Chapter 47

"Tea...wait, I'll make you a cup of tea."

Tian Youchun bent down and groped under the table. Maybe because he seldom came back, he was not very clear about the placement of some things.

In China, when someone comes to visit, the host needs to make tea to entertain the guest. This is a matter of etiquette.

"Don't bother, uncle. Just tell me about your daughter. Finding your daughter is the most important thing."

Li Qing stopped Tian Youchun from looking for tea. He didn't come here to drink tea today, but for business.

Come for that [Letter from King Proetos]!

"Yep."

Tian Youchun put away his smile, returning to his initial haggard expression, and spoke while looking directly at Li Qing.

"I remember you said you were the director of some documentary?"

"Yeah." Li Qing nodded. "'Blind Heart', if nothing unexpected happens, that's the name of the movie or documentary."

"So, do you have anything to ask?"

Li Qing was silent for a while.

"It doesn't matter. I don't know how many times I've said this." Tian Youchun seemed to have let it go, but the sadness in his eyes said it all.

"Well, I want to know in detail... the whole process of Senior Sister Tian Yunyi's disappearance."

Li Qing did not hesitate too much, but went straight to the point.

Yes, one of the purposes of Li Qing's coming here was to learn more about the circumstances of Tian Yunyi's disappearance. After excluding the police, the people who knew the most about the matter could only be her family.

It was also to open that letter.

"Senior?"

"I'm a freshman at Yamashiro University, but I haven't registered yet."

"Oh, it's fate, it's all fate." Tian Youchun said reluctantly, "It's great, it's great."

Afterwards, Tian Youchun took a deep puff of cigarette and once again repeated the information he had engraved in his mind.

Shortly after the summer vacation began, Tian Yunyi looked for a summer job. As it was too inconvenient to travel to the urban village and the fare was more expensive, and there were cheaper shared dormitories near the factory, a total of four girls, including the missing Tian Yunyi, shared the dormitory.

However, since the white-haired old woman, Tian Yunyi's grandmother, still lives in Baishicheng Village, Tian Yunyi often returns to her hometown on Sundays to accompany the old woman for a while and clean the house at the same time.

When she disappeared, it was the time when Tian Yunyi usually went home to visit the white-haired old man, so her roommates did not pay much attention to it.

Just when Tian Yunyi was leaving, one of them, let's call her roommate A for now, who had just come back from outside, saw two ordinary-looking men, nothing special about them, waiting for Tian Yunyi downstairs of the shared building.

According to A, their car was an ordinary Volkswagen van, which was a bit old.

It had been three days since I called the police, so I couldn't remember the license plate and other details.

This was something that had never happened before, and it was indeed a bit strange. Because she was reluctant to spend money on taxis, Tian Yunyi usually walked several kilometers to the bus station, took the bus from several stations and went home.

However, because she was not clear about Tian Yunyi's family situation, A mistakenly thought that Tian Yunyi's family was free today and came to pick her up. When A went upstairs, she had a brief conversation with Tian Yunyi, but because they were in a hurry and one of the two ordinary men shouted at her, they did not communicate for long.

A could not remember the specific content, and could only reluctantly say roughly the same words afterwards.

A (smiling and joking): Yunyi, you are so filial. You go home every week to take care of your grandma.

Tian Yunyi (smiled embarrassedly. According to A, there was no obvious difference in her demeanor, expression and language from the past, so there should be no possibility of conveying any information to A): Almost. I don’t want my grandma to get used to being alone at home.

One of the ordinary men (shouting to Tian Yunyi beside the car): Let’s go, hurry up.

That was about it. Perhaps because we saw each other often and someone urged us to do so, the conversation ended there.

In this regard, the police psychological profiler speculated that Tian Yunyi herself was aware of being picked up by an ordinary man and had no intention of resisting. She went there voluntarily for unknown reasons, did not convey any suggestive information when she met A by chance, and she believed that this unknown pick-up was short-lived.

In her heart, she believed that she could return to Baishicheng Village on time and meet the white-haired old man.

A was not clear about what happened afterwards. He waited until working hours on Monday, but Tian Yunyi neither resigned nor asked for leave, but she still did not come to work.

Person A, who was her roommate, was naturally the first to be found. They learned that the supervisor had not been able to get through to Tian Yunyi since that morning.

This is the first time we have noticed Tian Yunyi's loss of contact, and the specific time can definitely be moved forward.

Several people were unable to get through to Tian Yunyi's phone, and the phone kept saying the call could not be connected.

Jia finally felt a little panicked at this moment, and she realized belatedly that something was wrong.

In their impression, Tian Yunyi is never the kind of person who would be late or even absent from work. She is very well-behaved and can be said to be very honest.

He doesn't smoke or drink, and never goes to bars with other workers to relax and have fun.

She is a true good girl, and no one would believe that she would lose contact on purpose.

Then, A suddenly remembered that Tian Yunyi said that she was going home to visit her grandmother. If that was the case, wouldn't it be possible to reveal the truth if he called her grandmother, the white-haired old woman?

We only need to prove that Tian Yunyi went home. If the call cannot be connected, it may be that her cell phone bill is unpaid and she forgot to pay it. If she did not come to work, it can be said that she was suddenly delayed by other things.

In short, everything is fine.

Through his supervisor, A obtained the contact number of Tian Yunyi's family that she left when she joined the company, and successfully contacted her grandmother.

And with this connection, a horrible fact came to light.

The white-haired old woman did not pick up her granddaughter. Although she wondered why her granddaughter Tian Yunyi did not come home this week, she remembered that she had previously told Tian Yunyi not to waste her time on her.

Sometimes you can also manage your own time and go out shopping, drinking milk tea, buying clothes, etc. with your roommates. By the way, you can see if there are any boys you like and bring them back for her to judge, so as to avoid meeting guys who are not doing their job properly.

The white-haired old man thought that her precious granddaughter Tian Yunyi had finally come to her senses, so she was a little happy at first.

She specifically asked the son of a neighbor who knew how to use WeChat to transfer 300 yuan to Tian Yunyi in exchange for cash. Since they were all neighbors, in order to take care of the elderly, Tian Yunyi also added the WeChat of a young man who came home from time to time, so that they could contact each other and visit each other.

Later, the police checked the messages and found that the transferred money was collected after a period of time, but a voice message was sent by Tian Yunyi's grandmother.

But I haven't received a reply yet...
