Chapter 11 third chapter

However, I really don't know where to start. When I asked Xiaoyi which direction her home was in, she would just say that she didn't know. There were no pedestrians on the road at this time, and there was no way to find witnesses for information. The only information provided by Xiaoyi , that is, there is a park near home. "I don't think children can travel too far." "How far can a child of this age go?" "My sister's child is four years old, and he needs to be hugged after walking a few steps." "Well……" The Nanguang area where we live is a quiet emerging residential area to the east, with rows of new houses. The police and I first took a police car to the supermarket where we found Xiaoyi, looking for parks within a radius of one kilometer, but the parks vary in size. , It took a lot of effort just to find it, and no matter which park I went to, I asked Xiaoyi if it was nearby, Xiaoyi would just say that she didn't know.

After searching, Xiaoyi suddenly calmed down and began to sleep soundly. She was really helpless now. "Maybe it came from a farther place?" "She is still so young, how can she walk several kilometers?" "But seeing her so tired, maybe she has traveled farther than we thought..." Having said that, I am also very sleepy now, maybe Xiaoyi just wants to sleep because she got up too early, which makes me helpless. "Hmm... Do you want to expand the scope a little bit?" The police asked for my opinion, but it was still unreliable. "I can't help it..."

Now I have to find a reliable person.It's not easy to find someone at such a time, and you have to be reliable. Even if I have a thousand reluctances in my heart, I can only find "that person". "Is it convenient to go to my friend's house?" "Your friend? Are there children at home?" "No, but you should be able to see the clue." That's right, Ms. Sakurako should be able to perceive things that I can't. Since the road was deserted, it took about ten minutes to arrive at Ms. Yingzi's bungalow. Looking at the watch, her mother-in-law should have woken up at 5:30 in the morning, but she didn't make an appointment in advance, so it was really inconvenient to disturb her at this time.I hesitated in front of the doorbell for a while, thinking that there was no other way, I had come all the time, and I couldn't just return empty-handed.

Suddenly a group of people coming to the door would cause trouble for others, and I was afraid that the police car would attract the attention of other policemen, so I asked the policeman and Xiaoyi who was sleeping to stay in the police car first, but I couldn't let the two of them wait too long. I made up my mind to ring the doorbell, but no one opened the door, so I had to press it again. After a while, someone opened the door. I thought it was my mother-in-law, but it was Miss Yingzi who opened the door. "What's the noise in the early morning!" "Sorry to bother you so early..."

Ms. Sakurako seemed to be in a bad mood, and she was upset when she spoke. She was wearing a soft white plain long dress (supposed to be worn as pajamas), but it was crepe, and she must have just woken up. "I met a lost little girl." "Lost little girl? Just take it to the police station!" "Uh, actually, I'm looking for the little girl's home with the police. I have no choice but to ask you for help, to see if I can find more clues about her identity..." Listening to my explanation, Miss Sakurako wrinkled her nose and scratched her fair shoulders.

"I don't care who you're going to do with, but don't involve me! I assemble bones and don't sleep until four in the morning. What my body needs now is not to talk to you, but to have a good beauty sleep!" "Please! Just look at it! Just take a look!" Ms. Yingzi was obviously troubled. Although I felt very guilty, I still had to carry Xiaoyi to her from the police car.Maybe it was because of my wrong way of holding, Xiaoyi struggled a bit, woke up, and when she saw Miss Yingzi with a stinky face, she immediately grabbed me tightly again. "So, what do you want me to see her for?"

"Everything is fine, can you see anything from her?" I tried my best to put Xiaoyi down and let her stand on the ground, but she resisted to the death and refused to stand up properly. I tried to hold her hand to make her stand up, but I was afraid that I would accidentally pull her shoulder and dislocate it , had to let go quickly. "Little devil, stand up!" Miss Yingzi said. "Don't! My feet are sleepy!" Sitting at the door, Xiaoyi shook her head violently, but she shook her hand away when she wanted to grab her, and even hid her hands behind her back to prevent me from grabbing her.

"It's okay, don't be afraid, just listen to what Big Sister says." Miss Yingzi seemed very impatient, pacing up and down irritably, I hurriedly coaxed Xiaoyi to obey.Miss Yingzi looked down at Xiaoyi, turned around and walked into the house, and when she came back, she had ripe red plums in her hand. "Let's eat." Miss Yingzi handed Xiaoyi a plum, and gently touched her head. Although her tone was cold, her movements were very gentle. "Stand up, will you?" Maybe it was the sweet fruit, or maybe it was being patted on the head, Xiaoyi was no longer so afraid of Miss Yingzi, and stood up obediently with the plum in her front teeth.

