Jiang Yilai realized something was wrong. Given Sun Yufei's current condition, she would definitely tell her before going out.
Moreover, she had arranged to meet Luo Chen at noon. It's not like he would call her away so early in the morning; it's completely out of character for him.
Just in case, Jiang Yilai still dialed Luo Chen's number.
Luo Chen answered the phone quickly, "Attorney Jiang, is there something you need at this hour?"
Jiang Yilai asked tentatively, "Didn't you make plans with Yufei at noon? I was thinking that she doesn't have much rest time, and going out would just waste time for you, so I'd like to invite you to my house for lunch instead."
Luo Chen declined, saying, "This would disturb your family. I've already made a reservation at the restaurant, and I'll come pick her up when she wakes up."
"Since you have plans, I won't force you. I'll hang up now." Jiang Yilai hung up the phone nonchalantly, but she was even more anxious inside.
It seems Sun Yufei isn't with him. Where could she have gone?
Jiang Yilai sent her several messages in a row, and finally had no choice but to call Fu Nanxiao again.
After learning about the situation, Fu Nanxiao reassured her, "Don't panic. Listen to me. Go back to your room now and check the nearby surveillance footage to see how she left."
Yes, Jiang Yilai was really flustered; why didn't she think to check the surveillance footage first?
"Okay, I'll go back and check right away."
"If anything happens, please contact me again and I will come back as soon as possible."
Jiang Yilai responded and hung up the phone. She immediately turned on her computer to check the nearby surveillance footage. Based on the time Wang Sao mentioned, she located the scene of Sun Yufei getting into a car in front of her house.
The car wasn't a taxi but a private car. If you turn the time back a few minutes, you'll find that the car had been parked there for a long time.
Then, when Sun Yufei got into the car, she was talking to the driver. Did they know each other?
Jiang Yilai wrote down the license plate number and sent it to Fu Nanxiao, asking him to investigate the car owner's information.
Jiang Yilai then tracked the car based on its direction of travel, but it disappeared in a section of road without surveillance cameras.
Since there was an intersection ahead on this road, and the surveillance footage showed the vehicle from more than half an hour ago, she had to go there in person to check the situation.
Jiang Yilai drove to the spot where the surveillance cameras disappeared and found that the cameras on that section of the road were damaged. There were many vehicles passing by during that time, so it was possible that they had left in another vehicle.
She just couldn't understand what was going on. Sun Yufei was always sensible and wouldn't do something like this for no reason. Could it be that an accident had happened?
Jiang Yilai couldn't wait any longer and called Fu Nanxiao again, asking him to send people to investigate.
Ten minutes later, Fu Nanxiao replied, saying that the license plate they found had been cancelled a year ago, and someone was using a fake plate.
“Lai Lai, this situation is very strange. You should go home immediately and not go anywhere. I’m already on my way back.”
Fu Nanxiao sensed that something was amiss and could only urge her to go home quickly to avoid any danger.
But Jiang Yilai couldn't calm down; how could an accident suddenly happen out of nowhere?
She looked around and said, "I see some vendors around here. I'll go and visit them; maybe I can find some clues."
"No, you stay in the car and don't move around. Wait for me to come over so we can go together."
Jiang Yilai felt he was being a bit too nervous, so she reassured him, "There are pedestrians and vehicles around even in broad daylight. Don't worry, I'll get back to you once I find out."
To avoid Fu Nanxiao continuing to stop her, Jiang Yilai could only hang up the phone and inquire about the situation after she finished speaking.
