As dusk fell, Han Yu sent off the last ferry between Bailong Port and Niu Peng Port for the day and was about to go to the cafeteria with his schoolmate when Old Wang and his wife arrived with a couple who seemed very honest and straightforward.
Han Yu was so concerned that he invited the four into his office without bothering to eat.
Before Han Yu could ask, Old Wang eagerly introduced the others as the parents of a student who had also run away from home and was likely to have gone to East Guang with Wang Xiaosheng.
"How did you find out?"
"Xiaosheng told a child surnamed Hu that he was going to East Guang to learn mechanics and earn a lot of money. We asked that child yesterday, and he might have been too scared to tell us the truth. This afternoon we asked him again, and upon mentioning the technical school in East Guang, the child didn't dare hide it anymore and told us everything."
