nRedemption

n“It’s nothing. I just remembered something. Let’s go now.” Yu Su came back to her senses and quickly buttoned up her raincoat as she said to Xiao Han.

n“Everyone, let’s go. We’ll split up into groups and contact each other if there’s any news,” Director Lin said when he saw that everyone was almost done preparing.

nYu Su was the first to leave the room. It was not that she was kind, but that she had to find this child.

nPerhaps this was a redemption, a redemption for herself that belonged to her.

n“Yu Su, walk slowly. It’s raining so heavily, and the road is difficult to walk on. That child will definitely be fine.” Meng Xi saw that Yu Su was walking very quickly and hurriedly reminded her.

nYu Su slowed down slightly and looked at the mountain hidden in the rain. The uneasiness in her heart gradually intensified. “Let’s go straight to the child’s house to take a look. After all, the neighbor said that he was going to send an umbrella to Grandma and bring her home.”

n“Follow me slowly. I’ll go over and take a look first.” After saying that, Yu Su quickened her pace again and even jogged a few steps without waiting for them to reply.

n“Yu Su, wait for me!” Meng Xi ran a few steps after her, but the path was very muddy and she slipped. She accidentally fell to the ground and twisted her foot.

nDing Chen and Xiao Han quickly helped her up.

n“Don’t worry about me. I’m fine. Hurry up and follow her. I don’t think she’s in the right state.” Meng Xi tried to break free from Ding Chen’s hand, but she failed every time.

n“I’ll go after her. See if you can walk. If you can’t, let Ding Chen send you home. If there’s no problem, just look around the village. It’s not easy to walk through the ridges.” Xiao Han saw Ding Chen stabilize Meng Xi before chasing after Yu Su.

nShen Chun, who had just come out of the house, saw everything that had just happened. She pursed her lips and said, “Tsk, she’s really good at putting on a show.”

nWhen Yu Ruo heard this, she glared at her fiercely. No matter what, Yu Su was still his sister. He could discipline her and correct her. Who did this Shen Chun think she was? How dare she say that about his sister?

n“Third Brother, where are we going to find him?”

nYu Miao naturally noticed the change in Yu Ruo and was very dissatisfied. In addition, they had a good day to rest, but they had to come out and look for the child in the heavy rain. What right did they have? What does the missing child have to do with them? However, no matter how dissatisfied she was, her face was still filled with anxiety.

n“You guys walk around the village. I’ll follow and take a look.” Yu Ruo was still a little worried, but at the same time, he was also worried about Yu Miao, so he instructed Yu Miao to stay in the village and not go out.

nYe Chang also hurriedly followed Yu Ruo.

nYu Miao stared at the two of them, her face filled with unwillingness, so she pretended to chase after them. She glanced at the stone that was exposed on the ground beside her and fell down.

nOn the other side, Yu Su stumbled into the field. It was easy to recognize the stones beside the strongman’s house, but as far as the eye could see, there was nothing but the river water that had become muddy and turbulent because of the rain, as well as the dense forest in the distance.

nYu Su’s intuition told her that the child must have disappeared here, so she slowly walked around the field.

nSuddenly, her attention was attracted by a flash of red.

nThe field had become a depression. There was a lot of water because of the rain. The water mixed with the soil and it was a blackish-yellow color.

nIt was this small puddle that revealed a bright red plastic sheet. Yu Su squatted down and picked up the plastic sheet.

nThat’s right. This was the wrapper of the sweet that she had bought for Zhuangzhuang yesterday. So the child had gone to the field. Did the child see that his grandmother was not in the field, so he went home, or…

nAs Yu Su thought about this, she subconsciously looked at the forest in the distance.

nThere were not many trees in the periphery of the forest. There were also some roads left behind by the villagers who cut wood and firewood. Further in, they could not see the path ahead clearly. Thick trees were densely arranged one after another, and there was no end to them.

nShe remembered that at that time, in order to avoid the police, that man had hidden her in the mountains for a long time before moving to the next place.

nThe villagers here revered the mountains. Children were told from a young age not to go into the mountains. No matter how one thought about it, such a young child would not take the initiative to walk into the mountains. Then did something happen to him? Or was he also brought into the mountains?

nWith this thought in mind, Yu Su walked towards the deep forest step by step…
