Who could it be and where could have the child gone?
By the time Chu He finished with the admission procedure, Meng Qingxue had already been moved to a recuperation ward. As soon as the latter saw her entering the room, her face turned pale and tears immediately flowed helplessly.
“Chu He, Baby Chu is gone!”
The lady cop stopped in her tracks, her face freezing for a while, yet at the same time, she found the news to be unbelievable!
She thought that her son had been in Mu Yancheng’s hands all this time!
From what she could see, the man had come looking for his girlfriend with no intention of hurting her or the unborn child. Otherwise, he would not have gone to such great lengths of sending her to the hospital for help.
Her son was on her mind when she first stepped into the hospital, but at that time, Meng Qingxue was in a critical condition, and she could not afford to think of other matters. In the end, she did not bring this up.
Now, however, her friend was telling her that the boy had gone missing…
“My son isn’t with you?” Chu He questioned with bewilderment, her face turning a shade paler.
“Two men broke into the house in the middle of the night and took Baby Chu with them. I tried desperately chasing after them, but I couldn’t catch up!” cried the pregnant woman on the sicked forlornly. “Chu He, it’s all my fault; it’s all my fault! I dragged Baby Chu into this!”
The policewoman was unable to understand the situation for a while, and in the end, she only caught the key words. “Did you just say that my son was taken away by two men?”
“I don’t know who those people are! They said that they’re looking for a child, so I thought at first that they’re men who had been dispatched by Yancheng…”
The policewoman inhaled deeply and sharply, then her breathing quickened suddenly.
…
There was a loud PONG.
In the darkness, Baby Chu was awakened by a violent movement.
He opened his eyes abruptly and found that the car had stopped at some point. The loud bang was the sound of the passenger door closing.
He looked outside the car window and saw the far side of the sky turning lighter. It was actually dawn.
Outside the window, there was a vast open area, but instead of a field, it resembled a wasteland overgrown with weeds.
He was still in a daze when the car door was pulled open at once.
This startled the frail-looking boy into immediately retreating to a corner. With his mouth taped, he could only let out a muffled sound of fear. The man did not look fierce, but to a child who was forcibly brought to a strange environment, he naturally felt lonesome and helpless, which magnified his fear even more.
The man stomped onto the vehicle, reached out, and grabbed the boy’s collar. The latter tried shrinking further backward, desperately shaking his head at the same time.
The man immediately scolded him. “Come over here! Sh*t! You’d better behave!”
This frightened the kid even more as he balled himself into a corner without moving. The man lost his patience, and after prodding his body forward, he took hold of the boy’s arm and dragged him out of the car.
Being manhandled and dragged out of the corner, the boy stumbled. This caused him to roll out of the vehicle and fall to the ground.
“Wuu…”
It’s painful!
His eyes moistened in pain.
The man kicked him several times. “Didn’t I tell you to behave? You could’ve suffered less!”
Baby Chu was a piteous sight to behold as he looked at the adult with tear-soaked eyes, which had gone red and swollen by then.
This only irritated the man further and he pulled and stacked the boy on top of his shoulder. This time around, the latter was better behaved and crouched obediently on his shoulder without kicking a fuss after getting a beating from the abductor.
This was one of the most remote suburbs in the capital. It was formerly a famous industrial area, so there were many factories located within the vicinity.
