As usual, there were delicious dishes and fine wines. Everyone enjoyed themselves at the table, and sometimes they would discuss current affairs.

The women would also chat about the latest fashion gossip. Everyone present was in a good mood, and they felt much more comfortable when talking to each other, and became familiar with each other.

After drinking a few glasses of mellow wine, Cheng Xin, who was always silent and had a stern face, showed signs of drunkenness, and began to talk more.

The third daughter was Du Feng, and the fourth son Cheng Xinfu listened with relish.

As the saying goes, three women make a play. Sister Huang had a great chat with Mr. Chen's third daughter and fourth daughter-in-law.

Mr. Chen's fifth son-in-law sat there timidly, without saying a word, and sometimes when he heard them laughing, he would smile and nod. He rarely participated in the discussion, but squinted his eyes without looking up to scan the table and observe the people present.

About five minutes later, Aunt Liu hurried over, her face was not very good, and she whispered something in Butler Zhang's ear.

Soon Butler Liu also rushed out with Aunt Liu.

Mo Xiaoqing wondered in her heart, Liu Xinhua has not shown up so far, could he have had an accident?

Glass of wine after glass, the diners at the table were in high spirits, talking loudly, drinking and clinking glasses.

When the dinner was coming to an end, the lights suddenly flickered, and the candles on the table flickered.

At the same time, the lights in the restaurant suddenly flickered a few times, and then went out in an instant, and the restaurant fell into darkness.

The huge restaurant suddenly fell into chaos, with the sound of children crying and women screaming.

About two minutes later, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew into the restaurant, and the candles flickered again. At the same time, there was a strange woman's cry that seemed to come from a very far away place.

The women and children in the room were all scared and huddled together.

"Ah!!"

Yu Manman, who was sitting next to Mo Xiaoqing, suddenly trembled all over, staring at the front with wide eyes.

"Ah, there is a ghost behind."

Soon after, the lights in the restaurant came on again, as if it was daytime. Everyone looked in the direction Yu Manman was looking.

But what he saw was the silhouette of the swaying branches by the window, swaying in the wind, and there was nothing else unusual in the room.

Liu Xiaobo rushed over, hugged Yu Manman with both hands, held her in his arms, comforted her, and said:

"Manman, don't worry. You must be dazzled. There is nothing in the direction you pointed. There are no ghosts in this world."

Yu Manman was still shaking all over. "I'm not lying. I'm not dazzled. Just now when the candles flickered, I looked at the windowsill and suddenly a white shadow appeared. Her long hair covered her face. When I looked over in surprise, she suddenly used both hands to push her long hair away and looked through the glass.

Guess what? She was bleeding all over, and one of her eyeballs fell out."

Mo Xiaoqing also looked around the entire restaurant carefully, then stood up and walked to the windowsill, opened the window, and looked outside.

There was really nothing, only the sea breeze blowing the branches, and the branches were blooming with brilliant white flowers. Under the projection of the street lamps, the mottled shadows of the trees were cast on the ground, which was very strange and terrifying.

Mo Xiaoqing returned to her seat again and said with certainty, "Manman, you may be dazzled. The so-called white shadows may be the white flowers on the branches."

Many people left their seats and ran to the windowsill to take a look. They all agreed with Mo Xiaoqing's opinion that Yu Manman was dazzled.

Yu Manman was still mumbling that she was not dazzled and really saw a female ghost in white clothes, but no one in the restaurant believed her, so she had to give up unhappily.

When the dinner was about to end, Butler Chen suddenly walked into the restaurant with a solemn face, hunched over to Xu Yao's side, and whispered a few words to her.

Xu Yao immediately stood up and followed Butler Zhang out.

Mo Xiaoqing was worried, thinking something had happened. So she left the table on the pretext of going to the restroom.

After she went out, she took a few steps and listened carefully. Sure enough, there was a sound coming from outside the corridor. Mo Xiaoqing followed the sound and hid behind a hidden corner. She

stuck her head out and saw Butler Chen standing beside Xu Yao, with his back slightly bent, saying,

"Captain Xu, I was sent by our master to discuss something with you. Didn't the second son of the Chen family not show up at dinner tonight? Later, I sent people to many places to look for him, and searched the entire island, but I didn't see him."

Xu Yao said, "Could it be that the second son left the island without saying hello?"

"That's impossible. There are cameras at the piers where you want to leave the island. I didn't have anyone to investigate, which shows that he didn't leave."

Butler Chen clasped his hands together, touched his nose, and said, "Mr. Chen has mentioned to me that the director sent you here to protect our old man so that he can smoothly run the company.

But now I'm a little panicked. The sudden disappearance of the second son is a sign. I think someone has been waiting in the dark. Captain Xu, I hope you don't spread this matter and cause panic among everyone. Can you arrange someone to investigate secretly?"

Xu Yao frowned, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Okay, I will send someone to investigate. May I ask, when did you find out that the second son Chen Xinhua was missing?"

"Actually, I went to his room to ask him to come out for lunch this afternoon, but he didn't open the door after I knocked for a long time. The second young master is always restless, so I thought he had gone to some corner of the resort to have fun again, so I didn't take it seriously.

But he didn't show up at dinner today. I knocked on the door again, but still no one answered. That's when I became suspicious. I mobilized many people to search the entire resort, but still couldn't find any trace of him.

I also checked the surveillance and found that he He did not leave the resort, so I panicked and reported the matter to Mr. Chen, who told me to come find you."

Xu Yao listened carefully and finally replied, "Okay, I don't know much about the matter yet, so I can't answer you quickly. After all, the second young master has not been missing for a long time."

Mr. Chen bowed slightly, "Then it's Captain Lao Xu, please investigate as quickly as possible, I'm afraid someone will harm the second young master."

After Butler Chen turned around and left, Mo Xiaoqing couldn't help but rushed out.

"Xu Yao, what were you talking about just now? Is our second son Chen Xinhua missing?"

After hearing the voice, Xu Yao turned around in surprise, his face very solemn and cold, "Do you know that eavesdropping on others' conversations is an immoral behavior, not to mention that you are a policeman, don't you have any self-discipline?"

"I'm sorry!" Mo Xiaoqing explained a little panicked, "Because I just saw Butler Chen's face was very panicked when he came to see you, and Chen Xinhua didn't show up at dinner.

I guess it might have something to do with him."

Xu Yao said calmly, "Okay, I know."
