So Xia Xiaoli remembered Xu Xiaosi. That evening, when she came home from school, a boy from the same compound told Xu Xiaosi that her aunt and uncle had their own child and would definitely not keep Xu Xiaosi by their side anymore.
Thinking back to how Xu Xiaosi had cried so much her eyes were red, and how she was still carrying her little schoolbag, it was the weekend and school was definitely not in session.
She felt that the child must have been traumatized, which was why he ran away from home.
Xia Xiaoli walked out of the family compound and anxiously looked around, but she couldn't find Xu Xiaosi.
Thinking that she was carrying a bag, I wondered if she was going to the bus stop to catch a bus.
Xia Xiaoli headed straight for the bus stop. She wanted to walk faster, but she couldn't seem to move quickly.
They were finally approaching the bus stop when they saw Xu Xiaosi board the bus. Xia Xiaoli tried to catch up, but it was too late, and the doors closed.
"Oh no!" Xia Xiaoli watched helplessly as Xu Xiaosi boarded the bus and left alone.
There was no other way but to go back and find someone to stop the bus.
On her way back, Xia Xiaoli walked too fast and didn't watch her step, tripping over a pebble.
She already had difficulty with her legs, and after falling, she felt excruciating pain all over her body.
"Comrade, are you alright?" Li Qingming, who was passing by, saw Xia Xiaoli fall down, walked over, bent down, and helped Xia Xiaoli up.
Xia Xiaoli has fair skin and beautiful, almond-shaped eyes. Her long hair is braided into a long braid.
"Comrade, Sister Xu's niece got on a bus to the city all by herself. Quickly find someone to stop her!" Xia Xiaoli said anxiously to Li Qingming, who was wearing a military uniform. "I saw it with my own eyes. Sister Xu Xiaosi is Chief of Staff Dai's niece. If we don't find her soon, what if she gets kidnapped by human traffickers!"
Xia Xiaoli cried out of self-reproach, regretting why she hadn't stopped Xu Xiaosi when she came out.
"Comrade, don't worry, I'll go find someone right away." Li Qingming saw Xia Xiaoli speaking excitedly. He knew Xu Xiaosi, a family member in the family compound, and had met her a few times before.
There's only one bus here, so Li Qingming thought he'd run straight to the next bus stop and maybe catch up with it.
"Comrade, hurry up and inform the child's parents." Before leaving, Li Qingming directly instructed Xia Xiaoli to inform Dai Fenghe's family.
Xia Xiaoli wiped away her tears and went straight back to the family compound.
After putting the child to sleep, Dai Fenghe went into the kitchen to make breakfast. He started a fire, intending to cook an egg for Xu Miaoya.
After the fire was lit, but before the water boiled, I wanted to go to Xu Xiaosi's room to see her.
The room was empty, and Dai Fenghe was completely blank.
I went out of the room and saw that there was no one in the yard. I went back into the room and looked again. My schoolbag was gone.
Dai Fenghe had a bad feeling; could it be that the child had run away?
Worried, he tried to calm himself down. He couldn't find her in the yard, so he searched the family compound. Maybe she had gone to play with other kids.
I had just stepped out of my house.
"Officer Dai, something bad has happened! Xiao Si got on the bus alone, and I don't know where she's going. I couldn't stop her," Xia Xiaoli said as she ran over to Dai Fenghe.
Upon hearing this news, Dai Fenghe confirmed what he had been thinking.
"When did this happen?" He went into the room for a short while, and the child disappeared.
Huang's wife, who had just returned from buying groceries, overheard Xia Xiaoli's words.
"What!" Huang Yingzi exclaimed excitedly, "What... what if this person encounters human traffickers?"
"I didn't know she was going to take the bus. I can't walk fast, and by the time I went out to look for her, it was too late!" Xia Xiaoli said anxiously to Dai Fenghe.
Upon hearing that Xu Xiaosi had left, Dai Fenghe tried his best to calm down and think things through.
Hearing the noise, Lu Chen came out of his yard and overheard them talking about Xu Xiaosi's disappearance.
"Sister-in-law Huang, what happened? I just heard that Xiaosi is missing?" Lu Chen became nervous when he heard that the child was missing.
Xu Xiaosi is a very well-behaved child. She gets along well with Qiaoyue and often comes to our house to play.
“She went out and even brought a bag, so she must have gone to the station.” Dai Fenghe calmly analyzed the situation and, after drawing his conclusion, looked at Huang Yingzi and said, “Sister-in-law Huang, Miaoya is at home. Could you please take care of her? I’ll be back as soon as I find Xiaosi. Thank you for your help.”
After saying that, Dai Fenghe didn't have time to say anything more and went straight to the military base to borrow a car.
Lu Chen was also worried, so he followed.
Huang Yingzi carried the things and headed to Dai Fenghe's house. Xu Miaoya was still in her postpartum period and definitely needed someone to take care of her.
Shen Qiaoyue, who was still dreaming, couldn't sleep after hearing the noise from the family compound.
After getting up, I went out of the house and into the yard, and saw a few women chatting not far ahead.
Shen Qiaoyue looked into the house. Logically, Lu Chen should be home at this time.
Out of curiosity, Shen Qiaoyue stepped out and slowly approached the group of people.
"Sister-in-law Shulan, what's wrong?" Everyone was talking at once, and Shen Qiaoyue couldn't quite hear what they were saying.
Upon closer inspection, they saw a beautiful young woman crying, and everyone was comforting her.
This was the first time Shen Qiaoyue had met this girl.
"Xu Meizi's Xiao Si ran away from home early this morning with her schoolbag on her back. Xiao Li tried to stop her, but she couldn't!" Xiang Shulan said to Shen Qiaoyue with a worried expression.
"Xiao Si ran away from home?" Shen Qiaoyue asked, her eyes wide with disbelief and her tone of confirmation.
