Xu Chunjun went to Meng's house and Cui's house on the second day, but found nothing.
I came to Jiang Nuan later, knowing that if I didn't tell her, she would definitely be worried.
Jiang Nuan's eyes were severely swollen and her complexion was not good.
Xu Chunjun asked her: "Did you not sleep well at night? We should take good care of ourselves. If you and I collapse, we will not be able to find Yunchu."
Most people are either anxious or sad after something happens. But Xu Chunjun doesn't. The more this happens, the calmer and more restrained she becomes.
"Did the Meng family and Cui family do it?" Jiang Nuan asked.
Xu Chunjun slowly shook his head: "I don't think it's very similar."
Jiang Nuan suddenly became even more discouraged. If it was done by these two families, at least they would have a handle.
"Who could that be?" Jiang Nuan mentioned another person, "Could it be Meng Qiao?"
"It's hard to tell. We don't know whether Meng Qiao is alive or dead now, or where he is." Xu Chunjun said, "But this matter must have been planned long ago. Someone who can play such a big game of chess must have
It's extremely sophisticated, otherwise it would never have been so clean and tidy, and we wouldn't be able to find any clues.
If it was Meng Qiao, then she must have made friends with incredible forces. Otherwise, she alone would not be able to do it.
Or maybe there is someone else, hiding in the dark, unknown to you and me."
Jiang Nuan's eye circles turned red again, and he said, "I was already very stupid and couldn't figure it out at all. Now that I hear what you say, I feel even more hopeless."
"A Nuan, listen to me. The more difficult the situation is, the more you must hold on." Xu Chunjun stopped Jiang Nuan from crying, "But if there is a chance, we must continue to look for it."
"What I'm worried about now is that the paper can't contain the fire," Jiang Nuan said sadly, "Uncle Cen will know sooner or later, and he will have to be anxious."
Xu Chunjun also knew that this matter could not be concealed: "You don't need anything else. If you don't see Yun Chu when you return home three times, Uncle Cen will know about it."
"My father-in-law went out to search after the rain stopped in the middle of the night, and he hasn't come back yet." Jiang Nuan glanced out the window and said.
The violent wind and rain last night knocked down the flowers and leaves all over the ground. Most of the beautiful spring scenery was reduced, which was very depressing.
"I'll go to my aunt's house again to see if there's any new progress." Xu Chunjun didn't want to wait.
Instead of sitting here sighing and thinking wildly, it is better to run as hard as you can, maybe you can turn things around.
"Sister Xu, let me go with you too." Jiang Nuan made a show of getting dressed.
"Ah Nuan, I think you don't look well, so you should rest at home! If there is any news, I will send someone to tell you." Xu Chunjun said happily.
After hearing this, Mother Sang hurriedly said: "Grandma Zheng, this is what you said, we didn't dare to persuade you. Our girl cried for most of the night yesterday, and then she simply sat up instead of lying down. She didn't sleep all night.
My eyes are closed, how can I continue like this?"
"My father-in-law is back." Zhuangzi came in from outside and said.
"Is there any news about Yunchu?" Jiang Nuan asked hurriedly.
Huo Tian also came in from the outside. When he saw Xu Chunjun was there, he said: "We haven't found any useful clues yet, but we have sent a lot of people to various places in the city, such as gambling houses, hookups, and theaters, where three religions and nine people are hanging out.
I went to inquire about the place.”
"This is a good idea. Since the other party is in the dark, a blatant search will probably yield no results," Xu Chunjun said. "A secret search might yield unexpected results."
Now that Huo Tian is back, Xu Chunjun stood up and said: "I have been here for a long time and I have to leave beforehand. Ah Nuan, you have to have a good rest. I will come see you tomorrow."
Jiang Nuan insisted on sending Xu Chunjun out and said: "If there are not enough people, please tell me. Or if you want to inquire about someone's house, call me if it is inconvenient."
"I got it, go back and have a rest." Xu Chunjun smiled at her, then turned around and got in the car.
When she arrived at Xu Lang's house, Chen Qin was not there, and they are still searching everywhere.
"My sister-in-law has a headache. I just came back from a visit." Xu Lang sighed helplessly and said, "Siwen woke up and went to the street to look for her like crazy. She was tied to the bed. She asked the doctor for a prescription.
I have to force down the soothing decoction, otherwise I'm afraid he will lose his mind and go crazy."
"What's the result of the interrogation at the Yamen? No suspicious people found?" Xu Chunjun asked with concern.
"I heard Sijing say something. The group of people carrying the bathing Buddha were found. They said that as early as seven days ago, someone paid them to go to the sweet water well at the east end of Mingyue Street to sprinkle Buddha water. The time was also set, and they said no
Sooner or later." Xu Lang said, "When I asked who hired them, they said they didn't know who the customer was. It was just that the people from the dental shop brought the money and talked about it from the middle. They gave half of the deposit first and talked about it.
I’ll give you the rest of the money after it’s done.”
It is an old custom in Beijing to bathe the Buddha and circle the well, because the well is very important to the surrounding residents.
Many people believe that well water is the source of plague diseases, so every year before and after the Buddha Bathing Festival, people are invited to clean the well water.
"What about the guy from the dental clinic?" Xu Chunjun knew as soon as he heard that that person did it on purpose, just to let them make the street more crowded.
"I contacted someone from Sox's Dental Shop, and they said that the guy in charge of this matter hadn't been to the dental shop for the past two days, so Sijing and the others went to look for him. We don't know what's going to happen next."
"If what these people carrying the Bathing Buddha said is true, they were just being used by others and did not know the inside story. Then the suspicion of the sideshow group is even more serious." Xu Chunjun frowned slightly and analyzed, "But until now, there is no trace of the truth.
The whereabouts of those people could not be found."
"That's right, these people seem to have disappeared out of thin air. I heard that Mr. Huo and the others went to the mountains to look for them last night, but they couldn't find them." Xu Lang sighed deeply. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen in broad daylight?
.
"Could they be using a cover-up trick to stay in Beijing?" Xu Chunjun hypothesized, "Thieves all know the truth of darkness under the lamp."
"It's not that I didn't expect this, but I have already searched everywhere I can." Xu Lang said, "If it doesn't work, we can only post portraits everywhere and offer rewards."
In fact, just yesterday, after Cen Yunchu failed to report to the officials, the officials had sealed off various city gates for interrogation, but nothing was found.
"Although the juggling troupe has disappeared, doesn't anyone know them?" Xu Chunjun asked.
"It hasn't been found yet. As you know, in such a big capital, there are hundreds or even thousands of juggling troupes." Xu Lang shook his head and said, "It would be really not good if they came to Beijing for a short time.
check."
Xu Chunjun stayed at Xu Lang's house for half a day until Chen Qin came back.
Just to hear if there is any new news.
Chen Qin was very tired and shook his head with difficulty without saying a word.
