The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone on Hao Yuan's face, forcing her to wake up from her sleep. Then Hao Yuan sat up in confusion, as if she didn't quite understand what was happening.

Where is my bed? Where is my quilt? What about the big family house that I borrowed to live in?

She looked around. The houses she saw yesterday were no longer there, replaced by several graves. She counted them subconsciously, no more, no less, exactly ten.

Did the Zhao family move her out as a joke, or has she always been here? Thinking of this, Hao Yuan couldn't help but trembled and stood up suddenly. The cold wind blew up and caused goosebumps all over his body.

Hao Yuan's legs were a little weak and she subconsciously wanted to run away. But for some reason, she looked at the grave bag behind her. She didn't know if it belonged to the old lady. After all, there was no monument. She bowed: "Grandma, I want to Let’s go, thank you.”

Then Hao Yuan didn't stay any longer and left the place quickly. She was a little far away. She couldn't help but look back and vaguely saw a row of figures waving to her, as if saying goodbye. She trembled in fright and ran away. Gotta go faster.

When she could no longer see the graves, she relaxed a little and couldn't help but rub her arms.

It was time to make breakfast, and Hao Yuan followed the smoke again. No matter what, he had to find a place with people. Not long after leaving, he met another person who came out to work early in the morning. Out of caution, Hao Yuan did not speak and only looked at the person, which shocked others.

"Oh, whose daughter are you from? You were staring blankly and not saying anything. It scared me." The man also observed Hao Yuan before he spoke.

"Uncle, I got separated from my family. I'm waiting for my father to pick me up." She shouldn't be so unlucky this time, right? After confirming that the other party was a living person, Hao Yuan couldn't help but burst into tears and his tone was choked with sobs.

"Don't cry, my dear daughter. If people see this, they won't think I'm bullying you." The uncle hurriedly waved his hand to tell Hao Yuan to stop crying, "Come, come home with me, and I'll let my wife talk to you. .”

The uncle said, turned around and led Hao Yuan back home. The uncle's wife was making breakfast. When she saw that her husband had gone out and brought back a little girl, she couldn't help but glare at him.

The uncle hurriedly explained that he had brought the girl back after seeing her separated from her family, and his wife breathed a sigh of relief. She thought that his man had abducted the little girl.

"Daughter, come sit down. You haven't had breakfast, right? Auntie has cooked porridge and pancakes. Eat some while they're hot." Auntie turned around and greeted Hao Yuan warmly.

"Thank you, ma'am." Hao Yuan thanked me obediently.

"Thank you. This person is out and about, how can he not encounter something? My daughter, where are you from? Are you here to play or to visit relatives?"

After following the aunt and sitting at the dining table, Hao Yuan looked at the simple food on the table. Hao Yuan couldn't help but recall that she had eaten yesterday. She knew that the family was not human, so what did she eat? Thinking like this, Hao Yuan lost his appetite.

"My home is in Qingshui City. I...I ran out to play by myself and came here. Now my dad is preparing to pick me up and go home." Hao Yuan didn't dare to say what brought him here, for fear of scaring others. .

"Did you have a quarrel with your family? If something happens as a family, you must communicate more. Don't run away like this. This will make the family worried." After listening to this, the aunt consciously imagined the story of a rebellious girl running away from home. Plot, heartfelt advice.

"Well, I understand, I won't do it again." Hao Yuan couldn't explain, so he had to agree with a cute face.

"You traveled so far, where did you live before? Why did you come to our place so early in the morning?" the aunt asked again.

"Oh, I heard someone said that the scenery here is good. I just came here yesterday and stayed at Zhao Laoliu's house for the night." Hao Yuan thought for a while and decided to inquire.

"Who?" The aunt was stunned for a moment, and the uncle over there was distracted and knocked over the bowl.

"This Zhao Laoliu..." The uncle wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the aunt.

"Really? The Zhao Laoliu family are very nice. They like you, right?" Hao Yuan could tell that the aunt was forcing a smile.

"Well, grandma also lent me her mobile phone to make calls. His granddaughter also likes to play with me." The hair on Hao Yuan's back stood up as he followed what his aunt said.

"It's very good, my dear daughter, why don't you eat it? Are you not used to it? Auntie will give you another bowl of thick food." Auntie took the bowl from Hao Yuan's hand and turned around to fill the rice. The uncle also drank the porridge in two mouthfuls and ran to serve the rice himself.

Hao Yuan saw that the two of them seemed to be communicating in a low voice and couldn't help but listen.

"Daughter-in-law, why didn't you tell her that except Zhao Laoliu and his two eldest grandsons, everyone in Zhao Laoliu's family is gone? Didn't their family move to the county town long ago?" The uncle lowered his voice and spoke. I didn't forget to take a look at Hao Yuan.

When Hao Yuan saw her uncle looking at her, she had no time to do anything else, so she could only smile awkwardly at the uncle. She probably thought that Hao Yuan couldn't hear her, so the uncle also smiled at her.

"You're stupid! Why don't you scare the little girl by saying this? Don't mention this matter again later. Oh, why do things like this always happen in our village!" The aunt glared at the uncle and sighed. He took a breath and put on a smile when he turned around, "Daughter, when will your father arrive? If you don't mind it, why not wait for your father here?"

