Chapter Seventy-six: Good News and Bad News

  ♂?,,

  "She doesn't like going anywhere!" Brickhead stared at me: "She just likes to stay in school, either in the dormitory or in the classroom!"

  I nodded, with a tangled mess in my heart. I told Hu Jianmin: "Notify all our brothers, don't attend this afternoon's class, go out and find Taozi, even if we have to dig three feet of land in Beiyuan City, I must find him!"

  "Good." Hu Jianmin, Dai Zude, Lin Song and others all left in a hurry.

  "Brickhead brother, don't worry, I'll definitely find the peach for you." I said firmly, clenching my fist.

  "Get out, get out quickly!" The brick head roared: "If you can't find it, I'll kill you!"

  I picked up the clothes I had just thrown away and put them back on. The blood on my head was still flowing down, but I didn't have time to deal with it, so I hastily left the cafeteria. As soon as I walked out of the gate, Ye Zhan and Su Wan rushed over.

  "Haozi, what's going on?!" Ye Zhan looked at me and exclaimed in shock.

  "It's too late to say that much." I said: "Ye Zhan, mobilize all the people who can recognize you, help me find Taozi!"

  "I've been doing it already," Ye Zhan said: "Su Wan told me, and I was looking for it."

  "I anxiously said: 'You knew it earlier? Why didn't you tell me sooner?'"

  Ye Zhan looked at me and said, "I think Taozi is just in a bad mood, going out to clear her head, it shouldn't be a big deal. So I didn't say anything, afraid of arguing with Xia Xue again..."

  I looked at Su Wan again: "What exactly is going on?"

  Su Wan's eyes were also red, apparently she had cried many times: "Taozi has been unhappy for several days, and our dormitory people have been trying to make her happy every day. But it doesn't work, Wang Hao, only you can make her happy. This morning after self-study, she said she wanted to go out to eat. We wanted to accompany her, but she didn't allow it, and then went out alone, and hasn't come back yet. I first told Brick about this, and then told Ye Zhan, Ye Zhan led people to search for a whole morning, originally thought it was no big deal, so didn't tell you. But now that we still can't find her, we're anxious, and hurriedly came to find you."

  "Alright, I know, let's continue looking." I said as I was about to head towards the school gate, and the blood on my head started flowing again.

  "Wait a bit." Ye Zhan pulled me over: "First go deal with the wound on your head. My brothers are still outside looking for you, and I also saw Hu Jianmin and them running out earlier. Don't worry, with so many people, we'll definitely find him."

  "No way." I panted: "I have to go find her. Does Ye Zhan know? Taozi isn't the kind of girl who would cause trouble for others, she knows that if she goes missing, many people will come looking for her, she absolutely wouldn't do something like this. So if she's gone missing, there must be a reason, I have to go now, not a moment to delay!"

  "Don't think too much, maybe she's just in a bad mood and went out to clear her head, she'll be back later. Is someone as big as her afraid of getting lost? Now that so many people are looking for her, adding one more person won't make a big difference." Ye Zhan pulled my arm tightly.

  "Let me go!" I suddenly shook off Ye Zhan and ran towards the school gate. Ye Zhan caught up with me, wrapped his arms around my neck, and tried to drag me to the infirmary. I struggled, taking step by step towards the school gate. He also gritted his teeth, dragging me to the infirmary.

  The two of us are about the same in terms of strength, so neither of us can overpower the other. Su Wan said from the side: "Wang Hao, just listen to Ye Zhan's words and go deal with the wound on your head first. You've lost so much blood, it looks scary, let's take care of that before we go find a way."

  "No!" I stubbornly insisted. In my mind, I had a gentle and soft image of Taozi. I knew that Taozi wouldn't just disappear without reason; she was the kind of girl who would never trouble others if she could help it.

  "Are you crazy?!" Ye Zhan bellowed. There were quite a few people gathered around, pointing and staring. Ye Zhan shouted at two of them, "Come over here and help me out!" Those two definitely knew us, and after being yelled at by Ye Zhan, they obediently came over to drag me away.

  "Get out of here!" II glared at them: "If you want to die, just say so, and I'll take care of it right now!"

  With a roar, the two of them didn't dare to move. Ye Zhan roared again: "Haven't you seen that Haoshu has lost so much blood? If we don't send him to the infirmary now, he'll probably die here! Can the two of you afford this responsibility?"

  Those two people heard this and came up again to help Ye Zhan drag me to the infirmary, no matter how I threatened or intimidated them, it was useless.

  I was taken to the infirmary, where several people held me down. The school doctor came over to treat my wound and took one look before saying, "This is a brick hit, right? Only he could hit someone so perfectly. The wound is big and bleeding a lot, it looks terrifying, but actually, it's not that serious."

