I believe that I am everyone's son, and I have no scruples to pursue her, but she did not completely refuse, and taught me in private that youth is a good time to study, not to fall into the private affairs of children, and to wait until I am successful in my studies and have the ability to serve the country and the nation, and then it is not too late to talk about the love between men and women. I made a pact with her that we would study hard and wait until we entered the same university in the future to confirm our relationship.

Later, when the Anti-Japanese War broke out and the war gradually spread to Qingyang, my grandfather made the decision to move his family to Malaysia and join his second grandfather, who had been doing business there for a long time. On the night of parting, I approached the girl and asked her to leave the war-torn country with me, but she refused. At the last moment, I took her into my arms and told her that she would definitely come back to her in the future, and she gave me the silver bracelet she was wearing as a souvenir......"

When the old man said this, his breath became very weak, his voice trembled, his expression was depressed and full of remorse, his lips pursed, but he could not speak any more.

But without him finishing, Li Rui had already guessed the result: after Huang Lao moved to Malaysia with his family, he was never able to return to the motherland for various reasons, and the love for the girl in his heart never diminished slightly, and it became deeper and deeper day and night, until this time, he finally set foot on the land of the motherland, and as soon as he returned to Qingyang, he came to look for the girl, but he could no longer find her...... Thinking of the war-torn era, two people who fell in love were forced to separate, and since then they have been separated by oceans, and it is rare to see each other for the rest of their lives, and they are also sad and nostalgic in their hearts.

Li Rui thought of this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted: "I understand, your current heart disease is because you can't find that girl anymore, right?"

Huang Xinghua's old eyes were already moist, he sighed, gathered his strength for a while, and then said: "Yes, I promised to come back to her, but the difference is more than seventy years, and when I finally returned to the motherland and came to Qingyang to find her for the first time, it was already ...... Already...... I can't find it. She...... She may have died in the war years, or she may have married in a foreign country, or she may have married in Qingyang and spent the war years safely, but she could not wait for me to come back to her, in short, she is no longer there......"

When the old man said this, the tears could no longer be held back and rolled out. His bodyguard was quick-eyed, brought tissues, and gently wiped his tears for him.

Li Rui was also full of sadness, his nose involuntarily sour, and he comforted: "Old Huang, don't be sad first, things may not be as you imagined, maybe there will be a turnaround, that girl may still be alive in the world, waiting for you to come back to her." Otherwise, I'll help you find it, you tell me her name and place of origin, and I'll help you look it up. As a local official, I still have a lot of shortcuts and conveniences in this regard, at least compared to you, I will have a lot more channels. Okay, okay?"

Huang Xinghua shook his head sadly and said, "You don't have to comfort me, I know that the probability that she is still alive will not exceed one in ten." I felt guilty and sad because of this, and I hated that I could go with her, at least when I died, I could see her again. The story I just told is actually saying that when people are satisfied with their desires, they can ignore death and not be afraid of death, and if they know that they can get what they want after death, they will gladly die. I'm in this state of mind now, in fact, I'm not afraid of death at all......"

Li Rui was extremely sad, his eyes were red, he held his hand and said, "Old Huang, if you trust me, tell me the details of that girl, I will help you investigate today, and I will definitely give you a result of the investigation as soon as possible." If it turns out that she has died, then if you think so, I have nothing to say, otherwise you will be ruining your body, you are already so old, and your body and bones can't withstand the abuse!"

Huang Xinghua hesitated, didn't speak, burst into tears in the middle of the sound, and said: "I'm really scared, the final result is that she has passed away, even if I have basically confirmed this." ”

Li Rui smiled bitterly: "I said something unpleasant, Huang Lao, you are not afraid of death now, you are ready to go down to find that girl, why are you afraid to accept such a result? You should be completely let go now, there is no result to shake your state of mind, you only need a consummation of the knot now, no matter whether the result is good or bad." ”

Huang Xinghua's eyes were blurred with tears, and he slowly bowed his head, and said, "Okay, then I'll ask you Xiaoyou, you can help me check it out." Her name is Su Yun, her home is the first one in Xiguan Dahuaishu Hutong, her father's name is Su Dingwen, and she also has a younger brother named Su Tian, but now Qingyang has no Xiguan Dongguan, I'm afraid ......"

Li Rui patted his hand and said, "Don't worry about it first, let me go and check, you can recuperate here and wait for my news, okay?"

Huang Xinghua nodded and said, "Then it's troublesome for Xiaoyou." ”

Li Rui got up and said, "Then I'll leave first, and I'll come to see you when I have time or news." After saying that, he smiled at him and turned to leave the house.

