From abandoned baby to CEO
Chapter 174 Surprises keep coming
"Uncle, Sun Xue, let's go to Wangjiaqu quickly."
Zhang Zhen hung up the phone and immediately turned around and drove in the direction of Wangjiaqu.
"Uncle, what did you say on the phone?"
As the car was speeding on the road, Old Man Sun asked worriedly.
"We still don't know what the situation is. Some people say that a little boy drowned in Wangjiaqu. They say he looks a bit like Hu Zi in the missing persons notice."
"That person just said they look like each other, not necessarily Hu Zi. Uncle, don't worry too much."
Zhang Zhen was afraid that Old Man Sun would have random thoughts again, so he quickly added.
Old Man Sun hummed, then turned his gaze out the car window, staring blankly at the disappearing trees outside the window.
Wangjiaqu is also in the suburbs, but it's not too far from where Old Man Sun lives, so the car will arrive quickly.
After getting off the car, Old Man Sun saw from a distance a group of people gathered around the place where the accident happened.
Old Man Sun felt uneasy and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
From morning to now, there have been constant surprises, only to be disappointed again and again. His already fragile heart was tortured again and again, and Old Man Sun felt that he was about to collapse.
There was a deep channel where the accident occurred, and the current was very fast. There was a body lying on the ground, which had been covered tightly with cloth.
The villagers who were watching were all sighing and lamenting that such a young child had lost his life.
Old Man Sun squeezed into the crowd. He leaned down and felt as if his heart would jump out of his throat because of the nervousness. He slowly opened the cloth covering the body.
The boy's body may have been soaked in the water for too long, and his whole body was swollen, making it difficult to recognize from his face.
Looking at the corpse in front of him, Old Man Sun burst into tears.
He couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly covered it with cloth, got up and walked out of the crowd, sobbing quietly as he walked.
"Uncle, is that boy a tiger?"
Zhang Zhen caught up with Old Man Sun and asked doubtfully.
The moment Old Man Sun lifted the cloth, Zhang Zhen also saw the boy's appearance, but his face was so swollen that it was difficult to recognize.
"No, Huzi has a big mole on his neck, but this child doesn't have one. Alas! The child looks so pitiful!"
Old Man Sun felt frightened when he thought of the scene he just saw. The child seemed to be about the same age as Huzi. Seeing such a cruel scene, Old Man Sun thought of Huzi. He was afraid that Huzi would accidentally fall into the ditch while trying to find his way home...
Zhang Zhen drove Old Man Sun and Sun Xue around for a whole day, but by nightfall, they still found nothing.
The three of them were a little tired. Zhang Zhen took them to finish their meal, sent them to the rental house, comforted Old Man Sun for a few words, and then went home.
Before leaving, Zhang Zhen told Sun Xue to call him immediately if anything happens.
Old man Sun sat on the bedside in a depressed mood and kept smoking. The room was filled with mist. After smoking, Old Man Sun lay on the bed motionless and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
Sun Xue didn't know how to comfort her grandfather, and what happened today deeply touched her heart. Thinking of the abducted children and seeing the unrecognizable children soaked in water in the ditch, Sun Xue couldn't help but think of Hu Zi. Every time he thought about it, the worry in his heart became more serious.
Sun Xue thought to herself, no matter how difficult it is, she must persist in looking for Hu Zi. As long as there is still a glimmer of hope, she must do everything possible to keep searching.
Maybe it was because he was irritated during the day, or maybe because he had not recovered from the cold, but Old Man Sun had no energy at all. Sun Xue felt that her grandfather had become more miserable and haggard overnight.
The next morning, when Sun Xue got up, she found that her grandfather had started to have a fever again, and his mouth was so dry that there was a layer of blood scab. Sun Xue took his temperature and found that it was 38.5 degrees.
Sun Xue hurriedly took her grandfather to the small clinic on the street. The doctor suggested that it would be best to infuse some fluids, but Old Man Sun insisted on taking a fever-reducing injection. After the injection, Old Man Sun returned to the rental house.
Sun Xue settled her grandfather down and hurriedly went out. Sun Xue knew that he had already searched everywhere he could find nearby, but Sun Xue still had a little fantasy in his heart. He might suddenly be able to meet Hu Zi somewhere unexpectedly. And meet.
Sun Xue didn't plan to go too far. She thought about it last night and felt that maybe there was something wrong with the direction they were looking for. She had a strong hunch in her heart: Huzi must not have gone far, right under their noses.
There are a large number of farmhouses around the place where he lives. If Huzi realized that he was lost at that time, he would definitely go back home. When he first came here, he would often go around with his grandfather. He should have some memories of the place where he lived.
Because the surrounding bungalows are relatively messy and look very similar, maybe Huzi got lost nearby...
Sun Xue searched one house after another. When she saw a house with unlocked doors, Sun Xue knocked on the door and asked the owner.
Two hours later, an unexpected news made Sun Xue very excited.
An old woman from a family told Sun Xue that she saw a boy wearing a black cotton-padded coat passing by her door one day ago. He looked very embarrassed. His height and appearance were very consistent with Sun Xue's description.
Sun Xue continued to search in the direction pointed by the old lady, and made another significant gain.
The owner of a household told Sun Xue that when he saw the boy, he thought he was a homeless man. At that time, he was eating sweet potatoes at the door, and the boy kept staring at him eagerly and swallowing his saliva.
Later, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he gave the remaining half of the sweet potato to the boy. The boy ran away with the sweet potato.
This news made Sun Xue so excited, and Sun Xue was even more convinced that Hu Zi had not gone far and was nearby.
Hope ignited in Sun Xue's heart again. She didn't even bother to eat lunch. She didn't dare to stop searching for a moment. She felt that the tiger was not far away from her...
Until five o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Xue searched almost all the bungalows and asked everyone he could, but never got any news about Hu Zi.
In other words, after Huzi ran away with the sweet potato, he suddenly disappeared from people's sight...
Where did he go? Where did he spend the night these two days? What does he rely on to fill his stomach?
Sun Xue had too many questions in her heart. She felt that Huzi would definitely look for food when he was hungry, and someone should have seen it! But she asked so many people, but no one saw him again, as if he suddenly disappeared.
Sun Xue walked back full of doubts. When she heard Huzi ran away with the sweet potatoes, at that moment, she felt that she was getting closer to Huzi, as if Huzi was not far away, but As she walked further back, she found that Huzi was getting further and further away from her.
After the huge surprise, her mood hit rock bottom.
Sun Xue walked on the way home dejectedly, and it was already getting dark.
When Sun Xue looked up, she saw a dark figure lying next to the trash can in the night, looking for something...
