As the two of them walked out the door.
The muggy feeling outside hit his face, and Xie Chen's nose also smelled a hot smell.
Compare with the previous one.
Now there are a lot of weeds growing in the corner directly in front of the swimming pool.
Although it has not reached the point of flooding, it is actually not far behind.
After all, how could a swimming pool with real passenger flow allow weeds to grow in the courtyard with cement walls?
But now at least one thing has been confirmed.
The environment outside should have been synchronized with that in the swimming pool, and there is basically no possibility of change.
But if this is the case, it is actually contradictory.
After all, the swimming pool is like this, so will there be anyone in the security room outside?
You must know that the security guard he met before had a nonchalant attitude. If the swimming pool couldn't even pay his wages, Xie Chen was sure that he would be the first to run away.
As for whether I can find him now...
It can only be said that it is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Xie Chen turned around and came to the front of the swimming pool. After turning around, there was the security room.
The relatively short building still felt familiar, but it was surrounded by a lot of weeds, and it looked even more desolate than the inner wall of the swimming pool.
Xie Chen looked around and didn't see any parked vehicles.
The last time I saw the security room, there were many vehicles parked around it.
After all, there was indeed a lot of customer traffic at that time, and we could still survive on one day's turnover alone.
But now we really don’t even have a bicycle.
Xie Chen sighed.
The woman next to him walked forward in a familiar manner, looking around as if searching for something.
Xie Chen followed him with doubts in his heart, and the two just walked around the corner and went straight to the door of the security room.
But the amazing thing is that it is still open under such circumstances?
Xie Chen frowned.
Logically speaking, with the character of that security guard, it is absolutely impossible for him to still be working in this security room!
Could it be that the director of this swimming pool can still pay the security guard regularly?
In fact, if this is the case, it is not impossible.
Before Xie Chen could react, the woman walked in angrily.
Xie Chen panicked and wanted to go over and hold her, but it was already a step too late.
The woman kicked open the closed door and walked into the security room.
"The old immortal is hiding here again!"
The tone of his words was full of disgust, and even if people were outside, Xie Chen could hear it.
"Immortal?"
Xie Chen murmured in his heart.
The woman's words reminded her of the old man who was looking for his grandson in the swimming pool.
I didn't quite understand why the old man was so afraid of this woman.
Is it possible that the relationship is between father-in-law and daughter-in-law?
If he had lost his grandson, then it would be clear why the woman was so angry and why the old man looked like that.
Worried that things were out of his control, Xie Chen immediately got into the security room, fearing that one of the parties would become overly emotional and do something outrageous.
As soon as he entered the door, what he saw was the security guard sitting at the previous tea table.
The old man sat in front of him.
This situation was exactly the same as when I came in to drink tea.
No wonder when he saw the old man, he would say that he had been in the security room all afternoon.
If she had lost her grandson, and her daughter-in-law complained about her, she would have gone into the swimming pool to look for him.
In order to avoid her, I had to stay outside the swimming pool.
If you think about it carefully, the old man is quite pitiful.
When he saw his daughter-in-law coming in and abusing him, the old man also looked evasive and did not even dare to look at her.
It was for this reason that the old man didn't see himself coming in slowly.
Xie Chen stood behind the woman and did not interrupt.
"If you hadn't been running around with Xiao Xiang all day long, would you have lost him?!"
"If you don't take care of yourself and stay at home, why are you wandering around outside?"
"You've made your grandson disappear, so why don't you make yourself invisible?"
The old man just lowered his head after being scolded like this.
It could be seen that his hands on his knees were tightly clenching his trouser legs.
He was probably holding something back in his heart, but he finally heard the old man say it.
"You spend more time with my grandson, why don't you ask an old man like me to take him out to play..."
Halfway through this sentence, the second half was already so choked up that if I had stood a little further away, I probably wouldn't have been able to hear it clearly.
Just listening to the confrontation between the two, Xie Chen actually felt a little uncomfortable.
"You don't have to look for it."
"Go home quickly."
The woman's tone softened slightly, and she probably felt guilty after hearing what the old man said.
Although she said it harshly, she actually knew that it was not the old man's fault that these things happened.
"go back……"
The old man murmured in his mouth, as if he was saying something ridiculous.
"etc!"
The old man paused and stood up immediately.
Probably because of his reaction, his wife-in-law's tone softened a lot, and she realized something was wrong.
"Let me go back?"
"Did Xiaoxiang find it?"
