Jiang Cao looked at the things she handed over, and suddenly thought of the black stone she stuffed into herself when she left Chang'an Village.

She said the stone was stolen from her father, and the next day she was sent to the countryside.

She always thought that her parents didn't want her because she stole things, so she kept the stone and wanted to take it out when her parents came to see her grandmother, so that they would take her home.

Jiang Cao didn't know why she gave the stone to herself, thinking that maybe she had already adapted to the life at that time and didn't need the stone anymore.

Or—

"Brother Cao, can you help me return it to my father? I told him that I would never steal again, that I would not fight with other children, and that I would listen to him and my mother."

deliberately forgot the words, because the strange and familiar face in front of him suddenly appeared.

With great emotion, it told him about the huge and unbearable consequences that he had caused because he didn't care at the time.

Although he may not be able to do anything at that time, he still can't help but feel deep self-blame and guilt.

Guilty.

He used the happiness she gave herself to achieve her sorrow.

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows and said to the person who was standing, "Mr. Jiang, if you want to take it, forget it."

Jiang Cao came back to his senses and saw that he was about to withdraw his hand.

He clenched one hand into a fist, took the kite with the other hand, and said calmly, "I was just thinking about something."

Lin Yu continued to walk forward, passing the time and asking, "What do you want?"

Jiang Cao was silent for half a second and said, "It's afternoon, Siyang and Sixu must be hungry, we should have brought some food with us just now."

"Afraid of starving to death in the forest?"

Lin Yu, who blurted out, paused, and said haha, "I mean, aren't you an expert in hunting? If we really find two children, you can go and hunt a rabbit, and I'll make a fire and roast it."

Roasted a cute bunny in front of a child?

I really don't know if it's the shadow left by the kidnapping is bigger, or the shadow of the roast rabbit is bigger....

Jiang Cao looked at the person who was panicking and didn't say anything.

Lin Yu, who was walking in front, reacted, patted his mouth lightly, and hurried away, deciding not to speak unless necessary.

The two of them, who both have their own concerns, really don't talk anymore.

They followed the horseshoe prints all the way east.

After walking not too far, about four or five kilometers, I faintly heard the cry of a child.

Lin Yu and Jiang Cao both stopped when they heard the crying and looked at each other.

The two of them, who glanced at each other, suddenly ran out at the same time as if they were in a game.

Lin Yu is agile, but the opponent is tall and has long legs, so he can't tell the difference between victory and defeat for a while.

Lin Yu, who was competitive, sped up again, threw off the man who was trying to overtake him, and ran to the broken wooden shed where the crying was getting louder and louder.

She didn't stop, kicked open the aging wooden door, and rushed straight in.

Seeing that she went in like this, Jiang Cao was so nervous that he threw the kite and quickly followed.

By the time he entered the house, the crying had stopped.

The two gray-faced children, with their big watery eyes, looked timidly at their sister who rushed in, especially after seeing their uncle, they were as frightened as birds.

At this time, it was written on the faces of Cheng Siyang and Cheng Sixu, not the joy of being saved, but more like the horror of sneaking out to play, getting lost while playing, crying when lost, and finally being found by adults waiting to be beaten.

Jiang Cao looked at the two panicked children and frowned.

Lin Yu looked at Jiang Cao, who was scared of the child, and said softly, "There are kites outside, you guys go and play."

Play?

Still playing? Won't you get beaten? It hurts when their uncle beats people!

Cheng Siyang is a girl, probably because of the love of her elders since she was a child, and every time she is beaten, she is a younger brother, so she is not so afraid.

She timidly tugged at the hem of her big sister's skirt and burped her and asked cautiously, "Really."

Do you have kites?"

Lin Yu looked at the cute and beautiful little girl full of tears, and nodded. "It's your favorite delta wing, go with your brother."

Cheng Siyang got her words, and looked at the uncle's face smartly.

After making sure that he wouldn't beat herself, she cleverly pulled her brother out and ran out.

Lin Yu waited for the two of them to pay, and turned his head to look at the abandoned wooden shed.

The wooden shed was covered with ash, with cobwebs in the corners, and the space was large and empty, with a pile of planks and a simple wooden bed against the wall.

It looks like a temporary warehouse.

While Lin Yu was looking here.

Jiang Cao glanced at the wooden shed and looked at the girl who looked carefully. "Miss Lin, did you find anything?"

Lin Yu shook his head and looked at the gray and simple floor. "The kidnappers didn't stay here too long, and they didn't seem to have prepared in advance, and it was almost all traces of children crawling around."

There was nothing that had happened recently, not even a food bag, and it was inferred that the kidnapper, who was wearing size 43 shoes, had brought the two children here and walked away.

At this moment, the sound of two children playing outside was heard.

The wooden shed has been deserted for at least two or three years, and it is in the jungle again, and it is still quite dangerous outside.

Lin Yu looked at Jiang Cao, and the two went out tacitly.

Come outside the wooden shed.

Jiang Cao looked at the two children who picked up the kite and giggled and played, and instantly understood why Lin Yu had brought this broken kite with him.

For children who have not been worried about eating and drinking since childhood, they may need a toy to relieve their emotions more than food.

Jiang Cao retracted his gaze and looked at the girl beside him who was clean and beautiful, not stained with a little dust. "Miss Lin, you were too risky just now, what if the kidnappers are inside?"

Lin Yu looked at the two children who laughed quickly and said, "From the moment I saw that kite, I was basically sure that your two nephews would be fine."

"The kite was deliberately left by the kidnappers?"

"If the kidnappers' target is your Jiang family, they will definitely be fully prepared, they must be foolproof to succeed, how could they fall on such an obvious clue."

"Is there anything foolproof?"

"Isn't the kidnapping twelve years ago perfect?"

Twelve years ago, the eldest son and grandson of the Jiang family were kidnapped, and the sky-high ransom of 500 million yuan finally alarmed the whole city and found no kidnappers.

Even today, there is still no progress.

I have to admit that it was a foolproof kidnapping case.

But the conversation on this day was really immoral and impolite.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Lin Yu turned his head to look at him and returned to the topic just now. "Mr. Jiang, it turns out that my analysis is correct, doesn't it?"

The two children, except for a little dirty, were almost intact.

Jiang Xiao bowed his head and looked at his people. "Miss Lin, do you have anything else to advise?"

Lin Yu raised his lips. "Mr. Jiang, do you want me to give you another hexagram?"

"Listen up."

"Your two nephews are not as scared as they imagined, but this is indeed a kidnapping, and it is not dangerous, but it is certainly not a prank."

Jiang Cao thought for a moment. "You mean, the kidnappers had other purposes?"

Lin Yu shrugged his shoulders and was noncommittal. "Mr. Jiang, if I keep talking, it's another cost."
