"It has something to do with this."
Chen Luo raised the centenary lock in his hand.
"A hundred-year-old lock?"
Wu Rui asked with confusion on his face after seeing it. At the same time, he walked over and took the Baisui Suo and looked at it.
Seeing that it was just an ordinary centenarian lock, I became even more puzzled.
"This hundred-year-old lock was brought to me by an owl."
Seeing Wu Rui like this, Chen Luo explained with a smile.
"Owl got it? What's wrong with this lock??"
Wu Rui was surprised at first when he heard this, and then asked.
"It has the name of the child wearing it. When I looked at the information last night, the name of a missing child case was the same as the one in the lock."
Chen Luo pointed at Baisui Suo and said.
"Which disappearance case."
After hearing this, Wu Rui immediately walked behind Chen Luo, looked at the computer and asked.
Upon hearing this, Chen Luo quickly retrieved the information on the disappearance case, then raised his finger and pointed.
"This is the case of a missing child seventeen years ago."
Wu Rui immediately moved forward and read the case information carefully.
Seventeen years ago, a three-and-a-half-year-old child named Guo Pengpeng disappeared in the village.
According to his parents.
At that time, the child was playing alone in the yard.
Mother was busy in the kitchen making dinner.
But I didn't hear any movement outside.
When the mother came out after finishing her work, the child was gone.
Then I searched everywhere in the village, but couldn't find the child.
When I asked people in the village, they all said they had not seen the child.
At that time, the adults in the village were either busy in the kitchen preparing dinner or working outside.
As for the children, they were either playing in their own yards or playing together in groups.
Coincidentally, on that day, these groups of children did not play in the village, but went to play at the foot of the mountain opposite the village.
I don't even know where Guo Pengpeng went.
I couldn't find it in the village, so I searched wider, but still couldn't find it.
Then the police were called and more people were mobilized to look for him.
But in the end, the child seemed to have disappeared from the world.
Then someone asked whether the child might have been abducted by human traffickers.
As soon as these words came out.
The child's parents were immediately frightened.
But they all also knew that judging from the situation at the time, this possibility was very high.
Then the parents started looking for their children in this direction.
This search has taken so many years.
But so far, there is still no news.
There is a photo of the child in the file.
He is a very sunny child with an innocent smile on his face.
only!
The centenarian lock is not seen in the photo.
But when the record mentioned the child's personal clothing, it was noted that he was wearing a centenary lock.
After Wu Rui read the message, he checked the words on Baisui's name. When he saw that they were exactly the same, he stood silently and raised his hand to slowly tap on the table.
Seeing Wu Rui like this, Chen Luo couldn't help but look at him blankly.
"If I remember correctly, three months ago, this child's parents came here to ask if there was any news about him. Although I don't understand micro-expressions and body language, I can still clearly see that this couple The hope in their eyes, the hope that their child can return safely, should be the belief that supports their tireless search for their child for so many years."
Seeing Chen Luo looking at him like this, Wu Rui spoke slowly.
"Master, you are worried that if this hundred-year-old lock is really this child, his parents' faith will be destroyed."
Chen Luo understood immediately after hearing this.
"Yes! The couple has always believed that their child was abducted, and they still hold on to the hope that one day the family will be reunited. Now if this expectation is broken, they are worried that they will bear the consequences. Can’t live.”
Wu Rui nodded and sighed in response.
Chen Luo nodded in understanding.
It was originally supported by the expectation that the child would be alive. If suddenly, it was learned that the child was gone, the supporting point would collapse.
The impact on people at that moment can be imagined.
"I'll call them and make sure first whether this hundred-year-old lock belongs to this child."
Then Wu Rui's hand punched the table with a little force.
"good!"
Chen Luo nodded and said hello.
There is something very wrong with this centenary lock, so naturally we need to find out whether it has anything to do with this child.
You can't just ignore it because you're worried that the couple won't be able to handle it.
Soon Wu Rui's call was answered.
"Officer Wu, is there any news about my child?"
The moment it was connected, a slightly hoarse male voice came over there, asking a little excitedly.
"Mr. Guo, please don't get excited. We have something to ask you about. Are you at home now?"
Wu Rui said without answering directly.
"Isn't it related to the child?"
Mr. Guo asked with some disappointment.
"We're not sure yet. We need you to come over. Also, don't take it too seriously. We just want to confirm with you."
Wu Rui shook his head and answered.
"It's really relevant, okay, okay, let's buy a ticket and go back right away."
Mr. Guo's voice suddenly became louder and he spoke more excitedly.
"...Okay, we'll wait for you."
Seeing him like this, Wu Rui opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but didn't say anything, and then he was silent for a while and replied.
"Okay, okay, let's go to the train station now. We'll be there in the afternoon."
Mr. Guo kept saying hello.
Wu Rui responded, hung up the phone, then shook his head and sighed softly.
Regardless of whether the hundred-year-old lock belongs to the child or not, it is a blow to the couple.
If not, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
If true, the shock would be even greater if the child was no longer alive.
Judging from the current situation, the possibility of the child's absence is very, very high.
"Master, I'll go back first and come back when they arrive."
Chen Luo listened to the entire call. At the end of the call, he sighed softly and stood up.
"Okay! I'll call you when they arrive."
Wu Rui nodded and said.
Then Chen Luo responded and turned around to leave.
After leaving the office building, I got on my beloved bicycle and rode all the way to where I lived.
Return to your residence.
Chen Luo rinsed briefly first, then lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep.
I slept until noon.
After waking up, I went to get some food first, then sat down on the computer and surfed the Internet while waiting for Master's call.
Around two o'clock or almost three o'clock, Chen Luo's cell phone rang.
He picked it up and saw that it was the master calling. Chen Luo answered the call immediately.
"Chen Luo, this couple is here, come here."
Then Wu Rui's voice came over.
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
Chen Luo immediately responded.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Luo got on his bicycle and rushed to the office at a relatively fast speed.
