Chapter 17 The Lost Child

After Cui Fangzhi got off work, he saw Lin Qian waiting at the door of the dormitory building. Cui Fangzhi pretended not to see him and walked straight to the school gate.

Lin Qian caught up and said, "What's the matter? Don't you give me face like this? I even invited you in person, why don't you go?"

"I won't go, I'm afraid of her"

"No, why are you afraid of her? She is really nice. You can go to her house to know why she is like this. Go and see? Can you leave without eating?"

"Just take a look and go." Cui Fangzhi looked at Lin Qian.

Lin Qian nodded: "When did I ever lie to you?"

Don't you often lie to me?

Cui Fangzhi followed Lin Qian to Granny Li's house. To be honest, Cui Fangzhi regretted it after following Lin Qian for a while. Seeing this, Lin Qian wanted to play the emotional card to forgive Granny Li.

The place where Granny Li lived was not on the main street, but in the direction of the south of the town. She walked along a gravel road for more than five minutes, then turned down a gravel road with a steep slope, and there was a single hut.

Lin Qian pointed to the hut and said, "This is it."

"Why does she live here alone? I think the people in the town are quite rich, why is the place where she lives in such a dilapidated place?" Cui Fangzhi asked while carefully looking at the road under his feet.

"Do you still remember Uncle Li?" Lin Qian took Cui Fangzhi's hand, "Be careful of slippery feet."

"She also has a... hey, unfilial son?" Cui Fangzhi really slipped under his feet.Startled him.

Lin Qian put his arms around his waist and said with a smile, "I'll carry you?"

Cui Fangzhi looked at the hut, it was only about ten meters away, forget it.

"Her son works outside the home all the year round. No matter how old Meimei is, he hasn't come back for many years. Granny Li has had a hard time these years. Be careful."

The two of them finally reached the intersection of the hut, when suddenly a big yellow dog barked at them, Cui Fangzhi turned around and ran away in fright, Lin Qian grabbed him and smiled, "Ms. Cui, it's okay, I'm here."

"What the hell! It did it on purpose, it didn't attack until we got close, scheming dog!" Cui Fangzhi stared, terrified.

Lin Qian couldn't help but laugh when he looked at him, Cui Fangzhi said angrily, "Laugh again and I'm leaving!"

"Farewell, Meimei!" Lin Qian grabbed Cui Fangzhi and shouted towards the hut.

Meimei ran out of the house with her ponytail tied, and immediately ran back into the house when she saw Cui Fangzhi.

"Hey, what do you mean?" Cui Fangzhi pointed at Meimei.

After a while, Granny Li came out, wearing an apron, wiped her hands on the apron and said with a smile: "Xiao Lin, Teacher Cui, please hurry up, Rhubarb, don't bark, this is a distinguished guest"

……

The two of them followed Granny Li into the room. Before entering the room, Lin Qian held Cui Fangzhi and whispered, "You need to pay attention to your expressions later on."

Cui Fangzhi was about to ask why, but Lin Qian had already followed Granny Li into the house, so Cui Fangzhi had no choice but to follow in a daze.

The first room to enter the house should be the hall. There is a mud stove right in front of it. There is a wooden ladder next to it. The attic is on top. Cui Fangzhi took a look. There are strands of dead grass falling, won't they attract mice?

There should be a hall in the middle, with wooden tables and benches in a mess, and it looks very old, some of them are missing arms and legs.

The last room should be a bedroom, with only one bed, and the bedding and sheets are wrapped together, which is dirty and torn. There is a wooden wardrobe, which is the same age as the antique stool in Cui Fangzhi's dormitory.

Cui Fangzhi was stunned and was about to say something when Lin Qian squeezed his fingers. Cui Fangzhi instantly understood that Granny Li must not feel that they dislike her or look down on her. Poor people's self-esteem is often both strong and fragile of.

Granny Li was cooking vegetables on the mud stove in the first room, coughing uncontrollably due to the fumes, and coughing on the vegetables, Cui Fangzhi looked at Lin Qian begging for help, Brother Qian, let's go.

Lin Qian stroked the back of Cui Fangzhi's hand, and smiled at Granny Li, "Grandma Li, don't cook too much, just eat whatever you want."

"It's okay, Xiaolin, you have been here several times, but Teacher Cui is the first one, and I offended Teacher Cui, so I have to satisfy Teacher Cui anyway."

