"It seems to be Building A in the community!"
The man tilted his head and thought for a long time. Meanwhile, Gu Sisi's heart sank instantly.
Building A was right in front of her home. She was kidnapped there last time.
"Were there any other people around them?"
"Let me think." The man being questioned was quite patient and answered her carefully. "There were quite a few people coming and going. I'm not sure."
Gu Sisi understood that the man might have just taken a casual glance and didn't pay much attention. She was already grateful that he could recognize them.
"Thank you." Gu Sisi sincerely expressed her gratitude and then rushed to ask others without a moment's delay.
She didn't notice the strange smile on the man's lips when she turned around.
Gu Sisi met her uncle in the living room.
They spent time until noon. Gu Sisi gasped for breath and said, "Uncle, how about we take a short rest and then go to the police station?"
They had asked around, and almost no one had seen them since yesterday morning. They had been out of contact for a full 24 hours.
A look of hesitation flashed across her uncle's face, but he finally compromised.
"Okay."
Without knowing more details, they didn't inform other relatives. After coming back from the police station after making a statement, Gu Sisi said to her uncle, "Uncle, you can go back first. I'll let you know if there's any news."
"Aren't you afraid to be at home alone?" her uncle asked with concern.
"It's okay," Gu Sisi shook her head. "I'll ask my friend for help."
Yes, this time Gu Sisi had made up her mind. She would ask Huo Cheng for help. She knew she didn't have the ability to find them on her own.
"Alright, I'll go back first. Be sure to contact me if there's any news!" her uncle emphasized.
After Gu Sisi watched her uncle leave, she closed the door and called Huo Cheng. However, no one answered for a long time.
On Huo Cheng's side, he came back from the meeting room.
Chen Fang handed the CEO's phone to him.
"CEO Huo, your phone. The young mistress called just now."
During the shareholders' meeting just now, Huo Cheng had given his phone to Chen Fang. Looking at it, there were three missed calls. A hint of worry flashed across Huo Cheng's heart, and he called back.
But no one answered. Huo Cheng stood still at the door of his office. After a long time, he looked at his phone with a solemn expression.
"What's wrong, CEO Huo?" Chen Fang asked warily.
"Call the mansion and see if the young mistress is there."
Although Chen Fang was puzzled as to why they were standing at the door, he still obediently called according to the CEO's instruction.
"Sister Hu said that this morning, the young mistress told Yang Qian that she had something to do and didn't need lunch to be prepared for her."
"This morning? What time?"
"Around 9:30." Chen Fang glanced at Huo Cheng's face. Sure enough, his face darkened. He strode into his office, took off his suit jacket, and randomly picked up a car key.
He ordered, "Find out where the young mistress is now!"
"Yes!" There was seriousness in Chen Fang's eyes.
Huo Cheng rushed downstairs with the key. When he got in the car in the basement, he received a message.
"CEO Huo, the young mistress went back to her hometown, but now we don't know where she is."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, the car shot out like a taut arrow.
"Do you know why we brought you here?"
Gu Sisi's shoulder was held by a man. In front of her was a sexy woman in a tight leather suit.
"What?" Gu Sisi was confused.
This time, Gu Sisi's eyes and mouth weren't covered. However, even so, the items on her were ransacked, which was why her phone was in an unanswered state.
The woman gave a charming smile and turned around. With her gorgeous appearance and delicate face, there was an extremely disharmonious gloom in her eyes.
Seeing Gu Sisi looking completely bewildered, the woman laughed again. She gently stroked Gu Sisi's face with one hand. A chill ran through Gu Sisi's heart. She didn't know what this woman was going to do.
Letting Gu Sisi struggle, the woman gave a charming smile, tucked the hair on her forehead behind her ear, and shook her head.
"The principles of this world are really hard to explain..."
It seemed like a sigh, and she didn't continue.
Instead, she asked, "Do you know the reason why you've been injured or kidnapped one after another?"
The woman saw the shock in Gu Sisi's eyes. She moved her mouth away from Gu Sisi's ear, hooked her lips in satisfaction, turned around, and sat on the chair opposite Gu Sisi.
Before Gu Sisi could react, she continued, "Or do you know the reason why your parents are missing this time?"
"You know?" Gu Sisi asked warily.
"Me? Of course I do. Moreover..." The woman snapped her fingers, and another person came over and handed her something.
She took it and continued, "I'm not the only one. There's someone who knows much more than me."
Gu Sisi stared at the woman without blinking. The woman seemed very satisfied. She slowly showed the item in her hand. It was a photo, nothing special.
However, Gu Sisi recognized it at a glance. All the things in the photo belonged to her parents.
The watch that Father Gu hardly ever took off, the necklace that Mother Gu had worn for years, and even their rings. There were other things, but Gu Sisi didn't have the heart to look any further.
Her eyes turned red, and she demanded, "My parents are in your hands?"
"Hey?" The woman thought this statement was wrong. She continued to emphasize, "Little girl, didn't I tell you? There's someone who knows much more than me."
"Who?" Gu Sisi asked following her words.
The woman nodded in satisfaction and slowly guided, "You can guess this person without me telling you."
"CEO Huo, we just investigated all of the young mistress's actions and found that she went to the police station."
"What? Went to the police? Investigate thoroughly."
"Yes."
When Huo Cheng arrived at Gu Sisi's home, he noticed something was wrong. The door opened with a gentle push.
There was a gift messily piled up at the door, which seemed out of place with the well - organized home. Huo Cheng took one look and then focused on the door lock.
There were no signs of prying, and there was no one in the house. The person had been taken away. Huo Cheng came to this conclusion.
It definitely wasn't that she had gone out for something on her own. Otherwise, the door wouldn't have been left unlocked. There was danger!
This was Huo Cheng's first reaction.
The phone rang again.
Chen Fang organized his words and immediately said all the key information.
"CEO Huo, the young mistress went to the police because Father Gu and Mother Gu are missing. And this time the young mistress came back just to look for them."
"Okay, I see."
Hearing the reply from the other end, Chen Fang was about to hang up when he heard, "Wait. There's something else that needs to be investigated."
After another bout of busyness, Huo Cheng went downstairs and immediately rushed to another place.
In the noisy air, two men held down another man.
The leading man raised his eyebrows and said, "I said I'd give you time to prepare, but what did you do? You've got nothing."
"Give me a little more time!" The man's pupils dilated in fear. Looking at the big knife on his finger, he couldn't stop trembling.
"You've been hanging around here for quite a while. You know the rules here. Since the time is up and the opportunity has been given, follow the rules." The leading man glanced at him lightly, as if looking at an ant.
He threw away the cigarette butt in his mouth and said casually, "Chop it off!"
The man's sobs and struggles were extremely miserable. Just as the big knife was about to cut down on his finger...
"Wait!" A voice broke the calm here.
