Chapter 5: Hide and Seek

Time passed minute by minute, and the two-hour death order of the four headquarters was getting closer and closer, but Xiao Yuanchao still couldn't be found in Xiakeling.

The superiors were furious, Sun Honglie resisted the pressure, and Xiao Hongjun gradually lost hope.

His wife's calls came over and over again, but Xiao Hongjun didn't know whether to answer or not. He didn't want his wife to know about it, and he wanted to be able to come home with his son intact as if nothing had happened.

The phone rang again, Xiao Hongjun stared at the familiar number, took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile, and finally picked up his wife's phone. He wants to use a lie to stabilize his wife, no matter how long he can stabilize his wife, in short, it will be a while longer.

"Xiuying," Xiao Hongjun pinched his mobile phone, trying to stabilize his somewhat trembling voice, and said in a normal tone: "I'll take my son out to eat and go back later." ”

Xiao Yuanchao's mother's name is Zhao Xiuying, and she has a name that many people used in that era.

"What are you eating with your son?" Zhao Xiuying's surprised voice came from the phone. "My son just got home, where did you go? Hurry home for dinner. ”

"What? What did you say? Xiao Hongjun was short of breath, his eyes widened, and he asked in an almost roaring voice.

"Are you old and confused? We're waiting for you to come back for dinner, and go home quickly. ”

"What about the son? What about the son? I'm going to talk to him! ”

"Lao Xiao, what's wrong with you today?" Zhao Xiuying asked suspiciously.

"Don't care what happened to me today!" Xiao Hongjun yelled into the phone: "Immediately take the phone to my son and let him talk to me!" ”

Wasn't the son kidnapped, and how did he get home? Xiao Hongjun couldn't figure it out, he had to hear his son's voice before he dared to confirm and believe.

After a while, Xiao Hongjun clearly heard his son's timid voice: "Dad, go home for dinner, I'm hungry." ”

Hearing this familiar voice, Xiao Hongjun's tears welled up, and then he roared: "Where did you go!" Shit, where did you run for me? You know how to eat and eat all day long, and I have to beat you to death! ”

Xiao Yuanchao on the phone cried all of a sudden, but he didn't dare to cry loudly in front of his father, so he could only hold back and whimper.

"Someone has been found, at home!" Xiao Hongjun hung up the phone and shouted.

Sun Honglie on the mountain got the news, immediately went down the mountain, got into the car with Xiao Hongjun, and rushed towards Xiao Hongjun's house frantically.

Along the way, Xiao Hongjun kept smoking cigarettes, his face showing anger for a while, and relief for a while. My son is at home, yes, I heard it right, it was my son's voice. But how did he get home, how did he get home?

With a "bang", the door of his bungalow was pushed open, and the thin Xiao Yuanchao sat upright at the dining table in the hall.

When Xiao Yuanchao saw his father walk in, his face was full of fear, and he stood up straight, his small body trembling constantly.

Seeing that his son was intact, Xiao Hongjun's heart hanging in his throat finally let go. But then came anger, incomparably angry.

"Say! Where did you go! Xiao Hongjun was like an explosive beast, roaring at Xiao Yuanchao, raising his right hand to fight.

"Poof", Xiao Yuanchao was so frightened that he sat on the ground, supported the ground with his two hands, and kept retreating until he retreated under the table, and then he opened his mouth and cried loudly: "Dad, woo woo...... Don't hit me, I don't dare to run around anymore, don't dare anymore, woo woo woo ......"

In front of Xiao Hongjun, Xiao Yuanchao's courage was smaller than that of a mouse. What he was most afraid of was that his father would beat him, and he was afraid that his father would beat him to death.

"Xiao Hongjun, what do you want to do!" Zhao Xiuying pulled her son, who was crying loudly, out from under the table and hugged him tightly, and shouted at Xiao Hongjun: "If you dare to touch your son today, I will die with you!" ”

Seeing that his wife was like a female tiger protecting her cubs, Xiao Hongjun's right hand raised in the air was fixed there, and then slowly put it down. His angry cheeks became calm, kind and kind.

