China's inbound and outbound trips surged during the eight-day Golden Week holiday this year, official data showed on Saturday.

According to the latest official figures, holiday travel rose 71.3 percent from last year, and 4.1 percent from pre-pandemic 2019 levels, to 826 million trips. Domestic tourism revenue for the holiday period reached 753 billion yuan, up 129.5 percent from last year and 1.5 percent from 2019 levels.

10月4日18时40分许，一对夫妇到浦东公安分局临港新城派出所求助，称其4岁的女儿在海边游玩时走失。

According to the father, the family went to the beach, and he took the girl, surnamed Huang, to play on the sand, about 20 meters away from the water. Then he went to get his phone, leaving the girl on the beach for a little more than 10 minutes. The girl was missing when he returned. After failing to find the girl, he called the police for help.
据女童父亲称，当天携家人至海边游玩，其带领女儿黄某某到达离海水约20米左右的沙滩玩耍。过程中，其返回取手机，将女童独自留在沙滩上，十余分钟后，其回到沙滩后未找到女儿，因天色昏暗找寻未果，遂向警方求助。

Pudong police teamed up with six search teams with nearly 200 members to comb the area the next day, and checked all the some 20 surveillance cameras around the beach, eliminating the possibility that the girl was taken.
次日，浦东警方会同消防救援总队，组织蓝天、厚天等6支救援队伍近200人开展全方位搜索。同时，组织人员对海滩周围20余个监控探头逐一排查，初步排除了女童被他人带离海滩的可能。

Since the cameras were located far away, the image is not clear. The father identified the girl on the camera on Thursday evening and pointed out the position of him and the girl. Police found the image of the girl among nearly 100 people and followed her, watching her at the original position for about 10 minutes and then walking toward water. She was seen falling in the water and disappearing in the waves.
由于现场探头距离很远，人在图像中只能显示为模糊的白点。直至傍晚，其父最终在监控中指出了自己和女童分开时的准确方位，民警据此在图像中的近百人里发现了疑似女童的身影，其在原地等候约10分钟后，向水边走去，在水边摔倒后消失在海浪中。

目前，浦东警方已协调水文专家分析水流走向，以进一步开展搜寻工作。
