Chapter 279 Chapter 279: Unfair
Everyone in the Xu family was looking around, when suddenly they saw Xu Yinyin jumping down, and they immediately became anxious.
"Hey, Si Ya! What is Si Ya doing?"
"Si Ya! Come back quickly!"
"Si Ya..."
Xu Dajun, who was pulled a little too late by Xu Yinyin, quickly ran to a closer place. While running, he kept an eye on the movement in the river, and was prepared to jump in immediately if something went wrong.
The person who fell into the water was a young girl. It was really difficult to save him. What if someone rescued her and asked him to take responsibility for marrying her?
If the girl saves the girl, then everything will be fine.
But Xu Dajun thought for a moment and quickly asked Mo Tai to buy two pieces of cloth from the night market behind him, thinking that he would wait for Xu Yinyin to fish them out later, so that he could wrap the two of them with cloth immediately to avoid being said.
On this hot day, everyone was wearing less clothes, and he couldn't help but think, fortunately, Xu Yinyin's shirt outside today was a lotus color, at least it wasn't too see-through.
How many thoughts it takes, in fact, it only takes a while.
Xu Yinyin entered the water and swam quickly in that direction. She was about to arrive when suddenly, something under the water wrapped around her ankles.
Huh!
Xu Yinyin felt a chill on her back, today is the Ghost Festival, there won't be a dear friend underwater, right?
But they all jumped in. Thinking too much would only cause panic. Xu Yinyin quickly drove the thoughts out of her mind, kicked off the feeling on her right ankle with her left foot, and then swam forward with all her strength.
Soon, he swam behind the girl who fell into the water. At this moment, she had no strength to struggle, and her whole body was sinking. Xu Yinyin, with quick eyes and quick hands, picked her up, passed her under her armpits, and hugged her
The woman's chest was turned upside down, and then she hurriedly swam to the shore.
While swimming, something seemed to touch her ankle again. Xu Yinyin didn't dare to think too much, so she kicked off again and swam towards the shore with all her strength.
Xu Dajun squatted on the shore and stretched out his hand from a distance, "Quick!"
Zhang Xiulan and Ma Zhou also followed. As soon as Xu Dajun grabbed Xu Yinyin's hand, the three of them quickly took the cloth bought by Motai, covered Xu Yinyin and the girl tightly, and dragged the two ashore.
Xu Yinyin covered her body with a cloth and checked the girl's condition first. Her chest was rising and falling, and she was still breathing. She immediately performed chest compressions to drain out the accumulated fluid.
The girl was saved in time, and she didn't choke on much water. With a few compressions by Xu Yinyin, a lot of water came out, and she slowly opened her eyes as she choked and coughed.
"Wake up, wake up!" the people watching shouted, and everyone became happy.
The woman who shouted for help earlier was this girl's mother. Seeing that her daughter was okay, she breathed a sigh of relief and came over to kneel down to Xu Yinyin, "My benefactor! Thank you for saving my daughter!"
Xu Yinyin tightened the cloth, waved her hands and said: "It only takes a little effort, and everything will be fine."
It's pretty good to be able to get gratitude for saving someone's life, not being in a situation where you're being relied on instead, and you're doing your best, so you're fine.
But after the girl who woke up was stunned for a moment, her whole body swayed, and she hugged the woman and kept muttering and repeating: "Water ghost... There is a water ghost... The water ghost wants to catch me...
"
The woman and the onlookers were all frightened, thinking that today was the Ghost Festival, so this girl might have been infected with something sinister.
The woman thanked Xu Yinyin again, asked about her residence, and said that she would come to thank her some other day. Xu Yinyin waved her hands and said no, and she didn't say much. She was also anxious to take her daughter back to see the doctor, and also invited a fairy girl to come.
Just take a look.
Because of this, those who had put out river lanterns quickly moved away from the river, and those who had not put out river lanterns also stayed away from this area and went to the upstream point to put them out.
Because Xu Yinyin was all wet, their family took a step ahead and hired a car on the roadside to go home first.
After going home and taking a hot bath and changing into clean clothes, Xu Yinyin looked at the flickering candlelight and thought about what happened when something touched her ankles in the river just now, and how the girl said there was a water ghost.
If so, I couldn't help but get excited.
Oh my god, it's still late at night, and I can really have wild imaginations when I'm alone right now.
Xu Yinyin was a little scared and hurriedly called Xixin in who had just poured the water, "Xixin, you can stay in this room tonight and sleep on the soft couch."
Xixin nodded hurriedly in agreement, seeming to feel a little relieved.
Xu Yinyin couldn't help but look at her twice, thinking about how she was getting along with Linglong recently, but she didn't ask any more questions.
It's already late at night, so it's better to sleep.
Things about water ghosts kept flashing in her mind from time to time, and she couldn't sleep, so she recited English silently in her mind. Not long after, she heard the subtle snoring in the Bisha cupboard again, her eyelids became heavy, and soon she
Fell asleep.
The lights in the east part of the city were gradually extinguished, but the government office area in the north part of the city was brightly lit and crowded with people.
Prefect Kong, who was on holiday today, was alarmed and had to come to the government office to take charge.
Otherwise, today is the Ghost Festival, there are river lanterns, and there are a lot of people visiting the night market. In previous years, everything was normal, but this year it was strange. In one night, the government office received more than a dozen reports, all of which were reported by family members.
Lost in the night market.
Magistrate Kong has been re-elected for two terms in Yiyang Prefecture. The public security in Yiyang Prefecture has always been peaceful. During the lively lantern festivals such as the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, few people were lost, let alone the Mid-Autumn Festival.
One or two can be let go, and there are more than a dozen in a row. Their families have gathered in the government office and refuse to leave. They want the government to help find someone, and there are many wealthy businessmen and dignitaries in the city. Prefect Kong has to come as well.
.
Let the master's clerk ask each of these people who was lost in the family, where and how the person was lost, who was with him at the time, and what was found about it.
After some questioning, it was found that all the missing people were young girls, and the circumstances of the missing people were also similar. They were all in the night market, where people were coming and going, and in the blink of an eye, the people disappeared.
Except for two of them who went out alone, the others were accompanied by maids or other people.
Under such circumstances, you can still find someone in the blink of an eye, but you can meet someone. This is a premeditated abduction incident, and the abductor must have many accomplices to cooperate.
Based on these alone, I have no clue if I want to find someone.
Fortunately, one of the girls named Zhou and the maid who was following her at the time provided a useful clue.
Before her girl disappeared, a woman came to talk to her girl. Thinking about it afterwards, this woman was very suspicious.
Since there were no other clues, this clue had to be used. At that moment, the maid was asked to go out alone and paint a portrait of this woman with the yamen painter, so that the whole city would want to find her.
The maid said that the painter was painting, but after a while, nothing was right.
When the artist painted it, the maid shook her head and said it didn't look like it, but the artist claimed that it was based on what the maid described.
When the matter was reported to Magistrate Ye, he was trying to persuade the people who had lost the girl to leave one by one. Even if they were looking for someone in the middle of the night, it would be tomorrow. With so many people guarding the government office, it would not be possible.
decent.
Hearing that the painting was not going well, Magistrate Ye couldn't help but rub his temples. He was very tired in the middle of the night.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he thought of the previous portrait of Hu Xuan and the fat doll from Xu Ji Pig's Knuckle Restaurant.
