Seven

Two days later, Yuan Bin called again.

"How? Found them? Dmitry asked.

"Sunset found it, he lives in City C, not far from us, and I asked for the specific address, and it only takes more than four hours to get there by car. And, I also asked for his mobile phone number. ”

"Did you hit it?"

"I did, but I don't know if he changed the phone. I called several times but no one answered, and I thought, we can only go to his house to find him in person, hoping that he hasn't moved. ”

"What about Li Yuan?"

"Li Yuan is a little strange, I called my former classmates and teachers, but no one has any contact with him, and I don't know where he is now."

Dread thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go find Sunset first, maybe he knows Li Yuan's whereabouts?" ”

"Okay, when will we go?"

"It's okay now, I'm idle anyway."

"Okay, I'll go to the unit to ask for annual leave right now, and we'll go to City C in a while."

"Once you're done, go straight to the North Gate Station. We'll meet there in two hours, okay? ”

"Okay, goodbye." Yuan Bin hung up the phone.

Two hours later, Dmitry met Yuan Bin at the station on time. The two boarded a bus to City C.

Sitting in a spacious, comfortable, air-conditioned car, Med and Yuan Bin looked through the window at the scenery along the way β€” a relatively unfamiliar road that neither of them ever went to City C.

By the time the car arrived at its destination, it was already seven o'clock in the evening. After getting off the train, Mmet and Yuan Bin went to a Western-style fast food restaurant near the station. After sitting down, Dmitry looked at his watch and said to the waiter, "We can only stay here for 25 minutes." Ask for two bottles of sparkling wine, steak of beef cakes, broth and baked potatoes. ”

The waiter hurried away.

Med and Yuan Bin were silent and touched their glasses. While eating, Yuan Bin took out a piece of paper from his clothes pocket: "Sunset's family lives in the Yingyuan Community on Jiangyang Road. Don't know if it's far from here? ”

Dmitry shrugged: "Let's talk about it after eating." ”

Walking out of the hotel, Yuan Bin raised his hand and beckoned a taxi and asked, "How long does it take to get to Yingyuan Community on Jiangyang Road?" ”

"About twenty minutes." The driver replied.

Yuan Bin glanced back at Med, and the two got into the taxi.

When it was close to eight o'clock, the two of them stood in front of the third building in the Yingyuan community.

Yuan Bin looked at the piece of paper again and said, "Sunset lives on the eighth floor, let's go up." ”

When he arrived at the door of room 802, Yuan Bin rang the doorbell on the door.

Ten seconds later, the door slowly opened 45 degrees, and a young lady stood in the doorway looking at Mei and Yuan Bin with a little doubt.

"Who are you looking for?" She asked.

"Is this Sunset's home?" Yuan Bin asked.

She nodded: "Yes, I am his wife Zheng Jie, you are ......"

"We are Sunset's old classmates, my name is Yuan Bin, and his name is Med. Sunset recognized us as soon as she saw us. Yuan Bin said with a smile.

"Oh, please come in and sit." Zheng Jie smiled and opened the door of the house and welcomed the guests into the house.

Zheng Jie made two cups of tea for them, put them on the coffee table, and then sat on the sofa opposite them.

Under the bright light of the living room, Mmet began to look at the young woman in front of her: Zheng Jie was slender and calm, wearing a high-end light gray light silk skirt, revealing the lines of her body. A white square scarf was casually tied around her neck, showing her elegant taste. Dmitry marvels at how Sunset has found such a beautiful wife.

"It's not a coincidence." Zheng Jie said with regret, "Sunset is not at home right now. Do you have anything to do with him? ”

"No, it doesn't matter." Yuan Bin said, "It's just that the old classmates haven't seen each other for a long time and want to get together together." ”

"Where's Sunset?" Dmitry asked.

"He left home yesterday afternoon, saying he was going to the factory to deal with something, but he didn't come back in the evening. I didn't pay much attention to it, because it was not uncommon for him to stay in the factory and work overtime all night - you see, he hasn't come back yet. ”

"In the factory?" Dmitry asked, "What plant?" ”

"It's a small factory he opened to produce medical devices. The workers in the factory sometimes make mistakes, and as the factory manager, he always takes care of it himself. ”

Dmitry looked at his watch: "He hasn't been home for more than 20 hours, why don't you call him?" ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Jie frowned: "Speaking of which, it's really a little strange, I called him twice, but he didn't answer." Originally, I wondered if he was too busy to answer the phone...... However, it is impossible that you have not been able to return a call to me until now, right? ”

"By the way, I also called him several times, but he didn't answer. I thought he had changed the phone! Yuan Bin said.

