Chapter 312: Captured?
“Disappeared?” Chu Nan was immediately stunned, “What do you mean by disappeared? Wait, why did you come to ask me this?”
Dunleavy waved his hand, his expression still anxious.
“There’s no need to hide it in front of me. Elvy told me everything about her meeting you. This is not important now. Tell me, did she go find you now?”
Chu Nan had a blank expression. He thought for a moment and replied, “She did say that she wanted me to wait for her here, but half an hour passed and she still hasn’t appeared. Moreover, I sent her a few messages just now, but she didn’t answer. I was still hesitating about whether to ask you about the situation.”
“She didn’t look for you?” Dunleavy frowned with a serious expression. “Chu Nan, this is not a joke. Tell me, is she by your side now?”
“Nonsense, of course not.” Seeing that Dunleavy actually thought that he was helping Elvy hide, Chu Nan also frowned, “Tell me, what’s going on? How did Elvy disappear? Isn’t she going to Star Cloud Academy to report today? She previously agreed to leave with me.”
“I know. Although she hid it from her parents, she did not hide it from me because she knew that I knew you.” Dunleavy sighed, “Originally, she happily packed her things and planned to leave for Star Cloud Academy with you today, but later… later on, she quarreled with Father and ran out in a fit of anger.”
“Huh? This is considered running away from home?” The corners of Chu Nan’s mouth twitched.
What was going on?
Just because she quarreled with her father, she ran away?
…
However, when he recalled that she was only 14 years old this year and was a young girl in her adolescence, it was normal for her to be easily impulsive.
“She should be fine, right? She was only angry for a moment. She should return after some time.” Chu Nan comforted.
“I wouldn’t be so worried usually, but during this period of time, on Planet Macaw… In any case, there’s a problem. It’s not very safe outside. Her identity is very sensitive, so I’m afraid she…” At this point, Dunleavy suddenly shook his head, “Alright, you don’t have to worry about these things. Chu Nan, if Elvy takes the initiative to contact you, I hope you can help me stabilize her emotions and inform me.”
“No problem.” Chu Nan nodded and asked in confusion, “Speaking of which, can’t you use your personal terminal to locate her? This won’t work for ordinary people, but it shouldn’t be a problem for your family, right?”
Dunleavy smiled bitterly. He raised his right hand and picked up the communication terminal.
“Look, this is her personal terminal.”
Chu Nan was immediately speechless.
Elvy was really ruthless. In order to not let her family track her, she even took off her personal terminal.
However, in modern society, if she left her personal terminal, it would be inconvenient everywhere. Even if she ran, she could not run far.
When he thought of this, Chu Nan comforted Dunleavy and expressed that once there was news of Elvy, he would definitely inform her immediately and close the communication.
He raised his head and looked around, but he still did not see Elvy. Chu Nan could not help but have a headache.
There was only an hour and a half until the space flight set off. From here to the space station and boarding the ship, he still needed to reserve half an hour. In other words, he only had an hour at most to find Elvy.
But what could he do in an hour?
Chu Nan thought for a moment and decided to wait and see.
If Elvy did not arrive in an hour, he would probably have to inform Dunleavy and report to Star Cloud Academy first.
To put it bluntly, it was just a young girl arguing with her family. It was not a big deal.
Of course, it was not a solution to sit here and wait. Chu Nan stood up and started to search around the space station to see if he could encounter Elvy.
Although she did not bring a personal terminal, as long as she still wanted to contact Chu Nan, she would definitely be able to.
This space station was not very large. Chu Nan found a few entrances and even showed the staff at the entrance with Elvy’s image. He asked if they had seen her, but they all received a negative answer. In the end, he still could not find her.
After looking around, another half an hour passed.
Chu Nan lowered his head to look at his personal terminal. After thinking for a moment, he gave up on the thought of contacting Dunleavy and decided to search again.
If he still could not find it, he decided to tell Dunleavy and leave first.
When he raised his head and was about to walk towards the nearest exit, three people suddenly walked over and nearly collided with Chu Nan.
Fortunately, Chu Nan’s reaction was extremely fast and he hurriedly moved aside.
The person who nearly collided with Chu Nan glared at him fiercely, but he did not do anything and hurriedly walked out.
Chu Nan suddenly turned around and looked at the three of them in shock.
When he passed by those three people just now, he clearly heard one of them say the words “Elvy”!
Chu Nan’s first thought was that these three people should have been sent by Dunleavy’s family to find Elvy, but he immediately rejected this thought.
The three of them had fierce gazes and their expressions were a little nervous and wary. They did not look like they were here to find someone.
“Are they trying to harm Elvy?”
Chu Nan frowned slightly and quietly followed behind the three of them. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the lips of the person in the middle.
That person was currently whispering something as if he was talking to others.
The “Elvy” Chu Nan had heard earlier came out of his mouth.
That person spoke very quickly, but Chu Nan relied on his powerful A.I.-like data processing ability to completely memorize his lip movements while quietly following behind the three of them.
After a while, the three of them had already walked out of the exit and arrived outside the space station. They boarded a private floating shuttle.
Chu Nan frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment before quickly finding a rental shuttle outside the space station. He sat on it and pointed at the floating shuttle that the three of them were on.
“Follow that shuttle.”
The driver did not ask further. He nodded and immediately operated the shuttle to follow behind.
Chu Nan stared at the floating shuttle in front of him for a while before lowering his head to open his personal terminal. He downloaded a lip translation plug-in and entered all the lip movements he had recorded.
According to the translation of the plug-in, everything else was nonsense to Chu Nan, but one of the sentences immediately made his heart tighten.
“Elvy has been captured? Alright, we’ll retreat now.”
