The car drove on the road, moonlight spilling onto it.
"Sister Xi, are you alright?"
The driver, catching a glimpse of Qiu Xi's movements as she looked at her arm, asked worriedly, "Should I put some medicine on it? Your arm is all bruised."
"It's fine. I really didn't know this woman could be so fierce when she went mad."
Not only did she smash a vase at her without a word, but she even grabbed her foot and bit down when she was being kicked. She was truly ruthless.
If it weren't for all this, they might have even become friends.
Heh, friends.
What was she thinking?
Qiu Xi let out a cold laugh, shaking off the inappropriate thoughts. "What's the situation with Boss Ran's side now?"
"They've been looking for you everywhere, but Sister Xi, don't worry, I haven't given away your whereabouts." The driver glanced in the rearview mirror at the two people slumped together in the back.
One big, one small, their heads hanging, swaying with the car.
"Did you check them?"
"Yes, we checked. There were trackers on both the phone and the Barbie doll."
Qiu Xi closed her eyes, feeling the evening breeze through the window. "Where did you throw them?"
"One was thrown into someone else's car, and the other was thrown into a water pool."
"Wake me when we arrive."
"Don't worry, Sister Xi. I'll wake you when we get to the usual spot."
...
"Find her, find her!" Ran Lian trembled with anger. "What kind of work are you people doing? A whole child disappears, and not one of you noticed. You, you're trying to anger me to death, aren't you?"
"Mom, don't be angry. It's not good for your health. Maybe Miaomiao took An'an away, right?" Xie Wanqing said understandingly.
"Yes, why don't we call Miaomiao?" Hong Lu also suggested.
As soon as she spoke, everyone turned their gaze to Wen Zhiyan.
"I always knew your Wen Corporation wasn't much, but now it seems seeing is indeed believing," Fang Zhihuan said with a light laugh. "The surveillance clearly shows that Fang Miaomiao and Wen Yan'an never left Yu Yuan. What are you talking about, Fang Miaomiao secretly taking Wen Yan'an away."
Are they not using their brains?
"What do you mean?"
"I mean Fang Miaomiao isn't that clever." Fang Zhihuan scanned the room, finally settling his gaze on Hong Lu. "Have you all forgotten about the missing children in City A, especially those from wealthy families?"
The crowd buzzed.
"That's right. My uncle's family just had a child go missing recently. We were frantic. Fortunately, the child was found, but the culprit has still not been apprehended."
"Could it be that Ran Lian has something to do with the culprit?"
"You, you're talking nonsense!" Ran Lian's eyes widened as she retorted, "That's my grandson, my eldest son's child. My eldest son is a police officer. How could I possibly collude with those people?"
Just then.
A large group of police officers entered.
"Police."
Hong Lu and Xie Wanqing exchanged glances. As they tried to retreat into the crowd, they tripped over something.
Hong Lu turned to see Wen Zhiyan looking at her with cold eyes from within the crowd.
"We received a report that there are adults and children missing here. We request everyone's cooperation with the investigation."
Wen Zhijia didn't care who was missing. Heartbroken, he rushed to Hong Lu's side and helped her up. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, you don't need to worry." As Hong Lu said this, she cautiously glanced at Wen Zhiyan.
Wen Zhiyan met her gaze without fear.
Hong Lu immediately buried her head in Wen Zhijia's arms.
"Fourth Brother, why are you looking at Hong Lu like that?" httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Hello, Third Brother."
Wen Zhijia sneered, "I'm not worthy of being called your Third Brother."
The moment he thought about Wen Zhiyan siding with outsiders and colluding with other shareholders to sell so many shares to Fang Zhihuan, any affection he had for his fourth brother vanished completely.
"Officer, we didn't call the police."
Ran Lian watched the guests leave after being investigated, her intestines twisting with regret. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have agreed to Xie Wanqing's suggestion to host a banquet. Now, she had brought trouble upon herself.
She was sure that after these people left, everyone in their social circle would know that her grandson was missing.
"We don't file false reports, thank you," Xu Lin said politely. "Please do not obstruct our work, elder."
Ran Lian was about to say more, but Xie Wanqing grabbed her hand and shook her head. "Mother, let's just sit aside and wait."
As she said this, Xie Wanqing cast a meaningful glance at Hong Lu, who was in Wen Zhijia's arms. A hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
Xu Lin led the police on a thorough search of Yu Yuan.
Fang Zhihuan took the opportunity to walk to Wen Zhiyan's side. "We didn't call the police, so why did they call? And where is An'an?"
Didn't they say An'an wasn't there? How could An'an also be missing?
"A waiter called the police."
"A waiter?"
Wen Zhiyan's fingers twitched, and he nodded. "Yes."
An'an was very smart. He probably guessed something, deliberately let him and Miaomiao relax their guard, then slipped away from Da Chen and followed.
"Captain, there's something in the cloakroom."
Xu Lin strode upstairs upon hearing this.
Fang Zhihuan shrugged and pushed Wen Zhiyan's wheelchair into the elevator.
The cloakroom was in disarray, with vase fragments scattered all over the floor, some even showing dried bloodstains.
When Wen Zhiyan and the others reached the doorway, Xu Lin and his team had already finished their inspection. "These items will be sent to the forensic department."
"All of you present are suspects. We have the right to restrict your departure from the country."
By the time everything was finished, it was already late at night.
Wen Zhiyan sat in the police station, feeling weak.
"We've determined through blood tests that the bloodstain belongs to Fang Miaomiao. As for the tracker, it's still moving, and we can't determine its destination yet, so we can't follow it," Xu Lin said, his face filled with shame.
"So, Miaomiao is injured?"
"Yes."
The thought of his Miaomiao being injured made Wen Zhiyan unable to bear it, wishing he could go find her immediately.
Xin Xuanlai, arriving late, cursed inwardly "Not good" and rushed forward, pressing Wen Zhiyan back into his wheelchair. "Calm down, Master Wen, we need to be calm. Madam is fine."
Well, she was injured.
"Miaomiao is bleeding."
How could he stand this?
"Sir, sir, Madam is fine. We must believe in Madam." Xin Xuanlai tightly hugged Wen Zhiyan, fearing he would impulsively stand up from his wheelchair. "I brought something, it's about Madam."
"Sir, we placed a small camera on Madam, didn't you forget? I'll get it now," Xin Xuanlai said quickly. "Sir, Madam dares to put her life on the line because she trusts the police and trusts you. You can't let Madam down."
Hearing this, Wen Zhiyan finally calmed down. "The item."
Xin Xuanlai immediately handed a USB drive to Wen Zhiyan.
Seeing that he had calmed down, and after the others watched the video and analyzed the situation, Xin Xuanlai breathed a sigh of relief.