Hearing Yuan Bin say this, Zheng Jie became a little anxious: "What the hell is going on with him!" Why don't anyone answer their calls? ”

"Did he do that when he was busy?" Dmitry asked.

"No, he never did. No matter how busy he was, he wouldn't be able to answer the phone at the time, and he would call after a while. ”

"That's a little weird." Med said, he turned around and exchanged glances with Yuan Bin.

"Is that factory far away from your home?" Yuan Bin asked.

"It's not far, it's only a 10-minute walk."

"Or," said Dmiday, "let's go to the factory together?" ”

Zheng Jie seemed to have found a savior, and nodded again and again: "I think so too." ”

Dmitry stood up: "Let's go now!" ”

More than ten minutes later, the three of them came to this small factory built on the outskirts of the city. At this time, it was already dark, and the factory looked empty.

Zheng Jie walked to the guard's room, knocked on the window, and an old man who was watching TV turned his head and saw that it was Zheng Jie, and immediately walked over.

"Lao He, where is the factory director? Not in it? Zheng Jie asked.

"Ah, the factory director...... He was here yesterday afternoon, but he didn't come today. ”

"What? He didn't come today? Zheng Jie was a little panicked, "You mean, he left here yesterday?" ”

"Hmm...... I didn't see him leave. Lao He said with some embarrassment, "But I don't think he will stay here alone for the night, right?" ”

"Didn't he stay in the office for the night sometimes?"

"It was when the factory worked overtime, but I didn't work overtime yesterday."

Zheng Jie was stunned in place, revealing an incredible expression: "Then he's ...... Where did he go......"

Medder and Yuan Bin glanced at each other and frowned separately. Mmet stepped forward and said to Zheng Jie, "Anyway, we're all here, let's go to his office and have a look, maybe he's in there?" ”

Zheng Jie bit her lip and nodded mechanically.

The factory director's office was on the corner of the second floor, and the three of them quickly arrived at the door. Zheng Jie saw that the door was closed, and it was dark inside, and shook her head: "He's not inside." ”

Yuan Bin stepped forward and knocked on the door without giving up, but there was no response.

"Can you believe it? He'd never done that before - never disappeared for a day or two without telling me any of his whereabouts! Zheng Jie said anxiously.

"Try calling his phone again." Yuan Bin reminded.

Zheng Jie quickly took out her mobile phone from her purse and dialed Sunset's number.

Suddenly, a slight cell phone ringtone rang from near them, and several people were stunned at the same time.

"It's ...... Sunset's ringtone! Zheng Jie shouted, and then immediately turned around.

She frozeβ€”the flickering bell came from the factory director's office.

"Sunset! He's in there? But why didn't he open the door? Zheng Jie said confusedly.

For a moment, a thought crossed Dmide's mind. He was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to Yuan Bin and shouted, "Something happened to Sunset!" ”

Yuan Bin seemed to be taken aback, standing in place at a loss.

"Quick, knock the door open!" Dmitry rushed to the door and shouted at Yuan Bin.

Yuan Bin was stunned for a second, and then quickly rushed to the door. The two of them slammed into the wooden door with all their strength.

After several violent bangs, the door was finally slammed open with a loud bang. Mei De and Yuan Bin couldn't hold back their strength, and the two fell into the room together.

Dmitry got up from the ground in embarrassment, and as soon as he looked up, the sight in front of him almost terrified himβ€”

On the side of the room, the corpse of a man hung from the beam, his eyes rolled and his tongue sticking out of his mouthβ€”long dead.

Yuan Bin: "Ah! The earth screamed, and his soul flew away.

Zheng Jie rushed in from outside the house, and when she saw Sunset's hanging body, she barely had time to scream, and she passed out.

Med hurriedly helped her up and shouted at Yuan Bin, who was stupid, "Call the police...... Also, call the emergency services! ”
