Chapter 277: Friend Missing

"At first, I thought my best friend was kidnapped or sold."

Tang Le's eyes were red. "She went missing in Country T. That night, she and her husband passed by a clothing store, and my best friend saw a piece of clothing she liked."

"While she was trying on clothes in the fitting room, her husband went out to buy a bottle of water."

"When he came back, my best friend was gone."

"At that time, the store clerks insisted that they had never seen my best friend and that they had never been to the store."

After Tang Le finished speaking, he wiped away his tears.

Eight months have passed since her best friend disappeared. During these eight months, she felt like every day was a year, and she was looking forward to good news every day.

But the longer you wait, the more disappointment you'll experience.

By now, the dam is almost bursting.

She showed Huo Ning photos of her best friend and also gave her several tiaras and bridal robes as a reward.

"Master Huo, this is a photo of my best friend. Can you please calculate if she is still alive? If she is still alive, please tell me if she is okay now."

Her appearance made countless netizens sigh.

[Don't ask me. If she went missing in the country, she would probably still be alive, but she might have been sold to a mountain village to give birth to a son for an 80-year-old man. But she is overseas now, so it's hard to say.]

[Do you know the real-life Barbie doll? In the underground showroom of Country T, there is a girl with broken limbs, wearing gorgeous clothes and being sold as a commodity.]

[Fuck, it’s that freak show, right?]

[Yes, yes, yes, most of the girls who disappeared inexplicably abroad were sold to this kind of black market and became undignified commodities for the viewing of those rich people. ]

[I heard that some people were sold to the dark web, and then tortured like animals every day. The torture process was live-broadcasted on the dark web. I heard that the bloodier the scene and the more miserable the screams, the more money the rich businessmen rewarded them.]

[This is so scary. Being a woman is so dangerous. Fortunately, I am a man. ]

Seeing this kind of self-righteous remarks, some netizens immediately rolled their eyes.

【】Do you think you can get away with it because you are a man? Men will have one of their kidneys cut off first. 】

[Then you were sent to a black factory to do hard labor. Don't think that you were forced to work day and night. You were forced to work day and night as a servant of the rich businessmen for them to humiliate and amuse themselves.]

[You must catch their saliva with your mouth, otherwise you will be beaten severely.]

This is not the end.

If you are lucky enough to survive here, you will be sent to a zoo to fight with tigers and lions.

If you win, you can go to the next arena alive.

But if I lose——

You only have one life, what can you do if you lose?

They can only blame themselves for their poor performance, as it is their inferior skills that have led them to become food for tigers and lions.

When life is trampled upon and the most basic human rights are not respected, neither men nor women can be considered human beings.

In a dark place where everyone is being abused, no one can compare their own difficulties.

Tang Le looked at the barrage and was trembling with fear.

She no longer cared about numbing herself with alcohol and just knelt down to Huo Ning.

"Master Huo, my best friend——"

Huo Ning sighed, with a hint of sadness in her eyes, and told him the bad news.

"The abuse your best friend suffered was slightly less severe than they said."

"But--"

She couldn't bear it.

What comes next will be extremely cruel.

I don’t know if Tang Le can bear it.

Huo Ning closed his eyes.

"But your best friend is dead now. No, strictly speaking, she is not dead."

"But she looks like a ghost now. If you saw her, you would be shocked."

Tang Le's body stiffened.

The wind from the air conditioner blew over, making her feel cold all over.

Her limbs seemed to be frozen stiff at this moment, and even her blood had coagulated.

Tang Le closed his eyes tightly.

She hated herself so much, hated herself for not knowing Huo Ning until today. If it had been earlier, maybe she could have saved her best friend.

"There is one more thing I want to ask you."

Tang Le paused and looked straight at Huo Ning, "Please tell me, is my best friend's accident related to her husband?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the barrage immediately exploded.

[What the hell? Another underwater starry sky? Or murdering his wife to cheat on his insurance?]

[Why do you suspect your best friend's husband when something happens to your best friend? 】

[To be honest, best friends nowadays are pretty scary. Not only do they often encourage you to break up, but they also often label you a murderer. I am simply overwhelmed.]

[You said it yourself, your best friend went missing in Country T while pregnant. How could he be the one who got his wife lost when he was an ordinary Chinese man who went to a place he was not familiar with? Wouldn't it be better for him to handle the matter in China if he is so capable?]

Netizens only felt that Tang Le's words were deeply outrageous.

In the end, most netizens still believed Tang Le’s best friend’s husband.

After all, it is too outrageous that a Chinese man wants to go to Country T to kill his wife and hide it from the police of Country T without anyone noticing.

Who would believe it?

Tang Le frowned and his face gradually darkened.

She took a step back and explained to netizens: "In the beginning, I didn't actually doubt him."

She lied.

In fact, when she first learned about her best friend's accident, she felt that it was closely related to her best friend's husband.

A voice in her heart told her that it must have been done by that man.

But she had no evidence.

There was no surveillance in the store where the incident occurred. The police in Country T also investigated and the best friend’s husband had sufficient proof of his alibi.

[Then why did you suddenly suspect that this matter had something to do with him? ]

[How long has your best friend been with her husband? How did they know each other?]

[You suddenly suspect him. Could it be that before the incident, he bought a huge amount of insurance for your best friend? ]

Tang Le shook his head.

Things are not the same as what netizens guessed.

She took a deep breath, gradually calmed herself down, and said word by word: "He and my best friend have a good relationship."

"From the time they met online to meeting in person, falling in love, getting married and getting pregnant, everything went very smoothly."

"My best friend once said that there has never been anyone who made her feel that she was completely compatible with him in terms of soul and values."

After being single for so many years, his best friend accidentally found her own happiness. Tang Le saw it at the time and was happy for her.

Because the world is so big, it is really not easy to meet someone who is on the same wavelength as you.

But in this world, there is probably no such thing as a 100% compatible soul mate.

All coincidences are actually long-planned.

Tang Le's voice choked up, "The reason why I doubt him is because——"