"It's okay, actually I... I'm not angry anymore" Cui Fangzhi said, I really can't eat, don't waste it.

Granny Li put the fried dishes aside, stretched her neck and shouted, "Meimei, move the table here, it's time to eat!"

Cui Fangzhi looked around, wouldn't he just eat here?There is also the stool of an unknown creature on the ground.

"Just express, I'll buy vegetables and cook for you later," Lin Qian whispered into Cui Fangzhi's ear.

After a while, Meimei carried two stools into the room, and now she put down the frizzy ponytail just now, and her long black hair hung down her shoulders, which was quite beautiful.Meimei put the stool away, took a peek at Cui Fangzhi, turned her head shyly and went out.

Cui Fangzhi: "..." What the hell?

Lin Qian snickered aside, Cui Fangzhi squeezed Lin Qian's butt and whispered, "Don't laugh."

After Granny Li finished frying all the dishes, she went to the hall to carry a table by herself. Lin Qian saw her and went to help, but Cui Fangzhi who was beside her had a double chin in shock. This old man is not bad at all.

After finally getting it right, dinner is finally ready.Cui Fangzhi swallowed his saliva as he looked at the unknown dish, which was so dark that he couldn't tell its original appearance.

Lin Qian smiled, took a bite with his chopsticks, and immediately praised: "Grandma Li's craftsmanship is really good, and the taste is getting better and better. I must come to learn from you someday."

Don't, if you follow her example, I will go on a hunger strike!

Lin Qian picked up a piece of meat, suspected to be meat, put it in Cui Fangzhi's bowl, and said, "Taste it"

Cui Fangzhi picked up the chopsticks, picked up the meat tremblingly, and omitted [-] words in his inner monologue, which was harder to drink than the poisonous wine bestowed by the ancient emperors.

Cui Fangzhi chewed it twice, hey, it's delicious and very fragrant.

Granny Li asked expectantly: "How is it? Do you agree?"

Cui Fangzhi nodded: "It's delicious, it's delicious."

Granny Li laughed when she heard this, and said, "Eat more if it tastes good, I'm afraid you will dislike the dishes made by my old lady."

"No, it's really delicious" is the truth.

On the way back from Granny Li's house, Cui Fangzhi kept looking at Lin Qian. When he reached the corner of the intersection, Lin Qian turned around and looked at Cui Fangzhi and said, "Hurry up if you want to cuddle, kiss, touch, I know Now the image in your heart is noble and great, flawless and pure"

Cui Fangzhi laughed, hugged Lin Qian lightly and said, "I'm really impressed by the noble character of Police Officer Lin, and now I wish I could dedicate myself to you immediately."

Lin Qian: "..." As a teacher, can you say something profound.However, I like it!

Along the way, Lin Qian was planning how to do a good job in tonight's turnaround. When he walked to the intersection of the new block, the phone rang in his pocket at an untimely time. Lin Qian frowned. The turnaround was in vain?

Yes, the turnaround was in vain. Wen Tao said on the phone that Mrs. Wang's child was lost, and now an emergency meeting was being held in the institute, and Lin Qian was asked to go and have a look.

Lin Qian hung up the phone, said a few words to Cui Fangzhi, and then ran into the office. Cui Fangzhi looked at Lin Qian's back and said he should kiss him goodnight.

When Lin Qian arrived in the meeting room, everyone looked solemn. Director Wu saw Lin Qian, pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit down, Wen Tao, and explain the matter in detail."

"According to Mrs. Wang, this morning she took her son Deng Wei, the lost child, to the store to open the door. After opening the door, she went into the back kitchen to prepare breakfast. Ask Deng Wei to play in the store by herself. When she put the buns on the pot, she didn’t see Deng Wei when she came out. At that time, the sky was already bright and there were already people on the road. She stood at the door of the store and yelled twice. At this time, there happened to be customers When she came to have breakfast, she didn't care, she was busy with business, and when she was almost busy, she came out to look for Deng Wei, but she couldn't find him, and Deng Wei hadn't seen him for four hours at this time."

"Didn't she hear Deng Wei talking to strangers when she was in the back kitchen?" Li Kun asked.

"No, it's the back kitchen, that is, it's separated by a door. It stands to reason that Mrs. Wang can hear any noises from Deng Wei." Wen Tao analyzed.

"It's not full light, and there are no pedestrians on the road. It is impossible for Deng Wei, a child under three years old, to go out to play by himself unless there is something that attracts him." Lin Qian said with a frown.

