After Li Chonglou got the other party's son's name from Zhou Tong, he called Li Meixia.
"How long will it take to find out? I'm a bit in a hurry."
"About half a day."
Although she said half a day, it only took about three hours for Li Meixia to give a reply.
The old woman's husband's surname was Fu, and her son was named Fu Shang. He was only in his early thirties. Having been mixed up with people from the underworld since he was young, he was not well-educated, lacked cultural literacy, and was not particularly honest.
In fact, before his incident, he had already been warned several times for stealing things from the factory. He was sent back to reflect as per regulations during this leave, but unfortunately, he broke a leg and that led to the current situation.
And in the intelligence provided by Li Meixia, this person was hiding in a rental house.
"He broke a leg and is hiding somewhere instead of staying in the hospital. Who would believe there's no funny business going on!"
Zhou Tong's face immediately darkened upon hearing this news, while Hu Han's focus was on Li Chonglou's ability.
Although three hours was a bit long for a tea break, it was too fast to gather information on a person!
He was skilled in combat, wealthy, well-connected, and what else did Senior Li not have?
Hu Han looked at Li Chonglou with deep respect.
However, Li Chonglou, unfazed by Hu Han's demeanor, calmly said, "This is to be expected. The most crucial thing now is to appease the person. As long as his son can be persuaded, the old woman will naturally withdraw."
Li Chonglou stood up as he spoke, but suddenly heard Hu Han ask.
"Senior Li, can you help me find out who is behind this?"
Li Chonglou was taken aback. After pondering for a while, he replied.
"I'll keep an eye out, but whether I can find out is another matter."
Hu Han, surprisingly, didn't seem very disappointed and simply responded with an "Oh."
In fact, he had just asked casually. Hu Han understood that as long as they could resolve the current crisis, the person behind it would eventually reveal themselves, even without an investigation.
Therefore, investigating the person behind it was not urgent. Their priority was to resolve the immediate issue.
What he didn't know was that if the Green Gang really wanted to investigate, it wouldn't be difficult. However, doing so would mean owing someone even more.
After all, for a force like the Green Gang, which had a comprehensive network everywhere, finding information about a person was just a matter of a simple inquiry. But digging into the forces behind someone was not that simple.
Thus, Li Chonglou planned to investigate himself. This way, he would owe the Green Gang less. Although Li Meixia hadn't made any demands yet, debts of this kind had to be repaid sooner or later; it was just a matter of when.
With no objections from anyone, Li Chonglou said goodbye and left the factory.
This time, he had called Gao Baisong over.
It was a coincidence. He had initially just wanted to ask Gao Baisong if he had anyone from his team nearby. However, as soon as he connected the call, he found out that Gao Baisong was not far from the factory entrance.
After getting into the car, just as Li Chonglou stated the address, he heard Gao Baisong's deep voice.
"Mr. Li, I've thought about it. As long as you can help me with one thing, I can bring my team to join your company at any time!"
Li Chonglou's face lit up with joy. After witnessing the driving skills of "Lao Er," he had already considered Gao Baisong's team as his own. So he immediately asked.
"What is it? I'll help you with anything I can!"
The car had already started smoothly. Gao Baisong drove with focus and said in a deep voice.
"Do you remember Lao Er who drove for you last time? I want you to save his life."
Li Chonglou's brows immediately furrowed, and he quickly asked, "What do you mean by that? He seemed fine when I saw him last time!"
"Heh, do you think a normal person would risk their career for a casual promise? People like us who have been driving for decades, how can we not understand the consequences of speeding and running red lights."
Li Chonglou's expression faltered. He then realized that Lao Er had indeed agreed too readily back then. After all, he hadn't even hired him as an employee of his company yet; they had only met once.
As Gao Baisong said, how could such a normal person gamble with his career based on a single encounter?
After realizing this, Li Chonglou couldn't help but ask directly, "So what happened to him?"
Gao Baisong sighed deeply, "If it weren't for us brothers sticking by him, this guy would have probably given up and committed suicide long ago."
After sighing, Gao Baisong explained the reason for Lao Er's abnormal behavior.
It turned out that Lao Er was divorced and had a son, whom he had raised alone over the years. However, perhaps due to being busy with work, his son had gotten involved with people from the underworld at some point.
Initially, Lao Er was furious and beat him several times, but it had the opposite effect. His son ran away from home and had been missing for more than half a year.
Just a few days ago, he suddenly received news about his son, which came from the police station.
"Lao Er hated criminals the most, but he never expected his own son to be convicted as a rapist. After receiving this notification, Lao Er broke down. Fortunately, I was with him at the time."
As Gao Baisong said this, Li Chonglou, sitting in the passenger seat, could clearly see a flicker of relief on his face. It was obvious that if he hadn't been by his side, Lao Er might have done something irreversible.
But then Gao Baisong's expression turned sorrowful again.
"Although we managed to persuade him through the most difficult times, I have a feeling that Lao Er is still harboring suicidal thoughts."
Hearing Gao Baisong's words, Li Chonglou finally understood what he meant, but his brow couldn't help but furrow.
"You mean you want me to persuade him back?"
If that was the case, Li Chonglou could only say he was powerless. After all, he had only met Lao Er twice. If even his brothers of decades couldn't resolve his inner turmoil, how could an outsider like him possibly do so?
Fortunately, that wasn't what Gao Baisong was asking. Hearing Li Chonglou's misunderstanding, Gao Baisong quickly explained.
"Of course, I'm not asking you to directly persuade him back; we can't do that. What I need your help with is to investigate matters concerning his son."
