Chapter 93 She got mad
The sun is shining.

Wan Yan led Lu Mu to follow Miao Hong, and the three of them had already visited all the merchants on Tongshan Street, as well as the two dental shops closest to Tongshan Street.

Neither yielded.

Mother Lu watched Miao Hong posting Lu Mingyu's portrait at the intersection of Tongshan Street, feeling sad from the bottom of her heart.

Along the way, Mother Lu regarded Wan Yan as someone she could rely on, and kept asking, "Miss Xue, what should we do now? Can we find Yu'er? Where do you think she is?"

Wan Yan comforted her patiently, and said tirelessly that we would definitely find Miss Lu, but she felt anxious in her heart following Mother Lu's questioning.

After half an hour, Wan Yan felt that her throat was dry and it hurt when she swallowed saliva.

She's on fire!

"Master Su and Miao Tutou have put in all their efforts. Auntie, don't worry. Let's find a way together, and we will definitely find Miss Lu."

Wan Yan took a deep breath, feeling a big stone stuck in her heart.

"Can you not be in a hurry? Yu'er has no news at all right now. Could it be that our search range is too small?"

Wan Yan understood the adult's state of mind at the time, and investigating at a loss was indeed like finding a needle in a haystack.

"Auntie, as early as when Master Su received the letter from Lord Yin Wang of Lingjiang Prefecture to assist in the investigation, he had already launched an investigation. The inns and merchants near Tongshan Street, Master Su and Miao Tutou have all visited."

Wan Yan also understood Lu's mother's mood, "But there were no portraits at that time, and now we can only hope that someone will see the portraits and recall something."

"I'm late! If I came earlier and started looking for Yu'er earlier, would there be hope?"

"Auntie, don't blame yourself too much. We don't want anything to happen. Someone saw Miss Lu fifteen days ago. Maybe she was delayed by something. We will hear about her soon."

Miao Hong felt uncomfortable listening to the conversation between the two.

Based on his experience, looking for a person for so many days without any results is mostly bad luck.

The best possibility is that Lu Mingyu left Tongshan Mansion and went to other places.

Miao Hong wiped his sweat and pointed to the distance, "Let's not think badly now, let's go, and then go to the dental store on Lianshan Street. Although it is not big there, it has a wide range of people in charge, and the locals like to go there Take your chances."

"Thank you for arresting Miao." Lu's mother was hopeful again.

The three of them turned the corner of the street and walked down a street, and a small door with the words "Dentistry" came into view.

Mother Lu murmured, "I really hope I can find out something here." As she spoke, she unfolded Lu Mingyu's portrait and put it in her hand, Wan Yan felt very uncomfortable looking at it.

Three people walked into the dental shop, and there was a lot of voices inside.

Some people sitting in the corridor swept their eyes, and all of them focused on Wan Yan.

The manager recognized Miao Hong, and ran over to greet him warmly, "Miao Butou, what brought you here? This is..." His eyes looked at Mother Lu, and then at Wan Yan.

Miao Hong was very displeased with the attitude of the person in charge, and he was holding a knife and said seriously, "Don't smile, have you done anything you shouldn't have done recently?"

The person in charge is in his 20s, when he heard Miao Hong's question, his face was filled with a smile, "No, good man, it's all right." But his eyes dodged a little.

Miao Hong sneered, "Do you still want to go to the Yamen with me to weigh in on that matter? Or do you answer what I ask now? You choose!"

Miao Hong slapped him and gave Tianzao again. His attitude in handling affairs was completely different from before, and even his smile became a lot more sincere. "Look at what Miao Catcher said, I will fully cooperate with you."

So Lu Mingyu, who is in charge of affairs, looked at the portrait of Lu Mingyu very seriously, and after a while he really noticed something: "Miao Butou, I seem to have seen this person before."

Wan Yan's heart trembled, and Miao Hong asked eagerly, "What's going on?"

"This girl should have been to our dental clinic."

The three of them widened their eyes with excitement.

"Tell me, when?" Miao Hong was anxious.

"Let's think about it, about nine days ago."

Wan Yan was so excited that she wanted to cry.

The time Lu Mingyu has been missing is getting shorter and shorter, and the hope of her being found is getting bigger and bigger.

