The enemies of my parents kidnapped me, live-streaming the severing of my fingers, just to force them to show themselves.
All at once, the entire internet was searching for my parents.
But they didn't know, the police chief in the video call was actually my biological father.
At that time, he was on a Hawaii beach, lighting grand fireworks for a pretender.
On their barbecue table, they were playing the live stream of me having my fingers cut off.
Later, I survived to be rescued, reaching out with my severed finger, wanting to touch my parents.
They recoiled in disgust, not turning back as they took the pretender to eat Western cuisine.
But they didn't know, within my severed finger, I held things enough to make them regret deeply.

I was kidnapped by my parents' enemies, the kidnappers arrogantly started a live stream to the whole network.
12 hours passed, my fingers were cut down to just one.
The comments section scrolled quickly:
[I can't stand it anymore, the kid's screams are too miserable!]
[They said they would release the kid once the parents call, where are the parents?]
[Is this child really theirs?]
The kidnappers also lost their patience, finally tearing the tape off my mouth.
I was about to explain about my parents being special police, often on special missions, and that they couldn't help it.
Just then, my phone received photos of the pretender's vacation sent by him.
"Brother, we landed in Hawaii with mom and dad~"
"Mom and dad said you'd ruin the fun if you were here, so they're celebrating my birthday alone with me."
In the photos, my parents hugged Li Yuzhe on either side, their eyes filled with doting affection.
Behind them, there was my aunt, uncle, cousin sister, cousin brother, and my white-haired grandma, a family full of joy.
So while I was kidnapped and the live stream was broadcasted, not a single family member noticed.
The kidnapper glanced at me suspiciously, telling me to call them.
Mom, upon hearing it was me, instantly responded impatiently: "I knew you'd come and ruin the fun!"
"Ever since we brought you back from the countryside, there's not been a day of peace at home, Yuzhe has never had a proper birthday."
"This time, no matter what you say, we won't sacrifice Yuzhe's happiness for you."
Despite the sour pain in my heart, I hurriedly spoke: "Mom, I've been kidnapped..."
Mom almost disgustedly interrupted me: "Li Xiaowei! You're such an actor!"
"When you're dead, then I'll come collect your corpse!"
Mom hung up the phone without hesitation.
Meanwhile, I received a message from Li Yuzhe:
"Brother, mom and dad really hate you, mom hung up on you, then dad blocked you, and also told me not to talk to you."
…
My heart felt as though it was being tightly squeezed, hurting more than my fingers.
In a daze, I felt my consciousness sinking deeper...
"Splash—"
The kidnapper poured a basin of cold water over my head.
"Trying to faint? No way! If your parents don't call, you'll continuously be tortured."
"You have one finger left. If fingers are gone, there are toes. If toes are gone, we'll cut off your ear!"
The comment section immediately flooded with curses, cursing the kidnappers to be heartless, but more cursed the parents for being cold-blooded.
Some even cursed the special police:
[Are the special police useless? 12 hours and they still can't find the kidnappers' location?]
[Forget about finding the kidnappers, find these lousy parents first!]
[Wretched kidnappers! Pick on the adults if you have guts, what's the point of picking on a child?]
No matter how anxious the online comments were, the kidnappers still raised the knife, and my last little finger was severed.
It hurt, it really hurt.
It hurt so much I wished to die.
My piercing cries made those in front of their screens cover their ears.
The scrolling comments halted for a moment.
Then, a bright and enlarged comment caught the kidnapper's attention:
[Connect with me! I'm Special Police Captain Li Shaojie!]
The name "Li Shaojie" made my muddled brain clear for a moment.
It's dad!
Dad found me, he's coming to save me!
