In front of the gate of a dilapidated old building on the outskirts of the Economic Development Zone, Wilbur raised his hand and
knocked on the rusty gate. After waiting for a while, an elderly amputee with both legs missing struggled toe out and open the
door.
"Who are you looking for, young man?" The elderly disabled man opened the door and saw Wilbur's unfamiliar face, so he asked
with a puzzled expression.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWilbur smiled after he heard that, asking, "Excuse me, sir. Is this Lindon Tomaz's family?"
Hearing Wilbur's question, the old man immediately had a vigilant look on his face. He carefully looked at Wilbur and asked, "What
is your relationship with that person? Do you need something from them?"
Seeing the old man's wary look, Wilbur knew that it might not be as easy as he imagined to gather evidence.
After a moment of thought, Wilbur had a sudden moment of inspiration. Then, he took out Pendelton's business card and handed it
to the old man, saying, "Sir, I'm the secretary of Pendleton Howard, the one in charge of the city. I'm here to make sinquiries.
Are you free?"
"No, not at all... Just leave! | don't know any Lindon Tomaz either!"
The man immediately waved his hand to reject Wilbur when he heard Wilbur's purpose. Then, he slammed the door shut without
giving Wilbur another chance to speak.
"This is weird! The address clearly says this is the place, but..."
Wilbur muttered to himself outside the door for a moment, then he quickly understood what was going on.

situation while he paid.
