Yun Chunxue disappeared on the third day of her detention without having been formally interrogated—everything was still unresolved.
Gong Heng ordered a complete media blackout on the incident.
After learning of the events, Mu Mian expressed her surprise, "How could she have possibly left?"
Gong Heng chuckled, "It was to be expected. The people behind her were certain to rescue her."
"Who exactly is behind this?"
"You'll find out soon enough."
In reality, this case was like a headless public affair, the kidnapper who had accused Yun Chunxue was already dead.
Gong Heng had drugged him.
It was the same drug used when Gong Mian turned into a vegetative state. Once the effect wore off, the person was already dead—leaving no evidence behind.
This must have been what Gong Heng was thinking, otherwise why would he go out of his way to have his lover take special care of that man?
Step by step, Gong Heng was drawing his adversaries out.
