Fu's house.
Fu Heng dragged his tired body back home, and his eldest son asked him guiltily: "Dad, is there any news about Qingqing yet?"
He paused slightly and slowly raised his bloodshot eyes. He
suddenly slapped Fu Sishen.
"Pa!" The clear slap made even Fu Sishen behind him tremble, which showed how much force his father used.
He shrank his shoulders and did not dare to help plead. His father looked a little scary when he was furious, and it was his brother who made the mistake. If his mother could not be found...
In fact, even he wanted to beat his brother.
"Why did you lose her?"
Fu Heng asked in a deep voice, his eyes were so cold that they made people feel unfamiliar.
"She is your mother, who gave birth to you after ten months of pregnancy. She is not just any child. Even if it is a child who has nothing to do with you, you can't just leave her alone. How will you be responsible if something happens? Fu Sijian, where is your conscience? Has it been eaten by dogs?"
"Back then, your mother had heavy bleeding when giving birth to you, and she almost couldn't be saved. As a result, her health has not been very good in recent years. Now you can get angry with her for a woman and leave her alone in the company... You..."
Fu Heng pointed at Fu Sijian's head with a shaking hand, and he was so angry that he couldn't say anything.
"Get out, and don't come back again."
"Dad..."
Fu Sijian endured his father's repeated questioning, covering his face and lowering his head, not daring to look his father in the eye.
In fact, the real reason was not because of Yu Yu, she was at most a prostitute, but Fu Sizhen did not dare to confess his illness to his family.
So he could only apologize weakly: "I'm sorry."
"If an apology is useful, can it bring your mother back?"
Unfortunately, Fu Heng did not accept it. He looked at his eldest son with an extremely unfamiliar look, and his cold and domineering aura pressed directly on him, almost bending his back.
Just when the atmosphere in the Fu family dropped to the freezing point, a sudden sarcastic voice from the door broke the silence.
"Now you know that you are here to show off your power to your son, why didn't you do it earlier?"
Everyone turned their heads subconsciously, and as expected, they saw Gu Lan appearing outside the door.
In order to find Qingqing, everyone had not slept for a day and a night, and their image was more or less a bit bad.
But Gu Lan looked particularly shabby at this time, as if he had sneaked out of the refugee camp, which was very different from his usual carefully dressed appearance like a peacock.
He was
even a bit of a germophobe.
But at this time, the large amount of dust mixed with sweat on his body formed dirty marks that stuck to his body, but he ignored it.
Only the pink bunny bag in his hand was carefully wrapped in a white silk handkerchief.
"That's Qingqing's bag."
Fu Sishen recognized the owner of this bag at a glance.
He had seen it on Qingqing before.
The green flower hairpin on the bunny's ear was ugly and impressive. As a cartoonist who pursues beauty, Fu Sishen's eyes were obviously burned out of memory.
As soon as they heard the keyword "Qingqing's bag", all the men of the Fu family gathered around Gu Lan.
"Where did you find the bag?" Fu Heng asked anxiously.
"Have you found Qingqing?" Fu Simin's eyes lit up, as if a desperate man suddenly got hope.
"No."
Gu Lan's words shattered the hopes of the father and son, but the next moment, he brought another piece of news that was not sure whether it was good or bad.
"I found this bag on a street in the old city. According to urban surveillance, Qingqing went all the way south after leaving Ajin's company, accidentally walked into the old city, and disappeared inside. Just now, the police also sent news that five other children in that city were missing at the same time, suspected of being abducted."
Abducted!
Everyone's heart was struck hard by a heavy hammer.
They dared not imagine what Qingqing would face if she was really abducted. They did not want
to think about it, but the various news stories they had seen in the past about abducted children being abused by traffickers, having their hands and feet chopped off and forced to beg, or being sold to dirty places as child laborers, and how miserable their lives were, kept circling in their minds.
Fu Sizhen fell to the ground in vain, clutching his hair tightly with both hands, and had collapsed.
"Brother..."
Fu Sizhen spoke hoarsely, clenching and unclenching his hands, and clenching again, over and over again, but still did not know how to react.
Should he hate his brother?
But his elder brother was already in great pain, how could he still blame him.
But if he didn't hate him, he would be a motherless child in the future.
Compared with the two children, Fu Heng and Gu Lan were obviously much calmer.
Fu Heng picked up his phone and called a mysterious person at the first moment. "Hello, it's me, I need your help..."
The call was quickly connected, and the person on the other end complained something in a low voice, and then listened to Fu Heng's request quietly.
But he was scared
awake when he heard half of it: "Find out all the vehicles that entered and left the old city yesterday? How can you check such a large traffic volume? Are you crazy!"
"No need to check all, just check the information of the vehicles coming and going from 8 pm yesterday to the next morning."
