Chapter 224: Blind Date
Song Yu's mind was like a mess, and he couldn't figure it out.
Peng Xi knew her worries, and she was also worried about the safety of the little girl, so she reached out and patted Song Yu's shoulder, and said, "Don't worry too much, it's inevitable that the old man will remember mistakes when he is old." Whether it has been taken away by the welfare home will be known tomorrow. ”
It's useless to worry about it now, it's just a vain worry.
Song Yu nodded and squeezed out a smile.
The two of them had been running back and forth without eating, and they were already hungry by this time. Neither of them was in a hurry to go home, Peng Xi saw that there was a large food stall outside, so he took Song Yu over and sat down, and then asked the boss to fry rice.
At this time, there were not many people in the food stalls, and Peng Xi talked with the boss. She deliberately wanted to inquire, and deliberately introduced the topic to the fact that the little girl's parents committed suicide by jumping off the building.
The boss was a nearby person, sighed and said, "The most pitiful thing is the child." Her dad wasn't a thing, and her grandparents weren't much better, just a pair of insatiable misers. I go to travel every year to buy this and that, but I am reluctant to spend a dime on my juniors. The year she gave birth to the child, her mother was bleeding profusely and was waiting for money to save her life. But her grandparents didn't come up with a penny. Later, I heard that the doctors in the hospital couldn't bear to vouch for it. Her mother has been cleaning in the hospital all these years. It should not be long before the debt is repaid. ”
Peng Xi asked about the little girl again, but the boss and the old man and the old lady didn't know much about it. said that she had only seen the little girl once, and she probably made her grandparents angry and stood alone in the corridor.
The news was useless, there were guests coming, and the boss was in a hurry.
Song Yu and Peng Xi didn't speak, and only when they went to stop the car on the side of the road after eating did Peng Xi ask and answer: "Ah Yu, do you think this thing is a little weird?" She didn't wait for Song Yu to speak, and then said: "This thing seems to be premeditated." How do those fake people know that the child's grandparents will definitely give the child to them?"
They're like they've been investigating and they've been paying attention. Otherwise, how could a child come here for a few days and then come to the door and take someone away?
If someone really has investigated and been paying attention, it is undoubtedly creepy. What is the purpose of what they are doing these things?
Of course, it can never be a good thing. If it's a good thing, you can't be guilty of pretending to be a staff member of a welfare home.
Song Yu naturally thought of all of this, so he was so uneasy. Her heart seemed to be weighed on a thousand pounds, she was silent for a while, and said, "If you still can't find it tomorrow, it should be premeditated." "Because I have investigated early and know what kind of people the child's grandparents are, I will be relieved to boldly pretend to be a staff member to come to the door to take the child away.
Looking for a fight or not, this is a result that everyone does not want to see.
Song was a little tired, took out his mobile phone, looked at the time, and said, "I'll go to the editor-in-chief tomorrow morning to see if the club can provide any help." ”
This is also a way, and if you want to find people, it is best to use the power of the media.
Peng Xi nodded and said yes.
The two of them stood on the side of the road not long before a taxi came, and then they got into the car. Everyone had their own thoughts, and no one spoke for a while.
When he returned home, Song Yu collapsed on the bed after a simple wash. She was so depressed that her chest was so heavy that she couldn't breathe.
It's been a few days, and she doesn't even know if the little girl is still in Qinghe City. Or, whether they are still alive and well.
Just thinking about it made people feel cold, and she forced herself not to think about anything, and lay down with her eyes closed.
She woke up early the next day, and the first thing she did when she got up was to call the police station and ask if there was any news. It was still early when she called, and the two policemen who handled the matter yesterday had not yet gone to work, and they needed to wait until they went to work to find out.
Song was a little disappointed, and asked the person who answered the phone to inform the two policemen that they must call her back if there is news.
When she went to work in the morning, she kept an eye on the editor-in-chief's office, and when the editor-in-chief came to work, she went over and told her about yesterday.
The editor-in-chief frowned when he heard this, and asked her to follow the matter.
Song then wanted to publish a missing person notice, so he told the editor-in-chief about this idea.
The editor-in-chief's face was solemn and said, "It's not appropriate. Now I don't know what those two people are doing, and they boldly post a missing person notice, and no one knows what those two people will do. After a slight pause, he continued: "You go to the police station today, and then discuss it when you have a little clue." ”
Song Yu nodded in response. They really don't have any clue right now.
She didn't delay any longer, and after leaving the office, she put on her bag and went to the police station. When she passed, the station had already started to work, because she had called in the morning, and the two policemen who handled the matter yesterday were not surprised to see her, and when they saw her, they said: "Reporter Song, you came just in time, and I was about to call you." We have called all the welfare homes in the city and sent pictures of the child, but none of the welfare homes in the city have seen the child. None of the workers came to the door to pick up the child. ”
After a slight pause, he continued: "We now suspect that the child's grandparents may not be telling the truth, and now we have to go over there." If they really didn't lie, I plan to take them to the Star Welfare Home to see if there are any staff members who have taken the children. ”
They are now ready to go out.
