Chapter 120: Adopting Xiaoqi
"And then you're going to do it?"
"What?" This is the second time Li Dongliao has asked something.
"After I tell the adults about it, will they help me get revenge?" Xiaoqi asked.
"Uh......" Li Dongliao half-opened his mouth before saying after a while, "I will probably warn them verbally not to do that." β
"That's why I say, adults are naΓ―ve." Xiao Qi pushed Li Dongliao's body away and put his hand on the doorknob, "If it were me, I would believe in the statement that one report will be reported again, and goodbye Mr. Policeman." β
After Xiao Qi finished speaking, he pushed the door and left the toilet, disappearing from Li Dongliao's sight.
Xiao He stood at the door with a notebook in his hand, and waited for a long time to see the dejected Li Dongliao.
"What's going on, Officer Lee?" Xiao He asked.
I saw Li Dongliao waving his hand, hanging his head and saying, "I was just told naΓ―ve by a child...... Forget it, let's go back......"
In the evening, because the police station had already identified the biggest suspect as Wang Mei, no victims were found in the surrounding area.
Before finding Wang Mei, other things can't be rushed, and they can't be pushed forward.
Wanted photos have been sent out on a large scale, unless Wang Mei stays in the mountains for the rest of her life.
Otherwise, as long as Wang Mei goes to a crowded place, she will be recognized immediately.
Now that the wanted notice has been sent out, you can't rush to find someone, you can only wait for news slowly.
"Xiao He, let's get off work first." Li Dongliao packed up his things and prepared to withdraw.
Before leaving, I received a phone call from Tan Late, who asked about what happened today and how things were going.
Li Dongliao told Tan Wan about going to meet the new dean today, and when it came to the back, he also mentioned the strange child.
"By the way, the kid you talked about on the phone before, I happened to bump into it today~"
"Which kid?" Tan Wan took the Dandong strawberry handed by Steward Yang, put it in his mouth and asked while chewing.
"Just that little Qi, the kid who transferred from the Hearts Orphanage."
Hearing the word Xiaoqi, Tan Wan was stunned.
Then he asked, "How is he, is there anyone to take care of him in a particular situation like his?" β
After Tan Wan knew that Xiaoqi was a dwarfism patient, he subconsciously classified him into the situation of a disabled person in his mind.
In addition, in the Red Heart Orphanage that day, Xie Mowen's series of reactions after knocking down Xiao Qi made Tan Wan feel that Xiao Qi's mental state was not very good.
Dwarfism and Xiaoqi, who is not in good spirits, used to be taken care of by Wang Mei, but now that Wang Mei is gone, I don't know if he is suitable for the new environment alone.
"I don't think he needs to be taken care of." Li Dongliao clipped the phone between his head and shoulders and passed by a barbecue stall, "Boss, I want five skewers of mutton and five skewers of roasted chicken hearts, plus a tin foil roasted enoki mushroom, heavy and spicy, thank you!" β
The sound of barbecue stinging came from the mobile phone that day, and there was a noise in Tan Wan's ears: "Who are you talking to??" β
"Get a barbecue to eat, I don't have time to eat lunch, I'm hungry until now." Li Dongliao coped with both ends.
"What you said about Xiaoqi before, I didn't hear clearly." Tan Wan lay on the sofa, changed his posture and asked again.
"Oh, I saw him being bullied by two kids today, and I wanted to help him.
And guess what they said to me? β
"What?" It's also quite curious to talk about the night.
"Call me naΓ―ve." Li Dongliao retold according to his recollections, "He also said that if it were him, he would believe in the statement that one report will be repaid."
I didn't expect that after living for so many years, I would have to be reprimanded and educated by a child, which is really humiliating. β
Tan Wan faintly felt strange, Xiao Qi didn't look like someone who would say such things.
In order to explore the reason, Tan Wan asked him to repeat it: "What were the original words of the two of you at that time, you tell me." β
Li Dongliao didn't know what to do, you want to take this opportunity to mock me again?" β
"Seriously, say it again."
Tan Wan's tone was very stern, and he couldn't tolerate any hip-hop.
Li Dongliao was shocked by her tone, and described the situation carefully and carefully.
He reminisced very carefully, starting with his urgency to go to the toilet and ending with it.
In the middle, in order to make the conversation more immersive, he also added a lot of onomatopoeia.
After saying that, his mouth was dry, and he stopped with a long sigh of relief: "That's it." β
He held the skewer in one hand and his phone in the other, quietly waiting for the other party's response.
On the other end of the phone, Tan Wan did not speak after listening, but sat there silently.
Li Dongliao didn't dare to disturb when he saw this, so he waited quietly.
The wind blew in front of him, bringing a smell of barbecue, and Li Dongliao couldn't smell it, and his heart was very itchy.
After a while, Tan Wan slowly spoke: "I need your help with something." β
"What?" Li Dongliao felt uneasy.
Generally speaking, when the word 'help' is said at night, it is usually not a good thing.
"Before I find Wang Mei, I can't let Xiaoqi stay alone in that kind of place unattended."
Speaking of this, Tan Wan paused: "I need him to live in your house." β
"That'...... How does that one work! Li Dongliao was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and then he was startled.
He originally thought that he would ask him to help investigate Wang Mei's whereabouts, but he was asked to help take care of the children.
"What, is this difficult?" On the other end of the phone, there was a voice talking about the evening Bingbing.
"What's the matter with me living with that kid, and you want me to adopt him?" Li Dongliao was at a loss.
"Not adoption, but I'm going to make sure you stay with him 24 hours a day."
"Boss, can I ask why?" Li Dongliao has nothing to love, "At least let me know the reason." β
The voice on the other end of the phone continued to talk about the night: "Because Li Jue will definitely not let him live in the manor." β
Hearing this, Li Dongliao was stunned for more than five seconds.
He kept thinking about the connection, Li Jue didn't let that child live, what does it have to do with living in his house?
"Does that matter, Boss?"
At this point, the kebab in Li Dongliao's hand, which was still oily, was crumpled by the wind at the moment.
"About the murder." Tan Wan didn't reveal much, and said again, "This is an order." β
Hanging up the phone, Li Dongliao felt that his spirit had been baptized from top to bottom.
After standing in the cold wind for more than ten minutes and struggling in his heart for a long time, Li Dongliao made up his mind.
He turned on his phone again and dialed Xiao He's phone number: "Hey Xiao He, go to the director of the orphanage just now and say that I want to adopt a child named Xiao Qi." β
