He was well aware of Li Zi's efficiency, there would be no situation of not being found.
Moreover, Shi Ran didn't have the ability to evade his search.
"Yes, we haven't found her yet," Li Zi reported the situation. "The last place her ID card appeared was in Lancheng. After that, her ID card, phone number, Alipay, WeChat, and other apps were never logged in again."
As things had developed to this point, it was no longer a simple matter of 'leaving'.
His expression became serious, "Continue the investigation."
Everything at this moment became complicated.
Tang Si's heart was filled with doubts, as if shrouded in gloom and confusion.
After hanging up the phone, a person surfaced in Tang Si's mind... Zhao Wuyan.
When he was injured in the car accident, he saw those videos of Shi Ran and Yuan Wei. He was filled with rage, thinking Shi Ran was playing him, loving Yuan Wei while sleeping with him. He had thought she only wanted to leave after taking fifty million.
But now, it seemed things were not as simple as they appeared.
Tang Si wanted to find Shi Ran, but the thought of her and Yuan Wei's intimate moments in the video made him unbearable.
After much internal struggle, Tang Si made another call, contacting someone to help find Shi Ran's whereabouts.
As for Qiao Yu, he had only gone out to buy lunch. When he returned, Tang Si had already disappeared.
Qiao Yu immediately called Tang Si, but he told Qiao Yu that he had been discharged from the hospital and no longer needed care.
Helpless, Qiao Yu immediately contacted Tang Si's elder brother, Tang Ziwei.
When Tang Ziwei learned that the recovered Tang Si had left the hospital, he personally called Tang Si.
"Where are you now?" Tang Ziwei directly questioned him on the phone, his tone laced with displeasure.
Tang Si replied directly, "I'm out for a walk, you don't need to come pick me up."
"I've already arranged with Wuyan to pick you up in Jiangnan this afternoon. If you leave now, what about Wuyan?"
"Does elder brother think I'm a minor without the right to freedom?"
"Xiao Si, you should know that Wuyan is very worried about you," he sighed. "During your hospitalization, Wuyan wanted to accompany you in Jiangnan. But with a child in her belly, she could only stay home to rest. You..."
Before Tang Ziwei could say more, Tang Si interrupted him, "My affairs don't require your concern."
With that, he directly hung up the phone.
As soon as the call ended, Tang Si received a call from Li Zi.
After investigating for several hours, Li Zi finally had a clue. "Mr. Tang, we've found Shi Ran. She's now in a small town in Jiangnan, where she's opened a clothing design studio called 'Ran Wei'."
"Send me the address."
Upon receiving the lead, Tang Si dared not delay.
After Li Zi sent the address, he turned on the navigation and headed straight for the 'Ran Wei' clothing design studio.
Ran Wei?
The 'Ran' from Shi Ran, and a homophone of the character 'Wei' from Yuan Wei?
Although he was angry, Tang Si couldn't put his mind at ease. He could only suppress his anger and drive over.
However, he was a bit surprised that Shi Ran was in Jiangnan.
The female friend he had added at the hospital, who went by the username 'Shi Guang Ren Ran' online, and spoke through voice chat in the game, had a voice exactly like Shi Ran's.
Could she be the real person?
Tang Si couldn't reach 'Shi Guang Ren Ran' now and had no way to video call for confirmation.
An hour later, Tang Si drove up to the 'Ran Wei' clothing design studio.
His car stopped by the roadside, and the design studio was not far away.
He sat in the car, lowered a crack in the window, took a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and began to smoke in silence.
Even though Shi Ran was less than thirty meters away, Tang Si suddenly lost the courage to go in.
