Nan Zhengde took a sleeping pill and was able to have a restful sleep. He woke up in the morning feeling refreshed.

While he was having breakfast, Chai Hua reported the new findings. “Master Chen's car has been located, but there aren't any signs of damage on it.”

“He's not in the car?”

“No. The local police also did not receive any report regarding this,” Chai Hua replied.

Nan Zhengde took a bite of his food. “Was the car parked normally?”

“Yes, it was parked on the wider part of a roadside.”

“How far is it from where his car was parked to where he wanted to go?” Nan Zhengde asked again.

“It's quite far; almost a hundred kilometers.”

“How's the traffic?”

“The road is currently undergoing repairs, so there are traffic jams occasionally. It's difficult to navigate on it.”

Chai Hua took out his phone and pulled up a picture that his subordinates had sent him.

In the picture, Nan Chen's car was covered in yellow dust and filthy.

Nan Zhengde said nothing as he continued to have his breakfast.

Chai Hua remained silent as well, for he knew that Nan Zhengde was mulling over the matter.

“Mr. Nan, do not worry too much. As Master Chen's car is fine, that must mean he is fine as well,” Chai Hua comforted him in a gentle voice.

“There are a few possibilities. One is that Chen was stopped on the road and abducted. However, this is unlikely to have happened as there is traffic on the road. Kidnapping him is very risky as the chance of having someone witness it is high. Hence, they wouldn't choose this method,” Nan Zhengde analyzed.

Chai Hua nodded.

“The second possibility is that Nan Chen felt that driving there was taking too long, got on another mode of transport, and was held hostage by someone.”

Chai Hua piped up, “A motorcycle. The road is undergoing repairs, so it's common for jams to occur. If it's a motorcycle, it would be a lot more efficient than a regular car.”

Nan Zhengde slammed the table and exclaimed, “Yes! Tell them to visit the nearby area and ask the villagers and road repair workers if Nan Chen had purchased or rented a motorcycle locally. Tell them to keep asking questions. A lead should come up.”

“I've already instructed them to do so,” Chai Hua said.

Nan Zhengde gave him a look of approval. As expected of the Nan family's housekeeper. Chai Hua knew exactly what to do even without instruction.

“That's great.”
