Chapter 214 Searching

Though puzzled, Lanny remained focused on his mission to find that old lady.

He had combed through nearly a dozen nursing homes in the city after learning that the old

woman had been placed in one. This one < happened to be the last stop on his search.

If he couldn't locate her here, he had planned to extend his search to the neighboring city's nursing homes.

Yet the nursing home proved to be quite vigilant. Avoiding suspicion, Lanny refrained from directly asking about the old woman by showing her photo. Instead, he engaged in conversations with elders in the garden, hoping to build rapport with someone who could help him gain entry.

After dedicating the entire afternoon to a conversation with an elderly man, Lanny befriended him.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, as the elderly man had to head back to his room, Lanny seized the chance to enter the nursing home, pretending to accompany him.

Cautious to avoid misunderstandings, Lanny discreetly navigated through the corridors, peeking through doors.

Starting on the fifth floor, he worked his way down. But on the fourth floor, he encountered a nurse and two security guards blocking his path.

Feeling uneasy, Lanny avoided the nurse's gaze and politely asked, "Is there something I can assist you with, miss?"

The nurse eyed him warily and turned to the security guards behind her, declaring, "It's him, the individual caught sneaking around on the surveillance cameras. There are no records of his visits. Remove him from the premises at once!"

After the nurse's final words, two hefty security guards flanked Lanny, escorting him out.
