The next day, Miss Mazi came to Tao Xiaoqi's pharmacy. Tao Xiaoqi explained the work content to her, and after a brief training, she let her start.

Miss Mazi is a little confused, so she's on the job now?
"Why are you still standing there, work." Tao Xiaoqi urged, as naturally as if the two of them had never had any grievances, never had any feuds.

When the sister-in-law came over, the pockmarked girl was already busy, and the sister-in-law gave her a wary look, "It's so early?"

Miss Mazi smiled, "Sister-in-law Zhou Lan, I always get up early."

The sister-in-law felt a little ashamed.

"Sister-in-law, didn't Mo girl bring it?" Tao Xiaoqi asked after preparing the medicine.

"I let her stay at home. Aren't I afraid of getting in the way when I bring her here?"

"Then can she do it at home by herself?" Tao Xiaoqi was a little worried.

"Don't worry, it's okay, she doesn't play with others, she just stays in the courtyard."

Tao Xiaoqi stopped asking.

However, before noon, Mrs. Li ran over in a panic, yelling that Mo girl was gone.

"No, mother, she never runs around." The sister-in-law said as she took off her apron and ran back.

Tao Xiaoqi gave a warning to Miss Mazi, and followed her out.

Sure enough, she was not at home, and she searched inside and out, but she did not see Mo girl, so the sister-in-law felt a little flustered and became anxious.

"Let's look separately, sister-in-law, think about where Mo girl likes to go on weekdays?" Tao Xiaoqi asked.

"No, no." The sister-in-law just murmured, "Girl Mo doesn't know where to play at all, but I hope she can go somewhere to play..."

At first, everyone didn’t take it seriously, thinking that the dolls were playful and came back when they were tired. But when the sun set in the evening and it was getting dark, Mo girl still couldn’t be found, and the people of Mantou Village followed her. I found it.

During the day, the people from Lao Li's family had already searched all over the village, and now the folks in Mantou Village searched again, as rigorously as a carpet search, but they still found nothing.

"Where could this be going? A living person just disappeared like this for no reason!" The eldest brother held his head, unable to figure it out, and couldn't figure it out.

The elder sister-in-law was tired from crying, and now she was holding a piece of Mo girl's clothes, her face was pale, she couldn't say anything, and she blamed herself very much, if only she was with her during the day, if she didn't act like this capable person, she would Well, her girl Mo will not disappear.

Just when everyone was at their wit's end and couldn't figure out what to do, Sun Wangcai interjected, "It seemed that a beggar entered the village earlier, and when he left, he seemed to be followed by a little guy."

"Who are you following? Is it Mo girl?" The sister-in-law asked eagerly while grabbing Sun Wangcai.

"It's far away, so I didn't see it clearly. I just remember that it was a doll. Didn't there used to be dolls playing around behind a beggar? Who would have thought that it would be Mo girl, and she followed her away. Who would a normal child go with a beggar? .” Sun Wangcai said.

The Li family gave him a gouged look, "Why didn't you say it earlier?!"

"Didn't I just remember it now?" Sun Wangcai looked at his wife Tao Xiaoqi in front of him, afraid that she would find out that he had been hiding in the medicine field for a long time and slept in for a long time. over this.

"Where did you see them go?" Tao Xiaoqi asked the key point.

"At the entrance of the village, go out of the village."

"Facing south or north?"

"I don't know, I haven't reached the fork in the road when I saw it."

This is tricky. The roads facing south and north go to different places, one is in the direction of the county seat, and the other is in the direction of neighboring provinces.

"Brother and sister-in-law, I suggest that we divide our soldiers into two groups to chase after him, maybe we can ask them." Tao Xiaoqi suggested.

The eldest brother and sister-in-law looked at their parents.

"Father and mother, hurry up and talk about it." Tao Xiaoqi asked instead.

The old man Li, who had never spoken, finally said, "Then let's look for it, but it's been so long, it's hanging."

So Lao Li's family, together with some villagers who volunteered to help, divided into two teams and went to the two directions of the fork.

The second elder brother and the second sister-in-law happened to be in the same team as Tao Xiaoqi. When they first set off, the second sister-in-law felt that the night was too dark, so she turned back and brought a flashlight by herself.

"What a bunch of idiots." The second sister-in-law muttered, and was caught by Tao Xiaoqi in front of her.

"Second sister-in-law, what do you mean by that?"

"It's not obvious enough, the sky is bright, who—"

"Stop talking nonsense, look for it quickly! Why do you still have time to chat?" The second brother scolded, dragging his wife aside.

Tao Xiaoqi felt that something was wrong, the second sister-in-law seemed to have something to say, but was stopped by the second brother, what could not be said to her?
Tao Xiaoqi couldn't figure it out.

Everyone found it in the middle of the night, couldn't stand it anymore, and still got nothing. Slowly, some people began to retreat, and if there was one, there would be two. Finally, everyone unanimously suggested to go back home.

Tao Xiaoqi stood in the dark night where she couldn't see her fingers. She didn't feel afraid, but felt sad, just like the fate of Mo girl, as if she was not recognized since she came into this world, full of tragedy.

She always felt that Mo Yatou's disappearance was a bit strange, but it was impossible for someone to do it on purpose. Mo Yatou was already very pitiful, who could be so cruel?Tao Xiaoqi didn't dare to think about it, nor did she want to think about it.

Back in the village, the big brother's team also came back, Tao Xiaoqi was very surprised, she thought that the big brother, sister-in-law and the others would find dawn anyway, but they also came back.

"I've looked for it and asked people along the way, but they all said they didn't see it." The elder brother said dejectedly.

Although Tao Xiaoqi still had many doubts in her heart at this time, seeing that the rest of Lao Li's family had given up, she kept silent, especially her eldest brother and sister-in-law who also gave up with no hope. What do you say?

When everyone went back, Tao Xiaoqi took the sister-in-law aside and asked her to think about whether there was anything wrong during the day, Mo girl or others, think about it.

The sister-in-law thought about it for a while, then shook her head, "I didn't find anything wrong. I have pity on my Mo girl, who just disappeared like this. It's my mother who hurt her!"

The sister-in-law was crying, and she didn't even dare to cry loudly. Tao Xiaoqi felt panicked when she saw it, and patted the sister-in-law on the back, "I think we still have to call the police."

The next day, she gave her elder brother a holiday and asked him to call the police. The elder brother returned within two hours.

"Did you call the police? Has the Public Security Bureau filed a case?"

The eldest brother shook his head, "It is said that the case will not be filed within 24 hours."

"Then what are you doing when you come back, wait there." Tao Xiaoqi was so anxious, this wooden man!
"There is still a lot of work in the medicine field, and it is a waste of time there. I will come back first." The eldest brother said, and went to the field.

Tao Xiaoqi hugged her full, and suddenly hugged her tightly, her face pressed against her small face, and murmured, "Mom will never lose you."
