Chapter 11: Deterioration
Although Liang Bin has worked very hard to communicate with the people at the police station and cooperate with Taotao's search for work as much as possible, a week has passed, but he still hasn't gotten any information about Taotao.
Liang Bin also had no intention of going to work, and took a whole month off, which was almost equivalent to a broken jar for the company.
If the company understands him and is willing to wait for him, it is best, if he does not understand and is unwilling to wait for him, then he will give up the job.
After all, no matter how important work is, it is far less important than family.
Every day, he would post missing person notices in the post bar in Hamasaki City, and he also printed a lot of missing person notices with photos of Taotao, and posted them almost all around their community.
Not only that, he would get up early every day, and then take a picture of Tao Tao and ask all the passers-by he could see one by one.
However, the result is still the same.
Fortunately, Zhang Ming has finally recovered a little in the past two days, and Ken came out of the room. Although the mental state is still very bad, as long as you are willing to come out of the self-isolation state, then there is still hope for recovery.
Another day of desperate searching, Liang Bin had just returned from outside in the evening, and he hadn't even had time to sit on the sofa to catch his breath.
There was a series of "knocks" outside the door.
Liang Bin dragged his somewhat heavy legs to the door, and after opening the door, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the person who came to the door was Zhang Ming's good friend Han Qing.
In the past two days, as long as Han Qing is free, he will come to his house to help him comfort Zhang Ming. In order to find Taotao's whereabouts as soon as possible, she also entrusted all the relationships she could support.
The so-called adversity sees the truth, and only when you are in trouble, the people who are still standing by your side are true friends.
Obviously, Han Qing, who is standing in front of him now, is worthy of the "two words" of friends.
"How's it going, is there a clue over there?"
As soon as Han Qing came in, he immediately asked about Taotao.
"Not yet."
Liang Bin sighed, and he couldn't even show a wry smile when he was in a bad mood.
"As long as we don't give up, we will be able to find Tao Tao sooner or later.
But you have to protect your body, don't find it, your body will collapse again. ”
After persuading Liang Bin, Han Qing glanced at the stairs and asked:
"Is Zhang Ming on it?"
"Well, I've just come back. Go up and help me see her, and you can persuade her.
If you hadn't come over these two days, I'm afraid she would have locked herself in her room without eating or drinking. ”
Liang Bin was talking here, and a series of slow footsteps came down from upstairs.
The two of them subconsciously looked at the stairs, thinking that Zhang Ming had come down, but it turned out that it was Liang Bin's father who came down.
Since the old man got sick until now, his body has been several times smaller, except for the dry skin bag on the outside, I am afraid that there is only an empty skeleton inside.
Seeing that the old man was a little sick and crooked coming down from above, Han Qing hurriedly greeted:
"Uncle, how are you feeling today?"
"Han Qing is here, I feel okay today, but I feel that these two legs are a little weak."
Seeing Han Qing, the old man's originally gloomy face rarely showed a slight smile.
Speaking of which, Han Qing used to have a very good relationship with the old man, every time the old man cooked something delicious and asked Zhang Ming and his family to come over for dinner, he would let them call Han Qing together.
said that Han Qing is a good child, a good person and a stable person, and will always tell them to maintain this friendship.
Seeing the happy look on the old man's face, Liang Bin couldn't help but say to Han Qing next to him:
"You have to come to my house more often in the future, and my dad will see that you can be happier."
"yes, my uncle likes me the most. Don't worry, uncle, I'll come over as long as I have time. ”
Han Qing smiled at the old man who had already come down the stairs, and the smile on the old man's face seemed to become brighter after hearing this.
Seeing his father smiling, Liang Bin's originally depressed mood was somewhat better.
Waiting for Han Qing to go upstairs to find Zhang Ming, Liang Bin also walked over quickly, wanting to help his father. However, seeing that the old man's eyes had been following Han Qing, as if he was still reluctant to let Han Qing go, and he had something to say to her, seeing this, Liang Bin was busy saying to the side:
"Dad, Han Qing will come over in the next few days, if you still want to chat with her, I will call her down in a while."
"Did I say I wanted to see her?"
The old man turned his face around at this time, and the smile on his face was instantly replaced by resentment, and there was still a little bit of happiness.
Liang Bin was startled by his father's sudden change in expression, and was about to say something, when he heard the old man's voice hoarse and say:
"I hate that woman, don't let that woman come here, it's not a good thing to look at, it makes me sick to see him!"
"Dad, that's Han Qing." Liang Bin was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then said a little unhappily:
"How can you say that?"
"I said what's wrong with her? I just don't like her, I'll tell you again, don't let her come here, let her go! ”
The old man almost roared out this time, and his body fluctuated violently due to the change in mood.
Liang Bin didn't dare to say anything more, but there was a feeling in his heart that he couldn't say it.
It's hard for him to describe this feeling, because he feels that his dad is a little scary, but also a little disgusting, and of course, it's more about his dad's inexplicable disgust.
Obviously, a second ago, his father was still like a kind old man, smiling at the guests who came to the house, but turned around, as if he had changed into a different face.
Yes, it's like a different face!
From an old man with a smile to a devil full of resentment!
The old man didn't know what to do downstairs, and after wandering around the kitchen, he went back upstairs.
Downstairs returned to the dead silence of no one, Liang Bin lit a cigarette, leaned on the sofa uncomfortably, and had the urge to cry out loud.
But in the end, he held back, because even if he did cry, who could he cry to, and what role could it play?
Taotao still can't find it, and his dad still can't recover his health.
Han Qing stayed until 9 o'clock in the evening before leaving, and Liang Bin sent her outside the community to express his gratitude, but just as he was about to turn back, Han Qing stopped him:
"Wait a minute, Liang Bin."
"What's wrong?" Hearing Han Qing call himself, Liang Bin turned his body again.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just want you to accompany Zhang Ming more and enlighten her more. ”
Han Qing wanted to speak and stopped, as if there was something she hadn't said. Liang Bin didn't think too much about it, just nodded in agreement.
Separated from Liang Bin, Han Qing then took a taxi, sat in the taxi, looked at the window that was gradually blurred by the raindrops, and for some reason the words that Zhang Ming had just said to her sounded in her ears:
"Taotao is not lost, he was eaten by his grandfather!
Must have been eaten by that old thing!
Tao Tao is in his belly! ”
