shui.

But he just looked at it without buying it, as if he hadn't found a book that satisfied him.

Leaving the bookstall and walking towards where the car was parked, Xia Xia Qi couldn't help but ask Leng Yue:

"Is it possible to find magic secrets in such a shabby bookstall?"

"Maybe." Leng Yue also shook her head as if she didn't understand, which also made Xia Qi somewhat speechless.
