On a bus, Xu Jicheng wore a cap and headphones, but in fact, he didn't play a song, his eyes drifted around from time to time, and he looked sneaky, how strange it looked.

The people around him, especially the young female passengers, consciously avoided him half a meter away, so timid, either a thief or a lewd man.

But in fact, he is now following a middle-aged man with a baby in his arms, sitting in the far corner of the last row, looking inconspicuous.

But only Xu Jicheng knows that behind this person, a major abduction case may be implicated.

······

Since Xu Jicheng found out that Zhang Yang was suspected of a human trafficking incident a few days ago, he basically did not participate in the corpse shredding case.

In the past few days, I have been driving my second-hand Volkswagen car, squatting in the northern suburbs.

His eyes flashed from both sides of the road, was the child his mother holding in her hands, her own? The father in shabby clothes, the boy in his hand, was he bought? Also, the boy who kneeled on the side of the road was abducted?

These days, these questions are running through his mind so much that he feels a little stunned, looking at everyone like a human trafficker.

Until, when he was eating at a noodle restaurant on the side of the road at noon, a middle-aged man came in, dressed very rustic, holding a child who looked more than a year old in his arms, crying very much, it was the meal, naturally, Xu Jicheng thought that the child was hungry, so he didn't care much.

The man said, "Boss, let's have a bowl of oily noodles." ”

"Okay, do you want chili?"

"Yes, put more."

"Okay, wait a minute."

The noodles were quickly ready, and the moment the hot oil was splashed up, there was a sizzling sound, and a strong sour and spicy aroma wafted out of the back kitchen, and the restaurant soon heard the sound of several swallowing saliva.

"The noodles are good, you can use them slowly."

The sound of eating noodles is one after another in the restaurant.

Xu Jicheng gulped down the noodles, thinking to himself, this noodle tastes good, the business is simply too hot, fortunately it came early, otherwise it would have to queue up.

"Hey, this big brother, the child has a bad stomach and can't eat too spicy."

The small noodle restaurant, noisy and shouting, this female voice, also died out quickly, and no one paid attention.

Hearing this, it may be in the instinct of the police, and the curiosity is relatively strong, Xu Jicheng glanced up.

The middle-aged man, who was feeding the child in his arms to eat his noodles, may have choked on chili peppers, and the child was crying louder than the talking in the restaurant.

The one who reminded was an aunt, probably out of rich parenting experience, and she couldn't stand someone tossing a child like this, so she said again: "It's the first time you bring your grandson, the child can't eat too exciting, you can feed him some gruel, or drink some noodle soup." ”

Who knew that the middle-aged man didn't care, "What kind of porridge to drink, waste money." After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel inappropriate, and said: "He eats like this at home, boy, can't be too delicate." ”

The aunt wanted to say something, but before she could open her mouth, she was stopped by the man at the same table, "Mom, that's someone's own business, don't meddle with it." ”

"My husband is right." The young woman at the same table complimented her husband, turned her head and changed her demeanor, and said sneeringly: "I can't worry about my own affairs, and I still want to take care of other people's affairs." ”

"Alas!"

The person spoke softly, and the aunt seemed to be very afraid of her son and daughter-in-law, so she didn't speak again after all, so she could only sigh by herself.

"What is noisy, you know to cry all day long." That kind of young man slapped the child's head twice to relieve his anger, "Eat, eat, eat, so squeamish, I can't eat chili peppers." ”

"What didn't I eat when I was a child?"

The man scolded a few words, and when he found that the people around him were looking at him, he shouted: "What do you see, Lao Tzu's education of his grandson is hindering you." ”

Passers-by, who were afraid of causing trouble, quickly pretended that nothing had happened, and quickly got into a new topic.

But in the midst of the noise, there was always the cry of children, but at the moment they seemed to be deaf, and they could not hear anything.

This matter, like a grain of sand falling into the dust, stirred up a burst of dust, and then quickly fell, leaving no trace, in the sound of people's conversation, was gradually forgotten.

Xu Jicheng has been silently watching the whole incident in front of the noodle eating crowd.

He felt that the man in front of him was acting very suspiciously, and if he was his own child, who would give him chili peppers?

Don't all feel distressed as a treasure, hold it in your mouth for fear of melting, and hold it in the palm of your hand for fear of falling.

Xu Jicheng slipped the last noodle in the bowl, ate the dishes in the bowl cleanly, and then paid and left the restaurant.

But he didn't go far, hiding in a store, under the pretense of buying something, monitoring the noodle shop, and when the middle-aged man came out, he immediately followed.

······

In the hospital, Feng Yuan chased Li Yi out of the ward, the other party walked very fast, it was the direction of the elevator entrance, Feng Yuan didn't know what he wanted to do.

"Hey, where are you going? Wait for me. As he spoke, he trotted a few steps to catch up, but he didn't brake the car for a while and hit Li Yi's back who stopped.

Feng Yuan is very solid, his height and weight are much higher than Li Yi, and the consequence of the collision between the two is naturally that Li Yi staggered a few steps forward.

Feng Yuan grabbed Li Yi, who was about to fall, and said, "Be careful." ”

Li Yi said: "Why are you running so fast? ”

"Why are you going?"

"I'll go see Qin Youyou." Li Yi glanced at Feng Yuan and said, "Are you going?" "Anyway, he knows this guy, and he'll follow up now.

"Of course I want to go."

No matter how you say it, the other party died suddenly and unexpectedly, Feng Yuan was still very uncomfortable.

Feng Yuan pressed the elevator and said, "You, are you okay?" ”

Li Yi's expression looked normal, not at all as excited as just now, Feng Yuan didn't know if the other party needed comfort now, and after grinding for a long time, he spit out this sentence in his mouth.

"It's fine." Li Yi smiled: "I'm worried about you again." ”

"You shouldn't have talked to your dad like that." Feng Yuan hesitated and said, "Even if he has done something before that makes you unhappy, he is your closest person after all." ”

"Close?" Li Yi sneered: "You don't know anything at all. ”

Feng Yuan felt very uncomfortable, "I don't know anything, but I can see that he really loves you in his heart." ”

"Love me?" Li Yi said: "That's right, I believe he loves me, but what can I do, it's too late." ”

Li Yi looked hideous and sneered, but his eyes were sad.
