Chapter 209: Change
Su Xiaomu has almost prepared everything, and the time is the twenty-third day of the lunar month.
It would take several days for Fucheng to return to the village, and in order to be able to get home at the twenty-eighth, Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng both decided to leave early tomorrow morning.
Can it be ...... Su Xiaomu found that Gu Ruonan was gone.
"I heard that she hasn't come back so late, and you told me she was hanging out outside?"
"It's not a New Year's Day now, there is a curfew in Fucheng, why can she stay outside for so long? And can you avoid the night watchman, and there is no one to see at this time? ”
Su Xiaomu stared at Zhao Mu's face and sank, even though she was usually gentle and gentle, and she was very easy to talk, but now like this, it also made people feel very scared, and they didn't dare to raise their heads to look at her.
"A few days ago...... Miss Gu also came back so late a few days ago, maybe today is the same as before, and she will come back after waiting for her. ”
Zhao Mu knew in his heart that it was really a little late this time, but he still had a fluke mentality, he felt that Gu Ruonan was such a smart girl, even if she encountered any danger, she should have the ability to save the day.
Zhao Mu kept making excuses for herself in her head, but Su Xiaomu only felt uneasy at this moment, she didn't know why she always felt that something bad would happen.
Her heart was pounding in her chest, and the uneasy emotions lingered around her, making her feel the urge to vomit.
Su Xiaomu forcibly held back the discomfort: "Call Zhao Lin and ask him to go to the yamen to report Gu Jingcheng's name, just say that his sister is lost and can't be found, let a few catchers help find someone, and you ......"
Su Xiaomu suddenly thought of Yuan Yi in his head, if it was about collecting information, there should be no one in Fucheng who knew more than the beggars begging on the streets.
Moreover, there are many little beggars in the broken temple, whether it is asking them to find someone or helping to find out the news, they are faster than them and better than them.
"You go to find Yuan Yi, he has seen Gu Ruonan, I will draw a portrait later, you take this and tell him to ask him to help find Ruonan, and by the way, ask him again, what has happened in Fucheng recently."
Su Xiaomu has been busy with the New Year's affairs in recent days, and he doesn't know much about other things.
"Yes."
Zhao Mu saw that Su Xiaomu was so serious and anxious, and he couldn't deceive himself in a good way.
Now he only hopes that nothing has happened to Gu Ruonan, otherwise he will be guilty of everything!
Su Xiaomu arranged for everyone to go down, and she waited for news at home alone.
She didn't plan to tell anyone about this, Gu Ruonan was Gu Jingcheng and Gu Feng's family after all, one was a niece and the other was a daughter, if something really happened, the two of them would be very sad.
So...... Su Xiaomu hoped that Gu Ruonan was really just as Zhao Mu said, because he was greedy for a while and forgot the time.
Zhao Lin quickly found the head catcher, and by the way, brought Su Xiaomu a desperate news that she expected.
"The people of the Yamen said that the city has been in turmoil recently, and two days ago, a group of thieves entered the city while it was snowing, and when they took advantage of the front Yamen to give porridge and open the city gate to relieve the people, they robbed a group of people out of the city, and today they seem to be coming again......"
"What do you mean?" Su Xiaomu's eyes widened in shock, and he said in disbelief, "Ruonan is likely to be among those people who were robbed?" ”
"I'm not sure now, but before us, many people have gone to the yamen to say that someone in their family is missing, and the head catcher said that even if we don't go to them, they will start looking for someone today."
When Zhao Lin said this, his face was extremely unsightly.
Because he knew that Su Xiaomu had entrusted Miss Gu to his younger brother, and if she really lost it this time, all the blame would be on Zhao Mu alone.
He...... Why can't you be with her...... What about losing them together?
This dark thought flashed through Zhao Lin's heart for a moment, but when he looked up and looked at Su Xiaomu, he pressed all such thoughts away.
"Although they want to find someone, but we can't be idle, you tell Zhao Mu, let him bring someone, and we will go with them to find it."
Su Xiaomu said yes, and immediately beckoned someone to go to Gu Ruonan together.
Yuan Yi took the movable beggars in the ruined temple and followed him to find people in the city.
"After everyone got better these days, they began to beg along the streets one after another, and many people found the thieves, and they went to the east mountain with a lot of heavy things this afternoon, if they really lost a lot of people, then it is very likely that those people were packed in those heavy boxes."
Yuan Yi is a clever young man, and he wants to repay Su Xiaomu's kindness, so he obeys her orders and solves them for her.
After receiving her order, he sent someone to investigate the whereabouts of the thief clearly.
Whoever calls them these people has no other ability, but they are good at being ignored by others.
After all, who would notice a beggar begging for food on the side of the road, or in the current situation after the catastrophe, when there are displaced people everywhere?
Yes, although the damage to their capital city in the snow disaster is not very serious, but who called the surrounding counties serious, they all came to them for refuge?
Isn't there more people who come and go?
"...... in the east" Su Xiaomu thought about the place in his heart, and immediately told Zhao Lin after having a little impression in his head, "Tell Liu Zhutou the news and ask him to take people and us to search the mountains together." ”
"But the source of the news has not been completely determined for the time being, and the number of people in the search for the mountain is not enough, and the few people in Liu Zhutou's hands are not enough, this matter still has to be reported to the county order, so that he can arrange talents."
Zhao Lin frowned, he felt that Su Xiaomu was a little too anxious, and he lost his senses: "Shall we go and find the county order?" ”
"Prefectural Order...... It's so late, and it's not like we're looking for it. ”
Su Xiaomu had a black face and was anxiously pacing in place.
She keeps building her mind, it's useless to be anxious, and she still has to find a way to solve the problem.
Now there is no way to continue to hide from Gu Jingcheng, with her identity, there is no way to go to the yamen to find the county order at such a late hour, so she still has to ask Gu Jingcheng to come forward.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaomu asked Zhao Mu and Zhao Lin to take the beggars brought by Yuan Yi to rest in the dessert shop.
When they did not eat at night, they prepared hot water and charcoal fire to ward off the cold.
She was free by herself and went to report the bad news to Gu Jingcheng.
In the study.
Gu Jingcheng sat on the edge of the bed, it was already winter, the cold wind was cold, and every wind that blew through him would make his cold hair stand up, and his eyebrows and eyes wrinkled slightly.
But he didn't seem to feel it, or he wasn't afraid of the cold, and he was very safe by the window.