The old man, who was a little timid at first, now ran up to his daughter-in-law, grabbed her shoulders and shook her with hope.
He asked again impatiently.
"Tell me quickly, has Xiao Xiang been found?"
"Take me to see my grandson quickly!"
"After so many days, he must be hungry."
"I have to take him to eat something to replenish his health quickly."
"No, no, let's go home and eat."
The old man let go of his hands tremblingly. It was obvious that he was very excited. He even had to hold on to the tables around him and was a little unsteady even when standing.
The security guards who were drinking tea and saying nothing stood up and supported the old man.
But the old man waved his hand, indicating that there was nothing wrong with him, and then turned to the woman and asked:
"You take Xiaoxiang back first."
"Remember to pay attention to safety on the road. I will go to the market to buy vegetables by myself, and I will cook you a meal that I am good at when I get back."
"I need to quickly recuperate my good grandson."
It can be seen that the old man's whole body is now filled with joy, but Xiechen himself is a little silent.
As he spoke, the old man was stunned again.
There were a few tears hanging on the woman's face, and they fell heavily to the ground.
Even the surrounding air was a little solid, and the sound of teardrops popping was extremely obvious.
"Why, why are you crying?"
Seeing his daughter-in-law's appearance, the old man began to feel a little at a loss again.
The woman couldn't say such cruel words at this time. You must know that the old man's physical condition was not particularly good in all aspects. He was so happy and sad that he could not bear the blow of reality.
The woman shook her head, her voice choked with sobs.
"It's okay, Dad."
"You go back first, just wait at home..."
Although the old man still wanted to refuse, seeing his daughter-in-law's appearance, he could only hesitate and nod.
After slowly walking to the door, he noticed Xie Chen's presence.
"Did you help find my grandson?"
"Thank you so much."
The old man held his own hand with trembling hands, which made Xie Chen at a loss.
After dilly-dallying for a long time, the old man finally went out.
But in the end, he held the door frame with one hand and turned to the woman and asked.
"Actually, I still want to take a look at Xiao Xiang..."
"Where is he now?"
Xie Chen could only force up a smile, which looked very fake.
"He has been taken to the hospital to receive nutritional fluid first. Don't worry, it is used to recover his body."
"When I went there, I kept saying that I wanted to see grandpa."
"If you, old man, want to prepare anything, just go ahead and go."
After hearing what Xie Chen said, the smile on the old man's face became even brighter.
"Okay, okay!"
"I'm going to prepare now!"
"Eat my grandson until his belly is full tonight!"
Every word the old man said seemed to be so sonorous and powerful.
Seeing his leaving figure, Xie Chen had no choice but to turn around in despair.
At this time, the woman covered her mouth and collapsed on the ground with her feet sobbing. She didn't know how to tell her father-in-law the truth.
The security guard patted the woman on the back and returned to the tea table.
Then he glanced at Xie Chen, but did not speak. Instead, he looked at the woman.
"The old man cares about his grandson very much."
"If you really haven't found it, it's better not to lie to him."
Therefore, from the atmosphere present, we can still get some clues, and we can roughly deduce that what he and the woman said were to coax the old man.
But it does not rule out that the security guard knows the inside story of the matter, and he already knows in his heart that Xiao Xiang has died tragically long ago.
The woman who burst into tears had no way to respond to him.
Xie Chen came to the tea table with a heavy heart and sat down slowly.
"Do you know the contact information of the curator?"
Xie Chen didn't want to go around too much with him, so he asked straight to the point.
The security guard had just picked up the teapot and made tea. Hearing Xie Chen's question, he frowned.
"What are you looking for him for?"
"With the way the swimming pool is now, what kind of trouble can happen?"
Xie Chen shook his head.
"It's something else. I want to find a chance to ask about it."
The security guard raised his lips and smiled with a little contempt.
"Is there anything else we can talk about with him?"
"If you really want to say something, you might as well tell me directly. I guess he won't take it to heart anyway."
"Are you familiar with him?"
Xie Chen grasped the key point and immediately asked.
"Familiar?"
"That's out of the question."
"But there are so many people looking for him, and you have to give a reason that can convince him, otherwise I won't call and ask for trouble."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
Xie Chen looked at him and noticed the difficulty.
It was already obvious what the security guard wanted to express.
It's one thing to make a phone call or not.
Whether the curator will listen or come is another matter.
It depends on what exactly you are looking for him for?
