บท 72: Chapter 69 Disappearance

As evening arrived, the rainfall began to patter again, and thunderclouds rumbled faintly in the sky.

Officer Zhang, reluctantly casting a glance at the dance studio's windows, still started the car and drove the priest toward the urban village.

The city was quite old, and there were many small villages nestled among the forests of steel and concrete, where sewer water unsettlingly gushed onto streets, sprayed by the passage of car tires.

Lanruo's place wasn't far from Qiuzi's residence either; although they didn't share an apartment, they both rented rooms within the same area.

"They came up to the north together a few years ago but split up because they found the shared apartment too cramped," Officer Zhang said as she drove. "Last night, although no one saw Lanruo go to the dance studio, her room was also empty."

"It's a pity there are so few surveillance cameras in this city, otherwise we could have checked more thoroughly," the priest said with a nod.
