That day Ji Qingchan waited in the dormitory until eleven o'clock in the evening and Lu Shen hadn't come back. There was still an hour until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. It was five o'clock in the afternoon when Ji Qingchan received Lu Shen's message, saying that she had already rushed to school.

At 11:30, Ji Qingchan called Lu Shen, but there was a busy tone and no one answered the phone. Ji Qingchan felt that something was wrong with her clear and calm mind, but maybe something was delayed at Lu Shen's family. Said that his parents waited until after his birthday to go abroad, maybe they were saying goodbye, or something.

Ji Qingchan sat on her bed until the phone screen lit up, a full moon flashed across the screen, and then a bowl of steaming glutinous rice balls appeared, and a few round words popped up on the glutinous rice balls: I wish you a happy Lantern Festival .

Ji Qingchan didn't draw the curtains, and when she looked up, she could see the bright full moon outside the window. The cold but bright moonlight lit up the night. Ji Qingchan could clearly see the faint teaching buildings outside the window and the rustling camphor trees on both sides of the road.

It's just that Lu Shen hasn't come back yet.

Lu Shen disappeared, and Ji Qingchan waited until one o'clock in the morning, and immediately called Lu Shen's home. It was Lu's father who answered the call. After checking, Lu Shen left home for school at 04:30 in the afternoon.

The Lu family called the police overnight, but did not tell Grandma Lu about the matter. The two parents contacted various forces available in Haishi as quickly as possible that night.

After Ji Qingchan confirmed this, she didn't know what to do for about 5 minutes. The moonlight outside the window was getting brighter and brighter, and the moon was surrounded by silver light, which was very beautiful.

He changed out of his pajamas, got dressed, took some things into his bag without a clue, and went down from the fifth floor to the second floor. At this time, it took a long time to explain to the dormitory supervisor to open the door. Ji Qingchan went straight to the second floor. The big terrace on the first floor, without even thinking about it, stepped onto the terrace and jumped towards the lawn on the first floor.

She sprained her ankle but it was fine. Ji Qingchan stretched her ankle and ran towards the playground with her schoolbag on her back. She ran to the place where Dongdong climbed over the wall every time, climbed up, jumped over the wall, and turned out of the school.

The [-]th day of the first lunar month is in midwinter, Ji Qingchan didn't wear a few clothes, but he was not cold at all, Lu Leng and Hu Wei were stunned when they saw the boy who had only met once before suddenly appear in the police station , not to mention that he was only wearing a small padded jacket and a big schoolbag on his back, his cheeks were flushed from the cold.

Ji Qingchan looked at Lu Leng calmly, not feeling that there was anything wrong with her, and asked in a panting voice:

"Any news?"

Lu Leng looked at Ji Qingchan with serious eyes for two seconds, then shook his head at him, Ji Qingchan continued to ask:

"Has the monitoring been checked?"

The level of nervousness and concern was no less than that of Lu Shen's parents. Lu Ling took a step back and said to the deputy director of the Haishi Public Security Bureau who just rushed over:

"He is Lu Shen's friend, can you take him to see the surveillance?"

The deputy director immediately nodded and asked his subordinates to bring Ji Qingchan into the monitoring room.

After Ji Qingchan entered, Lu Leng's expression was still stiff, his wife was beside him with tears in his eyes, and the deputy director's tone was comforting:

"If it's a professional kidnapping, I'll have a letter tomorrow, so sit down first."

The deputy bureau had heard of Lu Leng before he took office. Lu Leng's father, Lu Zhengchuan, was a well-known scholar in Haishi, and the honorary curator of Haishi Museum. The names of several students I have taught have reached the point where I cannot speak out.

Lu Leng is not only the son of Lu Zhengchuan, but also the founder of LM. Most people in China have heard of the name LM, but no one knows that this group was founded by a Chinese who is not yet 50 years old.

