Xiao Yingchun called Dong Hongwei, who answered the phone immediately.
"Yingchun, come to the Wukesong area in the back mountain quickly. Something has happened."
Xiao Yingchun was confused: "Something went wrong with Wukesong? What's going on?"
Dong Hongwei didn't answer and hung up the phone directly.
Fu Chenan, who came out later, asked, "What happened?"
Xiao Yingchun: "He asked us to go to Wukesong..."
When the couple arrived at Wukesong, they found the situation was very abnormal.
On a snowy night, five pines stood tall. Several researchers were whispering around them, but there were no lights on. The scene looked particularly strange.
Further away were security personnel scattered around, on guard duty.
Dong Hongwei was standing next to the Wukesong tree, whispering something to someone.
Seeing Xiao Yingchun and his wife coming over, he hurriedly called out: "Yingchun, you're finally here..."
"What happened?"
Dong Hongwei lowered his voice and explained quietly.
Because of the snow a few days ago, the back mountain was already covered with snow.
It suddenly started hail just now, and two researchers who were off work from the laboratory on the top of the mountain happened to walk next to the five pine trees. They were afraid of getting hit on the head, so one of them quickly hid in the open space in the middle of the five pines.
The two had a simple idea: the branches in the central open space connected to each other to provide shielding, so that the hail would have a buffer when it hit, and would not injure anyone.
Unexpectedly, one of them disappeared as soon as he entered.
When the other one saw the situation, he was so scared that he collapsed on the spot. After shouting twice and seeing no response, he immediately called for help.
Dong Hongwei knew that the five pines were transplanted by Xiao Yingchun later, and that Xiao Yingchun had the ability to travel through time and space, so he wanted to find Xiao Yingchun first.
Who would have thought that no one answered the phone calls to Xiao Yingchun and his wife, and they were not at home.
He was helpless and could only order people to surround the five pines and prevent anyone from entering, while asking his aunt to stay and wait for Xiao Yingchun to come back...
After hearing the whole story, Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan looked at each other and saw uneasiness in each other's eyes.
They got a glimpse of the magic of Wukesong from the space-time supermarket trading system at home.
It was for this reason that they asked Huo Shaoyuan to help get the five pines back.
But this situation did not occur when the transplant was successful?
Why did it suddenly become like this?
Dong Hongwei was helpless: "This is the situation now: No one dares to go in, for fear that they will not be able to come back."
"You brought this thing back, can you..." help go over and take a look?
Before Xiao Yingchun nodded in agreement, Fu Chenan was the first to object.
"You don't have to go. I'll go."
Xiao Yingchun glared at Fu Chenan, then turned around and started discussing the matter with Dong Hongwei in a friendly tone.
"Look, even though so many people are gathered here, they can't solve the problem."
"How about you let everyone go first, and you stay and discuss countermeasures with us?"
Dong Hongwei of course agreed, and immediately evacuated the crowd and had people cordon off the area around Wukesong with blue cloth.
This will block everyone's sight and prevent anyone from falling in.
After the scene was set up, Xiao Yingchun looked at Fu Chenan and asked, "What's the point of you going there?"
"What if you get lost, what will happen to me and the children?"
Fu Chenan counterattacked: "What if you lose it, what will happen to me and the children?"
Xiao Yingchun: …
She had nothing to say.
Dong Hongwei had already reacted by now.
"I'm also very anxious. This matter is indeed extremely risky. Both of you don't go in yet. I'll ask my superiors what to do..."
Dong Hongwei immediately reported to his superiors via a dedicated phone call, and at the same time told Xiao Yingchun and his wife not to rush in.
Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan would certainly not do anything rash. They stood there and waited for a while. The weather was too cold and Xiao Yingchun started stamping his feet. Dong Hongwei came jogging over again.
"I have asked my superiors for instructions. In order to avoid further losses, no one is allowed to enter here for the time being."
"Try to find out through other channels whether our people have ended up on the other side."
“This is his personal information…”
Xiao Yingchun took the information.
Sun Lei, thirty-six years old, is in his prime.
She looked at Dong Hongwei: "What if his family can't contact him?"
Dong Hongwei smiled and recalled the past: "In our line of work, our families usually can't contact us directly."
"It's normal to only have a phone call every three to five months."
In other words: the scientist's family won't be suspicious for the time being.
"You don't need to think about this in the short term."
"Just try to find that person and see if we can get him back..."
After a pause, Dong Hongwei said in a slightly heavy tone: "If the person is found but can't come back...you should also tell us."
"We will try to communicate with their families..."
Xiao Yingchun understood: "Okay, I'll go ask about the situation first..."
The couple returned home and looked at each other in bewilderment: How should we ask in this situation?
Where to start?
Fu Chenan thought simply: "What else can we do? We can only connect three time and space now."
"The Earth's time and space do not need our concern, there are naturally countries that will worry about it."
"I will go to Tianwu Time and Space first, print out the photos, post them on the notice boards of various state capitals, release the missing person video, and offer a large reward..."
"Go back and ask Huibao to take the information over, and ask your parents or Grandma Fei to try to find the person."
Without waiting for Xiao Yingchun to agree, Fu Chenan suddenly pressed a finger on Xiao Yingchun's lips.
"There is one thing as a prerequisite: the safety of Huibao and his father-in-law and mother-in-law must be guaranteed."
"If this matter poses risks to Huibao and his parents-in-law, and the risks are uncontrollable, we would rather not look for it."
"No one is more important to me than my family."
Xiao Yingchun nodded blankly, feeling extremely sad.
From the perspective of the country, Fu Chenan's words are undoubtedly selfish.
But from the perspective of a son-in-law and a father, there is nothing wrong with it.
Xiao Yingchun understood Fu Chenan's thoughts very well and was grateful: at least she didn't have to make this decision herself, which invisibly reduced her guilt.
No matter how motivated the couple is, it is already late at night and it is impossible for them to look for someone all over the world at night. They have to wait until the next day.
The next morning, Xiao Yingchun, feeling uneasy, hurriedly took Fu Chenan to find Huo Shaoyuan to see if he could help.
As a result, as soon as I arrived at the Huo family, I saw Huo Shaoyuan being pulled by Dong Hongwei to talk.
Dong Hongwei's eyes were bright, while Huo Shaoyuan had a sad face.
"Director Dong, I want to help, but look at me now."
"I'm only in my fifties. Do you think I look eighty?"
Dong Hongwei also heard that Huo Shaoyuan's life span was affected because he revealed too many secrets.
But wasn’t he thinking, “Whether there is a date or not, I’ll give it a try first”?
What if Huo Shaoyuan can help find someone?
Seeing that Huo Shaoyuan was really unwilling, Dong Hongwei was about to retreat, but when he looked up, he saw Xiao Yingchun and his wife walking in.
Dong Hongwei was overjoyed: "Junior sister, you are here too?"
"Are you here for Sun Lei's matter as well?"
Xiao Yingchun nodded and looked at Huo Shaoyuan: "Uncle Huo? Is there nothing you can do?"
"If there is really no other way, we will not embarrass you."
When Huo Shaoyuan saw Xiao Yingchun and his wife coming over, his heart moved.
As the head of a family of metaphysics, he was very familiar with this feeling: a whim.
This matter finally fell on Xiao Yingchun! (End of this chapter)
