On the other side of the phone, Kong Antong entered the live broadcast room holding the last glimmer of hope. He secretly made up his mind that if there was no solution tonight, he would commit suicide and then fight that thing in the underworld.
Su Yan looked at the man's dark circles and the strong aura fluctuating around him, and frowned slightly. It seemed that he had reached a desperate point and might do something stupid at any time.
The man saw Su Yan and quickly lowered his voice: "Master, I didn't mean to talk to you like this. It's really that person is right next to us. If he hears our conversation, he will definitely attack my child."
He was now standing on the edge of the cliff, and after a brief greeting, he began to tell about what was troubling his family.
Starting about a week ago, his daughter began staying out longer and longer.
At first he thought his daughter was just playing around. What could a first-grade kid do?
Until five days ago, when his wife was washing clothes for their daughter, she found paper money and white cloth in his clothes pockets.
The only way these two things appear is at someone else's funeral.
He was furious at the time, thinking that his daughter was ignorant and had picked up some unlucky things from someone else's funeral. He planned to wait for his daughter to come back from school and talk to her about the customs.
After waiting for a long time until night, Kong Antong was shocked when he saw his daughter.
I saw that my daughter was wearing men's clothes, and the braids she had managed to grow had become a flat top.
The clothes could be understood as her changing with others for the sake of novelty, but the hair cutting was really inexplicable. He remembered clearly how much importance his daughter attached to her hair, and she would be mad and cry if anyone touched it.
He subconsciously thought that his daughter was being bullied at school, and without even asking about paper money and white cloth, he simply hugged his daughter in his arms to comfort her.
However, the daughter showed great abnormality. She did not respond to her father's concern at all. She pushed her father away and went straight back into the house, locking the door.
This action made Kong Antong even more anxious. He called his wife who worked in the hospital and asked her to come back as soon as possible.
After his wife came back, the two of them took out the spare key and gently opened their daughter's door.
Through the tiny gap, they could clearly see that their daughter was wearing a white dress, kneeling solemnly on the ground, muttering something.
"You can leave without worry. I will accompany you in a few days."
He reached out and covered his wife's face as she was about to scream: "Don't get excited yet. We don't know what our daughter's condition is yet. If we disturb her rashly, she might get hurt."
The two closed the door and returned to the bedroom, carefully reviewing their daughter's abnormal behavior in recent times, but found nothing.
Both of them are busy with work and can only have brief contact with their child at night, so they have no idea about their daughter's specific social situation.
For their daughter's safety, they put aside their decision and asked for leave from the company.
They stayed awake that night, sitting in the living room looking at their daughter's room, ready to rescue her at any time.
Early the next morning, they called their daughter's class teacher and told him that their daughter had cut her hair. They hoped that he would not make it public so as not to disturb the person behind the scenes.
They finally waited until school was over and saw their daughter and another little girl walking into the alley together.
They also knew that girl, who was their daughter's best friend. The two of them were inseparable all day long and would share any good things with each other.
They thought the other party's parents might not be aware of this, so they turned on the video on their mobile phones to give them a reminder.
The two little girls walked calmly into the deserted alley and took out a black package from a corner, which was filled with white cloth and paper money.
The two of them put on white mourning clothes, set fire to banknotes and yellow paper, and then began to cry.
After the things on the ground were burned out, the two of them kowtowed three times before taking off their clothes, putting away the things inside and putting them in the old place.
After they were done, the two of them walked out of the alley without any communication, as if they didn't know each other.
Yang Xinrou leaned on her husband personally. Although he had not attended many funerals, he could clearly realize that what his daughter did was standard funeral etiquette.
Kong Antong's face was also full of depression. He knew that his daughter might have encountered more difficult problems.
After the two men followed their daughter home, they did not dare to ask her too many questions and could only pretend that nothing had happened.
The next day, he found his daughter's friend's parents with the video.
From their surprised expressions, Kong Antong realized that the two had not noticed anything abnormal about their daughter.
But this is understandable. Their daughter did not have any particularly obvious abnormal reactions, so it is inevitable that the parents did not notice it.
Just as they were discussing how to deal with the matter, something happened to the two children.
When Kong Antong saw the teacher's number, his heart sank. He quickly answered the phone: "Teacher, what do you want to talk to me about?"
The teacher's voice was filled with anxiety: "Mr. Kong, I want to ask, did you send your daughter to school today? It's second period now, and she hasn't come yet."
Kong Antong looked at the two people who were equally worried and asked tentatively, "Did Xu Qi not go to school either?"
The teacher's voice became much louder: "How did you know? I was just about to call her parents."
Kong Antong did not explain the reason: "Please wait in the school for a while, we will be there soon."
Along the way, the four of them were extremely anxious and wanted to fly to school immediately.
The teacher and the principal were also standing at the door, looking out, hoping that the parents would show up soon.
After the two groups met, they exchanged the information they had without even exchanging greetings.
Kong Antong came to the alley yesterday with a faint hope. Unfortunately, there was no child in the alley, and the package they had placed in the corner was gone.
Afterwards, they, together with the police and other school staff, conducted a carpet search around the school and finally found the two people in a dilapidated house.
The two men were still wearing white mourning clothes, sitting on the ground facing each other, with a knife beside them.
Kong Antong recognized that it was the kitchen knife from home, and a bad thought arose in his mind: Could it be that his daughter was going to commit suicide?
Thinking of this, he rushed forward, put away the knife, and held his daughter to carefully check if there were any other scars on her body.
Although the person was found, Kong Antong was still worried. He knew clearly that if the real culprit was not found, something might happen to his daughter at any time.
After taking his daughter back home, he asked for leave for her and he and his wife kept an eye on her day and night.
But they still underestimated the ability of the person behind the scenes, and their daughter actually slipped away under their noses.
