After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the two finally appeared.
Qi Mohan’s eyes suddenly brightened: “Qing’er, Mujin, is Miss Si Si back?”
Both eyes were red, obviously from crying just now.
Hearing his uncle’s question, she jumped into his arms with short legs.
Xiao Qing raised her head and said with a cry: “Uncle, the uncle on the phone said that sister… sister should be… wuwuwu… Qing’er wants sister wuwuwu …”
Xiao Mujin saw his sister crying. He wiped her tears and said: “Uncle, is my sister in danger? Mujin also wants my sister…”
Qi Mohan’s heart was as sharp as a knife at the moment, and he had no intention of comforting the two of them.
Imperial Concubine Yun was at a loss as to what to do, but she still felt the need to remind Qi Mohan.
“Mohan, we will help with Si Si’s matter. We are all worried about this.”
“Mother, I know this.” Qi Mohan responded and handed the recorder that had just recorded his words to Xiao Mujin.
“Mujin, there is something I said here. If that uncle is still talking on the phone, you should play what I said to him, and then record his words with a recorder and bring it to me.”
Xiao Mujin and Xiao Qing received a new task, which was to go back to Si Si’s place and continue waiting. This time, they had to wait only for news about their sister, but also for the uncle to speak on the mobile phone.
At this time, Tang Xu was discussing with the police on duty in the police station.
“Police Officer, please help me. I also know the regulations of our country. You can only report a crime after 24 hours. But my friend’s situation is very special.”
“Her parents had just passed away in an accident, and the family business was taken over by her, a young lady, who had just reached 20. There is no guarantee that others would not do anything to her to covet it. I feel like she was kidnapped.”
“If the police station had filed a case earlier, her safety would have been higher.”
Tang Xu said a lot, but the policeman replied with a few words with a straight face: “Sir, we need to act by the regulations.”
One sentence made Tang Xu speechless.
Tonight was the first time Tang Xu came to the police station to plead with the police, but he was still ruthlessly rejected.
Tang Xu took out his mobile phone in despair and dialed Si Si’s number again.
The person who answered the phone still had the same voice as before, and the expression of hope on Tang Xu’s face became more intense.
[Little Friend, your sister Si Si hasn’t come home yet, has she?]
Xiao Qing was also in a very low mood: [Yes, my sister hasn’t come back yet.]
While talking, the girl yawned unconsciously. This was the first time since she was a child that she had not slept all night.
When there was no news of Si Si’s return, Tang Xu was about to hang up the phone, but suddenly he heard a boy’s voice on the other end of the phone.
[Uncle, wait a moment. My uncle has something to tell you.] Xiao Mujin took out the recording pen, and when he finished speaking, Qi Mohan’s voice sounded over there.
[Hello, I am, Qi Mohan, I also care about Si Si just like you…]
This sound was very unfamiliar to Tang Xu, and he knew clearly that it was played by a recorder.
[Who are you?]
When he asked, Tang Xu was also thinking about the relationship between this man and Si Si, why he cared about Si Si as much as he did, and why he could also get her mobile phone.
But he also knew that it was important to find Si Si’s whereabouts now, and this was the time when he asked too many questions.
The rich male voice on the other end of the phone no longer answered but was replaced by the original milky voice.
“This is my uncle. My uncle can’t chat directly on the mobile phone, he can only use a recorder to transmit information. If Uncle has anything to say, just say it now. Qing’er and his brother will record it with a recorder and give it to our uncle. ”
The girl’s words made Tang Xu feel dizzy. If they wanted to communicate, they just needed to give Si Si’s mobile phone to their uncle or call himself. Why go to such trouble to use recording?
Tang Xu thought this way and said this: [You can give your uncle your mobile phone so we can talk to me directly.]
Xiao Mujin responded quickly because his grandmother and uncle often told him and his sister that they could tell the secrets between them and their beautiful sister to the outside world.
Even the two of them understood something by listening to the conversations between the adults. They and the beautiful sister were not from the same era.
They don’t know what era was, but they know that no one can come here except them.
[Uncle, my uncle can’t talk on this mobile phone now. I still want to record your words.]
Although Tang Xu still bypassed this detour, he still wanted to get serious with the two children.
[In this case, you can start recording now!]
After that, there was a long paragraph of what he said to Qi Mohan: [Hello, I am Tang Xu, Si Si’s senior when she was in high school. I had dinner with Si Si tonight and left the hotel at around nine o’clock.]
[On the way to take her home, my car broke down. Si Si said she had something to do and needed to get home urgently, so she took a taxi and left first.]
[I calculated the time when she would be home and called her. But until now, it was only these two little friends who were answering the mobile phone, but there was still no news about Si Si.]
After Tang Xu said these words, he didn’t hang up the phone immediately but remained connected.
Because Xiao Mujin told him that he would be able to bring his uncle’s reply soon.
Xiao Qing’er was waiting at Si Si’s place with the mobile phone in her hands, while Xiao Mujin went back to find Qi Mohan with the voice recorder.
Tang Xu didn’t know that Qi Mohan was from ancient times, so his speech was entirely in modern terms. Qi Mohan could not understand many things at all.
Such as, after nine o’clock, the car broke down, and took a taxi.
However, he was very smart and could guess through analysis.
It should be at night, and Si Si wanted to come back when the car broke down, so she took a taxi. This taxi should be a means of transportation just like the carriage or ox cart they use here.
In other words, Si Si and Tang Xu separated on the road. Tang Xu saw her getting into a taxi with his own eyes. From then on, there was no contact between them.
Tang Xu’s paragraph was about the time and process of his separation from Si Si, without any analysis of his own. It can be said that Qi Mohan felt lonely listening to these words.
Qi Mohan knew that Tang Xu was still waiting for his reply on the other end of the phone, so he picked up the recorder and continued to record the conversation.
[After you found out that Si Si didn’t come home, did you contact her relatives or friends?]
After saying this, Xiao Mujin returned to Si Si’s room with the recording pen and played the recording to Tang Xu.
Tang Xu was waiting for the news and kept guessing about Qi Mohan’s identity. After all, he wanted to pursue Si Si, and he had never heard of Si Si having a boyfriend.