"There are so many things that can attract a three-year-old child," Xiao Jiu said.

"When did the second sister-in-law Wang come to report the case?" Lin Qian asked.

"When she searched around and found no one, she called Deng Wei's grandma and said she hadn't gone back, so she became anxious, closed the store and searched for more than two hours on the street with Deng Wei's grandma, but she couldn't find it. Come to the police station to call the police”

"That is to say, people came to call the police around [-]:[-] noon. Why did you start looking for someone now?" Director Wu was very angry as he patted the table.

Wen Tao rubbed his nose and didn't speak. Xiao Jiu looked at Wen Tao and said, "After Taozi and I got to know the situation, we split up immediately. Taozi went door-to-door asking questions in the town, and I asked Second Sister-in-law Wang Call all the relatives and ask them until they get off work."

"Why didn't you notify me!? Even if I'm not here, Lin Qian should be notified!"

"Brother Qian is on the morning shift. I think he looks very tired, so I plan to find out with Taozi first." Xiao Jiuyue said that the more confident he was, the less confident he was.

"The higher-ups have just issued documents to strengthen law and order and strengthen patrols. My National Day report hasn't been delivered yet, so let me do this!" Director Wu panted heavily, his face livid.

"Well, let's work hard tonight, so don't rest. Divide into five groups, with two people in each group, and go to each village to ask questions. It's been a long time..." Lin Qian frowned, "Anyway, we must be careful. Investigate, all clues must not be let go."

"Wu Suo, I have to ask the city to help you," Lin Qian said to Director Wu.

Director Wu nodded, stood up, slapped the table and shouted, "Not yet!"

Everyone got up immediately, went out quickly, and drove off.

Lin Qian and Li Kun went to Shanyan Village in a group. This village was at the junction of the city and the province. If the traffickers were going out of the province or into the city, the chances of being seen by villagers were higher.

It has been a day, if it is really abducted, the chance of finding it is too small. For human traffickers, this is simply a godsend opportunity. The road is unimpeded, and the child may have changed hands by now.

"Hey!" Lin Qian exhaled a smoke ring and sighed.

Li Kun looked at him and asked, "Brother Qian, is there nothing else?"

"It's hard, this Grandma Deng is old and bereaved her son, and keeping such a grandson is a treasure. I don't know if I can handle this accident." Lin Qian's expression was rarely serious.

Li Kun was silent, and drove the car very fast.

Cui Fangzhi was lying on the bed in the dormitory, holding the phone in his hand and turning it around. Lin Qian should be busy at this time. Cui Fangzhi swiped the phone open, looked at Lin Qian's number, and finally just threw the phone aside and turned off the light , eyes wide open in the dark, tomorrow I must take a photo of Lin Qian and put it on my phone, it's good to look at the photo when I miss him.

Lin Qian was sitting on a chair, tapping his fingers rhythmically on the table. Director Wu was pacing up and down with his hands behind his back. It looked like a room full of people waiting in line to go to the bathroom.

Nothing was found last night, this morning Grandma Deng came to the station to wait, seeing a group of people come back in disgrace, she covered her mouth and cried immediately, while Mrs. Wang's sister-in-law cried along with her, which made the already depressed policeman even more guilty, especially on duty Xiao Jiu and Wen Tao almost cried together.In the end, Director Wu sent the two of them away after talking about everything.

"Is there any news from the city? Wu Suo" Lin Qian looked up at Director Wu.

Director Wu shook his head: "With so many routes, it will take some time to call up all the surveillance videos."

"I'll take Wen Tao to the city and wait. You wait for news at the office." Lin Qian stood up and said.

Director Wu nodded.It had no choice but to be like this.

Lin Qian walked to the door and saw Cui Fangzhi standing aside, pointing his phone at him.Lin Qian smiled, and was about to walk over when Cui Fangzhi immediately said, "Don't move."

Lin Qian stood obediently, and waited until Cui Fangzhi made an OK gesture before walking over and asking, "Is he handsome?"

"I'm so handsome." Cui Fangzhi saved the picture and handed it to Lin Qian.

Lin Qian looked at it and said with a smile, "You're so handsome."

"Is it because you didn't wash your face last night? It's so thick." Cui Fangzhi took the opportunity to wrap his arms around Lin Qian's waist.

Lin Qian squeezed Cui Fangzhi's fingers and said, "Fang Fang, I have to go."

"En." Cui Fangzhi nodded.
