After verification, the truth of the matter is that a Hubei man Gao drove to Xinqing Town, Tengxian County to do business, and saw a 10-year-old girl walking alone on the way, so he took the initiative to stop and ask her destination, and after confirming that the route was the same, she asked if she needed to take a car, and then the little girl took the initiative to get into the car.

Follow-up progress: Gao left after sending the little girl safely to the vicinity of the Xinqing Town Village Committee.

However, in order to attract attention and gain traffic, some netizens spliced the original good deeds of a good person into an Internet rumor of "stealing children". Zhong Moumou, Yu Moumou and other 7 people fabricated videos and pictures at the scene as false information about stealing children, and published them on short video platforms and public accounts.

The content was also accompanied by eye-catching headlines such as "Henan people come to steal children, everyone should pay attention", misleading netizens, causing social panic and disrupting public order.
