In the book, I changed the villain couple to be a daughter slave

"There's a situation. There's a situation here."

The barking of the search and rescue dog immediately attracted the attention of all search and rescue personnel.

At once, everyone rushed in the direction of the shouting.

The place where the search and rescue dog was located was a vertically broken mountain wall. When Li Xiao arrived, a rescuer came over with a sky blue flowery hairpin in his hand.

"Boss Li, take a look, is this your daughter's?"

When Li Xiao saw the hairpin, his heart sank suddenly, and his hands holding the hairpin were shaking uncontrollably.

The voice was stuck in the throat for a long time, and then he said with a bit of hoarseness: "Yes."

This hairpin was designed by an intern designer at the jewelry design competition under Li’s company.

At that time, Li Mian was with him in the company, and the secretary sent the design draft to him for review, which was seen by Li Mian.

Since she liked it, Li Xiao made an exception and customized this eliminated work into a finished product.

"Mr. Li, don't worry. If you can find the hairpin, it means the child has been to this area. There is hope if he didn't make it to the end."

The rescuer comforted him with a few words and then prepared to continue moving forward with the search dog.

Li Xiao hummed heavily, then carefully put the broken hairpin into his pocket.

At this moment, the search and rescue dog was still barking at the bottom of the cliff.

"There may be someone down there, let's go down and take a look."

The rescuers stopped where they were and began to organize their equipment, sending a teammate down to take a look first.

Soon, the rescuers who climbed down along the rope soon found the seriously injured kidnapper under the cliff.

At this moment, he was hanging on a protruding rock on the mountain wall, with multiple injuries on his body, and his life was in critical condition.

When the rescuers saw him, they immediately reported the situation to their teammates on the cliff.

However, the experienced rescuers immediately guessed the kidnapper's identity as soon as they saw his clothes.

"The other party might be a kidnapper because he does not have any qualities of a hiking enthusiast or a rock climbing enthusiast."

Hearing this, Li Xiao immediately stepped forward and said to the rescuer on the other end of the intercom: "Is the person still alive?"

"Alive, but not in good condition. He needs to be sent to the hospital as soon as possible."

Although Li Xiao was already thinking about killing this man at this moment, Li Mian's whereabouts was still unknown, so he could only place his hopes on this man.

Li Xiao: "Save the person first and confirm his identity."

"understandable."

Next, everyone spent a lot of time and energy and finally rescued the kidnapper from the rock wall.

Seeing that he was still conscious, Li Xiao could no longer control himself and rushed over, grabbing his collar and asking, "Where's my daughter? Where is she?"

The kidnapper looked at the angry Li Xiao in front of him and immediately realized who the other person was.

His face was pale, and he felt a little scared when facing Li Xiao's anger.

But thinking about the life and death he had just experienced, the kidnapper had nothing to fear anymore and replied weakly: "The child ran away by himself. He ran away the night before last..."

"I looked for her all night, and only saw footprints in front of a stream on the hill ahead."

"Li Xun asked me to capture her. I really didn't intend to hurt her. I just wanted to capture her and send her back after a few days."

After hearing this, Li Xiao did not feel relieved at the news about his daughter. Instead, his heart sank even more.

Looking at the airless forest where no sunlight could be seen, he didn't dare to imagine what would happen to Li Mian, a five-year-old child.

Li Xiao suppressed the fear in his heart, and also suppressed the urge to attack the kidnappers.

He looked at the kidnapper with a stern gaze and gritted his teeth, "You'd better pray that my daughter is okay, otherwise... I want you to pay with your life!"

Next, four or five rescuers were responsible for sending the kidnappers down the mountain and contacting the police.

The remaining people continued to search and rescue according to the location given by the kidnappers.

After about an hour, everyone finally arrived at the cabin in the mountains. After searching around without any results, they held on to their last hope and continued towards the mountain stream that the kidnappers mentioned.

The ravine the kidnappers were talking about was deeper than where he was found, and the bushes were so dense that it was impossible to see clearly what was going on below.

Looking at such a high mountain stream, Li Xiao felt a little overwhelmed.

He didn't even dare to think about the worst outcome.

The rescuers did not waste any time and immediately took out their equipment and started to go down.

After more than an hour's effort, three rescuers successfully descended to the bottom of the mountain stream.

The good news is that no trace of the child was found down there.

But the bad news is that the child is still nowhere to be found.

Seeing that it was getting dark, everyone had to return to the cabin to rest temporarily and prepare to continue the search and rescue the next day.

On the other hand, after Li Mian was rescued by the old man, his tense nerves finally relaxed.

The old lady took her to take a bath and change her clothes. After seeing that her body was covered with bruises and scratches, the old couple carried her to a small clinic at the entrance of the village for a check-up.

Finally, the old couple spent several hundred dollars to have her undergo a full body examination. After making sure that she had no broken bones, they prescribed some topical medicine for her and carefully applied it to her.

"Little kid, do you remember your home phone number? Tell grandpa and I'll contact your family."

In the main room, Li Mian, wearing ill-fitting clothes, sat obediently on a bamboo stool and skillfully repeated Li Xiao's phone number.

"Oh, I can't get through. They say it's out of service area."

Li Mian blinked in surprise, then mentioned the home phone number.

While dialing the landline, the old man praised: "You have a really good memory, you actually remember everything."

At that time, the Li family in the imperial capital.

For the past two days, Wen Yan has been sitting in front of the phone without sleeping, eating or drinking.

When the Wen family heard the news, the old couple also rushed over to wait with her.

Wen Boling followed another search and rescue team to search and rescue in other forest areas.

Mother Wen looked at her already haggard daughter, brought a cup of hot milk over distressedly, and advised: "Ayan, you should at least eat something, don't ruin your body."

Wen Yan had cried all her tears these past two days, her eyes were dry and red, and she shook her head: "Mom, I have no appetite."

Father Wen, who had been silent all this time, also spoke up: "Then you can't just stay away from food, drink and sleep, or you'll get sick."

"I can't eat. When I think about Mianmian being outside alone, wondering if she's scared or hungry, I just..."

Wen Yan choked up as she spoke, lowered her head and sobbed.

Mother Wen's eyes were filled with heartache. As a grandmother, they were also worried after Li Mian disappeared.

In just two days, the old couple looked much older.

But at this moment, the landline phone, which had not rung in the past two days, suddenly rang.

Everyone in the living room stood up quickly, and Wen Yan answered the phone as quickly as possible.

"Hey."

After hearing the voice, the old man on the other end of the phone said with a regional accent: "Did you lose a child? I found her in the mountains."
