After the agreement was reached, Village Chief Zhao specially arranged for the farm's tricycle to escort them along the way.
When Xiao Jiahua and Bai Keyan arrived at the county town, it was already completely dark.
On the way to her employer's house, Xiao Jiahua felt uneasy. She murmured, "Why did Cuizhi trick the children away? Will she beat them or scold them? It's so dark now, Dabao and Xiao Shitou must be scared..."
As she spoke, her eyes became moist.
There were many mosquitoes in the summer night, so Bai Keyan took off his coat and put it on Xiao Jiahua, saying calmly: "No, Dabao is very brave and will definitely protect his brother."
He held her hand tightly, giving her constant strength.
Cuizhi's employer is a retired female teacher who lives in the faculty and staff family compound.
When Xiao Jiahua and Bai Keyan arrived, four public security officers had already gone ahead and questioned their old employer.
Knowing that Bai Keyan and Xiao Jiahua were the fathers of the missing child, the public security officer also felt sorry for them and told them frankly: "Xu Cuizhi is not here. It is said that she has taken several days off. Her employer does not know that she kidnapped the child."
"How could this happen?" Xiao Jiahua was a little overwhelmed.
The old teacher was also scared. "This nanny lived in our house at the time and was very careful in cooking and cleaning. I didn't expect that she would be this kind of person!"
Bai Keyan interrupted her and asked politely, "Where does Cuizhi go when she rests? Or, does she make any friends during this time?"
The old teacher thought for a moment, "Some time ago, she said she found a rich man who lived in a shantytown. His name seemed to be... Niu Guangkun?"
"What, Niu Guangkun? Isn't he the ex-husband of the same factory director?"
Xiao Jiahua's heart sank, she was familiar with this name.
Niu Guangkun is a brave and aggressive man with a gambling addiction. He is a well-known pauper in the county and a key focus of the public security department.
A month ago, Niu Guangkun broke into the National Cotton Mill and harassed Tong Qifang. He was beaten up by Xiao Jiahua and others and sent to a cell.
Later, when he was out for exercise, he saved a fellow inmate who had fallen into the water, and was therefore given a reduced sentence and released early. Unexpectedly, I had the same problem again right after I came out.
Knowing that the child might fall into the hands of Niu Guangkun, the public security officer's expression became more serious.
"I know where Niu Guangkun lives. I'll take you to find him." said a public security officer.
After Niu Guangkun divorced Tong Qifang, he lost his house in gambling and lived together in a shantytown in the northern suburbs of the city.
The shantytown environment is complex, with winding paths. Not many houses turn on lights at night, the light is dim, and there are debris and shadows everywhere.
Xiao Jiahua, Bai Keyan and four public security officers took some time to find the place after asking several people.
"Open the door, the police are investigating!"
No one answered. The police officers looked at each other and worked together to break down the iron door.
With her hair disheveled, she sat on the ground in fear, trembling, "Gong, Gong'an Zhi..."
A second later, the sound of glass window shattering was heard in the inner room. It was Niu Guangkun who jumped from the third floor and escaped.
Two public security officers immediately chased after her, while the other two stayed behind to subdue Cuizhi.
"Where are Dabao and Xiaoshitou?" Xiao Jiahua grabbed Cuizhi's hair and forced her to face him.
When the police handcuffed her, she was still somewhat confused. "I, I didn't do anything, I don't know anything..."
Bai Keyan went into each room, searching carefully for the child, leaving no corner unsearched.
In the bathroom, Xiao Dabao was tied to the sink, his face and nose were bruised, a thick towel was stuffed in his mouth, and he was banging his head against the wall.
"Dabao!" Bai Keyan hurried over and untied him.
Xiao Dabao ignored the pain on his face and cried anxiously, "Dad, go save Xiao Shitou!"
Under the bed in the bedroom, Little Stone was lying, dying.
Bai Keyan trembled as he carried the child out. Xiao Jiahua rushed over, tears completely out of control, "Xiao Shitou, how are you? Wake up, mom is here to pick you up!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Shitou opened his eyes with difficulty and didn't even have the strength to cry.
"Mom, my stomach hurts..."
After saying this, Xiao Shitou fainted again.
Xiao Jiahua was so upset that she couldn't speak. With hatred filling her heart, she slapped Cuizhi hard in the face.
"Cuizhi, how could you have the heart to do that?!"
