Chapter 403 - Search Team (2/2)
”Sir, I heard you were looking for me,” said the head manager with a polite smile, though he was actually surprised.
”Earlier my uncle went to the hunting area behind this hotel. The last time I called him was about two hours ago and now he is completely unreachable. Ask some people to help me find him,” Nico said.
The head manager panicked. Aiden Atmajaya disappeared? In addition, he disappeared in the hotel he managed…
Sweat immediately drenched his forehead. In his heart, he could only hope for a miracle. He hoped Aiden would not get hurt.
The head manager had a report that Aiden was staying at this hotel, but why didn't anyone report that the man had gone hunting? If he had known that such an important person had gone hunting near his hotel, he would surely have sent a group of professionals to accompany him, making sure that nothing happened…
Why did all this trouble happen to him in a day?
It seemed, after Nico and Aiden came back from this hotel, he would really lose his job.
He shook his head vigorously. He still had a chance!
Now, the most important thing to do was to find Aiden.
Ten minutes later, the hotel gathered some local farmers and hunters who were used to dealing with wild animals. Nico also joined in to find his uncle. The hotel management had already called the search team, but they needed time to arrive at their place.
Meanwhile, Anya and Tara waited in the room Aiden ordered. Even though many delicious foods were served in front of them, they didn't have any appetite left. For the first time, Tara felt she couldn't stomach anything. Neither the food nor their current situation.
”Anya, don't worry. Explosions couldn't even kill Aiden, so let alone a wild beast. Aiden will be fine,” Tara said.
Anya smiled a little at what her best friend said. Tara's mouth was haphazard, but she was grateful that Tara was with her. ”You do have a unique way of entertaining someone,”
Tara scratched her head because she realized she had said it the wrong way. ”I mean, Aiden has been through an ordeal greater than this. He has great luck, so I'm sure he can survive any situation,” Tara said, trying to make her point clear.
”There's no need to explain. I see what you mean. I hope Aiden is well,” Anya felt her heart was chaotic. She hoped Nico could find Aiden as soon as possible.
Raka saw Nico coming out of the restaurant along with several people who were already fully dressed. He saw them with rifles hanging from their backs.
”Nico, where are you going?” Raka immediately stopped Nico when he saw his friend's serious face.
”My uncle hasn't come back yet and I can't reach him. The search team will arrive at this place soon, but I can't wait. I'll look for him first,” said Nico seriously.
Raka thought for a moment and then said, ”I'll come with you. The more people, the better,”
”You ...” Nico looked at Raka's neat clothes. ”How can you go in clothes like that?”
”I will borrow clothes from the hotel,” Raka said, looking at the head manager.
The head manager immediately took a bag filled with clothes and complete equipment to Raka.
It didn't take long before Raka returned fully dressed. He left his cellphone, keys, wallet and clothes that belonged to him before following Nico.
”Raka, I will ride this bike. You can sit behind me,” for some reason, Nico felt more confident when Raka's around him.
Maybe because he knew that he could rely on his friend.
”You? Riding this bike?” Raka laughed sarcastically. ”You better sit in the back. We've got no time to let normie like you ride this,” Raka couldn't forget the incident when Nico took him and threw him into the lake.
