5th day after the incident.
Early in the morning, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu came for a small visit to the hospital along with home-cooked food for Mr. Tan as Mr. Lu was quite worried that Mr. Tan was skipping his meals or he was only eating take-outs which was not good for his health.
"Mr. Tan if Haio did not love me enough then I might have taken you as my love rival." Said Mrs. Lu in a cheerful tone to brighten the dull mood in the hospital room which worked and there was a series of laughter heard in the room.
After finishing the meal.
"Did they got any information or lead so that we can reach the kidnapper?" asked Mr. Tan.
"No, I think it was done by the professional as not a single clue was left out. Xu Han contacted me to know about Xing's situation as they needed to take victims' statements and I informed him about Xing's condition and also assured him that we will immediately contact them after Xing's consciousness returns." Said Mr. Lu.
"Why would anyone try to even hurt her I don't understand. She is such a sweet child?" asked Mr. Tan looking towards Xing's bed.
"The motive behind this kidnapping is unknown as we did not get any call for ransoms and we found Xing in that condition so it seems that it is done for a personal foe." Said Mr.Lu.
"I don't get it. According to Xing's nature, she does not even raise voices to others, what can be the reason to have such enmity with her that other person wants her to be dead?" asked Mr. Tan in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Don't worry Xaio, we will find out as soon as Xing wakes up from her consciousness as she is the only lead for police to take this investigation further." Said Mr. Lu in a sad tone.
"Hope she wakes up soon." Said Mr. Tan.
"She is a strong girl of course she will wake up soon so you should also watch after your health Xiao."
Afterward, Mr. and Mrs. Lu left the hospital as it was being late.
Later that evening Mr. Tan informed about Xing condition to two of her friends and also asked them to visit Xing if they have some time.
Looking at Xing's face for a long time he started remembering the day when he found Xing without even realizing it.
8 years ago.
He was traveling to LangBong village to have a small vacation from his work. The only means of transportation to that village was through road and the village was quite far from city B so he was driving his own car so that it will be convenient for him.
After driving for 3 hours only then he was able to cross the busy city life. He was driving in a relatively remote road which was not even pitched yet for another 40 minutes.
Then suddenly it started to rain heavily along with thunders and lighting due to which he planned to wait for some time so that the rain may stop or may ease up. He was a little bit afraid to drive ahead as the condition of the road was bad and he was traveling for the first time through this road so, he stopped at the riverbank which was along the way. Though it was 2 P.M at noon, due to the current weather it was cloudy.
While he was resting inside the car watching towards the river and enjoying the rain he suddenly saw something floating with the river and being swamped at the riverbank as it was quite dark due to the clouds that were blocking the sun rays, he was not able to identify the object which was brought by the river water.
First, he ignored the object as he thought that it may be a branch of a tree or something but due to the nagging feeling he was having. He decided to check once to cure his curiosity and he was very much thankful that he wanted to do so as when he went towards the object that came along with the river water with his umbrella, he saw a little girl who was laying in the riverbank unconsciously.
His first instinct was to check her pulse and he found out that she was still alive but her pulse rate was slow hinting that it may stop at any time so he immediately took the girl towards his car and returned back the way he came from.
As he was worried about the girl's wellbeing he drives at a really fast speed and was able to reach the nearest hospital in the city within 30 minutes. And the girl was directly sent to the emergency ward.
