Chapter 1: The First Dawn of Spring
The spring breeze is light, with a little chill, and in the sky above Daren Village, Guanyang County, a vast white pear blossom is like clouds and snow. On the hillside outside the village, an observation deck looms, and the retro design resembles a palace in the middle of the moon under the shade of pear blossoms.
It's so beautiful here, like a fairyland. A crisp female voice broke the silence of the air, speaking to a girl in a pink dress, her name is Lin Wan'er, and she is a photography enthusiast.
It's really beautiful, but there are so many people that it's not easy to find a good angle. A young man with a professional camera next to him said with a wry smile, his name is Chen Feng, and he is Wan'er's friend and director of photography.
The two walked along the sign to the observation deck at the top of the mountain, and the upstream was full of people and laughter. From time to time, children frolic under the pear blossom trees, and parents are busy taking pictures.
Hey, what's going on over there? It seems that someone is arguing. Wan'er had sharp eyes and found a group of people not far away.
Chen Feng curiously squeezed in, only to see a middle-aged woman pointing at a young man's nose and scolding: "You have no conscience, you want to run away when you hit my child?" ”
The young man blushed and argued, "I obviously didn't hit him, he ran over on his own." ”
Do you dare to quibble? Everyone evaluates the theory, should this kind of person be beaten? The middle-aged woman said that she was about to do it.
The crowd of onlookers began to whisper, with some accusing the young man of not evading his responsibilities and others feeling that the middle-aged woman was making trouble. The atmosphere became tense for a while.
Chen Feng looked around, but did not find the surveillance camera, and secretly said something bad in his heart. He hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Auntie, don't get excited, let's see if the child is injured." ”
The middle-aged woman calmed down a little when she heard this, but she still stared at the young man unrelentingly. The young man looked helpless and angry.
At this moment, a crisp child's voice sounded: "Mom, I'm fine, I accidentally fell down myself." The crowd followed the crowd and saw a boy of five or six years old coming out of the crowd. He patted the dirt off his body and cast an apologetic look at the young man.
The middle-aged woman was stunned when she saw this, and then smiled awkwardly: "It turned out to be a misunderstanding, I'm sorry, young man." ”
The young man breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head to indicate that it was okay. The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed.
Chen Feng and Wan'er looked at each other and smiled, and continued to walk towards the observation deck. After this little episode, the two were even more impressed by this place.
Finally, we came to the top of the observation deck, which has a wide view and can overlook the entire pear garden. White pear blossoms spread all over the hillside, like a thick layer of snow. The breeze blows, and the petals fall like snow.
So beautiful! I must shoot the most beautiful **! Wan'er excitedly picked up the camera and started shooting.
Chen Feng stood quietly on the sidelines and enjoyed this rare beauty. A sudden impulse surged in his heart to protect this pure land and these kind people. But then he shook his head with a wry smile and put this unrealistic idea behind him.
What he didn't know, however, was that under a pear tree not far from them, a man in black was watching their every move coldly......
Chapter 2: The Secret of the Man in Black
On the observation deck, visitors picked up their mobile phones or cameras to record this rare beauty. Chen Feng and Wan'er are also immersed in this picturesque scenery, pressing the shutter from time to time to capture every moving moment.
However, in this harmonious and tranquil atmosphere, a sense of disharmony quietly spreads. Chen Feng inadvertently caught a glimpse of a figure dressed in black, sneakily peeking at the crowd under the pear tree. His heart sank, and he subconsciously pulled Wan'er's sleeve.
What's wrong? Wan'er was engrossed in photographing Pear Blossom, and was taken aback by Chen Feng's sudden move.
Look at the man. Chen Feng said in a low voice, pointing to the man in black not far away, "He has been staring at us, I feel that something is wrong." ”
Wan'er looked in the direction of Chen Feng's finger, and sure enough, she saw the man in black. He was dressed in black and wore a pair of sunglasses on his face, which made him look very mysterious.
