That night.
It was half past two late at night.
Xu Chengfeng suddenly received a call from Xu Yuan. He glanced at the time. He intuitively felt that Xu Yuan, who was also in Xu's house at this time, would suddenly call. Something must have happened, and he immediately sat up.
"Chengfeng, is Zuo Yue with you?" Xu Yuan's voice came over as soon as the call was connected.
Xu Chengfeng's eyebrows instantly jumped: "I'm not here, what happened?"
Xu Yuan immediately let go of her hanging heart, but she suspended it again: "That's weird. When I went to the Zuoyue room last night, she said a few words and suddenly ran to find you. , Said something fell with you. Then I went to the front office, and after I was busy, it was too late to see her again. I just received a call from the company night shift team and couldn’t fall asleep temporarily, so I went out and went out. Go, when passing by Zuo Yue’s room, worried about her leg injury, she opened the door of her room but found that she was not in the room."
Xu Chengfeng got out of bed subconsciously, picked up a coat, and walked out while on the phone: "What does it mean that she is not in the room? It is now 2:30 in the morning, and Xu's house is strictly controlled if she goes out at night. I don’t know, have you seen it in the bathroom?"
"I've seen it. The bathroom and toilet in her room are all good. If she gets up to go to the bathroom, it is impossible to run out, but there is no sign of her anywhere. I feel strange. I thought she went to you last night. I just... didn't come back... so I called to ask you." Xu Yuan was a little bit hesitant in her voice, but she still said it after all.
"She wasn't here with me. She went back not long after she came to me last night." Xu Chengfeng had already walked out while speaking. The winter night was cold and windy. Although there were a few street lights in the Xu family’s house, because It was late at night, in order not to disturb people's sleep, it was not very bright, and the distance seemed to be silent and dark.
"Where will she go at so late?" Xu Yuan's voice has already brought some questions: "Chengfeng, there is one thing I have never had a chance to say, it is also because there are too many things in the Xu family recently, I didn't want to mention it, but A few months after Zuo Yue went to Boston, I felt that she had changed a lot after returning. She used to tell me what she was thinking about, but now she refuses to say anything, and she will sit in one place all by herself. The sky doesn’t move for a while, and she is in a daze. I feel like she has many things hidden in her heart now. She doesn’t want to say it, but she is holding it alone. What happened to her in Boston these months? Do you know? know?"
Xu Chengfeng was silent for a moment, his eyes still swiftly searching in the Xu family's house, and his voice said faintly: "I don't know, let's find someone first, let's talk about it when we find it."
"I remember Zuo Yue only wore one pajama when she went out. She probably didn't come back later. She wore so little. Where can she go in the middle of the night?"
Xu Chengfeng suddenly became agitated.
For the first time in years, he knew what it meant to be out of his control. Everything could not be controlled by the results he wanted. The feeling of separation made him very irritable.
"Find someone first!" He didn't say more, and walked directly into Zuo Yue's place after hanging up the phone.
Xu Yuan had already walked out, and when she saw him, she was also very anxious when she saw that Xu Chengfeng was also very anxious, so she believed that Zuo Yue did not stay with him for too long this night, and indeed was not in his room at the moment.
After Xu Chengfeng looked around in the Zuo Yue chamber unwillingly, he turned around and went out to search again.
In the snow and ice, it was almost half past two in the middle of the night, and everything was silent. She couldn't disturb the other people and guests of the Xu family. Xu Yuan was also worried until now. She kept calling Zuo Yue, but she still didn’t. Someone answered, but this at least proved that Zuo Yue did not shut down.
But after playing for so long, I didn't hear the movement of mobile phones around. It was obvious that Zuo Yue was not near here.
Xu Chengfeng also turned on the light function of his mobile phone and searched everywhere in the yard. Xu's house was not too big or small. He really wanted to find every room and every place where he could hide. He couldn't find it until dawn.
Xu Chengfeng was also calling Zuo Yue, but it was either on the front line or no one answered. He cursed and continued to look for places where she might go, and finally turned on the GPS that had already been set for Zuo Yue’s phone. Tracker, the tracker should not be turned on at will, otherwise it will affect the patrol signal of the local police in Los Angeles and be watched by the police. But if you don’t find her quickly in this cold night, nothing will happen. thing.
Seeing that the range indicated by the red dot was nearby, that is, within the Xu family, she was sure that she had not been sneaked into the Xu family by someone who wanted to stay away, and she was still within the scope of the Xu family safely, Xu Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief. , But at the same time he blinked, looking at the place shown by the red dot.
He turned abruptly to look in the direction of Xu's backyard, turned around and walked quickly.
Seeing him getting closer and closer to the signal position displayed on the phone, Xu Chengfeng raised his eyes and looked at a tall Roman statue in the backyard. He knew that there was a flowerbed behind the statue, but because it was winter, the flowerbed was only a piece of land now. Very remote open space.
Xu Chengfeng doubted how she was there. As soon as he approached, he suddenly saw that there were several snowmen of various sizes piled up in the open space behind the Roman statue. He was about to walk over. Suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind.
Xu Yuan has also found this place. When she saw the snowmen from a distance, her eyes were suddenly startled, and she quickly walked over: "Why!"
Xu Chengfeng glanced at her. Xu Yuan had already walked over and walked directly to the Roman statue. When she saw Zuo Yue, who was curled up with her knees and legs, sitting behind the Roman statue, Xu Yuan hurriedly leaned down. The frozen Zuo Yue hugged him: "My God..."
Xu Chengfeng bypassed the Roman statue. Because Xu Yuan was here, he didn’t show his emotions. However, when he saw Zuo Yue’s frozen face turning blue and leaning in Xu Yuan’s arms, he finally couldn’t help stepping forward to take people from her. Hold it in your arms.
"Don't, don't touch her!" Xu Yuan suddenly held Zuo Yue tightly in her arms as he stretched out her hand, and stepped in to block Xu Chengfeng's hand, then turned her eyes to the few snowmen next to her, with a few in her eyes. Said bitterly: "Except for the people in Zuo's family, no one else knows that Zuo Yue was stimulated when she was a child... She was only like this when she was particularly desperate... Don't touch her, let me come, I will take her back to the room. , Chengfeng, call a doctor for help, don’t let others know."
Xu Chengfeng's eyes shook when he heard the phrase "Zuo Yue was stimulated when he was a child".
