When the sky was completely dark, Ye Huanyan, Gu Chi, and Chen Yin spread out in the villa area by the beach and began to move.
Before he left, he specifically asked He Chaoqun to find a bottle of wine and spray it all over his body. If anything happened, he could pretend that he was a guest who had too much to drink at a party nearby and was wandering around.
Ye Huanyan's face was still covered in thick oil paint. They began to search the villa area near He Chaoqun's house. Sure enough, as he said, there were not many people living on the beach in December. At a glance, there were very few lights on.
After knocking on several doors, only the servants who stayed at home opened the door. When they saw that the person knocking on the door was a drunkard, they impatiently closed the door. Those with bad attitudes were ready to call the police.
After a busy night, it was already midnight when they returned to He Chaoqun's villa.
It was much faster than the original plan. They had finished searching all the villas in District B.
"In the places I was responsible for, only five of the houses with the lights on were the owners. The remaining three houses had servants. The rest had no lights on, and there were no signs of people living there."
After Gu Chi finished telling his results, he looked at Chen Ying and said, "It's the same at my place. There are a few empty houses, but the windows are not locked. I climbed over to the balcony to take a look. There's really no one there."
When it was Ye Huanyan's turn, she had already stopped talking. Her silent attitude said everything.
"You didn't find anything, but you can't say that you didn't find anything."
Gu Chi took a deep breath. "At least we checked all the villas in District B twice as fast as before. We're sure that the young master is not here. Tomorrow, we'll go to District A."
"Good, I'm going to District A tomorrow too. I'll drive you in."
"What are you going to do?"
Ye Huanyan asked.
"The person who saved me and Sister Xiao Yue. I'm going to bring two bottles of red wine to thank him. I left in a hurry before and didn't even see his face."
Ye Huanyan nodded.
Indeed, he should be grateful for saving his life.
She could bring all of them in and avoid lying to the security guard like today.
The security guards in Area A might not be so easy to coax.
According to the original plan, they were going to leave the beach overnight after they finished investigating. However, since they met He Chaoqun here, there was no need to leave. However, Ye Huanyan was worried about Ling Han and Naonnao, so she asked Gu Chi to go back and deliver a letter. She and Chen Yin stayed behind.
"I saw the news this afternoon. The news of the Gu family being thoroughly investigated has already been reported. Uncle Gu has been locked up alone for interrogation, and there is still no news from the Four Seasons Villa. I don't know what's going on. I want to contact the people around my father to check, but I'm afraid of exposing you."
He Chaoqun looked at Ye Huanyan awkwardly.
"It's okay. Like I said, you don't have to feel too burdened. This matter wasn't your fault to begin with."
Ye Huanyan continued, "After such a big incident, all the subsidiaries of Gu's Group have been closed down for rectification. It's impossible not to be on the news. As for the villa, I think Uncle He will more or less give me some face and won't do anything to my mother."
"That's true, but …"
He Chaoqun knew that there was no point in saying this now, so he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and changed his words.
"If we find Brother Sinian's location in Area A tomorrow, what are you going to do?"
"First, we'll find a way to distract the people around him. If there's no other way, we can only rob him. I don't know how many people are around my brother, but Gu Duo shouldn't be careless with him."
He Chaoqun and Gu Duo had known each other since they were children. In his impression, Gu Duo was just an older sister who liked to act coquettishly with her parents. No one would have thought that she would become like this later on.
At this time, in a villa in Area A, which was not too far away from Area B of the Manhattan Beach villa.
The Maid put the tray on the coffee table, unscrewed the bottle cap, poured out two pills, and handed them to Gu Sinian. "The water is cold. Add half a cup of hot water."
Gu Sinian took the bottle cap with one hand and touched the cup with the back of his other hand with the back of his other hand. His expression was indifferent.
The Maid nodded and turned around with the cup. She picked up the thermos flask on the coffee table and added water.
In her blind spot, the two white pills in the bottle cap slipped into the sleeves of his pajamas, and two almost identical white pills fell between his fingers into the bottle cap.
"The water is ready. Sir, take the medicine."
The Maid urged in a low voice.
The medicine given by Gu Duo had to be taken on time. She was afraid that something wrong would happen if she did not give the medicine to Gu Sinian on time.
Gu Sinian poured the medicine in the bottle cap into his mouth in front of her and then swallowed the pills with the water in the cup.
After seeing Gu Sinian's Adam's apple move and confirming that the two pills could not be spat out, the Maid turned around and began to pack up.
"Sir, I won't take away the vitamins. You just need to take them on time every day."
"Okay."
After the sound of the door closing, the white pills were crushed into powder in Gu Sinian's hand. They slid from his palm into the remaining half cup of warm water on the table. They quickly melted and finally merged with the water.
…
Early the next morning, He Chaoqun drove the Maybach out of the garage and drove into Area A of the beach villa with Chen Yin and Ye Huanyan.
The cars in the beach villa were recorded. This time, the security guard did not stop them and let them in directly.
In the morning, Gu Chi called and said that there was a new movement in the Four Seasons Villa. He needed to find a way to investigate and try to contact Gu Liu. Therefore, he let Ye Huanyan and Chen Yin investigate Area A first in the morning.
Because it was daytime, the two of them didn't put on any of those exaggerated oil paints on their faces. They only used a dark foundation to make their faces look very dark. Those who didn't know better would think that their skin was naturally dark. If they weren't very familiar with them, they wouldn't be able to recognize them at a glance.
After leaving the security guard's sight, the two of them directly got out of the car. He Chaoqun pointed to a villa not far away and said, "I'm in that house.
"I'm in that house over there. When the time comes, just wait for me nearby. Contact me at any time."
Following the direction of his finger, Ye Huanyan and Chen Yin both looked up and memorized the location. They nodded and left from the fork, going straight into the deepest part of the villa area.
"Ding-dong."
The doorbell rang, which made the Maid very surprised. After opening the door and seeing He Chaoqun, her eyes became more vigilant. "Hello, I'm here to thank your husband."
He Chaoqun lifted the things in his hand and pulled out a kind smile at the nervous Maid.
However, the Maid blocked the door and had no intention of letting him in. "Sir is not at home. You don't have to thank him for saving you last time. Hurry up and leave."
With that, the Maid was about to close the door.
