It was already bright when we got home, and Han Ziqi first made some food for my parents.
My parents ate in a hurry and asked me while eating: "When are we going to save Zhaoting?"
"Tonight." Chaoyang replied immediately.
I also nodded: "If we hurry, we can rescue Zhao Ting and Duan Yi Lulu in one night."
My mother silently put down her chopsticks, her brows furrowed and said, "You have already alerted the enemy tonight."
I also know this truth, but I feel really impatient and uneasy. There are rows of tubes. When I think about it, I feel very scared. I am really afraid that if it is too late, it will be too late.
Whether it is Zhao Ting, Lulu or Aunt Duan, if anything happens to anyone, I will always live with guilt, because I am clearly capable.
"I'll go to my mother's side." Fang Zhongyu and Chen Xi opened the door and walked in.
Fang Zhongyu walked to the kitchen in a few steps and drank a large glass of water. He was still forcing a smile: "I scolded him so hard that my throat is very dry."
"..."
Fang Zhongyu's smile soon became unsustainable. His eyes turned red a little, and he put down his cup and walked up the stairs.
We looked at his back and remained silent.
I can understand Fang Zhongyu's feeling of powerlessness. Aunt Duan and Lulu are the two most important women in his life.
My dad sighed: "Hey, I'm just old, otherwise I could go with Xiaoyu."
My mother clenched her chopsticks tightly, said nothing, lowered her head and took a bite of the fish.
But I was really worried about Fang Zhongyu going by himself. I turned to Chaoyang and said, "Tonight... how about you accompany Fang Zhongyu?"
"?" Chaoyang asked with questions all over his face, "What should you do yourself?"
Han Ziqi pinched his cell phone: "Chaoyang and Fang Zhongyu, Nuan Ting and I."
"You have it." Fang Zhongyu poked his head down the stairs again, "You are so weak, do you want to hit someone with a piano key?"
Han Ziqi: "..."
Han Ziqi pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly: "I didn't say I was going either. I'm at home, discussing with Nuan Ting remotely."
"Oh, that's fine."
I nodded: "That's it, parents, what do you think?"
I looked at my parents eagerly. We had not been close for long after we met again twelve years ago. I really wanted to hear them praise me again.
But things have changed and people have changed, and now this occasion is no longer suitable for laughter.
My dad put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth melancholy and worriedly: "Nuan Ting, my parents are old. They can't make up their mind about your plan, but if you need our help, your parents will never refuse."
After my dad finished speaking, we all fell silent.
Elders are always elders and are always thinking about us.
Later, my parents went upstairs to rest.
We planned to take a rest after dinner and wait until dark before setting off. During this time, Chen Xi was busy in the kitchen without saying a word.
It's like a different person, silent.
I winked at Han Ziqi. Han Ziqi held his head in annoyance, and his hair was scratched into a chicken nest.
...Forget it, let me go.
Needless to say, at this moment, I was still a little scared, after all, I had hidden it from Chen Xi for so long.
I walked behind Chen Xi and called her weakly: "Chen Xi..."
The morning light paid no attention to me, but the sound of chopping bones made me almost think that I was the bones on the chopping board.
Looking at the gesture of raising and lowering the knife, the cutting board was almost broken into pieces.
The flesh on my arm twitched with the banging sound.
"Morning light..."
"Nuan Ting, what on earth are you thinking?" Chen Xi's muffled voice rang out, and I could only see the back of her head and the movement of wiping tears, "Am I someone who can't share weal and woe with you? And
My parents..."
Chenxi suddenly squatted on the ground and cried loudly.
My heart was broken. I hugged her and squatted on the ground with her crying.
The sound of crying filled the entire living room. Han Ziqi did not dare to come down after entering the room, but I heard his low cry.
But reality is not over yet.
After crying, you need to wipe away your tears and move forward.
At night, we divided into two teams and ran to the west and south respectively.
According to what Sun Ping said, I went to the farm in the west to look for Zhao Ting. After leaving the abandoned items not far from the farm, I discovered that the farm in the west was exactly the same as the one in the north.
I don’t know if Fang Zhongyu and Chaoyang went south.
I told Han Ziqi, sneaked into the farm, and went straight to the northern well.
But there are more people in this farm than in the previous two farms, and they seem to be on guard against us.
But no matter how many there are, they are just people from the Eternal Life Organization, so there won’t be much more.
I hid near the well, opened my five senses, and finally caught a few words of Chinese in the garbled conversation.
"The farm to the east was destroyed yesterday, which delayed the man's feeding. The leader was very angry and asked us to deal with three times as many people tonight."
"But when there are more people, you may find something is wrong. Everyone needs to pay attention at all times."
"I know, by the way, has the child been found?"
child?
Are you talking about Zhaoting?
Zhaoting is missing?
"Not yet. This little brat is so naughty. You have to be very alert to be with him. There are too many tricks. If you don't pay attention, you won't know where to go."
"Don't worry, things are urgent right now. The farm is so big, where can he go if he runs away? Besides, he might have starved to death long ago if he doesn't have anything to eat or drink."
"!!!"starve?!!
I quickly let go of my senses to look for it, and then... I was stunned for a moment.
There were a lot of people at the farm gate, and they seemed to be just people working on the farm.
Zhao Ting took advantage of the fact that they didn't recognize him and followed a woman in a swaggering manner.
That intimate gesture... seemed like they knew each other very well.
Judging by the expressions of the people passing by, they thought the woman had something to do with Zhaoting, so they didn't care.
When the woman was about to discover him, Zhaoting changed someone to follow her.
He...even went to the house of the man who had just greeted the woman and asked for two pieces of bread and water.
After that, Zhao Ting sneaked out, climbed up a pile of wooden boxes, found a deserted corner, and ate there to eat. The most terrible thing was that there was a camera in front of him, but Zhao Ting was there.
The camera has a blind spot.
After Zhao Ting finished eating, he tilted his chin and looked at the sky. After holding his mouth shut, he started to cry.
I really wanted to laugh and feel sad at the same time.
What makes me laugh is that fortunately my brother is smart. Although he is not a big man, he is very clever and can survive in this situation.
What's sad is that he is only six years old and so small that he is almost dead when he is nestled in the gap. It is really pitiful.
Since everything was OK here in Zhaoting, it would be much easier for me. I avoided the camera and rushed towards the door. I quietly landed behind Zhaoting and covered his mouth: "Shh."
Zhaoting turned around in disbelief and opened his big watery eyes, and a small voice came out from under my palm: "Sister! You're here, woohoo, I want to pee, it's suffocating me to death."
"...So you're crying because you're holding it in?"