"She came to our dental office several times. I think about it, maybe three or four times. She tried to work in the middle, but it was not suitable and she was not satisfied. Come with me, I have a record here."

Lu's mother leaned against Wanyan tightly, her feet went weak with excitement.

"It's good to have news. Auntie, don't worry too much. We have found out that Miss Lu has been here. I believe we will find her soon. Let's go and have a look."

Miao Hong was in a hurry, and Wan Yan and the others took dozens of steps, eager to enter the back hall of the tooth shop first.

"Miao Tutou, who is the girl who came with you?" The manager was curious about Wan Yan's identity.

Miao Hong patted the head in charge, "You care so much? Hurry up! Find out Miss Lu's information, it's a waste of time, I'll ask you if something goes wrong."

The manager with a hippie smile, got behind the counter and took out a notebook and carefully flipped through it.

Flipping forward many pages, the manager pointed, "Here, Miao Butou, look, the name left by that girl is Lu Mingyu, is it her?"

Mother Lu was just stepping into the threshold. When she heard the words Lu Mingyu, she rushed to the counter in a few steps, "Yes, yes, it is my daughter. Where did she go? Where did she go?"

The manager was startled, and took a step back to look at Miao Hong.

Miao Hong knocked on the counter with a serious expression, "This Miss Lu is missing, I'm here to investigate now, so you tell the truth, and if there are any excuses, I'll take you directly to jail."

The manager then closed his smile and looked serious, "Miao Butou, this girl has come to our dental office several times, but she didn't register with me when she left. Look, this is her trial work record."

Miao Hong tore through the notebook, read it carefully, and slightly narrowed his eyes.

Wan Yan took the record and saw that the notepad reads:

Lu Mingyu, Guangfa Liquor Co., had a trial job for three days. The office said no, with Lu Mingyu's signature at the end.

Wan Yan motioned to Mother Lu, "Auntie, do you think this is Miss Lu's handwriting?"

Mother Lu looked and nodded.

The manager felt relieved, "Look, Catcher Miao, I won't lie. There are so many people looking for work here, if there is something I can't do it."

"Tell me in detail, do you have any impression of this girl?"

"I have the impression that she looks pretty, so just now you showed me the portrait, and I recognized that girl at a glance."

Miao Hong kicked him, "Don't say it's useless, Miss Lu left you without saying where she went?"

The manager patted his buttocks and shook his head, "Actually, the liquor store is pretty good. Miss Lu was very satisfied at first, but she wanted to find a place to stay. Although the liquor store pays a lot of money, Miss Lu seems to say that she is not worth it."

Lu's mother wiped her tears, not letting go of every word said by the manager, "Then what happened next?"

"Later? I didn't know later, Miss Lu never came after that." The manager scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Do you know where she lives?"

"There's an inn not far away, just around the corner. Miss Lu told me that she lives there, and she also said that there is a suitable job for me to go directly to find her. You see, I have a sign here."

Sure enough, Wan Yan saw two small characters behind Lu Mingyu's name: Peng Lai.

After walking out of the dental shop, the three of them came to Penglai Inn again, and the shopkeeper recognized Lu Mingyu immediately after seeing the portrait.

"Yes, this girl does live with me, but she checked out five days ago."

"Five days?" The three asked back at the same time, unable to tell whether it was joy or excitement.

The shopkeeper was a little frightened, looked at Miao Hong and quickly explained: "Captain Miao, that's right, this girl left five days ago."

As he spoke, he took out the check-in registration and pointed it to Miao Hong.

"It's not important, do you know where she went?"

"They said they found a place to work, and they happily checked out."

"Where is it?"

"The girl didn't say anything. There were a lot of people who came to go through the formalities that day. The girl looked smart. I even joked that you might as well be the shopkeeper here. She smiled and refused, saying that I pay less wages here."

Wan Yan showed regret, it was just a little bit short, where did Lu Mingyu go?
"Help the shopkeeper think about it again. Are there any other details?"

"Others?" The shopkeeper pondered for a moment, "It seems that Miss Lu met someone. She said that the place where she worked this time was introduced by an acquaintance. I really don't know anything else."
