It has been almost a month since she worked at the 4D Research Institute, and as the work gradually got on the right track, Zhong Caini's whole body and mind were almost devoted to it. Even, I didn't even have time to think about Wu Ming.

Only occasionally in the dead of night when it is difficult to sleep, I will lie in bed alone and think silently for a while. For example, today, at the wine table, his father Zhong Rui's performance of wanting to match himself with Qi Zhibin was even more obvious, and even Qi Zhibin and Song Jin sisters were aware of it. So much so that Zhong Caini inevitably felt a little embarrassed. It is precisely because of this that Zhong Caini's heart was aroused again. Especially since today is the weekend, Zhong Caini is not in a hurry to sleep.

Knowing Wu Ming's special identity, it is inconvenient to contact him at any time. also knew that Wu Ming didn't want to further develop with himself because he didn't want to affect himself, and coupled with the attitude of his parents, he deliberately avoided himself. But for Zhong Caini, who is already deeply involved, she neither wants nor can give up this relationship.

Lying on the bed and hesitating for a while, he finally sent a message to Wu Ming, who had not been in touch for a long time. The content is very short, with only three words: "Are you there".

But she couldn't receive Wu Ming's reply, and Zhong Caini didn't believe that Wu Ming would go to bed just after ten o'clock.

Could it be that you are performing a task that is inconvenient to reply?

I can't help but let Zhong Caini think like this. Because except for the last time when he came to visit him at home at the appointed time, after his mother did not open the door for him, he immediately called Wu Ming and did not answer, Wu Ming would not answer his phone or reply to his messages at other times.

After waiting for a while, I still couldn't help but want to give it a try. Looking at Wu Ming's number in the mobile phone, he hesitated for a few minutes again, and finally pressed the dial button. However, when she heard the prompt tone of "the phone you dialed is not in the service area" suddenly came out of her mobile phone, Zhong Caini suddenly became a little uneasy.

How is this possible?

Is there any place in the country where you can't receive a mobile signal? Unless it's in the mountains and forests in remote areas. What did Wu Ming do in that kind of place? Based on Zhong Caini's judgment of Wu Ming's identity, he should not have appeared in such a place. Unless it is to arrest drug dealers or fugitives, it is the job of the anti-narcotics police and the general police.

For a while, Zhong Caini's heart was filled with worries about Wu Ming's personal safety. While thinking about the bits and pieces since his relationship with Wu Ming in his heart, he called Wu Ming's mobile phone every about half an hour. Unconsciously, Zhong Caini sat against the head of the bed for most of the night. It wasn't until more than three o'clock in the morning that I closed my eyes and slept for less than three hours because I was really tired.

Before six o'clock, I got up quickly as soon as it was dawn. I dialed Wu Ming's mobile phone again, but the result was still a prompt tone of "not in the service area", so after hurriedly washing, I said hello to my parents and was about to go out.

"Nini, what are you doing out so early?"

"Mom, I don't do anything, I just want to walk around. ”

"In a while, I'll go with you when I'm done with breakfast. ”

"No, I'm going out to eat. ”

Although they guessed that their daughter's unexpected move today was due to Wu Ming, no one from Jin Xiaoying and Zhong Rui, who knew their daughter's character, said anything.

Zhong Rui just frowned and said, "Bring Xiao Chen and Xiao Sui." ”

"Dad, I'm just going out for a casual walk. ”

"Then take both of them with you. ”

Zhong Caini didn't say anything more. However, as soon as she put on a coat and picked up her handbag and walked into the courtyard, the two bodyguards who had been escorting him to and from work, Chen Feng and Sui Liguo, had already started the car.

This time, Zhong Caini did not get into the car of the two of them, but got into her own red sports car that she hadn't driven for a long time.

"Nini, it's cold outside, raise the carport. ”

Raising the carport casually, Zhong Caini suddenly realized that she hadn't driven this car for almost two months. Slowly drove out of the gate of the villa, stepped on the accelerator and went down, and the red sports car "woo" left Chen Feng and Sui Liguo's cars behind him far away.

