Chapter 866 Xiao Li Is Missing
Xiao Li feels very bad these days. He is a sensitive child. Although sometimes he is dull, most of the time, he is very smart.
Seeing that Brother Xiaojin was surrounded by a large group of children again, he held his chin, lay on the desk, and pouted.
Suddenly, a cold feeling shot directly from behind. The little guy was shuddered and turned around to look behind him.
But when he looked around, he only saw Rong Qing sitting behind him.
Rong Qing was shocked, then hugged her snack box timidly, and stared at Liu Xiaoli warily.
Xiao Li was sure that the cold gaze just now could not have come from Rong Qing, but Rong Qing's appearance of guarding against thieves made him very unhappy.
He stood up and walked straight towards Rong Qing.
Rong Qing hurriedly grabbed his food box and ran towards Rong Jindong with his tail between his legs.
Rong Qing staggered while running. Because he moved too quickly, when he rushed over, he hit Rong Jindong's arm.
Rong Jindong, who was teaching children how to write lyrics, slipped his hand, and the black brush left an ugly line on the rice paper.
"Rong Qing, what are you doing!" A child was unhappy, stood up and pushed Rong Qing.
Rong Qing was already unstable, so he stumbled backwards with this push and almost fell down.
Seeing this, Rong Jindong hurriedly grabbed Rong Qing, held him steady, and then said to the child who was pushing him: "We are all classmates, how can we do anything?"
The kid who pushed someone was taught a lesson. His face turned red and he became silent.
Rong Qing, who usually had a lot of things to do and was very delicate, was not angry this time, let alone said anything. She just hugged the food box tightly. Seeing that Xiao Li did not chase her, she settled next to Rong Jindong with peace of mind.
Rong Jindong followed Rong Qing's gaze and saw Xiao Li looking this way.
After Xiao Li met Rong Jindong's eyes, he opened his mouth and smiled, then returned to his class crookedly.
Rong Jindong couldn't tell whether Xiao Li had bullied Rong Qing again, but seeing that Rong Qing didn't cry or make a fuss like usual, he didn't ask anything.
Rong Qing sat down next to Rong Jindong honestly, opened the food box, pinched a piece of sweet corn cake, and brought it to Rong Jindong's mouth.
Rong Jindong stuttered and then said, "Thank you, Xiaoqing."
Rong Qing was very happy. He also ate a piece of pastry and looked down at Rong Jindong writing lyrics.
After Xiao Li sat back in his class position, he began to tilt his head again, keeping his previous movements and remaining motionless.
But this time, there was no feeling of cold gaze coming from behind me, until the big bell outside rang and the next class was about to start.
The next class is the last class of the day.
This class is over and school is about to end.
Xiao Li finished class honestly as usual. When her husband said it was time for school to end, she packed her small backpack and walked over, waiting for Rong Jindong.
Rong Jindong carefully arranged the writing and ink before getting up and holding Xiao Li's hand and walking outside.
The boy was waiting outside. When he saw the young master coming out from a distance, he walked up to take the young master's backpack.
But because all the students went outside after school time, and some boys went in directly to find their masters, more and more people came in and out.
After several figures blocked him, Rong Jindong felt something was wrong.
However, when Rong Jindong turned around to look again, he found that Xiao Li, whom he had been holding, was gone, followed by Rong Qing at his feet.
Rong Qing looked at Rong Jindong, a little confused, and asked: "Brother Xiaojin, why are you holding me? I want to go that way."
He pointed in another direction. In that direction, there was the carriage of the Seventh Prince's Palace.
Rong Jindong let go of Rong Qing's hand and said, "Maybe there are too many people in the school. I made a mistake. Did Xiao Qing see Xiao Li?"
Rong Qing disliked the big devil the most. He curled his lips and shook his head when he heard this.
Rong Jindong felt uneasy for a moment and looked inside the academy.
Rong Qing didn't know what happened. Just now, he instinctively followed the crowd and walked out of the academy. Someone pushed him, and he bumped into Brother Xiaojin. Then Brother Xiaojin pulled him without turning his head. The low one said to him, "Be careful," and finally took him out.
Now it seems that Brother Xiao Jin must have recognized the wrong person, but he saw the big devil and Brother Xiao Jin together before.
In the blink of an eye, why did the big devil disappear?
Students after school came out one after another. After a quarter of an hour, there was no one in the academy. Rong Jindong did not wait for Xiao Li. The uneasiness in his heart increased and he hurriedly walked in. After checking, there was still no trace of Xiao Li.
When he searched for nearly half an hour to no avail, he finally realized that Xiao Li was missing.
Rong Jindong's face turned pale and he returned to the Third Prince's Mansion without stopping. He got off the carriage and ran towards the inner courtyard without saying a word.
When he arrived outside Liu Wei's courtyard, Rong Jindong saw his master clumsily holding the needle and thread and poking into the cloth.
He walked in quickly and said with a pale face: "Master, Xiao Li is missing!"
A needle misplaced, and Liu Wei pricked her finger. Suddenly, a red blood emerged from her fingertips, and then the blood beads grew larger and spread.
Liu Wei subconsciously held her fingertips in her mouth and licked the blood off her fingers. Then she raised her eyes, stared at Rong Jindong for a moment, and asked, "What?"
Rong Jindong panicked and recounted what had happened in the academy before, and reassured him again and again: "I have searched inside and outside the academy, and the gentlemen who have not left have also asked, and they all said they had not seen Xiao Li. I just came back, and the concierge also said that Xiao Li I haven’t returned home yet, Master, Xiao Li is missing, what should I do?!”
…
The black cloth covering his face and eyes covered everything.
Xiao Li slumped in the carriage, listening to two male voices discussing: "Is it really good to take medicine? Didn't your Excellency say that we should invite the person back?"
"Please? Didn't you see how clever this kid is? Let alone getting close, just looking at him twice can make him wary. If we are really exposed to him, there is no guarantee that he will not make a big deal of the matter. Sir We only said that we would invite the child back, but we didn’t say how to invite him. Besides, the dose of the drug is small, so nothing will happen. When we go back to the house and wake him up, who will know that we used the drug?"
"That's what I say, but the child hasn't moved. Is there something wrong? Is the dose really not too heavy? Why do I feel a little hung up?"
"Don't worry, no one will die."
Xiao Li listened hazily for a while, but didn't hear anything of value, so he lost interest and just leaned on the soft cushion under his body, thinking in his mind.
After being taken out of the academy, the carriage headed west. It should have passed three main roads and seven minor roads by now. According to this journey, the carriage should be heading outside the city.
Could it be that they wanted to take him out of the city?
But if you want to leave the city, you will definitely not reach your destination for a while. However, when school is over, it is not far from dinner time. Xiao Li is hungry now, and the carriage has not arrived, so he wants to eat tonight What? Are you hungry?
When Xiao Li thought of this possibility, the box of pastries that Rong Qing carried with him appeared in Xiao Li's mind. If he had known this, he should have grabbed it and eaten it beforehand, so as to cushion his stomach first.