LM is the leader in the series of companies that develop artificial intelligence technology. Their artificial intelligence technology has reached a very proficient level, and it is developing extremely rapidly in Europe and the United States. Many domestic first-line brands have always wanted to introduce it, but Lu Ling seems to have never wanted to. With the heart of domestic development, fewer people know Lu Ling's name than Lu Zhengchuan, but Lu Ling is by no means worse than his father.

Lu Ling's assets are difficult to value, so Lu Shen's disappearance this time is likely to be for money.But what Lu Leng was puzzled about was that their family kept secrets very well. Even few people abroad knew Lu Shen's appearance, let alone in China, and Lu Shen hardly mentioned his grandfather and father. Keep a low profile, if it was a kidnapping, when did the kidnappers target Lu Shen?

Children who study in foreign languages ​​are either rich or expensive. Although there are occasional kidnappings, they are all very high-profile children.

At this time, Ji Qingchan came out after watching the surveillance, looked at Lu Leng, and took the initiative to say:

"Lu Shen disappeared in Mo Street."

Lu Ling nodded, before he arrived at the police station, the police told him that Lu Shen took a taxi instead of taking a shortcut, and took a place called "Mo Street" in Haishi.

There are not many surveillance cameras on Mo Street, and there are only small stalls and hawkers. Many shopkeepers will come here to do wholesale.

After the taxi turned into Mo Street, it soon turned out the same way, but there was no Lu Shen in the car. The police have contacted the taxi driver. The driver said on the phone that it was because Mo Street was full of electric three-wheeled goods. , originally wanted to take a shortcut but found that it was slower, so the boy who was riding in the car paid the fare, got out of the car and walked inward, intending to take a taxi again after crossing Mo Street.

The taxi did not lie, and agreed to come to the police station in the morning to make a statement.

Ji Qingchan looked at Lu Leng's serious expression and asked:

"Did you ask someone to look for it?"

Lu Ling became more and more impressed with his son's boyfriend. When encountering such a thing, he was not only calm and calm, but also not afraid of Lu Ling at all. You must know that most children will be cautious when they see their elders, let alone Lu Ling. up.

Lu Ling hummed:

"finding."

Ji Qingchan looked at Lu Leng, then at Lu Shen's mother who was secretly wiping away tears, and said what she was hesitant to say:

"Is the person you call familiar with Haishi? Is there... a gray area?"

Lu Leng frowned for a second, the child in front of him had eyes that were more mature than adults, and he shook his head at Ji Qingchan, Ji Qingchan's eyes were clear:

"I'm going to call someone to look for it now. You give me a number, and I can communicate with you anytime you have news."

Lu Leng gave Ji Qingchan's number, and watched the boy's frozen red face disappear, and he melted into the darkness with a big bag on his back, as if he had been trained quickly.

The impression of Ji Qingchan in my mind changed again and again, I don't know where my son found such a special child.

Ji Qingchan knocked on several doors on Garbage Street at three o'clock in the morning, told everyone why they were here, and asked who was in charge of Mo Street. Before 03:30, everyone who could help began to help Ji Qingchan find someone .

Ji Qingchan went to an old residential area on the edge of Mo Street alone. When she climbed up to the sixth floor, the sky was already foggy, and the sky began to gradually light up.

Ji Qingchan knocked on the door for more than ten minutes before there was a sound of cursing inside. A middle-aged man in an old man's vest who didn't seem to feel the temperature difference opened the door. The door smelled like alcohol.

The man was woken up with a hostile face, and after looking for a long time, he recognized the person outside the door. Ji Qingchan stood there with a cold expression, and shouted a big python.

Da Mang is a well-known hooligan in Haishi, and he met Ji Qingchan two years ago because of some disputes in Garbage Street. When Da Mang saw Ji Qingchan, he let out a yo-ha, the voice was so loud that the whole building could hear:

"A rare visitor!"

