Chapter 46: Who kidnaps whom?
Honey's cries grew louder with each step, until she finally broke down and couldn't help herself.
"I was wrong, Mom. Let's go back. I'm willing to live in school."
The thick darkness obscured Liu Yunshan's face, and no one saw the sneer that flashed across her face.
Losing your temper? Throwing a tantrum? You've begged for this, so enjoy it. No one can embarrass me in front of the camera, no one!
"Silly child, you still want to persist. If you are sick, you need to see a doctor."
Xiang Nuan was walking in the front, and she felt a chill on her back, and couldn't help wondering if Hani was her biological daughter. But she just pretended not to hear and concentrated on the stone steps under her feet.
"Is there anyone?" Xiang Nuan stopped.
"Mom, I'm afraid—"
"Mrs. Jiang, it's pointless for you to scare the child like this."
Before Liu Yunshan finished her words, she heard a muffled groan, and the flashlight fell to the ground and went out, and the whole world became dark.
"Oh, mother, ah——"
Hani turned back in panic to look for Liu Yunshan, but the stone steps were too narrow and he missed a step and slid down several steps.
"Mom, I'm scared. Where are you, Mom? Let's go back! I know I was wrong!"
"Shut up!"
Liu Yunshan's voice also began to tremble. Her breathing was particularly clear in the dead silence of the mountains, like a gasp from hell.
"Mrs. Jiang? Did you hear that? Are you okay? Mrs. Jiang... Xiang Nuan?!"
No one answered.
Liu Yunshan plucked up her courage, fumbled for the flashlight, turned it on and saw that the road ahead was empty.
"Xiang Nuan...don't scare me, where are you?"
Still no one answered.
The sound of water came from under their feet, and Liu Yunshan realized that they were not far from the bottom of the mountain.
…
"How long has it been?!" Jiang Ranran ignored Teacher Huang's persuasion and insisted on rushing out of the house.
As expected, no one was there. The toilet was completely empty, without even a ghost. Teacher Huang was also confused and hadn't realized what this meant. He took Jiang Ranran to search all the toilets in the school, but still found nothing.
"They... fell into the toilet?" Jiang Ranran's weird train of thought almost made Teacher Huang laugh out loud at an inappropriate time.
What kind of crazy logic is this? Three people, how could they fall in together?!
"No, I have to tell the principal!"
Knowing that this matter was of great importance, I had no choice but to report it to the principal.
"Mom? Mom, Mom!" Jiang Ranran's hair stood on end. The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. Could there really be something fishy going on?
He watched Teacher Huang and Principal Wang becoming more and more excited as they talked, and then two other teachers joined the search team. Jiang Ranran couldn't help but call Jiang Yunhui.
"She's gone."
Jiang Ranran's voice was filled with tears, and she didn't even realize that tears were already rolling down her cheeks.
"What? Who's missing?"
"Xiang Nuan is missing, and mom is missing."
He finally burst into tears.
"We've got in touch." Teacher Huang ran over breathlessly, hugged Ranran, who was almost frozen, and wrapped him tightly in a quilt.
"Where? Where did you go?"
"Don't worry, we've contacted Honey's mother first. Honey is sick, and they took her to the hospital overnight. She's still in town now."
"What about my mother?"
"She said your mother sent them to the back mountain and then came back... Don't worry, since she hasn't come down the mountain, she must still be in school. Everyone is looking for her. Maybe it's too dark and she's in an unfamiliar place, so she might have lost her way. She'll be fine."
Teacher Huang said that he didn't believe it, but he was still trying to comfort Jiang Ranran.
Until the east wind brought a pale sky and the crowing of roosters could be heard one after another, Jiang Ranran did not wait for Xiang Nuan's news, but saw his father already standing in the yard.
Jiang Ranran thought she was dreaming. She stayed still for a moment before diving into Jiang Yunhui's arms.
"Did you find it?" he asked tentatively.
Jiang Yunhui shook his head and hugged him tighter.
"Are you scared? Don't be afraid, Daddy is here."
"We have sent people out to search along the mountain road. According to what Liu Yunshan said yesterday, they pushed open the fence and walked out of the back mountain. This road is steep but not long. We will search everywhere around." Director Zhang learned the news at dawn, but his face looked as if he had not slept all night.
"Did you call the police?"
"This...Brother Hui, there can't be anyone else here. You can see that this place is so small. Mrs. Jiang can't have disappeared out of thin air. Let's look for her again..."
Jiang Yunhui was furious and took out his phone to call the police without saying a word. He thought the program team took measures immediately, but he didn't expect it to be delayed!
"Yunhui, Mr. Jiang, Brother Hui!" Director Zhang didn't care about the consequences and rushed to Jiang Yunhui: "Give us two more hours, just two. It was dark last night and we couldn't see anyone. Now that it's daybreak, it's a good time to look for him. Calling the police would have too much impact..."
"Get out!" Jiang Yunhui roared.
"Have you found it? Yunhui, you're here?!" Liu Yunshan's clothes were disheveled and her makeup was messy, as if she had rushed back from a thousand miles away.
"Where is she?!" Jiang Yunhui grabbed her arm.
"Xiang Nuan sent us to the fence last night and then went back. Honey was not feeling well, so we left in a hurry and didn't know where she went. Where else could she go in the middle of the night?"
"Principal Wang clearly told us not to go left yesterday, why did you still go left?!" Jiang Ranran jumped up and asked.
"Ran Ran, you saw it with your own eyes last night. Hani was seriously ill. After we came out, your mother said that this road was shorter and would get us down the mountain faster, so..."
"Where's Honey?"
"She's still in the hospital. I asked my assistant to stay with her. I'll rush back first..."
"It's not even 6 o'clock now. In two hours, the children will come to school one after another. If there are too many people, the scene will be ruined. Please ask Principal Wang to notify us to take a day off today to protect the scene."
"this……"
How is this any different from calling the police? This way everyone will know something is wrong, and the impact on the show will be devastating!
Seeing Director Zhang hesitate, Jiang Yunhui grabbed him by the collar.
"Ran Ran called the police!"
"No, no, no, don't do that. I'll go talk to Principal Wang right away."
At this moment, Jiang Yunhui's cell phone suddenly rang, and his blood ran cold when he saw it.
Is it Xiang Nuan? !
"Where are you? Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Jiang Yunhui almost yelled.
"You are already in school, right? I'll show you something fun."
Xiang Nuan's voice was neither hurried nor slow. She switched the chat video. In the camera, a man was tied up and his whole body was wet, as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
"Bring Director Zhang and Miss Liu to the place I sent you. Hurry up, I'm afraid this person won't be able to hold on for too long."
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. What was going on? It wasn't someone else who hurt her, but she kidnapped someone else? And it was a big, burly man?!
Director Zhang is more anxious than Jiang Yunhui. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and leave. Are you waiting for you to call the police?
He almost trotted along the way, and the rugged path didn't seem so dangerous anymore. Not long after walking along the river, he saw the man who was tied to a tree and had no hope in life.
"Uh-huh--"
Seeing the person coming, he twisted his body wildly. As his mouth was blocked, he could only make a snoring sound like a wild animal.
Jiang Yunhui pulled the thing out of his mouth and found that it was his socks. He threw it to the ground in disgust.
"you……"
"It was Chen Sumei who gave me money to let me and Liu Yunshan work together inside and outside, and pretend to be a black fan and attack her when she brought Mrs. Jiang out. I deserve to die, I shouldn't be blinded by greed, Miss Liu, please testify for me!"
Liu Yunshan's face was ashen, as if she had been struck by lightning, and she froze in place.
