Chapter 463: Mom
Lin Zhaoheng's grandson is called Lin Zishu, nine years old this year, and has been personally raised by Lin Zhaoheng, it is said that he has shown an amazing talent in numbers at a young age, and has begun to audit the board of directors of Zhaoheng Group.
Although he is the second heir of Zhaoheng Group in law, industry insiders know that Lin Zhaoheng's son Lin Jiahao is obsessed with science, has his own biological laboratory in the UK, and has no interest in managing the family business, and Lin Zishu is actually the next heir of Zhaoheng Group.
With such an important identity, his sudden disappearance will inevitably lead to some other speculation.
"When you get over there, you obediently follow Xiao Er, I will let Xiao Shan accompany you, and you must put your own safety first when everything happens, and the sky will not fall if you can't find the child." Shen Guodong held Zhou Wanwan's hand and told him carefully, afraid that she would do something impulsive for him.
Zhou Wanwan knew that he was thinking of the last time Zhou Chen disappeared and exposed the space by himself. No matter how important Lin Zishu is, in Zhou Wanwan's heart, he is less than one ten-thousandth of Zhou Chen's, of course he will not take risks for him.
"I know, Brother Shen, don't worry!" Zhou Wanwan happily agreed to Shen Guodong.
Under the pretext of arriving at the central street, several groups of PLA soldiers strictly guarded the street entrance, and pedestrians were only allowed to exit but not enter, and those who came out had to undergo strict identity checks and body searches.
Several captains waiting for interrogation crowded one after another on the side of the road, and more PLA soldiers patrolled in the middle of the ranks to maintain order and prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos to make trouble.
From time to time, military trucks carrying truckloads of PLA soldiers come by, or stop to unload groups of soldiers to join the ranks of maintaining law and order. Or go straight inside and take part in the search.
When the car arrived at the street corner, PLA soldiers with loaded guns and ammunition came to investigate. Seeing Uncle Zhang's military uniform and documents, he carefully checked the identities of Zhou Wanwan and Shen Guodong before he was released.
Shen Guodong was just about to ask people to wait for Zhou Chen here, but Zhou Chen had already come at a gallop on his bicycle.
There was no superfluous word when he got into the car, Shen Guodong hurried to introduce the situation to him, "Lin Zhaoheng's grandson is lost, and I will take Xiao Wang to find someone later, and you will follow them." I will send someone to protect you, and I will protect yourself. β
Zhou Chen and Zhou Wanwan glanced at each other, nodded and did not speak.
This kind of time. Everyone doesn't know the situation, so let's wait until we get to the scene.
Their car was parked in front of the First Department Store, which had already been cleared, and a few chairs were left alone in the empty hall. Except for Lin Zhaoheng. and the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, everyone is standing.
The first thing I saw when I entered the door was not the two people sitting, but a young woman in her twenties frantically beating a Filipino maid with thick skin and stubby limbs. The Filipino maid looked like she was already fifty or sixty years old, her hair was disheveled, her clothes were torn and messy, she was screaming something in English, and she fought back from time to time, but she had some scruples when she saw it. Or completely at a disadvantage.
The woman who beat the Filipino maid spoke completely Chinese, and she also had a strong northeastern accent. "Where's the kid!? Where did you see my eldest nephew! You fat man! Just know that there is a grunt and a squeeze of people! If my eldest nephew can't find it, I'll tear you up! β
They must have been fighting for a long time, and the young woman's hair was messy, and her face was hideous, panting, and she stopped to gasp for air after kicking and beating, and then pounced and continued to fight. It's very strange that no one is going to stop her.
Lin Zhaoheng should be in his sixties, but he looks only about fifty years old, with black hair and sharp eyes, sitting on a chair without saying a word, and a tall man in a black suit standing behind him, staring at everyone present with vigilant eyes, should be Lin Zhaoheng's bodyguard.
Director Zhang of the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office was bending over and talking anxiously to Lin Zhaoheng. On Lin Zhaoheng's side, there was a family of three who were obviously his son and daughter-in-law.
Lin Zhaoheng's son, Lin Jiahao, is about forty years old, wearing a turtleneck sweater and cashmere coat, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and an intellectual elegance and elegance, who is looking anxiously at his father at this time.
