Chapter Seventy-Four: Between Life and Death
It was dawn, Ying Qingcang and Shen Gongzi didn't sleep all night, Chen Ming was already gone, and Lu Manman's future generations needed him to deal with.
"Young master, you can eat something and rest!" Ah Che came in from outside, followed by Lele. Yesterday he drove a car and took Lele to look for a day on the street, at first Lele could still smell Xin Qing, but then the distance was too far, and Lele's sense of smell was useless. Seeing that Ying Qingcang ignored him, Ah Che's eyes flashed, and he knelt down.
"It's all my fault that I didn't protect Miss. "Ah Che is very guilty, if he follows Xin Qing step by step, Xin Qing will not be kidnapped.
Shen Gongzi rubbed his brows and helped him up: "Okay, it's not your fault." Ah Che pursed his lips and looked at Ying Qingcang, who waved his hand at him and said two words: "Get up." Ache cried out, "I will definitely get the little lady back." With that, he rushed out.
"Wait for him to come back and let him rest. "Ying Qingcang said this to Anan, Ah Che must have not slept at night and been looking for it on the street, Xin Qing was kidnapped, it was not his fault.
A whole day passed, the police had no clue, Shen Gongzi had no clues, and the night came again, Shen Gongzi didn't dare to leave Ying Qingcang for a single step, for fear that he would collapse and do something. As a result, Ying Qingcang walked into the lounge inside and dropped the sentence: "Sleep." ”
Anan looked at Shen Gongzi and asked in a low voice, "What should I do?"
"Sleep!" Shen Gongzi yawned, and finally he took the initiative to propose, "You also go to rest, you haven't closed your eyes for a day and a night, in case you ......" Shen Gongzi didn't say anything, if Xin Qing can't be found after three days, then I'm afraid it will be more than lucky.
Xin Qing cried, she didn't wait for Lu Manman to come and let her go, seeing that it was getting dark again, she began to be afraid, will no one come all the time? Why hasn't Ying Qingcang found her yet? She has already cut the rope, fortunately the weather in September is still very hot, she collected all the rags and sat on it and leaned against the wall. Her stomach was empty and she was hungry, but the food was already a little rancid, and she couldn't eat it. Of the bottles of water left by Lu Manman, there was only half a bottle left.
Xin Qing looked at the high roof, maybe Lu Manman would come and release her tomorrow, and she would be able to go home tomorrow and see Ying Qingcang......
It was dawn, the third day of Xin Qing's abduction.
Ying Qingcang ate the breakfast that Anan bought early in the morning, and said calmly to Shen Gongzi: "I'll go to the north to find it, and you go to the south." Anan, you stay, the police have news to notify us as soon as possible. Also, call Ah Che back and let him sleep. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Che rushed in: "Young master, there is a clue." Someone saw Lu Manman once drop his car and get into another car with a man carrying a sack. Yingqing's eyes lit up, this was the first time he had seen hope in two days.
"Where did you go after that?"
"I just know that the car is on the West Ring Road. The police on the side hurriedly took out the map, and everyone gathered around to find the road.
A young policeman pointed to the map and said, "There is only one exit to this highway, which is the abandoned industrial area in Xicheng, so it seems that we can lock the search area on this area." ”
"There are a lot of ......," Anan showed everyone the computer data, "There are more than 3,000 abandoned factories in this industrial area, large and small, and we have no way of determining where people are being held." ”
Ying Qingcang stood up: "Look for them one by one, four directions, your police are in charge of the west, Shen Gongzi, you have a lot of people, you are in charge of the south and the north, and I will go to the east." ”
"Young Master, I'll go with you. Ah Che rubbed his eyes.
Ying Qingcang glanced at him: "You go to rest." ”
"Young master, I'm not sleepy, I want to ......"
"Go and rest. Ying Qingcang gave him a deep look, "So that we can take turns looking for it." ”
Ah Che understood, nodded and closed his eyes on the sofa.
"Anan, you go and contact and post a search notice in all the media, who can provide a clue bonus of 100,000, and if you can find someone, 1 million. At this time, Ying Qingcang hopes that the more people pay attention to Xin Qing, the better, so that the chance of her being found will be greater.
Xin Qing was woken up by hunger, she looked overhead and found that the sun was shining there, according to yesterday's experience, it should have been noon. She stood up against the wall, she couldn't sit still, she had to find a way to escape, or she would die of thirst, if not starvation.
The whole factory is a tin house, Xin Qing walked around the wall, except for the rust stains, there are some disgusting traces of paint. It was not a big place, but she walked for a long time, and she was sweating, panting and sitting down against the wall. Xin Qing looked at the cage-like house, she knew that no one would come and let her go, and it would be easy for Ying Qingcang to find her. I will probably die here, Xin Qing suddenly had such a thought, and then felt sad, shaking her head and muttering to herself.
"I don't want to die, I don't want to win, I haven't realized my ideals, I don't want to die. Xin Qing hugged her legs, buried her head in it, sobbed quietly, and slowly lay down and fell asleep again.
