Jian Yu and An Ke were both fast asleep; despite the numerous news notifications on their phones, they didn't see a single one.
Lin Beichen, who was working late into the night writing the plot, casually opened his phone while getting a drink of water, and what he saw left him completely stunned.
Jian Yu has disappeared?
Ignoring the late hour, Lin Beichen contacted George directly.
After receiving a positive answer, Lin Beichen immediately went online and forwarded the missing person notice.
Lin Beichen's repost attracted the attention of his peers.
Just as someone was about to message him, he had already widely shared the message in many groups, asking everyone to forward it so that more people could see it and help provide clues.
“I saw the local news yesterday, but it disappeared quickly, and I didn’t pay attention to it at the time. I didn’t know it was someone you knew.”
Lin Beichen immediately thought that Huo Qizhen was suppressing the news. Huo Qizhen must have found many professionals to search and rescue, so there was no need for him to be watched by people on the Internet.
Now that they've proactively issued missing person notices, it's clear they haven't found anything.
"Please forward this to other groups as well."
Jian Yu's photo was on the missing person notice. A girl with such high looks was already a hot topic, and now that it was confirmed that she had gone missing accidentally, it quickly attracted widespread attention.
Many of Jianyu's classmates also saw the news.
Even Teacher Huang was woken up by a phone call from a familiar student.
The missing person notice explained the reason for Jian Yu's disappearance, and a photo of the driver who caused the accident was also posted, soliciting clues from netizens.
[A reward of 1 million yuan will be given to anyone who can provide useful information about people who had contact with the driver at the hospital on the day of the accident.]
Wealth can be very tempting.
Many netizens who saw the news began asking their relatives and friends who had been to the same hospital that day for information.
Believe it or not, this method was actually effective; someone provided Huo Qizhen with a clue as early as eight in the morning.
Based on the man's description, they found him—the cleaning staff member responsible for that floor.
To avoid alerting the suspect, Huo Qizhen's people did not approach the cleaning lady directly, as they had approached the driver's family.
Instead, they began to secretly investigate his previous movements.
Half an hour later, the person who provided the tip received a million-dollar transfer.
The Yan family also received the news at the breakfast table.
Just as Yan Zhuo was about to contact Yan Shi, Chairman Yan stopped him, saying, "You are not allowed to contact Yan Shi."
Yan Zhuo was taken aback. "Why?"
“Your brother is stubborn. If he comes back now, he will definitely be greatly affected. He might even help to catch the person behind the scenes. Even the Huo Group couldn’t protect Jian Yu. What if your brother, this hothead, gets carried away and fights with them again? When he comes back in a few years, he should be more mature. This matter will be over by then, and we won’t have to worry about his safety.”
Yan Zhuo silently put away her phone and finished her breakfast in a shorter time than usual.
"I'm leaving now."
Chairman Yan assumed he was going to work at the hospital, so he didn't say anything.
Only Dean Bai glanced at him a few more times.
As soon as Yan Zhuo left home, she called Huo Tingzhen, "Jian Yu, she..."
"Still searching."
"The person has been missing for more than 36 hours. Is the chance of finding them... very low?"
Both sides remained silent on the phone.
Yan Zhuo said, "Just let me know if there's anything I can help you with."
Huo Tingzhen: "Not for now, there's nothing I can do to help."
Yan Zhuo said, "I have a friend who is a criminal police officer, and I asked him for help."
Huo Tingzhen: "No need to look anymore. My brother has already reported it to the police, and the criminal investigation department is already handling it."
The driver's mother was still asleep when she received a phone call from her granddaughter.
"Grandma, the police are here. They found a large sum of money under Mom and Dad's bed. They said..."
The driver's mother jolted awake, realizing that the money had been taken.
"say what?"
"They said it was money my dad took from people who were framed."
"ah?"
The driver's wife had just opened her eyes when the ward door was pushed open, and two people in uniform walked in, flashing their work badges. "Are you Li Liang's family members?"
The two were very nervous. "Yes."
"We have something to ask you. Are you aware that Li Liang took money to harm people?"
Both of them shook their heads simultaneously, "We haven't heard him mention it."
"What do you say about the one million in cash found in your home?"
The two of them said in unison again, "We don't know."
"You really don't know?"
The two nodded.
After they left, the driver's mother picked up her phone, but the caller hadn't hung up.
"grandmother?"
What's the deal with that bundle of money?
"There's a cardboard box under the bed, and inside that's a snakeskin bag. The money is inside."
The two men felt a little dizzy. "Did you see anyone go in during the night?"
"No!"
"Okay, I understand. You don't need to come today. Make sure to lock all the doors and windows tonight, and don't open the door for anyone."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law realized once again that the other party was no ordinary person.
What terrible trouble did Li Liang get into for his family?
Looking at her leg, which was in a heavy cast, the driver's wife couldn't help but worry, "What if they still try to harm us? They can sneak money into our home without anyone noticing; wouldn't it be easy for them to hurt us?"
He grabbed his daughter-in-law and said, "Don't worry too much. You're alright after the car accident, so you probably won't do it again."
They kept their promise and did not reveal the person's identity.
The other party should keep their promise!
"Mom, do you think we should tell the police about the cause of my car accident?"
"don't want!"
The daughter-in-law didn't know this because she hadn't experienced it herself; she was someone who was pushed into the water and almost drowned by the other party.
“If we tell anyone, our two children at home will be in danger. Besides, if we tell the police the cause of the accident, we won’t be able to escape the charge of covering up the accident.”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
They were so scared they were completely bewildered. "I'm not saying anything more."
An Ke hadn't had a good night's sleep in days, but now that she was sleeping next to Jian Yu, she felt very safe and secure.
The steady snoring seemed to make up for all the sleep I had missed during this time.
Jian Yu was awakened by thirst.
The water in Anke's room was cold, so Jianyu had to boil a new pot of water.
While waiting, Jian Yu took her temperature again.
Thirty-seven and a half degrees!
Many have been refunded!
You need to take some more medicine in a little while.
Jian Yu took An Ke's phone, and her eyes were immediately drawn to news about her pushed by various websites.
Was the driver who caused the accident terminally ill?
Jian Yu flipped through the files for a while and found the cleaning uncle's information.
I poured myself a cup of hot water, mixed it with cold water, and took the medicine.
The cleaning man is really good at keeping his temper in check. Despite the uproar on the internet, he is completely unaffected and can still spin a top in the park.
Spinning a top?
Jian Yu went back to check the time and found it was already six o'clock in the morning.
She slept for more than a day and a night.
Jian Yu turned to look at An Ke, who was sleeping soundly. Judging from the room's furnishings, she had probably been asleep for about the same time as An Ke.
Although her fever had subsided considerably, she still felt very uncomfortable. Not wanting to go through any more trouble, Jian Yu started by connecting to the person in charge's phone.
There were two people in charge, so Jian Yu naturally didn't dare to do much on the police side, and therefore she was connected to Huo Qizhen's people.
As soon as Jian Yu connected, he discovered that the person had received a surveillance video a minute earlier, showing a man in black brushing past a cleaning man.
Jian Yu recognized the man in black, but couldn't quite place where he had seen him before.
Then a questioning voice came from the phone: "Is it related to the old lady? He used to be her bodyguard."
