Chapter 943 Without a Clue
Huo Sinian: "?"
Huo Sinian looked at Secretary Ye beside him in confusion: "What do you mean?"
"Lin Tan was in a car accident this morning and fell into the river. They still haven't found her," Secretary Ye said seriously.
A hint of surprise flashed in Huo Sinian's eyes.
He poured himself a cup of tea, his long, slender fingers toying with it: "Your wife fell into the river, and instead of looking for her, you come here to demand her return. Isn't that a bit strange?"
"You're the one who took her away," Qin Mo said with certainty.
"President Qin, you're a cultured man," Huo Sinian said calmly. "You should know that defamation and slander can get you arrested and educated. Should I call the police?"
Qin Momo's dark eyes met his gaze.
Huo Siqing took a sip of tea: "If there's nothing else, please leave."
Qin Mo didn't move.
"What, do you need me to treat you?" Huo Sinian still had the same attitude.
"No matter where you hide her, I will find her." Qin Mo said this before leaving.
Looking at his back.
Huo Sinian gently placed the cup on the table.
He didn't say a single word, yet he made people feel dangerous.
"Keep an eye on him," Huo Sinian instructed his secretary. "Call the police if necessary."
Secretary Ye: "Yes."
The power struggles between major wealthy families often do not involve the police.
Once involved, it's easy to become constrained and restricted.
In the following days.
Qin Mo kept a close eye on Huo Sinian's residence and whereabouts.
However, over the course of several days, Huo Sinian showed no abnormalities; his daily routine and behavior were perfectly normal.
On the sixth day.
Ning Jing has arrived.
Seeing him, Qin Mo was surprised, but mostly relieved: "Weren't you working on a case?"
"It's all taken care of," Ning Jing said casually. "Let's go."
Qin Mo: "?"
Ning Jing: "Aren't we going to find Huo Sinian?"
Qin Mo immediately stood up.
"I looked into your situation before I came," Ning Jing told him after getting into the car. "The chances of arresting Huo Sinian with the existing evidence are zero. Do you understand?"
"I know." Qin Mo was prepared.
"All I can do is help you go through the process and secretly find someone to help you investigate." Ning Jing told him the situation directly. "If Lin Tan's matter was really done by him, the only way you can find her is to keep a close eye on Huo Sinian."
Qin Mo remained silent; he knew all of this.
From the moment Lin Tan got into trouble, he realized that everything Huo Sinian had done during this period was just an act.
Show them.
To lay the groundwork for the outcome he desires.
That afternoon.
Ning Jing went to Huo Sinian's house to conduct an investigation through legal procedures.
Just as they expected, Huo Sinian answered all their questions naturally.
"I'd like to ask Captain Ning what his reasons are for investigating me," Huo Sinian said casually.
“You once did something excessive to Lin Tan, and Lin Tan told her agent that if something happened to her one day, it would most likely be because of you,” Ning Jing answered one by one.
“I used to like her a lot, but I gave up those feelings after seeing her become President Qin’s bride,” Huo Sinian said unhurriedly. “Not to mention I have a fiancée now.”
The investigation ultimately yielded no results.
Huo Sinian laid the groundwork very well.
After returning from the wedding, she was depressed and lived with Qiao Shuyun and Huo Cheng. Later, she compromised and went on a blind date, and then got engaged to the Wen family, with whom she had previously intended to form a marriage alliance.
The whole process is similar to that of someone who has just broken up with their boyfriend.
That evening.
Ning Jing and Qin Mo sat together.
"You really suspect it's him?" Ning Jing asked.
"Yes." Qin Mo was now more certain, especially after seeing Huo Sinian's flawless procedure. "They've been searching in Haicheng for a week, but they haven't seen anyone or found the body. It's very unusual."
Ning Jing did not refute.
As soon as the person fell in, a search and rescue operation was launched. No matter how rapid the current was, there should have been some results.
"Has he acted strangely this week?" Ning Jing asked.
"No," Qin Mo said. "He always leaves early and comes home late, with a normal work schedule. I even suspected that he might be hiding someone in his house."
If Lin Tanzhen had really been taken away by his people, how could he possibly remain indifferent and stay here for a week?
If it weren't him, he couldn't think of anyone else.
“No,” Ning Jing said.
Qin Mo looked at him.
Ning Jing stated frankly, "Before coming here, I had a friend check the surveillance footage to make sure Lin Tan hadn't appeared."
Qin Mo frowned, his eyes filled with worry.
"You keep an eye on Huo Sinian as usual, and I'll go back to Jingzhou to check again." Ning Jing patted his shoulder, hoping he wouldn't look so worried. "I'll also have people keep an eye on the surveillance cameras in various places."
With Gu Sheng around, he can be found in almost any area with network coverage.
But there wasn't a single clue.
"Okay," Qin Mo replied.
After Ning Jing left.
Qin Mo continued to stare at Huo Sinian.
The next morning, he received a message from the bodyguard who was watching Huo Sinian.
"President Qin, Huo Sinian has gone to the airport."
"Where is the destination?"
"London, to discuss cooperation."
"Arrange a private plane to London immediately." Qin Mo paused abruptly after saying this, then immediately changed his words, "No, just buy the tickets."
Arranging a chartered plane requires applying for flight routes, which is too slow.
They had just bought their plane tickets when Huo Sinian received the news.
"Boss, Qin Mo has bought a plane ticket to London." Secretary Ye reported the news to Huo Sinian. Basically, anything from Jingzhou was under their control.
"Is the itinerary over there ready?" Huo Sinian asked.
Secretary Ye: "Don't worry, everything has been arranged. Even if they investigate later, it will only be because you were a guest of the Rockefeller family and had a pleasant conversation with their prince. They won't be able to find out anything else about your itinerary."
Huo Sinian: "Okay, let's go."
——
At the same time.
Lin Tan's side.
She had been on the island for a full week, spending three of those days in bed.
She lost consciousness after her car plunged into the water. When she woke up, she was on a ship. She tried to call for help but was given a sedative, so that when she woke up again, she was on this island.
A whole week.
She couldn't get her communication tools.
There was no way to escape.
They even forbade him from stepping out of the manor on the island.
"Did Huo Sinian send you?" Lin Tan looked at the people who had silently trapped her inside and made a bold guess. "Where is he? I want to see him."
She couldn't think of anyone else besides Huo Sinian.
A whole week passed, but he didn't show up, nor did he ever have anyone call Yitongda.
For a moment, she couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
She rushed straight toward the manor gate, but was forcibly stopped by the bodyguards.
"Let me out!"
"The boss has given orders that you are not allowed to step out of here without his permission," the bodyguard replied.
"Either let me out, or I'll die here," Lin Tan threatened, looking at them. "You probably don't want anyone to die either."
