Chapter Twenty-Three—The Search for Whereabouts
On this day, the weather was neither hot nor cold, quite spring, and the air was filled with the fragrance of early spring flowers. It was morning, and the sunlight was not so strong, gently scratching people's hair and nose tips.
Fang's mansion has six floors, there are two gardens alone, the swimming pool is spacious and huge, the layout of the entire Fang's mansion is luxurious and dignified, and the maid aunt shuttles in an orderly manner in the huge mansion, but Fang's mother feels lonely because she has lost her son, and her body is not very good, and it is even worse to experience this change.
Her personal housekeeper Lian Yi was distressed in her eyes, after all, in her eyes, there was no more gentle, dignified and sensible lady in the world like Mrs. Fang, compared to the previous Mrs. Fang, she was much easier to serve, the former Mrs. Fang is the sister of the current Mrs. Fang, compared to her sister, her sister is both spicy and tricky, and she is a noble lady image who is not easy to mess with.
Fang's father deals with things in the company, not around, only with Mrs. Fang and her son Fang Yi in her fortieth birthday to give her the golden retriever dog as a companion, this is a very patient and gentle golden retriever dog to people, especially to please Mrs. Fang, in the days when his son Fang is not there, thanks to its daily companionship. Fang Mu named it Fanxing because its eyes were particularly bright, just like the stars in the sky.
Fang's mother Huayu's body was a little sick today, so the housekeeper Lian Yi accompanied Mrs. Fang to lead the stars for a walk. She suddenly remembered Qu Qinghe, remembered that her mother was diabetic and was not in good health, and Qu Qinghe was her son's girlfriend, so she wanted to make a phone call to greet Qu Qinghe and her mother.
So Fang's mother dialed the phone on the carved mahogany coffee table in the living room, the phone was dialed, Qu Qinghe on the other end of the phone heard the timbre and recognized that it was Fang's mother's voice, so she said hello very politely, I heard that Fang's mother was calling to care about her mother, and thanked her mother for her greetings.
"Xiaoqu, since my child disappeared, I have been lonely and lonely, thanks to you who often come to see me to relieve my boredom. Otherwise, I might not be able to handle it. Fang Mu Huayu on the other end of the phone said with gratitude.
"Aunt Fang, it's nothing, my mother is hospitalized, Fang Chen rushed over and advanced the hospitalization fee for me, I should thank you."
Fang's mother was slightly surprised, she thought to herself why Fang Chen always went to find Qu Qinghe, so she asked in a tentative tone, "Xiaoqu, is your mother hospitalized?" Or is it the hospitalization fee for Chen'er's pad? ”
"Yes, aunt."
"Er'er is not by your side, these can be shared by him for you. I just don't know when he will come back, and he still hasn't been found. ”
As soon as he heard Mrs. Fang say this, Qu Qinghe wondered in his heart, didn't Fang Chen tell Aunt Fang and Uncle Fang about Fang Chen? She remembered what he said before, and she didn't know what she meant, so she decided to tell Aunt Fang about seeing Fang Xi in the hospital first. After all, Fang Yan was Aunt Fang and Uncle Fang's own flesh and blood, and they had the right to know about this matter.
"Aunt Fang, in fact, I saw Fang Xi in a hospital not long ago."
Hearing Qu Qinghe say that she saw Xin'er, Fang's mother was overjoyed, and said to Qu Qinghe on the other end of the phone: "Xiaoqu, tell me what's going on, where is Xi'er now?" ”
"Aunt Fang, this matter is a little strange, I can't tell it on the phone for a while." Qu Qinghe said with some hesitation.
Seeing that Qu Qinghe seemed to be a little embarrassed, Fang's mother Huayu invited Qu Qinghe to come to her home for a detailed discussion on the phone. Qu Qinghe agreed, and the two met at Fangfu at about ten o'clock in the morning.
