"Old Chen, Little Sister Jiang isn’t here?" Chen Dalang wiped the sweat from his forehead, seeing that only Xie Jingchen was inside the room and that the door was closed, he immediately guessed, "Asleep?"

"An emergency call?" Xie Jingchen nodded, then seriously counter-questioned.

"No, no. It’s about Jiang Hongrong’s place, something happened." Chen Dalang was anxious, wanting Xie Jingchen to come with him, but then he thought about Little Sister Jiang sleeping and her being heavily pregnant—what if she woke up and got scared not seeing her husband?

"I’ll get straight to the point—Lin Aihong has disappeared."

"Oh?" Xie Jingchen had no fondness for that name, and hearing it was her, he felt settled and indifferently counter-questioned.

"This morning, Little Sister Jiang was supposed to take her to see a doctor, right, she was feverish. But then they ran into you, and seeing that her sister was causing too much of a scene, Little Sister Jiang just took her home and gave her medicine. Before they left, the girl was still feverish, but her temperature had gone down."

At this point, Chen Dalang felt somewhat displeased, yet also helpless. After all, Lin Aifei coming out to apologize at a gathering was actually all Lin Aihong’s doing. If it weren’t for her acting like she was setting her sights on Old Xie in front of Zhang Shanni, none of the following issues would’ve arisen.

Lin Aifei couldn’t possibly feel closer to this younger sister whom she hardly sees once a year over her husband with whom she has lived year in and year out.

Lin Aihong really was brainless, knowing she was sick and with the outside world wrapped in ice and snow, she still dared to leave the military on her own!

"Has the military searched everywhere?" Xie Jingchen frowned, poured a cup of hot tea for him and followed up with the question while quickly putting on his combat uniform.

"Already did. We had just sat down for a short while after dispersing when Jiang Hongrong came looking for us. Now, it’s been over two hours and still no news."

"Eye-witness?"

"Yes. Zhu Yilai’s wife saw her leave, even asking her the way, saying she wanted to leave military premises."

"Entrance and exit log?"

"Yes. When she was leaving, she happened to run into Li Dalang’s wife coming back and bumped into her." Chen Dalang took the hot tea handed to him, gulping down three mouthfuls scaldingly into his stomach, finally feeling a bit warmer, and continued:

"We found Wen Mianhua. She said she saw a young girl going out, but because the girl was bundled up tightly, she did not notice she was sick."

"What time is recorded for her exit?" Xie Jingchen glanced out at the snowflakes outside the window and paused before asking.

"6:43 a.m.!"

Xie Jingchen raised the mechanical watch in his hand, summarizing, "It has been nearly three hours!"

Now the time was sharp at 9:30 a.m.!

Now, not only is it dark outside, but the temperature still hasn’t reached minus ten degrees, this kind of weather could be fatal for a woman with an illness!

And that’s not all, in the wilderness, there are attacks from wild animals and human nature!

Moreover, to the nearest village from military premises, even taking the shortest shortcut, is still seven or eight li away!

If rescue is not timely, then one can only wait to freeze to death or be murdered.

"Old Chen, go call sister-in-law down."
