"Where's Lao Zhang?" Brother Hai stood at the street corner, holding a bottle of mineral water.

The woman gripped the phone tightly and replied, "He's coming by subway, there are still three stops."

"What time do you still take the subway? Can't you take a taxi?" Hai Ge said.

"How expensive." The woman said, "I think the starting price here is 13 yuan, which is really scary."

Brother Hai sat down with the anti-collision ball on the side of the road, and waited patiently.

Time passed by every minute, and the spacious street was full of cars. The woman stood on the side of the road and looked at it for a while, and said, "It's not much more prosperous than Zhengzhou."

"That's right, the alley is full of dilapidated bungalows." The man said, "I thought this side was full of high-rise buildings."

"Stupid, that's a courtyard house in the alley." Hai Ge said, "Any one square meter is 10,000+." He took out a pack of cigarettes, took out one, and heard a voice behind him: "No smoking!" Said impatiently: "Can you control it?"

A Beijing uncle in sweatshirt pointed to the no-smoking sign posted on the bus stop: "Can't you see such a big word? It's [-] for a smoke."

"Tch." Hai Ge put the cigarette back into the case and put it in his pocket.

The woman patted Brother Hai on the shoulder and said, "Lao Zhang is here." She jumped up and waved to the middle-aged man looking around on the other side of the road, "Daddy, here!"

Zhang Qiang, a middle-aged man, crossed the road. He carried a bag of sesame seed cakes and distributed them to his wife Chen Xiaohui, his brother-in-law Chen Shengyong, and Brother Hai, saying, "I just bought them, and they are still warm."

"Thank you." Another reason Hai Ge was willing to help the family was Zhang Qiang.

Zhang Qiang is a good man, honest and honest, with few words. He only knows how to work hard and earn money to support his family. He is a good husband in the traditional sense. His biggest shortcoming is that he has no independent opinions.He listens to his mother, his wife, and even his brother-in-law, and never expresses his opinion. He is like a piece of wood in the ups and downs of the world, and it is difficult to define his thoughts.

Or he has no idea at all, like a robot, walking through his life according to a fixed program.

Zhang Qiang bought five sesame seed cakes, he ate one by himself, and put the remaining one in his bag.

Chen Xiaohui said, "Why did you buy an extra one?"

"For the male." Zhang Qiang said.

"Wangnan doesn't care about these cheap biscuits." Chen Shengyong said, "They fly to high branches to make phoenixes."

Brother Hai looked down on Chen Shengyong's jealous face the most. He said, "If you don't talk, no one will think you are dumb." He handed Zhang Qiang an unopened bottle of mineral water, "Take a sip to moisten your throat."

"Thank you." Zhang Qiang said.

"Let's go to the gate of Yangmei." Haige said.

"Isn't Wang Nan at the Central University of Finance and Economics?" Chen Xiaohui asked.

"She just left, so I guess she went to find her brother." Hai Ge stared at the phone screen and kept typing, "I happened to see the brother and sister together, how lively." He clicked on the photo sent by the informant, muttering softly, " Why are there so many reporters all of a sudden." He turned off his phone and urged, "Let's go quickly, there are many people during the lunch break, and there will be no one after class."

Zhang Qiang asked, "Do you want to go by subway?"

"Take the subway, take a taxi." Hai Ge said, he raised his hand to hail a taxi, opened the co-pilot's door and got in, "At the entrance of Yangmei, thank you."

The other three filed in and sat in the back row. Brother Hai explained: "After seeing them, you are not allowed to speak, Yongzi, not even a single word. If you dare to speak out, don't blame me for slapping you."

Chen Shengyong gave a perfunctory "Yes" without refuting.

"Sister Xian." Ke Yici called Ren Xian, "Have you seen Ni Fangli? I have something to do with her."

"The phone room, I just passed by and saw her on the phone." Ren Xian pointed in the direction, "Over there."

"Okay." Ke Yici followed Ren Xian's directions to the door of the phone booth and opened the glass door. Ni Fangli looked up at him. She said to the person on the phone, "Wait a minute." She put down the phone and asked : "What's wrong?"

"Follow me to Central America, the case we are following is about to make great progress." Ke Yici said.

Ni Fangli picked up her mobile phone and said to the person on the other end of the line: "Let's talk about this matter tomorrow. I have an urgent matter to deal with right now. I'm sorry." She put the phone in her pocket and followed Ke Yici, "What's the progress? ?”

"Rui Xue's parents have come to Beijing, and I got news that they may go to see Rui Xue at noon." Ke Yici said, "Call your camera, let's go."

