Building 78.
Li Jiangnan sneaked carefully, avoiding the cameras at the four corners of the villa, and took advantage of the dark night to climb up to the terrace on the second floor from the back of the villa.
He hid in the dark shadows in the corner in time, released a divine sense, and searched the interior of the building.
In the building, Li Jiangnan's consciousness did not find his father, his half-brother Li Chengping, or Li Chengping's mother, Mrs. Ning.
In the lobby on the first floor, there were two men who looked like bodyguards in black, sitting there playing checkers.
In the study room on the second floor, an old man with the appearance of a butler was cleaning the dust on the bookshelves with a feather duster, while a young maid was wiping the bookcases and desks with a rag.
Apart from these four people, there was no one else in this building. Li Jiangnan was a little confused. It was already very late. Why was none of the owners of this building here?
Dingling, Dingling, at this moment, the phone in the study rang.
When Li Jiangnan heard the phone ring, he focused on it in time and observed it with his spiritual sense.
The old man with the appearance of a housekeeper walked to the desk, picked up the phone and listened for a while, Li Jiangnan's consciousness could vaguely hear a woman's voice on the other end of the phone, as if saying:
"The Li family... old man... have to make preparations... a birthday gift..."
After all, Li Jiangnan's consciousness is not strong enough to fully hear the soft voice coming from the other end of the phone.
However, Li Jiangnan's spiritual sense could clearly observe how the old housekeeper responded.
The old butler seemed to be listening to the master's orders. After listening to the call for a while, he nodded repeatedly and replied respectfully: "Okay, Madam Ning, don't worry, our side will be ready."
"Also, when will you and sir come back?"
"During this time, there have been constant visits from distinguished guests. Some distinguished guests have visited several times and said that they have important matters to discuss with Mr. Li, but..."
The old butler was interrupted by the other end of the phone, so he nodded again and changed his words: "Okay, okay, if those distinguished guests come to visit again, I will tell them according to your original words: Mr. Li's body still needs to be recuperated. I won’t be back for a while, and I haven’t seen any guests.”
After the old butler hung up the phone, he obviously let out a long breath, and then he stood in front of the desk, and he didn't know what he thought of, and shook his head there again.
"Uncle Fu, Mr. Ning and Mrs. Ning have lived in Hongxiu Building for more than a month or two, and they still refuse to come back. This has never been seen before. Why is this?"
The young maid put down the rag and came to the old housekeeper.
"How do I know why? I'm not a roundworm in their stomachs. How do I know so much?" The old housekeeper named Forbe complained, picked up the feather duster, and continued to clean the dust on the bookshelf.
The maid came to the old butler with a rag, and while wiping the bookshelves, she talked to the old butler, saying, "Fu Bo, I don't know if I should say something."
"I always have a feeling that Mr. Li seems to be a different person, a little different from the previous Mr. Li."
Fu Bo glanced at her and asked, "How do you say?"
The maid stopped the rag, opened her eyes earnestly and said: "Do you remember, a few days ago when Mr. Li's throat was uncomfortable, Young Master Li got into trouble outside and came back drunk, and fell down as soon as he entered the door. In the hall, he even smashed the porcelain bottle that Mr. Li liked very much."
"At that time, I was mopping the floor in the living room. I thought it would be unlucky for Young Master Li. Mr. Li would definitely be furious with him. At least he would be locked in the house for ten days and a half months."
"However, I didn't expect that after Mr. Li heard the movement in the living room, he just came out of the study, stood upstairs to take a look, and then went back to the study without asking, and didn't even go downstairs. gone."
The maid opened her eyes and said strangely: "Do you think this is strange? According to the master's temperament, the young master is so drunk that he even broke his porcelain bottle. How can the master not get angry?"
Uncle Fu thought for a while and said, "Maybe Mr. Li didn't want to talk to him when he saw the young master drunk like that."
"Maybe it could be other reasons. In short, the master didn't lose his temper with the young master. It's always a good thing. Don't think about it."
The maid opened her eyes wide and said, "But it's not right. There is one more thing that makes me feel that after the master got sick, he seemed to be a different person."
"Do you remember the master's diary?"
"In the past, as long as he went out, no matter where he went, no matter how long he went, he would never leave his diary behind."
"But in those few days, he wanted to accompany Madam Ning to live in the Hongxiu Building, but when he went out, he forgot to bring his diary. It was only after I saw it in the study that I picked up the diary and ran out in a hurry. Leave it to him."
The maid said anxiously: "Uncle Fu, I suspect that the master's condition is not as simple as the public health doctor announced."
"After the master fell ill, his temperament changed drastically. I doubt it. There is something wrong with the master..." The maid opened her eyes wide and pointed to her head with a serious expression.
The old housekeeper named Uncle Fu was angry and funny after hearing this, and said: "Stop messing around, Mr. Li is in good health, free from illness and disaster, even if he gets a little sick, he will return to normal sooner or later."
"Now I don't allow you to think about it, just do your own thing. By the way, the Hongxiu Building just explained that you have to prepare the birthday gift of the old man of the Li family. You have to take care of this matter." ..."
On the terrace, after Li Jiangnan overheard what the two of them said, he already had some thoughts in his heart.
It seems that the man's physical condition is not good. According to what the young maid said, he fell ill, and then his temperament changed drastically.
According to Su Zhan's views on Mrs. Ning before his death, Li Jiangnan has reason to suspect that Mrs. Ning may have tampered with that man's body to have such a change in temperament.
In addition, Li Jiangnan now understands that it is already unrealistic to secretly contact that man in this building.
That man and Mrs. Ning both lived in the "Red Sleeve Building". As for where the Red Sleeve Building is, Li Jiangnan still has no idea.
Considering that it would be too risky to startle the snake, Li Jiangnan didn't plan to arrest the housekeeper or the maid and press him for the information he wanted.
He planned to investigate this matter secretly, especially since he also knew that the old man of the Li family was celebrating his birthday. Maybe that man would automatically appear on the day when the Li family celebrated his birthday.