This result was expected, Song Yu nodded and said, "I'll go over with you." ”
The two policemen glanced at each other, probably thinking that Song Yu was for the news, and said euphemistically: "It's best not to report this matter at the moment." We still haven't figured out what's going on. ”
Song Yu nodded and said, "I know." ”
After all, she was the one who reported the case first, and she didn't report that the two policemen didn't say much, and acquiesced in her going with her.
But things didn't go as smoothly as they imagined, and they went to the old lady's house, but the old couple didn't admit to lying. The two people who came to the door did say that they were from the Star Welfare Institute.
At this time, the two of them were taken to the Star Welfare Institute to identify the staff inside. But as expected, there were no of those two staff members.
And they live in an old community, even if they want to adjust the monitoring, there is no monitoring adjustable. I asked the security guard of the community, but the gate in this old community is always open, and there is not even a curfew, where do the security guards pay so much attention.
However, some neighbors who passed by said that they seemed to have seen so many people, but they didn't pay attention at that time, let alone whether the clothes they were wearing were from the welfare home.
All the clues seem to be broken here, and the police will bring the old couple back to the station, and will find experts to draw the faces of the two suspects.
Now the only hope can only be pinned on the portrait.
The child's whereabouts are unknown now, and he doesn't even know if he is still in Qinghe City. Even if the portrait is drawn and posted, it may not be able to find anyone. You can't do nothing.
Song Yu then proposed to register a missing person notice in the newspaper and go out.
This matter had to be consulted by the superiors, and the two policemen quickly reported the matter. I don't know if I want to make a good impression in advance, but I soon got a reply and let the missing person notice be posted. Maybe someone has seen a child.
This matter was handed over to Song Yu to deal with, and she quickly returned to the company and posted a missing person notice.
It's already off-duty time when she's done with all this, and she sighs, hoping that someone will provide a clue tomorrow.
She was exhausted after running this day, and she didn't pack up her things to get off work immediately, and went to the pantry to make a cup of coffee to refresh herself.
The coffee was brewed and returned to the position, and when I was far away, I saw the mobile phone vibrating on the desk. She walked over quickly and picked up her phone.
The call was from her uncle, who took a look at it, put the coffee on the table, picked up the phone, and called the uncle.
Song Zhiqin smiled on the other side of the phone, and asked, "Ah Yu, are you off work now?"
Song Yu thought there was something wrong, but now he was relieved to see a smile in his voice, and said, "Get off work immediately." What's wrong, uncle?"
Song Zhiqin said: "I have a classmate's child who just came here to work, your cousin has been on a business trip for the past few days, and your aunt and I are in the countryside again, can you entertain me for me?"
Song Yu couldn't help but be stunned at this moment, and Song Zhiqin on the other end of the phone continued: "His father only called me today, and your aunt and I will not come back in a few days." ”
Since people are here to work, they are not in a hurry to leave, and they can also be entertained when they come back. Although Song Yu's heart was doubtful, he still responded.
Song Zhiqin then gave her the other party's phone number and told her the agreed place. said that the appointment time was at seven o'clock, and she still had time to go over.
Song Yu originally planned to rest for a while before leaving, but now he had to hurriedly pack up his things and rush to the restaurant.
Although she took a taxi, there was a traffic jam on the road, and it was already seven o'clock when she arrived at the ground. Her uncle booked a private room in the restaurant, and she asked a waiter to take her there.
Pushing open the door of the private room, the person sitting inside turned around. She originally thought that the person she was entertaining was a girl, but now she saw that it was a young man and couldn't help but be stunned.
The other party was polite, and when he saw her standing at the door, he stood up, smiled and said, "It's Miss Song, right?"
Song Yu entered the wrong door for a moment, and now when she saw that the other party knew her, she had to walk in and said, "Sorry, it's too late for the traffic jam on the road." ”
The other party was very gentle, smiled and said, "It's okay. ”
He was a very gentleman, and Song Yu pulled out a chair for her after he passed.
Eating with a stranger, Song was awkward and said thank you uncomfortably.
After answering the phone, she hurried over, and then remembered that her uncle didn't tell her what the other party's name was.
This was a little embarrassing, but fortunately, the other party seemed to know what she was thinking, and introduced herself with a smile: "My name is Wei Zijun." My father and Uncle Song have been friends for many years. ”
As he spoke, he pushed over the menu and said to Song Yu, "You must be hungry when you come over after work, right?" ”
Song felt that something was wrong, and only then did she realize that this was a blind date arranged by her uncle. She secretly smiled bitterly in her heart, no wonder her uncle would say that they were not there. Probably because she was afraid to tell her that it was a blind date, she refused to come. But since he came, he had to eat this meal.
Wei Zijun didn't hate it, and after ordering the food and waiter, he asked with a smile, "Didn't Uncle Song tell you that it was a blind date?"
