Lost the child?
This is a big deal!
Lin Yi stopped the spoon in his hand and asked: "How many children were lost?"
Cao Dahua took out his fingers and counted them, and said: "There must be at least seven or eight. "
Lin Yi suddenly stood up, stared at Cao Dahua and said loudly: "Why did you realize that we lost so many children?"
Although he was scolded by Lin Yi in person, But Cao Dahua was not angry and replied: "Brother Lin, sit down, this is the case. I was not responsible for this case of missing children, and several children were lost in neighboring cities..."
“There’s more than one lost child?”
“Don’t worry, just listen to what I have to say. Think about it, what kind of case will come into my hands? A difficult case? The detective was unable to solve the case, so he handed the case over to me. When I finished looking through the files, someone suddenly came to report the case, and I realized the seriousness of the case, so I immediately reported it to the police. I’m thinking of you, Brother Lin.”
Hmm...
My thighs look really thick!
"Have you brought the case file? If you are investigating the case, this case file is more important than you."
Cao Dahua said with difficulty: "Brother Lin, it's not that you don't know, we The patrol department has rules. To check the case files, you have to go to the docket. It would be difficult to bring the files out."
Lin Yi said angrily: "Didn't you say you are very popular? , you can’t communicate with the person in charge of the archives.”
“It’s just difficult to communicate. The people in charge of the archives are all chief bookkeepers in the yamen. , Besides, we are still on duty in turns, our status...wait a minute!”
Cao Dahua suddenly remembered something.
"My dear, the person on duty during these days is none other than Chief Duo Londo!"
Lin Yi slapped the table and imitated Cao Dahua's words and said: "It's all Those who have been to Rugui Tower together are buddies who are stronger than real brothers. Your business is my business, and your business is also his business.”
“That’s right! ”
......
At noon.
The door of Lin Yi’s shop was closed.
Cao Dahua and Duolong sat at the table and watched Lin Yi carefully review the case files.
"Brother Cao, the taste of this water doesn't seem right."
"This is not tea, this is wine, good wine."
" What kind of wine is this?"
"Brother Lin said it was for replenishing wine."
Lin Yi handed the file to Duolong and said, " Brother Duolong, I have finished reading it. You can take it back."
"Okay." Duolong quickly put the file away and said, "I'm taking it out at the risk of losing my hat. Yes, but who wants us to have a good relationship? I will go back and put the case files away before anything goes wrong."
Lin Yi just left.Then he asked Cao Dahua to go out with him.
"Where are we going?"
"To the south of the city."
......
The two walked together from the shop Go south of the city.
"Brother Lin, why are we going south of the city?"
"I have read the files. Although the places where the children were lost are different, connecting these places, the radius The area covered by the circle is the place where human traffickers are most active."
"The south of the city is so big, where can we find it?"
"Just the most recent place where the children were lost. I started looking for the two companies in the city, and they were both in the south of the city, and they were not far apart.”
“I remember that after I took over, I was the newspaper official of these two companies, one brother and sister. There is also a little girl. Do you know who that little girl is? "Isn't she called Yiyun?"
"It was us on the street that day. The little girl named Yunyun I met. "
"What?"
...
Twilight fell and the stars dimmed.
I visited two houses and inquired about the situation in detail, but did not find any substantial clues.
I also asked many surrounding people, and they all said that they had no impression of anyone being particularly suspicious.
After coming out of Yunyun's house, Cao Dahua saw Lin Yi looking at the south gate in the south of the city, thoughtfully.
"Brother Lin, what, you suspect that the person who abducted the child took the child out of the city?"
Lin Yi shook his head and said: "It's not suspicion, it's intuition. If If you stay in the city with your children, you will be very conspicuous. Once you shout, it will be difficult for the traffickers to escape. It is so close to the south gate. If you lure the children out of the city gate, everything will be under the control of the traffickers. ."
"Brother Lin, what you said makes sense. Otherwise, we will go outside the city to look for it tomorrow. I know there are many farmlands on the outskirts of the city and there are many farmers living there. We will go there early tomorrow morning. Ask there."
"No, go now."
"It's almost the second night!"
"Brother Cao, life is at stake. God, those are human traffickers. God knows what they will do to those children. One moment earlier, they will be safe, one moment later, they may be killed."
"Lin! Brother, you are right, let’s set off now!”
......
When we arrived at the south gate, the city gate was closed.
"Who is coming? The city gate has been closed. Please go back and come back tomorrow morning to leave the city."
Cao Dahua showed his badge and said loudly: "I am a patrol officer. Detective Si Cao Dahua came out of the city to handle the case and immediately opened the city gate. The only thing that delayed the case was that you asked!"
Some officers and soldiers guarding the city came over to check Cao Dahua's badge and respectfully held torches. He said: "Captain Cao, I was offended just now. Please bear with me."
After saying that, DaHe shouted to his companions: "Open the city gate!"
......
The dark clouds gradually thinned and the stars suddenly brightened.
Lin Yi and Cao Dahua walked towards the path leading to the farmer's house.
Cao Dahua led the way, and Lin Yi followed. In order to make time, both of them walked very fast.
When they came to a fork in the road, they saw a burly man sitting on a large bluestone to rest, holding a little monkey beside him.
The two came closer, and Lin Yi discovered that this big man was the martial artist who had previously performed monkey tricks in Digong.
Seeing Cao Dahua and Lin Yi approaching, the big man watched the two people alertly. When he saw Cao Dahua's police officer uniform, he immediately stood up, picked up the props for the performance, and pulled them with him. The "squeaky" little monkey is gone.
It seems that this big man doesn’t like getting along with strangers.
The two of them didn't take it to heart, they were in a hurry.
Cao Dahua pointed to the other path taken by the big man and said: "Let's go this way."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly passed through the sight of the two people.
The two couldn't help but stop.
"Brother Lin, did you see that a black shadow just passed by?"
"Yes, it seemed to be a child."
The two of them looked towards the place where the black shadow had been.
Suddenly, another black shadow swooped past.
"Oh my God!" Cao Dahua shouted, "Have you encountered a ghost?"
In this troubled world, it is not uncommon to encounter ghosts in the wilderness, but Lin Yi was keenly aware of something unusual.
He has clairvoyance and can see more clearly.
The first black shadow was clearly a seven or eight-year-old boy.
The second black shadow is a little girl of four or five years old.
The ages of these two children are consistent with the missing brother and sister in one of the families that recently reported to the police.
Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat.
I am afraid these two children are no longer here.
It stands to reason that ghosts generally do not appear.
Is this a reminder?
Thinking of this, Lin Yi walked forward without saying a word and pushed aside the grass where two black shadows drifted past.
Looked around and found it.
In the grass, there is a little girl’s little red shoe.
