Chapter 44 The Missing Girl
On the wet street, passing vehicles splashed muddy snow.

Outside the brightly lit ballroom, there was a row of officers and soldiers holding long guns.

The person who got out of the car stepped on the muddy ground with a pair of shiny military boots.

"Isn't this the young master of the Fu family and young master Fang?" Chen Fu stepped forward and glanced at the two of them, the smile in his eyes easily showed treachery.

Fang Jing sneered and said, "What? Is it because I beat you a little bit last time?"

Chen Fu paused, collected himself, and then looked back sharply.

"Master Fang, Commander Zhang personally ordered this time, you have to go if you don't!"

Fu Yuanxiu watched coldly, but suddenly stepped forward, looking up and down Chen Fu impatiently.

"Who killed someone, Zhang Qi knows in his heart." He looked down and warned in a cold voice, "Let him stop bothering me, otherwise it's not impossible."

Chen Fu was also stubborn, and said directly: "Commander Zhang didn't intend to end like this." He glanced at the people behind him, "Take it away!"

A group of officers and soldiers immediately detained the two.

"Chen Fu, you'd better not let me come out alive again." Fang Jing seemed to be no longer afraid after the experience last time, "Otherwise you will suffer."

A group of people hurriedly left the market while being watched.

On the other side, the car that just came back from the supervisory building stopped at the Nanting mansion.

A tall figure in military uniform walked into the wind and snow, and then hid in the door.

The butler was the first to tell Gu Zhi about the matter.

But Gu Zhi only nodded in response, and then followed Duan Yan'an.

As soon as he entered the door, he took off the outer cloak first, and entered the study.

"Young commander, what about Master Fu?"

"Yuanxiu is impulsive, but he won't kill people. Find out first." He suddenly paused, then turned around and asked, "Is there Fang Jing?"

"Yes."

Duan Yan'an raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Then don't worry, Fang Shilin won't let Zhang Qi do it."

Gu Zhi took the order and left the study.

Duan Yan'an sat down to see the practiced words on the case.

The words written on the paper were very similar to his own handwriting except for the strength and stroke of the pen.

"Have I not forgotten?"

She leaned against him from behind, her chin still resting on his shoulder, her hands wrapped around his neck, covered in the fox fur at the cuffs, the soft fox fur gently brushed his chin, especially warm.

Duan Yan'an only turned her head slightly, and the pinna of her ear touched the tip of her delicate and slightly cool nose.

"I haven't forgotten, but why did you practice according to my words?" He stretched out his hand and swept the snow from her neckline.

Jiang Ci responded logically: "Then I have only learned what you taught."

"No one said, doesn't your handwriting look like it was written by a girl's family?"

The smile in his eyes seems to have absorbed the softness of the whole spring day.

"Yes... many people have said it."

She also smiled.

Duan Yan'an turned his head back, but took the hand in front of him into his palm.

"Wanwan wrote very well."

No one's affirmation would satisfy her more than him, so the smile in those golden eyes was extremely vivid and bright.

No matter when, when she was with Duan Yan'an, she always felt like she was back in that small courtyard.

There, even though she couldn't see everything outside the wall, she was familiar with every part of the courtyard, no matter where she went, she was not afraid of not being able to come back.And the roses covering the entire wall are the most beautiful scenery in the world.

He seems to have set up an invisible courtyard for her, no matter where she goes, as long as she can still see him, she will not be considered lost.

Compared to the quiet Nanting mansion, the Jiang family is not so peaceful.

"That person is not Ah Ci."

After Xu Yiqing who rushed over brought the news, both Jiang's father and son heaved a sigh of relief.

"Then where did she go?" Although Jiang Yuanshan breathed a sigh of relief, his brows soon became frowning.

Xu Yiqing responded: "Uncle Jiang, I'm sorry, we shouldn't have taken her there."

Jiang Yuanshan didn't answer anymore, but got up and went to the study.Jiang Shu knew that he was blaming himself, and couldn't help but feel guilty in his heart.

"...I'll go out and have a look."

Xu Yiqing immediately followed him and left the Jiang family together.

Early the next morning, Fang Shilin came to the supervisory building in person.

But Duan Yanan and Zhang Qi are both in prison.

Fu Yuanxiu was extremely disdainful of Zhang Qi's words.

"My surname Zhang, how dare you blame us for what you did?"

Zhang Qi didn't lie at all, he just sneered and said, "Young Master Fu, so many people watched you murder, how could it be that I pushed it to you?"

"You!" Fang Jing, who had no evidence to testify, yelled directly, "What are you! I didn't kill that woman!"

Duan Yan'an leaned on the desk behind him, and looked at Fu Yuanxiu, as if communicating with him.

From the beginning to the end, Duan Yan'an did not speak during the entire interrogation. When he got out of the prison, he also left the supervision building directly.

"At the ball, Zhang Qi called several girls from the dance hall, but none of them came back, and the so-called girl who was killed by Young Master Fu was one of them." Gu Zhi said this with a dignified expression.

"It should be Zhang Qi who forcibly gave it to foreigners..." Duan Yan'an's expression became colder, "Go ask Shishen to keep an eye on the ship leaving the port and search it carefully."

"Yes."

He thought about it for a while, and then ordered: "Tell Xu Yiqing the news, he will find it more convenient than us."

Because Fang Jing was involved in this matter, Fang Shilin turned a blind eye to Duan Yanan's sudden search of the ship.

After Xu Yiqing found out about this, as Duan Yanan expected, they immediately started investigating the disappearance of those women.

"I'll go with you too, in case Ah Ci is among those people..." Jiang Shu suggested immediately.

Xu Yiqing could only agree.

But Jiang Ci, who had been in the Nanting mansion for four days, was still a little worried, so he was always absent-minded.

"What are you thinking about?"

She put down the book in response and looked up at him.

"I want to go back and have a look."

Duan Yan'an leaned forward, resting his elbows on the table, looking at the table from the other.

"Wanwan doesn't want to stay here anymore?"

Jiang Ci immediately shook his head in denial: "No... I think they will be worried."

"Don't worry." He promised softly, "Stay a few more days, and I'll send you back, okay?"

"What about you? Are you leaving?" She was even more worried.

Duan Yan'an smiled helplessly and said, "I won't leave... You can continue to stay at Jiang's house, and I will also be in Yandu. We will still be the same as before."

Jiang Ci's worries dissipated immediately, as if the clouds had finally come to light.

"it is good."

He returned to his original sitting posture, and his lowered eyes concealed the smile in his eyes.

And on the busy pier in the south, several forces have gathered in secret.

Secretly, Zhang Qi and various people who blocked Duan Yan'an made further inspections, but he didn't know that besides him, there was also Xu Yiqing who had been following the information Duan Yan'an deliberately disclosed, looking for the whereabouts of those women.

Of course, besides this, Fang Shilin was also secretly observing.
