"Hey, Xiaomeng, why did you remember to call me today?" Xiang Nan was writing when he heard the sound of his cell phone. When he picked it up, he saw that it was Xiaomeng's call. He quickly picked up the call.
"Well, it's okay." Xiao Meng said cautiously, "I'm going to the city with Brother Yishui'er today, and I want to stop by to see you. Please give me your address."
"Oh, what a coincidence. The company just arranged for me to go on a business trip today." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan quickly said, "Well, you can come see me another day."
"Then I will bring you something and put it in your dormitory until you come back to pick it up." Xiao Meng said again.
"Hey, don't go to such trouble. There's nothing in the city, so don't give it to me." Xiang Nan declined, "Okay, my phone is out of battery. We'll talk to you next time. I'll hang up now."
After saying that, he hung up the phone. If we continue to chat, he is really afraid of revealing his secret.
"Brother Yishui, Yongqiang is hesitant and refuses to tell me his address." After Xiao Meng hung up the phone, he looked at Yishui Road worriedly.
"This is troublesome." Liu Yishui frowned and said, "If Yongqiang really lives well, eats well, and nothing happens, why didn't he tell us his address and tell so many lies?"
"Yeah, he's never been like this before." Xiao Meng also said upset, "Brother Yishui, what should we do now?"
"You try giving him another try." Liu Yishui suggested.
Xiaomeng nodded and called again, but was prompted to turn off the phone.
"It's over, we can't contact you." Xiao Meng was so anxious that he almost cried, "What should I do?"
"Meng, don't worry, don't worry, I'll think of a solution." Liu Yishui frowned, but in fact, he had nothing to do.
I had to go back to Xie Xiaomei for advice first. Xiaomei is a college student and a city dweller. She is well-informed and may have some ideas.
"I have an acquaintance in China Mobile. I asked him to help find out where Yongqiang's mobile phone signal is, and we should be able to find him." When Xie Xiaomei heard this, she immediately had an idea.
"Xiaomei, you are so good. You found a solution so quickly." Upon hearing this, Liu Yishui immediately said with admiration.
"Thank you, Xiaomei." Upon hearing this, Xiao Meng quickly thanked you.
"Hey, you're welcome." Xiaomei waved her hand freely, and then called an acquaintance.
…
Soon, an acquaintance helped find the range of Yongqiang’s mobile phone signal and informed Xiaomei.
"Sister, thank you, I will treat you to dinner next time when I go back." Xiaomei smiled, and then told Xiao Meng, "Yongqiang's mobile phone is still in Kaiyuan, and its general location is in the northwest of Kaiyuan County. But which building it is specifically, I don’t know which room it is.”
"It's okay, I'll look for him one by one." Xiaomeng said decisively, she must find Yongqiang.
"Meng, I'll go with you." Liu Yishui said quickly.
"Brother Yishui, no need, I've already troubled you a lot." Xiaomeng waved his hand and said. This time he went to the city to find Yongqiang. He didn't know how long it would take. How could she have the nerve to tire Liu Yishui anymore.
"What are you talking about? You are my sister and Yongqiang is my brother. I shouldn't help." Upon hearing this, Liu Yishui immediately waved his hand and said, "Get in the car, I will take you there now."
Seeing that he was so generous, Xiaomeng was too embarrassed to refuse anymore, so he nodded.
"I'll go too. Although open source is not big, it's not small either. More people, more power." Xiaomei also volunteered.
"Okay." Liu Yishui nodded, and then he took her into the city and started to inquire about the northwest corner of Kaiyuan.
…
Kaiyuan is only a county-level city. It is still 2005 and real estate is still in its infancy, so the entire county is not big.
In addition, Yongqiang's personal characteristics are quite obvious. A college student who wears glasses and is polite is quite rare at the moment.
On the contrary, it is not so easy to find an uncle or an aunt.
The three of them asked and searched, and soon found clues.
There is a student-looking person living in the Liu family courtyard. I don't know his name, and he rarely goes out to hang out.
When the three of them heard this, they hurried over.
I saw that this was really a big yard, with houses built around it. There are a lot of debris piled up in the middle of the yard, which looks quite messy.
"Who are you looking for?" As soon as the three of them got out of the car, someone came out of the main room and asked.
"Does Xie Yongqiang live here?" Liu Yishui asked.
"The second house on the west side." The man pointed.
Liu Yishui, Xie Xiaomei, and Wang Xiaomeng immediately came to the second room on the west side.
Peering in through the dirty glass, you can see that the house is really shabby.
Red brick floors, wooden beds, broken tables, broken chairs... Liu Yishui felt that these conditions were not as good as those in a detention center. It would be really unfair for Yongqiang to really live here.
Then, they all saw someone sleeping topless on the wooden bed. Because he was sleeping on his side, he couldn't see his face, so he couldn't tell whether it was Yongqiang or not.
Xiao Meng boldly stepped forward and knocked on the door.
…
Xiang Nan stayed up all night last night, coding all night, and he didn't rest until nine o'clock in the morning.
At this moment, he was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by a knock on the door.
Xiang Nan sat down and was about to curse a few words to vent his anger when he saw Xiao Meng through the glass, which made him stunned.
"Yongqiang, it's really Yongqiang!" Xiaomeng said excitedly when he saw his face, "Yongqiang, open the door quickly, I'm Xiaomeng~"
Xiang Nan was at a loss for a moment.
He really didn't expect that Xiao Meng would actually come looking for him and find him as soon as he looked for it.
It happened that before he became famous, it was really embarrassing for her to see him when he was at his lowest.
To be honest, if there was a crack in the ground now, Xiang Nan would want to crawl into it.
But God is not so merciful. There are no cracks in the ground except cracks in the bricks.
"Yongqiang, open the door, do you have anything to say?" Liu Yishui also persuaded at this moment.
When Xiang Nan saw it, he became even more embarrassed and dug his toes into the ground in embarrassment.
However, if you extend your head and draw your head with a knife, it will also be a knife if you shrink your head. You can't avoid it if you hide.
Xiang Nan calmed down, passed on the T-shirt, and then walked over.
"Xiaomeng, Brother Yishui, Xiaomei, why are you here?" He opened the door and pretended to be relaxed.
"Yongqiang, what's the matter with you? Why do you live here? Didn't you say you were working at Wang Bing's place?" Xiaomei asked loudly.
Xiaomeng looked at the whole room. I saw that this room was really shabby, without any decent furniture or appliances, and it didn't look like a place for people to live at all.
What especially caught her attention was that there were two leftover steamed buns on the table, and there was a pickle lump next to them. There are bite marks on them.
Obviously, this is what Yongqiang eats. Realizing this, Xiaomeng couldn't help but feel heartache.
"Yongqiang, why are you doing this? Why don't you go back to your home and stay here by yourself?" Liu Yishui asked incomprehensively, "Are you encountering something difficult? You can't tell me."
