Chapter 29
After making arrangements, Ning Cheng and his father went to the village to find someone, Zhang Heping packed up and went to the county to pick up the child, while Zhu Ximei stayed at the caretaker's house and waited.

The father and son searched almost all the places around the village and asked everyone they met, but no one had seen Ning Qiu.

It wasn't until dark that the father and son returned home with heavy faces.

Zhang Heping has already picked up the children and came back. There are meals on the table, and the children are engrossed in eating.But Zhu Ximei and Zhang Heping didn't move their chopsticks, and when they saw someone coming back, they both looked behind them nervously.

"Where's Qiu'er?" The old lady's voice trembled a little.

Ning Hongfu took off the hat on his head and held it tightly in his hands. "No one was found..."

Zhu Ximei's face suddenly turned pale, and Ning Cheng became anxious when she saw her.

"Mom, don't worry, I'll go to the village chief in a while, no! I'll go directly to the police station in the county!"

Ning Hongfu was also frightened by his wife's expression, "Children's mother, don't be angry, maybe Qiu'er lost her way, don't worry, don't worry."

Zhu Ximei trembled, "Go and find Qiu'er! You must find it!!"

Frightened by the old lady's tone, the children raised their heads and stared blankly.Although they are still young, they can still understand what adults say.

The solemn expression on the adult's face also affected them, and they all shut their mouths tightly and dared not say a word.

Seeing that her mother-in-law was angry, Zhang Heping hurriedly helped her to a chair and sat down, with her hands along the old man's chest.

"Mother, don't worry. We're all looking for Qiu here. If you fall ill like last time, what will you do?"

Zhang Heping turned her head, "Chengzi, quickly bring the medicine that was prepared in the county last time!"

Ning Cheng replied in a panic, and ran to the back room to get the medicine.

When he came out again, he was holding a bunch of medicine bottles in his hand, "I don't know what kind, I brought them all, take a look."

Zhang Heping picked up one of the bottles, "Go and pour water!"

After taking the water glass from Ning Cheng, Zhang Heping continued to persuade. "Mother, you must take care of your health at this time, come and take the medicine first."

Of course Zhu Ximei understood this reason, she took the medicine without saying a word and swallowed it with water.

"I'm fine. I've taken all the medicine. It's more important to find Qiu'er first."

Ning Hongfu was also anxious, and after his wife said so, he asked his son to go to the village chief's house together.

Before going out, Zhang Heping gave Chengzi some pancakes. "Eat something on the way with Dad, don't be hungry."

"Oh, I see, you stay at home and look after your mother."

"I know, you go quickly."

Ning Hongfu and Ning Cheng hurried to the village chief's house, and Zhang Changwang was surprised to see them.

"Hey? What's the matter? Are you not eating at home at this time?"

"Village Chief, Qiu is gone?!"

Zhang Changwang was taken aback, "What, disappeared?! What do you mean?"

Ning Cheng explained from the side, "My mother said that the child was playing in the yard well, but when she woke up from a doze, she disappeared."

Zhang Changwang frowned, "Have you searched in your village?"

"I've searched for it several times, and asked everyone I saw, but no one has seen Qiu."

"Could the child run up the mountain alone and get lost?"

Ning Hongfu said firmly, "That child is obedient, he won't run around casually, and even if he wants to go out, he will greet people in advance."

Thinking of what the police comrade said to him today, Zhang Changwang also felt that something was not right.

"When will the child not be seen?"

"afternoon."

Zhang Changwang frowned and thought for a while, "Well, I'll take you to the police station in the county right now."

"Oh! Good!"

Ning Qiu stayed in the dark car for most of the day. At night, the tall and thin man jumped into the car, loosened the ropes that bound the children, and threw three military water bottles and a bag of steamed buns into the back of the car.

"Don't shit and pee in the car. If you want to shit, just knock on the glass window in front! Do you understand!?" The man yelled viciously at the dozen or so children in the car.

The children shrank back in fear, not even daring to look at the man.

A young girl burst into tears, and the man pointed at her and scolded her.

"Don't cry! If I hear anyone making a sound, I'll tie you up again! No food or water! Do you understand!!"

The little girl was so frightened that she immediately covered her mouth, sobbing muffledly.

The man snorted coldly, and closed the door of the rear compartment with a 'touch', and the interior of the compartment became dark again.

Ning Qiu glanced at the things on the ground and moved his body.With the light coming in through the gap, he picked up a water bottle, unscrewed the lid and took a sip.He took another steamed bun from the package and gnawed it mouthful.

Suddenly a dirty little hand stretched out from the side, and took away a kettle and a steamed bun.

Ning Qiu looked over, and this person turned out to be a local girl.She gnawed on the steamed buns, as if she had been hungry for a long time.

Perhaps because she sensed that Ning Qiu was looking at her, she glanced back coldly, then retreated into a dark corner with her things.

The vehicle kept moving, and Ning Qiu looked out through the gap.There are street lights on the road, flickering past in front of my eyes.

This broken car can't drive fast, at most sixty to seventy kilometers per hour. The car I was thrown into between three and four in the afternoon has been driving for about five hours.

Where is this car going?

On the other side, Ning Hongfu and his son arrived at the county police station in the village chief's tractor.As soon as they arrived at the gate of the police station, a few people were stunned. There were many people standing inside, and they were all farmers nearby.

A woman was crying loudly, and even a man was wiping away his tears, and several policemen tried their best to comfort her.

Just as they were about to go in, they were blocked by an old man at the door.

"Are you here to dispatch everything?"

The village head said, "Oh, old comrade, we are from Xiashan Village, and the children in the village are lost."

"What!? Your village also lost children?"

"No, I lost it this afternoon."

"Then you go in?"

Zhang Changwang asked the old man suspiciously, "Uh...Excuse me, who are those people...?"

The old man shook his head and sighed, "Hey, they all lost their children, and there are several nearby villages."

"What!?" Several people were dumbfounded.

A young policeman saw several people coming in and came over to inquire.

"You are……"

Before a few people recovered from the shock, the old man at the door spoke for them.

"Xiao Zhang, their child is also lost, it's from Xiashan Village."

The young policeman frowned, "Then you all come with me to register first."

Only then did Zhang Changwang come to his senses, and he dragged the Ning family and his son into the police station.

"Director, there is another family here to report the case."

Sitting in the office was a middle-aged man in his 50s or [-]s who was wearing a uniform. He had a serious expression but a gentle tone.

"Sit down first, and tell me the specific situation." Then he looked at a policeman next to him, indicating that he could record.
