Reborn before her mother committed suicide, the heroine went crazy

Wan Anning rode a bicycle for an hour and a half before finally reaching the county town.

After searching for a long time, she finally found a place to make a phone call. It was still early and the shop owner had just opened the door. Wan Anning was the first customer. The good thing was that no one would disturb her, but the bad thing was that what she said might be clearly heard by the boss and would be deeply impressed...

When she was about to dial the number, she suddenly thought of what Aunt Pan said, and she hesitated.

She has already avoided the town, so there is no way she can be discovered in the county, right?

After hesitating for a long time, Wan An Ning's hand finally fell on the dial button. Now that she was already here, thinking about what Lu Yuqi and her daughter would face, she couldn't bear it.

She dialed the number, but it didn't go through...

After dialing several times but failing to get through, Wan An Ning felt a chill in his heart.

After putting down the receiver, she looked at the number in her hand and frowned: Did she guess wrong? This is not a phone number?

At this moment, the boss took the feather duster and swept the room. Seeing Wan An Ning in a daze, she walked over, glanced at her and asked, "Didn't you get through?"

Wan An Ning nodded: "Well, I can't get through..."

"Is it local? Or out of town? For out-of-town calls, you have to dial the area code first..."

"Area code?"

Wan An Ning was stunned. This... Lu Yuqi didn't write the area code...

She vaguely remembered that before mobile phones became popular, when calling out-of-town numbers with landlines, one had to dial the area code first. Now it was 1989, telephone services had just started, and mobile phones had just entered the country. A complete system had not yet been formed, and she really couldn't remember the area codes of various places!

"You don't know the area code?"

The boss put the feather duster under his arm, picked up the phone and said, "Go ahead, which place do you want to call?"

Wan An Ning's eyes suddenly lit up. Yes, the boss must know the area codes of various places.

But... she didn't know where the phone number was from!

Looking at the small notebook with area codes recorded in the boss's hand, Wan An Ning gritted his teeth and made a decision.

Since there is no area code, I have to try each place one by one. Although it is troublesome, it is the only way to make a call quickly now!

"Sister, my grandfather is sick and dying. I just want to see my father for the last time... My father left home and left this phone number before he left. He said it was his boss's number... Sister, please help me. If you can find my father, I will give you ten dollars, not to mention the phone bill. What do you think?"

Wan An Ning said, took out ten yuan and put it in front of the boss...

The boss' eyes were immediately glued to the ten yuan. Ten yuan at that moment was really a lot of money. If the money for phone calls was not counted, she couldn't make ten yuan every day from her small shop.

"It doesn't matter whether it's money or not. What's most important is to let the old man pass away peacefully. Don't worry, leave it to me!"

Wan An Ning handed the number copied from the trademark to the boss. After the boss took a look, his expression relaxed a little: "Oh, it starts with 90. Your father, the boss, is a rich man..."

Wan An Ning was puzzled: "Sister, you have a really good eye. You can tell he's a rich man just by looking at his phone number?"

The boss said with a bit of show-off: "What's so difficult about this? The more you see, the more you know. Take this phone number for example. It's not an ordinary phone. It's the number of a mobile phone that was just launched in our country last year. Just think about it, how expensive it is. Only rich people can afford it."

Wan An Ning nodded in agreement. This was indeed true. The price of a mobile phone nowadays could exchange for several houses in their county. Anyone who could afford this was really wealthy!

Since Lu Yuqi left this number in a desperate situation, it was obvious that the owner of this phone was very close to her. This also made Wan An Ning more certain that Lu Yuqi came from a wealthy family.

I hope that by helping her, we can establish a good relationship.

The boss took her notebook, pulled a stool over, and sat in front of a phone: "Since you can afford a mobile phone, you must not be from a poor place. Let's try it in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou first. Don't worry, we will definitely get through today!"

Wan Anning thanked the boss gratefully: "Thank you so much."

After saying that, she stood next to the boss and watched her check the area codes in the notebook and dial them one by one...

After trying more than ten times and none of the calls went through, Wan An Ning became a little anxious, but the boss was very calm. He poured a glass of water and continued dialing.

When dialing the twentieth number, the boss heard a long beep...beep...beep sound, and he was immediately shocked: "It's connected! I just don't know if the other party will answer the call. If not, let's dial a few more times..."

Wan An Ning stared at the phone nervously until the call was almost over. Suddenly, someone answered the phone: "Hello? Who is this?"

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded hoarse and seemed very tired.

Wan An Ning immediately picked up the phone: "Hello, do you know Lv Yuqi?"

"pat..."

Wan An Ning heard the sound of something falling on the other end of the phone.

Her heart immediately settled down. She glanced at the area code displayed on the phone screen and memorized it quietly.

"Who are you? How do you know Yuqi? Yuqi...where is she?"

Wan An Ning saw the boss standing next to him and quickly handed him ten yuan...

After the boss picked up the phone, he glanced at it again and said, "It costs 1.5 yuan per minute. Please keep an eye on the time."

Seeing the boss walk away, Wan An Ning asked again: "Do you know Lv Yuqi?"

The person on the other end of the phone was already waiting anxiously: "I am Lu Yuqi's brother. Who are you? How did you know my phone number? Where are Yuqi and my sister now?"

Before Wan An Ning could speak, another person came on the other end of the phone. This time it was a woman's voice: "Hello? Hello? Comrade, did Yuqi ask you to call us? Where is he now? Can you tell me? I, I will kneel down and kowtow to you, my daughter, please, have pity on my heart as a mother and tell me where my daughter is..."

Wan An Ning felt his throat was a little dry: "I..."

"Do you want money? Don't worry, I have money. As long as you tell me where my daughter is, I will give you as much money as you want..."

Wan An Ning took a deep breath: "Auntie, don't worry. I'll tell you an address. Please write it down. Lv Yuqi was abducted to our place. She secretly gave me this phone number. I tried many times before I got through. I don't have much time. I may not be able to contact you again in the future. Please remember the address I told you and come to save her quickly. If it's too late, it may be..."

"Okay, you tell me, I'll write it down."

"H Province, Longkou City, Xincheng County, Yongfeng Town, Wanjia Village, west of the village, Kela's home."

Wan An Ning whispered the address and described the environment around Kela's house in detail. After the person on the other end of the phone wrote it down and checked it with him, she continued, "You don't need to report to the police..."

After thinking for a while, he probably felt that what he said was not very good, so he changed his words and said, "Even if you want to report to the police, don't report to the local police. Do you understand what I mean?"

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be jogging, breathing heavily: "I know, don't worry, and...thank you!"

Wan An Ning shook his head: "You're welcome. Also, you'd better disguise yourself before entering the village... If you are lucky enough to rescue Lu Yuqi, don't contact me again. I still have to live in the village for the time being, and no one can know that I made this call. I hope you can understand..."

"okay, I get it."

After hanging up the phone, Wan An Ning sat in front of the phone for a while before calling his boss over to settle the phone bill.

Although the boss seemed to know that she had lied before, she did not expose her and took the money with a normal expression.
