Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 472 A Bold Double Arrow
Du Anrao and his companions were taken aback upon hearing this. The person had already escaped? Had they rushed here so quickly, yet still been too late?

Lu Chengzhang felt as if he had been hit hard on the head with a heavy hammer, and he swayed twice, almost falling over.

Seeing this, Lu Jiarou quickly scooped up her younger brother and said with exasperation, "Calm down, we haven't found him yet, he might be alright."

"Yes, she's definitely alright, there must be a way. You guys need to find someone quickly! There are so many people coming and going in this neighborhood, and she, a grown woman, ran out with a group of people chasing her, someone must have seen her. Have you asked anyone in this neighborhood? And... and the security guards around here, they definitely know!"

As Lu Chengzhang was about to go find the security guard at the entrance of the residential area, he was stopped by someone first.

"Unfortunately, in these old residential areas, the security system is lacking. The security room at the main gate is only used for receiving and sending packages, and there are basically no regular security guards on duty there. Most of the surveillance cameras in the vicinity of the community are also old and broken, so they can't be relied on."

“We did look into the two neighbors next to Ms. Chi. No one was home in one of them, and the other was an elderly woman who was hard of hearing. She was probably taking a nap at the time of the incident and didn’t notice anything happening next door.”

Lu Jiarou's expression darkened slightly: "In other words, the trail has gone cold. No one has seen her during this period, and now we don't even know where to look for her?"

"Damn it!" Lu Chengzhang kicked the pillar next to him in anger. After hesitating for a moment, he still couldn't sit and wait for his death. He turned around to go find someone, but was stopped by Du Anrao.

"Write a word."

"what?"

"I'm telling you to write a random character in Chi Yanqing's mind, hurry up."

Although Lu Chengzhang didn't know what she wanted to do, he still subconsciously did as she said. At this moment, his mind was full of how to find the person, and the characters he wrote were also very typical, the character "晏" from "海晏河清" (meaning "peace and tranquility").

Du Anrao looked at the word and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"The character '晏' is composed of '日' (sun) above and '安' (peace) below, indicating that she is currently relatively safe. As for her location, the sun is at the top, and following the sunlight indicates that's the direction."

Du Anrao looked up at the sun, which was high in the west not far away in the afternoon, and quickly chased after it.

Xie Jingyao and the others reacted a beat slower, but they still hurriedly followed.

Fortunately, Du Anrao and others reported the incident to the police in time, and the police also sealed off the community in a timely manner. Soon, news came that several tall and muscular suspicious people had been found in the community.

Upon seeing the police, the group instinctively tried to run away, clearly displaying a guilty conscience and inadvertently confessing their crimes. They were quickly apprehended.

This news greatly encouraged Du Anrao and the others, as it meant that Chi Yanqing had not been taken out of the community by them. As long as she remained in the community and did not go out, she would not be in a car accident like in the original story, and there was still hope for her!
But even after Du Anrao and his group searched every corner of the neighborhood in the direction of the sun, they still couldn't find Chi Yanqing.

Excluding the possibility that Du Anrao's calculations were wrong, it is highly likely that Chi Yanqing is hiding because she is afraid of being found.

At this moment, Lu Jiarou was completely convinced of Du Anrao's abilities, and without thinking, she turned to her foolish younger brother: "Do you have her contact information?"

"Huh?" Lu Chengzhang was stunned, his face full of confusion.

Lu Jiarou rolled her eyes at him disdainfully, as if to say, "What use are you?"
Finally, Lu Jiarou managed to find Chi Yanqing's contact information through internal company documents.

Fortunately, Chi Yanqing had indeed brought her phone with her during the crisis. However, in extreme panic, people inevitably lose their composure and forget how to save themselves. When Lu Jiarou called Chi Yanqing, Chi Yanqing was holding her phone with her mind blank. It took her a long time to remember to call the police for help.

Before she could even make the call, Lu Jiarou called first. After confirming each other's identities and the other party's purpose several times, Chi Yanqing finally mustered up the courage to come out and meet Du Anrao and the others.

Thus, this thrilling search for the missing person came to an end.

While they were finding the person, the police had also apprehended most of the criminals who had come to kidnap the person, and the rest could be handled by them.

It is worth mentioning that when Du Anrao and others went to the police station to give their statements, Xi Jingyue, who was seeking help from outside the scene, also came along, along with a young man whom Du Anrao did not recognize.

"Mr. Xi, what brings you here?"

"You suddenly asked me for Xi Yanjia's photo, and I was worried, so I called Zhaoyang to ask about your situation and came over immediately. How are you? Are you alright?"

"I'm not injured, but Mr. Xi, why do you seem completely unsurprised by what happened here?"

Xi Jingyue's expression stiffened slightly, but he quickly recovered and sighed, "To be honest, ever since that strange thing happened on the day of the ancestral worship, I've conducted a thorough and detailed investigation into my relatives. The results... weren't very good, especially regarding my cousin..."

Du Anrao immediately became interested: "What did you find out about her?"

"You were there on the day of the ancestral worship, so you probably remember that she brought her boyfriend with her. But my subsequent investigation revealed that she not only had a boyfriend, but also had close and ambiguous relationships with two other men..."

Du Anrao was stunned when he heard this.

[Mr. Xi is amazing! We only stumbled upon this bombshell truth—that Xi Yanjia was cheating on three men—by sheer chance, but he figured it all out himself! He truly is the man who has the script in his hands!]

Xi Jingyue accepted Du Anrao's praise fairly well, but... what's with this man holding the script? Something just felt off.

"Among the men she's been having an ambiguous relationship with, there's one whose situation is rather special, and his past isn't exactly clean. And the Mr. Lu you're meeting today happens to be one of her close 'brothers,' so I'm worried you might get taken advantage of."

"So that's how it is." After listening to Xi Jingyue's explanation, Du Anrao felt even more impressed by Xi Jingyue's intelligence network, which had managed to uncover the general truth of the matter through investigation alone.

"Why are you here too?"

While Du Anrao and Xi Jingyue were talking, Lu Jiarou, who was standing to the side, also looked at the young man who was traveling with Xi Jingyue with some surprise.

Du Anrao turned his head when he heard the noise and noticed that Lu Jiarou and the young man were holding hands with a thick red thread.

[Tsk tsk tsk, this red thread is so thick... how much mutual affection do these two have? Their feelings are so deep, even the God of Love with scissors couldn't cut it off!]

Upon hearing this, Xi Jingyue and Du Yuxi both turned to look at Lu Jiarou and Du Yuxi simultaneously. This strange commotion startled the young couple who had unexpectedly met.

Du Yuxi, who had been observing Xi Jingyue for a long time, seemed to sense something and narrowed her eyes, turning her gaze from the two of them to Xi Jingyue.
