Time passed amidst the three people's voices.
It was almost ten o'clock, and Hu Xing was getting anxious. "Why haven't the wedding procession arrived yet? Weren't they supposed to arrive around nine o'clock?"
Qi Yang frowned. "Could something have delayed you?"
Su He was also getting anxious.
Su He waited until 10:30 before finally losing her temper.
"Something's not right. Something must have happened. The wedding procession wouldn't be this late. If there were any accidents, Captain Chen would definitely have sent us a message. The fact that we haven't heard anything means something is probably not good."
"Doesn't the lack of news mean there are no surprises?"
Su He shook her head. "But I have a bad feeling. It's more than an hour late. Something must have happened. No one has come to notify us yet. It's very likely that they didn't have time to notify us."
"What should we do then? Should we keep waiting?" Hu Xing asked.
Su He shook her head. She wasn't sure for the time being. What if they were really late and then didn't come back?
"How about I go check out Matchmaker Yu's house first?" Qi Yang suggested.
Su He thought for a moment, "Then let's go together. If nothing happens, just say that your family is a little worried and sent the person over first."
"OK"
So the three of them didn't delay and headed straight for the matchmaker's house in town.
When they arrived, they found that the matchmaker, Yu, was not at home, nor was her "nephew," Luo Jun. The family said that they were originally waiting at home to go with the bride to pick her up, but after waiting for a long time, they went to the post office to make a phone call.
Later, for reasons unknown, the two left in a hurry.
Upon hearing this, Su He sensed something was wrong.
The three of them didn't waste any time and hurried back to the capital.
However, it was too late when they got back. Team Leader Chen and the others were not there. Only Wang Yun, who stayed behind, did not know exactly what had happened, only that the mission had gone wrong.
So they could only wait in the office.
They waited until almost the end of the workday before Captain Chen finally returned with his men, looking travel-worn.
However, none of these people looked very well.
Su He had a pretty good idea of why.
Sure enough, when everyone sat down for a meeting, Captain Chen said, "The mission failed; we did not find our target, Third Brother."
As for the contact person who communicated with Matchmaker Yu, based on the contact information provided by Matchmaker Yu, the police had been keeping an eye on them beforehand and had already seen who went to collect the letter.
This person is a new face.
In order not to alert them, we did not capture them immediately.
However, they did send people to follow him. He was staying at a guesthouse in Beijing, using the name Hou Sankui. The letter of introduction stated that he was from the Henan Provincial Department Store and was there for a meeting.
We have already called the local police station to confirm this. There is indeed such a person at the local department store, but he is currently working and has not left, so it is confirmed that this person is impersonating someone else.
After he arrived in the capital, he was alone and did not appear to have any contact with anyone.
The police officer who was watching him said that he rushed out of the guesthouse this morning and got on a bus.
He suddenly changed his mind and went up too fast. The police officer who was watching him couldn't keep up, so he went on the next trip. However, because it was during working hours, he eventually lost track of him.
Later, we sent police to the train and bus stations to investigate, but we couldn't find any trace of this person.
Of course, he didn't go to pick up the bride either.
At this point, everyone fell silent; clearly, they all knew what had happened.
