Chapter 12: The Disappearance (I)

Bell bell, shrill alarm rang again at an inopportune time.

It was still five o'clock in the morning, still outside the window in autumn colors, still woken up in my sleep, I scolded secretly, and reluctantly touched the phone.

I thought to myself that this is not far from the plateau, and I have already thought about how to scold him in advance, and when I glanced at the phone screen, I found that it was really as I thought.

The caller ID is an unknown caller, but the place of ownership is still Shandong Shouguang, Shouguang I also know a plateau, and I still use this kind of little trick, who else can he be?

"You bastard is calling again at this time." I took the phone and cleared my throat, I just woke up and my throat was still smoking. "You make an appointment yourself, what are you going to do with the honest report to me?"

"Woohoo." A sobbing sound immediately came from the other end. It was a weak female voice, and this sobbing voice seemed to have suffered an unbearable grievance

I didn't feel sleepy, I just felt cold, I answered the phone early in the morning, but found that there was a woman crying on the other side, no matter who touched this kind of thing, it would probably be confused.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?" I softened my tone and silently walked to the living room and closed the bedroom door.

"Excuse me, are you Liu Quan?" The girl finally spoke, but she still couldn't cry, and there were intermittent conversations. "The owner of the Grass and Trees Tea House."

"Yes, I am, may I ask who you are?"

Her voice was familiar, "I...... My name is Zhang Xiaoyan, and I am the wife of your college roommate Gao Yuan, and I met you at the wedding. ”

It turned out to be his wife Xiaoyan, I naturally know, the only daughter of the owner of Shouguang Vegetable Export Company, the little princess born with a golden key, the childhood sweetheart of the plateau, and the most sorry person in the plateau in my eyes.

"Oh, it's my sister-in-law. What's going on? "I said in my mouth, secretly calculating in my heart, eighty percent of the cheating on the plateau was completely exposed, and she is now going to ask her husband's accomplice Xingshi for the crime." How did you call so early. ”

"Do you know where the plateau goes? I couldn't find him. Xiaoya hurriedly replied, as if she was afraid that I would hang up the phone suddenly.

As I expected, Gao Yuan must have not returned all night, lingering with his new lover, I scolded him a thousand times in my heart, but I still want to give my friend a round. "Oh, I really don't know about this, it should be that I'm busy at work, Gao Yuan is honest, what else will he do besides work?"

"You! Don't lie to me. The girl unconsciously raised her voice, and her voice became trembling. The plateau is missing. ”

"Missing? Sister-in-law, don't worry, how could such a big person on the plateau go missing? "I suddenly remembered that Gao Yuan had said in the car that he would take Hu Tao to investigate in other places, could it be that he was impatient and said goodbye." Sister-in-law, did he go on a business trip and just didn't tell you? ”

In fact, when I said this, I denied this assumption, although Gao Yuan is indulgent, he still has the most basic moderation, and now the company is still his father-in-law's, he has no reason to tear his face and directly derail directly. Even if he was out hanging out with his lover, he would definitely come home in the morning, even if it was just to hide his eyes.

He ...... He's been gone for three days, hasn't been home for three days, and hasn't called me a single time. I went to the company to look for him on the first day he disappeared, and there was no trace of him in the company. The more Xiaoyan spoke, the more panicked she became, and her tone became hurried. He couldn't have traveled on a business trip, and if he had been on a business trip, the company would have recorded it, but no one in the entire company knew where he had gone. ”

Three days! Three days ago, Gao Yuan had triumphantly called me to share his good news, and wanted to bathe the rain clouds with Hu Tao, and that was after that phone call. I realized the seriousness of the problem, three days is not a short time, especially for the boss of a company, I am afraid this is not just cheating.

"Sister-in-law, don't panic, don't panic. Let me think again. ”

"I know he asked you to come to the company a few days ago to do him a business favor, and you should be the last person to see him, so I want to ...... Please come and help me. You must help me. ”

This kind of thing happened to Gao Yuan, or after separating from me, even if she didn't ask me, I couldn't ignore it. "Sister-in-law, I'll rush over today, don't panic first, you must calm down. I don't think I should call the police and ask the police to help me search. ”

"I didn't dare call the police. I...... I really didn't dare call the police. As if surprised, Xiaoyan suddenly twitched violently. My dad and my third uncle also disappeared two weeks ago, and the police were asked to help find them, but they didn't want to ignore us. My dad, my third uncle, and my husband have disappeared one after another, and I'm really scared...... I...... It's really scary. ”

Only then did I remember that Gao Yuan had told me that his father-in-law had disappeared, and the company had blamed him. At first, I thought it was his father-in-law who went out on an expedition, but now even the plateau is missing, so I can't help but connect the two.

Could it be that there really is an even more unspeakable secret to this series of disappearances?

Then Xiaoyan's voice suddenly sounded on the other end again.

Another reason why I didn't dare to call the police was ...... "Through time and space, I seem to be able to see her tears raining down." I'm afraid of hurting his reputation. ”

This sentence really made me feel like a thorn in my back, and I was shocked into a cold sweat. "You already knew him ......"

"I ...... I had known for a long time that he had someone outside, so I was afraid that he had forgotten to come home because he was with another woman, and what would he do if the police did find him from his lover. I'm sorry I ......."

Before the words were finished, I felt that Xiaoyan's whole person had completely collapsed, and I guess I didn't want to see her gaffe, so she simply hung up the phone.

Doodoo ...... The sound of wire breaking stung my eardrums like a death knell.

I now feel that I deserve it, and I still pretend to be smart and think that it is orderly to keep several lovers at the same time, but I don't know that his wife has long known his every move, but she doesn't want to pierce it, which is the tolerance and wisdom unique to women. But what I was even more touched by was that Gao Yuan treated her like this, she was still thinking about Gao Yuan at all times, and she was afraid of damaging Gao Yuan's reputation. At this moment, I feel that she is pitiful and ridiculous, what reputation does Gao Yuan have, his romantic image has long been ingrained in the hearts of the people around him.

Xiaoyan, how stupid are you?

How much do you love him to do this?

I glanced helplessly out the window, the leaves were falling, the sun was dim, and the north wind was so cold.