He's pretty direct.
Song Yu didn't hide it from him, and said with a wry smile: "He told me that you are the son of his old classmate." Please let me entertain you. ”
Wei Zijun laughed when he heard this, showed a mouthful of white teeth, and said, "Uncle Song and my father are indeed old classmates. ”
He looked like a big one, so Song relaxed a little and smiled. He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. After a little hesitation, she still said, "My uncle shouldn't have told you about me, I was married, and now ...... in separation. I have no intention of coming ......."
She tried to explain clearly, but before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Wei Zijun. He smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Song has said everything." After a slight pause, he shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Don't take the blind date to heart, I just came here, so let's make friends." ”
People may also be hindered by the elders' face is not easy to shirk, Song Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and a smile appeared on his face.
Wei Zijun was very talkative, and then he didn't talk about this topic anymore, and asked about the tourist attractions in Song Yu Qinghe City. and said that Song Yu would have time to take him out for a walk and be more familiar with the city. He's been transferred here and will be here for a few years.
Song Yu responded well.
Probably to make Song Yu relax, he asked Song Mianlai again. Let me call him for dinner next time I have time. He and Song Mian had met once a few years ago.
It should have been embarrassing, but the atmosphere became relaxed because I only picked some relaxed topics. He knew each other well, and the two didn't look like they had met for the first time.
The waiter quickly brought the meal up, and he commented as he ate. and compared it with the taste of his side, and asked Song Yu what specialties he had here, and he planned to buy some and send them back to his family.
Song Yu answered one by one.
This meal was quite relaxed, and after eating, Wei Zijun did not propose to walk together or watch a movie, which made Song Yu breathe a sigh of relief.
Song Yu originally wanted to pay, but Wei Zijun paid first. He grinned and said, "I've been here for a long time, I'll be up to you next time." ”
Song Yu was a little helpless, so he had to let him.
The two went out of the restaurant together, Song Yu looked at the time, and just wanted to ask Wei Zijun where he lived, Wei Zijun looked at the time and said, "It's still early, let's have a cup of coffee together? It's boring to go back to the hotel." ”
He doesn't have any friends here, and he's still a stranger to his colleagues, so he's naturally bored.
It's not even nine o'clock now, so Song Yu nodded and said yes.
There was a café on the side, and the two walked in, Song Yu inadvertently raised his head, and saw Tang Xu sitting on the side. Across from him was a middle-aged man, as if he was talking about business.
Where did she think that she would meet Tang Xu here, she couldn't help but be stunned. It was no longer appropriate to withdraw at this point, so she had to stand hard.
She saw Tang Xu Tang Xu also saw her, but he just glanced over here, then withdrew his gaze and continued to talk with the man opposite.
Wei Zijun didn't notice Song Yu's abnormality, and after ordering coffee, he walked aside, and then pulled out a chair for Song Yu.
Song Yurumang was on his back and whispered thank you.
He is still talkative, but because Tang Xu is there, Song is very awkward. Most of the time, it's just a perfunctory nod.
She was going to leave as soon as she finished her coffee, but before the coffee was finished, Tang Xu over there had already finished talking. The middle-aged man left first, and he continued to sit and drink a few sips of coffee before standing up.
Song Yuben thought he was leaving, but he didn't. He slipped one hand in his trouser pocket and walked over to him.
Song Yu's body stiffened.
Tang Xu quickly walked over, raised his eyebrows, glanced at Song Yu, and said with a smile: "It's quite a coincidence, who is this?"
He stopped and waited for Song Yu to introduce him.
Although he asked who Wei Zijun was, he didn't look at him. His gaze stayed on Song Yu's body.
He clearly did this on purpose.
Song Yu pursed his lips, and just as he was about to speak, Wei Zijun stood up and said with a smile: "Hello, I'm Wei Zijun." You're Song Yu's friend, aren't you? ”
I have to say that Wei Zijun is really lacking in heart. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to shake hands with Tang Xu.
Tang Xu didn't mean to shake hands with him, and still looked at Song Yu with a smile. After a long interval of like a century, he stretched out his hand and shook Wei Zijun and said, "Hello." After a slight pause, he said slowly, "No, I still have something." ”
Hearing him say that, Song breathed a sigh of relief. I thought that Tang Xu was going to leave soon, but he didn't. The corners of his lips hooked, and the two of them chatted slowly, and then left.
Song Yu's nerves had been tense just now, and now he sighed softly when he saw him leave.
Wei Zijun didn't notice that there was something wrong between her and Tang Xu, and asked, "That was your friend just now?"
Song Yu didn't know how to answer, but sighed.
She didn't have the heart to sit down any longer, so she sat for a while and waited for Tang Xu to walk away, then looked at the time and said, "It's not early, I'll send you back to the hotel." ”
Wei Zijun smiled and waved his hand, and said, "No, although I just came here, I can't find my way back." I'll just go back myself. I'm living around here, so let's go first, and I'll sit back and go back by myself. ”
