go home

The kidnappers seemed to be very familiar with this area, as they actually found such a place to park.

Returning to the car from the driver's seat, Liu Xia saw out of the corner of his eye that the car keys were placed on the right side where the water cup was placed. This person even knew not to insert the car keys into the keyhole to avoid the battery being drained. He was very thoughtful and was obviously prepared to wait for Liu Xia for a long time.

The kidnapper even knew that Liu Xia could fall into a coma at any time, and that each coma would last for a long time. He was someone who knew her current situation very well.

Liu Xia started the car and drove home while thinking about it. Fortunately, she had obtained a driver's license in college, otherwise she really didn't know how to get home.

I haven't eaten for half a day, and my stomach and intestines are now beginning to play a symphony of hunger.

But at that time she didn't have a penny on her, and couldn't even afford a bun. During the brief moments of clarity after the car accident, she had almost no time to deal with her own affairs, and even the meals were prepared for her by Bai Fei.

There was only a faint light in the sky at this time, and the trees on the roadside kept retreating. Liu Xia felt a little sad, and a strong sense of guilt and emotion surged in his heart.

She had never had time to think about these things before. It seemed that Bai Fei had been silently helping her pay for her medical expenses, and then he ran around to so many places for her affairs, but never mentioned it. Now he was even kidnapped because of her.

The corners of Liu Xia's red eyes twitched, and tears unconsciously appeared in the corners of her eyes. The tears rolled around in her eyes and slowly slid down her cheeks. She thought secretly in her heart.

No matter who it is, if the kidnapper really dares to touch Bai Fei, she will kill that person even if she becomes a ghost!

When it was still dawn, Liu Xia returned to the downstairs of the community. The breakfast shops on both sides of the street had already opened, and the ladies were busy inside. The steam rising from the steamers made her feel dazed for a moment.

It was as if they were back in the Colosseum. When they and the other bulls were fleeing, large clouds of hot air like white mist gushed out of the steam pipes, continuously spraying towards them, the fleeing bulls.

Liu Xia didn't stay for long. He parked his car in the underground parking lot of the community and returned to the floor where his home was from the elevator.

The dark black security door was tightly closed, and there was nothing unusual except for a notice on the door demanding payment of property fees.

I used my fingerprint to unlock the front door, and it opened with a click. Everything in the room was the same as before, with only a thin layer of dust on the floor, indicating that the owner had not been home for a long time.

It was as if everything in the room was frozen on the day of the car accident. Her coat and bag were still hanging on the hanger at the entrance, making her feel as if she was in another world.

It looked like no one had come into the house to search. Could it be that those who were determined to get their parents' belongings knew very well that these things were not hidden in the house?

Liu Xia walked into the room and closed the door. Looking at the photo of herself and her parents in the frame at the entrance, she couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook her head. Even the old house had been turned upside down like that. If this thing existed at home, it would have been taken away long ago. After all, her parents had been dead for a year, and she had been in a coma for so long.

I picked up the photo and wiped off the dust. The three people in the photo were looking at the camera with smiles on their faces. It was a family photo taken at a photo studio during the Chinese New Year. They would take a new one every year. It was a family tradition, and it seemed as if it had happened the day before.

"Mom and Dad, I miss you so much." Liu Xia's eyes were slightly red. She gently stroked the photo of her parents hugging her. She choked up and closed her eyes, but she forced herself not to let the tears fall.

She had experienced too many things in the past few months, including several near-death experiences. Even though Liu Xia had not shed a single tear after going through so much in the wasteland world, she almost broke down in tears like a child the moment she saw the photo of her parents.

She quickly controlled her emotions. Bai Fei was still waiting for her to rescue her, and she didn't know when her consciousness would leave her body again. She had to hurry up and solve this problem.

However, there is one thing Liu Xia can be sure of, that is, Bai Fei's life safety should be guaranteed before those people get the "brain source code" left by his parents.

Liu Xia opened the refrigerator, which was still powered on, and found that all the vegetables inside had gone bad. The tomatoes were covered with mold, and even the cucumbers and green leafy vegetables were leaking yellow liquid. The milk and bread had long expired. She couldn't help but feel fortunate that the electricity bill at home was sufficient, otherwise she didn't know how smelly the refrigerator would be.

In desperation, I threw everything in the trash can, found a box of spicy and sour pork bone noodles in the kitchen cupboard, and simply made a bowl of it with hot water to solve the problem of hunger.

Having lived in the wasteland for such a long time, eating all sorts of messy food every day, and even drinking water that was not particularly clean, she had been relying on IV drips to stay alive in the hospital. Her appetite had long been ruined and she had lost all sense of food.

She never ate simple instant noodles like this before, but at this moment, it smelled so delicious that it even aroused her long-lost appetite. The mist was filled with the rich aroma of instant noodles. Liu Xia almost finished the whole bucket of instant noodles in a few gulps, and even the soup made from the seasoning packet was finished in two gulps.

It’s a pity that I can’t bring these things to the wasteland, otherwise Xiao He and Atong would probably like them very much.

Liu Xia got up and walked around the room while eating instant noodles. Although the house looked basically unchanged, traces of tampering could be seen from the details, and it was obviously turned over.

It's just that the translation was done more carefully and subtly, not as exaggerated as the one in the old house. It feels like it was done by two groups of people.

Liu Xia finished the instant noodles, including the soup, and threw them into the trash can. He first returned to the bedroom and took out a spare phone from the bedside table to charge it. It was an old model Apple phone that he had replaced two years ago. There was still a SIM card in it, which was completely fine for daily use. This way, he would not have to worry about running out of money when going out.

No matter how new or valuable the phone given by the enemy is, it is likely to be installed with some eavesdropping or tracking equipment. Apart from necessary communication with the kidnappers, it is best not to use it.

After packing the necessary items, Liu Xia continued to wonder where her parents would put the things.

Logically, it should be hidden in some storage device, such as a mobile hard drive, USB flash drive or computer.

Her house is not big, with only three bedrooms and a living room of less than 100 square meters. In addition to her and her parents' rooms, the smallest room is used by her parents as a study. So no matter how deep this thing is hidden, it can be easily found.

The computer in the study was still there, turned on.

Liu Xia remembered that she usually liked to cover her computer. Obviously, the computer had been turned over and the visitor did not find what they wanted inside. She searched the desk again but did not see anything like a mobile hard drive.

"Could it be in the company?" Liu Xia shook her head to deny the idea. Her cousin Liu Feng should have taken over all the affairs of the company since she fell into a coma. If the source code was stored in the company, it should have been found long ago.

At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed through Liu Xia's mind. She went to her parents' room, picked up the family photo album that was casually placed on the bedside, and turned to the middle page.