It was during this time that Qingqing disappeared from the surveillance.
The police were helping to investigate the entry and exit monitoring of people in the old city, so Fu Heng and his team didn't need to worry about it.
So they simply turned around to check the information of the vehicles coming and going.
Kidnapping six children was too obvious a target.
If they were walking on the road with the children, they would be easily discovered by the police.
But the police haven't found a similar target yet, which means that the children are most likely hidden in a car.
It is even possible that they are no longer in the city.
So they must track the vehicles as soon as possible and find Qingqing.
"Wait a minute." The phone was not hung up. There was a clattering sound of keyboards. In less than ten minutes, there was a reply.
"I found out. You are lucky. There were not many cars in and out of the old city that night. There were only seventeen, three trucks, one van, and the rest were small cars."
"Send me the data."
"Okay, remember to pay me."
"I won't let you down."
The message came from the mailbox. Fu Heng lowered his head and scanned it. Then he picked up the coat he had just taken off and turned to go out.
Seeing this, Gu Lan hurriedly followed.
"Where are you going?"
"The traffic police station."
It is illegal to investigate the private information of car owners without authorization, and how can private means be as fast and efficient as the national specialized departments?
Many people in the police station sensed that this might be a big case, and all the criminal police in charge of the case attached great importance to it, and no one dared to take it lightly.
The active cooperation of the Fu family and the Gu family obviously and effectively increased the progress of the case.
Soon, the police locked the three most suspicious vehicles and activated the satellite monitoring system to track their whereabouts.
One of them was ruled out as a suspect halfway, leaving only the last two, namely the van and a medium-sized truck.
"Act separately!"
Since neither of them can be ruled out as a suspect, just arrest them all first.
If it involves human trafficking, it is likely to cause irreparable losses if it is delayed a little longer.
The police split into two groups. Fu Heng and Gu Lan looked at each other and followed one by one.
Fu Heng chose to follow the team that was chasing the truck, while Gu Lan followed the van.
The two sat in the police car and followed the police
. They both clenched their hands and prayed that Qingqing would be safe.
***
"Huff...Huff..."
Qingqing panted heavily and kept running forward, pulled by Nian Gao.
The chaotic beams of light behind them kept scanning around them, bringing an invisible pressure.
Not to mention the tall figure full of malice. In the middle of the night, it was impossible to see his face clearly. In a trance, Qingqing actually had the illusion that she was being chased by a monster.
"You little bastards, stop right there, don't run!"
He didn't expect the two little brats to be so fast. The human trafficker was chasing them breathlessly.
He was furious and kept cursing, but he sped up without hesitation.
After all, they were adults, and they were taller and longer-legged than children, and they had better physical strength.
The distance between the two sides gradually narrowed...
Seizing the opportunity, the human trafficker suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Qingqing who was at the back!
"Ah——! Let me go! Brother Nian Gao, help..."
Qingqing only felt the back of her collar tightened, and then the whole person was lifted up with great force, her feet were in the air, and she was so scared that she kept struggling and shouting for help.
"Sister Qingqing!" Nian Gao found that Qingqing was captured, and quickly turned back to save her.
He bravely rushed over and bit the human trafficker's arm that was holding Qingqing, causing the human trafficker to scream in pain and let go.
After being freed, Qingqing fell to the ground, her knees hurting sharply, and she was pulled up by Nian Gao.
The two wanted to run again, but the human trafficker, who was aroused by the pain, suddenly went crazy and swept the two children down with a swing of his long arms.
- There was a cliff below!!!
No one expected that the abandoned factory used by the human traffickers to hide people was actually built on the hillside.
The only way from the factory to the outside world is the long winding mountain road and another closed path.
This path was originally open to traffic, but because of its unreasonable design, it not only has many dangerous sharp turns, but also has no reinforced guardrails, which leads to frequent accidents every year. Finally, it was closed by the local government. Qingqing
and her friends chose this path to escape, but they didn't expect that they would be swept off the road and fell off the cliff while entangled with a human trafficker.
Obviously, the human trafficker didn't expect that he would kill two children in a moment of impulse.
His face was pale as he trembled with his legs, his eyes staring blankly at the empty bottom of the mountain, leaving only the mountain wind howling and mournful.
Falling at a high speed, the strong wind whistled in her ears, Qingqing was frightened and her mind went blank, and many pictures and figures seemed to flash before her eyes.
There were Fu Heng's, Gu Lan's, Fu Sijian's and Fu Sixhen's, and finally a young face with a familiar feeling appeared.
It was a very young girl, full of vigor, bright and lovely.
She was smiling at her sweetly and calling her affectionately.
"Fuck."
"Bang!"
Before the body fell to the ground, it seemed to be hooked by something for a moment, slowing down the falling trend.
