"Senior, where are the ten boys' apartments?" A boy who was about seven or eight meters tall and looked good lowered his head slightly and asked Tao Yao.

Tao Yao took off her hat angrily and looked at the junior with her head held high: "How myopic are you?" ”

The junior brother looked cloudy: "I'm not short-sighted?" ”

"Then you just don't distinguish between male and female!"

The junior brother's face suddenly turned red, and he scratched his head in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, senior sister, I ......"

Tao Yaoyao did not continue to investigate, led the way in front, and led him to the bottom of the ten boys' apartments.

After running for a while, Tao Yaoyao finally exchanged jobs with a boy in the class, tapping on the computer under the awning to enter information for the new students who came to report.

Because of the awning, Tao Xiaoxiao didn't need to wear a hat, and although she had short hair, no one in the freshmen who came to report mistook her for a senior.

There were many new students in the report, and Tao Yaoyao stayed in the awning of the history department until the evening, and when he and his classmates sent the materials back to the college's data storage room and sorted them out, it was already dark when they came out.

"The college has ordered a meal in the food city to reward the staff and volunteers who participated in the orientation activity today, shall we go together?" The boy who was traveling with him asked.

Tao Xiaoyao looked at the time on her phone, and it was about eight o'clock.

"I won't go, the last bus is at nine o'clock, and I won't be able to catch it after dinner."

"Aren't you living on campus?"

"Hmm."

As for the reason, the boy didn't ask, and Tao Xiaoyao didn't mention it.

Tao Xiaoyao's luck was still not good, even though she was waiting at the bus stop at half past eight, but by nine o'clock she still didn't see the last bus to the area where her new home was located.

After waiting for a long time, it was rare to see a taxi, and finally saw one, but the sign on the roof of the car showed "full passengers".

Time passed minute by minute, and she still didn't see a free rental, so she could only call a ride on Didi.

After a while, a white car stopped at the address that Tao Yaoyao had reserved on the Didi taxi app.

The passenger window slowly slid down and opened, and the driver was a middle-aged woman. Goose egg face, willow eyebrows, hair pulled up in the middle, wearing a dark blue professional uniform, tied with black and white striped bow collar flowers, typical white-collar class attire.

She looked at Tao Yaoyao, and a smile appeared on her tired face: "Little girl, was it the car you called just now?" The tone of speech is also very relatable.

"Yes."

"Then get in the car! So as not to worry about coming home late. ”

Tao Yaoyao got into the car, sat in the passenger seat, and fastened his seat belt.

The middle-aged woman started the car.

After midnight, the city roads are not crowded during commuting, and safety is relatively improved.

The female driver was driving while chatting with Tao Yaoyao.

"You are a girl's house, it is very dangerous to go out alone at night, why don't you live in school?"

"There were some unhappy things that happened in the dormitory, so I chose to go home."

"Also, college roommate relationships are quite difficult. Roommates may come from different places, and differences in customs, language, personality, and even life and rest can lead to conflicts. I used to be the same, because I couldn't stand all kinds of conflicts, I wanted to move out for a while, but at that time, my family was poor, and the rent outside the school was too expensive, so I couldn't afford to rent it......"

"yes!" Tao Xiaoyao remembered the months that made her feel so tormented, and she couldn't help but feel the same way as the driver.

It was a little cold at night, but Tao Yaoyao was still wearing the volunteer uniform of the day, and rubbed her arm with goosebumps from the cold from time to time.

"Is it cold?" The driver asked caringly.

Tao Xiaoyao nodded

The driver turned on the heating and air conditioning.

With the warm breeze blowing, there is also a burst of aroma that is not strong or light.

"Sister Zhang, what is this?"

"This is the smell of detergent, when I washed the car before, I accidentally poured more detergent into the position of the air conditioner, and it was not completely washed off, so every time I turned on the air conditioner, there will be a little smell, and it may take several more washes to remove it."

"Oh."

Tao Xiaoxiao didn't think much about it, and after a while, she felt extremely sleepy.

"How long is it left?"

"It's coming, half an hour at most."

"Alright then, I'll take a nap first, and you'll call me later."

“OK。”

However, Tao Xiaoxiao slept for a long time and slept very deeply.

She woke up not in bed, but ...... In an old warehouse.

Her hands and feet were tied, her mouth was gagged with a rag, and the smell of swill filled her nose and mouth, making her nauseous and wanting to vomit but unable to vomit.

However, the swill stench just stimulated her nerves and kept her mind clear.

A middle-aged female driver wearing a white-collar professional uniform, a white Toyota, license plate number NG620, and a hitchhiker number on Didi......

After an unknown time, a few rays of sunlight filtered in through the vents at the top of the wall next to the ceiling. She could barely see the piles of old debris, the messy, locked metal doors.

Hurried footsteps could be heard outside the warehouse, and after a while, the locked metal door was pushed open from the outside, and the bright sunlight shone in from the outside, and the inhalable particles floating in the sunlight could be clearly seen.

Accompanied by the sunshine is a middle-aged man in a neatly cut black suit.

