Chapter 1478 Xiao Xiao’s Method

"Xiao Chu remarried?"

Mother Chen was a little surprised.

Although I knew this was a possibility at the beginning, I still couldn't help but feel surprised when the facts were really laid out before me.

"Yes."

The round-faced old lady nodded, "The daughter-in-law from the city is pretty."

"He just doesn't look like someone who's easy to get along with."

"It's okay for Coco's younger brother. After all, he's a boy and there are many people around him at home."

"But Coco..."

The round-faced old lady shook her head and said, "She's always the only one I see."

"She didn't go home at dinner time and no one came out to call her."

"It's like this even without a stepmother, now with a stepmother..."

The round-faced old lady sighed, "Poor child."

"A child without a mother is a weed."

"Coco's mom left too early."

"Not yet Grandma Coco."

Mother Chen frowned in displeasure, "Old Chu didn't say anything, but she insisted that Coco's mother give birth to another son."

"How old is Coco's mom?"

"In the end, I had a son, but I lost my wife."

"Is she satisfied?"

"What's she dissatisfied with?"

The round-faced old lady snorted, "Didn't he find another beautiful city daughter-in-law?"

"Hey~"

Mother Chen shook her head.

……

Seeing the two old ladies chatting like this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but interrupt with a wry smile, "...Mom."

He originally wanted to ask the round-faced old lady a question directly, but found that he didn't know how to address her at all. So after a pause, he looked at Chen's mother.

"oh oh."

Mother Chen patted her forehead gently and said, "Look at me, I almost forgot the important matter."

"Just chatting with you."

She looked at the round-faced old lady and a bitter smile appeared on her face.

"Well, let's talk about serious matters first."

Mother Chen coughed lightly and said, "Juan, besides knowing that Keke's family moved to the city, do you know anything else?"

"Is there any information I can find about Coco?"

"Does anyone know which city?"

"Did Coco's family move to a nearby county town, or to a big city?"

"You really didn't ask their family for a contact number at that time?"

Mother Chen asked a lot of questions.

The round-faced old lady felt a little dizzy. How could she remember so many questions?

She listened to the last question.

"What contact number do you want?"

The round-faced old lady curled her lips and asked, "Why do I need their phone numbers?"

"I don't get along with that old woman."

"you"

Mother Chen shook her head.

She turned to look at Xiao Xiao, her face somewhat helpless and apologetic, "Mr. Xiao, this is the situation."

"I guess there's nothing we can do to help you."

Thinking of the story about the tomb ghost and the girl that classmate Xiao told him yesterday, the middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.

There was a hint of regret in his eyes.

Having heard such a story, he naturally hoped that the story would have a perfect ending.

The so-called perfect ending is that the tomb ghost and the girl meet again.

The once severed relationship between monsters and humans is reconnected, and their friendship can continue forever.

This is a fitting ending to this fairy-tale-like story, isn't it?

Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly, "I am sorry to bother you."

"do not worry about it."

"I'll figure it out myself."

"What can you think of?"

After she said this, Chen's mother realized that this sentence seemed to be misunderstood.

"No, I mean what solution can you come up with?" Well, this sentence didn't sound any better than the previous one.

Chen's mother explained again, "No"

"Grandma, I know what you mean."

Xiao Xiao smiled and spoke out to stop the old lady from continuing to be entangled.

"I just thought that since we know the name and age, then at least we should be able to find it out in the public security system."

"Public security system?"

The two old ladies repeated in a daze.

In other words, "Call the police?"

Both old men were a little surprised.

Mainly in the eyes of the elderly, if it has come to the point of calling the police, then it is a very serious matter.

But is finding Coco such a serious matter?

Coco was not lost or missing.

She just moved.

Will the police accept a case involving a girl who they lost contact with due to moving?

I always think that I should
The middle-aged man was also a little surprised.

Student Xiao wants to find the police?
Then how did he explain to the police why he was looking for a girl?
The police won’t help you find someone without asking any questions just because you tell them they want to.

Is it
Is this the same story you told the old lady before?

That shouldn't work, right?
That set of rhetoric is only good enough to fool the elderly.
If the police find out that you are lying, the consequences will be bad.

"I have a friend whose father is a police officer."

Xiao Xiao gave a simple explanation.

The others all showed a look of realization.

"Oh, if we check the public security system, we should be able to find it right away."

The middle-aged man smiled, looking relaxed.

Since you can't find anyone, asking the police for help is naturally the quickest way.

Before, he was worried that there might be monsters involved in this matter and it was difficult for him to explain it to the police.

Now that Xiao said he knew someone in the public security department, his previous vague explanation should be acceptable.

Great.

This problem is solved.

While feeling happy, the middle-aged man couldn't help but think that if he had known that classmate Xiao had this relationship, he would not have suggested coming to the house to ask the old lady in the first place.

It wasted everyone's time in vain.

……

"Sorry to bother you, Uncle Chen, two old men."

Xiao Xiao's thanks surprised the middle-aged man.

He almost thought that he had just spoken out his true feelings again.

He had no intention of complaining.

No matter what, he would have suggested going back to the old lady's place given the situation yesterday.

He opened his mouth to say something.

The old lady at the side had already spoken, "What's the trouble?"

"It's of no help at all."

Mother Chen shook her head.

"Why do I feel like you're hinting at something?"

The round-faced old lady glanced at Chen's mother.

"Is not it?"

Mother Chen looked back with a smile.

"..."

The round-faced old lady muttered in a low voice, "How could I have known that after so many years, someone would still come to inquire about Coco's child?"

"correct."

The round-faced old man suddenly remembered something and said, "Can I tell you now?"

"What are you doing with that kid Coco?"

"Oh……"

Mother Chen repeated to the round-faced old lady the reasons that classmate Xiao had told her yesterday.

"Coco's friend..."

The round-faced old lady smiled slowly, "That child has a friend who cares about her so much..."

"Very good, very good."

The child at home...even an outsider could see it...has been unhappy since Coco's mother left.
