Chapter 603 You Go Out First
"Send someone to keep an eye on her 24 hours a day."
There was no warmth in his voice, and every word was chilled by ice.
"Report to me immediately if she makes any unusual movements."
"Yes, Mr. Chi!" The assistant turned around and tried to slip away as if he had been pardoned.
"etc."
Chi Wenyan called him, a calculating and cold look flashing in his dark eyes. A sarcastic arc curved up the corner of his lips.
"You go out first."
"Understood!" The assistant understood and immediately stepped out.
The office fell into dead silence.
Chi Wenyan slowly leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, but Ji Wan's real smiling face appeared in his mind.
Gentle, quiet, with a hint of playfulness.
Evening...
There was a sharp pain in his heart.
He took out his cell phone and dialed the number he knew by heart.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.
"Hello?"
Ji Wan's voice was hoarse and lazy, as if he had just woken up. It was like a small brush, gently scratching his heart.
Chi Wenyan's tense nerves relaxed instantly, and his voice became softer.
"Wanwan, it's me."
"Did it wake you?"
He pressed the intercom.
"Come in."
The assistant, who had just escaped death, felt his legs weaken and he almost fell to the ground when he heard the cold voice. He gritted his teeth and pushed open the heavy door again.
"Chi... Mr. Chi?"
Chi Wenyan didn't look at him, but stared sharply at the investigation report on Su Jiujiu on the table.
"Re-investigate the matter of my wife's disappearance a few days ago."
The assistant was stunned and puzzled: "Boss Chi, that matter has already happened..."
"I want you to check again!" Chi Wenyan suddenly raised his eyes, his gaze like a knife, making his assistant tremble with fear. "I want details! Where did she go, who did she meet in the 24 hours before and after she disappeared? Pull up the surveillance footage of every route for me, frame by frame!"
His voice was not loud, but it carried a thunderous pressure.
"I suspect her disappearance was not an accident at all."
The assistant's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.
There is a huge conspiracy behind this!
"Investigate!" Chi Wenyan slammed his finger on the table, his tone firm, "Especially the last person she saw before she disappeared, Sun Zhou! Investigate him thoroughly!"
"Not only do I want to find out what he's doing now, I also want all the information about his ancestors for three generations! Any stains, any handles, dig them all up for me!"
There was an undisguised murderous intent in Chi Wenyan's eyes.
He was just wary of Sun Zhou before, but now, this name was linked to Wanwan's disappearance, and it touched his absolute weak spot!
"Yes! I'll do it right away!" The assistant didn't dare to delay for a moment and quickly retreated after receiving the order.
Chi Wenyan was the only one left in the office.
He slowly stood up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the city below.
Su Jiujiu, Zhao Xiyue, and now there is one more Sun Zhou.
A web targeting him and Wanwan had already been woven in secret.
Not only do they want Su Jiujiu to replace her, but before that, they must want the real Wanwan to completely disappear from this world!
Thinking of this possibility, the air pressure around Chi Wenyan dropped to an alarmingly low level, and a storm gathered in his eyes, brewing a madness that would destroy everything.
"Dare to touch my people..."
He spoke each word with an intensity that was as cold as the ice of hell.
"I will make you pay for your blood debt with blood!"
The assistant's efficiency is unparalleled.
After Chi Wenyan gave the order, the entire team started running at high speed like a machine wound up with a full spring.
Countless surveillance videos, call records, and consumption receipts piled up on his desk like snowflakes.
Three days and three nights.
The assistant's eyes were bloodshot and he survived by drinking cup after cup of strong coffee.
He personally brought people to review the surveillance footage before and after Ji Wan's disappearance frame by frame.
"stop!"
The assistant pointed to a blurry corner of the screen, his voice hoarse.
"Zoom in here!"
The image was quickly processed by technicians and became clear.
That was a blind spot for surveillance at the dock, but an old camera on a nearby fishing boat happened to capture a little afterimage.
A man dragged an unconscious woman out of a black car!
Although I couldn't see her face clearly, the woman's figure and the beige windbreaker...
The assistant's pupils suddenly contracted!
Yes, madam!
"Check this ship! Immediately!" The assistant's voice was trembling.
Once the clue is found, the next thing will follow naturally.
They followed the fishing boat's sea records and soon locked onto a remote private island.
There is only one small private hospital on that island.
"Send someone over there. Don't alert the enemy. Use any means necessary to find out all the patient information in the hospital!"
The assistant's palms were sweaty as he gave orders.
He had a premonition that the truth was right before his eyes!
Half a day later, the person sent out brought back the news.
The voice on the other end of the phone changed its tone with excitement.
"Boss! We found it! We found it!"
The assistant's heart skipped a beat, almost jumping out of his throat.
"Is that you, Madam?!" He gripped the phone tightly, his knuckles turning white.
"Face! That face is definitely the wife's! I have looked at the photo countless times, there is no mistake!" The subordinate swore.
"How is she now?"
"Not in good condition. The nurse said he was soaking wet when he was brought in. He had a high fever and severe pneumonia. He's been in a coma in the intensive care unit ever since."
The assistant's breath hitched.
really!
My wife’s disappearance was not an accident at all, it was murder!
He suppressed the turmoil in his heart and tried to keep his voice steady.
"What is the patient's registered name?"
This is the final confirmation step. As long as the name matches, he can immediately report this great news to President Chi!
However, there was silence on the other end of the phone.
"Speak!" the assistant urged sternly.
"Boss..." The subordinate's voice became hesitant and confused, "Here's the problem... I hacked into their system and bribed the nurse, but the name registered on the patient's file..."
"Not Ji Wan."
The assistant's mind buzzed.
"Not her? Then why do you say you found her!" he roared, feeling like he had been fooled.
"But that face! It's really the wife's face!" The subordinate was almost crying. "I'll send you the photo, you can see for yourself!"
With a "beep" sound.
A photo was sent over.
The assistant clicked it and was instantly struck by lightning.
In the photo, the woman on the hospital bed was as pale as paper, with chapped lips, wearing an oxygen mask and her eyes closed.
Although haggard and frail, that face, those familiar features...
It’s Ji Wan!
It was the face of the proprietress that he had seen countless times and had engraved in his mind!
But why...
Why is the registered name a completely unfamiliar name?
