Chapter 24 Returning Home



So under the command of Lin Shouguo, comrades from the armed forces conducted a carpet search in the county, and finally got news from a staff member of a guesthouse that a person from another county had been living in their guesthouse recently, and that person left this afternoon. When he left, he seemed to be holding a child in his arms, but no one knew where he went.

The next day, according to the recollections of the reception staff, Lin Shouguo asked someone to draw a portrait of the man, and then began to ask around with the portrait, but in the end he got no information.

Seeing that there was no news, Lin Shouguo was very angry. After all, one day late meant a greater possibility that the child would not be found.

The Li family had been in a depressed mood for the past two days, especially Liu Zhaodi, who dared not utter a word when she saw Niu Cuihua's sullen face. Li Aiguo, who was originally out of town, rushed back as soon as he received the news.

Sanni looked at the people with sad faces and wanted to say something, but when she thought about Li Mingxi, who was usually very favored, she said nothing in the end and continued to do what she had to do.

Li Mingxi on this side thought he was finished the moment before he fell into coma again, but unexpectedly, he was rescued in the end.

It turned out that after the flight attendant Xiao Zhang went back, he thought about it carefully and felt more and more that something was wrong. First of all, the expression of the companion of the man holding the child was very wrong, and he looked very nervous. Secondly, the man holding the child said that he cared about the child, but the look in his eyes when he looked at the child did not have a trace of fatherly love, but a hint of cruelty.

Besides, the little girl looked at him with eyes clearly asking for help, and coupled with her shouting, Xiao Zhang suspected that she was most likely a beggar who kidnapped children, so he quickly found the train conductor Wang Jiefang and reported the situation to him.

After understanding the specific situation, Wang Jiefang first sent someone disguised as a passenger to check on the little girl. When he heard that the child had fainted again, he immediately decided to catch the two human traffickers and eliminate this harm to society.

In this way, Zhao Qiang and Xu Zhiyuan were successfully arrested, and Li Mingxi was also rescued.

But this time she didn't wake up so quickly. Xu Zhiyuan was afraid that something bad would happen if Li Mingxi woke up again, so he kept her in a coma for a while longer. She didn't wake up until the afternoon of the next day in the hospital.

When the police officer in charge saw that Li Mingxi had woken up, he quickly called the nurse. After a series of examinations, he found that Li Mingxi was not seriously injured, so he took Li Mingxi back to the police station.

Since Zhao Qiang and Xu Zhiyuan have not admitted that they are human traffickers, if they want to send Li Mingxi back, they can only ask Li Mingxi herself.

The young policeman asked softly, "Little boy, tell me, where are you from?"

Li Mingxi looked at the policeman in front of him, looking thoughtful. "Well, I'm from the Dongfeng Brigade!"

"Think about it again. Do you know which Dongfeng Brigade this is from?"

Li Mingxi raised her head and blinked innocently, "I don't know. Grandma seemed to have mentioned that Great-grandfather went to the Red Flag Commune."

The young policeman almost vomited blood when he heard this. In that era, names like Dongfeng Brigade and Hongqi Commune were everywhere, and it was impossible to find a place. In desperation, he could only continue asking.

Then Li Mingxi saw the policeman, whose face was originally a little grim, become gentle again, "Little boy, can you tell me what fun places are there near your home?"

Li Mingxi knew he couldn't pretend anymore, or people would lose their patience, so he timidly said, "Yes, my eldest brother and his friends often go to Yueshan to get bird eggs, but I haven't been there much. My grandma won't let me go."

When Wang Yang heard the word "Yueshan", he knew he had found the place. It must be the name of a mountain, so he quickly asked other policemen if they had heard of this place. When Wang Weijia heard the word "Yueshan", he remembered that there was a mountain with this name in Boshan County. Wasn't his old leader in this place?

Wang Weijia: "I know, this Yueshan is in Boshan County, and my former boss is working there now."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yang said excitedly, "Then call your old boss and ask if any of their children are missing."

So, Lin Shouguo, who was originally thinking of contacting the provincial government, received this call. When he heard that Wong Kar-wai and his team had a little girl who had been abducted and the name matched his name, he immediately asked them to help send the person back. In this way, Li Mingxi was sent back to Boshan County by Wong Kar-wai.

At the same time, the entire Li family was in a state of despair. Since Li Mingxi went missing, Niu Cuihua had hardly slept and became ill, and Zhang Huilan cried every day.

The members of the Dongfeng Brigade expressed deep sympathy for the situation of Old Li's family. After all, no one had expected that there would be a beggar in the village. These days, if a child was lost, it was almost impossible to find him.

But there was one exception, and that person was Niu Juxiang. When she heard that Li Mingxi was missing and Niu Cuihua was sick because of it, she felt as happy as if she had eaten an ice cream in the middle of summer. After all, it was her who had a better life than hers. Now that she was finally in trouble, she felt a little gloating.

She was so proud of herself that she forgot to hide her feelings when she went out. When the members of the Dongfeng Brigade saw her like this, they originally thought that the two of them were sworn enemies, so it was normal for her to be happy. But someone mentioned it, and they thought that maybe it was the beggar she hired. Now, everyone in the brigade disliked her.

When Niu Cuihua heard the news, she got up from the bed without caring whether she was sick or not.

Niu Cuihua was furious. "Niu Juxiang, tell me the truth, were you the one who hired the beggar?"

Niu Juxiang sneered, "Your child is missing, what does it have to do with me? Why do you say I hired the beggar?"

Niu Cuihua stared, "Why have you been so happy every day since my child was lost?"

Niu Juxiang raised her nose to the sky, "Isn't it okay for me to be happy? You damned old woman finally got your comeuppance. In my opinion, you deserved to lose your child. A little girl, spoiled to the heavens every day, couldn't bear that blessing, so she was lost!"

After hearing this, the people standing by and watching the fun wanted to go up and slap Niu Juxiang.

Before Niu Cuihua could speak, she heard the accountant's wife, Niu Sufen, unable to hold back, "Juxiang, how can you talk like that? Look at what you're saying, is that even human? No matter what, we're all from the same village. Not only are you not getting anxious, but you're also stabbing people in the heart. How could you do that?"

Wang Pozi, the tree lady, also stepped forward and said, "Exactly, Juxiang, I only knew that you were a troublemaker and had no bad intentions. I never thought you would be such a person."

Other elderly women also stepped forward to accuse Niu Juxiang. Looking at the crowd surrounding her, Niu Juxiang was about to retort when she heard someone shouting, "Xiaoxi is back, Aunt Cuihua, hurry home and take a look!"

After hearing this, Niu Cuihua hurried home in a hurry. When the others heard that Xiaoxi was back, they also hurried to Lao Li's house, leaving Niu Juxiang alone standing there in a daze, staring blankly.
