Chapter 469
Only then did Cui Li and Ye Fuyue return to the bun shop.
They waited in the shop for a whole day, but the police didn't show up, but Chen Yao did.
Chen Yao came to pick up Ye Fuyue and told Cui Li and the others what he knew.
"The police went to the factory today to question Liang Nan and Liang's father. I don't know what they asked specifically."
When Cui Li heard Shen Yao's words, her heart, as dead as ashes, showed no emotion at all.
Ye Fuyue took the opportunity to comfort Cui Li: "Look, the public security comrades are already asking around. Maybe there will be news soon."
Cui Li nodded perfunctorily and said to Ye Fuyue, "You go back first."
Ye Fuyue thought it was pointless for her to stay here, so she agreed: "I'll go back first. If there is any situation or news about Laibao, please let me know at any time."
"Okay." Zhong Lan said.
As soon as Chen Yao and Ye Fuyue returned to the compound, Ye Fuyue was stopped by Aunt Donghong and the others.
"Fu Yue, I heard Lai Bao is missing!" said Aunt Dong Hong.
"Yes, I disappeared yesterday afternoon." Ye Fuyue asked Aunt Donghong, "Aunt, how did you know?"
"My husband came home today and said the police went to the factory looking for Liang Nan and Liang's father. This afternoon, the police also came to our yard and asked every household if they had seen Liang Nan and Liang's father in the yard yesterday afternoon." Aunt Donghong asked, "Are the police suspecting that Laibao's disappearance is related to the Liang family?"
"I don't know." Ye Fuyue said truthfully: "Maybe he's suspicious, or maybe it's just a routine question."
Ye Fuyue asked the aunts, "Have the public security comrades asked you questions?"
"Yes," Aunt Qian said, "Not to mention us, even your mother-in-law was questioned."
"What did the public security comrades ask you?" Ye Fuyue asked.
"She asked us if we saw Liang Nan and Liang's father in the yard yesterday afternoon, and also asked us if we had seen Lai Bao recently." Aunt Fan said.
"Are you all asked the same questions?" Ye Fuyue asked.
Aunt Qian said, "We don't know about others, but the three of us and your mother-in-law were all asked the same question."
"Then how did you answer?" Ye Fuyue asked.
Aunt Fan said, "We haven't seen Laibao recently, and I didn't see Liang Nan and Liang's father in the yard yesterday afternoon. However, Aunt Qian said she saw Liang Nan go out yesterday afternoon."
Aunt Qian nodded. "Yes, the police even asked me if I knew when Liang Nan would come back. I said I didn't know."
Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao looked at each other.
"You just came back from the shop, Cui Li must be feeling uncomfortable." Aunt Donghong said.
Ye Fuyue nodded: "Yes, she looks much more haggard."
Aunt Fan sighed: "I hope Laibao is safe and sound."
As soon as Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao returned home, Ye Fuyue asked Chen Guifeng about the police coming to question her in the afternoon.
"I told the police that I'd only seen Laibao at the bun shop recently, and the last time I saw him was four days ago. I told them that I heard my daughter-in-law mention Liangnan going to look for Laibao, and when I left yesterday afternoon, I saw Liangnan just leaving the compound."
"You also saw Liang Nan go out," Ye Fuyue said, "I just came back and ran into Aunt Donghong and the others. Aunt Qian said she also saw Liang Nan go out yesterday afternoon."
"Yes," Chen Guifeng said. "The police asked me if I knew when Liang Nan would return, and I said I didn't know."
After a pause, Chen Guifeng asked Ye Fuyue, "Hasn't the police found Laibao yet?"
"No, not so soon." Ye Fuyue said, "But the police are already asking around, so maybe they'll have a clue soon."
"Who took Laibao away? I hope it wasn't the beggar." Chen Guifeng said, "We have to keep a close eye on Haohao Ranran and Qiqi recently. Let them play in the courtyard and don't let them stray too far."
Ye Fuyue agreed: "We should keep a closer eye on them."
"Mother--"
"Mother--"
"Mother--"
Haohaoranran and Qiqi ran out of the house when they saw Ye Fuyue coming back.
"I heard from grandma that Laibao is missing. Where did Laibao go?" Ranran asked.
"Mom doesn't know where Laibao went. The police are looking for him." Ye Fuyue said.
"Did Laibao meet some bad guys?" Qiqi's face wrinkled.
"I don't know, I hope not." Ye Fuyue said, touching Qiqi's little head.
"Did Laibao's ex-father take him away? The last time we went to the bun shop, my younger brother told us that Laibao's ex-father came to look for him, and he also said that Laibao's ex-father was a very bad person." Haohao said.
"Yes," Ranran nodded heavily. "Yesterday afternoon, we were playing in the compound, and we saw Laibao's ex-father come back from outside and then go out again."
"When did you see it? Why didn't you tell the police officer when he was here in the afternoon?" Chen Guifeng asked.
"The police didn't ask us, so we didn't dare to say anything." Ranran pouted pitifully.
"Grandma said that she saw Laibao's ex-father go out. It's okay if we don't tell her." Qiqi said. She didn't understand that what Chen Guifeng saw was not the same as what the three little kids saw.
"When did you see Laibao's ex-father come back from outside and go out again?" Ye Fuyue asked in a gentle voice.
"When..." Ranran tilted her head and recalled.
Haohao said: "Not long after Laibao's ex-father went out, grandma called us back."
Chen Guifeng suddenly realized: "That was around five o'clock in the afternoon. I went out at around two o'clock in the afternoon and saw Liang Nan go out. That means Liang Nan came back around five o'clock and went out again."
Ye Fuyue said to Shen Yao, "Should we report this to the police?"
Shen Yao nodded: "It's better to say it."
"Then why don't you take Haohao to the Public Security Bureau now?" Ye Fuyue said.
Haohao is the oldest of the three children, and his ability to express and understand is better now.
Shen Yao agreed and took Haohao out on his bicycle.
…
Ye Fuyue didn't expect that this incident would become a breakthrough for the police to find Lai Bao.
Because Liang Nan told the police that he went out that afternoon and came back around five o'clock, and he never went out again after that.
The police learned from Haohao that Liang Nan had actually gone out again around five o'clock, so they took Liang Nan back to the police station for questioning.
Liang Nan then admitted that he had gone out again around five o'clock in the afternoon, but he had gone to the public toilet and came back soon, so he did not tell the police.
Liang's father also testified that Liang Nan went to the public toilet at that time.
When the police were beginning to doubt Liang Nan's words, one of Liang Nan's colleagues told them that he had seen Liang Nan on the street around 7 o'clock that evening. He wanted to call out to Liang Nan, but Liang Nan walked too fast, so he didn't call out to him.