"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay, hehe." Xiao Hongjun smiled and reached out to hold his son from his wife's arms.

But Zhao Xiuying took a big step back and stared at Xiao Hongjun vigilantly.

"Dad, woo woo woo ......" Xiao Yuanchao wrapped one hand tightly around his mother's neck, crying and took out a pack of cigarettes from his coat pocket and handed it to Xiao Hongjun.

Xiao Hongjun was stunned, and Sun Honglie, who had already reported to the leader behind him, was also stunned.

"Where did the smoke come from?" Xiao Hongjun looked at Xiao Yuanchao and asked softly.

"I bought it for you, woowoo...... I see you, your cigarette is finished, woo ......" Xiao Yuanchao sobbed and said: "I use the little pig, the little pig's money, the money...... I also bought Want Want snow cakes. Dad, Dad...... Woowoo...... I don't dare anymore, don't beat me to death, woo woo woo ......"

Hearing this, Xiao Hongjun slammed his fist on the table, squatted on the ground and hugged his head and cried.

Zhao Xiuying, who was holding the child, also cried, and the family of three cried together.

Sun Honglie, who was standing there, didn't know what it was like in his heart, he knew very well what the three generations of the Xiao family were, and he knew even more about what kind of iron-blooded man Xiao Hongjun was on the battlefield back then, but today he knelt, cried, and pleaded.

"Lao Xiao, it's okay, it's all over." Sun Honglie patted Xiao Hongjun's twitching shoulder, and said to Zhao Xiuying: "Sister-in-law, Lao Xiao saw some things today, and his feelings were a little unstable. It's okay, it's okay. ”

Zhao Xiuying wiped her tears and nodded, she didn't know what happened today, and Lao Xiao's love in the past two years was indeed wrong, and even said that she was a little schizophrenic.

Xiao Yuanchao looked at Sun Honglie's military uniform with a pair of teary eyes, touched the table with his right hand, and quickly stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it after touching a piece of meat, and then looked at his crying father with fear.

"If the child is hungry, let the child eat first." Sun Honglie helped Xiao Hongjun up and said with a smile: "Old Xiao, I'm hungry too, when it's you, you have to take care of my meal, hehe." ”

Xiao Hongjun wiped away his tears vigorously, looked at his son's timid eyes, and stretched out his hand to touch his son's head.

Xiao Yuanchao's body immediately trembled, and the timidity in his eyes turned into horror.

Seeing his son's expression, Xiao Hongjun sighed deeply, his face was full of regret and self-blame, and he said in a low voice: "Eat." ”

After eating a meal, Xiao Hongjun smoked the cigarettes that his son bought for him with the change in the piggy bank, and gently hugged his wife in a daze.

Sun Honglie has already left, there is no need to let Zhao Xiuying know about this matter, and he still has to hunt down the bandit.

Xiao Yuanchao, who was curled up in the quilt, bit his fingers, and his little head was in excitement: Dad didn't hit me today, he really didn't hit me. That uncle didn't lie to me, he's a good guy!

It was late at night, and after a day of high mental tension, Xiao Hongjun and Zhao Xiuying fell asleep, but Xiao Yuanchao woke up and looked at the person sitting in front of his bed with wide eyes: the uncle who didn't lie to him, Chang Sheng.

"Xiao Yuanchao, Wangwang Snow Cake." Chang Sheng put a big bag of Want Want snow cakes on the bed, and said with a smile: "Go down the mountain, go left, go left, go left, go left, go right, go right, turn a corner, go right, jump over, go right, go right, go right, go right, go right." I found the hospital and saw a doctor. ”

Seeing Want Want Snow Cake, Xiao Yuanchao grinned, grabbed one and tore open the plastic wrapper, and ate it crunchy.

"Xiao Yuanchao, can you tell me how did you get home by yourself?" Chang Sheng asked.

