Where did An Ning go?

There was no toilet. Jiang Jun and Xu Qing searched the banquet hall again, but they still couldn't find An Ning. Where did she go?

”Don't alarm the guests yet. Let's go to the rest of the hotel to look around first. An Ning should still be in the hotel.” Xu Qing suggested. It had only been half an hour or so, so he guessed that she wouldn't be far.

”Alright.”

After saying that, Jiang Jun immediately contacted the hotel manager and asked him to send more people to find An Ning.

However, even after they found the inn, they were still unable to find An Ning. Jiang Jia Han's heart was very anxious, but she still arranged for people to look for her in an orderly manner.

An Ning had gone to the bathroom at the side of the banquet hall. Jiang Jia Han had called out An Ning's surveillance footage from the bathroom. An Ning had come out from there with Ji Mingzhen following her. Obviously, Ji Mingzhen wanted to say something to her.

However, the two of them had disappeared from the surveillance video together. The part from the bathroom to the front was a dead end, and from then on, the two of them were nowhere to be seen.

Initially, the few of them did not realize that An Ning would be kidnapped. It was highly likely that no one in the hotel was as rampant as that.

Jiang Jianxin didn't suspect Ji Mingzhen either. He didn't think that Ji Ming would have the guts to kidnap An Ning, not to mention that she was right under her nose.

There was no trace of An Ning in the hotel. Jiang Jianxue walked back and forth between the banquet hall and the bathroom a few times. The monitor was limited to the staircase, and there was a short period of time where the monitor was off track at the other end of the corridor.

Ji Ming really was the last person who saw An Ning. Jiang Jia came straight to her.

”Did you see An Ning after you went to the bathroom for half an hour?”

Why would he suddenly ask such a question? Ji Mingzhen was alarmed and an innocent expression appeared on her face. ”You know An Ning doesn't like me. When would I ever have the chance to meet with her alone?”

”Are you sure?” Jiang Jun's cold eyes were extremely sharp. Ji Mingzhen was feeling guilty, so she quickly lowered her head.

”If I had known that you were inviting me here today, alas —” The meaning behind her words was that she didn't want to see An Ning at all, so why would she still meet her?

Ji Mingzhen's words and reaction were normal, so Jiang Jia didn't ask any more questions.

Jiang Xian continued to carefully monitor the situation. An Ning should have stayed in this part of the corridor behind the staircase, but this was the eleventh floor. An Ning probably didn't know how to take the stairs.

However, there were no more rooms at the end of the corridor. An Ning couldn't just disappear into thin air.

She probably wouldn't go upstairs, so she went downstairs with a feeling of trying it out. He had only taken three steps down the ladder when he saw a familiar object — the necklace he had given to An Ning.

He picked up the necklace. He was very clear about the workmanship of the necklace, and he was the one who put it on for her. Under normal circumstances, this necklace wouldn't fall off by itself, so it definitely wouldn't fall off by accident.

Not good, Jiang Jia Han suddenly frowned, he had been checking the monitoring system in the hotel and had ignored the possibility that she was taken out by someone else. Jiang Jia Han rushed to the duty room of the security department and watched the footage on the security system for half an hour.

”Stop-magnification.” A minivan drove past the hotel. According to the surveillance camera, the minivan was directly driven out of the hotel's underground warehouse.

But if so, how did they manage not to appear in any of the hotel's internal surveillance?

Even if you go all the way up the stairs, you'll be in the camera when you get to the garage.

”What does this car do?”

The hotel manager quickly replied, ”This is a car that sends seasonings to the hotel.” Cars entering or exiting the Duffy Hotel were usually either rich or expensive, and the chances of such a van appearing were very small.
