Xing Ling knew the password and went in after opening the door, only to see the cat's bowl, but no sign of the cat after looking around.
"The cat really must have run outside," Zhou Rui said.
Just as they were about to leave, they heard the sound of a car engine at the door; Meng Jilin had arrived.
Seeing the people inside, he was surprised, "Why are you all here? Are you helping me look for the cat?"
"Chen Xindian is helping you look for the cat, but he hasn't returned until now, so we came to check," Zhou Rui said.
Meng Jilin was also taken aback, "Did you call him?"
"No answer," Xing Ling said.
"Then let's search nearby; he shouldn't have gone far," Meng Jilin suggested.
Xing Ling and Zhou Rui thought the same and then the three of them started searching around the villa.
Behind the villa was a small grove where, according to Meng Jilin, Niannian often ran into.
Thinking that Chen Xindian might have gone that way, they headed to the grove.
