Yihshyong pinched his temples. He felt a little dizzy.
"So what kind of things does one group want, but another group doesn't want?" Shannchyuan asked softly. This question was more like a rhetorical question. "Supposing the things that Songfei entrusted to me were to be divided into two groups. Then what things were in the first handing-in place and what things were in the second handing-in place?" Shannchyuan emphasized his question.
"That bag!" shouted Yihshyong. "Of course it's the real Songfei's bag! The real bag is at the first submission site and the items in the Songfei bag are at the second submission site!"
Shannchyuan nodded. His eyes looked far away somewhere. "So one party wants the bag, while the other party wants the items inside the bag!"
Yihshyong didn't know whether such a conclusion made sense or not. But it was the only possibility they could currently think of.
"I need you to contact Jinqkang at home. Tell him to tell Tsaehorng that I want to see the remains of the burned bags."
"Dahge wanted Tsaehorng to use his connections at the police station to let us see the bags."
"That's right. There's something odd about this. I have to see those two bags myself." Shannchyuan said in such a firm tone.
"Fine! I'll call now. But wouldn't it be better if we called Tsaehorng right away?"
"I don't know where he is now," said Shannchyuan. "He may still be at the exhibition. Do you know the telephone number of the exhibition hall?"
"I don't know. But I know how to reach him through the pager."
"Suit yourself. If you think we should contact Tsaehorng directly, then, by all means, do so."
"Okay, Dahge!"
"But don't get too tense. You don't need to rush. It's not tonight that I have to see it. I think tomorrow afternoon or evening will be a good time."
"I think the chances of the doctors letting Dahge out of here tomorrow are slim," Yihshyong said.
"Not necessarily." Shannchyuan smiled. "The proof, this afternoon they have allowed Shinnshiow to go home."
"That's not the same," Yihshyong snapped.
"Whatever it is," said Shannchyuan. "I'll find a way to get out of here as soon as possible."
Yihshyong nodded.
Now I'm totally convinced that Dahge must have some special connection that we didn't know about!
"But we still have to call Tsaehorng tonight. He has to get permission from the police officer in charge of the matter." Yihshyong intended to leave the room.
"Before you go on the phone, I have something to ask you."
"Please Dahge, ask the question."
"During my absence, did you ever see or hear anything related to me?"
Yihshyong fell silent. He was stunned. He didn't know whether Shannchyuan could already remember something about the things he and Iren witnessed when they were in the area near their neighbor's friend's warehouse. Or if his dahge had just guessed from the attitude he showed.
"Indeed, there are things that still make me confused. I postponed asking that to Dahge because I'm not sure that Dahge can explain it. I plan to ask that when Dahge's condition is better."
"You mean when I can remember everything?"
"That's right, Dahge."
"What if those memories never come back?"
"Yes, it might happen. Of course I won't wait that long. If in one week Dahge still can't remember everything, then I'll start asking that question. Seven days from now, I think, at least Dahge has recovered physically."
"That's taking too long. You better tell me now."
Yihshyong pinched his temples. He felt a little dizzy.
