The communication room was filled with smoke, and the security guard specially made room for Mr. Ye Bei and brought a fruit plate, snacks and tea soup.
Ye Bei immediately waved his hand and took out two cans of Wangyou tea from his bag.
"I have, I have..."
As soon as Su Xingchen sat down, he took out his cell phone and interrogated the uncle who was looking for the child like a prisoner.
"Name."
Uncle replied nervously: "Jiang Zhengchu."
Su Xingchen: "Age."
Uncle Zhengchu: "Fifty-nine..."
Su Xingchen: "Place of origin."
Uncle Zhengchu: "Shandong ZB, I'm from Zhoucun."
Su Xingchen: "Do you have any brothers or sisters?"
Uncle Zhengchu: "I am from the Zheng generation. My two brothers are Zhengguo and Zhengwei. My three sisters are Zhenghua, Zhengmei and Zhengfang. I am the third among the six sisters."
Ye Bei couldn't listen anymore.
"Brother! Just listen to me! I'm here to find the child, not the father."
Su Xingchen shrugged, as if "you go ahead, you go".
Xueming pushed the snack box in front of Uncle Zhengchu, and then asked.
"Uncle, can you tell me in detail what the child looks like, how old he was when he was lost, where he lost the baby, and where he has been over the years. Is there anyone who can help you?"
At the beginning, my uncle dug out a thick leather book from the baggage. The outer cover had been curled, and many pieces of leather had fallen off.
He licked his thumb, opened the book, and immediately had a smile on his face.
He took out a missing person notice from the page of the book, which contained a photo of the little boy, his name, height, and the clothes he was wearing when he went missing.
"This is my son. He was lost when he was four years old. He was wearing a blue, red and white striped woolen sweater with a small Transformers jacket on top. I don't remember the brand of children's shoes, but they were red and denim.
Overalls.”
Xueming: "Is there anything else? Try to be as detailed as possible. When did you get lost?"
Uncle Zhengchu: "After I was laid off from the steel factory, I quarreled with my wife and my child wanted to divorce me. I secretly took my child back to Pingxiang, Jiangxi. She slept on the train and the child disappeared."
Xueming: "Do you remember which station it is?"
"I don't remember." Uncle Zhengchu shook his head, his mood very stable, "She just took a nap. When she woke up, she had already arrived at the terminal. It would be too late to look for her again."
Except for Uncle Zhengchu, the other three people were silent.
For an unsolved case like this, it would be extremely difficult to find the person. There are so many people and so many families in Greater China. The child that Uncle Zhengchu is looking for should be twenty-two years old this year. If he is healthy,
When Kang grows up, he may have become someone else's son and have feelings for someone else.
"I have been running on this railway. In the early years, I begged many, many human traffickers, spent a lot of money, gave them gifts and red envelopes, and wanted to know the whereabouts of the baby, but..."
Ye Bei interrupted: "You expect criminals to find out with their conscience? Impossible."
Xueming added: "Only the law, handcuffs and bullets can make them obedient, serve their sentence and confess."
Su Xingchen sighed: "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard, it's not hard." Uncle Zhengchu smiled sarcastically, with a hint of guilt and embarrassment in his smile. These three young people were like three different flames. They had different expressions, but their words all had a radical and fierce meaning.
.
Uncle Zhengchu was just an ordinary person, without such a powerful voice and authority, and without such a brave soul and will.
He went on to explain: "I always have to give it a try. The local police are very good and the people are very nice, but they can't help me, so I go to the traffickers - I am very smart, and these people take my money."
He Li, you must think that I am easy to deceive and easy to bully. There are always recordings left in my mobile phone. I have cooperated with the police many times and I can catch a few people every time. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to find these people.
, I have only done it about ten times. With the special campaign to crack down on crime and eliminate evil, it becomes increasingly difficult to find them."
Ye Bei gestured with his thumb: "Awesome."
Xueming didn't dare to think that this kind of experience of going to Longtan alone might not happen once in a lifetime for ordinary citizens, but Uncle Zhengchu had been running around for eighteen years, and these dozen battles of wits and courage with criminals seemed to
It's just a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning on the way to find a bride.
After a long time, Su Xingchen finally spoke: "Have you been looking for your son? Have you ever thought about giving up?"
When Uncle Zhengchu heard this dissuasive inquiry, he just smoked and didn't speak for a long, long time.
Su Xingchen immediately explained: "I'm not asking you to give up, uncle, I don't mean that - it's just that I think you should have a better life. I saw you alone. I'm afraid my aunt really left you later.
You said that you have so many brothers and sisters, but they are not with you. This road has paid too much and gained too little. I will infer based on your own experience that even if you are laid off, you will return to your hometown.
