It was raining heavily outside. The two children huddled together. Although raindrops occasionally dripped down along the branches, the situation was much better than before.
Their bodies gradually warmed up, and their faces regained color.
Wei Jing patted Xu Jiahui's back comfortingly and said, "Lean on me and sleep for a while. I'll wake you up when the rain stops."
"Okay," Xu Jiahui responded in a low voice.
He was only six years old. He was still a child. Today's escape had consumed all of his energy. He was so tired that his legs were weak. He was holding on with all his strength. Now that Wei Jing spoke, his eyelids began to tremble.
Wei Jing moved and glued the two of them even tighter. They could feel each other's body temperature through a thin layer of underwear.
Wei Jing was also very tired. In terms of physical fitness, he might not be as good as Xu Jiahui, who had been naughty since childhood. He had the heart of an adult, but he didn't have the corresponding ability. After an unknown period of time, Wei Jing felt dizzy and his whole body was hot.
He had a fever.
In such a bad situation.
Xu Jiahui, who was beside him, felt the warmth and leaned more and more against Wei Jing.
Wei Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. With the current temperature and the continuous rain, if no one came to save them tomorrow, the two of them would have to return to the kidnappers' territory. Otherwise, they would definitely freeze to death in this place because of the lack of heat.
Now that he had a fever, his wet clothes could be used as a physical cooling. The heat was enough.
But … it still couldn't last long!
He didn't give up and took out his phone. The small black phone was only half the size of a palm. It stubbornly held a black screen. Obviously, after being washed by the rain, it had been damaged.
It was really … when it rains, it pours. When the boat is late, it encounters the wind.
Bad things happened one after another. In this cold night, Wei Jing opened his eyes wide. It was as if he saw a vague and terrifying figure. It was tall, strong, and had several holes in its head. It was glaring at him with resentful eyes.
The child's body, which was already curled into a ball, shrunk even tighter. He muttered in his heart, "I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't do anything wrong … If I didn't kill him, the two of them would be the ones to die. These people are bad people, they deserve to die …"
The more he rejected it, the clearer the face that he couldn't see clearly became.
This was the first time in his life that Wei Jing was so terrified.
Even death happened in an instant. It could even be said that before he could react, he had already been reborn back to the time when he was seven years old. Therefore, when he died in a car accident, it was like an unclear dream to him. It didn't affect him much.
But this time … it had been at least twelve to twelve hours since he was caught. Wei Jing's nerves were constantly on edge. He had used up all his energy to escape, and he had jumped down from the tree without hesitation.
He wasn't a brave person. In his previous life, he had accompanied his elder brother to participate in some outdoor training, but it was all for fun. There were specialized people to take care of him.
Now that he had relaxed, he was suddenly afraid.
Although they had already gone far, and although it was raining heavily now, that group of people shouldn't be able to find them, but … what if? If they were caught, they would definitely be beaten up. What would happen to their lives after that?
Would they be sold? Or would their organs be sold?
The former could at least survive, but the latter … they would be done for.
This was also why Wei Jing didn't hesitate to pull Xu Jiahui along even though he knew that escaping was very risky. He had already been reborn once. He ate, drank, and played. Although he died young, he didn't have any regrets. He just felt that he owed his elder brother.
But what about Xu Jiahui?
He was still so young, and his life had just begun to bloom. If something happened to him in front of him … he would probably never forgive himself.
Really, why was he trying to be a hero at this time? Wei Jing opened his mouth and bit the back of his hand. The pain instantly woke him up from his muddled thoughts. Hang in there, soon! Big Brother will come and save us … Wei Jing encouraged himself.
***
With a lead, the police quickly investigated. Wei Min was still young, and he was in the Wei family's old mansion. Even if it was for the sake of the Wei family's reputation, the police didn't dare to pursue the matter directly without concrete evidence. Therefore, their investigation fell on Wei Zhe.
The rest of the police frantically investigated Lü Tianyou. He claimed to be Wei Min's cousin, but there was no such person as Lü Tianyou.
What if there was no ghost? Then there really was a ghost.
The police split into two groups. Starting from the hospital, they searched frantically along the surveillance cameras. All the intersections on the highway were blocked to prevent the criminals from escaping.
In a room on the second floor of the Wei family's old mansion.
Wei Min sat on the edge of the bed with his head lowered. His fair little face was filled with uneasiness, and it was almost written on his face that he was the culprit.
Wei Zhe's face was filled with anger, and his words were filled with undisguised anxiety. "Where did you take Wei Jing? Don't try to lie. The police have already sent people to investigate your so-called cousin. The truth will come to light soon. "
"I … I don't know." Wei Min bit his lip and said fearfully.
