Near dusk, the sun on the horizon is like blood.
From the subway exit, it is about a long walk to the express hotel.
Mao Xiaoyu may have been tired of playing, and he looked dazed, so he didn't keep silent, holding a bottle of water in his hand and drinking most of it.
"Are you hungry?"
Luo Bo asked.
"Tired."
Hunger is still secondary.
Mao Xiaoyu just wanted to go back to the hotel to take a shower and rest.
Luo Bo was not reluctant, and pointed to the intersection: "Go straight for two hundred meters and it will be a hotel."
I'll go buy something first. ” "Okay."
Mao Xiaoyu recognized the next road, and probably remembered that the location of the express hotel was not far ahead.
After the crossroads, Mao Xiaoyu raised his neck to drink water while walking, and the corner of his eye inadvertently aimed at his pocket, remembering that peanuts hadn't drunk water for a long time.
She turned to a relatively quiet fork in the road, found a shaded place where no one was around, released the peanuts, fed him water, and comforted him: "I'll be home soon." ” 'Wangwang' overheard the dog barking.
Mao Xiaoyu settled down the peanuts and walked out to take a look.
There were two stray dogs, probably looking down on people, and barking fiercely at a plainly dressed woman.
The woman panicked and crouched down to pick up something and smash the dog, but the road was clean, and there were no stones or branches to defend herself.
The stray dog was even more proud, approaching step by step.
Of course, Mao Xiaoyu wouldn't rush out, she looked around.
There is a garbage bin not far away, and there is some construction waste piled up next to the bin.
Probably someone's house nearby is decorating, right?
In short, Mao Xiaoyu picked up a waste water pipe and rushed out to beat the dog away.
"Thank you, big sister, thank you."
The woman was grateful.
Mao Xiaoyu was still holding the waste pipe in his hand, and grinned: "No thanks, it's a gesture."
"Hey......
"It looks a little familiar."
The woman's face was haggard, and her hair was disheveled.
The two cheekbones are slightly high, the eyebrows and eyes are very sad, and the smile is squeezed out when I thank him.
Visually in his forties, right?
The woman stooped in gratitude, then turned and walked away briskly.
Looking at her back, Mao Xiaoyu recognized: Isn't this the woman she saw when she got out of the high-speed rail station?
She hurriedly took a few steps to talk: "Sister, you are also a foreigner, right?"
” The woman didn't expect her to catch up and speak, but she was stunned for a moment, nodded her head, and her steps were not slow.
"Me too."
"Hmm."
Hearing this, the woman smiled bitterly.
Mao Xiaoyu went straight to the point: "Sister, where are you going?"
” "I, I'm looking for someone." ” Mao Xiaoyu glanced at her again.
There was no luggage, just an old old-fashioned satchel, and the shoes on the feet were also cloth shoes, all with a thick layer of dust.
"Did you find it?"
These words seemed to poke at the woman's weakness, she paused, looked away, and subconsciously shook her head.
Mao Xiaoyu paid attention to her, and her mental state was okay.
She couldn't help but ask, "Who are you looking for?"
” "Daughter, son."
Mao Xiaoyu is strange.

Pinching her fingers, she has also arrived in the imperial capital for at least two days and two nights, right?
Why do you still look like this?
"How old are your daughters and sons?"
And the woman's expression was grief-stricken.
Mao Xiaoyu put down his glasses and secretly guessed: It won't be the child who was abducted and trafficked, and he has been looking for it.
Only recently did a new clue arise, so a person looking for God all?
"Why didn't they come and pick you up?"
Mao Xiaoyu asked tentatively.
The woman didn't seem to be able to take it anymore, so she stumbled to the base of the wall and sat down, no matter how dirty it was.
Mao Xiaoyu was startled and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, eldest sister, are you okay?"
” The woman just shook her head and fumbled for a bottle of water from her bag, which was not much.
Mao Xiaoyu looked at what he was holding and drank most of it.
She trotted to a small shop nearby and bought a bottle of water and a bag of bread and handed it to her: "Big sister, give it." ” Glancing at her, the woman licked her mouth, and her lips were visibly chapped.
"This?"
She was embarrassed.
"Take it."
Mao Xiaoyu stuffed her: "Actually, I've seen you several times, and it's fate."
Besides, if they are both outsiders, they should help each other. ” “…… Thanks, ha.
The woman took the water and drank half a jar in one gulp, but she could not eat the bread.
When her mood calmed down, Mao Xiaoyu couldn't stay with her all the time, so she suggested: "Sister."
You're looking for your own child, aren't you?
Go call the police. ” "Call the police?"
The woman sighed dejectedly, "It's useless."
The police won't care. ” "Impossible, right?
This is the imperial capital.
At the feet of the Son of Heaven, dare to slack off?
Mao Xiaoyu didn't believe it.
Some government personnel in first-tier cities are not very blatantly lazy.
Sighing again, the woman still shook her head: "You don't understand. ” Mao Xiaoyu was speechless for a while.
She didn't believe in the police, so she had to look for her like a headless fly, so let her go?
Anyway, as a passerby, she did everything she could.
Wiping off the sweat, Mao Xiaoyu said, "Okay, I'll go first."
Good luck. ” "Well, big girl......" the woman stood up and called out to her.
Mao Xiaoyu turned around.
"You ......," the woman said.
"Sister, just say it.
I can help.
"Mao Xiaoyu is fast-talking.
The woman hesitated, and then asked ruthlessly, "Can I borrow your phone?"
It's not a long distance, it's the number here. ” "Yes."
This is not an overstatement.
The woman also took out an old man's machine, rummaged through it, and explained to Mao Xiaoyu, who was puzzled: "I'll call my son."
His phone was turned off as soon as I got through.
I'm panicking, and I want to borrow your call, maybe I'll be willing to take it. ” "Oh, okay."
Although she is a middle-aged woman, her mind is still clear.

Mao Xiaoyu was also enthusiastic: "I'll help you fight." ” "It's this number."
The woman's eyes were a little unfavorable, and she took it farther away.
Mao Xiaoyu recognized it, dialed the number with his mobile phone, and then waited.
'Toot ~ ' is connected, but it has not been answered for a long time.
Mao Xiaoyu, who did not give up, dialed it again.
When the bell was about to end, someone finally answered, it was a male voice, and the tone was not emotional: "Hey." ” The woman was overjoyed, took it, and said excitedly: "Xiaolong, I'm my mother, why don't you answer the phone?"
Is my little sister okay......
Hey, hey, hey.
The phone hung up on the other end.
Called again, it really shut down.
Mao Xiaoyu and the woman looked at each other, and she asked lately: "Eldest sister, is that voice your son just now?"
” "It doesn't seem to be."
The eldest sister is still in a state of blindfolding.
"Your son and daughter are both adults, aren't they?"
"Hmm."
"They work together in the imperial capital?"
But the woman did not answer, but muttered to herself, "Something must have happened, something must have happened."
It's impossible for Xiaolong not to answer my phone?
Even if the battery is out and turned off, an unfamiliar number, he can hear my voice.
Why not pick it up?
Why is someone else answering the phone?
” "Why don't you go and ask where they work?"
But the woman's shoulders were slumped, and her eyes were blank: "I don't know."
I don't know ......."
"You don't know where your son works?"
Mao Xiaoyu's speculation escalated: "Could it be that you have entered a pyramid scheme?"
”
