Farming Space Makes Me Rich (4)

Chapter 643: Missing Child

"I don't care. My child hasn't been found. You have to give me an explanation!" A fat middle-aged woman said fiercely, "If you can't find him, you have to compensate me. You have to pay at least a million..."

Mother Xiao frowned when she heard the middle-aged woman.

Shouldn't she be more concerned about her child? Why would she be asking for compensation and starting with a million? Was money more important than her child? What kind of parent was this?

Xiao Lingyu comforted her, "Madam, don't worry. If he really got lost on our farm, I will definitely give you an explanation. Now, the most important thing is to find him first."

The middle-aged woman said disdainfully, "Hmph, what if we can't find him?" Although she was loud, she didn't look worried at all. "What if we find my son's body?"

Xiao Lingyu frowned and said with some doubt, "Madam, let's not scare ourselves. We have just started looking."

When Xiao Lingyu said this, her expression was slightly stern.

She was slightly puzzled. Which parent would hope that their child's body would be found?

This was obviously not right.

In any case, it was more important to find the missing child first.

The woman's eyes flashed with guilt for a moment. She subconsciously wanted to refute, but the man next to her quickly pulled her back. He then acted like an anxious father. He went forward and explained, "I'm sorry. My wife is too worried about our missing son, so she doesn't know what she's saying. Now, let's hurry up and find him."

Father Xiao said, "Yu 'Er, the man's right!"

A ten-year-old was missing so late at night. It was really worrying.

Xiao Lingyu nodded and asked, "Sir, where did you all go today?"

Before the man could say anything, the middle-aged woman said impatiently, "We came here to travel. Where else could we go? Why are you asking theseunnecessary questions?"

As soon as she said this, many people around frowned again. This woman was acting really strange. Logically speaking, shouldn't she be more anxious and cooperate with the owner to find her child?

Why was she... purposely stalling for time?

Xiao Lingyu's eyes flashed as she swept her gaze across the family. Other than this woman and man, there was also a nine-year-old boy and a seven-year-old girl by her side.

The two children didn't reveal any worry about the missing child. They didn't care about their missing elder brother at all. There was even a sense of disdain and contempt.

This... there was clearly something wrong with this family.

Xiao Lingyu said very seriously, "Madam, finding the child is more important. We have surveillance cameras installed at all the places. Once we know your family's traveling schedule, then we'll be able to use the cameras to trace your missing son. So, I hope that you'd cooperate with us." Xiao Lingyu stressed the last sentence.

At this time, Xiao Lingyun also interrupted and asked, "When did you return to the Inn?"

The middle-aged woman was about to speak when the man said again, "We returned to the inn at nine!"

"So, your son was still with you before nine?" Xiao Lingyun asked again.

"No!" The woman said without thinking before the man could speak.

"No?" Xiao Lingyun asked with slight doubt, "You returned to the inn at nine o'clock, and your son was already not with you. It's already half-past ten, and now you're only thinking about looking for him?"
