From abandoned baby to CEO

Chapter 172 Don’t run, stop right there

Sun Xue searched and inquired all the way. Whenever he met someone, Sun Xue would step forward to inquire about Hu Zi's whereabouts.

Sun Xue heard from her grandfather that Huzi walked out of the vegetable market with a group of children. She paid special attention to the children on the street. Whenever she saw a child, Sun Xue would run over and ask patiently: "Children, have you seen a boy wearing a black cotton-padded coat and leather shoes..."

Sun Xue gestured with Hu Zi's height and appearance with his hands as he spoke.

After asking all the way, Sun Xue was disappointed.

Even if there is a little clue! But everyone's answer to Sun Xue was to shake their heads.

Sun Xue searched all the places around the vegetable market, even the nooks and crannies.

Until noon, Sun Xue still didn't get any valuable clues about Huzi.

Sun Xue returned to the rental house in a depressed mood.

As soon as I walked into the house, I saw Old Man Sun kneeling on the ground, burning paper, and kept chanting: "I beg Guanyin Bodhisattva to bless Huzi and let him come back safely."

After saying that, Old Man Sun clasped his hands together and kowtowed three times.

Seeing Sun Xue walking into the house, Old Man Sun asked eagerly: "Xue'er, is there any news about Hu Zi?"

Sun Xue shook her head in disappointment and started busy preparing lunch.

After dinner, Sun Xue called Uncle Zhang. She told Uncle Zhang that Huzi was lost, and she cried on the phone while talking.

Uncle Zhang comforted Sun Xue on the phone and told Sun Xue that he would rush over immediately.

After hanging up the phone, Sun Xue felt hope again.

Uncle Zhang is one of the few friends Sun Xue has in this city. When encountering such a thing, Sun Xue has long been at a loss.

She knew that Uncle Zhang was well-connected and had experienced many things. Maybe he would have a way to help find Huzi. Sun Xue pinned her last glimmer of hope on Uncle Zhang.

"Sun Xue, have you reported the crime?"

Zhang Zhen asked hurriedly as soon as they met.

Sun Xue nodded.

"Do you have any photos of Hu Zi?"

"Yes, yes, but it was taken when he was very young. I haven't taken a picture of him for many years."

"That's okay, you give me the photo, and I'll ask my friends at the newspaper to put a missing person notice in the newspaper."

Sun Xue found Huzi's photo and wrote Huzi's age, height, clothes and other information to Zhang Zhen.

Zhang Zhen took Sun Xue to the printing shop and printed dozens of missing person notices. Driving a car with Sun Xue, he began to post missing persons notices around the place where Huzi was lost.

After working for a long time, I finally posted all the missing persons notices.

"Sun Xue, don't be too anxious. It's noon now. Let's eat first. After eating, I will drive you around to look around."

After they finished eating, they brought a portion to Old Man Sun when they left.

Zhang Zhen asked Old Man Sun in detail about the process of Hu Zi's disappearance, and comforted Old Man Sun. He told Old Man Sun that he had published a missing person notice in the newspaper and would notify Old Man Sun as soon as there was any news.

When Old Man Sun heard that Zhang Zhen was going to drive Sun Xue to look for Huzi, Old Man Sun was unwilling to stay at home, and he insisted on going with Zhang Zhen.

So, Zhang Zhen drove the car and took Old Man Sun and Sun Xue around the streets and alleys where Old Man Sun lived to search.

The car was walking slowly on the street. Old Man Sun and Sun Xue stared vigilantly at the passing pedestrians on the street through the car window, not daring to blink for fear of missing Hu Zi in a blink of an eye.

"parking!"

When passing by a school, Old Man Sun suddenly shouted.

Through the car window, Sun Xue saw what seemed to be a fight at the school gate. A group of children surrounded a boy wearing a black cotton-padded coat. The boy was lying on the ground holding his head.

Before the car stopped, Old Man Sun stood up and opened the door, anxious to get out of the car.

"Uncle, don't worry. I'll find a place to park right away."

Zhang Zhen found a parking space, parked the car, and the three of them got out of the car and hurried to the school gate.

Because the boy lying on the ground had his head in his hands, his appearance could not be clearly seen. Zhang Zhen hurriedly scolded him, and the group of children ran away.

Zhang Zhen pulled up the boy on the ground, and only then did Old Man Sun see clearly that the boy in front of him was not a tiger.

"I look like a tiger in the car!"

Old man Sun said disappointedly.

The car continued to drive, and Old Man Sun seemed to have not recovered from the scene that had just happened, and said to himself: "Will Huzi be bullied by other children?"

At this time, Zhang Zhen's phone rang, and Sun Xue heard Uncle Zhang talking to a man on the phone.

"I haven't seen anyone yet, and you want money?"

"Okay, I believe you. Once you get the money, you have to keep your word!"

After saying that, Zhang Zhen hurriedly hung up the phone.

Zhang Zhen told Old Man Sun that the man on the phone just now told him that he had picked up a tiger cub from the street. The tiger cub is now in his hands, but he asked for a thousand yuan in benefits as soon as he opened the door.

"Ah! The tiger is in his hands? Is it true?"

When the old man heard the news, he asked excitedly.

"He said it was in his hands, but I haven't seen anyone yet, so I'm not sure whether what he said is true?"

Zhang Zhen was not sure how credible the words of the man on the phone were, after all, he had not met the person yet.

"We'll go there now."

Zhang Zhen immediately drove to the place provided by the man.

The car drove out of the city, walked farther and farther, and stopped at a remote place in Jiao'qu.

In front of a forest, a burly-looking middle-aged man was already waiting there.

The middle-aged man wore a hat and a mask, with only his eyes exposed.

"What about people?"

Zhang Zhen asked warily.

"Where's the money you promised? Give it to me first, and I'll take you to see the person, not far ahead."

"Don't lie to me. I can't forgive you if you lie to me."

Uncle Zhang stared into the man's eyes and said.

"In order for you not to cheat, you can only give me the money first. I will definitely take you to see the person after I get the money. Don't worry. If it's not the person you are looking for, I will return the money to you intact." OK?"

Zhang Zhen hesitated for a while and then handed the man one thousand yuan.

"Drive, I'll take you there!"

The man said and got into Zhang Zhen's car.

The car went around the woods and came to a clearing and stopped.

"Did you see the boy standing in front of the house? Get off the car and I'll take you there."

Following the direction the man pointed, Zhang Zhen got out of the car and saw a boy in a black cotton-padded coat standing in front of a dilapidated house not far away with his back to him.

"Tiger!"

Old man Sun shouted excitedly.

Sun Xue supported her grandfather and walked on the narrow path leading to the house.

When no one was paying attention, the man suddenly turned around and ran away.

Zhang Zhen was stunned and immediately chased after the man.

"Don't run! Stop!"

Zhang Zhen chased behind the man and shouted loudly.
