Chapter 521 Gu Xiaoxi, Save Me
Gu Xiaoxi was shocked and quickly replied to Lu Jiansen, "Missing? Why did you suddenly report him missing?"
Haven’t you been away from home for a few days to meet guests?
Why report missing at this time?
"I heard that the Xie family couldn't contact him, and the friends that Mr. Xie mentioned to others have never seen him. However, I have a new clue. When Mr. Xie was still in the army, he did save several people who were washed away by the flood, one of whom was named Gu."
"Xiaoxi, I will not go back to Huaicheng tonight. I want to interrogate Xie Zhu and Old Madam Xie in a reasonable way before they disappear."
Gu Xiaoxi immediately understood what Lu Jiansen meant. He was worried that these people disappeared just to avoid some truth and hide it.
"Then be careful!" Gu Xiaoxi couldn't help but remind Lu Jiansen who was sitting on the other side of the computer.
"Don't worry, go to bed early at night and I will tell you when there is news." Lu Jiansen replied and said nothing more.
Gu Xiaoxi's mood became a little complicated.
If Mr. Xie's disappearance was to avoid the truth, what about Gu Xinli?
She took the money and disappeared. Could it be that she knew some secret and was murdered because of it?
Just when Gu Xiaoxi was lost in thought, Gu Yilan suddenly came over and knocked on the door.
"Xiaoxi, there's a kid at the door who wants to see you."
"Child?" Gu Xiaoxi was a little puzzled, but still went downstairs immediately.
When she saw the ragged little boy, about six or seven years old, standing at the door of her house, she asked in surprise, "Are you looking for me?"
The little boy looked at Gu Xiaoxi timidly, "You...are you Gu Xiaoxi?"
Gu Xiaoxi nodded. "Yes. I am Gu Xiaoxi. Who asked you to come to me?"
The little boy nodded and took out a crumpled newspaper from his pocket and handed it to her. "This is something a woman who lives at the end of our village asked me to give you."
Gu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, then immediately took the dirty newspaper.
The little boy gave the things to Gu Xiaoxi and was about to leave, but Gu Xiaoxi quickly called him, "Little friend, wait a moment."
As she spoke, she put her hand in her pocket, took out a few candies from the space and handed them to him, "This is to thank you. Who is the woman you are talking about? What is her name?"
Gu Xiaoxi asked as he opened a crumpled newspaper.
The newspaper was very dirty, with a few words written in blood on it: "Gu Xiaoxi, save me. Li."
Gu Xiaoxi narrowed his eyes slightly. Was this written by Gu Xinli?
The little boy held the candy in his hand and whispered, "I don't know that woman. She is the new wife of Shi Xiazi in our village. She is paralyzed. I have only seen her once."
Gu Xiaoxi took a deep breath. Did Gu Xinli become paralyzed?
"Then can you tell me where your home is? I'll take you back."
"Our village is far away. It took me a whole day to get here." The little boy didn't say that if the woman hadn't given him five dollars, he wouldn't have come to deliver the letter to her!
"It's okay, I'll take you back on my bike." Gu Xiaoxi decided to go and see for himself.
"Sister Xiaoxi, I'll go with you." Yu Chengshuang also came out of the house, ready to go together.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, went back to the house and said something to her grandfather, then she and Yuchengshuang rode on the energy bike, took the little boy with them and left.
The little boy's home is in a rural village at the northernmost part of Dagongqiao Town, Huaicheng. Due to the inconvenient transportation and many twists and turns, it is indeed very far away.
However, since Gu Xiaoxi and his friends had modified their bicycles and knew the way, they arrived in an hour.
The little boy pointed to a mud house at the end of the village, leaning against the hillside, and said, "That's it."
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, gave the little boy a bag of White Rabbit milk candy, and then went to the adobe house with Yucheng.
By this time it was already dark, and the adobe house was pitch black. The door was tightly closed, but there was no light.
It sounded very quiet inside, as if no one was there.
Gu Xiaoxi used the life trace detection technique to sense it and found that there was indeed no one inside.
After hesitating for a moment, she used a little force and pushed the wooden door open.
Yu Chengshuang had already turned on a solar flashlight and took a quick look around the house.
The house is an old-fashioned country house with simple furniture and a heavy smell of smoke.
Looking at the room on the east side, there was only one bed with the quilt crumpled into a mess. The shoes on the floor were scattered here and there, and it looked like someone had walked in a hurry.
Gu Xiaoxi was familiar with Gu Xinli, so she used the breath tracking technique to extract the breath in the house, and soon she confirmed that Gu Xinli had indeed appeared here.
Moreover, someone was here about an hour ago.
She locked onto the direction of the breath and immediately turned around and walked out.
Yu Chengshuang also helped to close the door and followed Sister Xiaoxi.
The two walked along the path behind the house for a while and saw a cowshed.
There are people living in the cowshed, but Gu Xinli's presence has disappeared here.
As Gu Xiaoxi and Yu Chengshuang approached, a hunchbacked old man immediately came over and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"Excuse me, is Blind Shi here?" Gu Xiaoxi asked politely, but she was actually using the life trace detection technique to check the people in the cowshed.
The old man shook his head. "If you want to find someone in the village, you should go to the village chief. We are steakhouses here, and there are some bad people here."
Gu Xiaoxi did not ask to find the village chief, but asked: "How many people are there in your cowshed?"
The old man glanced at her and whispered, "There are six people in total."
Gu Xiaoxi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you sure there are six people?"
She felt seven living beings in here.
"There are six people." The old man said with certainty.
"Yes. We were sent by the Public Security Bureau to conduct an investigation. Since we are here, let's go in and take a look!"
After saying this, Gu Xiaoxi went straight into the cowshed.
The old man wanted to stop him, but Yu Chengshuang stopped him first.
"Since the people living in the bullpen are the ones who made mistakes, then you should stay outside if you don't want to make mistakes again. If you stop us, you will be beaten!"
He has been in Blue Star for a long time and knows something about the social conditions here.
He knew exactly who lived in the cowshed.
The old man frowned, but did not resist.
The moment Gu Xiaoxi walked into the cowshed, he immediately took out two masks from his pocket, put one on himself, and gave one to Yu Chengshuang.
The cowshed is really not a good place. Even though there are people living there, it still smells terrible. It's even worse now that it's hot.
When she entered, she saw two persons sleeping in the room, two persons cooking dinner, and a woman sewing.
When they saw Gu Xiaoxi and his friends coming in, the woman who was sewing clothes looked very nervous, while the person who was cooking dinner was curious.
The person who was sleeping remained motionless, as if he was unaware that a stranger had come.
Gu Xiaoxi glanced at Yu Chengshuang, who took a quick step forward and directly lifted their quilts.
