Chapter 10, The Missing Girl

Feeling. Mo Qianren said淡淡的道, his pale face showing a reflection of the smiling face in the photo in his indifferent eyes, "It is abnormal for a person to be perfect like this"

Creaking sound

It is now mine

This is not the first time; every time he sees Mu Rulan's slender figure slightly bent over as she diligently studies and works on problems late into the night, he feels a pang of heartache. The genius that others speak of is, in his eyes, merely a sister who evokes sympathy. Every step she takes is the result of her hard work and perseverance. What right do those people have to repeatedly gamble on whether someone will surpass her?

"Brother, I am scared," the white rabbit timidly tugged at the gray rabbit's gray fur, looking up with big, watery eyes at the castle that appeared somewhat ominous.

"Come on! Why do you think she's suspicious?" Lu Zimeng couldn't help but raise his voice a little, unable to understand how his friend could find someone as perfect and outstanding as Mu Rulan suspicious, yet he couldn't pinpoint exactly what made him feel that way.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps crunching on the dry leaves was heard, crackling away. It turned out to be two adorable children dressed in white and gray rabbit costumes, looking no more than five or six years old, and they looked exactly alike; they were twins.

A black sports car was parked at the entrance, and Mo Qianren, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, exuded a cool and aloof demeanor. Beneath his tousled black bangs, his indifferent yet seemingly all-seeing eyes followed Mu Rulan's figure as it gradually faded into the distance

Mu Rulin seemed to be startled, as a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead, and his hands felt icy. He noticed the worried expression on Mu Rulan's face and, with a somewhat stiff nod, said, "I am fine"

A figure clad in white approached with a leisurely gait, softly humming a tune, the corners of their mouth curling into a clean and warm smile, making their way towards the house that gradually blended into the darkening surroundings

They did not know how they had sneaked through the iron gate, secretly intending to infiltrate the villa

Mu Rulin walked in step by step, but could not help turning back to look at the police car, her eyes filled with a hint of fear

Pfft

Has the lovely younger brother cried again

"It is possible," Mo Qianren said coldly, "I sensed the smell of crime on her..."

Lu Zimeng was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly thought of something, "What did you say?"

Lu Zimeng rolled his eyes, too lazy to respond to him, "Are you going back to the police station or coming to my place? My mom said she would host a welcome dinner for you tonight"

The gray rabbit was very excited, his little heart beating a bit fast. He was also worried that there would be no place to explore when he returned with his parents. Unexpectedly, this place resembled his grandmother's house so much. Did it also have an old witch living inside, just like his grandmother?

With her back to the door and facing the window, Mu Rulan lowered her head and let out a silent chuckle, her smile still warm and captivating. On her desk lay ten completed exam papers from the college entrance examinations she had downloaded online over the past few years. She gently stifled a yawn, ... um ... . ... Studying is quite exhausting, so in her previous life, she merely got by. However, unexpectedly, in this life, she had actually reached this point. Indeed, when a person becomes obsessed, they can accomplish anything.

Mu Rulan slightly furrowed her brows and nodded, "When did this happen?"

Those annoying bastards

Lu Zimeng rolled his eyes and said, "Perfectly abnormal, could it be that he is a pervert?"

Mo Qianren withdrew his gaze, closed the car window, and looked down at the photos and information on his lap, "Very suspicious"

The outdoor sunset gradually descends, as night and day alternate, marking the moment of twilight.

When Mu Rulin was studying with Mu Rulan in her room until 10:30, she was sent back to sleep by Mu Rulan. She ruffled his hair and told him that children should go to bed early and get up early to be healthy. "Sister has already given you extra lessons, so why worry about not passing your exams?"

It seems to be Miss Jin's second daughter, Jin Molih!

Jasmine

... ...

