"Old man, why don't we stay in Bingjiao Hutong for two days?"

"These two kids are listless all the time. There's the Zhou family's baby in Bingjiao Hutong. Little Xuanzi Hanhan helps their aunt Ling to coax her brother, and they are in better spirits."

Mr. Lu immediately said, "I think it's done. I'll ask Amin to bring their brother and sister over from the military compound later."

"Since school hasn't started yet, let them come and play with Xiaoxuanzi and Hanhan for a few days."

This arrangement obviously suits Xiaoxuan Zihanhan's taste very much.

They were able to play with the baby born to Tang Yunling, and with Gu Min bringing He Yunqi and Xiao Ranzi over from the military compound, the children were playing and chasing each other in the house in Bingjiao Hutong, and Xiao Xuanzi and Hanhan were cheerful again.

Finally, the day arrived when He Ting and Lu Baiwei were about to return to Beijing, and He Hua helped to pick them up at the train station.

The old man of the Lu family was playing chess in the pavilion in the front yard with the old man Zhou who came from school to visit his great-grandson. The two were playing chess fiercely when they heard He Yunqi's anxious voice calling his brother from the backyard.

Along with He Yunqi and Xiao Ranzi's anxious shouts, Hanhan burst into tears.

Thinking that the children were having a conflict or something, Mr. Lu was no longer in the mood to play chess, and hurried to the backyard with Mr. Zhou.

"Hanhan, be good, why are you crying?"

The triplets are not crybabies, and they are usually cute and smiling.

When Hanhan cried, Mr. Lu was heartbroken.

He squatted down and hugged Hanhan to coax her: "Baby, did your brother bully you?"

"No, my brother is missing!"

Hanhan cried and pointed at the ginkgo tree in the backyard: "Brother climbed the tree and disappeared."

The three children often climbed up and down the ginkgo tree next to the well in the backyard.

How could a good person just disappear while climbing a tree?

He Yunqi came over to confirm that he was going to the toilet and asked Xiao Ranzi to take Hanhan out to play.

Xiao Ranzi and Hanhan were chasing each other on the corridor, Xuanxuan was climbing the ginkgo tree, and then in the blink of an eye, Xiao Xuanzi disappeared.

He Yunqi came out of the toilet and thought that Xiaoxuanzi had fallen from the tree into the alley outside, because the branches of the ginkgo tree extended over the wall. He Yunqi ran to the alley outside to look for his brother, but couldn't find him.

Xiaoxuanzi seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

Xiaoxuanzi is missing, and Mr. Lu feels very sad.

Old Mrs. Lu was preparing delicious food in the kitchen. When she heard that Xiaoxuanzi was missing, she came out after hearing the noise and almost fell to the ground.

Old Man Zhou Zhaoye was calmer because the waiter in front of the house was his friend. He guessed that in addition to the formation he had broken before, there might be other mechanisms in the house.

The old couple of the Lu family were so frightened by Xiaoxuanzi's disappearance that their legs went weak. Old Master Zhou called Zhou Yanfeng and Tang Yuanyang and asked them to help find him.

Let Tang Yuanyang and Zhou Yanfeng go to the alley outside to look for someone to see if Xiaoxuanzi fell from the tree and then got lost in the alley outside and took the wrong path.

It is also possible that the child is naughty and deliberately plays hide-and-seek with them.

Old Master Zhou, the old couple of the Lu family, Tang Yunling, along with He Yunqi, Xiao Ranzi and Hanhan, searched every corner of the house inside and out.

However, in the end, nothing was achieved.

Having ruled out the possibility that he fell into the alley and got lost, and the possibility that he was hiding somewhere in the house, there was still no sign of him. Grandpa Zhou could only guess that there was an invisible mechanism in the house.

But so many people moved into the house.

When my granddaughter-in-law Tang Yunling was in confinement after giving birth, the house in Bingjiao Hutong was much more lively than it is now. So many people lived in the house every day, but no mechanism was triggered.

