After being seized by the pillow man

The humidifier was turned on in the lounge, and it felt a little foggy. The two of them got close and could feel the warmth of each other. It was also in such a close distance that Xi Han could faintly hear Yin Yan's voice on the phone. The sound from the side.

The anxiety that couldn't be concealed under the utmost calmness, like ants standing on a hot pot, has nowhere to go.

Seeing Yin Yansheng say a few times to hang up the phone, Xi Han asked, "What's wrong?"

Yin Yansheng didn't look very well, he stood up and walked outside: "My step-sister is missing." It was a mess over there, and everyone was looking for the lost child.

Li Wenjuan has no other choice now, speaking in a pleading tone, hoping that he can help find it.

Ancheng is so big, it is possible for a child to go anywhere, and what's more, there will be some extreme cases, such as child abduction and trafficking.

Xi Han said, "Did you call the police? Is it possible that it was kidnapping and ransom?"

Yin Yansheng: "I don't know if I called the police, but the possibility of being kidnapped is not high. They are all working-class families."

Li Wenjuan and Yin's father are both working class, and they haven't acquired any new real estate in the past few years. If there is a possibility of being targeted, it is only the money in the card he gave that day.

But Yin Yansheng quickly ruled out this possibility. There was no one on the road that day, and they also knew about the fact that their wealth was not exposed, and they didn't know how to make a big noise.

Yin Yansheng said: "Xi Han, I'll help you find it."

He was also lost once, and now helping to find her is repaying Li Wenjuan's affection.

It is now afternoon, and the days are short in winter, and it will be dark in a few hours.

Xi Han glanced at the sky outside the window and said, "Let's go, I'll go too." It might be because of what happened when the two of them drove back that day, he was always worried about letting Yin Yansheng drive alone.

Yin Yansheng didn't refuse, and the two took the elevator to the underground garage together.

Now it's time to get off work, and the traffic on the road has obviously increased. Yin Yansheng is sitting in the co-pilot, and the scene around the car is rapidly reversing.

The place where Li Wenjuan and Yin's father live belongs to the old city, and there are train tracks next to it, and the surrounding routes extend in all directions, like a spread out spider web. In terms of Yin Duo, there are three different routes from school to home, and any of them is possible.

It took almost an hour and a half from the company to Yin Duo's house, and the sky was dark when we arrived. This is a family unit, and there is no security in the community.

As soon as he stopped the car, Yin Yansheng saw Grandma Yin.

Wearing a padded jacket, she lingered at the gate of the community, not daring to go far, just pacing back and forth, her face full of anxiety.

After Yin Yansheng got off the car, he walked over by himself. He glanced at Grandma Yin's white hair, and took him to a shelter aside: "Grandma, you go back first and stay at home. Auntie called me just now. We They're all looking for it."

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the old man was standing in the wind, and Yin Yansheng was afraid that she would not be able to take it anymore. Not to mention that Yin Duo hadn't been found yet, Grandma Yin fell ill again. At that time, there was no one to take care of her.

Grandma Yin didn't expect her grandson to get out of the car, and when she heard that Li Wenjuan was calling, she was stunned for a moment before she said, "Okay, okay, you are a good boy."

Her wrinkled face was no longer red from the cold, and her hands were not warm, she just looked at Yin Yansheng and said: "They won't let me help you find it, they said that they are afraid that Yin Duo won't be able to enter you when she comes back later, so let me go again." Stay at home."

"But..." Grandma Yin stroked her forehead and said, "How can I sit at home, I just want to come here to have a look, maybe Yin Duo will come back by herself in a while."

Yin Yansheng said a few words of relief, got into the car by himself, and chose a different direction from Li Wenjuan to look for it.

Xi Han restarted the car. He watched Yin Yansheng fasten his seat belt, and then started the car: "I'll drive slowly, you watch on the road."

Yin Yan said 'um'.He said: "That person was my grandma just now, and grandpa passed away, she probably moved here to live with them."

