He and Mo Li are the real protagonists.
But now, the vast Restaurant is empty, with only him and Xiao Fang present.
Every table is set with utensils, cold dishes, and drinks.
Yet, there is not a single person sitting at the tables.
It feels like a mournful banquet.
The lighting is very dim, adding an eerie atmosphere to the hall.
A few Waitstaff are huddled together in a corner, chatting quietly.
"I've been a Waitstaff for so many years, and I've never encountered a situation like this."
"Isn't that right? But it's also nice; we can finally take it easy tonight. We're usually exhausted."
"That's true, but this atmosphere is quite unsettling."
Their voices were soft, but the Restaurant was so quiet that their words clearly reached Xiao Ran and Xiao Fang's ears.
A few waitstaff suddenly started talking about yesterday's shooting incident.
"What is this? Yesterday's event was even more terrifying. Did you know that someone shot and killed people in the Jinshang Community?"
"I heard about it too. I have a hometown friend who lives nearby, and he said there was blood everywhere. Several people died, and many were injured."
"Really? That's so scary. The person who did it must be a lunatic."
"Isn't that the truth?"
"I hope all the injured can recover."
"Let's hope so. I heard the first girl who got shot was sitting in a car, and they rushed her to the hospital right away. I wonder if she can be saved."
"Sigh, the security situation is getting worse these days."
Xiao Ran listened mechanically, hearing but not really absorbing the conversation.
His mind was entirely on Mo Li.
It was already past seven o'clock; any wedding that was delayed should be taking place by now.
But Mo Li still hadn't arrived.
Xiao Fang pondered as he walked to the side and made a phone call to his subordinate.
"Is there still no news about Ji Yan and Mo Li?"
The usually kind voice now carried a hint of displeasure.
The efficiency of these subordinates was too low.
However, he couldn't blame them entirely; they were just regular office workers who had never dealt with matters like finding people.
Perhaps, he needed to hire a private detective?
His subordinate replied nervously, "Xiao Assistant General, I was just about to report to you. We have investigated Ji Yan's background, and his past is quite complicated."