"Why do we go to Yangmei if we are looking for Ruixue?" Ni Fangli asked.

"Because Ruixue is in Central America now, her parents must have got the news." Ke Yici said, "It's 12:30, and I should be there by [-]:[-]." He dialed Wen Ling's number and waited. Pick up the phone.

Wen Ling pressed the answer button, and Ke Yici's voice came out of the receiver: "Xiao Yu, have you seen your sister?"

"No." Wen Ling said.

"Don't leave at school, I'll pick you up right away," Ke Yici said.

"Hmm." Wen Ling asked stammeringly, "What, what?"

"You'll know when you see me." Ke Yici said, "Have you eaten yet?"

Ni Fangli squinted at Ke Yici, who was in the passenger seat, turned the steering wheel and merged into the traffic.

Ke Yici was immersed in the phone, asking questions on his own, and was satisfied when he got a one or two-word answer from the other party.Wen Ling sat on a bench in the shade with his schoolbag on his back, and the autumn wind blew through the hair on his forehead.It was inconvenient to go out during this time, and there was no chance to trim his hair. His half-length hair hung down on his shoulders. Before he went out, Shi Rong helped him tie it into a small bun with a small black rubber band.After running around all morning, the strands of hair slipped against his cheeks, and he had to pin them behind his ears again and again.

Ke Yici trotted into the campus, and the first thing he saw was Wen Ling, who was restlessly holding a rubber band in his mouth and tied his hair with his hands behind his head, just like a little girl.

"Xiao Yu." Ke Yici stood behind Wen Ling, "I'll help you."

Wen Ling handed him the rubber band and sat up straight.Ke Yici ran his fingers through the thick hair, smoothed out the hair, and tied it into a fluffy hair ball with a rubber band: "Okay." He rubbed Wen Ling's head and messed up the broken hair on the top of his head, "This way Be cute."

Wen Ling subconsciously pinned her drooping hair behind her ears, and Ke Yici squeezed his cheek: "Let's go."

"Go, where?" Wen Ling asked.

Ke Yici glanced at the time displayed on the phone and said, "Did your sister call you?"

Wen Ling nodded, and he gestured [Xiaoxue also told me not to leave the school, what happened? 】

"Don't worry, no matter what happens, I'll be with you." Ke Yici decided to wait for Wen Ruixue to come over. He sat next to Wen Ling, "If someone wants to know your childhood experience of being trafficked, would you like to share it?"

Wen Ling looked at Ke Yici and gestured [Do you want to know?I can tell you. 】

"I mean other people." Ke Yici said, "Reporters, netizens, everyone."

Wen Ling thought for a while, and gestured【Is there any need? 】He took out his tablet, opened the photo album, found the hidden pictures, and showed them to Ke Yici.

There are a total of ten hand-drawn line drafts. There are only layers of red and shades of black in the picture, and there is a little golden as an embellishment.The adventure of two villains, they crossed the river, stepped across the farmland, drenched in heavy rain and exposed to the sun, to catch a golden butterfly.The red villain, the black and gray background, and the thin pencil line draft set off an atmosphere of despair and hope intertwined.

[I am not anyone's savior. 】Wen Ling gestures 【If there is no sister, I might not run away resolutely, she is my spiritual pillar. 】

[The family who bought me treated me very well. 】Wen Ling gestures 【My sister is having a bad time. 】

One was bought to be a young master, the other was bought to be a slave, the situation was very different.

A simple child doesn't understand why the buyer is doing this. When he sees the difficulty, his first thought is to go home.

The family will treat my sister well.

He wants to take his sister home.

"Brother." Wen Ruixue hurried over, "Great, you're fine." She took Wen Ling's hand, "Parents, mom and lawyer are at the door, let's go."

Ke Yici followed Wen Ling every step of the way. There were twenty or thirty reporters, students and passers-by who didn't know the situation gathered outside the school gate.

A middle-aged couple with vicissitudes of life held up a banner [团囡, Mom and Dad will take you home].

The moment Wen Ling and Wen Ruixue stepped out of the school gate, they were surrounded by reporters:

"Hello, are you Wen brothers and sisters?"

"I have a few questions I would like to interview."

"I'm a reporter from the Morning Star Daily, is it convenient to answer a few questions?"

"Good afternoon, friends from the reporters." Shi Rong put his arm around Wen Ruixue's shoulders to prevent her daughter from being bumped by the swarming reporters, and said calmly, "It's hard to talk here, and the traffic is blocked. Let's go to the hotel opposite to talk about this." How's the matter?" She looked at the couple holding the banner and issued an invitation, "These two should come together."