The afterglow of the setting sun envelops the black and gray villa, its walls somewhat mottled, and the large black iron gate showing signs of rust, giving it an ancient appearance. Coupled with such colors, it resembles a sinister haunted castle

"Then hurry back to class, everything must be arranged before tomorrow." Mu Rulan said as she led the group through the school gate

Two little rabbits had just climbed to the third floor when they suddenly heard a series of sounds, as if someone was urgently banging on the door. The two little rabbits were startled, and the white rabbit almost cried out. The gray rabbit, while tightening his grip, called him a coward. Unable to resist their overwhelming curiosity, they slowly walked towards the source of the sound, which seemed to be coming from the room at the very end.

Mu Rulan glanced at Mu Rusen, then at the police car at the school gate. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she casually turned her head and noticed that Mu Rulin seemed somewhat distracted. "What’s wrong?"

Hey... this is my car! How can someone so brazenly drive someone away and take their car? I can't believe he got up early this morning from his cozy bed to pick someone up at the airport, not only serving as a free driver for several hours, but now he has to pitifully take a taxi back home?

Look, it's just like the witch's house

It is said that the report was made this morning. The night before last, Jin Moli did not return home. However, that girl loves to play and often stays out, so her family did not pay much attention. It was only later when her sister called and could not reach her, and after asking her friends, no one knew where she was, that they realized something was wrong. Thus, they reported it to the police this morning. As Li Qing spoke, he reached out to help Mu Rulan with her backpack, but before he could touch it, Mu Rusen shot him a fierce glare like a little beast and hugged the backpack in Mu Rulan's hands to his chest.

Mu Rulin embraced the book and left Mu Rulan's room. When he got up to drink water around 2 o'clock, he noticed that his sister's room light was on. He quietly pushed open the door and saw his sister seriously studying, flipping through her books with paper and pen in hand. Suddenly, he felt a pang of heartache, and before he knew it, his eyes had become moist.

Go

Mu Rulan, Mu Rusen, and Mu Rulin arrived at school together and discovered that a police car was parked at the school gate. Many students appeared somewhat anxious. Upon inquiring, Mu Rulan learned that another incident had occurred. Following several cases of disappearances two years ago, someone had gone missing again, and it was a person from their Liusilan Academy

She tidied the desk, and a piece of paper fell to the ground. Oh, on the white drawing paper, there is a sketch of a mannequin design.

The gray rabbit, accompanied by the white rabbit, stealthily made its way inside, quietly climbing the stairs. Wearing fluffy little rabbit shoes, their steps on the wooden floor were also light. No one knew that... two innocent little rabbits had entered this dark gray house.

I have something to attend to, so I will come to you later tonight. You may leave now. Mo Qian raised his head and closed his eyelids. His eyelashes were very dark and long, and his skin was extremely pale; however, he exuded a remarkable elegance. Even while sitting with his legs crossed in the back seat of the car, he appeared exceedingly pleasing to the eye

In the distance, the lean and clean figure of Mo Qianren is also moving slowly.

Lu Zimeng, sitting in the driver's seat, slightly tilted his head and asked, "What do you feel now?"

... ...

With a crack, the old door lock was skillfully picked open by the child. The gray rabbit chuckled mischievously, its eyes sparkling. This door was identical to the one at grandmother's house, and prying it open posed no challenge.

The gray rabbit did not look back at all, holding a long iron wire in its hand, which it was inserting into the crack of the door and fiddling with. In a tender voice, it said: "Coward, there must be a witch inside. Remember, when there are apples later, do not eat them."

The following day

The heavy-looking but actually not very heavy gray-black door was slowly pushed open by two rabbits, creating a small gap. The gray rabbit lay at the door, its large eyes scanning the room. It saw the oddly patterned dark red carpet, ... as well as the dark red sofa set with the same peculiar pattern, the fireplace used for burning coal in winter, and the magnificent crystal chandelier above it ...

He had a document resting on his lap, with a photograph attached to it. Sunlight streamed in through the slightly lowered car window, casting a blinding white light upon it, where the clean and warm smile of the girl was faintly visible.
