At half past nine, Lin Qingqing, Lin Daqing and Liu Daxiu returned home from the hospital.
The yard was pitch black.
Lin Daqing turned on the lights in the yard and let Lin Qingqing and her group in.
He went to turn on the lights in the living room and the bedroom, and the house was the same as when he left at noon.
"Hasn't Third Sister-in-law come back yet?" Lin Qingqing asked.
Lin Daqing remained silent.
He walked to the phone and called the factory.
No one is here.
Then he called Lin Baojun at the factory.
Not here either.
"Are you having dinner with a familiar boss?"
Liu Daxiu guessed.
"Who did you go shopping with today, Sister-in-law?"
Lin Qingqing sat next to him.
Lin Daqing frowned.
"Zhong Qinqin."
He picked up the phone and called Zhong Qinqin's home.
The call was connected soon.
"Qinqin, your sister Lian went shopping with you this afternoon, right?"
Zhong Qinqin on the other end of the phone expected Lin Daqing to make this call.
With a calm expression, he said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Lin Daqing asked hurriedly, "What time do you finish eating?"
Zhong Qinqin paused.
"We had dinner at the Deli Restaurant, which ended around eight o'clock. Sister Lian and I parted ways at the Meihua Road intersection."
Lin Daqing suddenly felt something was wrong.
"She hasn't come back yet. Did she tell me where she went?"
Zhong Qinqin replied decisively: "Sister Lian didn't say she was going somewhere else, but she was in a bad mood today and said she didn't want to go back to Kyoto. Maybe she was delayed on the way. You guys wait a little longer."
Lin Daqing frowned.
"I'm sorry to bother you so late."
He hung up the phone in a state of uneasiness.
Looking at Lin Qingqing, she said, "We finished eating at around eight o'clock. The restaurant is about ten minutes away from home by bus, and more than half an hour's walk. It's already been an hour."
Lin Qingqing thought for a moment and asked, "Has this happened to Third Sister-in-law before?"
Lin Daqing shook his head.
"She likes shopping, but Guangzhou is a bit chaotic so she won't stay out too late. Even if she can't come back for something, she will give me her seat."
Lin Qingqing crossed her arms and glanced at Liu Daxiu, who looked worried.
"Fourth sister-in-law, go wash up and rest. You've been tired all day and you still have a lot to do tomorrow."
"I asked Qi Nan and Chen Jie to verify the information Zhong Qinqin gave them, and then ask along the way if anyone has seen any trace of Third Sister-in-law. Otherwise, the shops on the street will be closed in half an hour."
Liu Daxiu nodded.
"I won't sleep. I'll see if there's anything I can do to help."
After saying that, she went to wash up.
I'll clear the bathroom for Qingqing to use later.
"Qi Nan, Chen Jie."
Lin Qingqing shouted.
The next second, two people appeared at the door of the hall.
"Go verify the information Zhong Qinqin provided, then search for Third Sister-in-law. Call her back every hour."
"yes."
The two went to Lin Daqing to find out everything Zhong Qinqin had just said, and asked for photos of Zhang Guilian.
He hurried out.
Lin Daqing fidgeted uncomfortably in his seat.
I've been with Zhang Guilian and her husband for eight years, so it's impossible not to be worried when they suddenly disappear.
"Third brother, you wait here for news. I'll take the baby to sleep first and come back later."
Lin Daqing nodded: "You go."
One hour later.
