During the lunch break, Zou Hao sneaked up to the 18th floor, but unexpectedly bumped into Zhou Yunling in the corridor.

Zhou Yunling took a deep breath, and forced a slightly ferocious smile on her face: "Brother Xiaohao, is there anything you want to talk to Mr. Fan about recently?"

In fact, Zou Hao, who was one year younger than Zhou Yunling, quickly shook his head. "No."

"Then, if you have anything to do in the future, you can come to me anytime." Zhou Yunling said with a smile. "It's okay, you can go up and have a cup of coffee."

Zou Hao couldn't help shivering. "okay, I get it."

After Zhou Yunling walked away, Zou Hao approached the cleaning room.The door was closed, and Zou Hao just wanted to stretch out his hand, when Aunt Liu's trumpet-like voice suddenly sounded from his right hand: "Zou Hao, what are you doing!"

Zou Hao turned his head and saw that Aunt Liu was holding a lunch box in one hand, standing on the stairs with her hips crossed. "I'm looking for you..." Zou Hao said.

"Look for me, why do you want me to push that door? Can I still be inside!" When Aunt Liu said this, Zou Hao actually felt that it made sense, and couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

Seeing Zou Hao's upright attitude, Aunt Liu's smoldering smell faded a little, and she pointed to the stairs next to her. "What do you want me to do, come and tell me."

Zou Hao followed Aunt Liu out of the fire door and sat down on the stairs side by side. "Aunt Liu," Zou Hao said carefully, "I just want to chat with you. If you have any worries, you can communicate more with our colleagues. Don't hold it in your heart."

"What's on my mind?" Aunt Liu said disdainfully while biting the braised pork ribs. "I have eaten more peppercorns than you have eaten pork, what do you know about my mind?"

"Even if we don't understand, you will feel better if you tell me." Zou Hao is very sincere.

"Why do I feel that something is wrong?" Aunt Liu put down her chopsticks and glanced sideways at Zou Hao. "You specially climbed up to the 18th floor to talk to me, did you come to me for something?"

Zou Hao didn't expect to be found out so quickly, so he had to tell the truth: "I heard people say that your mental condition is not very good recently..."

Aunt Liu snorted coldly. "Not in a good mental state? They mean I have a mental illness!"

"No..." Zou Hao wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Aunt Liu: "Little Zou, tell me what they said about me!"

Zou Haoyi conveyed the truth: "They said that you have been talking to yourself in the mop compartment lately..."

Aunt Liu stared at Zou Hao for a long time, then sighed. "Forget it. I think you are also kind, so I'll tell you the truth." As she spoke, Aunt Liu glanced left and right to confirm that there was no one else nearby, and then lowered her voice: "I asked for half a day off the day before yesterday. , came to work overtime at night, and met two children on the 18th floor."

"Ah," Zou Hao immediately remembered, "A few days ago, there was a delivery man who also said he saw two children on the 18th floor."

"I asked them why they were here. The children told me that they lived in the countryside and came to the city to find their father. They didn't know their father's name, but they only knew the surname Zhang, and they delivered food in the city. The two children The children are less than ten years old. They have no relatives and no reason in the city. They accidentally entered our building, and they don’t know where to go when they go out. I feel sorry for them, so I let them hide in that compartment temporarily and come out at night .” Aunt Liu said.

"How can you hide in such a small room?" Zou Hao stood up immediately, "Aunt Liu, give me the key, we will call the police now, and ask the police to help them find their father."

Aunt Liu immediately reached out and grabbed him. "Don't go! They told me that the reason why they escaped was because their stepmother treated them badly, beat and scolded them, took the money sent by their father to go out to play mahjong all day long, and didn't even give them food. You Call the police, and they will have to be sent back to the countryside to suffer.”

"Then what should we do?" Zou Hao slowly sat back on the steps, lost in thought.

"Don't we have to find it slowly?" Aunt Liu sighed again. "Now I deliberately stay to work overtime every night, and order a takeaway for the children. Maybe I'm lucky, and I will meet their own father to deliver the food."

"Then how about letting them live in the security room first?" Zou Hao suggested.Although the conditions in the security room are also very difficult, at least there are beds, quilts, and a small sun. It must be much more comfortable to live in than the dark and small clean room.

Aunt Liu shook her head. "No. There are too many people in your security room. Once someone calls the police, it's useless. I also thought about taking them home, but I can't explain it because I'm the first in the family. After much deliberation, it's still the cleaning room The safest. Once the two doors are locked, no one will doubt it."

"Okay, I'm going to wash the lunch box." Aunt Liu patted her buttocks and stood up. "You are off work tonight, you can come up and meet them."

Zou Hao has been thinking about this matter all the time, and ran upstairs after work at six o'clock.Aunt Liu pointed to the offices with lights on: "No, there are too many people now, so come later."

Zou Hao went to the small restaurant next to the Baishi Building and ordered a rice bowl. After eating, it was already dark.Zou Hao returned to the 18th floor, and then Aunt Liu took out the key and opened the door of the cleaning room.The light in the corridor penetrated into the small dark room, and the two children squatted against the wall, looking up at Zou Hao and Aunt Liu.

