Team searches for girl's parents who vanished 9 years ago

A team of four people from Wenchuan county in Sichuan province arrived in Dongguan, Guangdong province, on Monday in the hope of finding clues which might lead to the discovery of a girl's parents who have been missing for nearly nine years.

Ten years ago, Huang Mengyi, a childless pensioner from Hainan province, moved to Dongguan's Tangxia town where she met a young couple from Sichuan. "I don't know their real names, I just know they are referred to as Ah Niu and Ah Juan," Huang said.

In early May 2008, the young couple wanted to visit their home county of Wenchuan in Sichuan. They asked Huang, then 60, to take care of their newborn daughter, Mao Mao, for a few days.