  I rushed out of the door, with Ye Zhan and Su Wan following closely behind. I was thinking about what Su Wan had said - Taozi must have gone to eat at a restaurant near school after her early morning study session. So I started searching from these restaurants, describing Taozi's appearance to each owner, while Ye Zhan and Su Wan looked around to see if there were any signs of Taozi having been there.

  I ran to four or five restaurants, and when I arrived at a baozi shop, as usual, I described the appearance of Taozi to the boss and asked if he had seen this girl in the morning. Taozi was very beautiful, and every move she made was elegant, so if the boss had seen her, he would definitely remember. The boss said, "There is such a girl who came to my place for dinner, and it seems that she didn't look very happy."

  I got excited in my heart: "And then? Did you see her talking to anyone and where did she go afterwards?"

  The boss thought for a moment and said, "At that time, I was too busy to remember. If I were younger, I would definitely keep staring at her. But I'm old now, and I don't have the mood to look at beautiful women anymore..."

  "Shut up!" I roared: "Quickly tell me where she went after finishing dinner?"

  "I don't know then." The boss found it strange that I was angry, but still pointed in a direction: "After she paid and left, I saw her walking in that direction, but only took a glance and didn't notice where she went exactly."

  I looked in that direction, and it was exactly the opposite direction of school, where is Taozi planning to go?

  I followed Ye Zhan and Su Wan out of the baozi shop, walking in the direction the boss told us to go, searching house by house to see if Taozi might be here or if the boss had seen her. We walked for several hundred meters but still found nothing, even asking all the street vendors along the way, no one had seen Taozi, most of them said "At that time, I hadn't opened my shop yet" or "At that time, I was still sleeping at home and didn't see anything".

  Indeed, during the early morning self-study session, at around 7 o'clock in the morning, only some breakfast stalls were open, and most of the shops hadn't started business yet. There were also some cleaning workers and so on, but now I don't know where to find these people anymore.

  We've been searching and searching, walking several miles, almost to the city center. On the way, we met many others who were also looking for Taozi, Hu Jianmin, Dai Zude, and others, all in groups of two or three, but none of them had any news about Taozi.

  I'm so anxious I'm about to die, my legs are almost running off, but still no sign of Taozi. Later we went to the police station again, but they told us that we can only report a missing person after 48 hours, I was so anxious that I almost got into a fight with the receptionist, it was Ye Zhan who pulled me away, otherwise I would have had to spend another night at the police station. I'm burning with anxiety, never felt this way before, now I realize how important Taozi is to me, if we can find her, I'll do anything, really anything, even if it means being bullied by Zou Yang for three more years, or getting hit by bricks again and again.

  The police didn't accept the case, so I thought of Nannan. So I went to the internet cafe with Ye Zhan and Su Wan again. Yucheng Fei and Nannan were both there, but Yuan Shao still hadn't returned. I told Yucheng Fei what happened, and he scratched his head and said: "It should be fine, right? Probably just going out to clear her mind, don't worry too much, I'll send someone out to look for her together. They're familiar with this area, if anyone saw Taozi, they should be able to ask around." Then he let Meng Liang take a few people out to search.

  I went to ask Nannan again: "Nannan sister, the police station said that it's only possible to file a missing person report after 48 hours. But I really can't wait for even one minute, can you help me find someone to help look for Taozi? Taozi must have had an accident, she's not the kind of girl who would cause trouble for others, if she's gone missing it must be because something happened. Nannan sister, I'm begging you..." What I said was almost incoherent.

  "Alright, alright." Nannan immediately jumped down from Yuchen Fei's body. "The police have their own rules, and this matter indeed cannot be filed as a case. However, I can find a few friends to help look for her. They are all old hands in the police department. As long as Taozi is still in Beiyuan City, it should be no problem."

  I almost cried, holding Nannan's hand and repeatedly saying thank you to sister Nannan. Nannan hastily left the door, and Yuchen threw a mobile phone at me, "Take it, if there is any news about Taozi, I will contact you immediately."

  I put my phone in my pocket, and didn't have time to study this new gadget anymore. I took Ye Zhan and Su Wan to make a thorough search again, like headless flies, crashing into wherever, asking whoever we met if they had seen Taozi.

  But no, it never did. The peach was gone, as if it had evaporated into thin air.

  The sun slowly sets behind the mountain, struggling in the west with only half of it exposed. The phone suddenly rang, I thought there was a result, took it out and hastily connected, and sure enough, Nannan's voice came from inside.

  "Mouse." Nannan said: "I've asked the people I trust to look for her, the bad news is that there's still no sign of Taozi, but the good news is that she definitely hasn't ended up in any karaoke bars, saunas, or clubs. And several regular human traffickers have been beaten until they're bleeding and said they've never seen a girl named Taozi before. So don't worry, Taozi hasn't fallen into bad people's hands, let's keep looking slowly..."