"Niuniu, little mantou, come out." Aunt Liu called softly.This is the first time for Zou Hao to see Aunt Liu who seems to have eaten meth every day, with a maternal radiance on her face.

The two villains came out holding hands, hid behind Aunt Liu, and looked at Zou Hao timidly. "I'm afraid." said the little girl called Niu Niu.

"What are you afraid of? This is Uncle Zou Hao, and he will help you find your father." Aunt Liu said.

The little girl stared at the security uniform on Zou Hao, showing fear, and took another small step back. "I'm afraid of his clothes, and what's in his pockets."

"Niuniu, don't be afraid," Aunt Liu smiled and patted the little girl's head, "That's not a policeman's clothes, he's just a stinky security guard. What's in his pocket? Isn't it just a mobile phone, just like mine."

Zou Hao also smiled at them, but the two children still hid behind Aunt Liu, not daring to get close.

"Let me order takeaway for you. What do you want to eat today?" Aunt Liu took out a worn-out smartphone from her jacket pocket.

"I want to eat braised pork!" Xiao Mantou answered quickly.

"Okay, I'll eat braised pork." Aunt Liu agreed without hesitation, clumsily operating the takeaway software, and finally put the phone in Zou Hao's hand. "Forget it, you come!"

Zou Hao ordered takeaway, and the order was accepted by the merchant in a short while.The delivery boy's name appeared on the order. "Hey, this delivery boy is really surnamed Zhang!"

"Really!" Aunt Liu took the phone and confirmed it herself, then bent down and touched the heads of the two children. "Let's just wait here to see if your dad is coming to deliver food."

A few blocks away, the sad delivery guy Xiao Zhang shook his hand and took another order from Best Building. "It's late at night, why is it on the 18th floor again..." Thinking of the scene in the corridor that day, Xiao Zhang seemed to feel a gust of wind behind him.

After registering in the security room, Xiao Zhang went upstairs in fear, carrying the takeaway bag.The elevator stopped on the 18th floor. As soon as the door opened, four people squatted in the corridor, looking at him in unison.

"It's not him." The little girl who was guarding the elevator door last time was still expressionless this time.

The aunt and the little security guard squatting beside looked disappointed and shook their heads at Xiao Zhang. "It's not you, you go."

Xiao Zhang put the takeaway on the ground, turned around and ran away.The people in this building are all bewitched!

At nine o'clock in the morning, the first thing Li Yifan, the president of Qiyi Network Technology Company, went to the security room of Baishi Building to pick up the courier.

"Mr. Fan, why do you always come to pick up the courier in person?" Zheng Cheng seemed a little disappointed.

Li Yifan immediately read his subtext: "Sorry, it's my fault. Let Yunling come next time."

Zheng Cheng quickly waved his hand. "Mr. Fan, I didn't mean that!"

Zou Haoqiang, who didn't sleep well at night, supported his sore body, found the small cardboard box with Li Yifan's name on the shelf, took it out and handed it to Li Yifan. "Boss Fan, sign it." Zou Hao picked up the pen on the table and handed it to Li Yifan.

Li Yifan took the pen, but he was not in a hurry to write, his eyes were fixed on Zou Hao.Zou Hao felt uncomfortable being stared at, and touched his face unnaturally.Other than dark circles under the eyes, it seems to be fine.

"Zou Hao, have you met someone recently?" Li Yifan asked.

Zou Hao was puzzled by the question. "who?"

"Think about it carefully, I just met you in the past two days." Li Yifan reminded.

Zou Hao tried to recall the experiences of the past two days, and the faces of the two siblings immediately appeared in his mind.He shook his head decisively. "No." Aunt Liu said, the less people know about this, the better.

Li Yifan's face darkened, he stopped talking to Zou Hao, lowered his head and signed, turned around and left.

"Hey, Brother Hao," Zheng Cheng came over and bumped Zou Hao with his shoulder, "Why did you make Mr. Fan angry?"

"I don't know!" Zou Hao, who was so guilty after lying, folded his arms on purpose, straightened his waist, and said the most advanced vocabulary he learned in high school Chinese class: "This man is really a dude! "

Li Yifan on the other end walked into the crowded elevator, and received six or seven "Morning Fan", but he didn't reply with a stinky face.That kid Zou Hao, whose Yintang was so dark that it shone brightly, had the expression on his face as if he had been a thief in the night, yet he dared to lie to him.Even if you eat the guts of a leopard, you will still have to go to jail if you blindly eat a nationally protected animal.

The more Li Yifan thought about it, the angrier he became, the courier box in his hand was crumpled.The elevator door opened on the 18th floor, and three or four colleagues walked out.At that moment, the tip of his nose felt cold, and Li Yifan felt a gloomy wind.He blocked the elevator door that was about to close with his hand, stepped out of the elevator, turned left in the corridor, and walked quickly towards the source of the gloomy wind.

Aunt Liu had just carried the mop and bucket into the corridor and was checking the door lock of the cleaning room when Li Yifan walked over suddenly. "Yeah, Mr. Fan is early."

"Aunt Liu," Li Yifan nodded politely, "Open the door and let me see."

"Open this? There are mops and brooms here, what's so interesting about it..." Aunt Liu panicked.

Li Yifan is serious and determined. "Open."