Find a job and continue living with your wife, it should be much easier than now."
"It's not this..." Uncle Zhengchu frowned and suddenly started to wave his hands: "It's not this... no, no, no... I'm here to ask you where my son is, not to listen to your lectures."
Xueming grabbed Su Xingchen's hand and said in a cold tone: "He knows what he wants, brother Xingchen."
Ye Bei grabbed Xingchen's other hand: "He knows, he knows everything. He knows very well that he is fifty-nine years old, and the combined age of both of us can make him call "good brother" - don't say
These useless things are quite useful."
Before Su Xingchen could change his words, the awkward atmosphere eased.
At the beginning, my uncle talked about his experiences along the way and the past along the way.
"You have hobbies, right? Everyone has them, such as studying music, playing games, riding motorcycles, or watching movies. You have so much time, you can do these things after get off work, right?"
Jiang Xueming: "Yes."
Uncle Zhengchu hurriedly explained: "Looking for my son is my hobby. I can do odd jobs while looking for him at the same time. I can do it. I am doing very well. I am really doing very well."
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He rolled up his sleeves to reveal his thick knuckles. His nails were very clean and there was no sludge. He often bathed and rubbed his head and took good care of his body. Iron powder
All the oil and dirt were cleaned up.
"You see, I used to work in the steel coil workshop in the factory. I would protect myself well. Later, I made diesel engines and helped people repair tractors. I had already made plans. Many traffickers said that in the countryside, they like to take boys for retirement. They
A tractor is needed to transport goods, and a tractor is needed to build a self-built building. I thought, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the basics of people's livelihood. I can travel far and wide and take care of my hobbies by starting with this transportation. It shouldn't be difficult to find my son."
A bad cat jumped out from Ye Bei's chest. It sat beside the table, lowered its eyes and pursed its lips, listening quietly.
Uncle Zhengchu continued: "I met a lot of people and went to many places, different places."
He opened the yellowed paper and pointed at the names one by one.
Departing from Shandong to the railway station cities along Jiangxi.
Turning over page after page, there is a personal name and an account.
There are countless people who have helped him, with almost more than 1,300 names.
It can be as small as a steamed bun, or as large as a cash loan of several thousand yuan.
"There must be more good people than bad people." Uncle Zhengchu nodded vigorously: "I don't have anything, so I work for others in exchange for money, food, drink, and travel expenses. You can't use up all your strength!"
Turn to the next page, which is the three-guarantee maintenance site for each diesel-powered tractor.
From Wuqiang Power Co., Ltd. in Hengyin City to Jiangxi Huanghe Machinery Manufacturing Factory.
He worked as a maintenance man in forty-eight different diesel engine factories, drove a reliable tractor through countless mountain roads, and traveled between villages and cities.
"Don't worry about me." Uncle Zhengchu said with a smile: "My salary is very high, more than 12,000 yuan a month at most. I have also repaired the diesel engine of the sand dredging engineering ship. That is my most expensive job."
When I have money, I will save it to buy a house and a car for my son - I can do these jobs quickly and well. I am thinking that if he can't drive, I will be his driver. People who can drive tractors can start driving.
They are all very powerful.”
Ye Bei: "Have you ever thought about reorganizing your family?"
"No need." Uncle Zhengchu understood what this kind man meant and was about to refuse.
Ye Bei quickly explained: "What I mean is that if you have someone to help you, you have your wife, children, relatives and friends to help you find it, with more people and strength, there will always be a way - Hengyin is connected in all directions, and there used to be a lot of people in Pingyang County
Regarding the kidnapping case, I have received guests like you before, uncle, and they also came looking for children. It is better to ask friends or relatives to inquire about it than to find a needle in a haystack alone."
"I've thought about it too." At this point, Uncle Zhengchu began to scratch his head: "After the divorce, there were several suitable partners who wanted to live with me. There must have been four or five of them."
Su Xingchen's eyes widened: "Four or five?"
"Hey..." Uncle Zhengchu pursed his lips and said in embarrassment: "They are all chasing after each other, I can't stay here - they are always running around outside, and they don't necessarily come back home a few times throughout the year. I can't let them become widows, right?
.”
At this point, the story becomes more complicated and lengthy.
"The first one was a sister from the dry cleaning shop. She had a daughter. Her husband ran away due to gambling. It was very hard for her to raise the child by herself, so I stayed with her for half a year. At first we just lived together, but later she became more and more demanding.
The more she complained, she felt that my heart was not at home. She wanted not only money, but also my time and asked me not to look for my son, so I separated from her."
At the beginning, uncle finished smoking a cigarette and lit another one.
"The second one is the eldest sister who works as a kitchen knife maker in Guizhou. She is very lively. Her husband had a man outside and she cut off one of her hands. She paid over 100,000 yuan in compensation and could not find her after she was released from prison.
