The sun shines through the leaves, casting brilliant spots of light.
In the well-decorated residential complex, children are chasing and playing on the road.
All three wore cool black sunglasses with gold rims.
He was wearing a black windbreaker and walked with a majestic and powerful look.
Yi Li walked among them with his head held high, wearing a smaller version of the same black windbreaker with children's sunglasses pinned to the collar.
The four people's outfits attracted a lot of people's attention.
"Grandma, what are they doing?"
"Wow, are they agents? That feels so cool."
"Don't follow their lead. It's already 30 degrees today, and you're still wearing so much. Are you trying to cover up your heat rash?"
"This is child trafficking. Don't let any of you get kidnapped."
"Oh my, this outfit is so conspicuous."
…
These compliments were mixed with laughter and reached their ears.
Yi Li: "..."
Xuezha: "..."
rigorous:"……"
Duan Hao: "..."
Who said to dress like this?
Duan Lao was the first to take off his sunglasses: "I think we should keep a low profile."
Xue Zha coughed dryly, "What a mistake. It's a bit hot."
As he said this, he took off his coat, revealing the short-sleeved shirt underneath.
Yan Jin took off his sunglasses, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and complained, "Oh, I was wondering why it was so hot. It turns out I was wearing too many clothes. This weather is really weird. It was so cold yesterday, but it's so hot today."
The shortest Yili: "..."
Brother, your sweat is all over my face.
Are you polite?
The four people who were so cool just now took off their coats, revealing the same short-sleeved shirts, with their coats on their left hands. This same outfit once again attracted a lot of people's attention.
"Aren't we supposed to keep a low profile?"
“Being too high-profile is also a kind of low-profile.”
Xue Zha told Yi Li earnestly: "When you get used to it, you will understand why we are like this."
"Isn't it that he finally got the chance to skip class and come on this mission, and he's forcing us to cooperate just to show off?"
Yan Jin whispered in Duan Lao's ear.
Duan Lao glanced at Yan Jin: "Then why are you still cooperating with her?"
"Xue Zha is still a high school student, what's wrong with us giving in to her?"
"Oh, you're probably afraid she'll threaten you with the video of you being toasted by a bunch of male models, right?"
Duan Lao hit the nail on the head directly, and Yan Jin felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard it.
Just when Yan Jin was about to fight back.
A festive song suddenly filled the air.
"Big Pixiu, big Pixiu, big Pixiu, big Pixiu!
Wish you good fortune and prosperity and I’ll give you a big Pixiu!
Drink white wine, beer, red wine, and foreign liquor!
Brothers and sisters happily drink together!
Big Pixiu, big Pixiu, big Pixiu, big Pixiu, big Pixiu..."
Everyone's eyes fell on Yili.
Yi Li quickly answered the call from Jin Qing.
"Hey, what do you want from me?"
"You guys should keep a low profile. Don't be like a peacock showing off with flowers in its place. She ran away before you even got to her house."
Jin Qing's helpless voice came from the phone.
"Okay, okay."
Yili answered quickly.
Yi Li hung up the phone and repeated Jin Qing's words to them.
Xue Zha touched his nose when he heard this: "How do we look like peacocks? Besides, we don't have flowers on our tails."
Yan Jin: "Exactly. Even peacocks are black, okay? We are all dressed in black."
"Maybe it's because you look so colorful."
Duan Lao patted Yan Jin's shoulder and spoke earnestly.
Duan Lao strode forward after he finished speaking: "Hurry up, don't waste time."
"Who are you scolding?"
Yan Jin was stunned for a moment before he reacted and started asking Duan Lao.
Yi Li quickly trotted after him.
Xue Zha strode to Yi Li's side and said, "As long as they hurry up, there's no need for us to be so anxious."
…
“Ding dong! Ding dong!”
Duan Lao rang the doorbell, and Yan Jin stood beside him, always alert to what was happening behind the door.
Yi Li's eyes fell on the door number on the door.
On 4-18-3, there was a festive red image of the God of Wealth and New Year's couplets left over from last year's Spring Festival pasted on the door of the smart door.
"Who is it?"
A woman's tired voice sounded from behind the door.
The door was opened by a woman.
"Ms. Huang? We are from the Special Operations Investigation Team. We received a report from someone and are here to investigate your husband's disappearance."
Duan Lao handed the investigation warrant to Ms. Huang. Ms. Huang took it and read it carefully before looking back at them. Her gaze fell on Yi Li: "Who is she? Why is she with you?"
"She is..." Duan Lao was just about to make up a reasonable divine ranking for Yi Li, but Yi Li spoke first.
"Auntie, my mother is missing too. They are here to take me to find her."
Yili tugged at her clothes, looking frightened and pitiful: "If Auntie minds, I can just stand outside and wait for them."
"Yes, her name is Liu Xiaoli. She's a poor child. Her mother, like your husband, suddenly disappeared."
When Ms. Huang heard this, her eyes, which had just been alert, changed instantly: "No problem, you all come in."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Yili's eyes were slightly red, and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes. Even when the beautiful child was crying, people didn't feel any impatience, but more of heartache.
When Ms. Huang saw Yili like this, she couldn't help but feel distressed. After all, she was a mother. How could she bear to see such a cute and beautiful child sad in front of her, not to mention that she had lost the most important relative in her life just like herself.
Yi Li felt someone wiping her tears. When she looked up, she saw Ms. Huang, who looked haggard.
"Don't cry, your mother will come back, and my husband will come back too."
"Thank you, Aunt Huang."
Yili cried out and threw himself into Ms. Huang's arms, sobbing silently.
Her small body was shaking with crying, but she didn't make any sound. Ms. Huang just felt her heart was sore and soft.
Ms. Huang gently patted Yili's back, comforting the child who was suffering from the same illness.
The other three people's eyes also turned red.
This kid is really good at acting.
It would be a waste of talent not to become a child star.
Several people entered Ms. Huang's house.
They sat in the living room, a faint sweet smell lingering in the air.
"What does it taste like? It's so sweet."
Xuezha couldn't help but ask.
Ms. Huang, who was pouring water for several people, paused.
"Really? It must be the aroma of the little cakes I just baked for the kids. You can try a few later."
"Thank you, no need to bother, just give me two pieces."
Xue Zha was not polite when he heard this.
Yan Jin silently tugged at Xue Zha: "Be serious, sister."
Xuezha patted Yan Jin and glared at him.
Yan Jin silently withdrew his gaze upon hearing this.
She is the boss, and whatever she says goes.
Duan Lao helplessly held his forehead and said, "Be serious, both of you."
"I'm quite serious."
"Your lips are so pouty you could hang an oil can on them."
“…”