"Hmm... About eighty-seven centimeters tall... Can you dance? Show my sister." Miss Yingzi danced on the spot for Xiaoyi to watch, and then beckoned to Xiaoyi to do the same. Xiaoyi thought about it and danced lightly. "Very good." Miss Yingzi nodded and gave Xiaoyi another plum. "Normally, a child will only jump up in place when he is about two and a half years old. This child can speak a few words and his own name, which means that he is over three years old. He is about 87 centimeters tall, yes The average height is about two and a half years old, but everyone is different, so it is difficult to have a standard. Judging from the above conditions, it is about three years old. It may be born shorter, or grow slowly, or may be malnourished or Bad habits."

"By the way...she has bruises on her body, and she's also stained with someone's blood." "You mean blood?" Miss Yingzi raised her eyebrows in surprise, and quickly reached out to check Xiaoyi's body, when suddenly there was a scream resounding from the house. "Oh, hello! Miss! What are you doing in such a virtuous manner!" My mother-in-law rushed out, but I was about to explain, but I was stared at. Before I could speak, she pushed Miss Yingzi into the room and closed the door with lightning speed. "That..." My voice sounded very hollow, "I can't help it..."

In the end, I only knew that Xiaoyi was about three years old, and it seemed that even Ms. Yingzi couldn't find out more information, so I took Xiaoyi's hand back to the police car dejectedly. "It's not bad to know your age." I told the police what Ms. Sakurako told me, and he said that with a smile, he was such an optimistic person, but I was still disappointed that there was still no progress. "That's right..." I really want to find her home as soon as possible. This thought makes me anxious, but even if I find her, what should I do?What if her parents really kicked her out of the house, or even hurt her? Looking at Xiao Yi happily eating plums, even a stranger like me thinks the child is very cute. Every movement of the small body is so jerky, much more fragile than adults, and even if I hug her, I worry that I will hurt her. I really can't figure out why anyone would want to hurt her, let alone someone closest to her. "Here." Xiaoyi suddenly handed me the plum. "Huh?" She had already eaten that plum, and she almost ate it up, leaving only the sour flesh around the core. "Uh...thanks." I didn't want to refuse her kindness, but I didn't know how to eat it, so I had to accept it with a wry smile, made a gesture of eating it, and then hid it in the palm of my hand.Xiaoyi smiled contentedly, and began to eat another plum. No way, we went to the Nanguang area again to search for Xiaoyi's home, and decided to expand the search area, first going to the largest park nearby.When Xiaoyi saw the park, she immediately rushed to the slide excitedly, saying that she liked this park the most and had been there before, but it was not the park near her home.I saw a couple walking a large dog in the park and asked them if they had seen Xiao Yi, but they had no impression. Xiaoyi went out barefoot, and is currently wearing the boots that the public sent to the police station.I asked the police to wear someone else's lost property casually?The police said that the lost property has not been claimed for five years, no problem.Since it had been five years, the owner probably couldn't wear these boots, and the boots fit her feet just right. Xiao Yi was very happy. It's a pity that boots are not suitable for children's lively and active personality. Xiaoyi stumbled when she walked. I asked other people who got up early and heard crying from behind. It turned out that Xiaoyi was playing in the sand pit stumble.I thought about it, and I couldn't let her run around alone, so I had to ask the police for information, and I went back to accompany Xiaoyi. "Are you okay?" "Nose... yes!" I wanted to grab her left hand, but she threw it away, and saw her hide her little left hand in the sleeve of her pajamas. "Oh, so you can't hold this hand?" It seems that Xiaoyi doesn't like people holding her left hand, so she extended her right hand instead, and I pulled her up. "Oh, no, the whole army is wiped out!" The policeman rubbed his face and came back. It seems that he asked around, but no one knew Xiaoyi, so it was troublesome. "It's nerve-wracking." "what time is it now?" "Early six o'clock." "Six o'clock..." It seemed that I still had to wait for the Shifu Center to open. Just when I was about to give up, my smartphone rang. "Hello?" I didn't expect it to be Miss Yingzi calling. "it's me." "What, how?" "Where are you?" "Huh? Ah, it's... Lavender Park." I looked at the signboard at the entrance of the park and replied. "I'll go there right away, don't go." "what?" She hung up the phone again.I just said the name of the park, so you can find it?But Ms. Sakura doesn't often carry her mobile phone with her, so there is no other way to contact her. "What's the matter? What can't be done at this time, do you want to go back to the police station first?" the policeman said. "Actually..." Will the police accept my explanation?Even if he said "Miss Yingzi is coming", he would probably only think "so what", and urge me to hurry back to the police station.Besides, will Miss Sakurako really come?I have been talking about it for more than ten minutes, and now I can only pray that Ms. Yingzi will show up soon and solve the current problem. Yes, definitely no problem.Because Ms. Sakurako can find out the "bones (truth)" of everything.