Qu Qinghe was beaten in the past, while she was teaching at her alma mater, she also had to go to see her hospitalized mother, running around at both ends, and she was also a little tired physically and mentally these days.
Fang's mother saw Qu Qinghe, who was wrapped in a gray woolen sweater and a small brown cloak, get out of the car, Fang's mother didn't care about her delicate body, she walked towards Qu Qinghe quickly in small steps, took her arm like a daughter, and the two walked into Fang's mansion side by side like a mother and daughter.
"Ah Xiang, go and call the company, ask the master to come back, say that Mi'er has a whereabouts, and tell him to come back as soon as possible." Mother Fang gently instructed the maid Ah Xiang.
"Yes, ma'am."
"Come, Xiaoqu, sit here." Fang's mother warmly and thoughtfully led Qu Qinghe to sit down in front of the patent leather Indian aristocratic sofa, Qu Qinghe looked up at the gorgeous and bright dome chandelier, and then looked at the fireplace behind him, and sat down reservedly.
After sitting down, Fang's mother asked Qu Qinghe about Fang Xian straight to the point, and Qu Qinghe answered in detail one by one. Half an hour later, she finally sorted out the whole thing for Fang's mother.
"In this way, Er'er is still alive, and the reason why he didn't go home may be something unspeakable." Fang Mu lowered her head slightly and frowned in contemplation.
"Yes, Fang Chen and I guess whether he will be controlled by someone, something like a pyramid scheme, otherwise there is no reason for him not to go home for so long." Qu Qinghe said.
"Then why didn't Chen'er let you tell us?" Fang Mu felt a little strange.
Qu Qinghe thought for a while, and didn't come up with a reason, so he said: "He asked me not to tell you about this matter first, he wants to tell you himself, saying that he wants to discuss something in the long run, but he still hasn't said it, maybe he doesn't know how to say it." ”
"Xiaoqu, you don't know, Chen'er had a quarrel with your Uncle Fang not long ago, and he walked away, and he never went home, eating and staying either in the hotel or in the company, and I don't know what happened to this child, I feel the same as your Uncle Fang, I always feel that he has changed a little and has become less sensible." Aunt Fang was a little melancholy when she said this, she rested her elbows on the armrests of the sofa, and supported her forehead with her palms.
"Yes, I also noticed something wrong with him, but I couldn't tell how I felt."
"Chen'er has always been very sensible, but I can see that he is hiding the pain in his heart, Chen'er has always been very stubborn, there is no sadness, only his own spiritual world, the personalities of the two of them are completely different, Chen'er has given me the feeling that he is slowly approaching Chen'er, but it is very different from Chen'er, I can't say, I always feel that Chen'er has more anger in his eyes......"
Just as the two of them were talking about the two brothers, Fang Chen and Fang Chen, Fang Shiye, the president of Fang's Group, hurriedly drove his private 20 million Rolls-Royce back, and as soon as he opened the door, he took off his suit jacket and handed it to a subordinate, and then sat opposite Qu Qinghe and Fang's mother without drinking water.
"I've heard the news of Er'er, is it true?" After speaking, Father Fang picked up a cup of high-grade Longjing brought by the maid Ah Xiang and drank a few sips of "Gu Dong" and "Gu Dong".
"Yes, drink slowly." Mother Fang saw that Father Fang was a little rude in front of the guests, and said with some disgust.
Father Fang, who had finished drinking the tea, looked at Qu Qinghe and said happily: "Xiaoqu, where did you see Xi'er, I will send someone to find it." ”
"It's in a big hospital." Then Qu Qinghe repeated what the other mother said to Fang's father.
After thinking about it for a while, Father Fang decided to immediately set off to the hospital to investigate the situation.
Fang's father found the dean and asked to call up the surveillance video from a few days ago, but the dean refused on the grounds that the record had been eliminated for too long, it turned out that Fang Chen was not at ease before leaving, and was afraid that someone would come to the surveillance video, so he gave the dean 100,000 yuan and asked him to ensure that the video would not fall into the hands of others. And the surveillance video data of that day was destroyed.
