The little girl held her mother's arm in fear, and her mother also held the little girl's hand more tightly.
Luoqiu had met the mother and daughter on the train to St. Petersburg.
They were a family with a story … But now, the master of the family was missing.
It was late at night, and the wind was strong outside. It was even colder near the lake, but the light in the house and the soft sofa seemed to give the mother some warmth.
She was surprised to meet the young man on the train in this place, but the disappearance of her husband completely covered this subtle surprise.
"We were going to go through this mountain road to my husband's hometown. He wanted to get off the train to relieve himself, so he asked us to stay in the car … But he didn't come back after half an hour. I had to get off the train to find him, but … "
The girl's mother painfully covered her face, sobbing, "I only found his phone on the ground."
"Did you call the police?" Ryan, one of the young men, was the first to speak after listening to the story.
The girl's mother shook her head, taking out her phone, "I don't know why, but it keeps showing that the server is out of service … I have to ask for help."
The young people looked at each other. Allie took out her phone, saying in shock, "I can't get the signal either."
"Me too." Gloria also looked down at her phone.
"Me too."
"Me too …"
Seeing Ryan and the other three looking at him at the same time, Luo Qiu threw out his phone and shook his head, "I think mine is the same."
"Isn't this place in the server?" Ryan was stunned. "But before I came in, I could still use the Internet. When did that happen …"
"Now it's not the time to think about the signal, but how to help this lady." Allie suddenly bit her thumb, "By the way, Mr. Luoqiu, do you have any other communication tools? I mean a wired phone. "
"Sorry, no."
Luoqiu suddenly stood up, "It looks like we can only wait for the communication to be restored naturally, or wait until dawn. If the communication still can't be restored, we can go out and ask the police for help. Of course, it would be best if this missing gentleman didn't meet with any accident and was able to find this place by himself. "
"We have so many people, can we go out and help to look for …" Len suddenly raised his hand and said enthusiastically. But when he saw Branham's eyes, he lowered his voice, "I'm just suggesting."
For the girl's mother, perhaps any kind of help was what she desperately needed. At this moment, she was even looking at the crowd with a pleading gaze.
At this time, Gloria subconsciously looked at the night outside the living room and reached out to touch her arm. She hesitated and said, "Are there really no more places to live nearby?"
The girl's mother's eyes immediately dimmed … Thinking about it, it was possible that they would encounter danger, let alone in a situation where someone was missing.
She knew she couldn't force anything.
"Mrs. Maggie, do you still remember where your husband went missing?" Suddenly, a voice came from the dining table behind them.
Alex.
"I remember!"
Alex wiped his lips with the napkin on the table, then stood up and smiled, "If you don't mind, I can accompany you back to the original place to look for him."
"I, I can also help." Len took a deep breath at this time, slowly raising his hand and saying.
As if he had plucked up his courage.
Vaguely, Allie's eyes seemed to brighten up. Hearing Len's words, Branham frowned and suddenly stood up, "Well, I'll go with you. It's better to have one more person than one less. But Gloria and Allie will stay here for the time being, right? "
It seemed to be decided in this way.
The girl's mother, namely Mrs. Maggie, Alex, Branham and Len, went back to the place where her husband went missing again.
Although Mrs. Maggie was a little worried, she still chose to leave her daughter in the cottage … Perhaps it was because she had met this young man once on the train, or she felt that for the little girl, now she needed a safe place more.
When Mrs. Maggie made this decision, it seemed that she had made a great decision.
"Well, I hope that the goddess of luck can bring us good luck on this trip."
In front of the door, Alex smiled and said goodbye, then finally got into the car that Mrs. Maggie drove back.
The little girl was caught by Allie's palm. She looked at her mother's car reluctantly until it was out of sight, then she suddenly threw herself into her elder sister's arms.
After Allie comforted her, she took the little girl into the house. Gloria was now walking back and forth in the living room, seeming to be worried.
Allie didn't know what to say for a while.
She subconsciously looked at the young owner of the cottage, finding that he was now reading an old book, which was taken down from the bookshelf on the wall of the living room.
It seemed that he was not worried at all … This person was really calm. Allie thought quietly.
After an unknown period of time, the servant girl walked into the living room with a tea tray in her hands. She squatted down and took out the cup inside. She said softly, "Drink some flower tea. This is Luoshen flower tea. It can calm your mood and help you recover your spirit."
You Ye put the cups in front of them one by one.
Allie said thank you.
Gloria had never stopped pacing back and forth since the beginning. At this time, even if she took the cup, she just held it in her hand, drinking while walking back and forth. It seemed that she was thinking about something and was absorbed in it.
"Tell me, what's your name?"
Miss Maid came to the little girl at last.
"Lena!"
"Lena, good girl." Miss Maid touched the little girl's hair, "Are you afraid?"
Lena nodded, suddenly asking, "Elder sister, will my father be okay?"
"I don't know." You Ye said softly, "But, if he is okay, he will naturally be okay. If something happens, no matter how worried you are, something will still happen. Do you like to have something happen? Or not? "
The little girl was stunned, tilting her head … She couldn't understand the words of this beautiful elder sister. The little girl Lena lowered her head and drank the tea, then looked around curiously.
"This elder sister is so strange."
Lena suddenly whispered in You Ye's ear, she was pointing at Gloria.
"Is there anything strange?" You Ye asked curiously.
Lena suddenly said, "One, two, three. One, two, three. Did you see, this elder sister turned around after three steps, then turned around again after three steps. She has been like this since just now. "
"Really." Miss Maid smiled slightly.
She stood up, finally touching Lena's head, then walked to Luoqiu and sat down.
She just sat there quietly, without any sound and other unnecessary movements.
Allie looked at her curiously … She felt like she was looking at a puppet.
…
Tick-tock, tick-tock, that was the sound of the pendulum clock in the living room.
As if it was beating with the heartbeat, every movement could be transmitted to people's hearts.
Gloria sat down. Perhaps she was tired from walking. She looked down at her phone and then at Ellie. She seemed to be trying to find a topic to talk about. She opened her mouth several times, but in the end, she didn't say a word.
The little girl Lena looked back and forth in the living room … It was already time for her to go to bed. Now it seemed that after experiencing something, her normal schedule was disrupted.
Lena, who was wearing a small floral skirt, white stockings and red leather shoes, walked down from the sofa gently.
She saw a large leather suitcase placed in the corner of the living room and the dining room.
Lena walked towards the suitcase subconsciously.
It was getting closer and closer.
She stretched out her hand, wanting to touch the suitcase.
It was getting closer.
Pa!
Suddenly, Lena heard such a sound. She was startled and even turned around.
She only heard that the elder brother who was sitting and reading suddenly closed the book in his hand, that was why the sound was made. The elder brother whispered to her, "Touching other people's things is not what a good child should do."
Lena stuck out her tongue, and quickly put her hands behind her back.
Luoqiu smiled, he grabbed a candy from the snack box on the tea table, "Do you want to eat it?"
Lena nodded, walking quickly towards Boss Luo.
