sensible

That year, Lu Qiubai was very young and didn't understand anything except that one day in a year was special.

In his impression, father and mother are the sum of all the beautiful words in the world, nothing can compare with them.

So, when that day came, he quietly waited hopefully for his father and mother to come home from get off work early, hug him, kiss him, and tease him as usual.

However, he waited for nothing that day.

Uncle brought a maple leaf necklace with a slight glint of light on it, and two letters engraved on the joint of the necklace lock: SL.

S is Su's initials, representing mother, and L is Lou's initials, representing father.If his uncle hadn't pointed it out to him, the little Lu Qiubai would never have discovered such a small detail that was so simple that it could be ignored.

Su Xue'an sighed, hugged Lu Qiubai in his arms, stretched his hands into Lu Qiubai's arms to tickle, Lu Qiubai smiled and avoided, and his uncle said while tickling: "The villains are coming! Kid Qiubai is afraid Are you not afraid?"

Lu Qiubai, who was like a small dumpling, put his hands on his hips like an adult, raised his head and said resolutely, "Don't be afraid! I want to catch bad guys like my father!"

"So powerful? What about uncle? Is it good to be like uncle?"

"Hi uncle! Mom is also good! Everything is good!"

Su Xuean smiled very satisfied: "Then dad went to catch bad guys today, how about kid Qiubai play with uncle?"

"……it is good!"

"That's great! Today uncle wants our little friend Qiubai to have a good birthday!"

Su Xuean took Lu Qiubai to choose a new outfit, bought a cake, and brought it to his playground to play with his precious nephew.

The phone rang a few times, and my uncle answered the call with a serious expression on his face.

He knelt down, looked at Lu Qiubai, and said, "Xiao Baibai, can you go somewhere with uncle?" Lu Qiubai responded with a childish voice, "Okay!" with a lollipop in her mouth.

Su Xuean drove to the police station, put Lu Qiubai on the soft sofa, and asked anxiously, "Comrade policeman, what's going on?"

"Are you Lu Xie's family?"

"Yes, he is my brother-in-law, and this child is his son." Su Xuean pointed to Lu Qiubai.

The policeman nodded and said: "Lawyer Lu was called by our case team to help, because it involves a child trafficking case, the specific situation cannot be disclosed, anyway, he is safe now, please sign, yes, Lu Before the lawyer left, he told you to take care of his son, and today is his son's birthday."

Su Xue'an felt a little relieved. When he looked at Lu Qiubai, he found that the little Lu Qiubai had fixed his eyes on the person opposite.

On the opposite side is a child, who looks about the same age as Lu Qiubai, with a black body, mud and stains all over his body, messy hair, and he is kneading the hem of his clothes that he has long been unable to distinguish the color.He also seemed to have noticed Lu Qiubai on the opposite side, and looked over with his head down, but his eyes suddenly lit up.

Lu Qiubai received his gaze, and couldn't help shrinking back from the sofa, but the child got up from the ground, ran crookedly in front of Lu Qiubai, stopped suddenly, and whispered timidly: "Cake, cake... Doudou wants Birthday."

The policeman noticed the movement, poked his head out from behind the computer to have a look, and said, "Speaking of which, this child has the same birthday as Lawyer Lu's child. It's a pity that the same people have different fates."

The policeman continued: "When we found him, the traffickers had already pulled him to the countryside with a tractor."

The little Lu Qiubai timidly moved towards the little black boy, carefully pointed to the cake in his hand and asked, "Do you want to eat this?"

The little black boy blinked and nodded without hesitation.

Lu Qiubai stretched out her small white hand and said, "Here!"

The little black boy took it and hugged it in his arms. He rubbed the box with his little hands and didn't open it for a long time. He was so anxious.

Su Xuean came over a few steps, put his hand into the child's arms, took the cake and just opened it, the child snatched it up, grabbed it and ate it hungrily.

"...This child, why does it look like he hasn't eaten for a long time?"

The policeman said: "Our colleague brought some food just now, but he didn't eat anything. We should have bought cakes if we knew he wanted cakes."

"Lu Xie's case is related to this child?"

"Half and half, child abduction is its own case, and there are cases of domestic violence, prostitution, drug abuse, and drug trafficking involved from this child. In short, it is quite complicated."

"What do you mean, children can relate to these?"