Ji Qingchan walked into Da Mang's house with a chill all over her body, and Da Mang turned on the lights, and there were wine bottles and condoms all over the floor.Ji Qingchan took a deep breath, turned around and looked at the big python, with a serious tone:

"A friend of mine disappeared in Mur Street. I heard that you have a lot of food in Mur Street recently?"

Big Python smiled and nodded:

"It's okay, the merchants over there are very good at collecting protection fees and so on. What's the situation with your friend? Is there anyone in Mo Street who dares to kidnap?"

Ji Qingchan nodded:

"I don't know if it was kidnapping, but the person disappeared there. There are trucks coming and going every day. I don't know where the person is now. Can you help?"

The big python hiccupped, waved his hand and said hello:

"What am I supposed to do? You still come to me in person, and you can just talk on the phone. I'll ask you in the morning, from family to family. Brother, if you don't say anything else, you just say one word, righteousness!"

Ji Qingchan wanted something from Da Mang, she didn't roll her eyes at his righteous words, said thank you, and explained some details before leaving, leaving the community towards Mo Street in the early morning fog.

For the whole day, except for a few merchants that Da Mang knew who said they saw Lu Shen, there was no effective information. Those merchants only saw it, but their business was busy, and no one paid attention to where the boy came from.

The other people Ji Qingchan asked to dig three feet couldn't find it, and the group of people hired by Lu Lenghua with a lot of money also found nothing. What's even more strange is that Lu Leng didn't receive any information or phone calls about blackmail.

Lu Shen seemed to disappear into this world out of thin air.

On the night of the 36th day of the first lunar month, Ji Qingchan hadn't slept for [-] hours. He didn't go back to school. He sat in the police station and watched the surveillance cameras on Mojie repeatedly.

Lu Shen's mother went back to rest a long time ago, and Lu Ling also took a short rest in the car. Only Ji Qingchan's energy came from somewhere, and kept stretching that string, except for her expression becoming more and more dignified, and her face becoming more and more pale , do not see any change.

Lu Leng felt uncomfortable looking at the child, walked to Ji Qingchan's side and sat down to watch the surveillance with him, finally bringing some parental comfort into his tone:

"If I can't find it before tomorrow morning, I will post a missing person notice."

Ji Qingchan nodded, still staring at the monitor intently. Lu Leng glanced at Ji Qingchan's thin side face. He had never said such considerate words to Lu Shen in his life, but he finally spoke:

"You go to rest. It's okay if you don't want to go back to school. I arranged a caravan outside. If this continues, the body will not be able to bear it."

Ji Qingchan shook her head calmly, perfunctorily as if she just nodded.

The clock was almost at twelve, and Ji Qingchan stared at the slowly moving hour hand, gritted his teeth, and fixed his eyes on the monitors from five different angles.

Lu Shen's birthday is coming to an end.

Lu Leng watched Ji Qingchan for a while and then left the monitoring room, still kept answering and calling, his heart was also hanging, but on the surface it was always the Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face remained unchanged.Friends and business partners from all over the world want to help, but they still get nothing even after investing the most money and connections. Lu Ling's people have even secretly turned Mo Jie upside down.

Ji Qingchan's throat was dry, and she reached for the teacup next to her. Her hands were trembling because she hadn't eaten for a long time, and she accidentally knocked over the teacup.

The light green tea was spilled on the monitoring platform, Ji Qingchan and the little policeman hurriedly cleaned and wiped it, Ji Qingchan wiped the monitoring platform while saying sorry, the moment he picked up the cup again, he suddenly saw the third monitoring quickly passing by In one corner, Ji Qingchan's movements froze for a second, and the little policeman next to him patted him and asked him if he was all right and if he wanted to take a rest.

Ji Qingchan's pupils shrank suddenly, she clenched the half-wet tissue that had been wiped with tea in her hand, controlled her body that was almost trembling, and said lightly that it was all right.

Then he came out of the monitoring room, with tired eyes, greeted Lu Leng, and said that he would go back to rest first.
