A stolen boy, 23 years later, tried to use a service whose goal was to search for lost families / family members. On the site, our hero laid out an approximate scheme of the place that he remembered. One of the members of the community of this site noticed a record of the abduction with a map, and our hero learned that in the city of Guangan there is a family that lost a son just 23 years ago.

Lao Gong, that is the name of the hero, used Google Maps to search for his lost home in Guangan. And I found, after finding those two bridges. Now the young man has already met with his family, however, it is not yet clear what he will do next - whether he will live on his own where he lived before, or reunite with his family.

Well, the kidnappers, the family with which he lived until now, are likely to be punished.