Xi Han took a look at this friend, but saw that his brows and eyes were calm, he lost the softness in front of Grandma Yin, and his tone was also flat when he spoke, a little better than strangers, and he didn't have any intention of intimacy.

He could guess how much it was in his heart, and he asked without saying anything, "Is Yin Duo right, how old is it?"

Yin Yansheng recalled for a while and said: "It seems to be in the second grade of elementary school. She has long hair and is quite thin. She should be wearing a black and yellow school uniform now."

Xi Han slowed down the speed of the car.

This place is close to the train track, and occasionally the sound of a train passing by can be heard, from far to near, as if the ground is shaking.

Searching aimlessly, when he sees a child carrying a schoolbag by chance, Xi Han will take a look twice, and sometimes ask the people around him to take a look, but they don't.

The car set off from their yard and traveled a total of five or six kilometers, that is, ten minutes. The two looked back and forth, when Yin Yansheng's phone rang suddenly, and it was Li Wenjuan who was calling.

The voice over there was grateful, saying that Yin Duo had found it, and couldn't stop saying thank you.

Xi Han knocked on the steering wheel, and glanced at Yin Yansheng: "Found it?"

Yin Yansheng put the phone back in his pocket: "Well, I found it." It was a false alarm, what a good word, the child didn't lose it.

Xi Han's voice was also very relaxed: "Then go back now?"

"Then go back."

The car returned along the same road, and when it passed by the community just now, it found that Grandma Yin was still standing there. Yin Yansheng was about to say hello and leave, but saw a car approaching, a black Volkswagen with its headlights flashing, and then Three people came down from above.

Father Yin, Li Wenjuan and Yin Duo.

Walking in the darkness, Father Yin's voice could be heard under the dim streetlight, with a bit of irritability and impatience: "Who told you to go? You don't know how long my mother and I have been looking for you, why are you so ignorant?" ?!"

As he spoke, he became angry again, with the rough voice of a middle-aged man, echoing at the gate of this silent community.

His voice was like a bullet passing through the glass, and it had already passed through, leaving dense cracks on the glass.

Li Wenjuan held her daughter's hand in silence, and hurried over when she saw Yin Yan's voice: "Thank you very much today, if it wasn't for your help, we wouldn't have found Yin Duo so quickly."

Her face was covered with a layer of tiredness, the corners of her brows and eyes could not hide the exhaustion, but now she cheered up and thanked Yin Yansheng.

Li Wenjuan said to Yin Duo: "Say thank you to brother."

Yin Yansheng looked at Yin Duo under the street lamp. The thin little girl kept her head down, and her shadow was stretched long on the ground. After hearing what her mother said, she whispered, "Thank you brother."

His voice was very dry, the kind of hoarse voice after crying, which was very different from the last time he saw it.

Yin Yansheng said it's okay.

At this moment, Father Yin spoke again, and shouted loudly at Yin Duo: "Why are you crying? It's okay for you to walk out without saying a word? You are so courageous, and you have learned to run away from home!"

Yin Duo kept her head down, and then she raised her head and said: "I didn't run away from home, I went out to find my dog."

Her voice was not loud, accompanied by choking and sobbing, her voice was broken and out of tune in the end, with a faint strange accent.

It was a sound made after being too sad, as if the muscles in the throat were out of control.

Yin Yan's voice stopped, and he stopped when he was about to leave.He couldn't hear any emotion and asked, "What's going on, what's wrong with your dog?"

Yin Duo's face was full of tears, big ones rolled down: "My dog... lost."

Tears overflowed from the eyes, wet the thick eyelashes, and slid down her chin. She cried until her eyes were swollen: "I came back from school today, and it... disappeared."

"My dad said he thought it was noisy, and said it barks at night..." She cried so hard that she said with misty eyes: "It doesn't, it seldom barks at night..." She seemed to be misunderstood, and no matter how she explained it, others couldn't stop , the kind of grievance that has nowhere to be released spread out, and in the end he just said over and over again: "It's really good, it rarely barks."

