Nangong Yaoling and Qin Yi arrived on Phuket Island at dawn on the second day.
They hurriedly took a boat to the hotel where Liang Shaochen and Xia Xiaonuan were staying right after landing.
Liang Shaochen had spent the night searching the nearby waters with the police boats, examining all potential nearby islands and passing vessels, but to no avail.
He returned totally dispirited, sitting on the sofa like a lost soul.
Nangong Yaoling rushed into the hotel lobby, with Qin Yi following closely. The officer who came to pick them up, the embassy representative, and the hotel manager all trailed behind him. The curly-haired Thai officer kept talking beside him, explaining the situation non-stop, trying to calm him down, saying the police were investigating.
The Chinese male representative knew his identity and accompanied with faint smiles, assuring him that no matter the outcome, there would be an explanation.