Daughter-in-law Su Yue permed her elegant short hair, also wore eyes, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief from time to time, but she couldn't bear to cry out loud.
Behind them, a brown-haired foreign woman was holding a little Chinese girl, who was supposed to be Lin Zhaoheng's three-year-old granddaughter, Lin Ziyu, who was already asleep at this time.
Seeing Shen Guodong and his entourage coming in, the director of the Foreign Affairs Office immediately greeted him, "Director Shen! Look at what to do! This, who would have thought ......"
Shen Guodong waved his hand to interrupt him, nodded at the vice governor and other accompanying personnel, and urged Director Zhang, "Introduce the situation first, where did the child find that he was missing?" How long has it been? Where have you found them? Have all the people who watched the children checked? Did you notice anything out of the ordinary? β
"Go and tell Director Shen about the situation again." Lin Zhaoheng waved his hand and asked the bodyguards around him to step forward.
The bodyguard came over and explained the situation very succinctly in the most stilted Chinese, "The report of the child's disappearance was an hour and 20 minutes ago, and I hadn't seen the child for an hour at that time. I guess I got lost while looking at the ice lantern. With the child are Miss Lin, nanny Tracey and a bodyguard, and two people from your side, the bodyguard and the child have not been found yet. Tell us about the search. β
Director Zhang had already said on the phone that Lin Zhaoheng was listening to folklorists talk about the Lantern Festival allusions accompanied by several leaders in charge of reception in the province, and Lin Jiahao's family slowly distanced themselves from them.
Lin Zishu also had his aunt Mary Lin by his side, and one night the group of them were far away from the large army and hung far behind, until the child disappeared, everyone knew the situation at that time.
Lin Zishu was going to play on the ice slide, and he had played many times, the bodyguards sent him up, and the nanny and Lin Mary followed him below, and the security personnel here also followed in two groups, but there was an accident when he thought it was foolproof.
Lin Zishu's bodyguards sent one of the two security guards who followed them to buy sugar gourds and the other to buy lanterns. Of course, they split apart without their knowledge.
When they came back, the nanny and Mary Lin might have found out that Lin Zishu was missing, of course. They said no, they said that Lin Zishu and his bodyguards went to the Great Wall of Ice.
This was more than 40 minutes, and when the security personnel found that the person might be missing, they went to the Great Wall of Ice to look for more than 10 minutes.
The child lost it for an hour before he found out.
Director Zhang hurriedly stepped forward, "The comrades of the Public Security Bureau and the army have already conducted a carpet search in Jiefang Park, where they are watching the ice lanterns, and all the places they have walked all the way, Secretary Zhao of the Provincial Party Committee, and Governor Wang. Vice Governor Ma and Vice Governor Han attach great importance to this matter......"
"Let Xiao Shan come over and bring another team of soldiers!" Shen Guodong interrupted Director Zhang's rambling news-release style official talk in a deep voice. "Let Liu Xiaoguang from the Criminal Police Team of the Public Security Bureau come over, and Miss Lin and the nanny will go and tell her about the situation at that time."
Miss Lin, who has been beating the nanny, that is, Lin Zhaoheng's niece Lin Mary, heard Shen Guodong's words, and just beat the nanny violently, and she was still panting on her knees as if she was out of strength. Immediately slumped on the ground. patted his thighs and cried, "Uncle! What's going on! I worked hard to watch the child, and if the child was lost, I couldn't wait to exchange my life for him! Why do you want to interrogate me in the end?!
Oh my God! Open your eyes and see! You're gone, I can't live! Why didn't I go with you then! β
Except for Shen Guodong and a few people present, the others were not too shocked, it seems that it is definitely not the first time that Lin Marie has sprinkled like this.
"That's it! Don't cry! Lin Zhaoheng frowned and shouted, Lin Marie immediately stopped crying, and stood up aggrieved. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she raised her hand and gave the Filipino maid Tracey a slap. A new round of fighting began.
It is likely that after the child is lost, this cycle has been repeated several times.
