Xiaobin is gone
"Jingle bellโ"
The two people who were sitting on the sofa and snuggling up to watch a movie were startled by the sudden ringing of their mobile phones.
Shen Congjie saw that his mobile phone was vibrating and picked it up.
Seeing that the number showed that it was Shanshan, Shen Congjie thought that they should still be eating at the hotel at this time!
"Hey!" Shen Congjie leaned on the sofa and picked up the phone.
"Brother Kangkang, where are you now? Come back soon, the little orange is gone! The girl's eager voice came from the other end of the phone.
Tian Tian leaned on Shen Congjie's arms, and the voice on the other end of the phone was loud, Tian Tian also heard it and immediately sat up.
"Xiaobin is gone? How could he be gone? Tian Tian heard that Xiaobin was gone, and immediately anxious to understand the situation.
Yuan Shanshan, who was on the other end of the phone, heard the woman's voice on the phone, her heart was suddenly stabbed, and the fingers holding the phone turned white because of the force.
"Brother Kangkang, I'm so scared, he ran out in anger, everyone is looking for me... I'm not bothering you, but I'm really worried that the little orange is so small and angry that it's gone..."
Yuan Shanshan's crying voice came, which could make people feel her delicate and worried.
"Don't be afraid, have you checked the surveillance? Since you're in the hotel, the security department will send someone to look for you, so I'll call and ask! โ
Shen Congjie frowned, but he didn't worry much about Xiaobin's safety, this little guy is a clever ghost, and he grew up here, and he knows both the hotel and the road.
Hearing that he was going to hang up the phone, but didn't say that he wanted to come and see, Yuan Shanshan bit her lip and shouted to him a little anxiously.
"Brother Kangkang, why don't you come and take a look? Aunt Meiyun is about to cry! โ
"I'll go over and take a look right away, there should be no problem, let them rest assured!"
Shen Congjie heard that his family was crying urgently, and he was suddenly a little nervous, knowing that Xiaobin ran out in a negative mood, with his ghostly and clever character, he wanted to hide and not let others find him...
Thinking about it this way, his familiarity will make it difficult for everyone to find him!
"I'll call and ask!" Shen Congjie hung up the phone after speaking, got up and called the assistant and asked him how he was looking now!
"Kangkang... Brother..."Before Yuan Shanshan's anxious words were finished, the phone was hung up, and when she heard the beeping sound in the mobile phone, she had no choice but to hang up the phone!
However, when I thought that Kang Kang Ge was definitely not in the mood to fall in love now, I felt that my mood had improved.
Tian Tian and Shen Congjie were really not in the mood to watch a movie, and when they saw him going downstairs with the car keys, Tian Tian also followed him to look for it.
"If you don't feel comfortable staying at home, I'll go look for it, and I'll call you as soon as I have news!"
"I'm really fine, Xiaobin is gone, how can I sit at home and wait for news!"
Tian Tian can't sit and wait for news, he will be restless if he stays like this, now it's dark, if he can't find anyone, who can guarantee that nothing will happen!
"Our people are out looking for it, you stay here and wait for news, what if that kid runs away to look for you?"
"It's so far away, isn't it missing in the hotel?"
Tian Tian thought that although Xiaobin was ten years old, he was usually sent by car, and he walked from home to school, and he was picked up and dropped off at home when he came to the store.
Aunt Chen said that it was too naughty, and someone had to take him to the amusement park, so she was afraid that he would run out alone and go crazy and not come back!
Therefore, Tian Tian has never seen Xiaobin run out to play alone, and when the store is busy, he also obediently sits upstairs playing games and doing homework!
"Don't underestimate him, he ran away from home once when he was five years old, and everyone looked for him the whole time, and he finally found him in the playground, he was very smart, I went to see what happened, and came back to tell you if it was okay!"
So this is also the reason why Chen Meilian didn't allow him to run out alone, he was too bold!
"Then you go quickly, I'll wait here for your news, and if he really comes, I'll call you to tell you!"
Tian Tian nodded, the place where Xiaobin stayed the most was at home and here, and it was indeed very possible!
Shen Congjie hugged her and kissed her, touched her face and comforted:
"Don't worry, he'll be fine, you stay in the store and wait for me to come back, don't run out to find it alone, I'm more worried about you getting lost than worrying about him getting lost!"
Xiaobin was born and raised here, Tian Tian has only been here for a short time, plus he is beautiful and his accent is not local, if he goes out at night, he will be more worried!
"Okay, I'm not going to wait here for you to come back, you go and take a look, remember to tell me if you have news, I'll wait for you to come back!"
Tian Tian nodded and urged him to hurry up and find someone, the later it dragged on, the more dangerous it became.
