When Fang Yuanyuan was footing the bill, Xiang Wan was calling Tang Yuanchu along the corridor, asking if he had news of Bai Muchuan.
To her disappointment, however, the answer to her question was negative. After that, she asked Tang Yuanchu to ask the other detectives. But they were all preoccupied with the tasks assigned by Bai Muchuan about Mao Guigui's case. They had not even knocked off from work. Xie Hui said that he had tried to contact Bai Muchuan to report the progress of work but was unable to get ahold of him.
The police force had regulations that during the handling of cases, no police officers were allowed to turn off their mobile phones unless they had a valid reason to do so.
So, does that mean Bai Muchuan has vanished from the world? She thought.
Nope. Rather, they'd lost contact of him.
… The last person who had lost contact was Jia An, but he should still be alive.
