Gu Tingchen also squinted his eyes and looked, "It should be, and there are traces of human activities."

"That's great." Su Yuebai couldn't help jumping up, "If someone is really there, we will be saved."

Gu Tingchen was also very pleasantly surprised. The words about traces of people just now were just nonsense to comfort Su Yuebai. He didn't expect that there would be people on this small island, and they would find them so easily.

"We can't jump to conclusions like this. Let's go to the front and have a look before we talk. No matter what, it's good to find a place to stay temporarily."

As they walked in, they found a two-story hut with a fence made of wood in front of the hut.

"Is there really someone living here?" Su Yuebai looked at the house curiously, "I don't know what kind of people would live in this kind of place."

Gu Tingchen thought more than she did, "Although there is a hut here, I don't know if anyone is here now."

"Let's go over and have a look." Su Yuebai dragged Gu Tingchen to the fence, "Hello, we are tourists who got here accidentally, is there anyone inside?"

There was the sound of objects colliding in the room, and after a while, the door creaked open, and a man poked his head out and looked outside.

The positions of Su Yuebai and Gu Tingchen were fairly conspicuous, and the other party saw them at a glance, "You say you are tourists who came here in trouble?"

Su Yebai was very happy to see that there was someone there, "Yes, we were rowing on the sea and got lost accidentally, so we just rested on this island yesterday."

The other party glanced at the two of them, as if to confirm their identities. After looking at the two of them from beginning to end, the other party changed his unfamiliar attitude and opened the door readily.

"Since this is the case, I'm afraid you didn't rest last night, okay? Come in and sit down."

Gu Tingchen readily pulled Su Yuebai into the fence, and the two entered the door holding hands.

"Let me introduce you first. My name is Liu Yuan, and I'm the owner of this island."

Gu Tingchen reached out his hand and shook him, "My name is Gu Tingchen, and this is my wife Su Yuebai."

"You said you two got lost, how did you drift so far? You even ran to my island."

The owner of the house poured them two cups of tea, sat down and asked strangely, "Even if you start from the coastline closest to here, it's not easy to come here."

"We don't know what happened, we ran so far." Gu Tingchen smiled helplessly, "When we found out that something was wrong, we were already lost, and we had to come to this island."

Seeing that the two of them really didn't know what was going on, Liu Yuan didn't continue to ask, and waved his hand indifferently.

"If you don't know, you don't know. Those who come are guests. Since you are all here, as the host, I have the obligation to entertain you well."

"Do you usually live here alone?" Su Yuebai couldn't help asking curiously.

"Of course I don't live here often, so you are lucky."

Liu Yuan didn't mind Su Yuebai's question, poured himself another cup of tea, and replied, "I just come here for vacation occasionally to enjoy a self-sufficient life."

"Then we are indeed lucky enough." Su Yuebai was afraid for a while, if Liu Yuan wasn't here when they came today, things would definitely not go so smoothly.

Liu Yuan raised his head and glanced at Su Yuebai's frightened expression, and said, "There is no signal on this island. If I'm not there, you are indeed in trouble. I can send you back after dinner."

Hearing this, the eyes of both of them brightened. Gu Tingchen restrained his surprise and thanked Liu Yuan, "This is really troublesome for you. If there is a chance, we will definitely thank you."

Liu Yuan waved his hand generously, "There's nothing to be thankful for, it's just a little effort, I'm going back anyway."

Su Yue couldn't help but asked curiously, "How do you know that we went to the same place as you?"

"What's so strange about this?" Liu Yuan looked at her with a smile, "My small island is only one coast away from the nearest coast. If it is farther away, your small boats will not be able to get across."

After saying this, Liu Yuan couldn't help but look at the two of them in surprise, "But it's the first time I've heard that someone can row a boat from such a far away."

Su Yuebai looked away in embarrassment, "Actually, the two of us didn't expect..."

Seeing the embarrassment of the two people, Liu Yuan couldn't help laughing, and finally stopped bringing up this topic.

"You two rest here for a while, and I will prepare lunch."

Su Yuebai seemed to have found other topics and hurriedly got up, not to mention they were too embarrassed to watch others busy.

"Let's help you, is there anything we can do?"

Liu Yuan was also not polite to them, and after thinking about it, he said, "There is nothing good for you to eat in this place, right? Go and help me dispose of the fish."

Su Yuebai and Gu Tingchen gritted their teeth, and walked to the side of the fish that were still alive and kicking.