Shen Congjie nodded and drove away, Tian Tian stood on the steps waiting for news, looking at many old people on the side of the road burning paper money.
The paper money burning in the night swirled and flew in the night wind, and the air was filled with the smell of burning incense and burning paper money.
In this city of alternating old and new, there are fashionable buildings with neon lights and modern technology, as well as the traces of the old precipitation where she is standing now.
Many of the old people living in this part of the old city still maintain the tradition of burning incense on the side of the street to worship, Tian Tian looked at the people burning incense on the side of the road, and then looked at the shops behind him.
She pulled out a bag of paper money from the store, her face flashing with struggle and hesitation, once she lit it to worship her parents, it proved that she really recognized that her parents were dead.
However, grandpa has never mentioned worship for so many years, at most she has asked her to burn it for her grandmother, and he has never mentioned to her that she wants to worship her parents.
People here say that her parents are dead, and there are graves and tombstones, but they also say that no one has ever seen a corpse, so how can it be considered dead if they have not seen a corpse?
However, if he did not die, why was there no news in the past 20 years?
Tian Tian looked down at the paper money she secretly bought, this was the first time she had bought this kind of thing, looking at the paper money that came out of the plastic bag.
Suddenly, water stains fell on the plastic bag, these were Tian Tian's tears, she squatted on the ground and didn't know why, and suddenly she wanted to cry!
Tears rolled across his face and dripped on the plastic bag, and the boss who sold paper money said that the purpose of burning paper money was to make the dead relatives live well, and let the living people worship with one more thought.
She didn't know what she bought one for and said she was coming back for, but she just squatted on the ground and cried tired, so she sat on the steps and hugged the plastic bag in a daze.
In the end, the night wind blew with the smell of burning paper money and soot, Tian Tian looked at the paper money ash rolling in the wind on the ground and carrying sparks, and got up and went to the kitchen to find an iron bucket.
She opened the plastic bag and took out the matchbox, which contained paper money wrapped in white paper with the names of people written on it.
This was written by Tian Tian herself, in addition to worshipping her grandmother, there are also the names of Tian Fei and Bai Wei, which Tian Tian only learned from here.
She followed the example of the roadside, lit the paper money on the fire and put it in the iron bucket, and sat on the steps of the door to watch the fire burn in the bucket.
Looking at the whole process of the fire from small to large, from prosperous to extinguished, I suddenly feel that this is what it means for people to die like lights out!
Those who leave can't come back, and those who stay continue to live in addition to nostalgia.
There are times in life when you have to have it, and there is no time in life when you have to ask for it!
Perhaps, she is destined not to enjoy the love of her parents, she doesn't remember the previous memories at all, and she can only touch the people in the photo with her hands, and she can't feel the temperature!
Tian Tian sat on the steps and put the paper money in to burn it, the tears on her face dried on her face, her skin was a little tight, she watched the fire in the bucket burn expressionlessly, and threw it in little by little, not knowing what she was thinking.
At this time, a car stopped in front of her, she looked up and saw Xiaobin in the car, and when she saw her, she got out of the car crying and ran towards her with her hands open.
"Xiaobin?" Tian Tian jumped up and ran to pick him up.
"Sister Tian Tian..." Xiaobin hugged her and began to cry, looking so pitiful.
Seeing that he really came to find him in the car, Tian Tian didn't know whether to say that he was smart or naughty, everyone was looking for him to die in a hurry!
"Beauty, you are his family, please pay attention next time, it is dangerous to let a small child run around the street at night!"
The driver got out of the car and saw the two hugging each other, it seemed that they were indeed acquaintances, and this girl was so beautiful that she didn't look like a trafficker.
He still got out of the car and told him, and a child rushed out to stop the car at night and scared him to death!
Seeing that the other party was not very old, I thought that the adults in the sister and brother's family were not there, and the children were greedy to play and ran out and got lost!
"Thank you, master, for sending my brother back, I'll give you how much the fare is!"
Tian Tian saw that the other party was a taxi driver, and immediately stepped forward to pay the bill, touched his body without a wallet, ran back to the store, took the money and a bottle of water, ran out and handed it to him from the car window.
"No, don't have so much!"
The driver originally planned to ask the parents to pay, but when he saw the sister and brother thinking about it again, he thought about it as a good deed, and when he saw her running in, he got in the car and prepared to leave!
"You take it, just thank you for sending my brother back, thank you, master!"
Tian Tian hugged Xiaobin and said to the driver.
"I'll send it away, or he stopped my car himself, the money will be found for you, and I will accept the water, children, don't run on the road next time, it's very dangerous!"
The driver still gave her the change, told her a word, and drove away!
