Little Floss must have been famished as well, as she had overturned the bag of cat food. The cat food was scattered all over the floor, and a lot of feces had accumulated in the cat litter box.
The signs in the house indicated that Quan Meng had not returned home for a long time.
What was going on? Huo Ling's brows furrowed tightly. He could understand that Quan Meng was traumatized by what had happened before, but she was not even coming home now!
Huo Ling took out his phone and called Quan Meng, but it was Aunt Yun who answered.
"Hello, Master. You've finally called!" Aunt Yun's voice sounded particularly anxious.
"Where's Quan Meng? Why is her phone with you?" Huo Ling asked.
"Madam was kidnapped by the Quan family. It's my fault. I'm sorry, Sir."
Kidnapped again!
Huo Ling did not even realize that his hand was gripping his phone tightly. "When? Where? Has she been found? "
"It was at the entrance of the hospital the day she was discharged. I haven't found her yet because I can't access the Quan family's surveillance cameras."
Huo Ling ended the phone call, picked up the keys, and headed straight for the Quan family's residence. He also called Yu Yan along.
After all, they were in City B now, and Yu Yan's words carried more weight than his over here.
"Where is she?" Ignoring the security guards, Yu Yan drove straight into the house.
Huo Ling sat in the back seat of the car, looking at the hypocritical Quan family in front of him with a grim expression.
The Quan family was initially angry that someone had barged in so brazenly, but their attitude immediately changed 180 degrees when they saw that it was Yu Yan.
Quan Xiu played dumb and said, "Who are you referring to? Young Master Yu, your words are so cryptic. I can't guess your meaning at all."
"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. I'm asking you, where's the Quan Meng?" Yu Yan kicked the coffee table, causing Quan Yi to cry in fear.
Quan Xiu was so scared that his legs started to shake, but he still forced himself to say that he didn't know.
Yu Yan's subordinate ran over and said that he had already obtained the surveillance video. Three days ago, which was the day that Quan Meng disappeared, a van returned to the Quan family's residence from the suburbs. Only three family members got out of the van.
"Very good. You can all wait to go to jail!" Huo Ling's voice was as cold as ice. Following that, he turned around and got into the car.
Yu Yan also glared at the few people before following Huo Ling into the car.
"What do we do next?" Yu Yan asked Huo Ling as they drove.
"Call the police and get a doctor to come with us." Huo Ling massaged the spot between his eyebrows. The high-intensity work had already exhausted him. In addition to attending to these matters concerning Quan Meng, he had not had a good rest in a long time.
"Alright." Yu Yan looked at Huo Ling via the rearview mirror. "Why don't you take a nap first? After all, it's still a long way to the suburbs from here."
Huo Ling didn't reply and only told him to focus on driving.
Quan Meng didn't know how many days she had been locked up. It was just that once in a while, someone would send in some water and food, even though the water was full of dust and the food had turned bad.
The hut was very enclosed and had no light. There was only some old wooden furniture, which would make a squeaking sound when touched.
Without a blanket or a change of clothes, Quan Meng's body, which had not eaten for a long time, could no longer support her standing or sitting.
She felt that her lips were dry and cracked, and her body was extremely cold. It seemed that she had almost become one with the wooden bed under her. Her body was covered in grime, and she didn't even have the strength to turn over.
In the beginning, she couldn't accept it and tried all means to get out, but it was in vain.
After a few hours of driving, Huo Ling and the others finally arrived at the Quan family's old house.
Huo Ling kicked open the tightly closed door. The old woman, who had received notice from the Quan family, was waiting at the door, but she did not expect such a big group of people.
"Who… who are you guys?" The old woman wrapped herself tightly in her cotton-padded jacket. The suburbs were still a little cold in the evening.
"Where's Quan Meng?" Huo Ling glared down at the old woman from above. His eyes were so chilly that it seemed they could kill.
"Who is Quan Meng? I… I don't know." That old woman had never encountered such a situation before. She was so scared that she can't even speak clearly.
"You don't know?" Huo Ling gave a scornful laugh. "This is the Quan family's old mansion. You're their caretaker. How could you not know the second daughter of the family?"
