Chapter 163: Eyes Wide Open - The Sickly Young Girl Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard

It took Cen Xi and Lin Qing a while to digest this news.

"When did Su Dazhuang go missing?" Lin Qing asked.

"He said he went out in the afternoon and never came back!" Aunt Li's brows tightened even more!

"Is that so?" Lin Qing swallowed and said vaguely.

Lin Qing looked at Cen Xi again, and Cen Xi happened to look over at her as well. Even if Aunt Li was not very sensitive, she could still sense that something was amiss.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to go look for him?" Aunt Li thought they didn't want to help. After all, Su Dazhuang was not a very likable child.

Lin Qing felt that Aunt Li seemed to have misunderstood something, and quickly said, "No, no, it's..."

She seemed to be hesitant to speak, not knowing whether to say it or not, and looked at Cen Xi anxiously.

Cen Xi also roughly understood what she meant. He looked out the window and heard the sounds of hustle and bustle outside. He estimated that Aunt Li had already called a lot of people before coming to them!

He finally made a decision and nodded to Lin Qing.

After Lin Qing understood his meaning, he quickly approached Aunt Li and said, "Aunt, I want to tell you something."

Aunt Li knew that something was wrong between the two of them. It must be related to what she said. "What is it?"

"The thief who came to our house this afternoon was Su Dazhuang!" Lin Qing whispered in Aunt Li's ear.

Aunt Li widened her eyes in surprise, looking at Lin Qing and then at Cen Xi in disbelief.

Cen Xi saw her looking at him and nodded.

"You mean...really?"

"Um."

Aunt Li's mood at this moment was a little complicated, but she also had a vague feeling that her heart, which had been hanging in the air for a long time, had finally settled down!

It is indeed like that!

She also did not ask Lin Qing and his wife how they knew it. After all, it was impossible for the two of them to wrongly accuse someone for no reason!

It turns out that she had been worried for so long because she was worried about a thief?

Once she thought about it, she understood why Su Dazhuang didn't come back.

After returning from the supply and marketing cooperative, Aunt Li also heard Gu's daughter-in-law talk about their family being robbed. She heard the entire process, including how Gu Hang went out to chase the thief but failed to catch him!

Could it be that Su Dazhuang thought that Gu Hang recognized him?

That’s why I didn’t go home. Or rather, I didn’t dare to go home!

Lin Qing saw Aunt Li standing there in a daze, and suddenly he didn't know whether it was right or wrong for them to tell this matter!

"Auntie Li, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm fine!" Aunt Li waved her hands tiredly.

"Forget it. We have to find the child first no matter what. Mr. Cen, if you don't want to come with us, you don't have to come."

Cen Xi thought about it and said, "Let me go together, Mom. You are right. We should find the child first no matter what!" It is better to be sociable at this time!

"Yeah! OK!"

When Aunt Li walked out of the Cen family's house, she was no longer as nervous as before. At this point, she had probably guessed why Su Dazhuang had no reason to go home, so she was a little more calm than before when she knew nothing.

Soon all the young men in the compound gathered in the front yard.

"I think everyone knows what we are going to do? Then I won't say more. Let's split up and search the nearby streets!"

"Good!" Everyone responded!

Aunt Li also went with them to look for someone, but before leaving, she looked at Gu Hang a little embarrassedly.

When she went to find Gu Hang just now, she saw that he was still angry about the thief in the afternoon and was in a depressed mood. She couldn't tell him that Su Dazhuang was a thief at this time. After all, when she thought about why Lin Qing and the others pretended to be silent even though they knew about it, she knew that this matter was a little difficult to handle!

Even if she knew that Su Dazhuang was the thief, even if she knew that the Gu family had already gone to the police station to report the police with her in the afternoon!

But, but, Su Dazhuang was just a little kid of ten years old, and he didn't steal much. He didn't touch any cash, just some food. He couldn't be sentenced to any crime at all. Besides, he was not old enough, so he didn't even need to go to juvenile detention!

Therefore, Aunt Li immediately understood why Lin Qing and his wife did not speak out about this matter.

Su Dazhuang is a naughty kid who is not afraid of anything. It can be seen from the way he took revenge on Wang Qiaomei that this kid is not a good person and always has evil intentions in his mind. It is hard to say that this theft is not related to revenge!

If Lin Qing and her husband told the story, they would face retaliation, so she chose to keep it secret.

At the Su family, Qin Xianglian followed Aunt Li out to look for someone, and Aunt Su stayed at home to look after Su Erzhuang.

Aunt Su sat at home for a long time and finally came back to her senses from her panic. She suddenly remembered the burglary at the neighboring Gu family in the afternoon, and then she remembered a detail: Gu Hang seemed to have said that the thief looked like a child.

Boom boom boom~~

Aunt Su seemed to understand something all of a sudden. Could Dazhuang be the thief?

Aunt Su was so scared that her hands started shaking. No way?

She wanted to say no, but she knew her grandson well, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that these two things were not a coincidence!

Lin Qing also stayed at home. She did not go out with them. Cen Xi did not want her to go out with him. Lin Qing herself did not really want to go, so she just stayed at home!

She was praying at home that they would find the person as soon as possible, otherwise she would have a restless night and had to go to work tomorrow!

If the person is not found, it will probably take a long time!

On the other side, Cen Xi and Aunt Li split up and started searching in every street!

"Su Dazhuang!"

"Su Dazhuang!"

"Su Dazhuang, where are you?"

"Da Zhuang! Where are you? Come out quickly, mom is here to see you!"

However, they couldn't find the family after searching for a long time, and instead disturbed many neighbors on the street.

"Who are you looking for?"

"We are looking for a child in the yard. He went out this afternoon and never came back!"

"Was he kidnapped?" The neighbors also became nervous!

The appearance of a kidnapper is no small matter. If one child is missing, two can be missing. This matter cannot be underestimated!

"I don't know yet!"

"Did you go to the police station to report the case?"

"Oh, yes, report the case to the police station! Did Aunt Li report the case to the police station?"

Cen Xi shook his head, "It seems not!"

He thought that before entering his house, Aunt Li might have thought about going to the police station to report the case, but after coming out, the idea was not so strong and she probably forgot about it!

"Should we go to the police station and report the case first?"

"Okay!" Cen Xi nodded.

It's not a good idea for them to keep searching like this. Maybe if the police join in, they can search faster!
