Farming Space Makes Me Rich

Chapter 396 Search

Translator: Lonelytree

After Little Light and Big Light disappeared, the whole village went out to search for them.

Some people suspected that they had gone into the mountains to eat grass.

Therefore, the young and middle-aged men in the village organized a search up the mountain.

However, they found nothing.

“Where did the Little Cattle King go?” The villagers asked in confusion.

“The Little Cattle King is very smart and sensible. He never walks around randomly. How did he go so far this time?”

“No,” A villager immediately denied. “From the looks of it, the Little Cattle King obviously didn’t leave on its own.”

“Third uncle, what do you mean by that?” A young man immediately asked.

“I mean, he might have been stolen by someone,” Xiao Bangyu said.

“Ah?” Someone couldn’t believe it. “How… is that possible? The Little Cattle King and his mother are very clever. They are very wary of strangers. Besides, Xiao Lingyu has installed surveillance cameras at all the

intersections. How would people steal them?”

“Yes.”

“Let’s ask Xiao Lingyu first to see if she has found any clues.”

The surveillance cameras at all the intersections were installed by Xiao Lingyu.

“Right, let’s ask Xiao Lingyu first. We’ve already searched here, but we haven’t found any traces of the Little Cattle King and his mom. I think the possibility of them being stolen is very high.

“Let’s go back and meet up with the others. Hopefully, the others have found them.”

“Okay,” Everyone agreed.

Then, the group of 10 to 20 people went back to the village. Probably only Little Light and Big Light would get such a large search group.

It was now summer. Little Light and Big Light disappeared around the early morning. However, the villagers only received the news of their disappearance around 5 pm. The villagers took the initiative to search for the

two. When they returned, the sky was dark already. It was unwise for them to continue staying on the mountain.

Furthermore, the search group was large. If Little Light and Big Light were on the mountain, they would be found already.

The search group slowly returned.

Those who returned went straight to Xiao Lingyu’s house to ask about the update, only to find that there were no clues. This surprised many people.

There were so many surveillance cameras installed, but there were no clues. This wasn’t possible.

ot everyone was as smart as Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu. They couldn’t guess the reason at once. After Mother Xiao thanked the villagers for their help, the villagers dispersed.

After the villagers left, Father Xiao and Mother Xiao were worried. Little Light and Big Light were not found. They were most likely stolen.

Even though the other members of the Xiao Family didn’t know about the connection between Little Light and Xiao Lingyu, they were also worried.

Eldest Uncle Xiao thought for a moment and guessed, “Big Light and her son are usually very obedient and sensible. It’s impossible for them to leave by themselves. Then it’s very likely that they have been stolen.”

He looked at Xiao Lingyu and asked curiously, “Yu ‘Er, don’t you have any clues from the surveillance?”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “No clues at all.”

Eldest Uncle Xiao and the others were very surprised. “How is this possible? If the two cows were captured, the thieves wouldn’t be able to avoid the hidden cameras so easily.”

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Yes, it’s possible.”

“What’s going on?” Grandpa Xiao asked seriously. “If they were outsiders, how could they have avoided the cameras? No, someone must have told them where the cameras are.”

Once Grandpa Xiao said that everyone else caught on.

“That’s right!” Xiao Lingyu nodded. “Tianhao and I have investigated for a long time, and we have the same guess. Only the people in our village know about the surveillance cameras.” When Xiao Lingyu installed the

surveillance cameras, she did not hide them from the villagers.

After all, this involved the entire village. Xiao Lingyu had an obligation to tell the villagers, and the villagers also had the right to know.

Otherwise, Xiao Lingyu could be sued for secretly recording the privacy of others. She told them about all the cameras so that they could do things in their privacy. Plus, Xiao Lingyu didn’t want to pry into other

people’s business. Therefore, only the villagers would know the specific locations of these hidden cameras.

“So, you suspect that the villagers stole Big Light and her son?!” Grandpa Xiao asked sharply.

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “I don’t think so. I think a villager has colluded with outsiders, and they have stolen and transported them out of the village.”

“Why do you say that?” Third Uncle Xiao asked in confusion.

“Because if the villagers were the thieves, they would have no place to hide Little Light and Big Light. Taoyuan Village is only so big. People will find out immediately.” Xiao Lingyu explained, “So, the only possibility is

that someone in the village has colluded with outsiders to steal the two cattle away.”

After hearing this, the members of the Xiao family took a deep breath. Then, anger appeared on their faces.

“When I find the culprit, I’ll break their necks.” Third Uncle Xiao clenched his fist and said angrily. Then, Third Uncle Xiao asked, “Yu ‘Er, do you have anyone you suspect?”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “I don’t have any clues at the moment, so I can’t suspect anyone. However…” She paused for a moment. “It is my belief that the villager who colluded with outsiders has to be

someone who hates our family.” For example, Xiao Chengcai didn’t even hesitate to sell out Little Light.

Father Xiao frowned and asked, “So you mean those few families?”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “It’s hard to say!”

At this moment, Xiao Lingyun asked, “Sis, have we called the police?”

“No.” Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, “It seems that we have to call the police.”

The thieves could avoid the cameras in Taoyuan Village, but they wouldn’t avoid the cameras at the other places. For example, Xing An Town had surveillance cameras around the city, and some houses had their own

cameras too.

The thieves had to use a car to transport the two large cattle. There were only so many large roads for cars. If they followed this line of investigation, they would find something eventually.

Father Xiao and Mother Xiao were very worried.

The disappearance of Little Light and Big Light was very complicated. They couldn’t dare to imagine the consequence. Therefore, they agreed to call the police.

Just as Xiao Lingyu was about to call the police, they heard a familiar roar. They looked up and saw that it was indeed the familiar helicopter.

