The son who was "scared" in the resettlement site for 15 years

At 11 am on March 6th, at the resettlement site in Wulongquan, Jiangxia, 52-year-old Zaoyang man Zhou Xin (pseudonym) saw a son on the other end of the video who had not seen him for 15 years on the other side of the video. Sobbing. Zhou Xin, who has been wandering for many years as a migrant worker, sought out a worker who came to Jiangxia because the epidemic was stuck in Han. He did not expect that such a journey would end his years of wandering and find the goal of life.

After the outbreak, Zhou Xin, who works in his hometown of Zaoyang, did not work. When he was busy in the rental room, he suddenly remembered that he could go to Hubei old man Lao Liu, whom he had met while working in Guangdong.

Old Liu is from Jiangxia, Zhou Xin wants to go there to see if there is any suitable work.

It's been more than 2 years since Zhou Xin met Lao Liu. Fifteen years ago, Zhou Xin left home because of conflicts with his family and helped his workers on the job site. Except that he went to Dongguan, Guangdong, for half a year and worked in Caidian for a few months, he spent most of the rest in Zaoyang, where he worked wherever he worked. In addition, Zhou Xin only knew the old Liu's surname Liu, and did not know his full name. After leaving Guangdong, he only made a phone call with the old Liu. In the phone, the old Liu told Zhou Xin that if he did not work, he could go to Jiangxia to find him.

Thinking that finding old Liu should not be difficult, Zhou Xin saved some money and embarked on the road to find a worker.

After arriving in Jiangxia, Zhou Xin was dumbfounded—although the epidemic situation had been known for a long time, the traffic control was not expected to be so strict. I've bottomed out for food, drink and money along the way, and I don't know where the two clothes I've worn are torn. What's more, the phone is gone.

Not only was the old Liu not found, Zhou Xin himself was trapped in Wuhan. Although he is very strict, Zhou Xin is still going to try it in Zaoyang, because this is the only way he can think of.

"Hello, what happened to you, do you need help?" Zhou Xin, who was determined, was interrupted by someone. The speaker was a policeman at Wulongquan Police Station during patrol.

When Zhou Xin went out, he carried only one bag. When he met the police, his bag contained two pieces of torn clothes, toothpaste, toothbrush and towel. He had no food and no identity certificate. He was taken to the police station by the police. The police understood his encounters, performed disinfection and physical examinations. It was noon to survive a busy meal.

In the Wulongquan police station, Zhou Xin ate vegetarian dishes, which were very fragrant.

After contacting the street staff, after the meal, the police sent Zhou Xin as a foreigner stranded in Han to the settlement. Three meals a day are delivered to the room, the environment is better than your rental room.

At 10 am on March 6, the police came to see him again. Police told Zhou Xin that his son wanted to have a video call with him and asked if he would.

The video was switched on. Zhou Xin watched the young man in the picture froze for a while, covered his mask ... This is his son he hasn't seen in 15 years. Fifteen years ago, because of conflicts with his family, he left home to work and wander, and asked his relatives about his son's situation several times through his relatives.

It turned out that after learning about Zhou Xin's situation, the police immediately checked and verified Zhou Xin's identity and address information, and contacted the local police in Zaoyang, and finally found Zhou Xin's family.

After Zhou Xin ’s son Xiao Zhou (a pseudonym) learned of his father ’s whereabouts, the 26-year-old called the Wulongquan police station from his Shenzhen workplace and asked the police to help him and his father, who had n’t seen him in years, see him in the video surface.

"My son asked me to go home and said he would support me!" Recalling the video clip, Zhou Xin trembled. This 15-year-old video call lasted about 20 minutes. In the video, Xiao Zhou left his father with his contact information and address.
