Chapter 273 The Man With the Suitcase (1)

“Where is it?”

Henry then sent Kerry a location, and Kerry rushed there immediately.

“This is the room.” Henry said when Kerry arrived. It was a small room for rent, and it was simplydecorated. There were three beds, a few chairs and a table. There was a meal on the table and it wasstill hot. They also found a Rubik’s cube on bed and it was solved.

“How did you find this room?” Kerry was confused.

Henry answered: “I asked the people living downstairs, and they told me they heard a baby was cryinglast night, which confused them a lot because they are pretty sure there are only two men and awoman living in this room. And one man is wearing a mask all the time.”

Kerry’s eyes were blazing. He said: “The food is still hot, so they haven’t gone far. Go and find them!”

“Yes, sir.”

......

The young man with the suitcase hailed a taxi. He put the suitcase in the trunk and said to the driver:“I’m going to the seaside. Please be quick.”

“No problem.” The driver stepped on the gas peddle and the car zoomed away.

The driver was probably rather bored, so he tried to talk with the young man. He said: “Hey, why do youwant to go to the seaside now? It’s very hot.”

The young man only smiled. He didn’t say anything. So the driver stopped talking with him.

Half an hour later, the traffic became slow-moving. The young man poked his head out of the windowand looked ahead. He found a few police officers were doing checks, and there was also a police dog.

“Sir, why are there checks” The young man asked.

“I don’t know. I think it’s just a routine check. But these checks are getting more and more rigorousthese days.”

“Do they check every car?”

“Sure.” The driver laughed. “Maybe it’s because some important people are coming to Sky City.”

After a moment of silence, the young man said: “Sir, let’s go back. I don’t want to go to the seaside.”

The driver looked at him through the rear-viewing mirror, and asked: “Why?”

“It’s too hot. Just like what you said. I’ll go there this afternoon.” The young man answered flatly.

“So we go back?”

“Yeah. Let’s go back.”

“No problem.” The driver slowed down a little bit and turned around.

The young man took out his phone and sent someone a message.

......

At that time, Kerry and Henry were doing an extensive search in Nanluo Alley. They searched everybar and every hotel, but that woman was nowhere to be seen.

“Where can they be?”

Kerry stood in the center of Nanluo Alley. He looked at the continual bustle of people coming andgoing, and he didn’t know what to do. He asked his people to extend the searching area, and they kepton searching until the dusk approached, and they still couldn’t find anything.

Maybe, Gavin was not in this alley at all, and Venus’s dream couldn’t mean anything. And the hot foodin that room was just a coincidence.

Kerry finally gave up. He went back home, feeling depressed. He found Venus and Xiran were doingYoga in the gym, and he didn’t tell them what happened. He didn’t want to ruin their mood.

When he walked downstairs, he bumped into Tianye. Tianye fetched Venus and Xiran some water andhe was going to the gym to give them the water.

“When did you come back?” Tianye asked.

“Just now.” Kerry answered in a low voice.

“Did you find anything in Nanluo Alley?”

Kerry told him what happened.

Tianye frowned. He said: “Maybe I should ask our family doctor to give Venus a physical examination.If the baby is really a girl, then that means Venus’s dream is probably true, and Pingan is highly likely inSky City.”

Two months ago, Xiran told her parents that she was pregnant, and her parents were so excited. Theydon’t want Xiran to go to a hospital because there are always many people in the hospital and it is veryexhausting to wait in queues, so they spent lots of money and bought Xiran some medical equipment,including an ultrasound machine, a blood pressure monitor and so on, They also hired a famousobstetrics expert to be their family doctor.

Tianye wanted to pay for these things, but Xiran’s parents insisted. They say these things are a gift fortheir daughter, so Tianye and Xiyan accepted the gift gladly.

Kerry nodded after hearing Tianye’s proposal. He also thought about it on the way back. He found whatVenus said about her dream rather ridiculous.

Venus finished her exercise. She found Kerry was standing beside a window, and he looked sad andexhausted. Obviously, he didn’t find Pingan.

It was dinner time. The four of them sat at a table and had dinner. But the atmosphere was ratherheavy, and none of them was in a good mood.

Tianye was the one who broke the silence. He said: “Venus, tomorrow our family doctor will give Xirana physical examination, and you can also have a check-up. Let’s see whether you are going to have aboy or a girl, and then we can also know whether your dream can mean something or not.”

Venus knew what Tianye meant. So she agreed gladly.

Kerry stayed at Tianye’s place that night. He took a shower, and when he came out, he found Venuswas already deep in sleep. She always sleeps very fast since she got pregnant, except a few daysearlier when she couldn’t sleep because Pingan was lost and she was injured.novelbin

Kerry sneaked onto the bed, and held her in his arms gently.

“Have a good dream, Venus.” He whispered to her.

However, Venus didn’t have any dream the whole night.

The next morning, the family doctor arrived at Tianye’s place. She carried out an examination on Venusand she said: “She is having a girl. And the girl is very healthy. Don’t worry.”

Tianye, Kerry, Venus, and Xiran were so shocked. They all remembered what Venus said yesterday.

The doctor was confused. She asked: “What’s the matter? Don’t you want a baby girl?”

“Oh, of course we want a girl.” Kerry explained. “It’s something else we are thinking of. Don’t worry.”

“I see.”

Kerry then helped Venus out of the room, and it was Xiran’s turn to have a checkup.
