Chapter 288 Going to Gaoyang
Old Master Qi just stood there looking at the broken bridge for half an hour.
Then he turned around with a staggering step, and Xiao Ding hurried over to support him.
"Xiaoshu, grandpa is going back with your aunt today."
He Shu didn't expect that his grandfather was going back to Dadu so soon, and hurried to try to keep him.
"Grandpa, please stay a few more days. My godfather wants to treat you to a good meal, and I can also walk around with you here."
"Haha, let's not go shopping anymore. Grandpa is old and can't walk anymore. What's the point of him accompanying an old man like me?"
"Grandpa..."
"Alright, alright. We've already booked the tickets. Just coming to see your mother will be enough."
Grandpa insisted on returning to Dadu, and He Shu was unable to stop him.
He hurriedly called his godfather and told him about it.
After He Shu sent his grandfather and others to the airport, his godfather was already there, carrying two large bags of things.
"Old man, sister-in-law, I don't have anything good either. Please don't despise these specialties from Dan River."
Zhu Yu hurriedly took it over: "Brother Zhao, you are too polite."
"I feel so embarrassed that you always ask Xiaoshu to bring me things."
Grandpa smiled and said, "Xiao Zhao, don't be embarrassed. You are Xiao Shu'er's godfather, and we are all family. We will accept it this time, but don't do ."
"Okay." Zhao Qishui smiled and nodded repeatedly: "You are in such a hurry to go back? It's not easy to come here."
"Haha, people become homesick when they get old. When you have nothing to do in the future, come to Dadu more often and visit my home."
After chatting for a while, it was time to board the plane.
He Shu and Zhao Qishui escorted them inside.
Aunt Zhu Yu turned around and took He Shu's hand: "When are you going to come home? Call me in advance."
"I understand, aunt. Please give me a call when you get home."
"Okay, Xiao Ding and I are here with you. Are you still worried? Go back quickly and have fun and relax during the holiday."
Watching grandpa and his friends pass the security check, Zhao Qishui sighed, "I left before I could even treat them properly."
He Shu knew that Dan River was his grandfather's sad place, so it was understandable that he didn't want to stay there any longer.
"Godfather, let's go back too."
…
In the next few days, He Shu did his homework at home.
Professor Zhang assigned a lot of homework, and He Shu also needed to read a lot of books to master the knowledge.
On the contrary, it is the godfather who is busier, because the Baby Come Home charity website needs a few volunteers to go to the neighboring city to promote and disseminate information.
My godfather signed up immediately and drove his old car there.
One day, when He Shu was checking the posts he had posted , he saw a reply saying that there was a homeless person in Gaoyang who looked like the child in the post He Shu posted.
He Shuli immediately contacted the person who replied to the post privately and left a V signal.
A few hours later, someone added him as a friend. He Shu asked him if he had any photos. The person quickly sent him two photos taken on the street.
The person in the photo has long, messy hair and a beard, and it’s actually impossible to tell what he looks like.
Moreover, there are only photos of Zhao Yan when he was four years old. After so many years, who knows what he looks like now.
Perhaps it was a psychological effect, the enthusiastic person who replied to the post said that the homeless man's eyes looked very similar to those of little Zhao Yan, and He Shu also felt that they were somewhat similar.
So he asked the person to leave his specific address and immediately looked up the high-speed rail information to Gaoyang.
Gaoyang is the city next to Danhe, and it only takes about an hour to get there by high-speed rail.
After finding out that there was a train in the evening, He Shuli immediately packed up and rushed to the station.
Before leaving, He Shu went to his godfather's room, found a few short hairs on the pillow and bed, and carefully put them away.
He didn't plan to tell his godfather first. Every disappointment like this was a big blow to his godfather.
After getting on the bus to Gaoyang, He Shu thought about it and called Ji Wanying, because she was from Gaoyang and was very familiar with the place.
Ji Wanying was very surprised to hear that He Shu was planning to come to Gaoyang. He Shu asked her on the phone about the authenticity of the address.
Ji Wanying didn't go there often so she wasn't very familiar with the place: "I'll ask my dad and I 'll call you later."
After hanging up the phone, Ji Wanying suddenly felt a little nervous. He Shu actually came to her city. Although he didn't come for her, it made her feel a little excited.
It was still unknown what He Shu was doing there, but Ji Wanying did not dare to delay and hurried out of the room to find her father who was watching TV.
"Dad, do you know there's a gatehouse over at the old Baihui shopping mall?"
"Gateway?" Ji Wanying's father thought for a moment and said, "It seems that there used to be a gateway, but it was demolished a long time ago, right?"
"Just be sure."
"Oh, I don't remember. I don't usually go there. What are you doing?"
Ji Wanying frowned slightly: "A classmate of mine wants to go there to look for someone, but I'm not sure if the address is correct. Dad, do you know anyone who lives there?"
"No, why do you care about your classmates' affairs?"
Ji Wanying's father was not so enthusiastic to help a child he didn't know.
After hearing this, Ji Wanying didn't force it. She knew what kind of person her father was, so she turned around and went back to her room.
After a while, Ji Wanying came out with a small bag on her back: "I'm going out for a while."
"Where are you going? Why are you running out at this time?"
Ji Wanying ignored her father's shouting and walked straight out of the house.
Then he looked at the time and ran to the high-speed rail station to wait for He Shu.
A little after ten o'clock in the evening, the train from Danhe to Gaoyang arrived at the station.
He Shu got off the bus, and while sending messages to the person who replied to the message on his mobile phone, he quickly followed the crowd out of the station.
"What tree!"
Ji Wanying shouted, but He Shu didn't hear her, so she hurried over and grabbed him.
"Ji Wanying? Why are you here?"
"I'm here to wait for you. You don't know anyone here, how are you going to find someone? Can I go with you?"
He Shu was a little surprised: "It's so late, I won't bother you."
"What's the point of talking about whether it's troublesome or not among classmates? I'm already out, let's go."
Ji Wanying turned and left, and He Shu had no choice but to follow.
"Have you contacted that person?"
"Well, he said he would wait for me over there."
"Then let's take a taxi there." Ji Wanying stopped a taxi and told the driver the address.
After they set off, Ji Wanying asked curiously, "What are you here for?"
He Shu did not hide it: "I have a brother who was abducted by human traffickers when he was a child. Someone said that he saw a homeless man who looked a bit like him."
"Is that the one you posted on the campus bulletin board?"
"right."
Ji Wanying didn't ask any more questions after hearing that. She had read the post posted by He Shu and also helped to forward it.
The taxi drove for about twenty minutes and arrived at an old town area. The buildings here looked quite old.
After getting off the car, Ji Wanying asked He Shu where the man was waiting, identified the direction, and took He Shu towards the Old Broadway Shopping Mall.
There is also an overpass here. After the two of them got on the overpass, Ji Wanying did not let He Shu go on.
"Send him a message and ask if he's near the overpass."
He Shu nodded, and after sending the message, the other party called him directly.
From the voice it was a middle-aged man. Knowing He Shu had arrived, he asked him to wait at the overpass.
Less than five minutes after I hung up the phone, a man about thirty years old wearing baggy shorts and a vest came over from the opposite side.
She was wearing a pair of flip-flops and ran over to me with a "clack clack" sound.