He came here to find out the question: how the hell did this child get home without anyone noticing?

"Just go right, go right, go left, take the bus." Xiao Yuanchao, who was eating Wangwang snow cakes in his mouth, stretched out his hand and gestured.

"But there are so many people on the mountain, why haven't you been discovered by them?" Chang Sheng continued to ask.

"Hide and seek." Xiao Yuanchao tore open another Wangwang snow cake and said without raising his head.

Hide-and-seek? Hide and seek with the special forces? A five-and-a-half-year-old child playing hide-and-seek with special forces and not being discovered?

Chang Sheng's eyes showed a heavy color, and he continued to ask, "How did you play hide and seek with them?" ”

"It's hide-and-seek." Xiao Yuanchao raised his head, sucked his fingers and whispered: "Uncle, my father really didn't beat me, you didn't lie to me, you also bought me Want Want snow cakes, I told you how to hide and seek." ”

After saying this, Xiao Yuanchao put down the Want Want Snow Cake in his hand, jumped under the bed like a treasure, and laboriously moved the bedside table, revealing a hole leading to the outside.

"You dug it up?" Chang Sheng asked in surprise.

Xiao Yuanchao nodded vigorously, looked at the bedroom door, stretched out his little hand to his mouth, and said in a shhh ”

"Did you dig it?" Chang Sheng asked repeatedly.

This wall is a two-four brick wall with cement on it, and it is difficult for an adult to dig it, let alone a five-and-a-half-year-old child digging a hole here. And this hole was dug out under the noses of adults, and it was not even discovered!

Xiao Yuanchao nodded vigorously, knelt on the ground, pulled out a small bag from under the bed and opened it, and said to himself: "I can get out of it as a child, but you can't get out as an adult......"

The pouch contains pliers, awls, scissors, rulers, compasses, shoehorns, screwdrivers, small iron rods, chopsticks, toothpicks, and so on. Anyway, as long as there is something that can be used to dig, there is everything, and there is also a feeding bottle.

"What is this for?" Chang Sheng pinched the bottle and found that there was still water in it.

"Uncle, you're so stupid, the wall is so hard, of course you have to soak it in water to dig it." Xiao Yuanchao took the bottle seriously and poured water into the hole that could only allow him to drill. (http://.)。

Chang Sheng's eyes glowed with a thick heat, as if he had seen an unexplored treasure.

"Sue me!" Chang Sheng grabbed Xiao Yuanchao's thin shoulder, stared into the other party's eyes and asked, "How long did it take you to dig this hole?" ”

Xiao Yuanchao tilted his little head to look at the ceiling, and began to count with his fingers.

Chang Sheng didn't bother the child until he saw Xiao Yuanchao start breaking his toes.

"What are you doing with your toes?" Chang Sheng asked.

"I don't have enough fingers." Xiao Yuanchao shook his head and said, "Uncle, don't bother me, I'll count it." ”

After breaking his fingers and toes many times, Xiao Yuanchao finally took a breath, raised his head and said to Chang Sheng: "I'm okay!" ”

"For how long?"

"It's been a long time!" Xiao Yuanchao stretched out his little arms and drew a big circle.

"How long exactly?"

"It seems to be ......" Xiao Yuanchao bit his finger and thought for a long time, stretched out five fingers and said, "It's been so long......"

Chang Sheng didn't know how long it was, because he couldn't understand the world of children. But he saw endless potential from Xiao Yuanchao, he wanted this child!

"Sue me, do you want to be a soldier?" Chang Sheng hugged Xiao Yuanchao.

"What is being a soldier?" Xiao Yuanchao blinked.

"It's the people who can play hide and seek with you, like the people you went down the mountain home today to play hide and seek with them, and ...... Your brother. ”

Xiao Yuanchao's eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously: My brother is the best at hide and seek, being a soldier is hide and seek, being a soldier is playing hide and seek with my brother again, and there are new Transformers, hehe......
