On the other end of the phone, Tang Jingyue said, "Xiao Min, you called me to ask if Xiao Ye was at home, right?"
Tang Jingyue was in the suburbs and the signal was not good. She was in a meeting with workers about medicinal material processing, so she didn't hear everything clearly.
Tang Min said, "Yes, my Jingqi hasn't been home since school. Jingchuan and I are at school now. It is said that all their day students are out of school, and the second aunt is not at school either. We
I’m quite worried about Jing Qi.”
"My mother has not been in school these two days. She was awarded the title of Outstanding Teacher and went to the provincial capital to be commended."
Hearing Tang Jingyue's words, Tang Min nodded, "That's right, then you call home and ask if Xiaoye has returned home? We'll wait for news here."
"Okay, hang up first."
A few minutes later, Tang Jingyue called again.
She said, "Xiao Ye is not at home. There are only two people at home, grandma and Aunt Wang. They said that Xiao Ye has not come back since school."
Tang Ye didn't go home either?
Tang Min suddenly didn't feel so worried anymore.
"Then they are probably together, and they are not in school right now. Where can they go? Jingyue, do you know where Xiao Ye usually goes to play? Let's go find it."
Intuition told them that Gu Jingqi must have followed Tang Ye somewhere.
"I really don't know where he often goes recently. He has always been under the control of my mother. She usually takes him home and goes to school together. My mother has not been here these two days. I
There was also something wrong with my father’s piece factory, so I couldn’t take care of him at all.”
Unable to get any useful clues from Tang Jingyue, Tang Min stopped wasting time and planned to hang up the phone and find someone quickly, "Okay, then you go ahead and let's look around here first."
."
Tang Min handed the phone to Gu Jingchuan with a solemn expression, "Jingchuan, Jingyue said, Tang Ye is not at home either. Jing Qi is probably with Tang Ye. My second aunt is not at school these two days."
, I guess Tang Ye took Jing Qi to play."
Tang Ye has always been under strict supervision by Yang Yun. If Yang Yun is not at home, Tang Ye must be like a wild horse that has escaped the reins, wandering off somewhere.
It's so late at night that I can't find anyone, which is really worrying.
The two of them walked in the direction from school to home. Many shops were closed, and except for some night market stalls, there were really no people on the street.
It is completely different from the bustling city at night in later generations.
Gu Jingchuan and Tang Min searched back and forth on the street like headless flies, with no clue at all.
Gu Jingchuan had been tired from work all day, and his legs had not fully recovered. After running back and forth for a while, Tang Min could clearly feel that he was exhausted.
After walking for a while, he bent down and put his hands on his knees.
Tang Min held him in distress, "Jingchuan, you sit here and rest for a while, I'll go over there and take a look."
Gu Jingchuan stood up straight and leaned against the wall, "This is not the way to go. It's like a headless fly."
The darker it gets, the more panicked they become.
Gu Jingqi came to Bincheng not long ago. He usually lives between school and home. They really didn't expect him to go anywhere.
Besides, Jing Qi is not a random child. He will greet them in advance if something happens.
Tang Min was also very distressed, "The key is that Jingyue doesn't know where Tang Ye has gone. She and my second uncle are still busy working in a piece factory in the suburbs, and they can't care about Tang Ye at the moment."
She thought about it and suddenly thought of something, "By the way, I heard from Jing Yue that Tang Ye used to like playing games and was often beaten for stealing game consoles. Do you think it's possible for them to do so?"
Going to play games?”
In this era, Internet cafes have not yet become popular, but there are game arcades.
There are also arcade machines.
There is often a group of students gathering next to the arcade.
"Game arcade?" Gu Jingchuan pondered, "Where is the arcade near Bincheng No. 2 Middle School? Let me think about it..."
The two of them were just thinking about it when Gu Jingchuan's phone rang. He hurriedly picked it up. It was Tang Jingyue.
She asked, "Hey, Xiao Min, have you found it?"
Tang Min answered the phone, "No, we have searched all over this street and can't find him. It's almost eight o'clock. If we can't find him again, we have to call the police."
"Well, you go to the game arcade on Qingnian Road. I remember that Tang Ye often went to that game arcade last summer vacation. Later, my parents beat him up a few times and refused to give him any pocket money.
, he can’t go anymore.”
"Qingnian Road, right? Let's go there now." Tang Min nodded hurriedly.
Tang Jingyue comforted her, "Don't be too anxious. My dad and I are rushing back from the suburbs right now. If we can't find it in a while, we will all look for it separately."
Tang Ye used to run around a lot, so the Tang family didn't worry about him at all, but this time he brought Gu Jingqi with him, and they had to pay attention.
It's not that he's afraid that the two young men will be in any danger, Tang Jianye is simply worried that Tang Ye will lead Gu Jingqi into trouble.
If Tang Ye really fails to go to college in the future, Tang Jianye will find another way out for him, and he can do business with him.
Therefore, Tang Jianye must be Buddhist when it comes to Tang Ye’s education.
But Gu Jingqi is different.
Gu Jingchuan and Tang Min took him out of the countryside so that he could get into a good university and honor his family and change his destiny.
For rural children, to a large extent, if they want to get out of the mountains, the only way out is the college entrance examination.
Gu Jingchuan and Tang Min had particularly high expectations for him.
We must not let Tang Ye bring bad luck to others.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Min said to Gu Jingchuan, "Let's go to Qingnian Road. Jingyue said there is a game arcade there."
"good."
The two of them took a car again and hurried to Qingnian Road. After walking around on the roadside, they finally saw a game arcade with a neon sign on the door.
Tang Min pointed at Gu Jingchuan, "Jingchuan, look there is a game arcade over there, that's where Jingyue should be talking about."
"Let's go in and take a look."
Tang Min and Gu Jingchuan walked quickly to the game hall. As soon as they arrived at the door, they heard noisy sounds inside.
There were sounds coming from game consoles, and there were also exclamations from children playing games.
A mess of hair.
The two of them walked in and looked around.
The arcade is not big, but there are quite a lot of people.
There was a group of young children surrounding a game console at the back. One boy had a joyful time playing with the joystick in his right hand and the buttons in his left hand.
His skills seemed to be very powerful, and the children around him exclaimed in surprise from time to time.
Gu Jingchuan's eyes fell keenly on the schoolbag thrown next to the game console.
He pulled Tang Min, raised his chin slightly, and gestured to her, "Over there."
Tang Min followed his gaze and looked over.
A group of students who looked like junior high school students were huddled together.
Surrounded by a young man who was concentrating on playing the game.
The light in the arcade was not very bright, and her eyes were really not as sharp as Gu Jingchuan's.
She followed Gu Jingchuan and pushed through.
Gu Jingchuan's face was dark, and he pulled over a boy. The boy was disturbed and wanted to complain. Suddenly he raised his head and looked at the man with a strong aura. He shrank in fear.
