Li Xiyue's voice trembled, and her hands gripped tightly to the front of her clothes.
She shook her head and said, "Impossible... My mother can't be dead... She can't die!"
"I finally found her and saw her again after all this time. We've just started to have some good days together, and she can't just leave like this!"
Mi Bao said, "Don't worry! Let me check the surveillance footage! I was so busy I forgot, I forgot, there used to be surveillance cameras here!"
It quickly retrieved the video recorded by the pinhole camera.
The large screen in the space is just one large screen, and it usually only displays the footage from the few cameras that they consider important. The settings of the less important cameras are not displayed on the large screen.
However, this information can be retrieved from the repository.
Li Xiyue said, "Quickly search! See how they left here?"
Mibao found footage from several surveillance cameras installed at the Li family's home.
It simultaneously displays the footage recorded by these cameras in separate sections on a large screen.
The large screen showed Li Wenbo and Cheng Xiaohui cooking in the kitchen.
Just as the couple were chatting and cooking, the neighbor's child ran in and said something to Cheng Xiaohui.
Then, Cheng Xiaohui immediately dropped what she was holding and ran out.
Li Wenbo closed the stove lid, put the griddle aside, and ran out after him.
The security camera installed on the gate captured footage of the neighbor's child and Cheng Xiaohui running away together, with Li Wenbo following closely behind.
However, there were no security cameras installed in the alley, so they didn't know where Li Wenbo and Cheng Xiaohui had gone.
However, Li Xiyue recognized this child!
She said, "I know this child! He's the grandson of the Zhao family from a few alleys ahead!"
As she spoke, she ran outside, knowing whose child it was, and went to that house to find the child and ask for details!
Mi Bao comforted Li Xiyue, "Don't worry. You see, things aren't what we expected."
Li Xiyue said, "But why can't I find them?!"
This was what she feared most: the search system couldn't find them!
She ran to the Zhao family's house. This family lived in a large courtyard, where each room belonged to a different family.
Li Xiyue pounded on the door.
At this time, every household has already closed their doors. After finishing their meals, they wash up and go to bed.
A woman's voice came from inside the room, "Who is it?"
Li Xiyue said, "Sister Zhao, it's me! I've come to ask your Er Mao, where did he go to my house to call my parents? Someone saw him calling my parents and leaving together!"
Sister Zhao opened the door and listened to Li Xiyue's words in surprise. She said, "My Er Mao called your parents away, really?"
She turned to ask Er Mao, who was already lying in bed.
Er Mao crawled out of bed, scratched the few sparse hairs on his head, and said, "Well... I was the one who asked Uncle Li and Aunt Li to go out..."
Li Xiyue hurriedly asked, "Where did you take them?"
Er Mao looked at Li Xiyue with a blank expression, a hint of evasion flashing in his eyes.
Li Xiyue instantly caught that expression; it was the kind of expression a child would often make after doing something wrong!
She pressed, "Tell me quickly, where did you take them? They haven't come back yet, it's so late!"
Sister Li walked over and slapped her child on the back of the head. "I told you to speak! What were you calling your Uncle Li and Aunt Li for?!"
Er Mao, having been beaten by his mother, shrank back and rubbed the back of his head.
He said, "Well... some uncle who drives a car told me to go to them and tell them I was in a car accident... and then he gave me some candy... You were in a car accident?"
His mother usually doesn't let him eat candy, saying that it will cause cavities.
You can earn a few dollars just by running over and saying a few words. Who wouldn't be confused by this kind of business?
So he went to the Li family home and told Aunt Li and Uncle Li that Li Xiyue had been in a car accident.
When Li Xiyue's parents heard the news, they were so frightened that they ran with him to the street corner.
Er Mao's job was simply to lead the people out. He ran to the car, reached out to the uncle for candy, and then ran away.
He didn't know what happened after that; he was busy running home to eat candy!
There were eight pieces! A whole handful of candy! He only ate two pieces, and hid the rest in his pocket.
Sister Li slapped her son on the back of the head again, "You little rascal, you're not learning anything good! You took a few pieces of candy and went to inform on them! Do you even know if that person is a good person or a bad person?"
Where's the candy? How much candy did you sneak this time? Even if your cavities get worse, don't cry out in pain!
She was so disappointed in him! Her son already had bad teeth, and she never gave him candy, but this still happened!
Li Xiyue immediately understood what was going on. She asked, "What did the uncle driving look like? What did the car look like?"
Er Mao, crying as his mother hit him, said, "That was a green car... and there was a man in it..."
Mibao said in the space, "What kind of question is that? Does Uncle have any women?"
Li Xiyue said, "Stop making noise!"
She continued, "What did that uncle look like?"
Er Mao was stumped by the question. What was he supposed to say? What did that uncle look like?
He counted on his fingers and said, "That uncle has... two eyes, one nose, one mouth, and two eyebrows..."
In the space, countless black lines appeared on Mi Bao's forehead.
With looks like that, it would be a miracle if he and Li Xiyue could even find him!
He said to Li Xiyue, "I guess his descriptive ability is just so-so; he can't really describe what that person looks like."
I wonder if anyone has seen that person. It would be great if an adult had seen them. At least they could describe what the person looked like.
Li Xiyue said, "Isn't that green car a Jeep? And the man driving the Jeep..."
She quickly narrowed down the range of people she knew.
After all, not many people she knew owned a Jeep.
And this person also needs to know where she lives.
She then asked, "Er Mao, how old is that uncle? Is he older or younger than your father?"
Er Mao said in a childish voice, "He's not as old as my dad! He looks quite young!"
Mi Bao said in the space, "Look at Er Mao's dad's face, tsk tsk, he's getting stabbed even while lying down, and the one dragging the knife is his own son! Hehe!"
I don't know why, but this kid has a funny way of talking. This kind of ruthless character who can even hurt his own people when he gets vicious is his type!
Li Xiyue reached into her pocket and took out several photos from her spatial storage.
She placed several photos in front of Er Mao and said, "Take a look, is that person in these photos?"
