Chapter 468
Ye Fuyue thought that if she couldn't find Laibao tonight, the news of Laibao's disappearance would definitely spread tomorrow.
So, she said without hiding anything, "Laibao is missing. If you've seen him or have any clues, come to the bun shop and tell me. Even if you don't want to tell me, the police will probably come to question you."
After Ye Fuyue finished speaking, she left with Shen Yao.
Aunt Ye and Ye Wanming were both surprised. After being surprised, they reacted.
"Laibao is missing, why did she come to ask us? And why did the police want to question us?" Ye Wanming said to Aunt Ye.
Aunt Ye's face turned pale when she thought about the reason.
The thing ordinary people like them fear most is dealing with the police. If she had known this would happen, she would not have allowed Ye Wanming to contact Cui Li.
…
When Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao returned to the bun shop, Zhong Lan and Yao Zaoer were already there. They searched around and asked around, but still had no clues.
The four of them waited in the bun shop for a while, and Cui Li came back with Huan Di.
As soon as Cui Li came back, she asked anxiously, "Is Laibao back?"
Seeing that everyone shook their heads, Cui Li was disappointed and quickly asked Ye Fuyue: "Did Ye Wanming say anything?"
Ye Fuyue said, "Neither he nor Aunt Ye has seen Laibao today. They don't look like they are lying."
Cui Li asked Zhong Lan again: "Did you find anything over there?"
Zhong Lan shook her head.
Cui Li was so disappointed that she couldn't help crying: "Where on earth did Laibao go?"
Ye Fuyue asked her, "What did the police say?"
Cui Li wiped away her tears, pulled herself together, and said, "I told the police about my situation, including the Liang family and Ye Wanming. They told me to come back and wait for news."
Ye Fuyue comforted her, "It's much easier for the police to investigate than it is for us. They might have news soon. You should get some rest tonight. They might need your cooperation tomorrow. The bun shop won't be open tomorrow, but if you're inside, leave the door open. Just in case any neighbors have seen Laibao and can provide some information."
Cui Li nodded: "Okay."
Ye Fuyue made sure that Zhong Lan and Cui Li had closed the doors and windows before she and Shen Yao left.
There was no one around when Shen Yao took her back to the compound. It was dark and quiet, with only the sound of bicycles rolling across the road.
Ye Fuyue grabbed the back of Shen Yao's clothes and asked him, "Who do you think took Laibao away?"
"It's hard to say." Chen Yao said, "Before Cui Li came back from the Public Security Bureau, Zhong Lan told us that there were beggars nearby recently. Maybe..."
Shen Yao didn't finish the rest of his words, but Ye Fuyue already understood what he meant.
"I hope it wasn't taken away by Paihuazi, otherwise the possibility of finding it back is very low." Ye Fuyue said.
"Yes." Shen Yao agreed.
As the bicycle entered the slum, Ye Fuyue noticed a figure walking slowly forward in front of her in the night.
Ye Fuyue was wondering who would be there so late at night while staring at the figure in front of her.
The man seemed to have heard some noise behind him and looked over here.
Only then did Ye Fuyue see clearly that the person in front was Liang Nan.
Liang Nan's face was gloomy. He just glanced at them, then looked away and continued walking forward.
When the bicycle passed Liang Nan, Ye Fuyue said to Shen Yao, "Stop for a moment."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yao squeezed the brakes and put his feet on the ground.
Ye Fuyue said to Liang Nan who was behind her, "Liang Nan, have you seen Lai Bao?"
Liang Nan's eyes trembled slightly, and he looked at Ye Fuyue fiercely: "I haven't seen it."
"I heard that you went to see Laibao recently and said bad things about Cui Li in front of Laibao. Have you really never met Laibao?" Ye Fuyue asked again.
"Never seen her." Liang Nan said as he passed by Ye Fuyue.
Shen Yao rode his bicycle in front of Liang Nan, blocking his way.
"You want to bring Bao back to the Liang family, right? I'm asking you about Bao, aren't you curious why I'm asking this?" Ye Fuyue stared at Liang Nan and said.
Liang Nan's eyes turned fierce. "I wanted to snatch Laibao back, but he didn't want to come back with me. He ran away when he saw me. You ungrateful bastard, I don't care why you asked him!"
"Where did you go so late?" Ye Fuyue asked again.
Liang Nan was furious: "What do you care where I went? Are you annoying me for asking me so many questions? I went to the public toilet, isn't that okay?"
After saying that, Liang Nan walked around Ye Fuyue and the others and left.
Shen Yao tilted his head and asked Ye Fuyue in a low voice: "Do you still want to ask him?"
"Don't ask anymore, go back first."
"good."
Shen Yao drove Ye Fuyue past Liang Nan and left.
As Liang Nan walked forward, he looked at Ye Fuyue deeply for a few seconds in the dark night.
…
The next day, because the bun shop was not open, and because Zhong Lan and Cui Li had been asking around for Lai Bao's whereabouts yesterday afternoon, the news of Lai Bao's disappearance spread throughout the neighborhood.
Cui Li stayed awake all night. At dawn, she went to the Public Security Bureau to inquire about the progress of the police.
After only one night, there was naturally no progress from the police side, and Cui Li returned home disappointed again.
She couldn't stay in the shop any longer, nor could she just sit and wait for news from the police, so she asked Zhong Lan to help look after Huan Di while she went around to inquire.
When Ye Fuyue arrived at the bun shop, Cui Li had not returned yet, so Ye Fuyue went to look for her.
When she saw Cui Li, Cui Li was going door to door asking.
"Didn't you come to ask yesterday? I told you that I didn't get the child you mentioned. Why are you here again?" The old man said impatiently when asked.
"Uncle, please think about it again. He is so tall and wearing a blue coat." Cui Li almost begged.
"I really haven't seen it. Even if you let me think about it a hundred times, I still haven't seen it. You'd better leave quickly." The old man frowned and drove Cui Li away.
Seeing the old man's firm tone, Cui Li knocked on the door of the next house.
The door was opened by an elderly woman. After listening to Cui Li's story, she said, "Why are you asking again? The police just left, and I told them I haven't seen your child."
"Cui Li," Ye Fuyue hurried over to hold Cui Li in her arms, "Go back and rest for a while. The police have already asked all the questions, so they definitely won't dare to lie."
Cui Li felt as if she had lost all her soul. "I can't stay in the shop! Whenever I have some free time, I think Laibao might have been taken away by bad guys."
Seeing Cui Li looking so pitiful, the old lady sighed, "But if you keep asking us like this, our answers are always the same. If we haven't seen it, then we haven't seen it. I can't lie to you and say I have seen it. Wouldn't that make you feel even worse?"
"This lady is right. You asked Zhong Lan about this yesterday, and the police also came to ask about it today. You should go back and have a rest first." Ye Fuyue said to Cui Li in a gentle voice.
