Lin Yanchen found Chuxun's residence and asked the property management, security, and Chuxun's neighbors about Chuxun's whereabouts.
The property management felt that the owner of this house was really troublesome. Why were there always people looking for him?
Since there was a psychopath who tricked them into his house before, he was much more vigilant this time. At first, he refused to say anything.
This matter was easy to solve. Lin Yanchen gave him a red packet, and the other party slowly opened his mouth and was willing to say a few words, "He came back once before."
Lin Yanchen asked, "What was the date?"
The answer was, "The second or the third day of the New Year. He came back for a day and then left again."
The timing was just right. Lin Yanchen continued to ask, "What happened after that?
Where did he go? "
"I don't know."
The other party answered and suddenly remembered something, "Mr. Chu came back this time to do some paperwork. He said that he was going to sell the house or something. I don't know the details for the time being …"
Lin Yanchen's heart sank. Selling the house … Why would he sell the house out of the blue? Was he preparing for his funeral?
Along the way, he was able to confirm that Chu Yongsheng was seriously ill.
Lin Yanchen thought for a while. With Chuxun's character, he would most likely buy his own grave in advance.
He was not sure if Chuxun would go back to find his parents. Chuxun said that he had cut off his relationship with his parents for five years. Would he still go back?
But if he did not look for his parents, he should at least find someone to help him deal with his funeral.
Generally, if it was not his parents or friends, would Chuxun ask his female disciple to help him?
But he heard that there were also strangers who were in charge of this job.
In short, it was better to check it out.
Lin Yanchen found a few assistants to help him check, but he really could not sit comfortably and wait for others to report the news. Every day, he had to run around looking for Chuxun. He was so tired that he fell asleep. This was the only way for him to sleep recently.
In Chuxun's high school and university teachers, Lin Yanchen saw the class photos of Chuxun when he was in school.
Chuxun always stood quietly in the corner. Lin Yanchen liked him when he saw him. But he found that there was another man in both photos, and they were both standing next to Chuxun. Even in the high school graduation photo, the man's hand was on Chuxun's shoulder. Chuxun had a smile on his face and his eyes were shining.
Lin Yanchen asked, "Who is this person?"
Chuxun's high school teacher told him, "Oh, he's Chuxun's good friend. His name is … Let me see. There's a name on the back of the photo.
Ji Tianze. Yes, his name is Ji Tianze.
They were very close when they were in school. If I remember correctly, they even went to the same university. "
Lin Yanchen thought that if he was not wrong, this man should be the person Chuxun liked.
He … he was still a little jealous.
But now was not the time for him to care about this man with the surname Ji. Lin Yanchen silently noted down the name.
Fortunately, Chuxun's high school records had his home address. Moreover, after so many years, Chuxun's parents did not move and still lived in the old house.
Unfortunately, Chuxun's parents were not at home.
Lin Yanchen directly asked Chuxun's neighbors where the family went.
A group of aunties moved a small stool and sat under a tree in the neighborhood garden to chat. Lin Yanchen started a conversation and they unknowingly told him all the gossip.
"A few days after the New Year, Old Chu's son came back."
"Yes, yes, I saw him. He drove a BMW. His son was good at school and had a promising career, unlike my disappointing son …"
"What's there to be envious about?
Didn't you see that he hasn't been home for a few years?
He had a falling out with his family a few years ago … I heard that he's gay. "
"Ah?
I didn't know … "
"I live next door and only found out when I heard them arguing. Old Chu is such a proud person, so I didn't tell him."
"Then why are you telling us now?"
"Old Chu quit his job at the university and put his house up for sale."
"Eh?
Why is he selling his house? "
"Let me tell you … I heard that his son is sick and won't live for long. In order to treat his illness, the old couple is going to sell their house.
They took him to see a doctor, but he probably went straight to the hospital for treatment, so he didn't come back. "
"Aiyo, that's terrible.
What kind of illness does he have?
Why does it cost so much money? "
"I'm not too sure, but … isn't it easy for gay people to get that kind of illness?"
"What kind?"
"It's …" She lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "AIDS."
There was a low uproar. This was really dirty.
"This illness can't be cured."
Lin Yanchen couldn't stand it anymore. "Chuxun doesn't have AIDS!
He's a clean person. Why does he feel that just because he likes men … "
The aunties finally noticed him. "Young man, I remember that you were here to ask about Chuxun, right?
