Chapter 155: The Tragic Child Whose Identity Was Stolen and Died Tragically (3)
Wen Nuan and Wang Jianshe came in April 1951.
At that time, the original owner and his wife had gone to the original village to look for the child, but they did not find him.
The child had an accident in the winter of 53, so they had to hurry and find the child first before doing anything else.
Now Liu Zhongquan is the deputy minister of the Beijing Public Security Department, and Zhang Min is the chief of the Finance Section of the Beijing Public Security Department. The couple both hold real power.
It is precisely because of these convenient conditions that Wang Jianshe’s later operations will be much simpler.
But the most urgent priority is to find the child first.
The next day, they both took leave, arranged the things at hand, and went south to find their child.
Liu Zhongquan's position came with a car, so the two of them asked the driver to drive directly there.
After walking for three days and two nights, we finally arrived outside the small mountain village where the child was.
Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min first tidied up their appearance, then got out of the car and slowly walked towards the village.
As they walked, Zhang Min said,
"Zhongquan, do you remember? The child has a birthmark on his left chest. We will use this to identify the child later!"
In the past few days, Zhang Min has been digging through all the memories of the original owner, and finally dug out the birthmark of the child that the original owner herself did not remember from the deepest part of her memory.
With this birthmark, it is much easier to identify the child.
Moreover, they did not tell anyone except the driver when they came this time, so the black-hearted couple probably did not have enough time to exchange the child.
The two of them discussed in low voices as they walked towards the house in their memories.
As soon as I got nearby, I saw a thin boy dragging a bundle of firewood towards home with difficulty.
The two looked at each other and walked forward quickly.
"Hello, little boy!" Zhang Min greeted the little boy softly.
The little boy stopped and looked at Zhang Min in front of him with some numbness.
Zhang Min looked at the little boy in front of her who was wearing tattered clothes and only a pair of worn straw sandals. Her nose felt sore and she wanted to cry.
She gently wiped the corners of her eyes, knowing that these were the remaining emotions of the original owner.
However, the little boy in front of me is indeed lovable!
"What can I do for you?" The little boy's voice was a little hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time.
"We would like to ask where Zhang Defa's fortune is. Can you tell us?" Zhang Min asked softly.
When the little boy heard that someone was looking for Zhang Defa, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He was looking for his own family?
Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min had been paying attention to the child's expression. Seeing the surprise in the child's eyes, they guessed the child's identity. It seemed that this was the little cub they were looking for.
"That's my home, come with me," said the little boy, who seemed only five or six years old, but his words were full of vicissitudes of life.
Zhang Min and Liu Zhongquan felt heartbroken when they saw this, and at the same time, their hatred for Zhang Defa and the evil couple became even stronger.
Zhang Min pretended to be surprised and said, "So this is your house, that's great!"
Then he quickly took out a piece of candy from his pocket, peeled it open and handed it to the little boy, "Here, have some candy!"
The little boy looked at the aunt in front of him with a gentle and kind smile, and then at the candy in her hand that exuded a strong milky aroma. He couldn't help swallowing several mouthfuls of saliva. He had only seen his parents give this thing to his brother, and he had never eaten it before.
"I, I don't, ugh!"
Seeing that the little boy wanted to refuse, Zhang Min directly stuffed the candy into the boy's mouth.
The little boy subconsciously wanted to vomit it out, but he was tempted by the smell of milk and was reluctant to open his mouth.
Looking at the boy's puffy smile, Zhang Min reached out and took the boy's hand, "Let's go, take us home to find Zhang Defa, okay?"
The little boy seemed to have not yet recovered from the sweetness in his mouth and stood there in a daze without saying a word.
Liu Zhongquan stepped forward and picked up the bundle of firewood that was too heavy for the little boy, and held the boy's other hand, "Let's go find Zhang Defa."
The little boy came back to his senses and moved his hands slightly, but he was reluctant to break free. Their hands were so warm!
The little boy, immersed in the wonderful sweetness in his mouth and the warmth in his palms, did not notice that even without his guidance, Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min were still walking towards his house.
As soon as they walked outside a small dilapidated courtyard, Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min heard a burst of cursing coming from the yard.
"What a damn bastard! I just asked him to go get some firewood and he never came back. Just wait and see how I'll deal with him when I get back!"
The little boy shuddered unconsciously when he heard the cursing voice.
Zhang Min felt the child shivering, and quickly squeezed the boy's palm, then put away the anger on her face and signaled Liu Zhongquan to knock on the door.
There was murderous intent in Liu Zhongquan's eyes. When he saw his wife's gesture, he took a deep breath, suppressed the violence in his heart, let go of the little hand in his hand, walked to the fence door and started knocking.
"Who is it?" The cursing voice just now sounded again.
"Open the door!" Liu Zhongquan shouted directly.
"Damn it, he's sick!" Dirty words were heard in the room again.
Outside the house, Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min's faces became increasingly darker.
The original couple should really be allowed to see the true face of this black-hearted couple!
You know, in their previous life, this black-hearted couple pretended to be gentle and reasonable in front of the original owner. How could they be like the country shrews they are now?
The dirty words gradually disappeared, footsteps were heard, and a middle-aged lady in tattered clothes came out of the house cursing.
He wanted to yell loudly outside the house, but when he saw Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min, he swallowed the dirty words that were about to come out of his mouth.
She was not stupid. Just by looking at the way Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min were dressed, she knew they were people she couldn't afford to mess with.
The originally ferocious face suddenly became flattering.
"Hey, comrades, I wonder what's going on with you?" He said as he opened the fence gate.
After opening the fence gate, the woman saw the boy between Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min again. Her face suddenly darkened and she wanted to scold the little boy, but was interrupted by Zhang Min who had been paying attention to her expression.
"Is this Zhang Defa's fortune?" Zhang Min's voice was cold.
The woman's expression changed in an instant, and she became flattering again, "Oh, yes, this is Zhang Defa!"
Because she was a woman, Liu Zhongquan took a step back and let Zhang Min step forward to negotiate.
"In 45, a sister from your clan gave you a baby boy to raise, right?"
When the woman heard Zhang Min's words, she was stunned at first, then a flash of fear crossed her face. At the same time, she looked at the little boy nervously.
Liu Zhongquan and Zhang Min, who had been observing the woman's expression, became more certain after seeing her like this that the little boy was the one they were looking for.
"I'm asking you, is it true?" Zhang Min's voice became louder.
"Oh, yes, yes," the woman shuddered, then lowered her head and replied in fear.
"Is that the child?" Zhang Min pulled the little boy forward and asked again in a cold voice.
The woman looked at the boy's miserable appearance and didn't know what to say.
How could this happen? How could this happen? Didn't he say he was dead? Why did he suddenly come to me?!
