Chapter 42: Up the Mountain
Custodian? Xiao Baicai asked the eldest sister suspiciously: "Eldest sister, is there a custody center near here?" ”
"Yes. The shelter is at the foot of the hill behind us, and since it opened, many people have sent it there. The childcare fee is cheap and the kids say the teachers there are very nice. My child also went for a month last month, but because of the illness, it was not delivered. ”
Hearing what the eldest sister said, Xiao Baicai and Jing Yuan looked at each other with certainty.
"Eldest sister, I'll go out first and take a look at the situation nearby."
Xiao Baicai came out of the eldest sister's house, and the two went straight to the custody center with a tacit understanding, Xiao Baicai said. "So many children are missing, maybe Sissi was taken away in the same way."
"According to what the red-eyed female ghost said just now, there must be something wrong with this custodian." Jing Yuan said.
Xiao Baicai came to the gate of the nursery school, and the signboard read "Happy Growth Children's Nursery School". There is a security booth at the gate, and it is an old man in his fifties.
Xiao Baicai dangled around the door, checking the situation inside, it was similar to an ordinary kindergarten, and there were some swings, seesaws, slides and other children's entertainment facilities in the open space after the entrance.
The uncle noticed Xiao Baicai, poked his head out and asked, "Girl, who are you looking for?" ”
"Huh? No, I'm here to take a look, thinking about sending the baby over next month. ”
"Would you like to go in and talk to the teacher? The teacher here is very good. ”
"No need! I'll take a look at it again. Thank you. ”
After that, in order to avoid being too ostentatious, Xiao Baicai hid by the door of the custody center and sat by the wall, anxious about Shen Xinqian. It didn't take long to see a nursery teacher drop a child to the door. The female teacher said to the child, "Little Meng, go home quickly, don't run around!" ”
Xiao Baicai secretly glanced at the female teacher, and was shocked in her heart, this female teacher Yin Tang was black, her lips were purple, and she didn't have any look when she smiled, which seemed to be gentle but exuded an indifferent atmosphere, the point was that there seemed to be black floc faintly behind her. Xiao Baicai didn't dare to look at it again, for fear of attracting the attention of the other party, so he stood up and walked up the mountain.
"Well source! There must be something wrong with that teacher! ”
"We're waiting here, this teacher will always come out and follow her when the time comes." Jing Yuan responded.
While the two were waiting, a male ghost floated in from the front. Jing Yuan squinted his eyes, ouch, hey, ......? Isn't this Lao Lin?!
"Lao Lin!" Jing Yuan yelled at him.
Lao Lin looked around when he heard the sound, and hurriedly rushed over after seeing Jing Yuan, "Nameless? Why are you here. Seeing a human woman next to him, he couldn't help but glance at it a few more times.
Xiao Baicai and Lao Lin looked at each other completely and asked, "Who is this?" Why do you call you nameless? ”
At this moment, Uncle Lin was so scared that he couldn't blink his eyes, "You, you...... You......! How do you see me?! Hurriedly approached Xiao Baicai's side, carefully looked at her if she had a physical body, and suspected that she had become an old flower ghost......
"Hahaha. Lao Lin, this girl has yin and yang eyes, and she can see ghosts. As for him calling me nameless, that's the nickname I used when I was a ghost. I don't remember the name at the time. ”
"There are really yin and yang eyes in this world!" Lao Lin didn't expect to really meet him.
"But Lao Lin, what are you doing here?" Jing Yuan asked.
"Ahh Speaking of which......" Lao Lin looked sad, "my daughter is gone." ”
"Oh my God! Another case of disappearance! ”
Lao Lin said that her daughter never returned home after returning home from school two months ago, and her whereabouts are still unknown. His wife cried every day, and because she was so sad, she fell ill and was hospitalized. Lao Lin was heartbroken and angry, he had been looking for his daughter's whereabouts for two months, and he turned back in every way, and heard that there had been frequent disappearances in this village recently, and he suspected that the same group of people had committed the crime, so he came to investigate.
"We are also tracking missing children. My friend's daughter was taken away today. Xiao Baicai said.
Then there was a mention of the custodianship. While they were talking, it was getting late, and Jing Yuan saw that the big iron gate of the custody center was pushed open, and it was the female teacher he had seen earlier. When she walked out of the iron gate, the security guard greeted her warmly: "Teacher Ma, it's time to get off work!" ”
"Yes. Uncle Wang, pay attention to keeping warm when the weather is cold. I'll go first. See you tomorrow. ”
"I'll see you tomorrow, Mr. Ma!"
Xiao Baicai hid in the shadows and saw this Teacher Ma walking by about five meters from his side. She walked to the narrow road of the village building, Xiao Baicai followed from a distance, and Teacher Ma walked more and more remotely, and began to walk up the mountain, and the animals on the mountain made one after another, high and low chirping, which made people feel cold and scared. Teacher Ma, a woman walking on this dark mountain road like flying, without fear, must be familiar with the road, Xiao Baicai is almost lost. There was a corner slope on the road ahead, and Xiao Baicai was about to turn over, when she suddenly saw Teacher Ma, who was twenty meters away from her, stopped in the dark, and vaguely, she saw a huge square black shadow next to her.
"Dash...... Bang ...... "This sound sounds like opening and closing a car door??" Sure enough, then the engine sounded, and the car was like a black cat, driving freely in the dark without a driving light.
Xiao Baicai, Jing Yuan and Lao Lin were all surprised, there was a car in this black-lit mountain? Can you still open it?! Because the car drove away, Xiao Baicai could only follow the rut marks all the way up, there was a stream of cement on the road, which wet her shoes, because the road was too dark, Xiao Baicai accidentally rolled into the ravine, Jing Yuan shouted in panic: "Baicai!" ”
"Ahh Hmm......" When she fell, she remembered that there might be someone on the mountain, and quickly covered her mouth for fear of alarming the criminals.
Jing Yuan came to her eagerly, and his tone was hurried: "How is it!" Where? Where did it hurt!? ”
Xiao Baicai rubbed her face with her sleeve, and a clear earthy smell wafted into her nose, her face was all black and gray, but the night was too dark to see clearly. The soaking of the stream's shoes exudes a chill on this winter night, as if it hits the heart and lungs.
"It's okay...... I'm fine, it's still ...... You can also walk. "Her knees and the outside of her calves were badly bruised, her skin was peeling, her pants hurt when she rubbed them, and her ankle appeared to be sprained. Jing Yuan saw that she had obviously endured the pain to the point that there were tears in the corners of her eyes, but she still said that there was no problem, smiled helplessly, stretched out her hand to touch her hair, and when she touched a strand of hair, it passed through her fingertips, and then withdrew her hand in a daze.
"Then let's go." Jing Yuan said.
"Hmm!"
Xiao Baicai found a tree trunk to make a cane, and continued to climb with a limp, Lao Lin had already stepped forward to explore the way ahead of them.
At this time, a shout came from afar: "Miss Xiao! Nameless! I see it! Lao Lin was struggling towards them.
Lao Lin said he saw it, "It's an abandoned chemical factory on the mountainside." ”
Xiao Baicai and Jing Yuan led the way by Lao Lin and came to the abandoned factory he said, the iron railing outside was rusty and crumbling, and a tattered Japanese flag was hung on the wall, it seemed that it was a product left over from the last century, and it was certainly not a good place to hide in this deep mountain.
