Chapter 413 I didn't expect the person to be dead.
If Fu Jinxing can acquire the company Jiang Die currently works for, he can acquire the next company as well.

Jiang Die pursed her lips, her expression filled with panic, "Then now I..."

"Did he say anything to you?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Jiang Die shook her head and said in a trembling voice, "He never spoke to me, he just glanced at me from afar, and then the boss came to find me and said that the new boss wanted me to be his assistant."

"Sister, don't be nervous." Jiang Yuan held her cold hand and gently comforted her, "You didn't do anything wrong, so don't be afraid of him."

"But I'm worried he'll take Zhanzhan and Momo away from me."

"Probably not. If he wanted to take Zhanzhan and Momo away, he wouldn't go to the trouble of acquiring your company and then appointing you as his assistant."

"Really?" Jiang Die frowned, still uneasy. "Then what exactly does he want to do?"

"It's truly unpredictable." Jiang Yuan thought of the ending of Jiang Die and Fu Jinxing in her dream.

Fu Jinxing is probably doing this because he wants to pursue Jiang Die.

But Jiang Yuan didn't tell Jiang Die, fearing it would put even more pressure on her.

Some plot points should be left to develop naturally, and we shouldn't interfere too much.

Looking at Jiang Die's gentle features, she said softly, "Sister, don't be afraid. I'm here. I'll help you. If he dares to bully you or try to take Zhanzhan and Momo from you, I'll send out all sorts of ferocious beasts to assassinate him!"

Jiang Die chuckled at her words, "Sure, sure!"

Her initial anxiety immediately eased.

the other side.

Xingxing sat at her desk and sent a WeChat message to her roommate Tu Ruoyi: "Ruoyi, are you going back to the dorm tonight?"

The message was sent, but no reply was received.

At 11 p.m., Xingxing lay on the top bunk, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

She picked up her phone again, stared at Tu Ruoyi's chat window, hesitated for a moment, and then invited Tu Ruoyi to make a video call.

I called three times in a row but no one answered.

She thought about it and called her again, but there was still no answer.

Xingxing became increasingly uneasy, turned over and sat up in bed. "I feel like something's not right."

"What's wrong?" my roommate asked when she heard the noise.

Xingxing pulled back the bed curtains, her voice grave: "Ruoyi hasn't replied to WeChat messages, hasn't answered video calls, and hasn't answered the phone. Could she be in danger?"

Her roommate also pulled back the curtain, frowning as she looked at her. "It looks like she's going to meet her online boyfriend?"

“Yes.” Xingxing nodded. “I don’t know what the situation is, but not replying to WeChat messages or sending videos is not like her style.”

“Yeah,” my roommate said. “She doesn’t reply to my WeChat messages. Something’s really wrong.”

Xingxing pursed her lips and hesitated, then asked, "Should we call the police?"

My roommate pondered for a few seconds, then nodded: "Okay."

The two immediately climbed out of bed, changed their clothes, and quickly went out.

Meanwhile, Xiao Moyan found Jiang Yuan.

"Little Mo Yan, you're here?" Jiang Yuan saw Little Mo Yan's figure by the windowsill, pushed open the glass window, and said with a smile, "Will you stay here tonight?"

Little Ink Swallow immediately said, "Yuan Yuan, I've discovered a female human tied to a tree."

"Humans tied to trees?" Jiang Yuan frowned, her expression turning serious. "Where were they found in those trees?"

"Yan will take you there!"

"Okay, wait for me."

Jiang Yuan quickly changed her clothes and went downstairs.

After everyone in her family had gone to bed, she sent a message in the family group chat and drove off.

She dialed Si Heng's number from the car, and he answered quickly. Jiang Yuan explained the situation to him, "Xiao Moyan, take me there now."

“Location sharing, I’ll come find you.” Si Heng’s tone was serious. “Be careful.”

"Okay." Jiang Yuan hung up the phone and shared her real-time location in the group chat.

The place Xiao Moyan mentioned was a small forest located in the suburbs. Jiang Yuan didn't see a single car along the way, only dim streetlights and a hazy mist.

She gripped the steering wheel tighter involuntarily. "This place is a bit scary."

Upon hearing her words, Xiao Moyan quickly said, "Yuanyuan, don't be afraid, it's not scary. The bad guys are gone, and now the little forest is full of Yan's friends."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan slightly raised the corners of her lips. "Then I'm not afraid anymore."

"That's good!"

"Did you see any bad guys?"

"Yan didn't see anything; Yan only saw the female human tied to the tree."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan nodded, planning to ask the other small animals once they got into the forest.

"Yuan Yuan, there's no road ahead," Xiao Mo Yan reminded her. "We have to get out of the car and walk in."

"I understand." Jiang Yuan picked up her phone; Si Heng was almost catching up. "Wait for my police colleague."

Five minutes later, the black SUV stopped behind Jiang Yuan's car.

Si Heng, Meng Xiaokai, and He Lewei got out of the car.

Jiang Yuan also pushed open the car door and got out of the driver's seat, asking softly, "Shall we go in now?"

"Okay," Si Heng replied in a deep voice.

The four followed Xiao Moyan into the forest.

He Lewei and Meng Xiaokai walked ahead, holding flashlights. As they walked, the latter said, "What a coincidence! Just now, two college students went to report that their roommates had gone missing after meeting their online boyfriends. And here in Jiang Yuan, we heard from a bird that there's a woman tied up in the forest. Could it be like Zeng Shirui's case, where she's a missing person?"

He Le raised an eyebrow: "It's not impossible."

Animal calls could be heard from time to time. After walking for about five minutes, Jiang Yuan asked softly, "Are we almost there?"

"It's just ahead." Little Ink Swallow turned back to look at her, flapping its wings. "We're almost there."

Meng Xiaokai's flashlight swept around and finally landed on a tree not far away. A woman was tied to the huge tree trunk, her red dress particularly eye-catching.

Little Ink Swallow immediately exclaimed, "Yes! It's that female!"

The four men immediately quickened their pace and stepped forward, the flashlight beam shining on the woman's bloodless face.

Jiang Yuan frowned and asked in a low voice, "Is he still breathing?"

Si Heng stepped closer, reached out and felt the woman's carotid artery. His eyes narrowed, his expression turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "She's already dead."

Upon hearing this, He Lewei quickly took out his phone to take pictures and record the scene, while Meng Xiaokai notified the bureau to send more police officers and arrange for a forensic doctor to be present.

No one expected that the person was already dead.

Jiang Yuan turned her head to look at the little Mo Yan on her shoulder, "How long has she been tied up here?"

Xiao Moyan replied, "Yan heard from a friend that she was carried here by a man in black in the middle of the night last night."

"When the men in black carried her here, did she move?"

Xiao Moyan didn't know the answer to this question. "I don't know either. I'll have to ask my friends."

"Could we call over a friend who knows about this?"

“Okay!” Little Black Swallow spread her wings and shook them. “I’ll go call my friends over now.”

As Jiang Yuan watched it disappear into the twilight and mist, she suddenly remembered the new task the system had issued during the day.

Is the real culprit the one who killed this woman?
She stared at the woman's pale face, and the more she looked, the more she felt she had seen that face somewhere before.
