Chapter 1197: Bai Zhun Becomes Anxious

“What about the other places? The training ground and the small sandpile that she often goes to? There’s no sign of her either?”

Bai Zhun was really anxious. Anyone could tell.

Because he had never been so flustered like today.

Auntie Wang looked at how anxious her Young Master looked and blamed herself. “It’s all my fault. Young Mistress usually gets up past six o’clock. I knew that well but when I didn’t see her today, I just thought she had gotten up late. I should have gone upstairs to take a look at that time. Then maybe…maybe she wouldn’t have gone missing…”

“Ajiu won’t get lost like that.” Bai Zhun’s voice sank. “She must be somewhere. That’s right. She must be somewhere. Keep looking. Search the room and the compound.”

Xiao Lin knew that Bai Zhun had already lost his rationality. There was no reason why Bai Zhun would use such a generic method to look for Ajiu. That was as good as trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Bai Zhun really looked everywhere. He ran back and forth the entire compound, asking everyone if they had seen little Ajiu.

Finally, he got to the canteen.

The steamed bun seller said that little Ajiu had come to buy steamed buns, and that she had comeb by before six o’clock.

Six o’clock?

Bai Zhun raised his wrist and looked at the time on his watch.

It was already half past eight.

He had searched the entire place, but he did not even catch a glimpse of Ajiu.

How did things turn out this way?

Bai Zhun was born in this military compound. He knew very well that once a child went missing, the best time to search was within two hours.

But now, almost three hours had passed since Ajiu disappeared.

Where exactly had she gone?

Bai Zhun raised his hand and bashed the wall beside him fiercely.

There was a loud bang!

Li Hailou, who was following behind him, was frightened. He said worriedly, “Bai Zhun…”

“It’s all my fault. If I had gone home to sleep yesterday, this wouldn’t have happened to Ajiu,” Bai Zhun’s throat was hurting as he said this.

Only he knew how regretful he was.

Why did he have to be angry with a child?

She just fancied a celebrity, that was all.

Ajiu was only so young and couldn’t be in the sun for too long. Where would she go in such hot weather?

Bai Zhun looked around him. His youthful face was covered in a layer of crystal-clear beads of sweat. Even his black hair was drenched in sweat, but he didn’t seem to feel any of this and continued to search.

Xiao Lin could not stand it anymore. He put his hand on his shoulder and stopped him. “Bai Zhun, calm down. Maybe things are not as bad as you think. Think about it carefully. It’s not possible for just anyone to enter this place. If something really happened, how could we not know? Since Auntie Wang only realized that little Ajiu was missing later and she even went to the canteen to buy steamed buns, maybe it’s not that something bad has happened.”

Li Hailou was also standing beside Bai Zhun.

The three youths did not even go to school. After such a thing happened, no one was in the mood to go to school anymore.

Fortunately, Bai Zhun finally listened to Xiao Lin’s words. He turned to the side and his gaze became a little calmer.

Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, he immediately turned around and ran towards the guard room.

“Bring up today’s entry and exit records and video records.”

The guards standing guard in the courtyard were all military personnel.

But Bai Zhun was not an adult and did not have the right to order them around.

“Young Master Bai, we can only bring up the records for you if General Bai is here.”

When Bai Zhun heard this, he did not care about what his grandfather usually taught him and barged in directly. As he was not unfamiliar with computers, he directly entered the time segment and began to search for records in the video database.

“Young Master Bai, you can’t do this!” the guard shouted anxiously behind Bai Zhun.

At this time, Xiao Lin and Li Hailou had a tacit understanding as the two of them joined hands to block the guard’s way.

Bai Zhun activated the four-screen mode.

The so-called four-screen mode was to observe four images at the same time.

He entered the time from six to seven.

“According to what the canteen uncle said, since he saw Ajiu just before six o’clock, if Ajiu really left the compound, then it must be somewhere during this time,” Bai Zhun said. AAt the same time, he focused on watching the images from six to ten minutes past six.

The images flashed by particularly quickly, and the guard behind was already dumbfounded.

Bai Zhun, on the other hand, looked like he was engrossed in homework or something as his eyes quickly followed the rotation of the images on the screen. Finally, his mouse paused and stopped at an image, and then he quickly maximized the image.

“Found it!” Li Hailou could not help but shout.

Even the guard next to him also paused for a moment.

Li Hailou looked at the three-second video again and frowned. “Little Ajiu…did she leave on her own?”

After saying this, Li Hailou subconsciously looked at Bai Zhun. That kind of paleness was almost never seen on Bai Zhun’s face.

At first, he had thought that something had happened.

But now, he could clearly see that little Ajiu had left on her own. There was no one else but her.

Bai Zhun looked at the video and felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained in an instant.

He remembered what his grandfather had said to him yesterday.

He had said, “Be careful, even little Ajiu can’t stand you.”

Bai Zhun’s stiff fingers could barely move, as if it was difficult for him to even stand up.

At this time, Old Master Bai walked in with a cane. His military uniform was very dignified. He first looked at his grandson and let out a long sigh, then he took out a piece of paper. “This was found in you and little Ajiu’s room. Little Ajiu put it on the desk where you often do your homework. Take a look.”

Bai Zhun was shocked and took the piece of paper from him.

“Big Brother, by the time you see this piece of paper, I would have already left the compound. The Bai family is your home. You can’t not go home because of me. Grandpa will miss you, and I will miss you too. I know I’m too clingy. Sometimes, you have to take care of me, so you can’t even get to do your own things. Therefore, I have decided to go back to the mountain. I thought about it, and still feel that life on the mountain is more suitable for me. After coming down the mountain, I’ve been stuck to you all day, so I’m sure you feel tired. Wuli Buddha said to give others a certain amount of freedom, otherwise, the two of them would find it harder and harder to get along more. I don’t want to become like that with my Big Brother. In the future, if you miss me, you can come to the mountain to see me. When I miss you, I can also write letters to you. There’s no phone on the mountain, but if I can write letters, I will try my best to write some to my little brother. XOXO.”

The last ‘XOXO’ was something the child recently learned. A very cute little paw print was also printed on the back, and there were a few serious looking words above it: Yours sincerely, Ajiu.
