Shu Xin got up from the bed, took the phone on the bedside table and dialed Huo Yanqing's number. A moment later, a robotic female voice came from the phone. "Hello, the number you have dialed is not within the service area …"
Shu Xin blinked. What did she mean by not in the service area?
Shuxin hung up and dialed again. The result was the same.
Shuxin dialed Song Li's number again. It was the same. He was not within the service area.
Strange.
Shuxin opened Baidu and checked the number. Why was it not within the service area?
There were a lot of answers.
The other party was in a remote mountainous area. There was no mobile signal.
The mobile signal in the other party's area was jammed.
The user's phone was turned off or set to airplane mode.
The SIM card was broken.
The phone was out of order.
Shuxin lay back on the bed and guessed which possibility was the most likely. The more she guessed, the more frustrated she became. She tossed and turned and finally fell asleep when it was almost dawn.
Shuxin woke up after a little more than an hour. It was half past seven when she finished her physical training and breakfast.
Shuxin took out her phone and dialed Huo Yanqing's number. It was still out of service. She called Song Li.
Shuxin began to worry. Huo Yanqing's phone was full of his family's numbers. It was fine if his phone was turned off. Song Li had no reason to turn off his phone. They were businessmen. They could not turn off their phones for long.
Even if the SIM card or the phone was out of order, it would be fixed today.
Shuxin wanted to know where Huo Yanqing had gone on his business trip. She asked Yao Huiqin. No. She had just said last night that she knew about Huo Yanqing's business trip. If she asked now, Yao Huiqin would be worried again.
She went to the Huo Corporation to ask. It was the eleventh today. They were all on holiday.
Finally, Shuxin thought of Ms. Yang from the Secretary Department. She remembered that she had saved Ms. Yang's number when she was working at the Huo Corporation. She opened her address book and dialed Ms. Yang's number. The call went through quickly. "Boss Shu."
Shuxin was anxious, so she asked directly, "Where did President Huo go on his business trip?"
"President Huo went to F City."
"Is that a mountainous area? Will there be no signal? "
Sister Yang was stunned for a moment. She thought that Shuxin wanted to travel there, so she said, "There are mountains and rivers there. It's a good place to travel. President Huo is going there for an inspection this time. He wants to plan the scenic area there and develop it into a large resort. Then, he wants to take advantage of the National Day to observe the flow of tourists there."
Shuxin repeated, "Will there be no signal?"
"No. Although F City isn't a first-tier city, it's not to the point where there's no signal."
"Which hotel did they book in advance?"
"The Taoyuan Hotel in the city center. However, President Huo is going there for an inspection this time. I don't think he'll stay in the hotel. If you want to find him, you'll have to go to the scenic area of Mount Jing."
"Okay, thank you."
Shuxin hung up the phone. She was even more worried. If it wasn't a remote mountainous area, then there was only one possibility. The signal was jammed. It had been jammed for a long time since she called last night until this morning.
Shuxin instantly thought of Huo Yanqing's trip to Z Country. Could he be in danger?
Shuxin couldn't sit still anymore. She said goodbye to Yao Huiqin and told him that she had an appointment with friends on the National Day. Then she went back to her residence and began to pack her luggage. She called Yang Ji as she packed.
Shuxin wasn't sure what had happened to Huo Yanqing, so she didn't want to jump to conclusions. However, she felt that it would be more convenient to bring Yang Ji along. If something happened, one more person could help her and she wouldn't panic.