"Thank you, aunt. My dad will probably arrive tomorrow, but I have to call him again. My phone is out of battery. Do you have a charger here?" Hao Yuan also pretended not to know anything.

"There should be. I don't know if you can use my son's charger. We don't know how to use whatever smartphones kids like to use nowadays. The chargers are all different. I'll look for it for you later."

"Auntie, do you have a son? Why aren't you at home?" Hao Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"Isn't he still studying? He just came back on the weekend." The aunt talked about her son with a smile on her face.

"...Ah, yes, I forgot, haha..." Hao Yuan was stunned for a moment, isn't today the weekend? She felt a little uneasy, but she still echoed what the other person said.

After Hao Yuan borrowed the charger and turned on the phone, he saw the date on it and felt that it was indeed the case.

It had been four days since the day she went to No. 1 Middle School. In her opinion, four days had passed in just a short time. It seemed that that place was indeed a different space, and the flow of time was also different.

Hao Yuan called Zhang's father again and told him where he was, and then relaxed. The previous family members were all Ah Piao, so it's impossible for this family to be the same, right?

The family's conditions should be good. At least they have built a building. Therefore, the room given to Hao Yuan should be a guest room where relatives and guests can stay. The room should not be often occupied, so it has a bit of moisture and musty smell. Hao Yuan does not have it. Picky, after all, in the countryside, no matter how well you clean it, it will always be like this if no one lives there.

Through the window, Hao Yuan could see patches of farmland and vegetable fields. The vegetable fields were so green that it was hard to see what vegetables were being grown from a distance, because on the second floor, Hao Yuan could still see a few scattered vegetables in the distance. When staying at other people's homes, the occasional barking of dogs and the vague chatter of villagers could be heard. This was the world of normal people. In such an environment, Hao Yuan felt a lot more at ease.

After staying here for another day, I encountered no other strange things except the dogs barking frequently in the village at night.

Early the next morning, Zhang's father called Hao Yuan and told her that he had arrived at Nianzi Village and would come to pick her up later.

Father Zhang and Officer Yang took turns driving and found Nianzi Village as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, the car broke down without rest for a long time, so the four of them found a tractor to take them. The tractor driver originally heard them talking about the Fourth Team of Nianzi Village. After rejecting them, Father Zhang agreed to take them there after adding more money.

Fortunately, we are now vigorously developing rural areas, and the village is also connected to roads. When Hao Yuan was helping to wash the dishes after breakfast, Zhang's father came to see Hao Yuan. As soon as he saw Hao Yuan, Zhang's father was so excited that he shed tears. Officer Yang was relatively calm. After all, he was an experienced detective who had handled many cases.

However, the two members of the task force looked around the village, looked at each other solemnly, and ultimately did nothing.

"Dad, please stop crying. Am I okay?" Hao Yuan comforted Zhang's father at a loss as he saw his excitement.

Zhang's father was just worried about his daughter. Now that his daughter was safe, Hao Yuan only coaxed her for a while, and Zhang's father regained his composure.

When Hao Yuan turned around to say goodbye to her uncle and aunt, she found that they were no longer at home. She went out to look for it again, but still couldn't find it. She didn't realize that Officer Yang, who came with Zhang's father, was listening. She had a strange expression when she said goodbye to someone.

Hao Yuan couldn't find anyone, so he could only regretfully leave with Zhang's father and the others. Since the car driven by Zhang's father was still being repaired, they decided to rest one night after entering the county town and leave early tomorrow morning.

During this period, Hao Yuan contacted the members of the task force. Facing their inquiries, Hao Yuan told them what he saw and heard without any concealment. This is an official organization. It would be better if there is official help, and it is also professional. Having someone to protect her made her feel safer.

Because he was afraid that Zhang's father would be worried, Hao Yuan decided to rest in the hotel room and did not dare to run around anymore. But at about four o'clock in the afternoon, Hao Yuan felt a little hungry, so accompanied by Zhang's father and Officer Yang, he went out to look for something to eat.

Hao Yuan searched for the restaurant with the highest reviews nearby and decided to go there for dinner. Although there were not many people in the restaurant when they arrived, there were not many people there. The three of them found an empty table and sat down. After ordering, they waited for the food to be served.

Hao Yuan looked around covertly and guessed whether there was Ah Piao around.

As she looked around, the sound of conversation at the next table caught her attention.

"...People in the city are not hypocritical. Just my sixth uncle, doesn't he drive a tractor? This morning, a few rich people actually asked him to go to the fourth team of Nianzi Village to pull people!" What did Hao Yuan say before? Pay attention, but the words Nianzi Village made her a little concerned.

"What? You actually went to the Fourth Team of Nianzi Village!?" Another person was very surprised. "They are so brave. Since that incident, there has been no one in the Fourth Team. No one dared to go. I heard that the place is evil. Very, tut!”

"No, that Zhao Laoliu is really evil. He set fire to his own house and burned people to death, and he actually poisoned the reservoir! The whole brigade was harmed by him! It's really hard for such a person to be shot. You deserve it!”

"I just feel sorry for the two boys in his family. Their wife is gone, their reputation is gone, and they don't dare to come back during the holidays."

The two people sighed with emotion, but Hao Yuan felt cold all over and didn't dare to think about how he got here in the past two days...
