Lin Aiguo arrived at Lin Dong's school the next day, but he didn't make it past the security guard at the gate.
Despite his furious ranting and raving, he just couldn't get through the school gate.
In the end, Lin Aiguo had no choice but to wait outside the gate like stalking prey, not believing that Lin Dong wouldn't leave the school.
As it turned out, Lin Dong didn't leave the school at all.
Lin Aiguo had waited for two whole days without catching a glimpse of him.
He had also circled the nearby bungalows of Second Middle School, but couldn't find Lin Xia or Lin Qiu either.
Having nowhere to stay in the city, he had no choice but to head home while the buses were still running.
When he got to his doorstep, there was Liu Shuqin sitting on the bluestone slab.
The gate was locked tight, and none of them, including Qian Chunli, had come back.
