Five o'clock in the afternoon.

The provincial capital of Hebei Province.

At the airport exit, Jiang Feng said, "Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang, find a place and let me calculate it again. I believe that after this calculation, we can lock the scope to a city."

Yang Zhengke nodded and said, "It's time for dinner now, let's go to a restaurant downtown to eat!"

Jiang Feng said: "Uncle Yang, finding someone is the most important thing now, just eat something simple for dinner."

Perhaps Master Jiang was telling the truth, but Yang Zhengke's EQ was not that low, and he quickly replied, "Master Jiang, my eldest son has been missing for 27 years. No matter how urgent it is, I can't rush to have a meal. I just had a bowl of noodles at noon. I must treat you to a good meal in the afternoon, otherwise I will feel bad."

Qin Xueqin also nodded and said, "Yes, Master Jiang, you are our benefactor. We would feel bad if we were to make do with lunch. We absolutely cannot make do with the afternoon. We must eat well."

The three members of the Wei family were just guests and originally did not want to express their opinions. However, after Yang Zhengke and his wife made their position clear, the three of them took the opportunity to help persuade them.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng stopped insisting and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you. It's still early anyway. I'll do some calculations while we eat. After dinner, we'll take the train to the targeted city to rest and continue the calculations and search tomorrow."

Yang Zhengke and others naturally had no objection when they heard this.

…

An hour later.

In a restaurant box, while waiting for the food to be served, Yang Zhengke pricked his left middle finger with a needle again, then squeezed out a drop of blood into a cup, and then handed the cup to Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng shook the blood evenly and repeated the operation at noon. He pointed at the blood with his finger, wrote the word "dragon" on the table, and then started calculating again.

The reason why he wanted to do this was naturally to increase the sense of ritual of the calculation. This thing also needed to be packaged. Although the result of the calculation was the same, there was still a difference between having a calculation ceremony and not having one.

Think about it, just counting on your fingers, you can directly find Yang Zhengke's eldest son. Compared with personally taking Yang Zhengke and others to figure out step by step and find the person step by step, which one is a better favor?

Under the gaze of the three members of the Wei family and Yang Zhengke and his wife, Jiang Feng lowered his head and calculated for two or three minutes before he looked up and said, "Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang, after this calculation, we can finally lock the scope to the city."

Yang Zhengke looked a little excited and asked, "Master Jiang, which city is this?"

Jiang Feng said concisely: "HD."

Wei Xuefeng was a serious college student after all. When he heard the very familiar city name, he immediately asked, "Master Jiang, is this the only HD in our country that has never changed its name in more than 3,000 years?"

Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Yes, that's the HD."

Wei Xuefeng said: "It is at least 2,000 kilometers from our Chuanjiang City to HD City. I don't know whether my cousin Xiaolong was abducted here or he came to this city to work after he grew up."

Mother Wei said bitterly, "This human trafficker is so abominable. When Xiaolong is found, we must find a way to catch this human trafficker. If we don't bring this human trafficker to justice, we will never be able to relieve the hatred in our hearts."

Father Wei continued, "Don't worry, with Master Jiang's help, this trafficker won't be able to escape unless he's dead!"

Yang Zhengke was moved when he heard this and asked, "Master Jiang, can you figure out who the human trafficker was?"

Jiang Feng shook his head and said, "It is definitely impossible to deduce it out of thin air. At least we need to know the name, nickname or appearance of the trafficker. But don't be discouraged. Wait until we find Brother Yang and see if he still has any impression of the trafficker. As long as he can provide some important clues, I can try to deduce it.

As for whether the traffickers can be found, it all depends on God’s will.”

Qin Xueqin sighed and said, "Xiaolong was only five years old when he was abducted. It's hard to say whether he can remember the characteristics of the traffickers!"

Jiang Feng said: "Let's find the person first. As long as Brother Yang can provide some clues, the human trafficker will not be able to escape."

Yang Zhengke nodded and said, "Yes, let's find the person first. As for the evil human trafficker, he may have already been caught by the law."

Everyone nodded when they heard this, this is also very possible.

After all, the country's crackdown on human traffickers is becoming increasingly severe. As the saying goes, a dog will always eat shit. As long as they continue to commit crimes, it is only a matter of time before they fall into the law.

