The courtyard was filled with an air of anxiety and irritability.
If it weren't for the urge to learn more information, Zheng Tan would definitely keep his distance; the atmosphere was too oppressive.
The Master wasn't home today; he had been invited over by an old friend in the provincial city a couple of days ago. Having heard that something happened in the courtyard, he didn't bother about the other side and hurried back immediately; he also asked for help from contacts in the provincial city.
The person who took Pei Jie wasn't a resident here. Local residents, including Da Kang, had never seen that person before. After abducting Pei Jie from outside the courtyard, the kidnapper quickly left. The traces Ermao and the others could follow led only to the roadside, where there were tire tracks of a motorcycle, then the trail was too hard to track further.
