Chapter 24 lost person

Helen is outraged by Gigi's behavior.Otherwise, she would have called the Dorians.Before dinner the next day, she went to ask Jiji if she still planned to go home and when she planned to go home.But she panicked when she discovered that Gigi was neither at Dowling's nor at the club.She kept questioning her daughter, and made Marianne cry.Then she called Gigi's old and new friends one by one, but no one had seen him. "Maybe it's with some girl." Hillary said. "He's only fifteen!" said Helen. "So what? Romeo and Juliet are about his age."

"He hasn't eloped yet, Hillary!" Helen said sternly. "We don't need to be in a hurry!" Shirui also roared, "He may walk into the house at any time, and then give us a reasonable explanation and tell us where he went." They agreed that this was a possibility, but the idea didn't last long.Marianne blamed herself for snitching on Helen, and Helen blamed herself for calling the Dorians so late.Tired of hearing the self-complaints of the two, Hillary drove around the village. He was sure that he would meet Gigi in the village or on the way home, but when he came back alone, Helen couldn't be more optimistic.

"That's not the way Gigi does things," she said. "I'm sure something happened to him and I'm going to call the police." Officer Earley receives a call from Helen.She recounted what happened, detailing what Gigi looked like and what she was wearing when she left home.The officer pledged to send the information to all police stations in the area.An hour later, the officer brought in forms for them to fill out, asking specifically about Gigi's mental health: Was he having a good time at school?Does he have friends?Do you have a girlfriend?Did he drink?Or, according to their reasoning, had he taken drugs?Did you argue with your family before you left home?

After the inquiry, Officer Earley closed his notebook, stood up, and said to the anxious parents: "If I were you, I would not be too anxious. 95% of the missing people will return within 48 hours." Before he walked down the steps, After hesitating for a moment, he continued, "This house is famous for its music. I have heard your mother play many times, and I have also heard your music, Mrs. Liddy." However, Helen didn't pay attention to the title "Mrs. Liddy", and she forced a smile: "This home is always full of music." "I also play a little bit of the banjo," Inspector Earley said. "I just can't put it down."

"I understand how you feel," Helen said. After closing the door behind her, Hillary sighed: "God, can you believe it? The police themselves can form an Irish police band!" The police's reassurances did little to assuage Helen's fears.There have been two disappearances in the Liddy family, and the parties in each case have never been seen again.The police officer's questioning of Gigi's mental state worries Hillary even more in a country where suicide rates among teens are on the rise.When Helen went to milk the goats and Marian also went to wait for the phone call, he quietly searched every corner of the farm.
