Chapter 263 - He Jian Gets A Call From Mo Roulan

It was evening time now.

Inside the deep forests, Mo Roulan wiped the sweat on her forehead with the back of her hand. A sigh full of helplessness escaped from her lips.

Her eyes would sometimes start to fill with tears on their own.

She didn't know where she should search for Mo Chen.

She was just walking and walking for the last hour.

Mo Roulan licked her dry lips and took out her phone from her bag. Fortunately, she still had some battery on her phone. Her eyes brightened when she saw that she had network also. 

She had thought that she would call He Jian after getting inside the forest to ask about Mo Chen. However, Mo Roulan realized after walking inside that finding the network inside the forest was very difficult.

Why did it not come to her mind before?

Now she finally had some network so she immediately dialed He Jian's number.

"Mr. He, please try to understand. We have already sent our team and they are searching for that boy. We can't just take so many officers to the forest to search for just one person. We nee… "

"Two persons."

He Jian interrupted the officer and said coldly.

The officer gulped audibly and corrected himself.

"Two persons. So I was saying that we need people here too …to manage everything."

The officer was about to say more when he felt his phone ringing inside his pocket so he stopped and took it out.

His eyes flickered when he saw that it was a call from his superior. As if already guessing something he looked at He Jian who was looking towards the forests and then picked the call.

"Sir…Yes Sir…But Sir...….Okay …Alright Sir."

God knows what the person on the other side said but the officer's lips were pressed in a thin line when he put down the phone a few seconds later.

He looked at He Jian and said politely

"I will prepare a team as soon as possible. The team will enter just half an hour later with you, Mr. He."

"Fifteen minutes later."

He Jian finally moved his eyes away from the forest entrance and looked at the officer.

"They should have those walkie talkie with them."

The officer had an exasperated expression on her face.     

Even half an hour was very less to prepare a big team as He Jian wanted. How was he going to manage everything in fifteen minutes!

However, he could do nothing except do what He Jian was asking him to do.

Nodding his head, he turned around to do the said task as soon as possible.

Just at this moment, He Jian felt the phone in his hand ringing. He frowned as he raised his hand to look at the phone but when he saw the number and the name of the caller, the frown on his forehead was replaced by the surprise. 

He immediately slid the screen to answer the call and said

"Lanlan…where are you?"

"Jian…did you find Mo Chen?"

Frustration and disapproval flashed through He Jian's eyes when his question was not answered. However, he was afraid that Mo Roulan will hang up so he responded patiently at the same time he walked to Chu Feng who was making the arrangements with the officer to go inside the forest.

When Chu Feng turned around, he saw his boss pointing towards his phone and then mouthing Lanlan.

Chu Feng immediately understood what his boss was saying. He hurriedly walked a few steps away and called someone.

"Hello…yes. Boss wants to know the location of a number."

Chu Feng then told the person Mo Roulan's number and waited for him to trace the location. On the other hand, He Jian didn't hear anything from Mo Roulan's side after he told her that Mo Chen has not been found yet.

He was afraid that she has already hung up or she didn't have the network.

It was going to be dark soon. He knew very well how dangerous it would be for Mo Roulan to be inside the forest at that time.

So he said to her hurriedly

"I will find Mo Chen. Don't worry."

He Jian didn't want Mo Roulan to hang up so he continued to talk to her about Mo Chen.

"The teacher said that Mo Chen disappeared very suddenly. They had given some activities to the students and the students were divided into groups. Mo Chen group had two other boys. Those boys are saying that they had felt someone's presence around when they separated from others to complete the activity. The three of them were together and then a few moments later, they suddenly found out that Mo Chen was not with them." 

He Jian didn't hear anything from another side. So he called out in a panicked voice

"Lanlan…are you there?"

"Yes"

A whisper came from another side.

Mo Roulan was currently sitting under a tree with a helpless and scared expression on her face.

"He Jian"

She called He Jian suddenly by his name. It was not the first time. She had called him by his name before also.

But He Jian still felt a certain part of his heart twitching in response. However, Mo Roulan's next words made him afraid again.     

"I am so afraid."

His blue eyes softened but his lips were pressed in a thin line. A moment later, he reprimanded her

"Why didn't you feel afraid before going inside?"

Then as if he felt he was being too hard, he said gently

"I will be there soon. I will fi…"

"No!"

Mo Roulan shouted suddenly on the other side. She got up from under the tree and then said seriously to He Jian.

"Don't come here. You …you need to be out there only."

He Jian frowned and his blue eyes were again going cold.

Does she think that he is really going to leave her inside there alone?

At the same time, He Jian looked at Chu Feng questioningly but Chu Feng only shook his head in response.

He Jian's eyes went colder and with sight, Chu Feng asked the other side to hurry.

On the other hand, Mo Roulan said to He Jian hurriedly

"He Jian…investigate the people who had come to live in our neighborhood just a few weeks ago. They had left the building just a week ago.. I think that it is them who had taken Mo Chen away."
