Rebirth 1983: Starting from taking back the family property.

Chapter 50 Report the crime
  "Oh, oh, oh..."

Awakened by the sound of a rooster crowing, Lu Jiaxin got up and opened the curtains to look outside. It was completely dark. She didn't get up and continued to sleep with her head covered. She didn't get up until the cry of a child could be heard outside.

When the eldest aunt saw her coming out, she stepped forward and said, "It's just dawn. You don't have to get up so early. I'll ask Xiaoqiu to call you when breakfast is ready."

It was also because Lu Jiaxin would sleep until three o'clock in the morning every time she came here, so she was told to sleep a little longer. Girls in the family were not allowed to sleep so late, as they would be gossiped about.

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "It's okay, I got up around six o'clock in Sijiu City."

She goes to bed at 9:30 every day, gets up at 6:00, takes a shower and walks for half an hour to start reciting English. She felt that when she came back from Pengcheng, she had to let everyone know that her English had improved rapidly.

Seeing that her help was not needed, Lu Jiaxin went back to the house. Seeing that Xiaoqiu was not there, she locked the door and pulled up the curtains to do yoga.

I haven’t done yoga for a long time. Now I can’t do difficult movements. Even after doing low-difficulty movements for a while, my whole body hurts. After working for half an hour, I was sweating drop by drop.

"Sister-in-law, it's time to eat."

Lu Jiaxin wiped the sweat from her forehead and went out to wash her face before serving it. When she saw her eldest aunt bringing a large bowl of dumplings to her, she immediately couldn't laugh or cry: "Auntie, I can't eat so much. One-third is enough."

"It doesn't matter if you can't finish it. The leftovers are in the bowl."

The Lu family's life is better than that of ordinary people, but they are not so luxurious that they throw away the dumplings. Lu Jiaxin never eats other people's leftover food, and she doesn't want others to eat her leftover food. Seeing that the eldest aunt didn't agree, she got up and went to the kitchen to get bowls.

The eldest aunt had no choice but to take serving chopsticks and share half of the dumplings in her bowl among her five grandchildren. Seeing that there was still a lot in the bowl, Lu Jiaxin scooped up a few and gave them to Xiaoqiu.

After taking a bite, Lu Jiaxin praised: "These dumplings are fresh and fragrant, so delicious. Auntie, your craftsmanship is still so good. Please teach me when you have time."

She can also make buns and steamed buns, and they taste quite good. It's just that the mutton has a mutton smell and cannot be eaten unless it is properly processed.

The eldest aunt smiled so much that the wrinkles on her face stretched out: "The filling is the key to making these dumplings delicious. I will teach you how to adjust the filling later."

Lu Jiaxin agreed with a smile.

Just after dinner, Lu Jiajie came over with his brother and two eldest nephews, but Uncle Lu, his wife, and Sister-in-law Lu did not come.

Uncle Lu didn't waste any more nonsense and began to assign tasks to them. In pairs, they went to various communes to inquire about news. The focus was to find out whose son was admitted to college 6 years ago and stayed in the north to work. At the same time, each group got a portrait.

The second roommate, Lu Lujiacai, asked, "Jia Xin, is this really your painting?"

"Yes, there are seven or eight points."

Lu Jiacai immediately felt relieved when he heard this: "Jiaxin, don't worry, as long as she is from our Feng County, we will definitely be able to find her."

There are nineteen communes in Feng County. After removing Uncle Lu, there are still eight male members in the family. Let’s go to the four neighboring communes first. Uncle Lu himself would take Lu Jiaxin to the county police to report the crime.

After the explanation was clear, everyone set off. Zhao Dajun's mission was to protect Lu Jiaxin, so he naturally followed her. Uncle Lu is older, but he is still responsible for pulling the cart.

After leaving the village, Uncle Lu asked her to sit on the cart. Seeing that she was unwilling to persuade him, he said, "We have to walk back later. It takes more than four hours to go back and forth, and we still have to walk to the county seat. You have never walked such a long way. It will cause blood blisters."

If no clues are found today, we will have to continue tomorrow. Lu Jiaxin didn't dare to show off and got on the cart obediently. I felt very energetic after sleeping well last night. I listened to Uncle Lu talk about ancient times along the way.

Arriving at the county town more than an hour later, she looked at the dilapidated house and the narrow wooden door. She asked in disbelief: "Uncle, this is the Public Security Bureau. Are you kidding me?" Even though Uncle Lu said this was the back door, she still felt Shabby. Thinking about how poor the country is now, the houses in public institutions seem to be very dilapidated.

When Lu Jiaxin entered the public security bureau, she saw a middle-aged man wearing an old military uniform sweeping the floor. When he saw three people coming in, he stopped what he was doing and asked, "What do you want?"

Lu Jiaxin said in standard Mandarin: "We are here to report the crime."

It can be seen from the tone and demeanor that this person is definitely a leader. But the leader is better. As long as this person takes her case seriously, the trafficker will be caught soon.

"What case are you reporting?"

"A trafficking case."

"Who abducted?"

Lu Jiaxin pointed at herself, then briefly explained the process of being abducted, and then told the other party her suspicions.

After listening to her story, the middle-aged man's expression became serious. He placed the broom on the tree trunk and brought the three people into the office.

The office is very simple, with only a desk and two chairs.

After sitting down, the middle-aged man took a notebook and then took out a pen from his breast pocket: "Little girl, please explain the process in detail."

Lu Jiaxin explained the process in detail, and then took out the portrait from the canvas bag.

The middle-aged man saw the portrait and asked, "Who painted this?"

"I drew it. I started to go to the Children's Palace to learn painting when I was four years old, and I stopped temporarily when I was nervous about my studies in my second year of high school last year. The teacher said that I was very talented, but my mother said that it would be difficult to get a good job as a painter, so she asked me to become a painter. I have different hobbies and interests. Don’t worry, I look exactly like the one in the portrait.”

The way Wu Hanping looked at Lu Jiaxin was wrong. The similarity is so high, it is really easy to find people from Feng County.

Lu Jiaxin also expressed her thoughts, and she said it in great detail: "Leader, I hope you can catch the human trafficker as soon as possible."

Wu Hanping looked at her strangely. The child was very clear when he analyzed the trafficker: "You are so smart, how could you be deceived by the trafficker?"

Lu Jiaxin said: "At that time, I didn't know there were so many bad people out there. During this time, I saw the dangers and ugliness of human nature."

Wu Hanping feels that protecting children too well is not love but harm. Lu Jiaxin is a living example. This child was lucky enough to escape, otherwise her life would be ruined: "Don't worry, as long as this person is from Feng County, we will definitely catch her and bring her to justice."

At this moment, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Someone came in with a document, handed it to him, and said, "Leader, this is a document just issued by the district. Take a look."

Lu Jiaxin thought that this uncle held a position like captain, but she never expected that he was actually a cadre of the Public Security Bureau. Thinking that he was sweeping the yard just now, Lu Jiaxin instantly recognized the words of later generations. Today's cadres really have no airs at all and regard themselves as public servants of the people.