Shen Guodong took a deep breath, now he can only look for the child first, "Mr. Lin, my fiancΓ©e's dog is very good at finding people, and he has had the experience of making great contributions several times before, please ask the people around you to take out one of the things that the child used before and give it a smell." β
Then he called Zhou Wanwan and Zhou Chen to Lin Zhaoheng and gave them a brief introduction, no one was in the mood to greet politely at this time, and Zhou Wanwan didn't turn around when he spoke, "Mr. Lin, one more person to find is one more possibility, please let us do our part." There are a lot of firecrackers and fireworks today, and the longer the time passes, the faster the smell of the children will dissipate, so we'd better start right away. β
"So the old people didn't take care of the children, so you just found a dog to fool us?!" Before Lin Zhaoheng could make a statement, Lin Marie, who was beating the nanny, had eyes behind her, and threw down the nanny and rushed to Zhou Wanwan and a few people came, "Didn't a few dogs come just now, and they heard about us!" also took away one of Zishu's clothes, it's not like there hasn't been a letter for so long! β
Mary Lin has the urge to slap the government officials here a few times in the face of the nanny, but after all, she has some scruples, and now she sees Zhou Wanwan, who does not have any official title in front of her name when she is introduced, and looks very weak, and finally has a channel to vent.
"What kind of green onion are you! Don't look at what kind of place this is, what kind of mess is running here! Get out of here! If you delay looking for our family, can you compensate?! β
"Dad, the mainland's dog training technology is not mature, their professional military dogs are useless, and dogs that have not undergone professional training ......" Lin Jiahao pushed his glasses and didn't continue the following words, obviously distrusting Zhou Wanwan, "I'm afraid that it will cause unexpected consequences when the time comes, we can't experiment with Zishu's safety." β
"Mr. Lin, I just want to do my part." Zhou Wanwan held Shen Guodong's hand tightly to stop him from speaking, "I promise not to cause any obstacles to the search and rescue work, not to destroy any evidence, and to report to the military police of the search and rescue as soon as I find out about the situation, and not to make any decisions myself." β
Lin Zhaoheng took a deep look at the beautiful and thin little girl in front of him, and beckoned to the bodyguard behind him, "Go get a comfortable dress." β
"Uncle! The eldest brother and sister-in-law disagree, you can't take Zishu's safety at risk! Lin Marie almost yelled at Lin Zhaoheng hoarsely.
Lin Zhaoheng waved his hand at the bodyguard again, the bodyguard raised his foot and walked out, Lin Marie couldn't be persuaded anymore, and immediately ran out first, "I'll go!" What do they know? Zishu's clothes are all in the car following us, he knows where to look?! What kind of thing about Zishu can't be handled by me!? β
"Dad, I'll go too." Su Yue, who had been crying and didn't speak, spoke up. After Lin Zhaoheng nodded, he quickly followed.
Lin Zishu's coat was quickly taken over. Xiao Wang sniffed it, Zhou Wanwan made a few gestures at it, and quickly wiped it on his coat with the test strip in his hand. Get the space to do the test.
Before the test results came out, Xiao Wang pounced directly on Su Yue, quietly but extremely fierce. Su Yue screamed in fright, and was thrown to the ground by it.
Mary Lin also shouted and rushed at Xiao Wang, "Go away!" This dog is crazy, isn't he?! Why are you not looking for Zishu to pounce on my sister-in-law!? Uncle! My eldest brother said he couldn't believe this wild dog, and you still didn't believe it! Check it out! It's revealing before you even go out! β
Lin Jiahao and the bodyguards also rushed at Xiao Wang, and Zhou Wanwan hurriedly made a gesture to it. Xiao Wang got the order, so he let go of Su Yue and ran to Zhou Wanwan to squat.
Zhou Chen and Shen Guodong were also puzzled. Why did Xiao Wang suddenly pounce on Su Yue? Shen Guodong is puzzled, and he will not let people say this about Xiao Wang and Zhou Wanwan, "Shut up!" I don't care what you're like in your house, here you are. You have to do as the locals do! There must have been a reason why the dog went to pounce on her. Let's talk about it after we figure it out! My fiancΓ©e is here to help, and if you dare to be so rude to her again, I will definitely whip you for her! If you can be the master of the Lin family, say that you don't need to help, and we will all leave! Have you done this Lord? β
Mary Lin couldn't be the master, and she didn't dare to say that she didn't need to help, but she was unwilling to be so faceless, and she was thinking about how to move back. The test results in the space are out.
