Chapter 376 Returning to That Moment (1)

Without thinking too much, Lin Zhou immediately grabbed Tian Xin with one hand and quickly opened the door with the key with the other hand.

Fortunately, it didn't take much effort this time. I inserted the key and turned it three times, and the door lock made a "click" sound.

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, subconsciously glanced at each other, nodded slightly, and walked out the door at the same time.

Just as he was about to leave, Liang Xiao suddenly called out from behind:

"Lin Zhou——"

Lin Zhou was stunned and stopped in his tracks.

In that split second, Liang Xiao rushed over like crazy and pulled their hands apart. Before they could react, he pushed Tian Xin towards Li Ke.

Then, while everyone was panicking, she opened the door with one hand and pulled the shocked Lin Zhou out of the house with the other.

The door clicked shut again.

This time, the key was taken away by Liang Xiao, and there was no possibility of opening it from the inside...

Tian Xin struggled to get up from the ground with the help of her scraped elbow, only to find that she, Li Ke and Liu Bo were the only three people left in the room.

At this moment, the memory of a certain death suddenly burst through the dam like a flood, and in a flash, it rushed towards her.

She felt all the pores in her body suddenly open up and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.

The past that she had been reluctant to mention for six years finally came to her at this moment, appearing nakedly in front of her in the form of a re-enactment of the scene, and... she had no choice.

Looking at Liu Bo with red eyes and Li Ke approaching her with a sinister smile on his face, she finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"ah--"

After a deafening roar, the room fell silent...

A large crowd of people had already gathered outside the door.

The police had set up a cordon around the house, keeping the people who came after hearing the news 10 meters away.

The police officer in charge of the negotiation was working with the locksmith to try to break the door and shout something inside.

However, when this abandoned brick factory was built, in order to block out noise, they used high-quality solid wood to make the doors. Plus, there were no windows, so no sound could be heard from inside at all.

Zhou Ruilian cried heartbreakingly, disregarding her usual dignity. She rushed to the door again and again to save her son, but Lin Zhenhua grabbed her tightly and held her in his arms. He patted her back like he was coaxing a child and said softly, "Don't worry, your son will be fine."

After all, he is still my own son, even if they are divorced. My own flesh and blood is always my own.

While the police were busy making arrangements and discussing the rescue plan, Lin Zhenhua was also busy. He had someone investigate the whole story on the way here and made some preparations.

If the situation becomes difficult, he is always able to rescue his son before the police.

As for other people, he couldn't care less.

Liang Xiao's parents also heard the news and came over. When they heard that their daughter had colluded with the kidnappers to kidnap Lin Zhou, Liang Qiuye refused to believe it. But when Lin Zhenhua threw the photos in front of him, the Liang family's remaining reputation in the Lin Group was completely shattered.

Even though her daughter was imprisoned at the moment, Liang Qiuye no longer had the face to argue with Lin Zhenhua.

For the benefit of the company, the couple chose to keep silent and just winked at Li Qingning.

Li Qingning had never seen such a scene before. She was so frightened that she dared not breathe, let alone move, for fear that Lin Zhenhua would be upset and take his anger out on her. She simply turned her head away and pretended not to see their gestures.

Everyone here has their own ulterior motives.

The people in Xiaowan Village over there saw a completely different scene.

As soon as Tian Fushun heard about it, he hurried over with Li Aiying.

Zhang Shuai, Li Jing and others also rushed to the place as soon as possible.

Unlike others who panicked, Li Aiying remained quite calm.

She didn't cry or scream, but her eyes were empty and had lost all their luster.

For some reason, from the moment Tian Fushun told her that Xinxin was in trouble, she felt like something was falling from her heart. The aimless fall did not stop, tormenting her mind every minute and every second.

Although she couldn't cry, she kept telling herself in her heart: "Don't cry, nothing will happen."

When her husband died in a mining accident, she cried all her tears. After that, she seemed to stop crying.

When sadness comes from the heart, you can only suppress yourself.