As they were talking, the waiter started serving the dishes. Everyone stopped talking about this topic and started eating to their heart's content.

Because we had to take the train to HD soon, no one drank any alcohol and finished dinner within half an hour.

After Yang Zhengke paid the bill, the group took a taxi to the train station.

By the time we arrived at HD, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

So, let’s not talk about the group getting a room to rest for the time being.

…

The next morning.

Jiang Feng repeated yesterday's scene again. After repeated calculations, the locked range became smaller and smaller.

From locking on the north at the beginning, to locking on Hebei Province, and then to locking on HD, followed by Cheng'an County to which HD belongs, and then Beixiangyi Town to which Cheng'an County belongs.

By the time Jiang Feng and his group arrived at Beixiangyi Town, it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

Jiang Feng struck while the iron was hot and finally calculated it again in the same way.

When Jiang Feng raised his head, he saw five expectant faces, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang, I'm glad you did your job well. After this calculation, we finally locked the person.

Let's go and see Brother Yang."

Hearing this, Yang Zhengke and his wife were so excited that they trembled all over.

The three members of the Wei family also became excited. They were about to witness a miracle.

So, Jiang Feng walked in front and the five people followed behind, and they walked towards a place in the town together.

…

Zhang Er Pancake Shop.

Zhang Zhifu stood at the door of the store, smoking and watching his wife kneading dough. The couple has been running this sesame seed bun shop for seven or eight years, and he took over this sesame seed bun shop from his adoptive father.

His adoptive father was named Zhang Pingshan, who died six years ago.

Zhang Zhifu has very complicated feelings towards his adoptive father, including gratitude and resentment.

Gratitude means thanking his adoptive father for raising him and marrying him to a woman who is willing to share hardships with him. Just for this reason, Zhang Zhifu should be grateful to his adoptive father.

The resentment comes from the fact that his adoptive father bought him from human traffickers after all, so he can be said to be aiding and abetting the evil. Even though there would be other buyers if his adoptive father did not buy him, this is not a reason for his adoptive father to aid and abet the evil.

Zhang Zhifu only remembered that he was kidnapped by that hateful woman with a toy gun when he was five years old. Apart from that, he didn't remember anything. He couldn't even remember his own name, let alone his parents' names and home address.

It’s not that he is stupid or has a bad memory, but that the hateful woman is too cunning.

Because Zhang Zhifu had almost forgotten everything about the past, even though he thought about finding his biological parents after he became an adult, he only went to the local police station to file a case and did not take any other action.

He no longer had any hope of ever finding his parents again.

Although he felt regretful, Zhang Zhifu had no choice but to accept this fact.

However, he would occasionally wonder, after so many years, had his biological parents given up on him a long time ago, or were they still searching for him?

No matter they had given up on him or were still looking for him, Zhang Zhifu knew in his heart that unless a miracle happened, he would never have the chance to be reunited with his parents in this lifetime.

Just as Zhang Zhifu was thinking about all sorts of things, his wife Hong Xiuyun said while kneading dough, "Boss, your daughter will come home from school at noon and say she wants to eat lotus root. Go buy some and fry it for her later."

Zhang Zhifu nodded and said yes, then drove the electric car parked at the door towards the vegetable market.

Hong Xiuyun kneaded the dough skillfully while watching her husband leave.

She is actually quite satisfied with her current life. The couple runs this pancake shop. It is hard work, but after working hard from dawn to dusk for a month, they can still earn around 8,000 yuan, which is a very comfortable life in a rural area.

Moreover, her husband is an honest and upright man. He gives her every penny earned from the store and is very good to her and their three children. She is really content to marry such a husband.

The only drawback is that they don't have parents-in-law to help take care of the children. The couple has to deal with their business while taking care of three children. The hardships involved can only be understood by those who have experienced it.

Fortunately, the most difficult time has passed. Now their eldest daughter is in elementary school and their two sons are in kindergarten. They just need to endure a few more years. When the children grow up a little, they will feel a lot more relaxed.

Of course, it was impossible to completely relax. Having two sons would be a headache even for a well-off family, let alone an ordinary family like theirs.

Just as Hong Xiuyun was kneading the dough skillfully, five or six customers suddenly arrived at the door of the store. She quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, dear customers. You have to wait about half an hour for the sesame cakes."

