Two men gathered around Li Manjun, one on the left and the other on the right, watching her copy the vague pencil writing on the cigarette box onto the blank paper.
All the contents are revealed——
[My name is Huang Xiuwen. I live on the fifth floor of Unit 2, Building 3, Tumuqiao Community, Tonghe County, Zhaoyang City, Yuzhou. My father’s name is Huang Yongjie. My home phone number is. If a kindhearted person sees this note, please help me contact my father.
Thank you very much]
The handwriting on the cigarette box is beautiful, and at first glance it seems that it could not have been written by a crazy rural woman. In this era, few rural women had even finished elementary school.
Perhaps because there was not enough time, the woman's current address was not left on the carton.
The woman's frightened but sober black eyes once again appeared in front of Li Manjun's eyes, instantly confirming his suspicion.
Ninety-nine percent of this woman was abducted!
And she kept saying that she would go to the police station in the morning, because she actually wanted to tell the police about this woman.
Perhaps, the woman's family is looking for her.
"Sister, the woman who blocked the car couldn't be Huang Xiuwen, right?" Li Jianjun asked in surprise.
Li Manjun nodded, "Nine times out of ten, it is."
As he said that, he carefully put the cigarette paper shell inside the notebook and put it into his bag together with the piece of paper he copied on, planning to take it to the police station tomorrow morning.
"Sleeping." Li Manjun motioned to Li Jianjun to go back to the study.
Li Jianjun frowned, looking very worried about the woman's safety, and went out without saying a word.
Zhao Yong closed the door, turned around and asked Li Manjun: "What are you going to do with this piece of paper? A piece of paper can't prove anything. The police may not investigate, and there is no address at all. Maybe even the land boundary does not belong to Rongcheng.
Jurisdiction, people may not handle cross-district matters.”
Li Manjun had seen many reports about kidnapping in the news in his previous life. In a village like that, almost the whole village was accomplices, and there was no way to escape.
Even if some girls find a chance to run away and call the police at the town police station, it's no use. They are still taken back by the people who bought them.
At that time, I was already feeling desperate while watching TV. Now when Zhao Yong said this, the cold water of reality poured on my face. Li Manjun was like a deflated rubber ball, lying on the bed.
Seeing that she remained silent, Zhao Yong teased in a relaxed tone, "Maybe it's a prank."
Go to bed, turn off the lights, hug your wife, "Go to sleep, it's been a tough day, don't think about it now, have a good sleep, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."
"......Um."
...
Rongcheng Public Security Bureau lobby.
Li Manjun, his wife and Li Jianjun waited anxiously until the police officer who received them came back from the information desk.
The three of them stood up immediately, and Li Manjun asked: "Did the phone call go through? Has it been verified? Is it true?"
The police officer shook his head helplessly and handed the paper Li Manjun copied back to her, "Sorry, this phone number can't be reached. It may be an empty number."
"And the place where the incident occurred falls within the jurisdiction of Eastern Province. We can't handle it here. If you still want to investigate, it's best to contact the police of Eastern Province."
Maybe it was because the look on Li Manjun's face was too solemn, so the police officer kindly reminded:
"We have seen many such reports. If it is not a prank, it is best to find the other person's family directly, and have her family come forward to find the local police for assistance. The procedure is faster and the possibility of rescuing the person is higher."
After saying that, the police officer sighed and continued to tell Li Manjun that they were stopped by villagers and forced to ask for tolls. They could only give a warning and could not do anything to those villagers.
As for the 1,200 yuan that Li Manjun threw away, there is a high probability that she will not get it back. Let her calm down and stop thinking about it. She will come back safely and the loss will not be big.
The two siblings walked out of the Public Security Bureau with their shoulders slumped, feeling like they wanted to get angry but had no place to do so.
In the end, he was just helpless and furious, and kicked the flower bed on the roadside to vent his anger.
Zhao Yong said that the flower bed is very innocent.
Now this result was completely within his expectation.
Zhao Yong motioned the two of them to get in the car and drove the dejected sister and brother to the gate of the post office.
Li Jianjun thought his brother-in-law was driving home. When he saw the post office door, he asked confusedly: "What are we doing at the post office?"
post office?
Li Manjun suddenly raised her head and saw the green post office door. An idea flashed in her mind. She had a solution!
"Honey, you're so good!" Li Manjun leaned forward and kissed Zhao Yong quickly. Amidst Li Jianjun's boos, he opened the car door and walked quickly towards the post office.
The phone couldn't be reached, but the address and name were there. There was no place in the world that the post office couldn't reach.
She wanted to write a letter to Huang Xiuwen's father, telling him what happened to his daughter in Dong Province, and to rescue his daughter Huang Xiuwen.
Thinking of this, Li Manjun immediately bought an envelope and stationery at the counter, wrote the contents on the spot, wrote down the place where he and Huang Xiuwen met, put a cigarette paper shell in the envelope as a gift, and mailed it out together.
It only cost 70 cents, but this 70 cents can give infinite hope to a family that has lost its daughter.
After meeting by chance, Li Manjun had done what she could. The moment the letter was sent, her anxious heart finally settled.
She left her contact number in the letter, hoping to hear from Shengli soon.
"Are you relieved now?" Zhao Yong asked with a smile.
Li Manjun smiled at him, "Yeah."
Li Jianjun exaggeratedly rubbed the goosebumps on his arms, "Ahem!" He coughed twice to remind the couple that there was a big living person like him sitting in the back seat, so be careful.
However, knowing that his sister had sent a letter to Huang Xiuwen's father, he felt relieved and his mood lifted. He shared his experiences in Dongshi with his brother-in-law. It was the first time for a young man to go out to see the world. Everything he saw was new, especially Internet cafes and games.
Zhao Yong reminded Li Manjun to fasten his seat belt and sent the two siblings to Gao Yuejin's auto repair shop to see if the problem with the car was serious.
Hearing Li Jianjun behind him say that he wanted to open an Internet cafe, he raised his thick eyebrows and asked, "Jianjun wants to open an Internet cafe?"
It seems that this trip has been fruitful.
Li Manjun continued and said with a smile: "Nowadays, young people are playing more and more things. I think opening an Internet cafe in Rongcheng will definitely attract many young people who love to play."
"And there are no formal Internet cafes in Rongcheng yet. They are all small businesses. There is such a huge market gap. If we don't take the lead now, we will have no chance in the future."
Zhao Yong saw that it was not his brother-in-law who wanted to open an Internet cafe, but his wife who wanted to start a business.
I would like to ask: "How much does it cost to open an Internet cafe like that?"
Li Manjun made a rough calculation in his mind before answering: "The total cost of renting a venue, buying equipment, and decorating may cost four to five million."
She has cheap channels for equipment, which can save a lot of money, but the space cannot be saved, and the location must be good.
As for decoration, just a simple decoration will be enough. Making some high-end private rooms can cost 60,000 to 70,000 yuan.
Zhao Yong didn't even think about it and said to Li Jianjun: "The money is all at your sister's place. You two can take care of it yourself."
Li Jianjun looked at the man in the driver's seat with emotion - this is the most handsome man in the world!