Until Tian Xin's "scream" came from the house.

She saw Lin Zhou and Liang Xiao coming out and was about to rush forward to greet her daughter.

Before she could finish her "Xin——" cry, the heavy wooden door closed again.

In a flash, before she could react, she heard Tian Xin's heart-wrenching scream from the crack of the door.

My daughter has always been calm and would never go crazy for no reason, unless...

She suddenly broke through the cordon without hesitation and threw herself at Lin Zhou and Liang Xiao who had just emerged. Tears and trembling welled up in her at that moment, quickly draining away all her strength.

"Lin...Lin...Lin Zhou——"

She rushed in front of Lin Zhou and grabbed the corner of his clothes with trembling hands: "Xinxin...where is Xinxin..."

"Why didn't Xinxin come out?"

"What on earth is going on...you...you tell me..."

The people around were startled and rushed over to pull her.

Lin Zhou was also confused when Liang Xiao pulled him out. At this moment, when he saw Zhou Ruilian crying towards him and Li Aiying kneeling on the ground in excitement, he realized that his hands were empty.

Tian Xin... didn't even come out...

Intense fear instantly enveloped him.

"Where's Tian Xin?" He turned around and grabbed Liang Xiao by the collar, shouting, "Where's she? Why didn't she come out?" Liang Xiao was too frightened to speak. He lowered his head and trembled as he said, "I... I don't know... I don't know."

"How could you not know? Just now, clearly..."

"I don't know, I just don't know..." Liang Xiao cried and held his head in tears.

"The key... isn't the key in your hand?" He frantically grabbed Liang Xiao's hand, already speaking incoherently: "Hurry up and open the door——"

However, what’s the use of having the key?

The door was locked from the inside, and the outside was bare without even a handle, let alone a keyhole.

This lock completely blocked Tian Xin's way out and also blocked her way to survival.

Lin Zhou lost all his strength in an instant, as if his whole body was drained of energy. His mind was completely devoid of thoughts, and he could only mechanically bang on the door and shout inside, like a madman.

This look scared everyone around him. Two policemen came up to him to ask what happened, but he ignored them.

The situation suddenly changed, and everyone with their own thoughts lost their calmness.

When Liang Qiuye and his wife saw their daughter coming out safe and sound, they didn't care about anything else and pulled their daughter away with one hand.

"Lao Lin, look, Xiao Zhou and Xiao Xiao are both fine, so let's take her back first. It's been such a big incident, let the child take some time off, and you guys take care of Xiao Zhou as well..."

"You fart..."

Before he could finish his words, a heavy punch suddenly came from the side and landed on Liang Qiuye's face.

"Your daughter is out, your son is out too. You don't care about other people's lives, right?"

Zhang Shuai grabbed Liang Qiuye by the collar, and his angry eyes started from him, then swept towards Lin Zhenhua, Li Qingning, Liang Xiao, and finally fell on Lin Zhou.

"You guys are fucking human? Huh? You guys are so rich and powerful that you can just take our lives and make fun of us, right?"

"Is this the game you guys play?" He roared, his face and eyes red as if blood was dripping out.

Li Jing and others nearby quickly pulled him away.

Liang Qiuye was too lazy to argue with him. She snorted coldly, said hello to Lin Zhenhua, and took her daughter outside the cordon.

The police wanted to ask Liang Xiao and Lin Zhou about what happened inside, but the scene before them was a mess.

Lin Zhou banged on the door and shouted, crying blood, regardless of everything.

Behind him, Zhou Ruilian cried and pulled him to comfort him.

Li Aiying collapsed on the ground, pulling at the corner of his clothes and crying as if she was about to faint. A group of people surrounded her, frowning and looking around.

Zhang Shuai raised his fist and wanted to hit him, but in the end he could only grit his teeth and join him in banging on the door and shouting inside.

This scene lasted only a few minutes before the police quickly pulled the crowd apart and cordoned off the area once again.