After Huang Xinghua saw him leave, another hand placed in the quilt was taken out, holding a silver bracelet that had been whitened by crystal light and engraved with classical patterns......

After meeting the boss Song Chaoyang, Li Rui told Huang Xinghua's heart knot.

Song Chaoyang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I said why is Huang Lao so sick, dare to be trapped by love, and go to death wholeheartedly, now find the root of the disease, and it will not be difficult to cure him again." Li Rui smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid it's still not easy, if you want to untie the knot in his heart, you have to find the whereabouts of that Su Yun, but if you want to find Su Yun, you have to involve the household registration information in the thirties and forties of the last century, but where can you find it?"

Song Chaoyang waved his hand and said, "No matter how troublesome it is, no matter how difficult it is, we must help Huang Lao achieve this wish." It just so happens that I haven't been busy in the past two days, and there is nothing important, so you don't have to stay with me, and devote yourself to the special work of searching for people, and you must find the whereabouts of this Su Yun. To put it mildly, you have to see people in life, and you have to see the grave in death. In the process of searching, if it is necessary to seek help from the relevant units and departments, then greet the other party in the name of the municipal party committee or me, and ask the other party to complete it as the most important political task at present, and absolutely not be perfunctory and slack. ”

Li Rui frowned and pondered for a while, nodded slowly, and said, "Okay, I know, then I will start to be busy when I get to the municipal party committee." ”

It's very simple to say it, the upper lip touches the lower lip, but it's not that simple to do it. After Li Rui rushed to the municipal party committee and sat in the office, he found that things were a little difficult to do, and he didn't know where the breakthrough in this search task was. It stands to reason that one should go to the household registration office of the Municipal Public Security Bureau to find out the household registration file, but the Municipal Public Security Bureau may not even have the household registration file of Qingyang during the decades after the founding of the People's Republic of China, so how can we talk about the household registration file before the founding of the People's Republic of China? However, this is not certain, and we have to contact the Municipal Bureau to find out.

"Well, first contact the Municipal Public Security Bureau, start with the household registration file, if this road doesn't work, then try to start from the location of Su Yun's house, Xiguan Dahuaishu Hutong. Although there is no big locust tree alley now, the history of the alley demolition is not too long, it is only a matter of the eighties and nineties of the last century, and relevant clues should be found from the local street office, such as finding the people who once lived in the big locust tree alley, and then asking them about Su Yun's family, it should be about the same. ”

Li Rui took out his mobile phone and called his old friend Shen Yuanzhu, deputy director of the Office of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and said after answering: "If you want your help, you can help me go to the household registration office to ask if I can find out the household registration information of the residents of our city in the thirties and forties of the last century." Shen Yuanzhu was stupid when he heard this, and he didn't speak for a long time, and it took a long time before he said: "In the thirties and forties of the last century? Do you mean the period from 1930 to 1940? Before the founding of the People's Republic of China?" Li Rui said: "Yes, this is this time, can you find out?" Shen Yuanzhu smiled bitterly: "You're not joking, are you?"

Li Rui said in a very serious tone: "When did you see me calling you and joking?" Shen Yuanzhu knew that he was telling the truth, and said busily: "I can't find it at all, don't even think about it! Although I am not from the household registration side, I also have some understanding of the household registration system, and our current household registration management network system was deployed by the Ministry of Public Security around 97 years, and before 97 years, we did not have a few computers in the whole of China, including the earlier era, and all household registration information was recorded by pen and hand. Think about it, from 1930 to the present, how many major events have been experienced, such as the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Civil War, the founding of the People's Republic of China, the three-year natural disaster, the Cultural Revolution, the reform and opening up, and the upgrading of the household registration system many times...... Do you think that the handwritten paper files can be preserved intact?"

Li Rui only listened to it once and wilted, and he couldn't raise any interest anymore, as if his life had sunk into boundless darkness, yes, if even the powerful Public Security Bureau was helpless, what could he do?

Shen Yuanzhu said excitedly: "Moreover, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, China's household registration file management system is very lax, many times, only the local police station retains the household registration file of the local population, but the Municipal Public Security Bureau does not have a single file paper. Li Rui's heart moved when he heard this, and said: "Doesn't that mean that if you go to the local police station, it is possible to find someone's old household registration?" Shen Yuanzhu said: "Of course not, first of all, we must ensure that the police station where that person's household registration is located has been preserved since it was established; secondly, we must ensure that the police station has stored that person's household registration file; and finally, we must ensure that the police station has never destroyed any old files." And as far as I know, the probability of being able to meet these three conditions at the same time is no less than winning five million in a lottery ticket!"

Li Rui couldn't help it, and scolded lightly.
