"You, how did you get the key to her house …"

"You, explain to me before you go in, Xiao." He was almost angry with shame.

However, when the door was opened, Jiang Han instantly shut his mouth.

His attention returned to the matter of Ronan's disappearance.

They both took off their shoes and put on their socks.

There was no one in the room. Jiang Han immediately walked in and searched every room. But none of them had left a mark.

The bed in the room was very neat, without any traces of having been touched. The curtains were not drawn.

Even the study room was spotless. The book had been arranged in its original position and shape before it left.

This caused the puzzlement in Jiang Han's heart to escalate into panic.

This seemed to indicate that Ruonan might not have succeeded in getting home the night before.

How could this be? He suddenly fell into a deep self-reproach.

Xiao He also blamed himself.

If one of them had insisted that night, she might have been right in front of them today.

But even so, who was going to send them off?

Xiao He was the first to think of this question. He gritted his teeth and said in his heart, there was no way he would give it to him.

He walked up and down the house.

He could only pray silently, that night Ruonan went back, this way he might be able to find some clues.

He remembered the duffel coat that Rhonan had been wearing only a few times.

He began to prostrate himself on the living room floor, going back and forth with the magnifying glass.

Until he desperately wanted to call Peng Wenyin and ask him to send the evidence team over.

He sat on the floor with his back against the sofa.

The instant he looked back, he suddenly became very excited.

That's right, the curvature of the sofa. He was in high spirits.

So he almost crawled on the floor and stroked the sofa, because it was the only way he could see the tiny curve of its surface, and he pressed his hand around it. Very well, it was a relatively new mark. It's not the kind of thing that's left behind by inertia all year round.

All of a sudden, his eyes seemed to have caught sight of something from the corner of his eyes.

For a moment, he didn't dare to look down anymore. He could not believe that this was just an illusion.

Because it was something he was familiar with, something he feared.

Finally, he saw it.

It was the symbol.

That red, weird smiley face.

This time, Xiao He's tensed nerves completely collapsed.

It was the clown. It was him again. It was that damn guy who kept haunting her.

Thus, he began to look for the root of the problem. Self-reproach and guilt gripped his heart like demons.

He walked into the room and roared crazily at Jiang Han, who had been observing the fish tank.

"Why didn't you call her that night? You only know how to hold her, why don't you know how to call her on the way! "

Jiang Han was frightened by his wild horse like emotions.

"What about you? Why don't you call her and you won't even think about your own problems? What's the use of saying all these now. "

Xiao He covered his face.

He could not imagine where that fellow had taken Ruonan, and what treatment he had already done.

He couldn't help thinking about these results.

When Jiang Han saw this, he sighed and said solemnly,

"Come here and take a look. There are shoe prints."

"There is no such thing as a shoe print in the entire room, yet this is the place."

Xiao He slapped his face, hoping that he would calm down for the time being.

Hearing this, he rushed over and squatted down to observe for a while. It was true that there was only a single footprint, and there was no previous footprint. Only a section appeared in front of the bedside table.

But from the length of the shoe print, it could be said to be a woman's shoe.

This confused Shaw He.

Could it be Ruonan herself?

Why did the footprints in front of him disappear?

Jiang Han, who was standing to the side, stared at the fish tank for a long time before suddenly speaking.

"Xiao He, look at this fish tank. Don't you feel that there was a fish inside before?"

Xiao He was so angry that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Of course. What are you going to do with it if you don't use it to raise fish?" Xiao He was about to reprimand Jiang Han for his logical error when he stopped himself.

"You mean, before Ruonan disappeared, the fish were still in the tank?"

"That's right."

Xiao He looked up at the small fishbowl on the bedside table.

The water inside was very clear, and although there were few aquatic plants, they were still in good condition. Most importantly, there were still a few pieces of fresh fish food floating on the surface of the water.

It didn't look like it had been there for more than three days, because no one would leave an empty fish tank in their bedroom, and the water plants inside weren't worth watching.

This clearly showed that the clown had indeed come.

But this print …

Xiao He's eyes continued to stare at the ground.

He took a deep breath. If the clown came to take Ruonan away, who would he target?

Of course it's me.

He suddenly remembered.

That's right, if it was me, how would he deal with me?

Suddenly, as he looked at the print, he felt more and more familiar.

Subconsciously, he opened the drawer of the bedside table.

Jiang Han cried out in alarm. It was a woman's shoe box.

"How do you know …"

"Did you bring gloves?"

"I did." As he spoke, Jiang Han pulled out a pair of gloves from his pocket.

Xiao He opened the lid of the shoe box.

It was empty.

But in the case of the sponge, there was a pair of shoes.

Staring at the familiar shoe box, Xiao He's heart was filled with mixed feelings.

His memories went back to the early autumn three years ago.

"Ruonan, open the bedside table and take a look."

"What's wrong?"

"No, take a look." Hearing his slightly restrained voice, Ruonan thought, How rare.

"What is it?"

"Just take a look and you'll know. Quick, take a look."

Ning Ruonan happily opened the shoe box, thinking that the steel man had finally awakened. However, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry the moment he put them on. The shoes were a size smaller than hers. What a surprise.

But it was such a surprise that warmed both of them for the rest of the autumn.

She was ecstatic to have a pair of shoes she would never be able to wear. They had only been in a relationship for two months. It was the first gift she had received from him.

Although both of them felt very happy at the time.

But now that he thought about it, Xiao He's heart couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt and regret.
