The weather was fine on August 2, 2019

1.4 billion people, everyone is like a speck of dust.

Many people spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on the way to find their relatives, looking for them from city to city, town to town across the country, and they don't know if they can find it after emptying all their families, and the hope is too slim.

Shu Dongren is weak and has no deposits, in addition to filing with the police, she has also registered information on many websites.

Most websites charge a fee, more than 10,000 yuan, but they only help forward information, and it is unknown whether they can be found.

But Shu Dong has no other way, her financial ability can't support her to find it all over the country, although she has not given up, but what she has done does not seem to stir up any waves in the ups and downs of fate.

Shu Dong didn't sleep all night, and he seemed to be half-asleep and half-awake.

At six o'clock in the morning, the early morning light came through the gap in the curtains, and it was not real in a trance, Shu Dong picked up his mobile phone and looked at it, there was no phone, no news......

Everything seems to be broken.

Lifting the quilt to cover her red and swollen eyes, she lay weakly on the bed, and it wasn't until Officer Liu, who answered her yesterday, called that Shu Dong got up groggy.

"Didn't you sleep well last night?" Unlike Officer Wang, Officer Liu is very young, in his twenties and thirties, revealing the handsomeness of a southern boy.

"It's fine." Shu Dong's mental state was not very good, the redness and swelling of his eyes did not go away, and he did not have the joy of finding his family immediately.

"Don't worry, just in case we're going to do another DNA comparison, and then call the people out and let's have a meeting together and go through all the clues again." Although Officer Liu has not worked for a long time, he has seen a lot of such cases, most of these children are a little autistic, and he thinks that Shu Dong is worried about the outcome.

"Thanks, sorry for your trouble." Shu Dong smiled, his expression was not very natural.

The corners of Officer Liu's mouth were slightly raised, and he looked tall in a police uniform, so he didn't greet Shu Dong politely, and took her to the side of the road where she parked.

"Fasten your seatbelts, let's go to the hospital now." Officer Liu started the car, looked at the rearview mirror and hit the steering wheel, wanting Shu Dong to ease his mood while chatting with her, "Hecheng is quite far away, will you come back in the future?" ”

This is Shu Dong's first time in Jiangcheng, and in her consciousness, Jiangcheng is now just a destination, not a home.

"Maybe we have to decide when the results come out." I don't know how far the guest house is from the hospital, as time passed, Shu Dong turned out to be a little nervous.

"There will be results in a week or so, if you are not in a hurry to go back, you can stay in Jiangcheng for a while." In the morning rush hour at nine o'clock, the road was a little congested, Officer Liu turned his head and looked at Shu Dong, "Jiangcheng is very beautiful this season, but there are a lot of people." ”

"Okay, thank you." I could feel his kindness, but Shu Dong was not used to chatting with people so well.

Jiangcheng is indeed very beautiful, a very famous tourist city in the country, with both the prosperity of the city and the tranquility of the town. Shu Dong is not a person who is good at planning, but when she first thought that Song Feng would come with her, she checked a lot of information.

Seeing the girl's absent-minded expression in the rearview mirror, Officer Liu was thoughtful, he had seen many people looking for relatives, most of them were excited, but she ...... At first, I thought she was a bit autistic, so she was silent, but it didn't seem like that.

Based on Officer Liu's understanding of the incident, her family in Hecheng ...... The bonds are not very deep.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" Officer Liu looked ahead and asked casually.

Shu Dong was stunned, and his eyes swept out of the window: "No." ”

His mind was completely occupied by Song Feng, and Shu Dong didn't realize the strangeness of this question.

It didn't take long to get to the hospital, just opened the car door, the wind swept the heat wave in the face, Jiangcheng is near the sea, it is not too hot in summer, but the air humidity is very high, sticky and tidal, Shu Dong is not very used to it.

There were people waiting outside the hospital, a couple and a child.

When Hecheng received a call from Officer Wang for the first time, Shu Dong knew the other party's family background, two junior high school teachers, the man was gentle with glasses, had a slight beer belly, the woman was well-dressed and not too ostentatious, and there was a quirky boy......

A few meters away, Shu Dong looked at the three people opposite, his palms were sweaty, and the three people were also looking at her, compared to Shu Dong's forbearance and restraint, the woman was so excited that there were tears in the corners of her eyes, tightly holding the arm of the man next to her, her face was full of fear, self-blame and remorse, and huge expectations.

Their gaze was too eager, Shu Dong moved her eyes slightly, and her gaze fell to the ground, although her face was calm, the waves in her heart had already risen layer after layer.

Is it really her family?

Hands clenched tightly, strange and familiar feelings do not know whether it is a haunt in the heart or an invisible implication.

"This is Shu Dong, this is Teacher Li and Teacher Dong." Officer Liu parked the car and came to a few people and made a brief introduction, "Let's go, let's go in first." ”

"Xiao Liu, I'm really bothering you during this time." The woman walked behind and leaned closer to Shu Dong, speaking in a nasal voice.

