It was already dark when An wanted to rush to the Splendid Garden. Stone lanterns were lit one after another in the park. There were far fewer people than during the day and it was also cleaner.

The garden was very large, and she walked around several times without finding An Zimo. Seeing that the night was getting darker and darker, the uneasiness lingering in her heart expanded, and countless terrifying thoughts came out, making it difficult for her to stay rational.

At this time, Pei Yizhou called, and his soft voice slightly soothed Anxiang's impatience.

"You come back first. I have sent people to look for him and also contacted the police. They will be able to help us find clues soon."

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about me, I, I'm looking for you." She looked around, not missing any corner, "You guys wait for me at home, just give me a call when Mo Mo comes back."

As soon as I finished saying this, the screen flashed twice and then went black.

out of battery.

She was deeply discouraged, holding her cell phone and continuing to search around.

An wanted to walk for a long time, her legs were sore and her heels hurt. Her body was very tired, and her heart was even more uncomfortable. She was very angry, and more importantly, she was worried. She was worried that there was something wrong with An Zimo, and she was also worried that he would never come back.

.

"Mother-in-law, have you seen a little boy? He is about three or four years old. He is so tall and very beautiful. He also carries a small black schoolbag." An Xiang bent down to ask the old man on the chair and described it carefully.

Characteristics of the son.

The old lady thought about it for a moment and pointed forward: "There was such a child half an hour ago. He seemed to have walked away from that street."

"Thank you."

An wanted to say thank you, then turned and walked in the direction pointed by the old lady.

As the night deepened, the crowds on the road gradually became sparse. She walked around several streets without seeing a single person. When she was hesitating to go home, a black shadow flashed under her eyelids.

The environment was dark, and she couldn't see clearly. She could only vaguely catch a glimpse of a bear pendant.

That was the toy she hung on An Zimo's little school bag.

"Mo Mo?" An Xiang had no time to think and hurriedly caught up.

"Momo, is that you?"

The footsteps were getting farther and farther, so she sped up and turned the corner into another street.

Through the cold ray of moonlight, An wanted to see a skinny body hunched next to the trash can. He was chewing something with his head down, and a strange whimper came from his throat.

Looking down, he saw a dirty little bear pendant sticking out of his trouser pocket.

It was indeed... the one she gave to An Zimo.

An Xiang's pupils tightened, and he took a trembling step forward. He kicked a stone with his toes and made a faint collision sound. This sound immediately made the strange man not far away stop his movements. His limbs seemed to be rusty, and he made a sound when he turned his head.

A harsh creaking sound.

For a moment, that face was completely revealed in front of An Xiang's eyes.

He was too thin, with no fat at all, as if there was only a skeleton left in his body. The dry wrinkled skin wrapped the bones, and the eye sockets were deeply sunken. A pair of bloodshot eyes shone with a scarlet light like a beast in the dark night.

The man's fangs were exposed, his face was stained with blood and animal fur, and the wild cat held tightly in his hands had been drained of blood, leaving only a pair of dry bones.

An Xiang's face turned pale and she wanted to run away, but her feet felt like they were nailed to the ground and couldn't move at all.

"Hungry……"

"Hungry...so hungry..."

He stood up unsteadily from the ground and limped towards An Xiang.

"Really, let me help you sit in my car first, and the people from the Supervision Bureau will be here shortly."

As he spoke, An Yanze helped An Xiang up. Seeing how embarrassed she was, he added, "The old street is very messy. Ever since the new street on the Jinxiu Garden side was built, some gangsters have regarded this place as a gathering place. Even if they are crazy,

If you don’t go out, there are other random people, so it’s too dangerous for you to appear here alone.”

An Yanze also happened to drive by. If he hadn't caught a glimpse of An Xiang who looked familiar, he probably wouldn't have stopped.

He opened the back door and asked An Xiang to sit inside with her legs on the steps of the road.

"Let me look at your feet." An Yanze crouched down and carefully rolled up An Xiang's left trouser leg.

The ankle was very swollen. He gently touched the area around the wound and breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, no bones were injured. I'll call a car to take you to the hospital now."

An Xiang shook her head. She had no time to go to the hospital. More important than these minor injuries was An Zimo's whereabouts.

It was almost midnight. The later the time went on, the more dangerous An Zimo's situation became.

"Mr. Ze...an." An Xiang swallowed back the voice, "Can I borrow your mobile phone?"

"Okay." An Yanze handed him the phone without hesitation.

She held her cell phone and wanted to call Pei Yizhou, but found that she didn't remember Pei Yizhou's phone number at all.

An Xiang stared at the lit screen alone for a few seconds, then suddenly remembered that An Yanze seemed to know Pei Yizhou, and maybe he had his contact information.

"Mr. An, do you know Pei Yizhou's phone number?"

An Yanze was stunned for a moment and nodded: "But he might not answer."

"Why?"

An Yanze smiled bitterly: "After the incident at the last party, An Ruoming went to Pei Yizhou to cause a scene. After that, the Pei family terminated all cooperation with us, and even I was angered."

An Ruoming always did things without worrying about the consequences. His impulsiveness brought huge losses to the company. Naturally, An Yanze, as his biological brother, could not escape the involvement. Pei Yizhou made an angry comment, which even attracted a scolding from An's elders.

"But I can send him a text message and maybe he will read it."

An Yanze found Pei Yizhou's contact information among the contacts and handed her the phone again, "You write it, remember to write your name too."

An Xiang nodded and wrote the message carefully.

At this time, the supervisory bureau came to arrest people. An Yanze and An Xiang went there together as parties to the incident to explain the situation. Seeing that An Xiang was frightened and injured, the supervisors immediately made a request to send her to the hospital. An Xiang politely refused.

Then the phone call came in——

"Anxiang?"

This is Pei Yizhou.

She turned her hand away, clenched her phone and endured her grievance, asking, "How is it? Is Zimo back?"

"Back." Pei Yizhou paused for a moment, "Are you crying?"

"First... please leave me alone." An Xiang sat down on the curb with difficulty and stretched out his left leg to relieve the pain, "How did Mo Mo get back? Is he injured?"

"No injuries. He was eating in a restaurant when my people found him."

Eating in a restaurant...

This answer made her angry.

"Do you need me to send someone to pick you up?"

"No, I'll go back right away."

An Xiang calmly hung up the phone and limped up to An Yanze, "Thank you for helping me. This is the address of my shop. Next time you come, I can treat you to dinner for free." An Xiang was taken away from there.

He took out a milk tea shop business card from the chewed bag and stuffed it into An Yanze's palm along with his mobile phone.

"I'm going back first, goodbye."

At this time, an empty car happened to be passing by. She intercepted it, bent over and sat in it.

After the car shadow disappeared, An Yanze lowered his eyes and looked at the business card.

——An Xiang.