This was not the helicopter that the Xiao Family took to rescue Xiao Lingyun. This was the helicopter Gong Tianhao had been using to transport Xiao Lingyu’s peanuts and peanut oils.

Xiao Lingyu looked at Gong Tianhao when she saw the helicopter. There was some doubt in her eyes.

It was the same for the Xiao family.

Gong Tianhao explained, “When someone wanted to develop Taoyuan Village, I sent my people over to protect the Little Cattle King.

“On the first day, my people went to investigate the geographical environments of Taoyuan Village. As elite guards, they are very good at their job.

“At the time, they had installed detection equipment in some places that the villagers had overlooked. Now that Little Light and Big Light have gone missing, I asked them to come back to get their help.”

The Xiao family’s eyes lit up when they heard that. They said happily, “Oh, that’s great.”

The Xiao family trusted Gong Tianhao more than they trusted the police.

“Then should we still call the police?” Xiao Lingyun asked.

Gong Tianhao nodded and said, “Yes. If there really is a traitor in Taoyuan Village, they might get nervous once the police are involved.”

Gong Tianhao got to know the villagers after staying with the Xiao Family. The villagers were still afraid of figures of authority like the police.

Perhaps that traitor didn’t think that the Xiao family would call the police.

After all, Little Light and Big Light were just cattle. And the Xiao Family probably wouldn’t want to expose the identity of the Little Cattle King. Once it was exposed, all the nearby villages would know there was a Little

Cattle King in Taoyuan Village. The Xiao Family was able to earn so much from farming because of this Little Cattle King. That would place Little Light in more danger. Therefore, the traitor probably believed the Xiao

Family would not expose the Little Cattle King by calling the police.

However, the Xiao Family didn’t care. Xiao Lingyu called the police directly.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Lingyu said, “The people at the police station said that they will be here in half an hour.”

“Okay, that’s good!” The Xiao family nodded.

Eldest Uncle Xiao said, “Little Light and his mother have been missing for more than ten hours already. I wonder where they are now.”

Gong Tianhao said, “Don’t worry, everyone. No matter where they are transported to, I will get someone to bring them back in one piece.”

The thieves wouldn’t slaughter Little Light and Big Light. They stole the cattle because they heard about the Little Cattle King’s power. As for Big Light, she was the Little Cattle King’s mother. They wouldn’t murder her

lest they angered the Little Cattle King. So Little Light and Big Light were safe for now.

Hearing Gong Tianhao’s words, Father Xiao and Mother Xiao’s tightly held hands relaxed a little as they became more at ease.

In their hearts, Gong Tianhao had become an omnipotent figure.

Previously, Taoyuan Village was about to be demolished, but Gong Tianhao easily solved that problem. So he should be able to easily resolve this problem too. Or at least that was what they thought.

Mother Xiao said very seriously, “Tianhao, I’ll leave this to you.”

Gong Tianhao smiled and said, “Auntie, I’m Yu ‘Er’s boyfriend. Grandfather, grandmother, I’ll go back now. You guys wait for my news.”

Yue Qilin’s equipment was set up at the Gong Family.

Xiao Lingyu said, “I’ll go with you.”

“Okay!” Gong Tianhao nodded.

Then, Gong Tianhao carried Xiao Lingyu’s computer and went to the Gong family.

The Xiao family was worried and wanted to go with them.

However, Gong Tianhao and the others were there to do serious business. They didn’t want to disturb them, so they didn’t go with them. They waited for the news at home.

It was too dark to venture out to look for the cattle. They could only wait at home for the police to arrive.

“Who has such a grudge against our family?” Grandma Xiao said anxiously, “To think they’d do something like this!”

Third Uncle Xiao said with anger in his eyes, “Yu’Er did say it was those who didn’t get any benefits from the Little Cattle King.”

Grandma Xiao said, “Who can they blame but themselves for that? We have already given them many chances. As long as they apologize, we might allow them to use Little Light’s manure again. But they are very

stubborn. Are they waiting for us to apologize to them?”

Grandma Xiao was also very angry when she said this.

Although they had just returned to Taoyuan Village from Kanglin City, they knew everything that happened in the village and their own family.

Eldest Auntie Xiao also nodded and agreed with her mother-in-law, saying, “That’s right. Apart from Xiao Fuqi’s family, second brother’s family has a good relationship with the other people in the village.

“But some people are just blind. They could be instigated by others to do stupid things.”

“Do you think it could be Xiao Chengcai?” Fourth Uncle Xiao guessed.

“Fourth brother, there’s no evidence. Let’s not make wild guesses. We can’t be throwing around accusations.”

Grandpa Xiao said seriously, “No matter who it is, let’s wait for the people from the police station to arrive first. With Gong Tianhao’s ability and the police’s help, I believe they’ll catch the thief very soon.”

Grandpa Xiao had always been very rational.

“Yes, Dad.” Fourth Uncle Xiao agreed.

When they reached the Gong Family home, Yue Qilin and the other two were already in the courtyard.

Grandfather Gong was sitting by the side drinking tea.

When they saw Gong Tianhao, the three of them called out in unison, “Boss, Miss Xiao!”

Gong Tianhao said, “Little Light and Big Light have been missing for more than ten hours. What we need the most now is to seize the time and find out where they have gone.”

Yue Qilin, Li Wendong, and Xie Zhenzhong were summoned in the past to protect the Little Cattle King. At that time, they were a little surprised, but after that, they also spent some time with this Little Cattle King.

After the development issue was over, they were sent back to their original job. They didn’t expect that once they were gone, the Little Cattle King would be stolen.

Yue Qilin said very seriously, “Boss, don’t worry. We will definitely be able to get Little Light and his mother back as soon as possible.”