I was working as a busboy in a cold storage fresh food market and a restaurant in Guiyang. She said that I was good-looking and had a persistence that men of other genders didn’t have. She wanted to continue our relationship with me and have a baby for me - but then I talked in my sleep at night and couldn’t.
Missing my baby. She couldn't get angry and separated from me."
Ye Bei whispered to Xingchen: "This life experience is too bizarre."
Xingchen and Ye Bei said calmly: "It's probably because of Uncle Zhengchu's persistence that we can create such a journey."
At the beginning, my uncle talked about another woman again.
"I was in Guangzhou. When I was taking a break from work, I was going from Zengcheng to Pazhou to watch Jacky Cheung's concert. A girl in her twenties grabbed me and said that I looked like a model. I was 40 at that time.
I'm four years old, and I'm an old-timer who doesn't know anything about fashion... I've been struggling with this little girl for half a month. I want her to be a good person and find a healthy and active boy of similar age to her.
She followed me wherever I went, and she had a headache - she said that the people around her were so naive and not as pragmatic as me. I agreed to have a meal with her at Taiping Pavilion on BJ Road as a date, and told her about this restaurant.
, that was the store where the great revolutionary leader went. I told her that I should study for the rise of China and do things for the happiness of the people. After the date, I ran away with my luggage. Later I thought I must have hurt this
The girl's heart felt uncomfortable for a long, long time."
My uncle has a typical northern build, his shoulders are so broad that he can almost block the door, and he is about 1.85 meters tall.
Even though he is fifty-nine years old, he still looks like an old bear.
"I followed the Jiangxi railway line to look for AH and Hangzhou. There was a female reporter. She must have been in her thirties in 10 years and was from Nantong. She was very interested in my story. She interviewed me. Damn
She made a lot of money from the stories we wrote together - she told me that we should get married and then find her son together. In this way, she could always make money from her news and do good things. I was so happy at the time
. Later I found out that she was lying to me. When the newspaper published the December news, I could no longer see the missing persons notice, and she had found other materials. So we cut off contact."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! These stories in the notebook are just a very few paragraphs.
"I returned to Hengyin and rented a house. The landlady negotiated terms with me. She owns more than thirty houses and earns more than 40,000 yuan from rent collection every month. She wants me to be the second landlord.
I'm running around outside, please give me a certificate, and I will collect the rent from now on. During the day, I will serve the tenant's water, electricity and property management, repair furniture and install light bulbs. I also learned how to install network cables and WIFI, and I will take care of her at night - I only have one request.
She found her son. We all got along well at first. Later, her two sons graduated and went home to hang out. They didn’t get along with me. They kept making things difficult for me, looking down on me, and finding things for me to do. The more time I had, the more
She comes less and less and has no way to run out. I don't want to have any conflicts with them. If my son is found, he will probably have conflicts with their family, so I broke up with her."
Su Xingchen: "Bad woman..."
"No, she is a good woman. She knows everything." Uncle Zhengchu explained: "She knows everything. She has helped me many times and helped me find my son. Now she occasionally sends me emails every month.
I dare not accept the red envelope or invite me out for dinner, because I’m afraid that if I accept it, I won’t be able to leave.”
Ye Bei: "Are there any others?"
Uncle Zhengchu was puzzled: "I have only experienced these feelings, nothing else."
Ye Bei: "No... I mean, are there any other clues?"
"Not only did I lose a son, my wife should also have lost a daughter." Uncle Zhengchu frowned and told the three of them in detail: "When she divorced me, she had been pregnant for a long time. She usually
She is very careful and a very calculating person. Before I was laid off, we agreed to divorce and live our own lives. She found a new wife in the lumber business, and when she was forty, she wanted to give birth to a baby for her.
, so that we can marry in peace and contentment. I quarreled with her because of this matter - the child in her belly is not mine. She and my son are half-brothers and sisters."
Having said this, my uncle handed cigarettes to the two distinguished guests at the beginning.
"At that time, she was pregnant, an advanced maternal age, and she was trading her life for a smooth life. She was emotionally unstable. We had no relationship for a long time. We just talked about the separation of the family. She was angry and I was angry, so she ran out with her son.
In the end, her son was lost, and she was so angry that she gave birth prematurely. She gave birth to a baby girl at the Railway Hospital in Pingxiang, and she was also taken away, as if she was being targeted by human traffickers and followed her all the way."
Ye Bei: "What happened next?"
Uncle Zhengchu: "What happened later was that she felt embarrassed and was so angry that she wanted to commit suicide. Fortunately, her new husband was a good person and lived a good life with her. I have been looking for him and I haven't stopped."
