Lin Ye strode over to Kun Kun's side, just like Luo Jun, he was very curious about why Kun Kun was on the mountaintop.
Kun Kun wiped his nose and said, "A bespectacled grandpa brought me here. He was really strange. After he rescued me from the big pit, he was originally going to take me to the peach grove to find my teacher. We even chatted on the way. Then, for no apparent reason, he brought me to this tea garden, made me stand on the top of the mountain, and said that you would definitely find me in the end."
"How can this person be so irresponsible!" Lin Ye frowned.
Although the tea garden is not very far away, the location of that pit should be closer to the peach grove. Why would he choose the far one instead of the one that is closer?
Kun Kun noticed Lin Ye's displeasure and said with a grin, "Uncle Lin, don't be angry. Didn't you find me? That grandpa seemed quite kind, wearing glasses and looking very knowledgeable. He said that if you want people to find you, stand at the highest point, the most conspicuous place, and someone will eventually see you. If you don't want to be found, just blend into the crowd..."
Seeing him talking non-stop and even speaking up for the people who took him away, Luo Jun interrupted him, saying, "Alright, you know how much trouble you've caused. Almost the entire team has come looking for you. You're such a worry."
Kun Kun was scolded by his father and immediately felt wronged. "I didn't do it on purpose. It was Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan who insisted on taking my sweet potato, which made me lose my way."
Upon hearing this, Du Wenbing quickly squatted down, grabbed his shoulders, and shook him. "What? Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan stole your sweet potatoes? Tell me the details."
They didn't say that when Du Wenbing questioned them.
Kun Kun then recounted the whole process to everyone.
It turned out that Kun Kun had just finished urinating and was about to walk back when Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan appeared and snatched the sweet potato from his schoolbag.
This sweet potato is for lunch; if it's taken away, we'll go hungry, so Kun Kun naturally has to take it back.
Who would have thought that Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan, who were always at odds, would cooperate so well this time, working together to deceive Kunkun further and further away. In the end, they even threw the sweet potato into a big pit and, when he wasn't paying attention, pushed him in as well.
"Kun Kun, you can't just say things like that. Did Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan really push you?" Du Wenbing pressed repeatedly.
Kun Kun puffed out his cheeks and stomped his feet, "I was just talking nonsense about turning into a puppy. I remember when I chased them, I even threw mud at them. I bet there are still mud stains on the back of their clothes!"
Everyone was furious when Kunkun said it so firmly. They never expected that two little kids would do something so heinous.
Unfortunately, none of the family members came to look for Kunkun, and the reputations of the Zhou and Xu families in the village were getting worse and worse.
Lin Ye clenched his fists, feeling resentful, but he had to restrain himself in front of the two children.
After he sent Wang Guangming and the others back, he, along with Du Wenbing, took Kunkun back to school.
They wanted to confront Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan, but the teacher told them that the two had already left.
Lin Ye glanced casually at the principal's office and noticed that Qi Wei had already returned to school before them.
He followed us the whole time we were looking for him. He should have shown up when he saw Kunkun, so why did he come back early? Could it be that he let Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan leave school early?
Lin Ye was puzzled and told Du Wenbing about his doubts.
After much deliberation and considering the cause and effect, the two came to a terrifying conclusion: this incident was likely a malicious act of revenge by Qi Wei against Kun Kun, done on purpose.
Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan were merely his tools.
Having figured this out, all they needed to do was go and verify it with the two children.
Soon, it was time to leave school. Du Wenbing, along with Kunkun and Lin Ye, returned to the Victory Brigade.
When Kunkun returned home, Li Fang and Aunt Luo were overjoyed and wept, hugging him tightly and unwilling to let go.
After seeing her grandson, Aunt Luo thanked Du Wenbing and Lin Ye profusely. If Luo Hao hadn't stopped her, she would have almost knelt down and bowed to them.
Li Fang's attitude was indifferent and her smile was stiff, but she ultimately did not say that the child was lost because of their poor care.
Anyway, the child was found, so she stopped pursuing the matter, but a knot remained in her heart.
When Luo Hao heard Lin Ye mention that Kun Kun might have been framed, he immediately clenched his fists, indicating that he wanted to confront the two children.
Since the Zhou family lived nearby, they went there first.
It was evening, and Guo Hongxia and her daughter-in-law were cooking in the kitchen, while Zhou Changsheng was resting under the eaves with his eyes closed.
Zhou Xiaochuan was doing his homework while lying on a chair when he saw a group of people walking towards them menacingly.
He sensed something was wrong and, like a monkey, hid behind Zhou Changsheng.
"Zhou Xiaochuan, why are you hiding? If you have the guts, push me into this pit. If you don't, admit it!" Kun Kun said smugly, hands on his hips.
He has powerful backers now, so he's not afraid of Zhou Xiaochuan at all!
With such a commotion, Zhou Changsheng had no choice but to open his eyes, and the rest of the Zhou family members also came out of the house.
Guo Hongxia, wearing an apron around her waist, stepped forward and said, "What are you doing? There are so many of you, are you going to fight? Don't think that just because we're out of power now, we're easy to bully!"
Looking at the family's ugly faces, Luo Hao was so angry he wanted to beat them up. He stepped forward and questioned Zhou Xiaochuan, "Did you and Xu Bowen push Kunkun into the pit together?"
"Uncle, what are you saying? I don't understand. Why would I push Luo Kunkun for no reason?" Zhou Xiaochuan said innocently.
Du Wenbing knew Zhou Xiaochuan's personality best; he could tell he was lying just by looking at the way Zhou Xiaochuan was clasping his hands together.
He stepped forward, squatted down in front of Zhou Xiaochuan, and said as kindly as possible, "Xiaochuan, I know that although you are usually naughty, you would never push someone into a pit and then leave them alone. Someone must have taught you to do this, right?"
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Ling pulled Zhou Xiaochuan behind her and said bluntly, "Teacher Du, what are you doing? Xiaochuan already said there's nothing left, and you're still trying to mislead him. What does a child like him know?"
Du Wenbing's temper flared up as well. "Didn't Xiao Chuan say anything? Do you need to speak up for him? Luo Kunkun is missing, and he is a prime suspect. If he doesn't cooperate in answering my questions, we'll just have to wait for the police to be notified."
If you want to stop him from asking questions, don't blame him for making a big fuss.
If this is a conspiracy, someone must be held responsible.
Zhou Xiaochuan hid behind Zhou Ling, his body trembling like a leaf. "Auntie, I don't want to see the police."
Zhou Changsheng, who had witnessed all of this, seemed to understand what had happened. He immediately pulled Zhou Xiaochuan onto his lap and said in a stern tone, "Try calling me that. If anyone scares my grandson, I'll fight them to the death."