Ying Qingcang took Lele to start looking for factories one by one, some of which were very large, with several floors. Ying Qingcang is not worried about Lele's ability, he must search for it himself, Lele has not called once along the way. When night fell, Ah Che and Ah Nan brought food over, Ying Qingcang ate and lay down in the car to sleep, and the two of them went to look for it again.
On the fourth day, Xin Qing was already dizzy from hunger, and she had no strength at all, she looked at the already sour food in the lunch box, grabbed it in her hand and slowly sent it to her mouth, but she was smoked and retched. "Win the sky...... Why haven't you come yet......" Xin Qing tore open her chapped mouth and wanted to cry, but she couldn't even shed tears. Looking at the bottoming water in the bottle, I licked my lips and endured it.
As soon as the morning dawned, Ying Qingcang was ready to continue to set off, Ah Che rested in the car, and Ah Nan went back to deal with the company's affairs. Just when Ying Qingcang was about to take Lele away, Shi Qianqian and Zhang Mi came, and also brought people sent by Ding Lei to help.
Zhang Mi was also knocked unconscious that day, and stayed in the hospital for two days, crying and shouting when she heard that Xin Qing hadn't been found yet. Ying Qingcang didn't have anything to say, just asked the two of them to take someone and start looking for it from the other end. Another whole day passed, and they still didn't find Xin Qing, they counted about half of the factories they had just found, and half of them hadn't been found. But tomorrow will be the fifth day, and Shen Gongzi was secretly called over by Ah Che at night, Ying Qingcang didn't speak, just looking for someone every day, they were afraid that there was something wrong with him, if he really couldn't find Xin Qing, would the young master go crazy.
"Are you okay!" Shen Gongzi saw Ying Qingcang stuffing rice into his mouth, and swallowed it without chewing at all, he just went to Xin Qing to eat to keep his body. In the past two days, he has stopped talking to others, and the whole person looks calm, but Shen Gongzi knows very well that he is desperately suppressing, and once it breaks out, it is estimated that he will not be able to stand it.
Xin Qing woke up again and found that it was already dark, and she was crawling on the ground, no longer having the strength to sit up. Stretched out her dusty hand to pick up the search rice in the lunch box and put it into her mouth tremblingly, one bite, two bites, she stuffed the rest of the rice into her mouth. Because she hadn't drunk water for a long time, her throat had long been broken, so she tried hard to swallow her food little by little, and then poured the only remaining mouthful of water into her mouth.
On the sixth day, the police sent someone to find Ying Qingcang and asked him if he wanted to continue looking, and asked Shen Gongzi to call back directly. Ah Che was even more about to collapse, he felt that he was not reporting the wrong information, if Xin Qing was not here at all, then what was the point of what they had done in the past few days, everyone was on the verge of collapse, only Ying Qingcang was still silent, and he still took Lele to find it in the morning. At night, Shi Qianqian took Zhang Mi to leave people behind, and they went back first, because Zhang Mi couldn't stand it and kept crying.
On the seventh day, everyone was going to give up, Shen Gongzi didn't know how to persuade Ying Qingcang, even if he found it, I am afraid that people would not live. Ying Qingcang ignored them, and took Lele to continue to search for yesterday's place. Lele has been following him quietly for the past few days, and when he sleeps at night, he shrinks at his feet. Suddenly, Lele yelled at a dirt bag. Ying Qingcang's eyes moved, and he staggered over, and found a pink bead in the soil.
This is Xin Qing's hairpin! Ying Qingcang felt that his heart was finally beating again, Xin Qing must be around here.
"Lele, come on, find your master, she is here. Ying Qingcang put the bead in front of Lele's nose, Lele sniffed it vigorously, then turned around several times in the vicinity, and finally shouted a few times in one direction, and ran away.
Xin Qing wanted to open her eyes, but she couldn't. The hand moved slowly on the ground and touched the empty mineral water bottle. There were still water droplets in it, and Xin Qing wanted to pick it up and drink it, but she didn't have any strength at all.
I don't know if it's the first few days, Xin Qing thought to herself, and her mind began to recall her happy and unhappy things. She thought of her dead mother, and wondered if Ying Qingcang would bury her with her mother. She thought that there was still a half-drawn design in the drawer, which was her birthday present to Ying Qingcang. And Asha...... In the future, Ying Qingcang will find her a new mother! The hand finally touched the bottle, Xin Qing put all her strength in her hand, picked up the bottle and poured it into her mouth, one drop, two drops, a few drops into her mouth, she stretched out her tongue and licked her lips.
The bottle fell to the ground with her hand, and Xin Qing looked at the window above her head, this should be the last time she saw the blue sky. I am so unwilling to die like this, my current appearance must be so ugly.
She thought about it, and the corners of her mouth moved, Ying Qingcang, you must find me! Don't let me rot here after I die, it will be too miserable. Xin Qing felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, but her body was getting lighter and lighter, she felt very comfortable, and she wanted to sleep like this. Suddenly, she seemed to hear the sound of a dog barking and a huge slamming of the door, Xin Qing felt so noisy that she finally fell asleep.
When she finally fell into darkness, she seemed to see Ying Qingcang's face......
