Seeing that she was so worried, Huang Chen said casually, “sister-in-law, you are too surprised. Xie Ning is a boy. He must have gone out to play or go on a date. It’s okay.”
An Taotao shook her head, showing an expression that Huang Chen didn’t understand. “You don’t understand. People with Xie Ning’s character won’t come without saying a word. Something must have happened to trip him. It’s obvious that things are quite serious.”
Huang Chen opened his lips and didn’t know what to say.
An Taotao took out her mobile phone and dialed a number directly, “I’ll call first.”
“Don’t worry, sister-in-law. It must be all right.” Huang Chen comforted again.
An Taotao didn’t speak. Listening to the “toot toot” sound from the phone, she just felt a little annoyed. She dialed again, but still toot a few times and no one answered.
She put down her mobile phone and frowned slightly.
Seeing this, Huang Chen immediately asked, “sister-in-law, is there no answer?”
An Taotao held her cell phone and said restlessly, “yes, I made three calls and no one answered.”
Huang Chen waved his hand, but he still felt nothing was wrong. “He must have gone out to play, so he didn’t hear the phone. His sister-in-law should call again at more than 4 p. m. and he should be able to answer the phone.”
An Taotao put her mobile phone in her pocket, but she was not comforted. She said, “I still don’t think it’s that simple. I’m going to go to Xie Ning’s house. Are you going with me or go back to the villa first?”
Huang Chen looked at an Taotao and immediately showed his determination, “I must go with my sister-in-law.”
An Taotao glanced at him and nodded.
The ancient street is still as lively, with people coming and going, and all kinds of buildings are antique.
An Taotao and Huang Chen entered the alley and soon came to the door of Xie Ning’s house. She reached out and pressed the doorbell. The doorbell rang for a long time, but no one came to open the door.
“Sister in law, there is no one inside.” Huang Chen looked at the closed door and said with a smile, “I said, Xie Ning must have gone out to play, and he must have come back when it’s time for dinner.”
An Taotao glanced at Huang Chen, his big eyes shaking constantly, “really? But I still feel something wrong.”
Huang Chen smiled. “sister-in-law, you are worrying about nothing. What happened to an ordinary college student?”
After hearing this, an Taotao thought it was reasonable. Maybe she really went to play. She was too surprised.
“Shall we go back first?” An Taotao hesitated for a moment and suddenly said so.
Huang Chen nodded hurriedly. He also hoped to go back quickly. It was very inconvenient to hold the horse in his hand.
An Taotao glanced at him and quickly lifted his feet to leave. Before taking a few steps, she saw grandpa Xie stumble and run over. His face was eager, and her eyes were a little lax. It looked like the situation was not very good.
How could this happen?
Is it true that something happened to Xie Ning?
An Taotao immediately ran over to hold grandpa Xie and asked, “Grandpa Xie, is something wrong with you in such a hurry?”
Grandpa Xie struggled first. When he saw it was an Taotao, he relaxed, but his expression was still very anxious, “doctor an, my family is rather missing.”
With that, he held onto an Taotao tightly, just like holding onto some life-saving straw.
After an Taotao heard this, the whole person was stunned for a moment, only feeling very shocked, “what? Xie Ning is missing?”
At this time, Huang Chen also ran to an Taotao. When he heard that Xie Ning was missing, he was stunned. Obediently, an ordinary college student really disappeared?
After seeing acquaintances, Grandpa Xie revealed all the emotions all night, and his voice was hoarse, his eyes bloodshot, as if he hadn’t slept all night, “Yesterday morning, Ning Ning went out at more than eight o’clock and never came back again. I heard others say that at four or five o’clock yesterday afternoon, Ning Ning appeared in the ancient street, but suddenly disappeared. I don’t know where he went, so I kept asking, but there was no news except these.”
At last, Grandpa Xie was in a trance, but he still held on to an Taotao’s wrist. “Doctor an, do you think Ning Ning would be caught by bad guys? But, Ning Ning is usually so good, how could he be caught by bad guys?”
Looking at Grandpa Xie with an eager face, an Taotao didn’t know what to say. She could only casually comfort: “you said that Xie Ning was very good, then he would definitely not be caught by bad guys, and he might suddenly have something to do.”
After hearing this, Grandpa Xie was really comforted. He touched his nose and suddenly said angrily, “it’s too shameful for Ning Ning to say anything. I’ve been looking for it all night!”
On hearing this, an Taotao showed a clear look. As expected, he didn’t sleep all night. No wonder he looked so listless.
She and Huang Chen immediately helped grandpa Xie into the building and told him a few words, which made grandpa Xie calm and close his eyes.
When he got out of the building, an Taotao frowned and looked a little ugly. “Sure enough, my guess was right. Xie Ning really had an accident.”
”
Huang Chen originally wanted to comfort, but at the thought of Grandpa Xie’s worried expression, he pursed his lips and whispered, “it’s probably that some bad guy has caught him.”
Hearing the sound, she glanced at Huang Chen, “but Xie Ning, a college student, won’t offend any particularly bad people?”
Huang Chen was suddenly silent.
Seeing the atmosphere becoming more and more silent, the uneasiness in an Tao Tao’s heart became stronger. She put her hand against her chin and said, “first of all, we have to find out who Xie Ning has quarreled with recently. It should be better to start from here.”
After that, an Taotao’s eyes seemed to be filled with light, and became extremely bright. “A few days ago, Xie Ning had a quarrel with a sailor. Huang Chen, do you think it could be that sailor?”
Huang Chen didn’t know what happened that day, but it must be a big quarrel to make his sister-in-law remember so clearly.
“Possible.” Huang Chen held his chin and analyzed, “the sailors on that ship are fierce and have a strong heart of revenge.”
An Taotao squinted, like a wolf with fangs exposed, “then go and catch the sailor now?”
Huang Chen shook his head and said, “just go back to the villa first, sister-in-law. I’ll catch the sailor. It only takes ten minutes.”
An Taotao wanted to say anything more, so he stuffed her into the car. She had no choice but to tell the characteristics of the sailor first. Huang Chen waved his hands and said that he would definitely catch the sailor back.
Back at the villa, an Taotao was a little restless.
She kept looking out the door, hoping that Huang Chen would come back soon.
About ten minutes later, Huang Chen finally came back with a man.
An Taotao lifted her eyes and saw that it was really the sailor. His collar, which was held by Huang Chen, was like a chicken, completely without the usual authority.
