"This matter should be done sooner rather than later. I will set off today and go to City C. I will make adequate preparations there first."

Qin Yuan thought for a while and said.

"Okay! We are waiting for your good news in the company."

Qin Yuan returned to his room and packed his things.

There are not many things that you need to bring with you when you go on a long journey. Apart from the invention given by Lin Xiaoxiao, you don’t need anything else. The main thing is to think and summarize what happened these days and plan for the next step.

Just a few minutes after Qin Yuan sat down, the phone rang. It was Team Leader Jin.

"Hello, Team Leader Jin?"

"Captain Qin! There's something new!"

The anxious voice of Team Leader Jin came from over there.

"What's wrong?"

"Isn't it Miss Weiwei who was recuperating in the hospital before? She was discharged from the hospital today, but she can't contact her father!"

"What?"

Qin Yuan was confused.

"Where is Weiwei now?"

"Still in the hospital, emotionally unstable! Come here quickly!"

"Okay, I'll go there now."

Qin Yuan hung up the phone and immediately drove to the hospital regardless of his physical fatigue.

When we arrived at the hospital, we went straight to Weiwei's ward.

A lot of people have gathered inside.

There were some police officers, including Team Leader Jin, and a few ordinary citizens, who seemed to be relatives of Weiwei.

Weiwei was lying on the bed with a dull expression and said nothing.

Qin Yuan walked through the crowd and came to Weiwei.

"Weiwei, are you okay? What's going on?"

Qin Yuan said with concern.

"I...."

"I lost contact with my father."

After a long while, Weiwei uttered these words.

"Don't be anxious. Speak slowly and make it clear what you know."

Qin Yuan touched Weiwei's forehead and said softly.

"Well, it's like this. Last night was the day before I was discharged from the hospital. I wanted to tell my father the news, but when I called, no one answered."

"I thought maybe he was tired and fell asleep, so I didn't think much about it. This morning, I called him again and found that I still couldn't get through. I was a little anxious and didn't know what to do, so I had to call Jin

The team leader said so."

"Later at noon today, Team Leader Jin really couldn't contact his father, so he sent people to his house to look for someone. However, they found that the building was empty."

Speaking of this, Weiwei's face shed uncontrollable tears.

"Have you been in contact with him before? Did the situation arise just yesterday?"

Qin Yuan asked.

"That's right. He came to care about my condition every day before, but suddenly he disappeared without any reason, so I was very worried."

Weiwei's crystal clear eyes showed a trace of deep worry.

Qin Yuan nodded silently.

Then he fell into deep thought.

"Did you find anything when you went to the old man's home?"

Qin Yuan turned around and asked Team Leader Jin on the side.

"Well, everything in the house is neat, all valuables are there, and the door locks are all intact. It doesn't look like there are any signs of theft or robbery."

This is strange.

According to his understanding of the old man, he was very polite in dealing with others and had no enemies. So, if he didn't come here for money, what was the reason for abducting the old man?

"Without further ado, let's go to his home and have a look."

Qin Yuan said.

"Okay, we'll leave right away."

"Weiwei, please stay here and wait for our news. You will be back soon."

Qin Yuan comforted Weiwei.

"Well, I'm optimistic about you!"

Weiwei said.

Afterwards, Qin Yuan and Team Leader Jin left the hospital and drove to Weiwei's home.

Weiwei's hometown is located on the edge of the city, in the garden of a farmhouse.

Although it is located on the outskirts of the city, it is the most luxurious building nearby, a five-story self-built villa building, very grand.

The two of them led several police officers to the door of the villa.

Because of the eucalyptus, Team Leader Jin arranged for police officers to set up a fence around the building.

The two passed through the door and entered the house.

This is a retro building, the interior style is imitation European architectural style, very gorgeous and grand.

An old woman wearing a maid's costume was crying softly at the door.

Team leader Jin told Qin Yuan that this was the housekeeper of the villa, who was extremely sad because the master was missing.

Qin Yuan observed all the way from the entrance hall to the lobby and found nothing unusual. The objects were neat and placed in a reasonable position.

Everything was normal, the cutlery on the table was wiped to a shiny finish, and the chairs and sofas were also very clean.

It can be seen that Weiwei's father is a very clean person.

This scene makes it difficult to imagine that this is a house without an owner.

Qin Yuan and Team Leader Jin came to the second floor to inspect.

On the second floor is the room of Weiwei and the old man.

The housekeeper followed the two, and Qin Yuan asked her:

"Auntie, when did you discover that your master was missing?"

The maid touched the tears on her face and whispered: "I'm not sure either.

"

"What I am sure of is that the master talked to me last night. I got up to make breakfast this morning, but when the breakfast was ready, I didn't see the master yet, because usually in the morning the master would be there before I had finished the breakfast.

I’ve already gotten up to exercise.”

"I felt very strange, so I went to his room to check, but his door was always closed. No matter how I called, no one responded."

"In the end I had no choice but to call the police."

Having said this, the housekeeper couldn't hide the sadness on her face and burst into tears again.

"Comrade policeman, my grandpa doesn't know how to..."

"Auntie, don't worry. We're still not sure about the old man's condition. Don't be too sad. We will do our best to search."

"The key is that you have to cooperate with our work, do you understand?"

Team leader Jin comforted.

"Okay...Okay."

"About what time did you last see the old man last night?"

"Around 11 o'clock, because my usual habit is that before he goes to bed, I will go to the door of his room to check the hanging lights in the corridor, and then turn them off before going back to sleep."

"Usually when I get to his door, I will say good night to him, and he will reply politely, so I can make sure he is still in the room."

The housekeeper said seriously.

"When did you wake up in the morning and find that the master was not inside?"

"Around eight o'clock."

replied the housekeeper.

"Then what is certain is that the time when the old man disappeared was between 11 o'clock last night and 8 o'clock this morning."

Team Leader Jin said.

"Is there a camera at the door of the old man's room?"

Qin Yuan asked.

"Yes, but I don't know why. When the police came to extract it today, the camera mysteriously failed."

Team Leader Kim replied.
