Chapter 372: Missing]

"Did you miss the train and catch the next one?"

Mrs. Huo and Mr. Huo came up to them.

Although Huo Qingchi mentioned the time of the train tickets he and Huo Qiuyi booked in the telegram, people in the countryside have inconvenient transportation and there is always a possibility of missing the train.

"Maybe."

Ye Qingyue nodded, she pursed her lips, "Wait for the next train."

Transportation was not well developed in the 1970s. After waiting for half a day, the next train from Jiangcheng to Beijing arrived at the station.

Let the two old people wait by the side, and Ye Qingyue went to look for someone.

However, after searching for half an hour, the crowd dispersed, the platform was much emptier, and Ye Qingyue still did not find Huo Qingchi and Huo Qiuyi.

The three looked at each other.

Ye Qingyue said: "The next train will be late at night."

"Did something unexpected happen?"

This time, Mrs. Huo and Mr. Huo were also a little panicked.

Ye Qingyue said, "Don't worry, I'll call and ask."

She found a staff member at the train station, explained her purpose, and borrowed the train station's phone.

Ye Qingyue didn't know the phone number of the Red Flag Brigade, so she called Xiangyang Village. As luck would have it, a villager she knew was on duty. She asked him for the phone number of the Red Flag Brigade and called.

After nearly an hour of trouble, she finally got in touch with someone from the Red Flag Brigade.

"You asked when the educated youth Huo left?"

The person from the Red Flag Brigade said, "She was picked up by her relatives the afternoon before yesterday. She should have arrived in Beijing today, right?"

"Okay, I know, thank you."

Ye Qingyue hung up the phone, feeling more and more uneasy.

She returned to the platform, and Mrs. Huo and Mr. Huo were still waiting for her.

"What did the Red Flag Brigade say?" Mrs. Huo asked.

Ye Qingyue said, "They said they left the afternoon before yesterday."

Calculating the distance, they should be able to return to Beijing smoothly today.

Why haven't they seen anyone after two trains?

Mrs. Huo said to Mr. Huo, "Call home and ask if Qingchi has contacted them."

If Huo Qingchi was really delayed, he should have contacted his family.

Mr. Huo hurried to borrow a phone, but returned not long after, with a bad expression.

"Home said they didn't contact them." Mr. Huo also realized something was wrong.

The two children didn't get on the train, and they didn't contact their families to explain the situation.

This would never have happened in the past!

What happened?

"How about..."

Mrs. Huo was extremely anxious, "Call the police? Let the police in Beijing contact Jiangcheng to see if they can find out anything."

"But we haven't seen anyone for half a day."

Mr. Huo hesitated, "The police station may not be willing to file a case."

Huo Qingchi and Huo Qiuyi were two adults, not children. They hadn't been in contact for half a day. The police at the police station might think they were looking for trouble.

"Not half a day."

Ye Qingyue took a deep breath. She looked at the two old people with a serious look and said, "It started the afternoon of the day before yesterday."

Mr. Huo was stunned.

"That day was also the day we received Qingchi's telegram."

Ye Qingyue said, "After that day, whether it was Qingchi or Qiuyi, at least no one on our side had contact with them. According to the worst plan, if they really got into trouble, they might not have been in danger today, but the afternoon before yesterday after leaving the Red Flag Brigade!"

Hearing this, the expressions of the two old people also became solemn.

"Go to the police station."

Mrs. Huo no longer hesitated. She said to Mr. Huo, "Old man, you stay here and contact your family to ask them to send someone to guard. If the train picks up the child late at night, go to the police station to cancel the report."

"Yes." Mr. Huo nodded.

Ye Qingyue took Mrs. Huo to the nearby police station and explained the situation.

"Are you too worried?"

After listening to what they said, most of the public security officers thought that the two were worrying for nothing.

Two adults, one of whom is a young man, have not been in contact for a short time. They are not in a hurry to report the case, right?

Ye Qingyue said, "Comrade, one of the missing people is from a business family and was targeted by enemy spies before. I have reason to suspect that the enemy spies did not contact him for so long."

What she said was true. When she was in Xiangyang Village, Huo Qingchi helped the Lu Ai Party to catch enemy spies.

Ye Qingyue was worried that the police would not believe her, so she briefly told them what happened in Xiangyang Village.

The police were skeptical at first, but when they heard that she was also a person involved in catching enemy spies, they immediately believed most of it.

"Hey, young comrade, you look familiar."

At this time, an old policeman holding a teacup passed by, with a newspaper under his arm, and suddenly said: "Are you the one...the one who was in the newspaper some time ago! What's your name? Ye, Ye..."

"Ye Qingyue." Ye Qingyue said.

The old policeman slapped his thigh, "Yes, yes! You are the doctor Ye who participated in the earthquake relief work, right? My son likes you very much. He cut out all the photos of you in the newspaper and secretly put them in his book, haha..."

"Earthquake relief work?"

"That's the doctor Ye!"

"So it's her?"

There is no entertainment in this era. The news and gossip in the newspapers are people's daily topics of conversation. Most of the police officers in the police station have an impression of the news that caused heated discussions in Beijing some time ago.

After knowing Ye Qingyue's identity, they didn't think that Ye Qingyue, who could be in the news, would be bored to report a false alarm.

Immediately, a police officer said, "Okay, we'll help you contact Jiangcheng and see if we can find the whereabouts of the two people."

Ye Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your help."

It has to be said that in this society where relationships are important, fame and strength are the best passes.

Mrs. Huo, who was originally anxious to call her old acquaintances to use their connections, was relieved when she saw this scene.

The police said, "It will take a long time to find someone after receiving the news. If it's fast, we won't get the news until tomorrow. You should go back and wait for contact."

"Okay."

Ye Qingyue and Mrs. Huo left the police station, and the two couldn't help but go back to the train station.

Mr. Huo was still waiting for his family to come to the platform. When he saw them, he asked about the situation.

Knowing that the police station was willing to file a case, Mr. Huo said, "You should go back first. It's useless to stay here." Mrs.

Huo also said to Ye Qingyue, "If there is any contact with the police station, I will find someone to go to your house to report it."

"Well, I asked for leave and I've been at home recently."

Ye Qingyue also knew that it was meaningless to stay here, so she had to go home.

"Why are you back so early?"

Ye Mei happened to be at home and was a little surprised to see Ye Qingyue. She thought Ye Qingyue was going to pick someone up today and would probably be back later.

Ye Qingyue said solemnly, "Qingchi...may be missing!"

Ye Mei was surprised, "What did you say?"

How could he be missing for no reason?

"Did he offend anyone recently?" Ye Mei asked.

"It's hard to say. His business originally involved overseas. He was plotted against in Jiangcheng before. Now..."

Ye Qingyue paused, and a figure suddenly flashed in her mind. Her heart skipped a beat, "Huo Ze...!"
