【Chapter 420 Missing】
Wen Qingbai couldn't contact Guan Xiaoxiao, and the uneasiness in his heart spread like a vine, and he was shrouded in anxiety.
With no other options, he hurried to Gubei No. 1, hoping to find Lin Yin to inquire about Guan Xiaoxiao's news.
He knocked on the door several times, but after a while the door was never opened.
Lin Yin was a little surprised, "Qingbai, why are you here?"
Wen Qingbai spoke quickly: "Sister-in-law, I have been unable to contact Xiaoxiao. Do you have any news about her? I am really worried."
Seeing him so flustered, Lin Yin quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll call and ask."
She took out her cell phone and dialed Guan Xiaoxiao's number.
But all that came from the phone was a cold mechanical prompt tone, informing me that the call could not be connected.
Lin Yin frowned and called Guan's mother again.
"Auntie, I'm Lin Yin. Do you know what Xiaoxiao is doing recently? Is she still traveling abroad? I can't contact her and I'm a little worried."
Guan's mother said on the other end of the phone: "Xiaoxiao sent a message saying she was going to travel abroad. This child has not contacted us since she left. She often does this when she travels. Nothing should happen to her."
Having said that, there was still a hint of worry in Guan's mother's tone.
After hearing this, Lin Yin's doubts grew even stronger. "Auntie, but I can't get through to her right now. I'm a little worried that something might have happened."
"You make me a little worried. I'll give her a call first."
A moment later, Guan's mother called back, her voice full of panic: "Xiaoyin, I can't get through to Xiaoxiao either. What should I do? She never acts like this. Even when she's traveling and doesn't like to send messages home, she's never been unable to get through on the phone."
Lin Yin's heart suddenly lifted up, "Auntie, don't panic, let's contact our mutual friends first, and I'll call you back later."
The phone was on speakerphone so everyone could hear it.
Wen Qingbai's face turned pale and he clenched his fists, "Xiaoxiao must have been in trouble!"
Lin Yin's heart was also in turmoil, and she suggested: "Let's contact other friends first to see if there is any news. If not, we need to call the police immediately."
"Okay, I'll contact you right away."
In the past, Guan Xiaoxiao liked to bring Wen Qingbai into contact with her circle of friends, and Wen Qingbai saved the contact information of many of her friends.
He took out his cell phone and frantically contacted Guan Xiaoxiao's other friends, calling them one after another.
"Hey, Brother Hua, do you know what Xiaoxiao is doing recently?"
"I don't know. We haven't been in touch recently."
Wen Qingbai hit other people again.
But the answers I got were either they had no idea or they hadn't been in touch recently.
His heart was getting more and more panicked, and a thin layer of sweat oozed out of his forehead.
Wen Qingbai dialed the last number with trembling fingers.
"Hey, Xiaoyun, do you know where Xiaoxiao went? I can't contact her."
Xiaoyun said: "Since we broke up at the White Horse Club last time, I haven't contacted Xiaoxiao recently. I sent her a message, but she didn't reply to me."
Wen Qingbai caught the key words, "White Horse Club? When did it happen?"
Xiaoyun said: "Hmm... I can't quite remember, it should be a week ago."
"Okay, thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Qingbai looked at Lin Yin and said anxiously: "The last time you called Xiaoxiao, she didn't answer. I guess something happened at that time!"
Lin Yin frowned tightly, trying to recall the scene at that time. "I did feel something was a little strange that day when I called, but I never thought something like this would happen. The White Horse Club is full of good and bad people. Did she offend someone there?"
Huo Jingze calmly analyzed: "Don't guess, let's go to the White Horse Club now, maybe we can find some clues."
The three of them immediately set off for the White Horse Club.
Along the way, Wen Qingbai was extremely anxious and kept urging the driver to drive faster, rubbing his hands nervously on his knees.
Lin Yin comforted him softly, even though she herself was filled with worry.
Arriving at the White Horse Club, Wen Qingbai rushed in first, found the manager and asked anxiously, "My fiancée Guan Xiaoxiao appeared here a week ago and then disappeared. You must give me an explanation!"
These three people are famous figures in the circle, so the manager naturally knows them.
Upon learning that Guan Xiaoxiao's disappearance might be related to the club, the manager's face instantly became solemn, and he hurriedly said, "Mr. Wen, don't worry. Miss Guan did come to our club a week ago. If it is really related to the club, we will definitely cooperate with the investigation."
"Are you sure Miss Guan had an accident inside our club?"
"We'll know if we check the surveillance." Wen Qingbai was anxious.
The manager said with embarrassment: "Mr. Wen, our club attaches great importance to the privacy of our guests and does not have any surveillance."
Huo Jingze thought for a moment and said, "Is there any surveillance in the garage?"
On the way here, they carefully asked Xiaoyun about the details of that day. Guan Xiaoxiao drove to the club.
After entering the club, Guan Xiaoxiao left the box, then sent a message to Xiaoyun and the others saying that she was leaving first, and then there was no more news.
The manager lowered his head. “There is no surveillance in the garage either.”
Wen Qingbai was so angry that his face turned blue. He grabbed the manager by the collar and said, "You..."
"Qingbai, calm down." Lin Yin said, "Let's go to the garage first."
Wen Qingbai suppressed his anger, slowly loosened the manager's collar, and followed Lin Yin and Huo Jingze to the garage.
There was a faint smell of gasoline in the garage, and dim lights were swaying in the silence. Luxury cars were parked neatly, but Guan Xiaoxiao's car was the only one missing.
Lin Yin suddenly stepped on something.
She moved her feet, looked down, and found that it was a pair of exquisite earrings, the style that Guan Xiaoxiao often wore.
Lin Yin picked up the earring and said with a trembling voice: "Look, this is Xiaoxiao's earring. She must have encountered something here."
Wen Qingbai rushed over, snatched the earrings and examined them carefully.
"It is indeed Xiaoxiao's earring. Something must have happened to her!" Wen Qingbai clutched the earring tightly, his lips trembling.
"Xiaoxiao is missing. Let's call the police first. We can't delay any longer." Huo Jingze said in a deep voice.
On the way to the police station, Lin Yin informed the Guan family. When the Guan family learned that Guan Xiaoxiao was really missing, they were extremely anxious. Guan's father and mother fainted and were admitted to the hospital. The Guan family was in chaos.
After knowing this, Lin Yin asked Guan’s eldest brother to take care of Guan’s father and mother first, and they would follow up with the police station.
But there was no surveillance, and the police found no clues after several days of investigation.
Lin Yin has been worried about Guan Xiaoxiao's safety these days and has been tossing and turning and unable to sleep.
"Jingze, could Xiaoxiao have already..." Lin Yin's face was filled with worry, her voice choked with sobs, and she didn't dare to continue her words halfway through.
Huo Jingze held her in his arms and comforted her, "No, as long as there is no body, it means she is still alive."
Lin Yin felt upset. "Who would harm Xiaoxiao? If it was kidnapping or extortion, no one would ask the Guan family for money. Emotional disputes are unlikely. Xiaoxiao has only dated Wen Qingbai, who has always been a clean person. Even when she went to the club, she was just drinking to kill time."
"It's not blackmail, it's not an emotional dispute..."
Huo Jingze was thinking.
After a while, he seemed to have thought of something and took out his cell phone to call He Kai.
"Check Liu Meilan's records of entering and leaving the White Horse Club in the past half month and give me the results tomorrow morning.
