Ma Xiaoyao was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Looking for the woman I love most... More than half a month ago, the plane she was riding in had an accident and fell into the sea here. She disappeared after that. The province and city jointly
A search team was formed and searched the sea area for more than half a month, but she could not be found..."
"Ah!" Jin Ming opened his mouth: "This... has been missing for more than half a month. Isn't that person in danger..." Before Jin Ming could finish his words, he felt a fierce murderous intention enveloped him.
It made him shiver involuntarily.
Ma Xiaoyao stared at Jin Ming with red eyes, and his voice was cold and bone-chilling: "Don't say the words "bad luck" or "bad luck" in front of me in the future, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you!"
"Brother, I'm sorry, I talked nonsense... you were angry..." Jin Ming apologized hastily.
The murderous aura on Ma Xiaoyao's body gradually dissipated, and he suddenly became decadent: "Why do you all say that Sister Gu is in danger... Why... I don't believe that she must still be alive... She must still be alive...
"As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao suddenly shed tears. A grown man started crying like this. He cried very sadly. Ever since he learned about Gu Li's accident, Ma Xiaoyao was completely confused. These days, his
I've been under a lot of pressure, and today I finally couldn't help crying.
Who says a man won’t shed tears easily, but it’s just that he hasn’t reached the sad point yet.
Ma Xiaoyao is a very strong man. He has rarely cried since he was a child. No matter how wronged or difficult things are, Ma Xiaoyao has never shed a tear, but today Ma Xiaoyao cried...
The night passed quickly.
The next day, at dawn, Ma Xiaoyao ran to the deck and continued searching for Guli.
Jin Ming slowly drove the yacht on the sea.
Still nothing achieved this day...
Seven days passed in a flash. During these seven days, Ma Xiaoyao barely slept a wink and ate very little. He looked very haggard and his face was unshaven. At first glance, he looked like an old man in his forties.
Seven days have passed, and Ma Xiaoyao still has not found Gu Li. It has been more than 20 days since Gu Li disappeared... Ma Xiaoyao's heart began to become more and more irritable...
In the past seven days, Ma Xiaoyao encountered several small islands. Every time he found an island, Ma Xiaoyao would go up and search it carefully. Unfortunately, he could not find Gu Li's whereabouts at all.
This afternoon.
Jin Ming suddenly shouted: "Brother, come down quickly, we have encountered a group of sharks!"
Ma Xiaoyao, who was standing on the deck, was suddenly startled. He raised his head and looked into the distance. Sure enough, he saw a group of sharks swimming towards them. There were quite a few of them. There were probably dozens of them. When he saw the group of sharks, Ma Xiaoyao
My heart suddenly sank. There are really sharks in this sea area... and there are so many of them... If Sister Gu encounters these sharks, wouldn't it be... No, no, Sister Gu has her own luck.
Tianxiang, she will be fine...she will be fine!
At this time, Jin Ming ran out of the cabin and shouted to Ma Xiaoyao: "Brother, why are you so stunned? Come down quickly! The sharks are coming!" As he spoke, Jin Ming rushed to the deck and pulled him.
Ma Xiaoyao got into the cabin.
As soon as Jin Ming and Ma Xiaoyao got into the cabin, a group of sharks arrived.
"Lie down and don't make any noise." Jin Ming whispered in Ma Xiaoyao's ear.
Ma Xiaoyao lay in the cabin, nervously listening to what was going on outside.
Jin Ming's expression was relatively normal. He went to sea all year round and had encountered sharks before, so he was not very nervous.
The sharks circled the yacht twice, and then swam away after finding nothing special.
"Huh..." Jin Ming let out a long breath: "The sharks finally left, we are safe..." As he spoke, Jin Ming got up, started the engine, and drove the yacht out of the sea.
After Ma Xiaoyao calmed down, he returned to the deck to look for Gu Li's whereabouts.
About an hour later, Jin Ming's cry came from the cabin: "Brother, there is another small island ahead. Do we still go up to check it?"
"Go." Ma Xiaoyao said without hesitation.
After receiving Ma Xiaoyao's instructions, Jin Ming drove the yacht towards the island in front. More than half an hour later, the yacht docked at the edge of the island.
Ma Xiaoyao jumped up and jumped directly from the deck to the island. He raised his head and glanced around. Ma Xiaoyao found that the island was quite desolate, with gravel everywhere and not even a tree to be seen.
Jin Ming turned off the engine and got off the yacht, then pulled a thick rope from the rear of the yacht and tied it quickly to a boulder. In this way, there was no need to worry about the yacht being washed away by the waves. After doing all this,
Jin Ming followed Ma Xiaoyao and began to search the island.
The two of them spent a whole day searching the island, but found... nothing.
Before dark, Ma Xiaoyao and Jin Ming returned to the yacht exhausted. Tonight, the two of them spent the night on the edge of the island.
