The crowd finally dispersed. For a moment, the noisy courtyard was calm again.

Fortunately, the Xiaohe family are all reasonable people, not like other people who are agitated on the island. They just attack Xia Yi and Xiao Linmu.

If that is the case, the situation will be even worse.

Xia Yi spits out a mouthful of turbid gas and says to Xiaohe Niang: "Xiaohe Niang, this matter has affected you today. I'm really sorry."

The river Niang's line of sight takes back from the courtyard entrance, Mou light tiny sink, "might as well matter of, find you perhaps really just a reason just, this island is afraid to want not peaceful again."

With that, she sighed again.

But many, river Niang also didn't speak with Xia Yi again, just way: "you these days put the mind on looking for the child is, these days don't have to worry about the kitchen."

"Good." Xia Yi should say, "this stone table, we'll find a way to help you mend it in a few days."

"Forget it, it's just a big stone." River Niang way, "you busy your go."

Although they have been on the island for some time, they are not so familiar with it.

Xiao Linmu, in particular, has been sitting in bed for several days.

Therefore, it is not so easy for them to investigate.

So the river became their little guide, leading them to the families where they lost their children.

It took half a day to understand the specific situation.

Can understand the situation, Xia Yi and Xiao Linmu are worried, it is really a difficult thing.

Four families have lost their children. The youngest is about the same age as Xiaohe, and the oldest is more than eight years old.

Xiaohe has run all over the island by himself at this age, not to mention the children over eight years old.

All of them are very familiar with the island, and every family on the island knows each other. Even if there are children who really run far and don't know the way, just say it and someone will help them send them home.

So there has never been a child lost on this island.

What's more, the most amazing thing is that several children disappeared in the daytime.

Especially quanzi, who is more than eight years old, just went out to find his father for lunch.

But quanzi's mother waited at home until quanzi's father came back.

When asked, Quan Zi's father said that he didn't see his son go to ask him to eat at all. He came back hungry.

I thought my son was playful and delayed in a neighbor's house, but I didn't go home until dark.

They asked about all the places quanzi often visited, but they said they had never met quanzi.

The next day, they heard that another child had been lost.

Xia Yi and Xiao Linmu ask each other, and the more they ask, the more they feel.

What they all said was just like the child disappeared out of thin air, and they couldn't find any clues at all.

Especially aunt Fang, when Xia Yi asks, she only knows how to keep crying. She asks Xia Yi and Xiao Linmu to help her find the child, but when she asks for clues, she only knows how to shake her head.

Coming out of aunt Fang's house, Xia Yi stands at the door, not knowing where to go.

When asked by the four families, she only felt that the first two were big.

"Where else?" Summer meaning has no clue of ask a way.

Xiao Linmu said: "there are not many useful clues, but they are not. Quanzi went out to ask his father to eat. His whereabouts are not the same as other children. There is no logic to speak of. Instead, we can start with quanzi first. "

Xia Yi pondered for a moment, "it seems that we may need a map of the distribution of residents on the island, and then we need to go to Quan ZipA's house to ask about the situation."

Xiaohe immediately said: "the patriarch's grandfather has it at home. I'll help you get it!"

With that, the river turned and ran to the direction of the patriarch's house.

Seeing that she was about to run away, Xia Yi's brain jumped and immediately stopped the river, "slow down, we'll go with you."

The river stops in place, waiting for Xia Yi and Xiao Linmu to come.

Xia Yi said to him: "recently lost too many children, do not go out alone."

Xiaohe doesn't think so. "I'm familiar on this island. I can't get lost."

Summer meaning Mou son tiny sink, this island still don't know how many with river a thought of children.

She couldn't help patting the head of the river and said, "just now you heard that brother quanzi is also familiar with the island. When he was your age, he ran from the west of the island to the east of the island to steal peaches. Can you still be familiar with him?"

The river drooped his head, hands to fingers, and no longer spoke.

To be honest, he may not be as familiar with the island as brother quanzi.

As Xiaohe said, the patriarch's family has a map of the residents on the island.

More than that, the residents distribution map was just updated last year. In the words of the patriarch, there can be no mistake.

Then they went to Quan Zi's father again and asked him about some of the houses he used to visit.

It's too late for such a trip.

Xia Yi feels that her stomach is empty. Don't say Xiaohe is a child.

So they decided to go home for dinner first.

The broken stones of the stone table have been cleaned up and replaced by a wooden table.

The wooden table is new. It's much bigger than the stone table.

The size of the map is just right.

Xia Yi finds a piece of charcoal and marks out the residence of the four lost children.

At first glance, the four families who lost their children didn't live in a regular way, but after careful observation, they found that they were mostly distributed in the west of the island.

No one on the island lost their children.

As for the others, there are too few clues to be found for the time being.

Then Xia Yi also marked on the picture some of the houses that Quan Zi's father often goes to.

The nearest family to quanzi's is only four families away.

The father of quanzi asked, but quanzi never went there that day.

This is strange. If you want to find someone, quanzi must start from the nearest family.

Did Quan Zi go elsewhere as soon as he left home?

Xia Yi rubs the melon seeds, and she nods. She looks up at Xiao Linmu, who just shakes her head with Xia Yi.

"After dinner, I'll go to these four houses and ask first." Xiao Linmu said.

Summer meaning nods, "also can only like this."

Before the meal was served, the gate of Xiaohe's courtyard was suddenly closed.

A woman burst in with an anxious look on her face.

This woman, Xia Yi, had seen her before. She lived not far from Xiaohe's house. There was also a son in her house, two years older than Xiaohe, whose name was Dazhuang.

Xia Yi's heart sank and suddenly rose with a very bad premonition.

Sure enough, when Da Zhuang Niang opened her mouth, she brought bad news.

"You... Have you seen Dazhuang? Dazhuang is gone

Xia Yi didn't expect that they had already started to investigate. The murderer who abducted the child was not afraid at all. After half a day, another child was lost!
