Han Muchuan had been waiting at the entrance of Wuliu Town Middle School early on.
Of course, he was sitting in a minivan he had rented in Hai City.
As he expected, Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci drove directly into the school.
It was hot, and their car windows were open.
Just as he expected, although Meng Chuyue came with Shen Ci, Han Zheng, and the three babies, only Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci were in the car at that moment.
Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci wouldn’t leave Han Zheng and the three babies alone in Hai City, so... they were now in the "space."
Muchuan excitedly captured this scene, waiting to expose Meng Chuyue later.
However, the thought that Meng Chuyue and Han Zheng had shared the secret of the "space" with Shen Ci, an outsider, while keeping it from him and Han Jin, caused him a dull pain in his heart.
By now, it had been almost two days since Shen Mei had called Meng Chuyue.
Erhu had already eavesdropped on all the villagers in Xinghua Village and had successfully located the human traffickers.
However, since they hadn’t found out Shen Cong’s whereabouts, Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue had to make a trip to Xinghua Village, otherwise they couldn’t reveal the criminals.
Was it Erhu who discovered the criminals?
Even if they dared to say so, no one would believe it.
They exchanged a few pleasantries with Shen Mei, then immediately took Shen Mei and Xu Yinuo to rush towards Xinghua Village.
Han Muchuan followed halfway but didn’t continue.
He wanted to follow, but without a disguise, he would be discovered by Meng Chuyue and others, and then he wouldn’t be able to explain himself.
Disguise... at this critical moment, he might be suspected of being a trafficker.
He had to be cautious.
Upon reaching the home of Shen Mei’s mother, Meng Chuyue, as usual, took a pile of gifts from the trunk for Grandma Shen, explaining, "These were prepared by my dad; I came in a hurry and don’t know what they are. Please don’t refuse them, take them, and let’s talk about Little Cong’s matter."
In this situation, it really wasn’t suitable for too much ceremony over gifts. Grandma Shen nodded, and together with her family, told Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue about Shen Cong’s disappearance that day.
After listening seriously, Shen Ci said, "Although I cannot be completely certain, given Xinghua Village’s terrain, if the child was indeed kidnapped, there must be accomplices in the village. Think about it, do you recognize any suspicious people?"
The Shen family immediately erupted.
"This, this can’t be possible, right? Our village doesn’t have such wicked people, how could it?"
"Yes, I also don’t believe it."
"This, ...is this really the case?"
Finally, it was Shen Mei who interrupted them, "It’s better to believe it’s possible rather than dismiss it, just think carefully; thinking about it won’t hurt the innocent."
The Shen family members immediately began pondering.
Without waiting for them to figure it out, after exchanging a glance, Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue stood up and said, "We will go outside and look around, you take your time to think, and tell us immediately if you think of anything."
After Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci went out, they first went back to their car to fetch two large bags of high-end candies.
Various candies like King’s Monkey Milk Candy, White Rabbit Creamy Candy, Liquor-filled Chocolates, Wow...
All were favorites among children, and even adults.
Whenever they met children, they first gave out two candies, and then gently told them, "If you can tell us about any strange events that happened on the day Shen Cong disappeared, I’ll give you ten more candies, and you can choose them."
Children have different tastes; some liked milk candies, some liked gummy candies, some liked chocolates, some liked fruit candies; the requests varied.
The children’s eyes immediately lit up, delving into deep thought.
The adults watching the excitement pondered for a while, and the clever ones immediately called their children over for a whispering session.
Before long, the children began to speak up actively.
Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue kept handing out candies.
Finally, after both large bags of candies were distributed, they stopped, "Thank you, kids, the candy is all gone, and the question session has ended, you can go now."
