Without realizing it, more than an hour had passed, and he suddenly felt a bit restless. Thus, he left the laboratory and headed back to his office, only to find the office door was ajar, and Rongrong was gone.
With his long legs, He Xiuyu searched the entire Big White Building quickly, within a few minutes. Rongrong wasn't there, and nobody had seen a little girl leave.
He Xiuyu went back to where Rongrong had been sleeping. The shoes were gone, the outer clothes were gone, the room was tidy and clean, but he saw a green glass ball on the bed.
Could it be Xiao Hu?
Without any hesitation, He Xiuyu dashed outside. The guard at the door confirmed his guess; indeed, Mr. Li's son, Li Mingguang, came to the base on his own.
Since the guard was on duty, he had a colleague take Xiao Hu to the duty office.
The duty office was empty.
Xiao Hu wasn't there at all.