In less than fifteen minutes, Zhong Caini had already arrived at Wu Ming's community. Although he knew that Wu Ming was not at home, otherwise he would not have heard the prompt sound of "not in the service area" when he dialed his mobile phone, but it was unrealistic not to come and see it in person.

Pedaling and trotting to the third floor, Zhong Caini, who was slightly panting, raised her hand and was about to knock on the door, but the door was opened from the inside.

Because she decided that Wu Ming was not at home, Zhong Caini subconsciously took two steps back one after another. When he saw the person who appeared at the door of the room, he couldn't help but cry out in surprise: "Sister Wu Xin, why are you?!"

"Sister-in-law...... Sister Caini?"

Wu Xin was also a little surprised, he couldn't have imagined that the relationship between Zhong Caini and her brother had developed to such an extent.

It's no wonder that Wu Xin misunderstood, if the two were just high school classmates, or ordinary boyfriend and girlfriend relationships, what kind of truth would Zhong Caini a girl would not come to the door so early in the morning. Unless it was an appointment made by the two in advance, Wu Xin knew very well that Wu Ming had gone abroad on a mission since he was discharged from the hospital, and he never came back at all. Could it be that my brother also called Zhong Caini yesterday? No, if that's the case, won't you tell her that I'm at home?

It's not that she didn't hear the word "sister-in-law" blurted out of Wu Xin's mouth, but Zhong Caini didn't have any other thoughts at this time. hurriedly stepped forward and took Wu Xin's hand, first looked at it carefully, and saw that Wu Xin's complexion was relatively normal, so he asked politely: "When were you discharged from the hospital?"

"I was discharged from the hospital a few days after the holiday. Speaking of which, I should really thank Sister Caini. If it weren't for Sister Caini, I would not have been discharged from the hospital so soon. ”

"Look at what you said, I didn't do anything. ”

"Sister Caini, don't stand at the door, come in and talk. ”

walked in behind Wu Xin, quickly glanced around, and then sat down on the sofa and asked, "Is there something wrong with you going out so early?"

"My brother is coming back today, and I want to go to the morning market to buy some food. ”

"Wu Ming is coming back?"

"What, didn't my brother tell Sister Caini?"

Hearing Zhong Caini's words, Wu Xin was sure that her brother didn't tell her about coming back, so she inevitably had doubts. Since her brother didn't tell Zhong Caini, she came here early in the morning to do something.

"When did Wu Ming tell you?"

"It was six o'clock yesterday afternoon. What's wrong, Sister Caini?"

"Did Wu Ming call you on his own mobile phone?" Seeing Wu Xin nodded, Zhong Caini asked eagerly, "Did you call your brother later?"

"Sister Caini, what's wrong? Is something wrong with my brother?"

Wu Xin, who was nervous by Zhong Caini's anxious tone, hurriedly picked up the phone and dialed Wu Ming.

"Sorry, the number you are calling is not in the service area, please call again later. ”

"Sister Caini, how is this possible? Even if my brother is on the plane now, he can only turn off the plane, how can he not be in the service area?"

"I started at 10 o'clock last night and called again until half an hour ago, and the result was always a 'not in the service area' tone. That's why I wanted to come and check it out. ”

"Sister Caini, my brother won't ....... ”

"Don't be foolish, what can happen to your brother's skill? Maybe you're on a mission and you've entered an area where there's no mobile signal. ”

"But my brother told me yesterday afternoon that he would be back this morning. ”

Originally, she said what she said just now to comfort Wu Xin, but when she heard Wu Xin say this, Zhong Caini suddenly stood up from the sofa nervously.

"Did Wu Ming say what time he would come back, and where were the others at that time?"

"He didn't say it, and I never asked. ”

"Don't worry. Zhong Caini took Wu Xin's hand and said to her tentatively: "Maybe someone can know where Wu Ming is now." ”

"Who?" Wu Xin, who was reminded by Zhong Caini, also thought of it immediately. "Sister Caini refers to Sister Lin Jia?"

Zhong Caini nodded and asked, "Do you have her phone?"

"Yes. Sister Caini, wait a minute. ”

As he spoke, Wu Xin dialed Lin Jia's mobile phone without hesitation.
