Chapter 121 Will she be afraid alone [Supplement 9.7]
Nine p.m.
Qi Zhou, Ning Siyun and Wen Jinnian gathered in a hotel in the city center.
It's not far from the shooting gallery, and you can see the Juyuan Center from the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Zhou Jingmo kept answering and calling, but so far, no one has found Yun Shu.
Qi Zhou was the last one to arrive. Seeing the low air pressure in the room, his voice dropped a bit.
"Holy crap, he really ran away like that? How did he do it?"
Ning Siyun glanced at Wen Jinnian who was lazing next to him, and said with an ugly face: "They made a fuss in the shooting gallery, and Yun Shu got angry and ran out."
"A fight in the shooting gallery?" Qi Zhou looked at Wen Jinnian in disbelief, "You go to the shooting gallery to make trouble for someone? You really know how to choose a place!"
There are real guns everywhere, and any shot can send someone to the sky at random.
Really not afraid of death.
Wen Jinnian was not at all as anxious and worried as they were. She snorted lightly. If she didn't say anything more outrageous, she was just worried about igniting the anger of Zhou Jingmo.
Qi Zhou brushed his hair and asked again: "There is no news yet? Even if she ran out, someone would definitely see her. There are surveillance cameras everywhere. How could she not find anyone? Is she hiding?"
"Probably," Ning Siyun pressed her forehead, worried, "She's not familiar with this place at all. It's okay to hide. If she goes out and encounters someone with ill intentions..."
"Probably not, she is quite smart. But you should also worry about whether she will figure out what we lied to her when she goes out."
Isn't Zhou Jingmo locking her up in the villa just to prevent her from contacting others and continue to be an obedient "person from another world"?
Now she is very likely to blend in with the crowd. If she chats with people a few times, the lie will be exposed. Not to mention that if she goes to the police station...
Ning Siyun took a deep breath: "There's nothing we can do about it, now we have to get her back first."
In fact, he still had some secret expectations that he couldn't explain clearly.
Maybe, even if Yun Shu discovers the truth, it is Zhou Jingmo who will bear the brunt of the impact now, not him. If Yun Shu finds out that the person she relies on has actually been lying to her, how will she treat Zhou Jingmo?
He closed his eyes, suppressed such thoughts, and turned on his mobile phone to repeatedly check the bank card usage records.
Eleven o'clock.
Still no one was found.
Zhou Jingmo was already on the verge of an explosion. He took the last piece of surveillance from Assistant Zuo and watched it repeatedly.
That was a scene outside an old movie building before Yun Shu disappeared.
The most central location in the city center has been planned for decades. The modern buildings of that time are simply not enough to be placed where there are high-rise buildings everywhere today.
In such a place, only department stores and original movie theaters that have been there for many years are still there, and modern equipment such as surveillance is not as complete as other places.
Yunshu disappeared at the entrance like that corridor. In the past few hours, moviegoers came in and out, and we could only capture her figure from a certain angle. It was impossible to tell when and where she went.
If she deliberately hides, it will make it more difficult to find her.
But after Zhou Jingmo watched the surveillance footage many times, and then looked up at the dark night sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the idea that prevailed was -
Would she be scared if she was hiding outside alone?
In the villa, she would be in a quarrel, and when there were only a few people in the shooting gallery, she would show dependence and closeness. It was obvious that she would be scared in a strange environment. Now that she was alone outside, she didn't know how she would cry.
He lowered his eyes and pinched his eyebrows, then without saying a word, he suddenly waved his hand and turned over the computer.
The computer and its charger were smashed to pieces on the ground, startling Qi Zhou.
"Brother Zhou, don't worry, she's not stupid and knows how to protect herself. And doesn't she have a card? You have to use money for food and accommodation, right? As long as she swipes her card, we can find her."
"What I'm afraid of is that she hasn't used the card so late." Ning Siyun wiped his face.
It was so late and she didn't use the money in her card. Did she not eat or drink, or did something happen to her?
"Jinnian," Zhou Jingmo suddenly called out and said coldly, "The matter between you and Yun Shu is over now. You can choose what kind of compensation you want. Don't let me see things like today again in the future."
The calm attitude and tone of voice that did not allow for criticism were solid positive information, almost a warning.
Wen Jinnian sat up, threw away the phone casually, and said with a faint smile: "Brother Jingmo, you are too concerned about her. She is just a lover bought from others."
"Those are my people too, not some wild dogs or cats on the roadside." Zhou Jingmo looked at him indifferently.
Wen Jinnian stopped smiling and looked at him for a moment.
"It's interesting, both of them are attracted by her."
The other person involved in his conversation lowered his head and said nothing. Qi Zhou looked left and right, clicked his tongue, and scratched his head in worry.
"Maybe there will be news later. She has to find a place to sleep, right? I think she used to eat and sleep every day. Now she is used to staying in the villa. She probably can't bear to hide outside and suffer all the time."
Zhou Jingmo: "I have asked all the surrounding hotels to set up surveillance cameras."
As long as Yunshu appears in any hotel, she will be found immediately.
But there is no news so far. Where is she?
…
Apartments on Yuanqing Road.
Time goes back to nine o'clock.
Yun Shu had already had dinner, which was a pizza delivery.
When Assistant Lin ordered the takeout, he specifically asked her to choose it herself. After finishing the takeout, Assistant Lin retired and left, leaving only Yun Shu and Gu Xingze in the apartment.
The pizza tastes good, and Yun Shu likes it quite a lot. She eats it in small bites and occasionally takes a sip of coconut milk.
Gu Xingze sat next to him and ate another flavor and gave her a piece.
There is no formal square dining table in his apartment, but a bar extending from the connection between the kitchen and living room.
The marble countertop is cool and smooth, but there is an inlaid electric ceramic stove in the middle, and the black microcrystalline panel can reflect the human figure.
Yun Shu looked at it while eating and asked him: "What is this?"
"The electric ceramic stove can heat your coconut milk."
She put the coconut milk cup on it, and Gu Xingze seemed to expect that she would do this, and clicked on the panel a few times in response.
The panel made a beeping sound, lit up a circle of red dots, and began to heat.
When the cup started to steam, Gu Xingze took the cup back to her and turned off the electric ceramic stove.
Yun Shu took a sip of the heated coconut juice and pursed her lips: "It doesn't taste as good as before."
Gu Xingze covered his smile with his hand: "Then let's drink the unheated one over there. Are you full?"
"No," she said honestly, "this is not enough."
"Then order more." He put the phone in front of her and turned to face her.
The high stool they were sitting on was a bit high for Yun Shu.
But it really fits the height of the bar and Gu Xingze's height. Sitting on it, his legs can directly touch the ground, with one leg bent on the horizontal bar at the bottom. His posture is very calm and comfortable.
A black shirt was connected to black trousers. From the opening of the shirt downwards, it seemed like there were legs all the way down. The length of her legs that had just stepped on the horizontal bar was not enough to be seen.
The takeaway on her phone was right in front of her, but she took a second look at his legs.
