Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Ye Xiao and Cen Pan were done and prepared to go downstairs for breakfast, they found the butler pacing back and forth anxiously at the staircase.
“What happened?”
Ye Xiao held Cen Pan’s waist and slowly went downstairs.
“Young Master, Kitten Ye is missing. When I went to call him for dinner at 8: 30 in the morning, there was no one in the room. I’ve searched the rest of the villa, but there was no sign of him.”
The butler furrowed his brows while looking worried.
He had only interacted with that child a few times, and he could tell that the child was timid and sensible. Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be a situation where he wandered out alone.
But now, he was gone. Could someone have sneaked into the house?
“Why would he disappear? He is quite sensible.”
Cen Pan was also very shocked by this situation.
The villa was so big. Even if he was playful, it was enough for him to run around in. How could he not be found at home? Moreover, that child was very timid and afraid of strangers.
Ye Xiao’s gaze darkened. “Don’t worry, let’s eat first. I’ll settle this.”
Cen Pan was still a little worried, but when she saw Ye Xiao’s calm demeanor, she felt much more at ease.
The two of them hurriedly ate some food and ran straight to the office.
Earlier, Chen Feng had called back and said that he had retrieved all the surveillance camera footage from around the villa. He would be able to find out what had happened as long as he checked.
By the time Ye Xiao and Cen Pan arrived at the company, Chen Feng had finished screening and locking down the surveillance footage. He had confirmed that Ye Xiaotian had left alone.
The last time he appeared in the surveillance footage was a minute ago on the main road along the river. From the looks of it, he was probably heading towards the Cross River Bridge.
“Don’t you feel that there’s something wrong with Kitten?”
Cen Pan stared at the surveillance footage and frowned slightly.
“What’s wrong?”
Chen Feng turned around and glanced at Cen Pan before he took a closer look at the laptop screen.
The child was walking well alone. No one bumped into him or followed him. There was nothing wrong with that.
“It’s indeed not right.” Ye Xiao raised his hand and touched his chin while his eyes narrowed slightly. “The way he walks is not right.”
“Walking posture?” Chen Feng was baffled.
On the other hand, Cen Pan clapped his hands, as if he had thought things through. “Yes, I remember that Kitten always walked with his back hunched very listlessly. Although he doesn’t look energetic when he walks in this scene, but…”
Cen Pan pointed at the figure on the screen and tilted his head. “His back is always straight and every step is very slow.”
“It’s normal for children to walk slowly, right?”
Chen Feng had never had much contact with children and was a little uncertain.
“Let’s go to the Cross River Bridge and find him.”
Ye Xiao didn’t care that Kitten Ye was walking abnormally. What he cared about was that if he couldn’t find the child, Cen Pan would be sad, so finding the child was the most important.
There were a few cameras at the Cross River Bridge that were not working, so they could not locate Kitten Ye’s location directly. They could only spread out to search for him.
Ye Xiao and Cen Pan headed for the Cross River Bridge while Chen Feng led a group of people along the main road to see if Kitten had stopped somewhere along the way.
In less than ten minutes, Ye Xiao and Cen Pan appeared on the bridge.
The Cross River Bridge spanned the entire river surface. There were more than 1,700 meters of people and cars.. They could only get out of the car and walk around.