Qingqing was dizzy from the fall, and it seemed that there were many little stars and birds circling around her head.
After lying on the ground silly and cute for a long time to calm down, she slowly sat up by herself.
The movement was a bit difficult.
It was not because Qingqing was seriously injured, but because the layer of leaves under her body was too thick.
Qingqing's two short legs were deeply stuck in it, and it was really not easy to get out.
"Mmmm..."
A choking struggle came from the side. Qingqing turned her head subconsciously and looked over, but saw nothing.
There was no way. It was still night time, and the moonlight was blocked by the big trees all around. It was normal that there was no light and she couldn't see anything.
Just as this thought crossed her mind, a beam of light suddenly flashed before her eyes.
The familiar flashlight frightened Qingqing so much that her heart jumped. Then countless leaves were dug up from underneath, and a wolf-like head suddenly popped out.
"Huh... I'm suffocating."
"!!!" Qingqing swallowed back the scream that hadn't come out yet.
After recognizing who the other person was, she quickly crawled over using her hands and feet, helping Nian Gao to dig away the leaves that had accumulated on him bit by bit.
It was also at this time that Qingqing realized that the leaves at the bottom of the mountain were much thicker than she had imagined.
It was almost to the point where all the children were drowned.
Fortunately, Qingqing was lighter and did not sink completely when she fell, otherwise it would have been difficult to save herself.
The two children worked together, and finally rescued Nian Gao from the pile of fallen leaves.
"Where is this?"
Nian Gao shone the flashlight everywhere, but all he could see were big trees, and he couldn't tell the direction at all.
Qingqing's focus was a little different.
Her curious eyes kept circling around the flashlight. She couldn't help but reach out and touch it carefully. It was icy cold, and she immediately retracted her hand in fear.
"How could Brother Nian Gao have this thing?"
"This?" Nian Gao raised the flashlight, also a little confused: "I don't know, I just found it while digging in the leaves."
It should be that when the vendor pushed people just now, they were accidentally thrown down.
"What should we do now?"
After being curious, Qingqing also returned to the reality.
Getting lost in the mountains is more dangerous for the two children than being caught by the vendors.
"Let's stay here first." Nian Gao pulled Qingqing to nest in the hole in the leaves they dug out. "It's too dangerous outside. Let's wait until dawn before going out."
"Okay." Qingqing didn't have any better ideas, so she just listened to Nian Gao.
The night was quiet, and the two extremely tired little guys snuggled up to each other, their heads leaning against each other and gradually fell asleep.
Time passed slowly, and dawn came.
Nian Gao was the first to open his eyes, awakened by hunger. He
rubbed his stomach uncomfortably, and looking at the bright sky, he tilted his head to wake up Qingqing: "Sister Qingqing, get up."
"..." No one answered.
Nian Gao, who felt something was wrong, turned around to check on Qingqing, but what he saw was a scalding body.
"It's so hot!"
Qingqing had a fever.
Even the best body couldn't stand the continuous suffering, not to mention that Qingqing was just a three-year-old child with a delicate constitution.
"Help! Help! Help... Help..."
Nian Gao, who had always been calm even after being kidnapped, hugged Qingqing tightly and finally couldn't help crying.
He was afraid that Qingqing would die, but he was helpless.
The unprecedented panic and fear made his hands and feet cold, and he could only cry helplessly and shout for help in despair.
"Bird..." Qingqing seemed to be awakened by Nian Gao's crying. She frowned, slowly opened her eyes, and spoke weakly.
"What? Sister Qingqing, you're awake!" Hearing the voice, Nian Gao lowered his head quickly, and was surprised to find that Qingqing had woken up.
"Little bird..." Qingqing kept repeating this sentence: "Follow the little bird..."
"Little bird?" Nian Gao looked around: "There are no birds here."
Not to mention birds, he didn't even see a bug.
"There." Raising his arm with difficulty, Qingqing pointed to a place.
Nian Gao looked over there, but still found nothing, but he resolutely decided to follow Qingqing's instructions.
Bending down, he carried Qingqing on his back, and stepped on the leaves, moving away from the area little by little.
The two made the right decision to leave, because after a while, a wild beast slowly walked over, sniffing around, as if looking for something.
Unfortunately, it found nothing in the end, and could only leave with regret.
"Sister Qingqing, where are we going next?"
"There."
"Then what?"
"Here."
Under Qingqing's seemingly nonsensical command, Nian Gao and Qingqing really moved away from the forest little by little, gradually approaching a populated area.
As they walked, a slender and strong figure vaguely appeared in front of them.
Nian Gao's eyes lit up, and he shouted for help: "Help... Help..."
From a distance, the man seemed to have heard Nian Gao's cry for help.
