Oh no, my deskmate is a yandere!

The chances of something like what just happened are even lower than choking to death while eating.

What exactly is Jiang Nianxi doing?

Yang An then made several more phone calls.

Without exception, no one answered the phone.

For some reason... a faint fear crept up from the soles of his feet, as if to engulf him entirely.

Is it the fear of losing control of the unknown?

Or... is it simply fear of Jiang Nianxi's disappearance?

His mind was already somewhat blank at this point, and he didn't have time to delve into these inexplicable emotions.

As if possessed, his gaze wandered around for a while before finally settling on the phone he had just put down.

Open it again.

This time, instead of making a phone call, he opened that... location software.

My fingertips were trembling slightly.

Depend on.

He cursed under his breath.

What's troubling me?

"..."

……

"Phew... the rain tonight is really heavy."

Jiang Nianxi had just stepped out of the apartment building and was looking at the drizzling rain outside when she spoke softly.

They were only a step apart, yet it felt like two completely different worlds.

It wasn't a thunderstorm, but the rainfall really exceeded her expectations.

Fortunately, I was wearing an extra waterproof jacket.

With a sun umbrella, that should be enough, right?

Jiang Nianxi bent down and opened the umbrella handle, the small umbrella surface fully unfurling in the air.

It's said that sun umbrellas aren't very waterproof, but after trying them a few times, I didn't see a significant difference.

It's just that... the area that can block rain is indeed quite small.

She thought that since she was petite and had a waterproof jacket, she should be fine outside.

"Splash..."

As soon as I took a step, the umbrella came into contact with countless raindrops, and I immediately felt a noticeable pressure on the handle in my hand.

The canopy between the ribs also visibly sags.

"...Hmm, looks like I'll need to buy a new umbrella on the way."

She muttered to herself, looking down at her shoes that had already stepped into the puddle.

I could faintly feel a slight dampness on my toes.

I'll need to change my shoes when I get back.

This is a bit bad...

"Pat-pat, pat-pat, pat..."

The alleyway has long been paved, losing its muddy state and yielding a large amount of water.

One step, then another.

Water splashed everywhere, seeping into the fabric of the trousers and splashing onto the cuffs.

The dampness on the toes gradually spread.

"Pat...pat..."

"..."

The rain is so heavy...

Outside the umbrella, the rain was pouring down, almost blurring the view; I could only barely make out what was a dozen meters away.

Sometimes, when the cold wind blows, a lot of rainwater will be blown onto your body.

Jiang Nianxi's eyelashes trembled slightly as the road ahead suddenly opened up, with occasional vehicles passing by.

She looked at it, her eyes somewhat lost.

The feeling of standing alone in the rain... is really hard to describe.

It felt as if the world was ethereal, separated by a layer of glass.

She was inside the glass partition; the world was outside the glass.

They do not interfere with each other, yet they are intricately connected.

"..."

Ok……

Oh, right, what was I supposed to do again?

Jiang Nianxi's eyes suddenly cleared, her body swayed, and she remembered her target.

Go home to get something.

We need to hurry, we can't keep our little one waiting at home.

Just thinking about the scene that was about to unfold that evening, she couldn't help but smile, a hint of joy rising in her heart.

Whether the world is real or not doesn't matter anymore.

As long as one person is by my side from beginning to end, everything else... doesn't matter.

By the way, my little one has been much more obedient lately.

Compared to the initial "coercion and enticement," Yang An, whose edges have been smoothed out by time, is much more palatable.

Don't you need to use methods to pursue someone?

The only difference is that others are more moderate, while she is more radical.

That's all...

……

My adorable husband: [Are you back?]

Two minutes later.

My adorable husband: [Jiang Nianxi?]

……

"Maybe it's just a location error..."

However, Jiang Nianxi has two roles.

The probability of this error is ridiculously low.

Yang An knew that it was nothing more than wishful thinking.

He opened two software programs at the same time, and the two positioning methods were almost identical, locking onto a single area.

With careful observation, you can spot it in front of a bookstore on a bustling avenue.

The two positions seemed to be dead, remaining motionless ever since Yang An began observing them.

It was eerily quiet.

Even software that can monitor the screen and sound is showing that the other party is still on the main screen and there is no sound at all...

Something must have happened.

A sense of danger surged through my heart.

He could no longer pretend to be calm.

I threw on some thick clothes and shoes, and then put my hand on the doorknob.

I pressed it, but it wouldn't budge.

Press it down harder.

There was only a metallic clanging sound, but the door didn't open.

It's locked from the inside...

As usual, Jiang Nianxi locked the door from the inside.

Although Yang An actually had a backup key.

……

It's still raining.

Jiang Nianxi took the only umbrella in the house, leaving Yang An with no choice but to put on a hat. Looking at the torrential rain outside the building entrance, he thought of the figure that turned around and smiled at him, and his heart trembled slightly.

Never mind, let's find them first.

He cursed under his breath, not caring about anything else, and plunged into the pouring rain.

That stupid woman, not only has she not come home for so long, but she also doesn't answer her phone or reply to her messages.

Now it's all fixed, the location isn't moving anymore.

The jacket I was wearing wasn't waterproof, and the rainwater quickly seeped into my body and hat.

Jiang Nianxi, if something happens to you, it'll be difficult to handle...

"Huff... huff..."

The sounds of wind and breathing mingled together.

Yang An didn't know how long he had been running, but he was already soaked through with rain, making his hat useless.

Panting, I picked up my phone and pressed the power button.

The phone then lit up.

The rain had made a mess of the screen, but the location could still be barely discerned.

But the red dot that I've been so concerned about remains completely still.

What exactly happened?

This is a mystery that has been lingering in Yang An's mind ever since he left home.

They were abducted by human traffickers, knocked unconscious, drugged, or suddenly died on the way...

Fortunately, these were just temporary fantasies.

Given Jiang Nianxi's terrifying strength and physical abilities, there's no way she could have done that...

Damn it, what are you thinking? The most important thing right now is to find the person and see what happened.

Yang An quickly put away his phone and started running, following the location of the bookstore he remembered.

Being confined to home for an extended period of time and severely lacking sufficient exercise has resulted in muscles that are far less endurance and explosive than before; I'm already out of breath after just a few alleyways.

Adding to the problem was the severe weather, with torrential rain pouring down.

The water inside the clothes became an invisible burden.

It was as if he was running ahead, dragging several bags of cement strapped to his back and legs.

But he dared not stop.

An hour and a half had passed since Jiang Nianxi went missing.

The closer one gets to that spot, the louder one's chest pounds, as if it's being drummed.

I feel like my heart is going to explode...

"Huff... huff..."