Where is the mechanism of that house hidden?

He asked He Yunqi and Xiaoranzi carefully again how Xiaoxuanzi disappeared. The later they found Xiaoxuanzi, the more dangerous it would be. In a hurry, Mr. Zhou didn't care about his old age and climbed up the ginkgo tree himself.

Standing on the branches of the ginkgo tree and sticking his head out of the wall, he ruled out the possibility that Xiaoxuanzi fell over the wall.

Because according to He Yunqi, he just went to the toilet to pee and came back with Xiaoxuanzi gone.

Ranran also confirmed that she and her sister were chasing each other on the corridor, watching Xiaoxuanzi climbing a tree. They were playing hide-and-seek and came out from the rockery behind the corridor, and Xiaoxuanzi disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Old Man Zhou stood on a ginkgo tree branch, deep in thought. Seeing that the old couple of the Lu family were so anxious that their eyes were red, he leaned over to look at the well below.

Normally this well is covered, but this time it was not.

The well was deep, and from his perspective up in the tree, it looked like a black hole.

"Afeng, find a rope and tie it to the edge of the well, then go down and take a look."

Ating and Weiwei are coming back from Pengcheng soon. If they lose the child, they will be very worried.

As He Ting's best brother, Zhou Yanfeng was extremely anxious at this time.

Tang Yuanyang was equally anxious and ran to the tool shed in the backyard to get the thick hemp rope that he had used to hang tiles during the last renovation.

Zhou Yanfeng took the rope, but he was afraid it was not secure enough to tie it to the edge of the well, so he wrapped it around the thick ginkgo branch again. He took the flashlight that Tang Yunling brought back from the house, climbed up the thick rope thrown into the well, and stepped down step by step along the well wall.

After going down the well, he even sank to the bottom of the water.

The early spring water was so cold that it pierced his bones, but he still immersed himself in it and felt around in the water.

A well is so small that there is nothing to be felt underneath, which shows that Xiaoxuanzi did not fall into the bottom of the well.

In fact, when Zhou Yanfeng was climbing down the well using the thick hemp rope, he was shaking all over, because if Xuanxuan had fallen into the well, they would have searched the house inside and out before finally deciding to go down the well. Obviously, the child would have drowned if he had fallen into the well.

Zhou Yanfeng felt relieved when he didn't touch anything.

He was almost frozen into an ice cube. Relying on his strong willpower, he shivered and climbed up the edge of the well with difficulty. When Old Man Zhou Tang Yuanyang pulled him up, Zhou Yanfeng was frozen all blue and purple.

It was really too cold, so Zhou Yanfeng took the blanket handed to him by Tang Yunling and wrapped himself in it, shaking his head to indicate that he had not fallen into the well.

No one fell into the well, which is not bad news.

Professor Zhou was still wondering what kind of mechanism it was that he couldn't discover?

"How could a good person suddenly disappear?"

Mr. Lu was extremely anxious.

He now hated himself for being too eager to play chess and not following his child and watching him all the time.

The person was missing, and Grandpa Lu was still thinking about how to explain to his granddaughter and grandson-in-law. He Hua picked up Lu Baiwei and He Ting from the train station and drove into Bingjiao Hutong.

The car stopped at the gate of the house, and He Hua honked the horn to remind the people inside that He Ting and Lu Baiwei had returned from Pengcheng.

Strangely enough, He Hua honked the horn several times, but no one in the house responded.

Logically speaking, Xiaoxuan and Hanhan haven't seen their brother and sister-in-law for a long time. School is going to start in a few days, so Zhou Yanfeng, Tang Yunling and Tang Yuanyang should also be at home.

How come no one came to pick me up?

He Hua felt something was wrong, and He Ting and Lu Baiwei also had a bad premonition in their hearts.

Without even bothering to take the luggage they brought back from the south, He Ting and Lu Baiwei rushed into the house anxiously after getting out of the jeep that had just been turned off.