Father Yin was stunned when he saw Yin Yan's voice, and then looked at Yin Duo, with a bit of embarrassment after his family's ugliness was publicized: "It barks at night, and the neighbors have said it several times."

"Our family is so big, it's so noisy that no one can sleep, your mother and I have to go to work during the day, your brother has to go to school, besides, you have to think about your grandma, the dog is so noisy that your grandma can't sleep. "

This is obviously not the first time. Yin Duo covered his face and said: "My classmate loves dogs very much. She said that she can give it to her. We can give the dog to her. Just wait for a few days..."

"Give it to your classmate? What can she say? You are just such an older child who can count on words, she is deceiving you." He seemed to have found a backbone, a reason to convince himself, with a vivid tone Yang Gao: "Why are you so unfilial, can you think for others, don't be so selfish."

Yin Duo was speechless. She was so young and couldn't stand a sentence of 'selfishness' and 'not filial piety' that was as heavy as a mountain, and she couldn't convince her father. All she could do was cry.

Yin Yan's eyes darkened, he didn't know what he thought of, an inexplicable chill swelled all over his body, he just looked at Father Yin and said coldly: "Where is the dog?"

Father Yin was about to say how he knew, but he saw a pair of eyes.

It was dark and dark, as cold as an ice cellar, as if he could see all his lies and excuses clearly, and he had nowhere to hide under that sight.

The winter wind seemed to gather in his eyes, and it was so cold that Father Yin felt inexplicably weak, and changed his original words abruptly: "I put it in a bag and walked north, and put it in front of an electric pole. .”

Li Wenjuan was stunned, she said in disbelief: "How could you throw away Dodo's dog?"

Father Yin was stared at by those eyes and looked away: "I'm not... for our mother." Standing beside Grandma Yin, he seemed to have gained a shield and gained some confidence: "Can that dog compare with Mom? ? Can animals compare with humans? There has been no such reason since ancient times!"

Yin Yansheng looked at him coldly. There was neither sadness nor joy in his eyes, and his emotions were extremely indifferent, as if he was watching a clown performing poorly.

Yin Yansheng looked down at Yin Duo who was crying in front of him: "Is it true that your classmate is willing to raise you?"

Yin Duo kept nodding: "Really, she said she would."

Yin Yan said: "Then I'll take you to find your dog. If you can find it, you can give it to your classmate. If you can't find it..." He stopped here, clenched his fingertips for a moment and then Let go, and said without emotion: "If you can't find it, forget it."

Yin Duo nodded in response.

Xi Han lit a cigarette in the car, he could see the scene outside through the car window, two people with long shadows came, like two fallen leaves under the street lamp.

It didn't fall to the ground, it didn't grow on a tree, it just swirled like that in the air, and it didn't know where it was going to fall.

The car door was opened, and Yin Duo sat on the back seat.

Xi Han took a look through the car interior mirror. The little girl had long hair and the tears were still wet on her face. She called 'Uncle' in a low voice and fastened her seat belt by herself, without saying a word.

He stubbed out the cigarette and looked at Yin Yansheng who had just sat down: "Little friend, where are we going?"

Yin Yansheng said: "Yin Duo's dog is lost, I want to help find it."

Xi Han was keenly aware that the mood of the people around him was not right, so he lowered his eyes and started the car.

The street lamps outside the car window were on, and the lamps seemed to be connected in a line. A little light from the black night was swallowed up again after a while.

Yin Yansheng closed his eyes.

He used to go this way, many years ago.

Walking from one street lamp to another, I heard the sound of a train approaching, whizzing past with a sharp sound, and then there was another silence.

Amidst the metal sound of those railroad tracks colliding, he walked forward alone, the light behind him was swallowed up in the darkness, he couldn't see anything after walking, and the road ahead was vast and his back was also empty.

He hears cats meowing all the time.

It seemed to be right in front, one after another, calling softly.

I always feel that if I look for it again... I will find it.