"Mr. Lin, Lin Zishu didn't wear this coat, right? Or new. There is only the taste of this lady and Miss Lin on it, and this lady has the most, so my dog went to look for her. β
"What nonsense are you talking about?! Zishu's clothes are all handled by me, what am I going to do to him!? Take the clothes he didn't wear! "Mary Lin will come to Zhou Wanwan immediately.
"I will know if I wear it or not, I am afraid that if you don't tell the truth, you will delay the search for the child when the time comes!" Shen Guodong blocked Zhou Wanwan and Xiao Wang behind him, and regretted taking the two of them out very much, that Lin Zishu died if he died, and if he lost it, he lost it, it was really not worth it to let their little girl suffer this kind of anger!
"Dad, maybe I got it wrong in a hurry." Su Yue immediately went to look at the coat in Zhou Wanwan's hand, and then explained very apologetically, "Zishu likes this coat very much, I customized three pieces for him in one version, and I brought two pieces this time, this one really didn't wear it, it was my negligence." β
Then I quickly ran out and got another one back.
After Xiao Wang smelled it this time, he looked back at Zhou Wanwan and asked her if she was ready, she was going to find someone.
Shen Guodong also understood Xiao Wang's movements, and immediately ordered Xiao Shan, who was waiting on the side, "You drive with a platoon of soldiers to follow, contact us at any time, everything is based on their safety." "He really can't leave here, otherwise he will definitely not hand over Zhou Wanwan to anyone.
As Shen Guodong's first secretary, Xiao Shan certainly knew the importance of Zhou Wanwan in Shen Guodong's heart, nodded solemnly, and took Zhou Wanwan and Zhou Chen out with Xiao Wang.
Shen Guodong was still not at ease, and glanced at Uncle Xiao Zhang again, and Uncle Xiao Zhang also followed with a team of soldiers.
Xiao Wang ran wildly all the way, directly rushing to the bank of the Dongjiang River not far from the central street. The Dongjiang River flows through the provincial capital, there is a long river in the city, which is the most famous scenic spot in the city, and part of the lanterns of the Lantern Festival are placed along the river bank, and Lin Zhaoheng and they have just passed by here.
Xiao Wang ran through the brightly lit lamp market, ran for a short time by the sparsely populated riverside, and finally stopped at a small wooden boat frozen in ice by the river.
This small wooden boat, which was used to salvage garbage along the river in the summer, was hidden behind a large pile of trimmed dead branches, covered with a shabby tarpaulin, and no one would have paid attention to this small broken boat if it were not for Xiao Wang.
Xiao Wang stopped, not knowing why, but he refused to let the PLA soldiers who wanted to go over to explore the way close, and even Xiao Shan and Uncle Xiao Zhang couldn't go over. Zhou Chen patted its head, walked over and lifted the tarpaulin, and saw the child lying quietly in a thin piece of ice.
It was already far away from the street lamp, and Zhou Chen's stunned expression Zhou Wanwan saw it clearly, but she didn't see the situation in the boat, and she also walked over.
Zhou Wanwan was also stunned for a moment. There was a thin layer of ice in the cabin of the boat, which was supposed to be the rain that had gone in the summer, and in the dim light, a little boy lay there quietly, not knowing whether he was asleep or dead.
Zhou Chen immediately went over and touched the side of his neck, and then looked back at his sister. "There's almost no heartbeat left."
That is, there is still salvation. Zhou Wanwan immediately walked over, and a few drops of spiritual liquid dripped down her fingers into the little boy's mouth, and then she took a closer look at the child's appearance. With a high nose and deep eyes, it is not at all Asian.
Zhou Chen and Zhou Wanwan's hearts were shocked at the same time, did they find the wrong person? Lin Zhaoheng is a native of this province, and he is married to a pure Asian, Lin Jiahao and Su Yue have no foreign blood, how can this child grow like this.
Zhou Chen picked up the child, and the light of the street lamp shone through. Let the two of them see his snow-white skin and golden hair clearly. This is a child of pure European origin.