"It's the child's parents." The policeman sighed, "It's really helpless to have such a native family. How old is the child? He doesn't understand anything. He only knows how to find his mother, but he doesn't know how he does it." , I actually found Xishi all the way from my hometown with my schoolbag on my back. We called up the monitoring. This child has been sleeping in the train station. Coming and going, he was a little boy again, and he was discovered not long after. According to the clues, we have already found his parents, but...for such parents, we also find it very difficult."

While speaking, a group of policemen entered the door, followed by a middle-aged woman with a vicissitudes of life.

The middle-aged woman lowered her head and said nothing, the policeman said: "Name." The woman bowed her head and did not answer.

The policeman knocked on the table and asked again: "Name?" The woman still didn't answer.

The policeman sullenly said: "Why, I can't speak now? Do you know what you did? Throw the child away, let the child look for you everywhere, are you worthy of being a mother?!"

The woman raised her head, her face was already full of tears, she couldn't help shaking her head in denial: "I...I didn't, I don't know..."

Seeing this, Su Xuean pulled Lu Qiubai and said, "Let's go, don't look at it. Uncle will take you to eat delicious food." But Lu Qiubai shook off his hand.

Suddenly, a crisp call came from the corner: "...Mom?"

The woman froze when she heard this voice.

The little black boy ran up to the woman barefoot, hugged her leg and shouted: "Mom."

The woman turned around and stopped looking at him.Taking a deep breath, he begged the policeman: "...Comrade policeman, I'm already like this, and I can't let my son go through this muddy water like me. Please do me a favor and take him in. Please."

"□□ It's about the orphanage. The orphanage only accepts orphans. Is your son an orphan? As long as the parents are still alive, no matter who wants to adopt this child, you and your husband must get permission. By the way, we are still tracking you down You must also explain the whereabouts of your husband clearly."

The little black child at the woman's feet let out a wow, sat on the ground and began to cry: "Mom, go home, I want to go home." The woman knelt down slowly, hugged the child and cried, "Be obedient...you are a boy , Be strong, and remember to listen to the police uncle in the future, you know?"

Lu Qiubai couldn't remember what happened afterwards.All he knew was that it was the first time in his life that he faced such a scene, and his life, which had always been smooth, was turned upside down.At that time, he took out his most precious maple leaf necklace from his pocket and handed it to the child.

Su Xuean hugged him and disappeared into the snowy night.

It was only later that Lu Qiubai found out that the reporter's mother followed Lu Qiubai's father to the scene.The traffickers abducted several children into the tractor, and the children were crying and screaming because of the continuous travel. One child froze to death and was thrown from a high cliff into the rushing river by the traffickers. Several others were fed Many sedatives were used, and after being rescued, the high fever continued, causing serious sequelae.The crazy trafficker knew that he could not escape death, so he picked up a long knife and pointed it at the neck of a child emotionally, yelling continuously.

Lu Qiubai's father was invited to negotiate.Never came back after this.

At that time, Lu Qiubai knew nothing about the world of adults.All I know is that the same thing is being reported on the streets, on TV, and in newspapers.Lu Qiubai once watched it secretly. At that time, a man wielding a long knife was holding a little black child whose face could not be seen clearly on TV.The crying woman holding a microphone on TV is my mother.

Since then, the words black and evil forces, persecution, and resistance have been closely related to mothers.Mothers are thrown into the torrent of child rights protection.

The mother in Lu Qiubai's impression was always gentle and smiling.She always loves to hold Lu Qiubai on her lap, pointing to the few grains of rice left in Lu Qiubai's bowl and saying, "Every grain of rice is hard work", and she always likes to count and count in a thick notebook, and then Lu Qiubai said: "Everything is not easy to come by. Don't forget your original intention and be prepared for danger in times of peace. Don't forget any of them."

Lu Qiubai seemed to understand why her mother made such a choice.

Facing a child born in the same year, the same month, and the same day as her child, but with a completely different fate, it was her mother's nature that made her make such a choice without hesitation.To this day, no one knows what the child's name was, and all his information has been carefully protected by people with kindness.

From then on, that dirty child left a mark in the little Lu Qiubai's heart, reminding Lu Qiubai of one thing all the time - there are many injustices in this world, you have no right to complain, you can only do your best to correct them. change it.

Thinking of this, Lu Qiubai turned around, in a trance.

Mao Qingdou blinked and said, "Lu Qiubai, I seem to be in love."