"It's all we have to do, as long as the end result is okay, it's worth it." Officer Liu said with a smile, he glanced behind him twice, "Dongdong and Teacher Dong really look alike." ”

"I look very similar," the man echoed, his eyes following Shu Dong all the time, "When I saw the photo at the beginning of the month, I was ...... I think so. ”

Shu Dong smiled, not knowing what to say.

However, in the eyes of others, this silence turned into alienation, and Mr. Dong looked at the girl next to him, and his heart was full of self-blame.

The year before last, Shu Dong's DNA was entered into the gene bank, and there has been no news for the past two or three years, she thought that her family was relatively closed and did not understand this, and did not store the DNA sample in the database, so it has not been matched for a long time......

Shu Dong has fantasized many times about what his family does, what his father looks like, and whether his mother has long hair or short hair...... And the family in front of her, she couldn't believe that this might be her parents.

may be looking for so many years to empty out the family, they dress very simple and plain, but they invisibly exude excellent self-cultivation, and she, a person who has not studied since graduating from junior high school......

The little boy next to him has been looking at Shu Dong, and Shu Dong noticed it, and the information said that he was 12 years old this year, 8 years younger than her, and Shu Dong was lost when he was 4 years old. Many families will have a new child when they are most broken, as a comfort and hope to continue their lives, and it is rare that after they have a child, they have not forgotten to continue to look for their lost daughter.

Another DNA test was done for final confirmation. In the afternoon, the Jiangcheng police and Officer Wang connected and docked the progress of the case and reconfirmed the clues over the years.

It seems that there is no problem in all links, just waiting for the final test results.

After everything was over, Shu Dong was about to go back to the guest house, but Teacher Dong came to her.

"Dongdong, is it the first time to come to Jiangcheng? Let's have dinner together tonight, shall we? The woman's forehead slid down a strand of broken hair, which must have been very gentle on weekdays, but now looking at Shu Dong's eyes, they are very bright, exuding a strong maternal brilliance, and revealing a bit of tenacity.

She desperately wanted to get acquainted with Shu Dong and wanted to compensate her.

Shu Dong paused as she packed her bag, she was not good at contact with strangers, although it might be her family in front of her......

They were very excited, why not Shu Dong? Her only wish to grow up is to find her family, and what is standing in front of her is found by the police through many difficulties, and all the clues can be matched, how can she not look forward to it?

However, after going through so much, Shu Dong has become more and more tenacious and calm.

Judging by previous experience, the greater the hope, there will be exponential disappointments waiting behind you, crushing you.

So until the genetic test results come out, don't give the other party too much hope, it's good for everyone.

"It just so happens that we are in the summer vacation now, and we have a lot of time, so we can go shopping together in Jiangcheng or surrounding cities." The man saw Shu Dong hesitate, thinking that she had held a grudge against them for so many years, so he hurriedly spoke.

Their eyes were full of eager anticipation, Shu Dong was very familiar with this kind of feeling, and he couldn't say anything about refusal. Even if the final result is not, then at this moment, let's comfort each other.

Not only them, but also Shu Dong himself.

"Okay, that's troublesome." Shu Dong said with a smile.

Hearing her agree, the couple breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister, I'll help you get the bag." The little boy next to him hurriedly took Shu Dong's bag.

Shu Dong was stunned, the word sister reached her ears, it was a little hot, this was not the first time she had heard others call her sister. In Hecheng, Jeongwoo will also call her, but I don't know why, it feels very different.

The husband and wife watched them talk, very relieved, and the tear ducts seemed to be out of control again.

"Xiao Liu go to dinner with us, it's been hard these days." Teacher Li turned to look at Officer Liu and said.

"I still have a job here, so I won't disturb your family's meal." Officer Liu sent them out and took one last look at Shu Dong.

After dinner, Aunt Dong said to let her go back to their house, but Shu Dong politely refused. Sixteen years of the transition from stranger to family were missing, and although everyone was eager to fill the gap, it was not what was to be done at the moment.

In the sixteen years since he was lost, this is the closest Shu Dong has come to the truth, all the clues are consistent, and there are such gentle parents......

Shu Dong was looking forward to it more than he imagined, and he was calmer than he imagined.

She had to tell herself that no matter how accurate the clues were now, she would wait for the test results. Only when genetic testing is that they are indeed her parents, Shu Dong will accept, be excited, and resentful......

That's right, Shu Dong is faintly resentful in his heart, human traffickers are indeed extremely evil, but why don't parents take good care of their four-year-old child......

I didn't sleep well last night, my head was dizzy and painful, Shu Dong lay on the bed and rubbed his eyebrows.

She really wanted to share today's events with Song Feng, or Chen Hui, or Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhou, but after she left, it was as if she had lost contact with that city forever.

No one asked her, no one contacted her......

Shu Dong smiled bitterly, people are like this, they thought they would have no nostalgia, but they were always in this city, thinking about another city.
