The email had the backstory and what had happened, but leg brother's efforts to collect the final "results" in the following days were not going smoothly.
He found the online store owner, briefly explained his purpose, but the seller avoided the topic completely and denied the existence of the incident in the first sentence, leaving leg brother, who had hoped to record the conversation and get some solid information, helpless.
Though Elder Meng had lived for many years and did not understand many things on the internet, he was quite good at keeping his promises; no matter how leg brother tried to probe indirectly, or even had someone pretend to be a Taobao employee to make a follow-up call, Elder Meng did not disclose any useful information, as if the entire incident had never happened.
Since he couldn't collect the ideal information, leg brother stopped obsessing over it, placed related materials into his personal safe, and temporarily ceased his investigation.