The dean didn't care about the 100,000 yuan, but he didn't dare to offend the eldest young master of the Fang family, after all, they were in the hospital, and the Fang family also had a certain share. Now the president of the Fang Group came to him to ask for the surveillance video, and he had to give it, but the record was gone, and he couldn't make one out of thin air, besides, the eldest young master had already instructed himself not to tell him that his father was the one who destroyed the video, and both sides couldn't afford to offend, so he could only say that.
Fang's father is also a person who has seen strong winds and waves, and when he saw that he didn't get the surveillance video of the day, he didn't panic too much at the moment, but thought for a while, picked up his mobile phone and dialed a person's phone, which was the phone number of Director Liang of the police station. Fang's father asked to see the surveillance footage from both sides of the hospital. Because he was an old friend of Fang's father, Director Liang agreed.
According to the surveillance on both sides of the road shown by the police station, two men and a woman came to the hospital in groups that day. Looking at the familiar faces gradually pouring out on the screen, Fang's mother cried with joy at the screen: "Shiye, have you seen it, it's Er'er, it's our family's Er'er, he's still the same, he hasn't changed at all." ”
It's just that Fang Shiye frowned: "Why is Xi'er dressed like this, how poor is he now?" And what's going on with the man and the woman next to him? ”
Qu Qinghe hurriedly said: "Uncle Fang, it's okay if someone finds it, and now everything will be handed over to the police to deal with." ”
Mother Fang was still reluctant, and kept staring at the screen. "Let me take another look, and I'll leave after one more look."
Through the investigation of the surveillance, the police found a surveillance in the last place where the three people disappeared, and they got on a small bus to a certain village. So it was decided to use the police force to attack on the afternoon of the second day.
Director Liang called Fang's father in advance, saying that he had decided to launch a rescue on the afternoon of the second day, and Fang's father was grateful.
Fang's father put down the phone and said loudly to his mother: "Yu'er, do you know, Director Liang called just now, and said that the police will be sent to find Xin'er in the afternoon, and we will drive together." ”
"Really? That's great! Fang's mother was so excited that she almost burst into tears.
The old lady Fang on the side was also nodding busily with a cane, looking in good spirits. "I finally have a whereabouts, my old lady's one-year fasting and reciting Buddha has not been in vain."
And Wen Wei behind them heard this conversation, although he greeted him with a smile on his face, but his heart was not calm, he took advantage of everyone's inattention to retreat to the kitchen, and happened to meet Lian Yi who served medicine to his wife.
"Go and bring the medicine to Madame, I've got something to do here."
"Husband, you ......"
"Don't call me husband at Fang's house, what should I do if others hear about it, I don't want to expose our relationship, go quickly!" Wen Wei lowered his voice and scolded Lian Yi.
"Oh, got it." Lian Yi hurriedly exited the kitchen and brought the medicine to Mrs. Fang.
"Ma'am, drink the medicine."
"That's right, Yu'er, drink the medicine, drink the medicine." Father Fang brought the medicine bowl to his mother and said, "Quick, drink it." Your body matters. ”
What I didn't expect was Fang Mu and said with a smile: "Shiye, I know that Xi'er is fine, it's like taking a reassuring pill, you don't need to drink any tonics, and I feel that my illness is seven or eight points better." ”
"That's not the case, the medicine still has to be drunk." Fang's father urged Fang's mother to drink the medicine.
"Yes, I'll just listen to you." Mother Fang took a small sip of the medicine and drank it, "This medicine is really bitter." ”
Wen Wei on the kitchen side looked into the hall with his head probed, and at the same time quickly dialed a call on his mobile phone, and an impatient voice came from the other party: "Wen Wei, is there something wrong, I've been annoyed a lot lately, don't bother me!" ”
Wen Wei half-covered the microphone and said vaguely: "Big young master, it's not good, Mrs. ......."
