Compared to before, Fran undoubtedly looked a little more uneasy. He even looked around unconsciously as he spoke, for fear of being overheard.
Jessica.
The appearance of another female classmate appeared in Fu Qian's mind.
Is this really the rule of horror movies? Something will happen to blondes?
"Come in and talk."
Seeing Fran's frightened expression, he stepped aside and motioned for her to come in before talking.
Fran was not polite and squeezed directly into the room sideways.
"What exactly happened?"
Close the door before paying, and even close the window thoughtfully.
call!
This scene successfully made Fran relax a little and he was able to answer the questions in front of him faster.
"Just now, I felt a little uneasy in the room alone because of what happened today, so I wanted to talk to Jessica."
"Unexpectedly, when I went to her room, I found that the door was open and she was not in it either."
"Both she and Cartman are not here?"
I knew before I paid that these two people lived together.
"Well, there's no one in the room."
"Could it be that two people went out together?"
"Impossible! Not to mention that the car is still in the yard. I have been staring outside since I came back to make sure that no one has left."
"Well, that's a bit strange."
"But that doesn't seem to be enough to explain anything. And since both of them are not here, why do you emphasize that Jessica is missing?"
"Because her things aren't there either."
Fran's tone was extremely serious.
"I looked carefully and found that the luggage was still there, but various belongings belonging to Jessica were missing. I tried to contact her but couldn't."
Although this girl's reaction is a bit slow, her thinking is still thorough.
"Then you came to my place?"
"Um."
Fran understood the meaning of Fu Qian's words and responded.
"I didn't realize it before, but now that I think about it, Ray and Cartman seem a little weird, and I don't want to go find them."
"Understood."
He nodded and made no comment before paying.
"Anyway, I feel worse and worse here, and the missing Mrs. Harold... Do you think the two are related? Do you want to inform Chief Jones?"
After successfully finding a similar person in his mind, Fran's mood became obviously much more stable, and he spoke faster after his thinking became more active.
Of course I don't mind this.
Facing Fran's proposal, Fu Qian thought to himself.
With a very reasonable reason to contact the police again, even if Jessica is really missing, there is a high probability that everyone will move downstairs. It is natural to observe the results of Jones' investigation.
But not everyone may think so.
Although things are getting more and more strange, Fu Qian doesn't believe that the three Cartmans are really as pure as white lotuses.
On their trip out, they most likely encountered something.
But now that Mrs. Harold is missing, they will stick to their previous stance no matter what and will not admit anything.
At the same time, they definitely still don't want to have much communication with the police.
"A reasonable choice, but if possible, it would be best to find Cartman to confirm."
Fu Qian stood up while answering, and walked to the door under Fran's doubtful eyes.
Click!
A second later, Fu Qian opened the door again.
Almost instantly, two figures stood at attention outside the door.
Looking up, it was Ray and Cartman.
Quietly, the two people actually reached the door.
Fu Qian's sudden opening of the door obviously caught them off guard.
"you--"
The surprise on Fu Qian's face was so natural.
"Fran and I are looking for you if we have something to do."
As an ordinary person, Fu Qian's current hearing ability was actually not enough for him to confirm that there were two people hiding outside the door.
But for professional workers, some things are basic operations.
From Fu Qian's point of view, if he and Fran decided to come down to find Jones, it would undoubtedly not be a good thing for Ray and Cartman.
When something is not a good thing, it is best to anticipate the possible behavior of the victim.
…
Ray and Cartman obviously couldn't confirm whether Fu Qian opened the door on purpose.
After a slight hesitation, they quickly convinced themselves to accept the setting that "he wanted to find the two of them, but he just opened the door and bumped into them."
"We happen to have something to ask you for."
The two looked at each other, and finally Cartman spoke up and explained why they were outside.
"Oh, what's the matter?"
Fu Qian took the conversation naturally and let the other person speak first.
"...Jessica is missing."
Not realizing that Fu Qian had unknowingly taken over the conversation, Cartman continued to answer.
"It seems like it's really missing."
There was no change in his expression before paying, and he looked back at Fran in the room.
Just now, her body stiffened almost instantly.
Cartman and his wife were right outside the door, and she didn't even know when they came or if she heard what she said. These thoughts were spinning wildly in her head.
The strange disappearance, the old building, and the unusually behaving companions successfully ignited the fear in her heart.
However, her ability to cope with the next payment made her relax a little.
"Fran is here, that's good."
At this time, Lei Shun from outside looked over and looked relieved.
"After we found out Jessica was missing just now, we went to Fran's place, but we thought she was missing too."
"When did you find out?"
I didn't question anything before paying, so I just followed the question.
"Not long ago, when I returned to the house, I found that Jessica was not there. At first I thought she had gone to chat with Fran... then I realized something was wrong."
Cartman replied.
"Because the belongings are not there? I heard."
"I just had a chat with Fran, and I'm about to discuss with you whether we should notify Sheriff Jones."
"After all, things seem a little weird now, what do you think?"
…
The two people outside hesitated for a moment.
"The one thing that can be confirmed so far is that Jessica did not leave from the main entrance. Considering that this place is relatively large and there are some places that we have not been to before, should we look for it first in case she just got lost?"
"After all, even if the Sheriff and the others come over, it will take a while. Jessica may be scared by herself over time."
The next moment Lei suggested.
"OK!"
Fran didn't even ask for his opinion before paying, and directly expressed his approval.
Regardless of how genuine the concern in this person's tone is, there is nothing wrong with the suggestion itself.
He also has the same curiosity about this place.
On the other hand, given the current strange situation, Fu Qian cannot confirm whether insisting on going to the police chief directly will cause a conflict.
Even if he takes the two men down first, Jones's freedom of movement may be affected due to Jones' ambiguous attitude.
"So where do we start?"