What's your relationship with him? "
Everyone silently distanced themselves from him, as if he had some kind of infectious disease.
Lin Yanchen thought that Chuxun used to live in such an environment. No wonder he was so unhappy.
He felt sorry for Chuxun.
Lin Yanchen got Chuxun's father's phone number. He mustered up his courage and called, "Hello?
Hello. "
Papa Chu saw that it was an unfamiliar number and asked, "Who are you?"
Lin Yanchen said, "Hello … I'm Chuxun's friend. I heard that he's sick and want to visit him. Can you tell me which hospital he's in now?"
Papa Chu was very afraid of this matter. Chuxun was thin-skinned and specifically told him not to let more people know about his pregnancy. No matter who asked, he was to say that he wasn't sick.
He naturally had to keep his mouth shut, let alone tell others Chuxun's location. He said, "I didn't even know that he was sick. How did you know that he was sick?
Is Chuxun sick? "
Papa Chu said with certainty. They didn't even know that Chuxun was sick?
Lin Yanchen was frightened. "But I heard that you took Chuxun to see a doctor … Why else would you go on a long trip?"
Papa Chu said, "My wife and I went on a trip. What does that have to do with you?"
Lin Yanchen asked, "But you sold your house?"
Papa Chu said, "I just want to move to the countryside to retire. Are you crazy?
Why are you suddenly cursing my son for no reason? "
Lin Yanchen said in a panic, "I didn't …"
Papa Chu hung up, and Lin Yanchen heard the annoying empty ringtone.
When he called again, he realized that he had probably been blacklisted.
Could it be that those aunties were lying?
But based on their erroneous conversation, it didn't seem impossible.
Maybe Chuxun did come back once, but he didn't tell his parents that he was sick. That made sense. According to Chuxun's description, their father and son relationship was so bad. So, did Chuxun go to the hospital himself?
"The Sword Is Coming"
Lin Yanchen felt that he had lost his clues again.
If he couldn't find Chuxun from his parents, how could he find Chuxun?
Should he ask every tertiary Grade A hospital?
He didn't even know what illness Chuxun had.
Lin Yanchen searched for more than half a month without a clue.
Zhuang Hanxue told him, "I went to the First People's Hospital of X Province today. I suddenly remembered that I saw a plastic bag with the name of this hospital printed on it at Chuxun's house. He should have been diagnosed in this hospital. Maybe you can go to this hospital to look."
Lin Yanchen hurried to investigate, but the nurses and doctors wouldn't tell him so casually. They had to protect the patient's privacy.
Lin Yanchen thought of a way to save the country in a roundabout way. He asked the hospital's nurses if they remembered a patient with the surname Chu.
He didn't have time to ask alone, so several assistants checked together.
One of the assistants reported back to him, "Boss, we did find it … but …"
Lin Yanchen suddenly became timid. He repeatedly prepared himself mentally before saying, "Tell me, just tell me the truth."
The assistant said, "A nurse with the surname Zhang said that there was indeed a male patient with the surname Chu in the oncology department. He was thirty years old, tall, thin, fair, and wore glasses … He passed away at the beginning of the month."
Lin Yanchen seemed to be listening, but also not. After a long time, he asked, "When he passed away, was there anyone with him?"
"They said no … He has no parents, no relatives, and no friends.
He found a funeral company to handle his funeral. "
Lin Yanchen closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Even his breathing was trembling.
Lin Yanchen felt that he should go find Chuxun's grave, but he suddenly lost his courage.
On the way to find Chuxun, he was asked countless times, "Who are you?"
Yes, he wasn't anyone from Chuxun.
Why was Chuxun so cruel that he refused to see him even when he died?
"Boss, are you okay?"
Lin Yanchen said, "Let me be alone for a while."
He wanted to go back to the place where he met Chuxun. After a few steps, he suddenly felt his chest and stomach burning with sadness. He wanted to vomit, but nothing came out.
Lin Yanchen didn't sleep for the whole night.
The assistant asked him, "Boss, do you still want to continue looking for Mr. Chu's grave?"
Lin Yanchen said, "No … He told me not to look for him.
I'll give you a break, you have a good rest … I also want to be alone for a while. "
The assistant secretly looked at his hair and was a little confused. Did the little boss have white hair in the past?
The author had something to say: If I want him to misunderstand, he has to misunderstand.
See you at 7.
