The little boy was sternly rejected by his mother, silently shedding tears and falling silent, but before leaving, he couldn’t help but glance in the direction of the cardboard box.
How could such a cute kitten be abandoned like that?
Cierra was extremely angry, gnawing on her bread fiercely, tears of grievances streaming down her face.
Listening to the conversation between the mother and son next to her, Cheyenne’s eyes were fixed on the janitor and doctor inside the elevator.
For some reason, she felt that these two were strange.
Especially the doctor in the white coat; she had no impression of him in her mind at all. She even began to doubt if he was really from their hospital.
Before Cheyenne could come to a conclusion, the elevator doors were slowly closing.
The janitor seemed to have grown taller, as his clothes were noticeably too short.
At the same time, on the other side, the elevator arrived, and a woman impatiently stepped into the elevator in her high heels, followed by others.
Iker was also preparing to leave, but he noticed Cheyenne still standing in place and couldn’t help but remind her, “Cheyenne, what’s wrong?”
The elevator had arrived.
In the next moment, under Cheyenne’s watchful gaze, the janitor seemed a bit nervous and instinctively pulled down his cap.
It was this gesture that allowed the sharp-eyed Cheyenne to catch a glimpse of a fluorescent green band on the man’s wrist.
Cheyenne came back to her senses and suddenly reached out towards the closing elevator doors.
But at that moment, the gap was only about two to three centimeters wide, getting smaller and smaller.
Her action alarmed both sides, making everyone in the elevator and Iker extremely nervous.
“Cheyenne, no! It’s dangerous!”
Just as Cheyenne’s fingertips were about to touch the elevator doors, Iker quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
There have been many elevator accidents reported in the news.
Some people trying to squeeze in at the last moment ended up with their heads trapped and crushed in the closing doors.
The least severe outcome of her actions would have been a broken hand.
However, Cheyenne couldn’t care less at this moment; all she could see was catching the two people from earlier. But the elevator had already shown it was arriving at the 1st floor.
“Master Iker, I think there’s something wrong with those two inside, so we can’t let them go.”
“Why?”
He had seen the two just now, but he hadn’t noticed anything suspicious.
Then he heard Cheyenne continue in his ear, “First, the man had a fluorescent green wristband.”
“Second, I have never ordered the staff to drive away the stray cats in the hospital, but instead, I have them fed regularly.”
Being a pet lover herself, she already had Chance at home, but Cheyenne still wanted to adopt a tabby cat.
Preferably an orange cat, but it seemed like this type of cat had become rare in recent years and was hard to find.
After hearing Cheyenne’s reasons, Iker also realized the seriousness of the situation. He glanced at the elevator that was too late to rush into, his brows furrowed.
“Alright, I also saw those two just now, so I should be able to recognize them. Let’s split up, Cheyenne, you go to the office to find Cierra, and I’ll go after them!”
“But…”
“Don’t worry, since they’ve made a move, they must be coming for us. So even if we don’t actively look for them, they’ll come to us.”
The most important thing now is to find Cierra.
Cheyenne carefully considered Master Iker’s words and nodded in agreement, “Alright, you must also be careful.”
“Okay.”
Without waiting for the elevator, Iker chose to take the stairs. In order to save time, he leaped forward, using both his hands and feet to grab onto the handrail of the stairs and slide down naturally.
A young boy beside him spoke in awe, “Wow, Uncle is so amazing!”
The young boy was completely unaware that he had separated from his mother, who was frantically searching for him in the elevator.
“William? Where did my William go?”
“How could this happen? William, my child.”
The other people in the elevator looked at her with extreme sympathy, as losing a child in the hospital meant it was unlikely they would be found again.
Everyone started discussing frantically:
“What’s the point of crying now? When the elevator reaches the 8th floor, you should get out and go back to the 3rd floor to search.”
“Yeah, recently there have been many cases of missing children in Akloit, your son is probably…”
As soon as they heard the words “children missing”, the beautiful woman clenched her fists in anger and shouted at the man who seemed to be enjoying her distress.
“Shut up, my son won’t be taken by traffickers sob… William, you naughty child, why didn’t you stay with me.”
Meanwhile, the two who had narrowly escaped Cheyenne and Iker’s notice arrived at the hospital entrance.
The man disguised as a janitor took off his black hat and mask, revealing a handsome face with a hint of evil charm.
This was the first time Cierra had seen his face clearly, and she was greatly surprised.
He… he looks like Dad!
“Where’s the car?”
“What’s going on? I clearly parked here just now, wait here, I’ll go check ahead.”
Upon hearing this response, a wave of anger surged in the man’s eyes, as he harshly reprimanded him without mercy:
“Are you silly? Every second we stay here increases the danger, so hurry up and drive.”
“Yes, yes, Mr. Foley, please don’t scold me.”
‘He talked about racing against time, but wasn’t scolding me taking time?’
Vincent reluctantly picked up a cardboard box and followed the man, “Hurry up.”
The two-and-a-half-year-old child weighed almost 20 pounds, and carrying her all the way made his arms numb.
After a few steps, the man finally saw the familiar car parked by the roadside near the garbage bin.
“It turns out I remembered the parking spot wrong, Mr. Foley, I’m sorry, I’ll be more careful next time.”
“Open the trunk!”
“Yes.”
The man unlocked with the key, then opened the car door, and bent down to press the button on the trunk.
Mr. Foley, inconvenient with the cardboard box in his hands, placed it next to the garbage bin.
He reached to open the trunk.
“What’s going on? It won’t open…”
“Huh? This… I just bought this car from the second-hand market this morning, so I’m not very familiar with it.”
The man in the white coat explained, sweating profusely.
Vincent took a deep breath, feeling almost driven to madness by his teammate, who seemed to have the intelligence of a pig.
Why did Elsa send such a drag for him?