The real culprit was his uncle, his biological uncle! Moreover, he had taken the risk to do this to save his mother. Therefore, even if he was afraid, he wouldn't say it. He couldn't say it.
"Little brat, you'd better be honest." Wei Zhe suddenly exploded and grabbed Wei Min in his hand. The veins on the teenager's forehead were bulging, and his handsome face was twisted into a hideous mess. He looked like a lone wolf who had been forced into a corner and only wanted to bite off his enemy's neck viciously to fight for his life.
It's happening again.
Wei Zhe blinked, and a deep sense of powerlessness suddenly emerged from the depths of his body. It was as if his bones and meridians had been taken away. He … had lost his family once again. He had lost his younger brother.
Pain. Every cell in his body and every strand of his hair was screaming — it's so painful! It was so painful that his rationality was on the verge of collapse. It was so painful that he wanted to kill someone.
"Big … Big Brother …" Wei Min was in a daze as he watched the teenager who had used violence against him dispiritedly let go of his hand. Under the glaring light, the raging flames of anger in his eyes were wrapped in a circle of confusion.
Was he … crying?
Wei Min felt that it was ridiculous. That cold, intelligent, cruel, and superior big brother of his was actually crying!
"You're not going to tell me, are you?" Wei Zhe suddenly laughed, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in his laughter. The teenager's strength was much greater than that of a child's. Almost instantly, he had pinned Wei Min under his body. With a bang, the bedside lamp was smashed into pieces. The sharp shards of the lamp were aimed at the child's white and tender neck under his frightened gaze.
"Tell me, if I kill you, will Father help you or help me?" Wei Zhe's eyes narrowed. "Now, are you going to tell me or not?"
"I … I … I don't know." Wei Min was so scared that his whole body was trembling, and there were pitiful tears in his eyes.
"Pfft." Wei Zhe got up and threw away the shards in his hand. "Someone who is worth you protecting at the cost of your life? Do you still need to guess? The Lu family, tsk, tsk. You really have guts. You're going to be chopped off for extending your hand so far. "
Wei Min panicked when he heard this. "Don't blame Uncle. He did all this to help me. He did all this to save my mother."
Wei Zhe stared fixedly at the child. His gaze was filled with pity and malice. After a few seconds, he said, "How pitiful. You've been used!"
What Wei Min's mother had done in the past had challenged Wei He's authority. No matter what, Wei He would not release her for the sake of the Wei family's reputation. Then … why did the Lu family kidnap Wei Jing?
Money! No!
Although the Lu family could not compare to the Wei family in any aspect, they would not do such a crazy thing for a little money.
Wei Zhe rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
The Lu family should not have dared to provoke the Wei family. Even if his sister went to jail, they could only swallow their anger. But now, what they had done was completely challenging the Wei family's authority. If Wei He was willing to intervene in this matter, with his power, Wei Jing would have been rescued by now.
Moreover … what good would kidnapping Wei Jing do to them?
Nothing at all. Instead, they would offend them. Unless … someone ordered them to do so. This way, the whole matter could be connected.
Wei Zhe narrowed his eyes. He took out his phone and dialed a number. "Hello! Father. "
"Yes, what's the matter?" Wei He sat leisurely on the soft leather sofa. He looked a little tipsy.
Wei Zhe went straight to the point. "You were the one who ordered the Lu family to kidnap Wei Jing," he said in an affirmative tone.
"How can you say that?" Wei He, who was exposed, smiled indifferently. "I just hinted that I didn't like that child a little bit and expressed my intention to send him to someone else. But you didn't agree, which put me in a difficult position. After that, it was the Lu family who acted on their own. What does it have to do with me?"
"Where are you going to send him?" Wei Zhe frowned. He had a bad feeling about this.
"Since he doesn't want to go back to his' home ', I'll find him a family."
"Where is he now?"
"How would I know? I … I didn't do anything. I'm an innocent citizen! "
Damn it! Wei Zhe cursed in his heart. He was afraid that the last time he had personally brought Wei Jing back, he had attracted Wei He's attention. He was already extremely disgusted with this son who had made him a cuckold, and now he had a gun in his hand that didn't require any effort …
The phone rang.
"We found Lü Tianyou. He's driving towards the suburbs in the east," the police said quickly. The police said quickly, "Please don't worry, we will definitely bring your brother back safely."
"Where are you now? I want to go with you. "Wei Zhe was not at ease leaving his brother's life in the hands of others.