"Jin Ming, you have worked hard these days. I will definitely reward you heavily when I go back." Ma Xiaoyao said gratefully. Jin Ming has worked hard these days to help Ma Xiaoyao find Guli, but he has endured a lot of hardships.
Xiaoyao is grateful from the bottom of his heart.
"Brother, why are you so polite to me? Although I haven't been in contact with you for a long time, I feel that I have a special affinity with you. You can persevere in finding the woman you love. I admire this friendship very much."
Jin Ming said.
"I am lucky to meet you when I go to sea this time." Ma Xiaoyao breathed out softly.
Jin Ming hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Ma Xiaoyao nodded.
"Well...Brother, we have searched hundreds of miles of sea these days and haven't seen a single person..." Jin Ming said while carefully observing Ma Xiaoyao's face.
"You want to persuade me to give up and go back the way I came, right?" Ma Xiaoyao said calmly.
"Ah...that's not what I meant, I just wanted to say...it's not an option for us to continue searching aimlessly like this..." Jin Ming said hurriedly.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I also know that it is difficult to find results if we continue searching like this, but I have no other way... I can only continue searching like this..."
Jin Ming was silent for a moment, and then said: "I think we should invite more people to help search. As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers..."
Ma Xiaoyao smiled bitterly: "Do you think I don't want to ask more people to help? The key is who is willing to help? A few days ago, many people were searching for missing persons at sea, but after more than half a month, they found nothing. Those searches
The personnel concluded that all the missing people were dead, so they all evacuated... Everyone thought that Sister Gu was dead, but I didn't give up, and I still said the same thing: you want to see the person in life, and you want to see the body in death!"
Jin Ming opened his mouth to say something, but after seeing Ma Xiaoyao's sad expression, he swallowed his words back.
…
It will dawn soon.
Without Ma Xiaoyao's instructions, Jin Ming started the engine and drove away on the yacht.
Ma Xiaoyao was still standing on the deck, carefully searching the surrounding sea area.
Time passed day by day, Ma Xiaoyao and Jin Ming had searched three hundred miles of sea, and encountered no less than ten small islands alone, but in the end they still did not find Guli.
As time goes by, Ma Xiaoyao gradually becomes desperate... Is Sister Gu really no longer alive?
…
Dongcheng County.
Wang Aiqin picked up her cell phone and called Ma Xiaoyao.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is not in the service area. Please call again later." A sweet voice came from the mobile phone.
Wang Aiqin frowned: "Not in the service area? Isn't Xiaoyao in the city? There should be a signal in the city? How come it can't get through?" Wang Aiqin pondered for a moment and called Ma Xiaoyao again.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is not in the service area. Please call again later." The phone still prompts that it is not in the service area.
"What the hell is this Ma Xiaoyao doing?" Wang Aiqin was a little worried. Ever since Ma Xiaoyao borrowed money from her, Wang Aiqin had been worried about Ma Xiaoyao. She knew Ma Xiaoyao very well and knew that if Ma Xiaoyao was not really in an emergency,
, would not ask her to borrow money. On the other hand, since Ma Xiaoyao asked her to borrow money, it means that Ma Xiaoyao encountered something urgent, or encountered some trouble.
No, I have to go to the city to find Ma Xiaoyao! Wang Aiqin finally couldn't bear to leave Ma Xiaoyao and took a car to the city.
…
Gaohe Township.
Ding Dahu went directly to Liu Mao and asked about Ma Xiaoyao's whereabouts.
Liu Mao said calmly: "Secretary Ma has gone to do some work."
"What to do?" Ding Dahu asked.
Liu Mao glanced at Ding Dahu: "I'm sorry, I have no comment."
"You..." Ding Dahu was furious when he heard this: "Liu Mao, don't forget, I am the mayor of the township!"
Liu Mao nodded: "I haven't forgotten, I know you are the township head, but you can't control the township party committee, let alone me, the deputy secretary of the party committee."
"You..." Ding Dahu's face changed color in anger.
"Chief Ding, if you have nothing to do, please come back. I'm very busy and I don't have time to chat with you." Liu Mao said calmly.
Ding Dahu took a deep breath: "Deputy Secretary Liu, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else. I was just worried when I saw Secretary Ma not coming back for half a month, so I came here to ask..."
"I will definitely convey Mayor Ding's concerns to Secretary Ma word for word." Liu Mao nodded: "Director Ding, can you leave now?"
Ding Dahu frowned: "Deputy Secretary Liu, why did you deliberately conceal Secretary Ma's whereabouts? Is there any ulterior secret in this?"
"Tsk!" Liu Mao sneered: "Mr. Ding, your imagination is too rich, isn't it? Let me tell you clearly that there is no secret at all here. I don't want to tell you Secretary Ma's whereabouts because I
I don’t think it’s necessary, do you hear me clearly? There’s no need to tell you, please go back now, I have to work.” After saying that, Liu Mao picked up a document and read it, and stopped talking to Ding Dahu.
