Chapter 497 His daughter went missing before
"Meow? Other people?" The white cat thought for a moment, then shook its head. "No one else appeared."

Jiang Yuan frowned and asked, "Then where did this older sister go?"

“That older sister is asleep,” the white cat replied.

The orange cat asked in shock, "Meow? Taking a bath while sleeping?"

White cat: "The cat doesn't know, but that's what the cat sees."

Jiang Yuan: "Did the uncle take that older sister away?"

"Yes," the white cat replied. "The uncle put my sister in the car and took her away."

Jiang Yuan frowned and looked at Director Liu, then recounted the incident: "That man didn't call the police, and he took Aidi away."

Director Liu's face also turned serious. If that were really the case, then Sun Aidi's situation was also very dangerous, a young girl staying with a strange man.

Jiang Yuan asked again, "Little white cat, did you see which direction the car drove off in?"

The white cat thought for a moment and said, "I'm sorry, sister, I wasn't looking carefully."

"It's alright," Jiang Yuan said softly. "You've already helped a lot, thank you."

White cat: "From now on, I will definitely observe more carefully!"

The orange cat and the tabby cat meowed at the same time: "The cat too!"

Jiang Yuan slightly curled the corners of her lips, finding it cute.

"Quack?" Tuan Tuan Duck stretched its neck to look at her, curious and expectant. "Sister, have you found Xiao Di?"

Jiang Yuan's smile faded, and she said regretfully, "Not yet."

Tuan Tuan duck instantly shrank back in frustration.

Director Liu is on the phone, ordering someone to investigate vehicles that appeared near Lionbridge Street in the early hours of the previous night.

As dusk gradually spread across the sky, growing deeper and deeper, Jiang Yuan, carrying Tuan Tuan duck, walked to the railing by the river and gazed down at the water.

How desperate must Sun Aidi have been to make the difficult decision to end her own life?
As Jiang Yuan was thinking, she suddenly felt her trouser leg being pulled.

She looked down and saw a skinny little yellow dog.

The little yellow dog tilted its head back and greeted her, "Hello, human sister."

Jiang Yuan focused her gaze on it, raised an eyebrow and said, "Hello, little yellow dog."

"Are you asking about the human sister who jumped into the river?" the little yellow dog asked.

Jiang Yuan's eyes brightened slightly, and she nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, did you see her jump into the river?"

“Woof saw it,” the little yellow dog said. “Woof also knows which human grandpa took her away.”

"That's great!" Jiang Yuan said with delight. "Could you tell me where she was taken? I can bring you some food."

Unexpectedly, the little yellow dog shook its head and said, "Woof, I don't want food, I just want you to do me a favor."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan didn't ask what kind of help she needed and agreed immediately.

Small animals always have very simple requests.

"The human grandpa took away the human sister who jumped into the river." The little yellow dog barked, "I know where that grandpa lives, I can take you there."

“Okay.” Jiang Yuan brought it back to Director Liu. “Director Liu, this little yellow dog might know where Aidi is.”

Upon hearing this, Director Liu looked at Jiang Yuan, then at the little yellow dog, and said, "Then—please lead the way, little yellow dog."

The little yellow dog barked and walked ahead on all fours.

Xiao Rao found it amazing, like she was recording an animated film.

First it was the pet duck, then the stray cat, and now there's a little yellow dog that's been actively providing clues. The little yellow dog is leading the way, its steps looking very steady and reliable.

It carried Jiang Yuan and the other two through the streets and alleys, finally stopping in front of a farmer's house.

The little yellow dog turned to look at Jiang Yuan and said, "We're here. This is it."

It thought for a moment, then added with a woof, "But I don't know which room the human grandpa lives in, I need to look for him."

"Okay, you've already helped us a lot." Jiang Yuan bent down and ruffled the little yellow dog's head. "Then would you like to come upstairs with us and help us identify which old man he is?"

"Yes, that's fine," the little yellow dog nodded.

The farmer's house has a gate access control system. Just as Xiao Rao was about to ask the nearby shopkeepers if anyone lived in this building and asked them to open the door for him, someone happened to come down from upstairs.

Xiao Rao held the door open, letting Jiang Yuan and Director Liu go inside first.

Just as Jiang Yuan was about to take a step, she heard the little yellow dog bark: "Woof~ It's this old man! Human sister, no need to go upstairs, it's him!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan turned around and caught up with the old man in the white T-shirt.

"Hello sir, can I ask you something?"

The old man looked to be in his fifties or sixties, with gray hair. He stopped when he heard the voice, turned his head to look at Jiang Yuan, and asked, "What is it?"

Jiang Yuan asked, "Grandpa, did you go to Shiqiao Street in the early hours of the night before last?"

"No," the old man shook his head. "I didn't go there."

Upon hearing this, the little yellow dog immediately barked, "Woof! The human grandpa is lying! He clearly went! Woof! I saw him take the human sister who jumped into the river away!"

"Are you sure?" Jiang Yuan frowned slightly.

The old man nodded: "I'm sure, I didn't go there. I was at home taking care of my daughter the night before last! My daughter is sick."

"Grandpa..." Jiang Yuan wanted to say something, but saw the old man wave his hand impatiently, mutter something, and leave.

As the old man walked, he muttered to himself, "My daughter is hungry. I need to go buy groceries and cook for her."

Jiang Yuan wanted to chase after them, but then she heard voices coming from the fruit shop next door.

“Uncle Yong isn’t in good mental health.” The fruit shop owner walked to the door. “His daughter went missing a while ago, and he’s been acting crazy ever since.”

Jiang Yuan tilted her head to look at the other person, "Is his name Uncle Yong?"

"Yes." The fruit shop owner looked at her curiously. "Who are you? What do you need Uncle Yong for?"

Jiang Yuan said calmly, "There's something I'd like to ask him."

The fruit shop owner glanced at Director Liu and Xiao Rao beside her, her eyes filled with interest. "Is there any news about Uncle Yong's daughter?"

“No,” Jiang Yuan shook her head gently, “it’s something else.”

Seeing that she was tight-lipped and couldn't get anything out of her, the fruit shop owner simply said "Oh" and went back inside.

Director Liu stared at the blurry figure and said to Xiao Rao, "Ask the landlord for information about Uncle Yong."

"Okay," Xiao Rao nodded in agreement.

After a while, Uncle Yong returned carrying a bag of vegetables and a bag of meat, a smile on his face, still muttering to himself, "Buying vegetables and meat to cook for my daughter."

Jiang Yuan stepped forward and stopped Uncle Yong again, "Uncle Yong, are you going home to cook for your daughter?"

"That's right!" Uncle Yong said, "My daughter loves my stir-fried zucchini with pork the most!"

"That's great." Jiang Yuan smiled. "Uncle Yong, you're such a good father."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Yong's smile vanished. He stared blankly at her, his eyes slightly reddening, and shook his head vigorously, saying, "No, I'm not a good father. I didn't take good care of my daughter."

He lost his daughter.
