Gu Zhiyuan rode his bicycle and rushed to the department store as quickly as possible.

In the yard, a car was ready to go. Li Jianguo was leaning against the car and smoking, his face was ashen, and he looked at the gate from time to time.

Seeing Gu Zhiyuan's figure, Li Jianguo took a long drag on his cigarette, threw the half-full cigarette on the ground, crushed it with his heel, and walked towards Gu Zhiyuan.

Gu Zhiyuan also saw Li Jianguo at a glance, threw his bicycle aside, and walked up to Li Jianguo in a few steps: "What is going on?"

Li Jianguo frowned and grabbed Gu Zhiyuan: "We'll talk about it in detail on the way, I'll wait for you!"

As he spoke, he casually called a person passing by and asked him to put Gu Zhiyuan's bicycle in the guard room until they came back.

He dragged Gu Zhiyuan into the car.

The driver waited for the two of them to get into the car, and before they could even sit down, he started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and sped off towards Red Star Commune.

"We also just received a call from Hongxing Commune, saying that Xiaoyan followed a clerk named Cao Yang from their commune early this morning to inspect the production brigade down there, and went to a place called Yanchi Production brigade, and then he disappeared. .”

"According to the arrangement, they should go to the Matang Production Brigade today. I don't know why they went to the Yanchi Production Brigade."

"The people at the Matang Production Brigade who had been waiting to receive them didn't see Xiaoyan and Cao Yang. They called the commune and the commune found out."

"The commune originally thought that they had changed production teams for inspection midway, but to be cautious, they still sent people to each brigade to ask if they had seen the two people. When asked, a passerby said that they saw Xiaoyan and Cao Yang producing towards Yanchi. The team went in that direction."

"The commune quickly sent people to chase the Yanchi production brigade, but the production brigade said they didn't see the two people at all. The two sides couldn't match up, so the commune discovered something was wrong and sent people everywhere to search. So far, there is no news. ——”

Li Jianguo saw Gu Zhiyuan's face was gloomy and silent. The low pressure all over his body made him unbearable and he couldn't speak any more.

"It has been eight or nine hours since Aning set out, right? Is the Yanchi production brigade close to the mountain? Besides the passerby, has anyone else seen her and the clerk? How is the commune handling it now? How many people were sent to look for it? Did they draw a rough range to look for it, or did they look for it blindly?"

Gu Zhiyuan took a deep breath to calm down and asked questions one after another.

Li Jianguo was stunned, and it took him a long time to find his voice: "I, I don't know yet. We won't know the specific situation until we get the Red Star Commune."

Gu Zhiyuan could no longer maintain his usual calm expression. He closed his eyes, rubbed his eyebrows with one hand, and tapped his leg unconsciously with the other. He was quickly calculating in his mind how many people there were at Red Star Commune. , how many people can be mobilized...

Li Jianguo didn't dare to express his anger at the side. Before, he only thought that Gu Zhiyuan, although young, looked like someone out of the ordinary.

Today I really saw the extraordinary momentum of this young man.

For a moment, cold sweat broke out on his back. This momentum was comparable to that of many high-ranking and powerful leaders he had seen.

Not to mention the driver at the front, he has seen a lot of people and things in his travels. If something happens to someone in this family, the one who is not in the accident will either cry and make a fuss or be dumbfounded. The better ones can barely maintain their dignity.

There is no one like Gu Zhiyuan who is as terrifying as Gu Zhiyuan and can calmly analyze and ask questions one by one.

Seeing that Section Chief Li was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, he didn't even dare to look back and stepped on the accelerator as if it were his life gate, wishing he could fly to the Red Star Commune all at once.

The bus took two or three hours to travel, but the driver relied on his strength and arrived in just over an hour.

In February and March, it gets dark early.

At around five o'clock, it was almost dark.

The lights in the commune are brightly lit at the moment, and there are many people in the yard. Everyone knows that something big has happened. If the people are not found, I am afraid that no one in the commune, from the leaders to the clerks, will get any good results.

The atmosphere was very dull. Director Zhang slapped the table in the office and cursed people. Those who were scolded had spit sprayed on their faces and did not dare to wipe them with their hands.

The car almost rushed into the courtyard of the commune, and a sudden brake resounded throughout the courtyard.

Director Zhang was about to curse, but when he heard the sound of brakes, he realized something and walked out of the office quickly.

I saw Li Jianguo and Gu Zhiyuan getting out of the car.

Director Zhang stepped forward with a wry smile: "I'm really sorry. It's because we didn't do our job well that this accident happened! Don't worry, we have arranged people to search for it in several nearby brigades. Even if it's Turn the entire Red Star Commune upside down and find everyone——"

Gu Zhiyuan interrupted Director Zhang: "Where is the person who last saw Aning and Cao Yang?"

Director Zhang was interrupted, but he did not dare to be annoyed and waved: "Secretary He, where is the fellow who last met Comrade Xiao Xu and Cao Yang?"

Secretary He understood it and brought over an honest-looking man.

The man had never seen such a battle before. He rubbed his hands and stood there anxiously: "Leader, leader, are you looking for me?"

He regretted a little. If he had known it was so scary, he shouldn't have spoken so quickly. Otherwise, he would have been sleeping at home with his wife in his arms, so why would he be blowing the cold wind here?

Gu Zhiyuan tried his best to soften his expression, took out a few banknotes from his pocket, and spread them out in front of the man one by one, "fellow, please tell me again what you saw in detail, The more detailed you tell us, the more clues you can provide us with, and the greater the reward!”

With the light coming from the commune office, the man saw several banknotes, including one yuan, two yuan, and five yuan. In the end, he actually saw one with more than ten yuan.

His eyes suddenly lit up and he swallowed: "Are you serious?"

Gu Zhiyuan nodded, first took out one piece and gave it to the man.

The man grabbed the money and held it tightly. He thought for a while before speaking.

Rather than telling the people in the commune simply, he now wanted to tell him everything he had eaten in the morning.

It turned out that he was from the Wangqiao production brigade next to the Yanchi brigade, and his name was Wang Laowu.

Because I was lazy, I got up in the morning and soaked some leftover food from last night in hot water and ate it. Not long after I came out to work, I felt a stomachache.

He asked for leave and ran to the bushes on the roadside to solve personal problems.

I heard a man and a woman passing by the roadside. The man introduced the woman to them, talking about inspections and going to the Yanchi Production Brigade.

At that time, Wang Laowu muttered to himself, could it be that the leaders from above came to inspect?But why go to the Yanchi Brigade?Isn't their Wangqiao brigade stronger than the Yanchi brigade?

However, he was taking a shit and couldn't make a sound. The woman only heard a few questions about the situation of Yanchi Brigade.

When they were farther away, Wang Laowu lifted up his pants and looked in that direction.

I saw the backs of a man and a woman, heading in the direction of the Yanchi Brigade.
