Chapter 286: Chapter 286: Still Alive
Shi Wu immediately replied, "Don’t transfer the money yet, let me take a look first."
After seeing the message, Lin Xiaoyan sent over the photo of the little girl and told Shi Wu about the missing person video from the girl’s mother.
Five minutes later, Shi Wu’s reply came back.
"This little girl is still alive."
Seeing this message, Lin Xiaoyan breathed a sigh of relief. Being alive meant there was still hope.
Then, Shi Wu continued sending messages, "Yanyan, transfer me 998."
Lin Xiaoyan directly transferred 998 to Shi Wu.
After receiving it, Xuan Shiwu said, "Looking at this child’s features, she was born into a happy family but was taken away at a young age, imprisoned..."
Lin Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment after reading Shi Wu’s message, then asked, "Can I tell the police and let them go rescue her?"
Shi Wu: "The police might not be able to find her. The child has been missing for so long, the police must have searched but still haven’t found her; she’s likely hidden very deeply."
Lin Xiaoyan: "Can you determine where that child is hidden?"
Shi Wu: "No, to find the exact location requires the child’s personal clothing or a relative’s blood."
Upon seeing this, Lin Xiaoyan thought she couldn’t ask Shi Wu to leave E Province to find the child...
Before long, Xuan Shiwu sent another message, "However, if you go, there might be a breakthrough."
Lin Xiaoyan: "Should I go to the little girl’s home?"
Xuan Shiwu: "Yes, maybe using your method you can find the child."
"My method? What method?" Lin Xiaoyan asked.
Xuan Shiwu: "Uh, I don’t know that. Uh, Shiyi is calling me, I need to get busy."
After sending this message, Xuan Shiwu stopped responding to Lin Xiaoyan’s inquiries.
Lin Xiaoyan put down her phone and pondered. Her method? She had no ideas now.
Moreover, she wasn’t sure if she should go...
Lin Xiaoyan picked up her phone, opened the video from the child’s mother, and looked at the IP location, it was in the neighboring province.
She looked at the detailed address where the child went missing.
She unconsciously opened the map, searched for that place, and found it was over 100 kilometers away, close...
Lin Xiaoyan hesitated and messaged He Qi’an to tell him about this matter and ask for his opinion.
He Qi’an had just finished showering when he saw a message from his girlfriend and called her.
"Hello, what are your thoughts? Do you want to rescue that child?"
"I don’t know, Grandpa He and the family are coming over the day after tomorrow..."
Upon hearing this, He Qi’an laughed, "No problem, they’re coming the day after tomorrow, we have a whole day tomorrow. If you want to go, I’ll drive you there now and contact the local police..."
Listening to He Qi’an’s arrangement, Lin Xiaoyan felt like she’d found her anchor, and decided to go!
After He Qi’an finished speaking, he asked Lin Xiaoyan to prepare and they would leave soon.
After hanging up, Lin Xiaoyan immediately packed her things and ran to Nan Xi’s room door to inform her of going out.
She then knocked on her parent’s room door.
"Still awake, Yanyan come in." Her father’s voice came from inside.
Lin Xiaoyan went in and saw her parents half-lying on the bed playing with their phones.
She quickly spoke, "I have two things to tell you. First, I’m going out in a bit to the neighboring province.
Second, Qi An’s family arrives the day after tomorrow.
I’ll try to finish things quickly and return tomorrow."
Lin Xiaoyan spoke so quickly that Lin Fu and Lin Mu hadn’t reacted yet.
He Qi’an was already knocking on the door.
"Who’s here?"
"Qi An!"
Lin Xiaoyan turned to open the door.
Upon hearing He Qi’an was here, Lin Fu and Lin Mu snapped out of it, immediately got up from the bed, and went to the living room.
When He Qi’an saw Lin Xiaoyan opening the door, he softly said, "Don’t rush, there’s still time, pack slowly."
"Okay."
When He Qi’an walked into the living room, he saw Lin Fu and Lin Mu coming out of the room.
"Good evening, uncle and aunt."
Lin Fu looked at his daughter heading back to her room and then at He Qi’an, worriedly asking, "Xiao He, has something happened?"
Lin Mu also looked worried.
He Qi’an reassured them, "No, uncle and aunt, don’t worry. Nothing happened, it’s..."
He Qi’an patiently explained what Lin Xiaoyan wanted to do to Lin Fu and Lin Mu.
After hearing it, Lin Fu and Lin Mu were relieved.
But... they still looked anxiously at their daughter.
Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi had already packed and were ready to leave.
"Is everything ready?" He Qi’an approached, taking the bag from Lin Xiaoyan’s hand.
"Yes."
Lin Xiaoyan looked at her parents, "Mom and Dad, don’t worry, we’ll be back tomorrow." If everything goes well!
"Alright, be careful on the road and stay safe..." Lin Mu reminded.
He Qi’an: "Don’t worry, auntie, with me there, I won’t let anything happen to Yanyan."
Knowing that He Qi’an was also going, Lin Fu and Lin Mu felt slightly relaxed.
After bidding farewell to her parents, Lin Xiaoyan and the others left directly by car.
With only over a hundred kilometers to travel, driving there is quick.
On the road, Lin Xiaoyan looked at her boyfriend, "Did you take leave?"
He Qi’an: "Yes, I told the chief about the situation just now, and he approved.
I’ve been working straight through the New Year, and I’m on leave now."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoyan felt reassured.
Lin Xiaoyan kept thinking about what method to use to find that little girl.
Shi Wu mentioned using her own method...
Her method involves touching people and foreseeing impending bad events.
But the little girl had already fallen victim, and she couldn’t touch her, as the child was missing now.
Even upon reaching their destination, Lin Xiaoyan was still thinking about this.
He Qi’an drove to a small hotel nearby the little girl’s house.
The little girl was lost while playing at her grandmother’s house. This year, she returned with her parents to celebrate New Year with her grandmother. She went missing while playing at their doorstep; her grandmother went inside to grab something, and in just two to three minutes when she came back out, the child was gone.
The grandmother’s house is in a village, and it’s late at night now, so Lin Xiaoyan and the others had to find a place to stay first.
He Qi’an booked two adjacent rooms, then took Lin Xiaoyan upstairs to discuss the plans for tomorrow.
The hotel in the town doesn’t frequent guests, and upon opening the room door, there’s a musty smell.
He Qi’an frowned upon seeing the environment and said, "I’ll go check elsewhere for a cleaner hotel."
Lin Xiaoyan glanced at the room, saw a thick layer of dust on the table, an unpleasant odor from the bathroom, and probably the bedding hasn’t been changed for a long time.
"Okay, if there’s no place to stay, we can manage the night in the car as well." Lin Xiaoyan thought there might not be many hotels in this small town.
Nan Xi agreed.
He Qi’an nodded and said alright.