"You haven't even peeled off the scales of this fish, how do you want to eat it?"

Seeing the half-dead fish with bumpy scales in Gu Tingchen's hands, Su Yuebai hated it.

Gu Tingchen choked for a moment, turned his head and saw the fish in Su Yuebai's hand, and laughed again.

"You still have the nerve to talk about me. You have pierced the guts of the fish in your hand."

"Can you blame me? Usually the fish we cook are processed, who knows which one is its guts?"

……

The situation of Su Yuebai and the others has completely stabilized, but the people in the magazine store who found the two missing were quite frightened.

"Miss Yuebai and the others haven't come back yet?"

It was the little assistant who first discovered that Su Yuebai and the others were missing. It wasn't until two days later when the assistant tried to find Su Yuebai but couldn't find them, did he find out that the two were gone.

"The couple went out to play and haven't come back yet?" someone guessed hesitantly.

But as soon as the words came out, there was a voice of refutation, "How is it possible? How long has it passed? Even if he really went out to play, he should reply to the message."

Someone beside him tremblingly said, "Is something wrong? Otherwise, no matter where I am, I won't be able to contact you."

"I seem to have seen the two of them go out to sea that day, maybe something happened at sea..."

This kind of speculation made everyone silent, and everyone thought of something not very good.

In the end, the assistant broke the deadlock, "Don't think about such nonsense here, no matter where they are now, there is a high probability that they are missing anyway, so hurry up and call the police!"

Everyone reacted one after another, "Yes, it is better to call the police as soon as possible, the longer the delay, the greater the danger."

Amid the anxiety of everyone, the assistant gritted his teeth and pressed the alarm button, and took a few colleagues who had seen Su Yuebai before she disappeared, and went to the police station together.

"You mean your boss is missing?" The policeman who received them said businesslike, "Tell me the time and place of the disappearance."

The assistant tried hard to recall the scene of the day, "In the evening of the day before yesterday, we got together for a barbecue and had dinner. We had been playing truth or dare. At some point, Sister Yuebai and Mr. Gu disappeared."

"I seem to have seen them leave." A female colleague who came next to her added, "But from the looks of the two of them, it looks like they are going for a walk."

"Didn't you see them after that?" the police officer asked while taking notes.

"I happened to go out to play later, and saw Sister Yuebai and the others on the beach."

The colleague who spoke seemed hesitant, "But then I saw that their direction seemed to be chartering a boat to go out to sea."

These words made the policeman who had been lowering his head raise his eyes, "Are you sure these two people are planning to go to sea?"

The colleague panicked and didn't know whether to nod or shake his head, "I'm not sure, I just saw the two of them going in that direction, and I vaguely heard Miss Yuebai talking about the boat."

The policeman's pen stopped, and he paused for a while before continuing to ask, "What clothes were the two missing people wearing?"

The assistant recalled vaguely, "Sister Yuebai was wearing a white coat, and Mr. Gu's clothes seemed to be blue-gray."

The policeman frowned, asked a few more routine questions, and told them to wait aside.

"How could this be? It's obvious that we went out to play together, but all the people who played disappeared."

Seeing the police leaving, several people were sitting crowded together, and one of the female colleagues bowed her head and said in frustration.

"What's the use of talking about it now? I can only hope that Sister Yuebai and the others will come back soon. I believe they will be fine."

The assistant said firmly, constantly giving himself psychological hints, "Maybe they just ran off to play, and the phone is broken or out of battery or something."

Although he didn't speak, everyone knew that this possibility was very low, and the atmosphere became even more depressed for a while.

The policeman who asked them to wait here just came back and said, "I have been missing for more than 24 hours. Since you and the two of them are colleagues, you should know who their family members are?"

The assistant and the others looked at each other, and said hesitantly, "Sister Yuebai, I know she has an older brother, so we can't get in touch with Mr. Gu's family."

A female colleague immediately said, "But you can also look into it. The one who disappeared with Sister Yuebai...is Su Yuebai. It is Gu Tingchen, the president of the Gu Group."

A flash of surprise flashed in the policeman's eyes, and he quickly recovered the expression on his face, and said to the assistant, "In this case, you are responsible for notifying the family members of one of them."

The assistant nodded, and under the nervous gaze of the others, he gritted his teeth and called Lu Wenqi.

"Hello? Is it Boss Lu? Sister Yuebai is missing."
