Mole

When the little girl saw the money, she was slightly tempted. She could buy two pieces of fruit candy for 0.02 yuan! After she thought about it, she agreed.

The little girl turned left and right. Two minutes later, she brought Xiao Sheng to the place where Yu Bing had been ambushed. “Brother, I picked it up here.”

Xiao Sheng looked at the three forks in front of him. He didn’t know which path Yu Bing had taken at that time, so he looked around to see if there were any strange marks or other things that Yu Bing had dropped.

After a fruitless search, he bent down and asked the little girl, “When did you pick it up?”

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a while. “It’s been a while since I picked it up. I picked it up on the way to Xiao Meizi’s house.”

Xiao Sheng described Yu Bing’s appearance again, but the little girl shook her head again to indicate that she had never seen her before.

Xiao Sheng didn’t give up. He thought for a moment and continued to ask, “Did you see anyone along the way?”

The little girl lowered her eyes and started to recall seriously. She even raised her finger and counted with one finger. “After I left the house, I saw Uncle Tang, Auntie Zhang, and that annoying person in my class. Then, I picked up the map and met Grandpa Zhao. Then, I went to Xiao Meizi’s house. When I came out, I saw you on my way home.”

Xiao Sheng grabbed the little girl’s shoulder and asked anxiously, “You didn’t see any strangers?”

The little girl paused when she heard this. Xiao Sheng stared at her nervously. This was the only clue he could find now. If this trail went cold, he wouldn’t know how else to find her!

The little girl thought of someone she had overlooked. “The annoying person was talking to an unfamiliar man. I’ve never seen that man around here.”

Xiao Sheng’s pupils dilated. It was very likely that Yu Bing had encountered something here and disappeared as a result. One more person meant one more clue. “What did he look like?!”

The little girl replied, “I didn’t see his face. I only saw him carrying a snakeskin bag.”

Snakeskin bag! Xiao Sheng felt even more uneasy. “Is the annoying person you’re talking about your classmate? Bring me to him.”

A trace of unwillingness appeared on the little girl’s face. “I don’t want to look for him. He keeps pulling my hair in class!”

Xiao Sheng was stunned for a moment. Then, he took out another 0.05 yuan and enticed, “I heard that the supply company has beautiful hair clips. You can buy them with this money.”

This was too tempting for the little girl! The last time she went to the supply company with her mother, she saw a hair clip that cost this much, but her mother didn’t buy it for her. The little girl felt that it was worth it to get a pretty hair clip in exchange for a tug at the end of her hair. “Alright! I’ll bring you there.”

The two of them set off for the little girl’s classmate’s house. Then, the little girl took the initiative to call her classmate out of the house.

Zhang Zhen went downstairs in his patched clothes. When he saw Xiao Sheng, he was stunned for a moment. He thought that the little girl had found her brother to take revenge on him, so he wanted to run home.

Xiao Sheng reacted quickly and grabbed Zhang Zhen’s arm. “I have something to ask you!”

After Zhang Zhen was caught, he could only turn around and point at the little girl in fear. “Didn’t she find you to beat me up?”

Xiao Sheng, who felt like he got dragged into the feud between two primary school students, felt very helpless. “I’m here to ask you something. Have you seen a man holding a snakeskin bag in this alley?”

When Zhang Zhen heard that he wasn’t here to beat him up, he heaved a sigh of relief. “Are you asking about Brother Xiao Sheng? I’ve seen him before!”

Xiao Sheng was stunned. “The man you saw said his name is Xiao Sheng?”

Zhang Zhen nodded affirmatively, but when he saw the name on the certificate in Xiao Sheng’s hand, he was stunned. “Both of you guys are called Xiao Sheng?”

At this moment, Xiao Sheng was 100% certain that someone was plotting against them, so he asked Zhang Zhen to tell him everything about the fake Xiao Sheng.

Zhang Zhen told Xiao Sheng everything that had happened today. “I was playing at my house this afternoon when he suddenly appeared in front of me and said that his name was Xiao Sheng. He gave me 0.1 yuan as an errand fee and asked me to help him find a girl called Yu Bing. He said that he wanted her to go to the police station on Sang’an Road. He even asked me to tell her how to get there.”

Xiao Sheng felt his throat tighten. “What did he look like?”

Zhang Zhen replied, “He’s very ordinary-looking, but he has a mole at the corner of his mouth and two hairs on it!”
