Chapter 3988 Similar Numbers

"Call the police."

The man suddenly said.

The elderly and children at home are missing.

They had no idea what was going on.

Instead of searching aimlessly and wasting time, it is better to seek help from professionals directly.

……

The man picked up his cell phone.

Familiar music surrounds my ears.

He was a little irritable.

"what happened?"

He pressed the cold button on the strange number.

While searching the whole house, they also heard their phone ringing.

But after taking a quick look and realizing it was an unfamiliar number, the couple stopped caring.

They thought it was a spam call.

How can they have the time to deal with calls from unknown sources nowadays?

Even if it’s a call from someone they know, they may not answer it.

……

Just when the man was about to call the police, his cell phone rang again.

The man instantly became angry.

He doesn't have time now-
Ok?
The man's finger, which was about to hang up the phone, paused.

This number?

……

After a moment of confusion, the man didn't think much about it and quickly hung up the phone.

He just typed the number 1...

His cell phone rang again.

Looking at the incoming call page in front of me...

The man took a deep breath.

……

The woman also frowned.

But she didn't say anything.

She picked up her cell phone.

"I-"

Looking at the phone which also turned into the incoming call page, the woman fell silent.

……

The woman's silence made the man subconsciously glance over.

The next second -
"Hey?"

The man placed his cell phone next to the woman's.

"Number……"

He looked at the number displayed on his phone, then at the number displayed on the woman's phone.

"like."

……

“Same scam call?”

The woman simply stretched out her hand and made a stroke.

Her cell phone stopped ringing.

She was about to call the police -
Hearing the familiar ringtone ringing in her ears again, the woman suddenly felt that the music was not pleasant at all.

Very harsh.

For a moment, the woman was so angry that she wanted to smash her phone.

……

"wait-"

The man had just finished speaking when the woman hung up the phone again.

man:……

……

"what happened?"

The woman turned her head.

Soon, the woman's attention was drawn back to the sound of the phone ringing again.

……

The man shook his head slightly.

He hesitated for a second, then reached out and called the number he had called many times.

Yes.

He noticed.

The same number kept calling him.

And this number is very similar to the phone number used to call his wife.

It seemed like they were calling from the same place.

Call him and his wife...

Is there really something going on?

There was a trace of solemnity between the man's brows.

.....
The man turned on the speakerphone.

"Hello."

The man had a lot of random thoughts.

But they were surprised to find that the caller was the person they wanted to call... the police.

……

The couple quickly understood the situation.

It was known that the two children were not missing, but had left home to find their missing grandmother.

The two children went to the police station to report the case.

The police are still searching for the old man.

……

The man looked at the woman.

The phone has been hung up.

He twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Those two kids..." He should praise those two kids for being smart...
Or should we blame those two kids for acting on their own initiative?

……

"Walk."

The woman understood the man's dilemma.

She felt the same as the man at this moment.

But everything will have to wait until we see the child.

There is no time for them to worry about it now.

……

Knowing that the child was fine, the couple felt relieved.

But when they learned that the old man was missing, their worries, which had just been put to rest, began to rise again.

The couple knows best what the elderly person’s situation is.

This late at night...

Where will the old man go?

They were anxious and worried.

Still a little angry.

They repeatedly told the old man not to go out casually.

But the old man never listened to them.

No.

This is not the old man’s fault.

They knew that the old man did not break his promise intentionally.

The old man just…forgot.

……

The couple strode over the threshold and walked into the police station.

Soon the police came towards them.

They did not see the child in the police station.

Their faces were anxious.

After learning that the two children had gone out to look for the elderly, they became worried and a little angry.

Why would such a young child cause such trouble?
Don’t let the old man not be found and the two children get lost too.

The couple felt a little relieved when they knew someone was with their child.

Also.

How could the police let two such young children go out to look for someone on their own, especially in the pitch-black night...

What if something happens to the child?
……

The couple was still worried about their two children.

The police's explanation only made them feel a little relieved.

Not the whole heart.

They are going out to look for children and the elderly.

They couldn't just sit quietly in the police station and wait for news.

……

The couple insisted on leaving.

They are adults.

Can take responsibility for their own actions.

Besides, the more people you have, the better.

Their actions were not intended to cause trouble for the police.

……

The police agreed to their request.

Even a few police comrades joined them in the operation.

After knowing that there is a place they want to find.

The couple felt a little guilty about this.

There was some emotion in what I said just now.

To convince the police to let them move freely.

In fact, they didn't have a clear goal as to where to look for the children and the elderly.

What they know is no different than what children know.

It's just a small square.

Mainly because the old man has been going to this place all the time in recent years.

I can sit here all day.

They had advised the old man.

I also looked through some of the old man's old photos and records.

Want to find out who the old man is waiting for?
pity.

They spent a lot of time and energy, but still couldn't find the answer to this question.

……

They couldn't get the old man to give up his futile wait.

They gradually changed from being confused and annoyed at the beginning to accepting it.

They gradually felt that... this was... pretty good?
Because of this obsession, the old man often does not behave like a patient.

They even had wild ideas….
If one day the old lady really waits for the person she wants to wait for...

Will it be...

Will the elderly’s illness get better?

……

Ok.

This is indeed just their fantasy.

But as long as this wait can prevent the old man's condition from getting worse...

They felt that was enough.

……

Without hesitation, after asking the policeman next to them, the couple walked quickly in the direction where the two children left.

……

They just thought that the chances of encountering two children would be greater this way.

Unexpectedly, just when their hearts were in turmoil, they heard a familiar voice.

It was their children calling them.
