Chapter 45: Your Good Luck in the Southeast Direction

County seat. State-owned restaurant!

Because there was a fairly heavy thunderstorm last night, the road leading to the county seat became a little muddy, and the mule cart was going a little slowly, so Li You came later than ever before.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, Li You saw several people in olive green uniforms walking out of the restaurant.

Upon closer inspection, he suddenly found that the one in the lead was actually Wang Anguo.

Li You was just hesitating whether to say hello or not. After all, he didn't know if Wang Anguo came here to perform official duties, and whether saying hello rashly would affect him.

At this moment, however, Wang Anguo took the initiative to welcome him over, and at the same time said, "Brother Li You, we've been waiting for you for more than an hour!"

"Eh, Team Wang, are you here specifically waiting for me?" Li You said with a smile.

"Um!"

"Then wait a moment, and I'll chat with you after I deliver the goods!"

Before the words were finished, Liu Jingshan on the side said again, "Brother Li You, Captain Wang should be looking for you for something urgent. I'll go weigh it for you, and you guys chat!"

Li You didn't decline either, but just said with a smile, "Brother Liu, there is half a basket of hericium erinaceus inside. Don't weigh it as an ordinary mushroom for me!"

"Don't worry, you won't be at a loss!"

"Hahaha!"

While chatting and laughing, Li You followed Wang Anguo and another public security officer into the restaurant, and then found a relatively quiet place to sit down.

After the three sat down, Wang Anguo looked at Li You and said, "Brother Li You, is what you said that day true?"

"What words?" Li You asked knowingly.

"You said that if we couldn't solve that big trouble, we would come to you!" Wang Anguo said seriously.

Li You didn't answer him, but looked at the other public security officer on the side.

Wang Anguo immediately said, "Let me introduce you. His name is Li Gang. He is my deputy, and also a brother who grew up together. His grandfather is still the most famous anti-Japanese war hero Li Yunfei in our county. You can completely trust him!"

Hearing Wang Anguo say that this young man in front of him was actually the grandson of the old hero Li Yunfei, Li You immediately took a few careful looks at Li Gang. It was similar to the photo he saw in the newspaper, a short-lived ghost!

"Hello, I'm Li Gang. Counting up a few generations, maybe we're still one family!" Li Gang said with a smile.

Li You looked at him and then nodded and said, "It's my honor to be one family with the old hero Li!"

Subsequently, Li You looked at Wang Anguo and said, "I know what you want to ask, your profit is in the southeast!"

"Southeast?"

"Well, believe my words and dig deep in this direction, there must be what you're looking for!"

Having said that, Li You ignored Wang Anguo and got up to go to find Liu Jingshan over there!

And Li Gang suddenly said, "Brother Li You, for the sake of our family, read my face for me!"

Li You looked at him and then said, "You want to calculate?"

"Well!"

"500 yuan!"

"Ah, why didn't it cost money to calculate for him, but it costs money for me to calculate. We're still from the same family?" Li Gang complained.

"Because I took the initiative to calculate for him, but not for you!"

"Is there a difference?"

"Yes!"

"What's the difference?"

"You have to spend money!"

"Spending money is okay, but 500 yuan is really too expensive. Can it be less?"

Li You smiled and said, "I don't want this money now. If you think I calculated it right, it's not too late to give it!" Only some words, don't be unhappy after I say them!"

"No, you say! If it's really calculated correctly, even if I have to sell everything I have, I will send you the divination money!" Li Gang said.

"The sky collapses in the middle, and the Yintang is connected with the center of the eyebrows. The eyes are wandering, the qi is scattered and not gathered, like being drunk or awake and not firm. Plus three whites and four whites, breathing like a pig, at first glance, it's a sign of a short life!"

Then, Li You continued to say, "And your five elements lack water and encounter fire, and the name is also hard. You should know that being too hard is easy to break. So you will die, and it's related to fire!"

Li Gang was stunned, and Wang Anguo was also stunned!

Yesterday he was still joking with Li Gang that if he really let Li You read his face, maybe he would also be told that his Yintang was black and there might be a disaster of bloodshed.

But he didn't expect that Li You would directly say that Li Gang was a sign of a short life, and also said that his death was related to fire!

This statement is really a bit serious. From Li Gang's sullen face now, one can know how bad his mood is.

Li You didn't pay attention to him either and walked towards Liu Jingshan on his own.

He had also reminded what should be reminded. As for whether that kid listened to his words, he couldn't care that much.

After all, the Buddha saves those with affinity, and heals those who are not doomed to die. What he can do is just remind him, that's all!

Looking at Li You who just left like this, Li Gang was both angry and speechless. Isn't fortune-telling just for fun? Say something nice and I'll give you some money when I'm happy.

How come it changed when it came to this kid. He actually pointed at his nose and said he was a short-lived ghost. What kind of thing is this!

If he hadn't promised Wang Anguo not to do anything last night, he really wanted to slap this kid just now!

"You see this kid..."

Before Li Gang could finish speaking, Wang Anguo smiled and said, "Alright, he's just talking. Don't take it to heart. Besides, don't you not believe this anyway?"

"I don't believe it, but it just doesn't feel good to hear it!"

"Don't mention it. I just thought for a moment. The southeast direction is indeed our weak area of contraction..."

Before the words were finished, they heard Li Gang frowning and saying, "You won't really listen to that kid's nonsense, right? In the southeast direction, except for that mining area, there's not even a hair. Moreover, our people searched the mining area on the first day and found nothing!"

"The mining area, yes, it's the mining area!" Wang Anguo suddenly slapped his thigh and said.

"I've also been thinking these days. If I were a human trafficker, where would I hide those children to avoid the search of the public security and armed police. After thinking about it, any open-air place won't work and may be exposed. Only underground will do!"

Then Wang Anguo continued, "But for so many children, an ordinary cellar is definitely not enough. It will suffocate due to lack of oxygen in a short time. Now it seems that it's most suitable to hide people in the mine!"

"According to what you said, a cave would also work!" Li Gang said.

"Hehe, the chance of a cave being exposed is much greater than that of a mine. After all, caves are generally uninhabited and it's not very convenient to purchase food and drink."

Later, Wang Anguo said again, "But it's different for the mine. Relying on the mine, they have sufficient reasons to purchase supplies."

"That's not right either. Wouldn't the workers in the mine find out the problem?" Li Gang said again.

"What if those children were kidnapped by the people in the mine?"

"This... Is this possible?" Li Gang said in disbelief.

"We are the public security. We should have the awareness and courage to make bold assumptions! Let's go back to the team to gather people and immediately conduct a carpet search of those several mines in the southeast direction!" Wang Anguo said in a deep voice.

"Is this necessary?"

"Yes, it is very necessary. I have a premonition that we may have a major discovery this time!"

Saying that, Wang Anguo pulled Li Gang and hurriedly left the state-owned restaurant!
