That made Qiao Xuan quite confused.
Shao Xianwen was just a little boy. How far could he go? He might have run away himself, but even if he had an adult with him, he would have stopped within dozens of miles.
People might miss some places. But Qiao Xuan would never miss any corner.
She had even looked into the water, but she could see nothing.
Her heart sank. Could Shao Xianwen have been taken away by some human trafficker?
That should not have happened. Human traffickers might be around, but they rarely came to the village to kidnap children. Strangers were always noticed when they were in a village,

Ms. Niu must have asked about strangers from the other children too. If that was the case, they would have reported it to the governmental office rather than go out to seek the child first.
So, where did the four-year-old child go?
Qiao Xuan was feeling a little upset. It would be a little difficult to find the child in this way.
She felt very tired after maximizing her superpower. She could not hold for too long.
Not finding anything, she withdrew her superpower.
Subconsciously, she could not help but feel curious about what Ms. Zhang and Ms. Niu were doing.
Ms. Niu was still awake, sitting by Ms. Yan’s side in the room. Ms. Niu was mumbling about her grandson’s whereabouts, looking really worried.
Ms. Yan was consoling her constantly.
Ms. Zhang must have gotten too tired to continue. She was now back in her room.
She had fallen asleep! She even snored!
Qiao Xuan could not help but look down at her. Her son was missing, and the whole family was so anxious. But she was the mother and was in the midst of a good sleep.
Even if she was tired from crying, she could not have slept so deeply.
She was totally heartless.
Dawn came, and the searching teams came back. Shao Yunduan and everyone else from the village were very tired. But none of them had found Shao Xianwen.
Seeing everyone back fruitless, Ms. Niu let out a scream. She passed out directly, which caused people to get anxious again.
Those who spent the whole night searching were all really tired. They discussed amongst themselves that another batch of people should go and look for the child.
Someone even suggested that they should report it to the government.
What if someone did take the child? That could be possible.
Even Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan started to believe that maybe it was the human traffickers who did it. If they were delayed, they might not even be able to find the child.
So, they could not stand one moment of delay.
Everyone agreed that they needed to try different methods.
Shao Yunduan tried to make himself stay awake, and offered to go to the governmental office. Qiao Xuan offered to tag along.
No one countered that suggestion. They were the County Magistrate’s family and they should be the one who made the report.
The couple decided to take off directly.
Shao Yunduan was already Provincial Champion, and they were sure that County Magistrate Qiao would pay attention to it. They also planned to ask him to search in the neighboring area of the county, and some towns that surrounded the county too.
But Ms. Zhang turned that down. She cried. “No strangers were in the village, so that could not have been possible… We are commoners and we should not get close to governmental officers… They are not easy to deal with..”