He paused, then quickened his pace, and rushed in front of Nian Gao and Qingqing like a cheetah.
As he got closer, Nian Gao could see the man's appearance clearly.
He was tall and straight, with a stern face, and his whole body was filled with a bloody and iron-like aura like a sword drawn from its sheath.
But when those chilling cold eyes fell on Nian Gao, they flashed a little soft, and there was a vague feeling of relief.
Nian Gao opened his mouth blankly, a little bit unbelievable, but tears fell down, and he burst into tears without any warning.
"Wow... little uncle, why did you come so late?!"
"Hold me... "
Before he could finish the word "apology", Nian Gao suddenly stopped crying, and his little body fell straight down with Qingqing on his back, and was immediately caught firmly by a pair of strong hands.
After nervously checking his nephew's condition, he found that he was just fainted from exhaustion, and then Bai Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief.
In comparison, the situation of the strange little girl with a high fever was a little more dangerous.
Picking up the two children with one hand, Bai Qiyu turned around and walked back, while taking out his mobile phone to make a call.
"We found the people, two children, one of whom is running a high fever. Quickly notify everyone and the ambulance to come over. The location is being sent to you now."
The double sirens of the police car and the ambulance broke the tranquility of the small mountain village at the foot of the mountain.
Many villagers curiously poked their heads out to see the bustling scene outside, took a bite of the cool and sweet watermelon, and then shrank back.
After a while, someone else came out again, took out a mobile phone to take a photo and posted it on WeChat Moments.
"What's going on outside?"
The wife, who had not gone out to see, curiously asked her husband who had just returned from the balcony.
"We're catching human traffickers. You don't know that there are actually a lot of human traffickers hiding in the village above us. If a number of kidnapped babies hadn't run out of there today, we probably wouldn't have known that there are such a group of heartless bastards living around us."
"Human traffickers!"
People who heard the news couldn't help but exclaimed, "That's impossible. I've never heard of anyone losing a baby in our village."
"Are you stupid? Even rabbits don't eat grass near their nests. If those bastards dare to steal babies in our area, do you believe that I will bring people to raid their nest tomorrow?"
"Come on, you're so cowardly. You can only show off with words. If something really happens, I'll have to do it myself."
The conversation between the couple was obviously not an isolated case. Many local people gradually learned about this major event.
And as some people reposted the news on WeChat Moments and Weibo, public opinion on the Internet gradually stirred up a storm.
The local police arrived faster than the people notified by Bai Qiyu.
Because the children in front were lucky enough to run away and successfully called the police with the help of kind people.
According to the address written on the paper board the children took out, the police immediately locked the target location.
'Xiaoning Village, No. 338' A cardboard processing factory that had been abandoned for many years.
Time waits for no one, and the police immediately gathered people to go out.
On the way, they also received a call from the police station in other places, saying that they had found that abducted children were being taken by traffickers to escape in their direction.
There are not so many coincidences in the world. Once the two sides worked together, they immediately determined that they were chasing the same gang.
What else is there to say now?
Chase with all your strength!
So the scene in the village at the foot of the mountain happened.
"Qingqing!"
Fu Heng, who arrived a little later, happened to see Qingqing being sent to the ambulance.
His face turned pale and he rushed forward, but was stopped by the nurse on the car: "No one can get close at will."
"I am her husband...elder, this is my child!"
Upon hearing that this was the child's parent, the nurse immediately retracted her hand and motioned Fu Heng to get in the car.
"The child has a high fever, it has reached 40 degrees. She has just been given a fever-reducing injection, but she has other external injuries. The situation is not optimistic. We have to rush back to the hospital to give her emergency treatment."
"Okay... okay, thank you, doctor."
Fu Heng actually didn't pay much attention to what the doctor said. At this time, all his attention was attracted by Qingqing on the stretcher.
He held Qingqing's hot little hand tightly with both hands, and unprecedented fear enveloped his mind.
He didn't realize that he was actually shaking slightly.
"Sir, are you okay?"
The nurse opposite noticed that Fu Heng was not in a good state, and immediately asked with concern.
"..." Fu Heng couldn't answer. He
felt that he had something wrong, something big.
He wished that the person lying on top now was himself, not his young wife.
If...
if something happened to Qingqing, what would he do?
"Qingqing...Qingqing..."
He called her softly, without the coldness of the past. Unfortunately, Qingqing couldn't hear it now.
No, even if she heard it, she might not feel anything.
After all, she was not the Gu Qingqing who loved Fu Heng deeply.
In the corner, Bai Qiyu, who was holding his nephew, glanced at Fu Heng's familiar face, then lowered his head and said nothing.
It seemed that the other party had no time to greet his "old friend" now.
But that child, was she also called Qingqing?
She looked like her, was she her little daughter?
