The baby's crying in the room stopped, probably because Liu Cuifang was feeding the child. After a while, when the lights were turned off, He Ting groped his way to the fork in the road ahead and met up with Zhou Yanfeng and others who were waiting there.

Zhou Yanfeng came forward and said, "Brother Ting, how is it?"

"I didn't hear any useful information."

Liu Zaicheng became anxious.

He feels very guilty.

He blamed himself for being so busy that he forgot about Feng Shishi coming to the Red Flag Brigade next door.

If he had gone to the educated youth center earlier to ask Lingling whether Feng Shishi had returned from the next brigade, she would not have gone missing.

He asked He Ting: "What should we do now?"

"We can only trace back along the Red Flag Brigade's road."

I really can’t think of where Feng Shishi might go.

He Ting thought calmly for a while and said, "We have to look carefully this time. We must not miss any bushes or grass on the roadside. We must look carefully."

"It's too late now. If we don't find him tonight, Liu Zaicheng and I will go to the police station to report the case tomorrow."

"Lingling, you are familiar with the Red Flag Brigade. Tomorrow morning, take Zhou Yanfeng with you and ask Aunt Hongmei to go door to door to ask if anyone has seen Feng Shishi."

"Aunt Hongmei was hoeing the fields and saw Feng Shishi leaving Zhao Yongsen's house. She always ran into people on the road."

Reality is often so cruel.

If they could wait until the next day, when He Ting and Liu Zaicheng went to the police station to report the case, and if they could wait until dawn and Tang Yunling asked Ye Hongmei to go door to door to ask questions, perhaps Feng Shishi would still have a chance of survival.

But, obviously this opportunity is gone.

Because as early as the moment He Ting knocked on Zhao Yongsen's door and didn't see Feng Shishi, he already felt something was wrong.

The crowd searched all the way back along Zhao Yongsen's house, searching all the bushes and trees on the roadside. When they found the small woods at the junction of the Hongqi Brigade and the Xiangyang Brigade, they finally found Feng Shishi.

But at that time, Feng Shishi was already buried under the rotten leaves with her clothes in disarray, and a lot of freshly cut branches were pushed on her body.

Only when everyone brought enough flashlights could we find the person.

Liu Zaicheng brought a flashlight to the brigade clinic for class at night, and Zhao Lingling also brought one. When they went out, Lu Baiwei gave them two more flashlights to light the way. So the five of them had a total of four flashlights.

There are also two forests on the road near Zhao Yongsen's home in the Red Flag Brigade.

Of course, there was no sign of the poet Feng Shi.

In fact, after searching along the grass and woods all the way until we found the valley where the Hongqi Battalion and the Xiangyang Battalion met, we still didn't see anyone.

In fact, this is good news.

The guess that He Ting has a bad heart will not be confirmed unless someone proves it.

But it just so happened that Zhao Lingling, who was not used to walking at night, was tripped by a stone when leaving the grove, and fell forward onto a pile of freshly cut branches.

Liu Zaicheng was afraid that she would get hurt, so when he helped her up, he asked with concern: "Lingling, where did you fall?"

"No, my hand was scratched by a branch and it hurts a bit, but there seems to be something cushioning underneath, so my body wasn't hurt that much."

When he heard Zhao Lingling say that there was something soft underneath, Tang Yunling subconsciously turned on the flashlight and shone it over there, even though there were no snakes in this weather. He shone the light under the branches and leaves that were knocked open, revealing a white and tender arm.

"What?"

Zhou Yanfeng looked in the direction of the flashlight beam and jumped in fright.

He Ting and Liu Zaicheng seemed to be thinking of something, and they rushed over to push aside the bushes at the same time, and saw the dishevelled female corpse under the branches. They slowly lifted the rotten leaves that were blocking her face, revealing Feng Shishi's lifeless face.

Liu Zaicheng was so scared that his knees went weak and he fell to the ground. He touched the tip of Feng Shishi's nose, and then held his hands there as if they were fixed.

"she……"

Liu Zaicheng wanted to speak, but his voice was choked.

When Zhao Lingling saw him like this, she burst into tears.

He Ting also reached out and felt Feng Shishi's breath.

He Ting shook his head with a heavy face at Tang Yunling and Zhou Yanfeng who were looking at him.

A vibrant life just disappeared in their lives.

They couldn't imagine that if they removed the branches piled on her, underneath would be the person who listened to Professor Zhou's lectures with them every night. This blow was unacceptable to everyone.

I don’t know how long it will take, maybe a few minutes, or maybe more than ten minutes.

Everyone forgot to be afraid, and everyone was silent.

Later, Zhou Yanfeng asked He Ting in a trembling voice: "Brother Ting, what should we do now?"

"Call the police at dawn!"

The scene before us is an unpleasant fact.

He Ting was in a heavy mood. "Liu Zaicheng and I will guard here first. You and Lingling will take Zhao Lingling back to call for help. Let Gong Minbing lead others to keep watch. Don't let anyone destroy the crime scene."

During the days of studying at the brigade clinic, Feng Shishi told her good friend Zhao Lingling that she planned to accept Li Ruicai.

Liu Zaicheng also said that today at the commune post office, Feng Shishi received the package sent by Li Ruicai, and she kept grinning when she saw the letter.

Li Rui just learned the bad news. What should he do?

He Ting really hoped that nothing had happened.

I hope that after Feng Shishi received the package, she did not rush to deliver milk powder to Liu Cuifang's child.

I hope she is attending classes well in the brigade clinic now.

But there is no going back.

Everything before us has been decided.

He Ting was in a heavy mood and was already thinking about sending a telegram to Li Ruicai as soon as possible.

Zhou Yanfeng knew that this was the only way. He was afraid that Tang Yunling and Zhao Lingling would be frightened, so he listened to He Ting and took the two crying women back to the team first.

Lu Baiwei was waiting at the brigade clinic, anxiously.

After coaxing the three children and Xiao Ranzi to sleep, Tang Yuanyang took the little Tangren He Yunqi back to the Tang family. Lu Baiwei sat with Zhou Yueying and Professor Chen Wen, waiting for He Ting and others to come back.

"Feng Zhiqing was probably spoiled because his family was too well off. After going to the countryside, he sometimes doesn't understand the ways of the country."

"She is a good student."

Zhou Yueying said so.

Lu Baiwei also said: "Yes, she is a bit spoiled, but she is not a bad person."

"She always remembers who treats her well."

"Shen Guixiang targeted her and wanted to take her home. Liu Cuifang called Gong Minbing to save her. She always remembered this favor and bought almost all the milk powder for Liu Cuifang's baby."

"If there is anything to eat, take it all to the next brigade."

Zhou Yueying sighed: "Who said it wasn't?"

"I heard that you and He Ting were married before, and she came to stop you. I thought this educated youth was shameless."

"Later, she was dying of illness at the educated youth camp. You went there every day to give her acupuncture and moxibustion, and saved her life. She still remembered your kindness."

"She has been with Lingling in the clinic for so many days, and I have finally figured out that she is a tough-mouthed person with a soft heart."

Zhou Yueying actually admired Feng Shishi's learning ability.

"If she changes her temper and studies hard, she can get into a good school when the opportunity comes."

It can be said that whether it is Lu Baiwei or Zhou Yueying who teaches the class, everyone has accepted Feng Shishi.

However, Feng Shishi was too credulous and lost the opportunity to take the college entrance examination and return to the city.
