In the end, this disagreement, which was not really a debate, ended in a triumphant victory. Sitting in An's car, she and An Tong went to the police station together. The person who called An Tong was a middle-aged man who looked very unkempt. His name was Li Bi, and he looked to be in his thirties, but the sharp glint in his eyes was not to be underestimated.
An Tong was to be questioned alone, so Feng Guang could only rest on a chair outside the office.
“Mr. An,” Li Bi said, looking at the young man sitting opposite him, “we received a report from your mother’s colleague that your mother has been missing for a week. Of course, you don’t need to think too badly about it. I called you here to ask if you have been in contact with your mother in the past week.”
“No.” An Tong frowned her pretty brows. “Mom said she’s going on a business trip for a month. It’s common for her to go on business trips. Sometimes she’s so busy that she doesn’t even remember to call me.”
“So, even if she hasn’t contacted you this week, you wouldn’t find it strange.” Li Bi took notes. “According to the information, you live with your mother, and your father divorced your mother and went abroad when you were very young.”
"Yes, I was raised by my mother."
Li Bi sighed, "Being a single mother is really not easy."
“Officer,” An Tong’s dark eyes narrowed, “I want to know, how do you define my mother’s disappearance?”
“For now, she is missing. All we know is that we can’t contact Ms. An. According to her colleagues, she is not the kind of person who would suddenly leave without leaving a message. Perhaps I’m being a bit harsh…” Li Bi hesitated for a moment, “Until the body is found, we cannot define this as a criminal case.”
"I understand." Although An Tong looked distressed, he was different from other family members who learned that something might have happened to their relatives. He didn't cry or make a fuss. He was just surrounded by a quiet atmosphere and stayed alone in his own world. Even if he was worried, he wouldn't show it.
Thinking back to when he saw the man pushing a wheelchair in, Li Bi stared at him for a second, and now he felt quite uncomfortable. He coughed awkwardly and said, "Mr. An, if you receive any news about your mother in the next few days, please let us know. Please wait for our news. I will notify you as soon as we find anything. You can go back now."
An Tong nodded politely and pushed his wheelchair out of the office. As soon as he came out, the girl who was sitting in the chair immediately ran over.
"How is it? What happened? Is it going to be difficult to resolve?"
She asked three questions in a row, revealing her nervousness. Under these circumstances, being cared for seemed like a great comfort. An Tong looked at her, the worry in his eyes lessening slightly, but only by a barely perceptible amount. He said in a heavy tone, "My mother is missing."
"Gone? What does that mean...?"
He thought for a moment, "Perhaps 'missing' is a more appropriate word to describe it."
The scenery instantly lost its ability to communicate.
Hey, system, what happened to the sweet and innocent campus romance? This plot is getting weird, it's turning into a suspense drama!
System: "This world is unstable. The target's initial value for corruption is at the critical point, which deviates from the plot. Please handle this yourself."
Holy crap!
She cursed inwardly, not expecting An Tong to be a character on the verge of turning evil. In other words, she had no idea whether he had already turned evil. The evil turn of a character usually not only increases the difficulty of her conquest but also puts her in danger. Generally speaking, the evil turn of a character is because the conquestr has taken the wrong path. This is the first time she has encountered a conquest target who is destined to be evil from the very beginning!
Feng Guang silently wept. Could she take back her boastful words about pursuing him? She wanted to focus on living well first.