Could he be a thief or a robber? Wan'er said a little nervously, "Should we call the police?" ”
Don't panic yet, let's see the situation. Chen Feng said in a deep voice. He kept an eye on the man in black, trying to find some clues in his demeanor.
However, the man in black didn't seem to make any further moves, he just stood there quietly, looking around from time to time. Chen Feng and Wan'er had no choice but to stand still and continue to observe his movements.
That's when the unexpected happened. A young mother took her child to take a picture under the pear tree, and the child suddenly broke free of his mother's hand and ran towards the man in black. The man in black obviously didn't expect this to happen, he was stunned for a moment, and then quickly turned and ran away.
Not good!There must be something wrong with him!Seeing this, Chen Feng shouted loudly, "Catch him!."”
However, the man in black was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the dense pear blossom bushes. Chen Feng and Wan'er hurriedly chased after them, but it was too late.
What to do?He ran away!Wan'er panted and said, "Shall we call the police?"”
Wait, let's go back and see if the kid is okay. Chen Feng said in a deep voice. He had an ominous premonition in his heart, this man in black was definitely not simple.
The two hurried back to the observation deck, only to see the young mother anxiously looking for her child. Seeing Chen Feng and Wan'er coming back, she hurriedly greeted her: "Have you seen my child?"He just disappeared suddenly!”
What?!The child is gone?Chen Feng and Wan'er exclaimed at the same time, "Could it be the man in black?"”
They didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly called the police**. Soon arrived at the scene and launched a full-scale search operation. However, it was as if the man in black had evaporated from the world and never appeared again.
The news of the child's disappearance quickly spread among tourists, and the originally harmonious and peaceful pear garden was suddenly shrouded in a haze. There was a lot of talk, speculating about the identity and purpose of the man in black. Some people even put forward a bold conjecture: Could this man in black be the legendary "Pear Blossom Thief"?
"Pear Blossom Thief" is a mysterious legend that has been circulating in Guanyang County in recent years. It is said that he specializes in haunting the pear blossom season, stealing tourists' belongings and even abducting children. However, multiple investigations have failed to find conclusive evidence to prove the authenticity of this legend.
Now, the disappearance of the child has undoubtedly added some credibility to this legend. The tourists were panicked and left the pear garden early. The observation deck, which was once bustling with activity, has also become deserted.
Chen Feng and Wan'er did not leave, they decided to stay and assist ** in investigating the clues of this matter. They know that only by revealing the true identity and purpose of the man in black can they find the missing child and return the pear garden to a clean place.
Night falls, and the stars shine. Chen Feng and Wan'er stood on the empty observation deck, overlooking the silent pear garden below. Their hearts are full of determination and determination: no matter who the man in black is or where he is hiding, they will find him!
Chapter 3: Tracking the Man in Black
As soon as the sky was bright, Chen Feng and Wan'er got up early. After a brief breakfast, they hurried to the police station. **A task force has been set up to investigate the disappearance of the child.
Do you guys have any clues?The leader of the task force, an experienced veteran criminal policeman, asked.
Chen Feng recounted in detail the situation of the man in black he observed yesterday, including his dress, mannerisms, and the direction of his escape. After hearing this, the old criminal police nodded and said that these clues would be included in the scope of the investigation.
Subsequently, ** retrieved the surveillance footage around the pear garden and tried to find the traces of the man in black. However, due to the remote location of Pear Garden, the monitoring facilities are not perfect, so not much useful information was taken.
However, in one of the blurry surveillance screens, Chen Feng still recognized the figure of the man in black. He didn't look tall, but he was agile and quickly disappeared from the frame.
There must be something wrong with this person!Chen Feng pointed to the man in black in the picture and said, "We must find him!."”
The old detective agreed, and decided to send police forces to conduct a carpet search around the pear garden. Chen Feng and Wan'er also volunteered to join the search team.
They followed the route where the man in black might have escaped, not missing a single suspicious corner. However, it was as if the man in black had evaporated from the world and never appeared again.
Just when everyone was feeling hopeless, an unexpected discovery turned the case around. In a remote ravine, a black dress and some messy footprints were found. After comparison, these footprints are completely consistent with those left by the man in black.