The man's skin is very white, and it can be seen that he has been regularly maintained, but the years have still left marks on his face in different shades. His face is a little fat, crow's feet are faintly visible at the corners of his eyes when he blinks, the bags under his eyes are a little puffy, and his lips are slightly thin, which is a serious face.

Tao Yaoyao thought to herself: This person looks a bit like the temperament of a gangster boss in Hong Kong and Taiwan action movies, but she has never offended people in the aisle in her life.

Could it be the same group of people who kidnapped their parents last time and attempted extortion? She remembered that Yu Wenmu had made their people miserable last time, so wouldn't she be ...... this time

The man's expression changed when he saw Tao Yao being tied up, first probing him, then contemplation, and then a little fear.

The man stepped forward, removed the rag from her mouth with his own hands, and untied the ropes that bound her hands and feet.

Tao Xiaoyao remembered that the "Skynet" column had exposed that a female college student was abducted and trafficked to a remote mountain village and locked in a cellar to give birth to the buyer's older single son.

Although the middle-aged man was neatly dressed and looked like a rich man, he ...... She still refuses in her heart!

As soon as his hands and feet were free, Tao Yaoyao hurriedly avoided him.

Tao Yaoyao spit out several mouthfuls of saliva, trying to get rid of the disgusting taste of swill in her mouth.

The man handed her tissues and water.

After getting the lesson of hitchhiking air conditioner blowing incense, any stranger who may be in contact with his respiratory system and esophagus gives something, Tao Xiaoyao is afraid to take it again.

Seeing that the middle-aged man had no intention of persecuting her, and seeing that there was a clear field outside the warehouse door, Tao Yao tentatively approached the exit.

Suddenly, several bodyguards dressed in all black clothes rushed up, as if building a black human wall, blocking her way.

Tao Yaoyao was very angry, turned around and glared at the middle-aged man angrily, and finally spoke: "Untie me and don't let me go, what do you want to do!" ”

"You shouldn't be talking to me like that." The middle-aged man didn't speak in a stern tone like he looked.

Tao Yaoyao stared at him tightly: "Who are you?" ”

"It seems that she didn't tell you anything."

-

"Xiaoyu, are you there?"

"What's wrong?" Yu Wenmu's heart tightened, and the feeling of suffocation last night hit his heart again.

"She didn't come home all night last night, and the phone couldn't get through, I thought ......"

"I'll find it right away!"

Yu Wenmu hung up the phone, immediately got up from the office chair, picked up the suit jacket hanging next to the file shelf, put it on, and quickly went out.

The Public Security Bureau of N City is busy, the city's Didi taxi is temporarily banned, and the official lanes on the city's roads are busier than usual.

"Mr. Tao, please rest assured, we will do our best to get your daughter back!"

"Ms. Chen, what kind of clothes did your daughter wear when she went out yesterday? Did she tell you where she went? ”

"Yesterday the freshman school of S University started, and she just went to the school as a volunteer. By the way, she was wearing a white loose T-shirt yesterday, with a red volunteer service logo on the left chest of her clothes, and she also wore a red sun hat with a volunteer service logo on it......"

Xu was too nervous about Tao Yaoyao's safety, and when the police asked Tao Ran and his wife about Tao Yaoyao's information, they spoke logically.

"Or else! You give us a photo of your daughter, and we launch a search notice online at the same time. ”

Tao Xiaoyao doesn't like to take pictures, Tao Ran and his wife don't have photos of Tao Yaoyao, and they are going to go home to take photos of the whole family.

"No need!"

At this time, Yu Wenmu, who had not appeared in front of Tao Ran and his wife since he called the police and was blamed by Chen Lihua several times, finally appeared.

Inevitably, Chen Lihua scolded again: "What do you mean?" Is this the attitude you should have? ”

"Uncle, don't worry, I've found Yao." After Yu Wenmu finished speaking to Tao Ran, his eyes turned to Chen Lihua, "Auntie, please take a step to speak." ”

Chen Lihua felt inexplicably uneasy in her heart.

In a conversation room at the police station, only Yu Wenmu and Chen Lihua sat on black public leather sofas, regardless of their rank.

"What do you want to say?" Chen Lihua asked.

Yu Wenmu also got straight to the point: "Auntie, tell me the truth, you have a lot to do with the Bai family, right?" ”

Chen Lihua's expression changed immediately, but she seemed to realize something, and quickly restrained Fang Cai's abnormal expression, pretending not to know: "What do you mean by this?" I don't quite understand, what does this have to do with premature death? Now that you know where the baby is, the most important thing right now is to hurry up and save the baby! And not to say these inconsequential things to me here! ”

Seeing that she didn't admit it, Yu Wenmu didn't continue to ask, but just said: "I was kidnapped, and the Bai family did it." Whether you admit it or not, I'll pick it up myself. After Yu Wenmu finished speaking, he got up and left the conversation room.

Chen Lihua sat slumped on the sofa, her eyes were scattered, her expression was hesitant and entangled, as if she was holding back something.