Although the two of them had doubts, Xiao Wang followed the smell and came over, which was basically not wrong. And rightly or wrongly, this child must be brought back. Zhou Chen carefully observed the surroundings of the boat again, the river surface was frozen firmly, and there were scattered branches, and the environment here was very messy. In the hurry, no clues could be found.
The first priority is to take the child back. Zhou Chen was just about to carry him away, but the child suddenly opened his eyes, and Zhou Wanwan, who had been paying attention to his physical condition in front of him, immediately came into the child's eyes.
Seeing him wake up, Zhou Wanwan immediately smiled, and before she could figure out how to greet him, the child suddenly smiled at her, the smile was very bright, and there was a deep yearning and attachment. "Mom."
Zhou Chen and Zhou Wan were stunned for a moment. Before they could react, the child fainted again.
Don't dare to delay any longer. Zhou Chen hurriedly returned to the shore with the child in his arms and got in the car to go back. Uncle Zhang had already used the walkie-talkie in his car to contact the hospital, and the child was not sent to Central Street, but went directly to the emergency room of the People's Hospital.
Lin Zhaoheng and his entourage are also rushing to the People's Hospital.
In the car, Zhou Wanwan held the child's hand and gave him a comprehensive physical examination.
The results of the examination scared her into a cold sweat. This child took a strong diazepam dose, which was so large that it could keep him awake for a long time, and even if someone was detected in time, the large dose of the drug would damage his brain, making him a stupid patient in the future, and there was no possibility of recovery.
And his brain had physical damage at a very young age, it should be about two years old, the area responsible for memory and language was partially damaged, before this time he took Valium, he should also have some defects, maybe some short-term or long-term memory will be missing, and there will be intermittent impairment of language function.
And these injuries will become more and more obvious with age, and with the level of medicine now and in the coming decades, it will not help him recover.
Fortunately, he was lucky, and when he met Zhou Wanwan, the healing effect of the spiritual fluid on physical damage could be said to be 100%, but he was injured for too long, and it may take a few days to recover.
And for the potent tranquilizer to be removed, a stepwise process is needed in his damaged brain. The moment he woke up after eating the ichor, it proved that the ichor worked, and he might wake up a few more times after a while, and the time interval would get longer and longer, and it would be a few days before he healed.
Zhou Wanwan pinched the child's slender hand, and smiled in her heart, just called me in a daze, Mom, you don't lose it, wake up in a few days, and be a healthy child!
After carefully looking at the results of this child's physical examination, in addition to brain damage and strong diazepam, what surprised Zhou Wanwan the most about this child was his IQ, which reached one hundred and eighty-five, which is still a little genius!
Soon arrived at the People's Hospital, where doctors and nurses were waiting at the door, and the child was immediately pushed to the emergency room for physical examination.
With the current level of medicine, it is impossible to detect anything for a while. Zhou Chen took Zhou Wanwan to sit outside the emergency room and wait for the results with everyone, Zhou Wanwan winked at Zhou Chen gently, and Zhou Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Zhaoheng and his entourage came over quickly, and the director of the hospital came out of the emergency room with experts from various departments to greet them, briefly introduced the child's situation, and was about to take the child to take a film.
"Zishu, can you hear grandpa? Zishu? Lin Zhaoheng has long lost his usual majesty and wisdom at this moment, just an ordinary grandfather who is anxious for his grandson.
Zhou Chen and Zhou Wanwan glanced at each other again, this beautiful little boy from Europe and the United States who looked even less Asian under the light was really Lin Zhaoheng's grandson!
I don't know if I heard my grandfather's call, Lin Zishu opened his eyes again.
"Zishu, where are you uncomfortable? Where? Touch it to show grandpa? β
"Big nephew! Where did you go! I'm going to die aunt!"
"Zishu, who took you away? Do you remember? Can you write it out? β
"Zishu! You kid can't be so disobedient in the future! Do you know what a lot of trouble you've caused this time?! β
β¦β¦
Lin Zishu looked at the people around him, raised his head and looked around, and finally found the person he was looking for in the gap in the crowd, opened the nurse who was blocking his view, opened his arms to Zhou Wanwan, and smiled like the blonde angel next to the legendary God, "Mom!" β
The audience was shocked, and for a while, the needles at the door of the entire emergency room could be heard. (To be continued.) )