It seems that he changed his clothes here. The old detective analyzed, "He may be trying to confuse us in this way." ”
Chen Feng and Wan'er also carefully observed their surroundings, trying to find more clues. Suddenly, Wan'er found an unusual place: "Look here!."She said, pointing to a pile of dirt on the ground.
Chen Feng and the old criminal policeman leaned over to take a look, only to see something white faintly emerging from the soil. They carefully dug it out and found that it turned out to be a broken children's watch.
Here's that kid's watch! Chen Feng recognized it at a glance, "It seems that he was indeed brought here by the man in black." ”
The old detective also showed a solemn look: "We must find him as soon as possible!" His life could be in danger! ”
The search escalated again, with more police and technical means being used to find the man in black and the missing children. Chen Feng and Wan'er were not idle, they used their expertise to post a missing person notice on social **, and called on the majority of netizens to provide clues.
For a time, the entire Guanyang County was shrouded in a tense atmosphere. People are paying attention to the disappearance of the child and praying for the child's safe return.
However, the man in black seemed to sense the action of **, and he became more cunning and cautious. He did not remain in the ravine, but moved to another, more secluded place.
*Although there are some clues, finding the man in black and the child is still like looking for a needle in a haystack. The case is at an impasse.
Chapter 4: Desperate Situation
Time passes by the minute, and with each passing second, the hope of survival of the missing child becomes even slimmer. Chen Feng and Wan'er hadn't had a good rest for several days and nights, their eyes were bloodshot, but the belief in their hearts was getting stronger and stronger.
We can't give up! Chen Feng clenched his fists and said, "That kid is still waiting for us to save him!" ”
At this moment, the technical department of ** came with good news: they roughly identified the area where he might be hiding by analyzing the footprints left by the man in black and the composition of the dirt.
It is an abandoned mine cave located in the back hill of Pear Garden. The old detective pointed to a dot on the map and said, "The man in black is probably hiding there." ”
Chen Feng and Wan'er were refreshed when they heard this, and they immediately picked up their equipment and followed ** to the location of the mine. The entrance to the mine is hidden, surrounded by weeds and thorns, and it is clear that no one has been here for a long time.
* A plan of action was quickly drawn up, with some people setting up an ambush near the entrance to the cave and others entering the mine to search. Chen Feng and Wan'er also joined the search team, and they cautiously walked into the mine with flashlights.
The inside of the mine was dark and damp, and there was a foul smell in the air. The walls of the cave are covered with water droplets, and the ground is muddy underfoot. They had to slow down and carefully observe every corner around them.
Suddenly, a faint cry reached their ears. Chen Feng and Wan'er glanced at each other, and a strong hope surged in their hearts. They followed the direction of the cry and found that the sound was coming from a narrow gap.
Kids!Is that you?Chen Feng shouted loudly.
Save ......Save me ......The child's faint cry for help was heard through the cracks.
Chen Feng and Wan'er were excited, and they immediately stepped forward to check the situation. I saw a little boy stuck in the gap, it was the missing child!His face was pale and visibly weak.
Don't be afraid!We're here to save you!Chen Feng comforted. He and Wan'er carefully freed the child from the gap and quickly took him to the hospital.
After a doctor's examination and **, the child was lucky to be out of danger. He provided ** with an important clue about the man in black: it turned out that the man in black was a member of a gang of human traffickers who specialized in abducting children near Pear Garden and selling them to other places.
* Based on the clues provided by the child, the operation was quickly launched and the entire gang was successfully wiped out. The man in black was also captured and confessed to all the crimes. It turned out that the reason why he kept staring at Chen Feng and Wan'er was because he mistakenly thought that they were plainclothes police officers who were investigating their crimes.
The case was finally resolved satisfactorily, and the missing child was returned to the arms of his parents. Pear Garden has once again restored its former tranquility and harmony, and Chen Feng and Wan'er have also been commended and praised by the society for their bravery and persistence.
