After listening to his son's narration, Father Hou sat on a chair, smoked a cigarette and cursed: "You bitch, you can't even support yourself, and you want to bring back a child."
"She is so pitiful. When I saw her, the soles of her shoes were leaking." Hou Guoyu wiped the rain from his head and said: "I originally wanted to put her in the relief department, but she had a serious fever. I
It seemed that the staff member was not a responsible person, so I brought her home."
Father Hou put out the cigarette butt and didn't say much. He just stood up and put his hands behind his back, walked to the little girl and touched her head: "This medicine is of no use at all. Call the doctor who comes to the house and give her an injection, otherwise
Children are easily burned out."
"I have no money, dad." Hou Guoyu bared his teeth and replied.
Father Hou glanced at this worried person and cursed impatiently: "Go away, go to the house and sleep!"
"Then you take care of her. When the rain stops, I will take her to the police station." Hou Guoyu was really sleepy, so he just said that and went back to the house to sleep.
Father Hou had a bad temper and was not nice to talk to, but he was very careful in his work. He walked to the sofa, picked up his mobile phone and played with it for a long time, then dialed a number: "Hey, is this Home Quiet Point? Yes,
I am Lao Hou, please come to my house and bring some antipyretic medicine. It is for children. She caught a cold in the rain..."
After making the phone call, Father Hou silently walked to the kitchen and cooked a bowl of ginger soup for the little girl.
…
Three hours later, in the office hall of the Marine Police Special Task Force.
Su Tianyu sat on a chair, drinking coffee to refresh himself: "How are you, captain?"
Fang Zheng walked over and replied softly: "Your feeling is really right. There is indeed a problem with Tianlan Company, and all the company managers have run away. I have reviewed all the ones caught so far, and it is basically certain that they are all shrimps."
"Don't these people know where the higher-ups have gone?" Su Tianyu asked.
"I don't know." Fang Zheng picked up the cigarette case and lit one. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Xiao Su, look, this case is very strange. The shootout happened last night, but there are still some legal persons of Tianlan Company.
The little leader did not run away, but instead waited for us at the scene and gave a confession very cooperatively. But as the morning passed, these people were nowhere to be found. Why do you think this is?"
"Because there may be things that were not dealt with last night and they need time?" Su Tianyu replied with raised eyebrows.
"Yes, that should be the reason." Fang Zheng immediately stood up and ordered; "Xiao Su, take someone to check the legal person and investor information of Tianlan Company, now!"
"Okay!" After receiving the order, Su Tianyu immediately led the people away.
This afternoon, Su Tianyu was chasing the Tianlan Company line, but the information obtained by Superintendent Hai was relatively scattered, and the logic of the case was very strange, so the task force was scrambling for time almost the entire time during the investigation.

…
In the evening, around 6:40, the heavy rain had stopped, but it was still cloudy outside and there was a cool breeze blowing.
Father Hou was sitting in his living room, watching the news.
At this moment, the little girl lying indoors struggled to open the door and walked out in dirty clothes and bare feet.
Her eyes were clear, but her expression was obviously timid.
"You're awake!" Father Hou stood up with a smile and walked over.
The little girl instinctively took two steps back and looked at Father Hou with her big eyes blinking.
Father Hou walked over slowly, with one hand behind his back and a rare smile on his face: "Look, you're dirty."
After saying that, Father Hou pinched the little girl's face with his hand.
The little girl seemed to feel that the other party had no ill intentions. This time she did not dodge, but just stood there quietly.
Father Hou touched the little girl's forehead with his hand and felt that her fever had obviously gone down a lot: "Haha, children recover quickly. After a nap, the fever went away."
The little girl lowered her head and looked at her dirty little feet, her stomach growling.
"Hahaha, are you hungry?" The old man smiled happily, stretched out his hand and took her to the bathroom door: "Go in and wash yourself, and I will take you downstairs to have something to eat."
The little girl didn't seem to understand and made a few more gestures with her hands.
The old man opened the bathroom door, pointed at the sink and said, "Go and wash yourself."
The little girl understood this time and walked into the bathroom timidly.
…
Fifteen minutes later.
The little girl was wearing the baggy clothes that Hou Guoyu had worn when he was a teenager, and walked downstairs with the old man on ill-fitting slippers.
Hou's father's wife passed away many years ago, so the family has always been lived by father and son. In addition, Hou Guoyu was not very obedient a few years ago. When he was a soldier, he joined the navy without telling him, and he left for more than three years.
During this period of time, Hou's father was alone at home, eating alone and thinking about his son. It can be said that he lived a very lonely life in his later years.
On the street, Father Hou led the little girl to the snack shop. On the way, he saw a children's products store. He stopped for a moment and then said succinctly: "Let's go, I'll take you to shop!"
In the bright children's supplies store, Father Hou was secretly speechless as he looked at the not-so-cheap children's clothing. After hesitating for a while, he bought the little girl a discounted dress and a pair of white sandals based on his own conditions.
The little girl was very resistant at first and refused to wear it, but as soon as Father Hou squatted down and looked at her with a smile, she became quiet again.
After shopping for about half an hour, the old man led the child out of the store and rushed to the snack street.
The sun sets in the west, and the sky is filled with colorful clouds.
The little girl was wearing new clothes, holding a colorful pinwheel that was given free of charge by the children's store in her right hand, and showed a rare happy expression.
In a nearby community pharmacy, Hou Guoyu, who had gotten up at six o'clock, was sitting on a chair playing with his mobile phone and yelled: "The medicine hasn't been returned yet?!"
"Here it comes, here it comes!" The clerk walked in.
On the street after the rain, there was an endless stream of pedestrians. Two Eastern Europeans were patrolling this dilapidated neighborhood with a set of surveillance photos.
After walking back and forth for a while, the two Eastern Europeans gradually approached the Hou family.
"This way!" At the intersection, Mr. Hou dragged the little girl to prepare to cross the road.
The Eastern Europeans were walking from the opposite direction, and when they lowered their heads, they saw the windmill and the little girl.
Two groups of people passed by each other. The strong Eastern European man on the left showed a smile, held the headset and said: "I found the goods."
"Who's here?"
"Just an old man, I didn't see the young man."
"Take the goods and leave."
"Okay, boss!"
After receiving the order, the two Eastern Europeans turned around suddenly.
"Whoosh!"
Just then, the street light on the sidewalk turned red, and the cars on both sides of the street started moving.
When Father Hou was leading his child forward, he suddenly felt a tap on his right shoulder.?
