Chapter 15 Gray Fairy
After reaching an agreement, Zhang Mo left with the three wolf cubs.
They walked through the still-busy restaurant lobby, where employees who were pretending to be busy but were actually gossiping cast curious glances their way, but no one dared to approach and disturb them.
Before leaving, Lang Xing kindly reminded him, "Kid, don't bully people in the lobby. If you want to play, play in this office."
The little boy's spirit bounced and jumped on Mr. Chen's office chair, making the imported massage chair, worth tens of thousands of yuan, creak and groan.
Lang Yue: "Hey, that won't do, we're moving. Find something else to play with."
The massage chair went silent instantly, and the lucky cat's arms began to spin rapidly.
Mr. Chen was so frightened that he fainted.
The four of them went down the escalator. Zhang Mo turned her head and asked, "That child isn't dead yet, right?"
Lang Ri: "I don't think so. It looks like a living ghost to me."
The so-called "living soul" is the soul of a living person. The soul of a dead person is called a ghost, while the soul of a living person after leaving the body is called a "living soul."
Zhang Mo had watched the surveillance footage several times. Although the scumbag father had been extremely violent towards his ex-wife and son, slapping them both hard from the start, it was far from fatal. The child was still sobbing as he was being dragged away by the arm, though he seemed somewhat terrified, his movements slightly stiff.
That must have been the time when his soul left his body.
After getting off the elevator, the four of them went down to the first floor. Zhang Mo pondered for a moment and said, "You guys, go find me a professional to handle this matter, someone who understands metaphysics and can tell fortunes."
The three wolves: "?"
They then realized, "Wait a minute, you actually don't know how to solve this at all?" Zhang Mo seemed too reliable, as if everything was already planned out, making them think that Zhang Mo had already thought of a solution.
Zhang Mo: "Nonsense." She studied computer science in college, not metaphysics!
The closest she gets to metaphysics is the distance between a reader and a novel.
Lang Ridu was puzzled: "No, then how can you be so sure that we can find help to solve this problem?" Judging from her confident way of asking for a price just now, they thought she could solve it by herself in no time!
Zhang Mo said coldly, "If you can't even handle this simple matter, what am I keeping you around for?"
The three were speechless, feeling that the person in front of them was incredibly arrogant!
However, Zhang Mo knew the art of giving a slap followed by a sweet treat, and pointed to a mobile phone store on the first floor: "Find me some helpers, one top-of-the-line iPhone for each of them."
Lang Ri: "That's what we should do."
Lang Yue: "It's not about the phone, I just feel sorry for this child."
Lang Xing: "How could I possibly not tell the boss that Grey Fairy can solve this?!"
.
She tossed them a credit card, and while the three were excitedly activating their new phones, Zhang Mo Googled "Grey Fairy." Her eyes scanned the screen rapidly, absorbing all the information about Grey Fairy.
Hui Xian, one of the "Five Great Immortals" in folklore, has the ability to foresee the future and perform divination.
The "Five Great Immortals," also known as the "Five Great Families" or the "Five Manifestations of the God of Wealth," are—
Fox spirit: a fox.
Huang Xian: Weasel.
Bai Xian: Hedgehog.
Liu Xian: Snake.
Grey Fairy: A rat.
Among them, the gray fairy is the lowest in status. After all, rats are not pleasing animals and are one of the four pests. There is also a saying that everyone shouts to kill rats when they cross the street.
However, Zhang Mo didn't have any species discrimination. Pikachu's prototype is also a mouse, but that didn't stop it from becoming popular all over the world.
She contacted the mother, Ye Fangyu, using the phone number given to her by Mr. Chen.
Zhang Mo: "Hello..."
Before he could even finish his greeting, a slightly hoarse female voice on the other end of the line asked anxiously, "Excuse me, do you have any news about Xiao Hao?!"
Zhang Mo sighed silently.
This mother has likely asked this question countless times over the past three months.
These are the "Purple Ribbon Mothers," a group of mothers who, after ten months of pregnancy, had their children stolen and hidden away.
In some cases, after a divorce, the father gains custody but is refused visitation rights. Others, like Ye Fangyu, have legally obtained custody but were still violently taken away by their husbands.
What's even more ridiculous is that usually, calling the police can't resolve these situations because they're considered "family matters." The only recourse is a lengthy and indefinite legal battle. Worse still, even if the lawsuit is successful, the other party may still refuse to return the child, which is tantamount to repeatedly torturing the child's mother.
It's said that motherhood makes a mother strong, but the presence of a child often makes a mother vulnerable, subjected to repeated trampling by evil people...
"Hello, my name is Zhang Mo." Knowing there must have been some unpleasantness between them, Zhang Mo didn't mention Boss Chen. "I'm an internet worker. I saw the video you posted online. I hope I can provide you with some technical means to find your child. If you don't believe me, I can provide our company's business license..."
Before Zhang Mo could finish speaking, Ye Fangyu weakly said, "I believe you, I believe everything. As long as you can provide useful clues, I'll give you any amount of money."
Zhang Mo: "......"
Clearly, the other party has received many such calls.
He gave her hope time and time again, only to disappoint her again and again.
But she never gave up, and would still beg almost humbly and frantically, "I'll give you whatever money you want."
Zhang Mo sighed again: "I don't want money, but I need some information. Photos of you and the child, and that man's birth date and time, the clearer the better."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, after all, "birth date and time" and the "technical methods" that Zhang Mo had just mentioned seemed completely unrelated.
However, Ye Fangyu still agreed and quickly accepted Zhang Mo's friend request, sending all of these things to Zhang Mo.
When a person reaches a point of despair, they will grasp at anything as hope, no matter how ridiculous it may sound.
Zhang Mo sent her a message on WeChat: "Pack your bags in advance, we're ready to leave at any time."
Ye Fangyu replied with a voice message that sounded like she was about to cry: 【Thank you.】
