Zhao Cong is 13 years old. On August 23 last year, the A09 edition of this newspaper reported the news that three teenagers in Zhumadian City ran away from home and their parents were struggling to find it with the title "Why Three Little Things" drove away three children ". Among the three children, there is little Zhao Cong.
run away from home
"My parents won't buy me roller skates, so I will go to Zhengzhou to find my uncle."
□ Chief reporter Li Ji
The reporter came to Zhao Cong's home.
Zhao Cong Jr. is 170 cm tall and looks like an adult. But the fifth-grade math textbook on the desk shows that he is still a child. If he hadn't missed his homework, he would be a pupil in grade six now.
He told reporters that a year ago, all the children nearby liked roller skating. He also wanted a pair of roller skates, but he asked his parents for them many times, but they all refused. The reason is that Zhao Cong is tall and fat, and his parents are worried that he will fall down while roller skating. On March 6th last year, it was 4 pm on Sunday. After finishing his homework, Zhao Cong asked his parents for roller skates, which was criticized by his parents.
"If you don't buy it for me, I will go to Zhengzhou to find my uncle and ask him to buy it for me." Then, Zhao Cong got on his bike and went out, and went to Zhengzhou without saying a word. In the evening, father Zhao Zhiyong and mother Chen Jianli didn't see little Zhao Cong coming home, so they panicked and began to look around.
Zhao Cong's uncle, Zhao Gui, is doing business in Zhengzhou and lives in a residential area in Zhengzhou. Little Zhao Cong is heading north along National Highway 107. When he rode to Xiping County, it was already evening. That night, he spent the night in the street.
Continue northward on the morning of March 7th, and arrive in Xue Dian Town, xinzheng city in the evening. Zhao Cong hasn't eaten for more than a day. He is thirsty and hungry, and he has no money. He had to find a tap to drink a lot of water and sleep in the ditch all night.
On the morning of March 8 10, he rode to the southern suburbs of Zhengzhou. He was so hungry that he sold his bike. With 20 yuan from selling cars, I bought six steamed buns to fill my stomach.
Sleep in Zhengzhou
I agree with the advice of two young people, "go to work, earn money, and then find an uncle."
After eating, he began to look for his uncle. But there are many high-rise buildings. He searched for two days, but he couldn't find the building where his uncle lived in his memory.
On the night of March 9, when he was squatting in the corner of Zhengzhou Railway Station Square, two young people woke him up and asked him what he did. Zhao Cong Jr. told the truth.
After listening, the two told him that sleeping in the square was not the way. There is a chicken farm nearby, which can earn seven or eight hundred yuan a month. It is better to earn some money, eat enough and find talents first.
Zhao Cong Jr. thought about it and thought that their suggestion was right, so he agreed: "I worked in a chicken farm for half a month and made money to continue looking for my uncle." The two young people smiled and said, "You can work as long as you want."
That night, under the arrangement of two young people, Zhao Cong Jr. had a good sleep in a bungalow. The next morning, a Changhe van picked him up and took him to a chicken farm. But after the car slowly drove out of the city, Zhao Cong Jr. became alert: "Didn't you say that the chicken farm is very close?"
"Just ahead." One of the young people said. Little Zhao Cong felt something was wrong and began to shout, "I want to get off." The two young men said savagely, "If you scream again, I will strangle you in the car!" " "
The van continued to the west, passing through Xingyang city and heading southwest.
"Where are you taking me?" Zhao Cong Jr. cried and asked.
"Take you to the brick kiln! It is dishonest to work there, and someone will teach you a lesson. " Two young people said.
Escape from the kiln
Near noon, the car came to a kiln. There is a village nearby called Beizhou Village, which Zhao Cong Jr. later learned. In the kiln, there are more than 40 migrant workers, of whom more than 30 are mentally retarded. When he came to the kiln, a person in charge named Gao warned him that if anyone asks, he was born in 1988 and is 18 years old this year. In the kiln, get up at 4 o'clock, have breakfast until 7 o'clock, continue to work after breakfast, and call it a day after dark.
Once, he was so tired that he sat on the ground and wanted to have a rest. When the supervisor found out, a shovel slammed into his back. After working in this kiln for 50 days, Zhao Cong Jr. was beaten many times. Late at night on April 30th, he escaped while the supervisor was asleep. But after running about two kilometers along the road, I heard the sound of a motorcycle behind me.
"Stop! You can't run away. " Hearing the shouts, Zhao Cong Jr. turned and ran to the field, lying in the deep ditch until dawn, seeing that there was no one around, and continued to run to Shangjie District, so tired that his legs were filled with lead. Seeing a park ahead, he lay on the lawn to have a rest.
"Get up, get up!" Sleeping until noon, four young people kicked him up with their feet. When Zhao Cong Jr. saw that he didn't come well, he lied that he was a local. One of the young people said, "You are wearing only autumn clothes and trousers, and your whole body is so dirty. You can see at a glance that it ran out of the kiln. "
Re-enter the kiln
Subsequently, four people took him to a van next to the park and took Zhao Cong to a kiln in Guangou Village, Xiawo Town.
The treatment of this kiln is even worse. Three meals a day are steamed bread, porridge and white water. When it rains, the kiln workers can't do it, and the diet of migrant workers is halved. Hungry Zhao Cong often drinks raw water to satisfy his hunger.
One day at noon, Zhao Cong Jr. ran out while the supervisor was not looking. But after running for two or three kilometers along the expressway, I was caught up by the supervisor riding a motorcycle. After taking him back to the kiln, the supervisor beat him black and blue with a triangular belt.
On August 2nd, Zhao Cong Jr. was transferred to another kiln in Houma Village, xinzheng city. On June 5th, 65438, kiln supervisor Fan Jinsuo took Xiao Zhao Cong to Tiangang Village, Wansheng Town, Xichuan County, Nanyang City. The village will go to the foot of the mountain 1 km away to draw water and draft. In the Fan family, Zhao Cong Jr. carries a big jar of water every day.
A kind villager saw Zhao Cong in rags and working all day, and felt something was wrong, so he called the police on February 2. That afternoon, Zhao Cong Jr. was rescued by the local police station. At the same time, the police filed a case against Fan Jinsuo and are now conducting a comprehensive investigation.
get rid of this troublesome life
When telling these stories, Zhao Cong Jr. kept crying. He said, at home, I don't know if the home is good, the school is good, the teacher is good, and the classmates are good. Now I understand the kindness of my parents and feel the joy of learning.
When bidding farewell to George W. Zhao Cong, he repeatedly pleaded, "Please tell other children that home and school are the warmest places in the sun. As a student, never leave school or leave home. "
Zhao Cong regrets it now.