Yang Zhengke took a quick look around the pancake shop and then looked at Jiang Feng.

The other people also made similar movements.

Jiang Feng nodded to them, then looked at Hong Xiuyun and said, "Hello, Madam Boss, we are not here to buy sesame cakes, but to see the boss about something very important. I wonder where the boss is?"

Hong Xiuyun stopped kneading the dough and asked, "My boss is out buying groceries. Do you have anything important to talk to him about? Can you tell me?"

She had no doubt that these people in front of her were going to harm her husband. Because of his tragic childhood experiences, her husband developed a timid and cowardly character. He had never had a quarrel with anyone in more than 20 years. Who would have the time to cause trouble for him?

Moreover, the attitudes of the people in front of her were quite good. Although they looked at her a little strangely, she was sure that they were not here to cause trouble.

"It's like this. We came here from Guangdong Province to look for our relatives. These two are Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang. Their child was abducted by human traffickers when he was five years old. It has been 27 years since then, and we have never been able to find him."

At this point, seeing the boss lady's "face changed drastically", Jiang Feng went straight to the point and said, "Boss lady, it is said that your boss was also kidnapped when he was five years old. It has been 27 years since then. I wonder if that is true?"

As a loving couple who had been married for seven or eight years, Hong Xiuyun naturally knew her husband's life experience and nodded quickly, "Yes, my husband was indeed abducted when he was five years old, and it has indeed been twenty-seven years."

After hearing these words, Yang Zhengke and his wife as well as the three members of the Wei family were so excited that they trembled all over.

Although they all believed in Master Jiang and thought he had the ability to help find Yang Xiao Long, they were still worried until he actually found him.

It was not until the proprietress personally confirmed that the owner of this pancake shop was also abducted at the age of five, and exactly twenty-seven years had passed, that they no longer had any doubts in their hearts and were 100% sure that the owner of the shop was Yang Xiaolong.

Yang Zhengke and the others were shaking with excitement. Jiang Feng was the only one who remained calm. He smiled and said, "Madam Boss, Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang are probably your parents-in-law. Call your boss right now!"

It was the first time since the proprietress knew her husband's background that someone came to her house to claim to be her relative. She was a little panicked and immediately took out her cell phone to call her husband.

As soon as the call was connected, Hong Xiuyun briefly told her husband what was happening here in dialect.

In just over a minute, Zhang Zhifu came back riding an electric bike.

As soon as they parked the car, Yang Zhengke and his wife could not help but move over. Although both parties had not done a paternity test yet, they were certain that the man in front of them was their eldest son, Yang Xiaolong.

Fortunately, they still had their senses and just looked at Zhang Zhifu with burning eyes, and did not go up to call their son directly.

Zhang Zhifu is still a little confused. After all, 27 years have passed. Suddenly, people who are suspected to be his biological parents come to his house to claim him as his relative. Anyone would be confused.

The three members of the Wei family also stared at Zhang Zhifu. They didn't know if it was because of preconceived ideas, but they all felt that the man in front of them looked a bit like Yang Xiaohu who had died unexpectedly a few days ago, and the more they looked at him, the more similar he looked.

Seeing the two sides sizing each other up, Jiang Feng said, "Aunt Yang, quickly bring out Brother Yang's childhood photo."

Qin Xueqin came to her senses and quickly took out a small stack of photos from her bag. She handed them to Zhang Zhifu and said, "This is a photo of my eldest son when he was a child. Can you recognize it?"

Zhang Zhifu took the photos with trembling hands, then lowered his head and looked at them one by one.

Hong Xiuyun stayed by her husband's side silently, but her heart was not at peace.

Soon, Zhang Zhifu saw the last photo. He looked at the other photos very quickly, but he looked at the last photo while thinking about it. The scene in the photo seemed familiar to him, but he could not remember it no matter how hard he tried.

Qin Xueqin quickly reminded him when she saw this: “This photo was taken the year my eldest son was abducted. The set of checkers in the photo was given to him by his aunt. It was his favorite game at that time.”

Zhang Zhifu looked up at the woman in front of him who was probably his mother, rubbed his temple and said, "I have a vague impression of the scene in this photo, but I can't remember the details."
