30. Disappearance

After Professor Zhou left, Lam also asked Chen if she knew where Professor Zhou was going. Chen said that she didn't know where Professor Zhou went, but only knew that Professor Zhou vaguely went to the north in the end, and there was no source of more detailed information.

Lam felt relieved, because at least he knew the general whereabouts of Professor Zhou, and he also knew that Professor Zhou was fine. Immediately, Lam chatted with Chen about the project cooperation between the laboratory and Chen.

Lam's suggestion was to let it go for a while, and waited until the new head of the laboratory arrived. Chen's answer was that the cooperation can be slowed down, but the robot would continue to be provided to the outside world, and the supply of robots would be reduced as much as possible.

In the next step, Chen believed that it was still necessary to improve the intelligence level of artificial intelligence, so as to gain greater competitiveness in the market, which required Lam's follow-up research and development.

However, the most urgent task was to continue to improve the various technologies of the robot's "brain", such as the impact resistance and aesthetics of the shell, the running speed of the small computer in the "brain", etc., which was what Chen and the others need to update and iterate.

Lam also explained to Chen that through so many experiments, it was impossible to break through Gödel's incompleteness theorem with the current level of human technology. If it could be realized, then it was really a manifestation of God. Lam joked humorously.

Hearing what Lam said, Chen couldn't help but think of the eye's existence and the long bloody river she saw when her spirit was polluted last time. Since these things could exist, what was impossible? So she advised Lam not to be too pessimistic, in case a breakthrough was really achieved.

When Lam came home from get off work in the laboratory after chatting with Chen, he felt something was wrong, and then he realized that Sun hadn't come to ask him to get off work together these days, so he felt something was wrong.

Thinking of Sun, Lam couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. A few days ago, he was still in a state of irritability, so he said something unpleasant to her. At that time, he also wanted to apologize to her, but he didn't say it in the end.

Lam wondered if he should go to the experimental area where she was and wait for her to get off work.Then he apologized in person, and treat her to a meal in exchange for her forgiveness.

Just did it! When he arrived, he asked and found out that Sun had already left work and went back with Muzi.

Lam looked at his watch, and it turned out that it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, so he said goodbye to his colleagues who were still in the laboratory and went back, thinking about going to her home to say sorry.

When he got home, Lam hurried back to put down his things, and then carefully knocked on the door of Sun 's house opposite. It was Sun 's mother who opened the door.

"Auntie, it's me. I want to ask if Zoe is at home?" Lam asked her mother with a bitter face at this time, and then he also talked about the recent conflict between the two.

"I see she's been depressed recently. It turns out that you two had conflicts again. It's okay. " But then she frowned and said, "Zoe hasn't come back at this point. She usually comes back very early. Maybe something happened today. Lam, come to have a rest. When Zoe came back, auntie will knock on the door and called you."

Lam thanked her and went back first, thinking about what to say to Sun when she came back later.

As soon as Lam went back, he waited for a long time, but he still didn't see Zoe's mother calling him. He looked at the clock above the TV, and it was past twelve o'clock.

Maybe she forgot. I should have fallen asleep at this point, and I'd better go there early tomorrow to plead guilty. Lam thought this and planed to go to sleep directly.

Just thinking about it, there was a knock on the door.

As soon as Lam opened the door, he saw Zoe's mother was panic-stricken and told him that Sun hadn't come back at this point. She called Zoe many times but the phone was turned off.

Lam comforted her not to be in a hurry. Maybe something was delayed, so he wanted to call her friend first to ask.

Thinking that Muzi came back with Sun today, would she be at Muzi's place? With this question in mind, Lam directly called Muzi, hoping that Muzi was not asleep at this time.

The first call was not connected, so Lam continued to make the second call, but fortunately the call was connected shortly after this call.

"Hey, Lam, what's the matter with you? I'm sorry........I just fell asleep." Muzi murmured with a little confusion on the other end of the phone.

Lam made a long story short, saying that Sun hadn't come back yet, and then he asked Muzi if Sun told her where she was going when Muzi got off work with her today.

Muzi recalled for a while, and said: "No, we separated at the bus stop when we got off work today. She was very tired today, and she said she would go home early to rest."

"Recall again please! Did she say anything else?" Lam began to realize that something was wrong at this moment, so he continued to ask.

"Well, before she left, she still complained to me about you, saying that you bullied her." Muzi was a little embarrassed to say what Sun complained about Lam.

"This? Forget it! Now is not the time to worry about this. If she hasn't come back, I will go out to find her. Can you tell me where Sun often goes?"

After Muzi told him where Sun had been recently, Lam was about to hang up the phone after thanking Muzi.

However Muzi on the other end of the phone suddenly asked, "Lam, where are you now? Are you going out to Look for Zoe, right? Send me the address, and I'll go and look for it with you."

Lam wanted to refuse, for it was not safe for a girl to come out by herself at such a late hour, but Muzi was extremely persistent. Thinking of the strength of multiple people, he finally agreed.

After telling Muzi to pay attention to safety on the way, Lam waited for Muzi's arrival at Sun's house.

Lam's mother and Lam's father also came over when they heard the sound, and Sun's father also tried to comfort his wife not to worry.

It was almost one o'clock in the morning when Muzi arrived at Sun's house, and Sun still didn't come back at this time.

After much consideration, Lam decided to let Muzi stay at Sun's house to accompany Sun's parents. It's really not safe for a girl to go out so late. After explaining the benefits to Muzi. Muzi finally agreed.

"Uncle and auntie, you are waiting for news here, and I will call you as soon as I find Zoe. " Lam persuaded.

Lam went to the places where he remembered Sun would go to when she was in a bad mood, and also went to some places that Muzi said Sun had been to recently, but in the end it was still nothing, so he had to go back and tell them the result.

When he returned to Sun's house, Lam told Sun's parents the result. At this time, Sun hadn't returned all night. Her parents, and Lam's parents were all anxious.

Lam finally had to seek help from the police. So he took the two parents to the police station to report the case, but on the way there, he was afraid that the police station might not file a case for Sun's disappearance within 24 hours.

After receiving the report, the police station immediately launched a procedural investigation, which completely dispelled Lam's worries.

It turned out that the state stipulated that after a missing person was missing, the case couldnot be opened for investigation after 24 hours.

In the case of missing women and children, as long as there was a disappearance, the public security organs must immediately open the case for investigation.

"Sir, please help us find our daughter. We only have one daughter. I beg you." The Zoe's parents burst into tears and said repeatedly to the police in charge of handling the case.

"You don't have to do this. We will do our best to help you find your daughter." The police hurriedly comforted the parents.

"Thank you." The parents quickly thanked them.

It should be because of not sleeping all night and worrying that Zoe's mother couldn't stand up. Lam's parents quickly helped Zoe's mother to rest on the bench beside her, and she was going to be questioned by the police later.

While being questioned, Lam received a call from a stranger.

Seeing that it was an unfamiliar and strange number, Lam wanted to hang up directly, but suddenly thought of something, so he raised his mobile phone, winked at the policeman, signaled not to speak, and then turned on the speaker to play it.

Seeing this, the police quickly turned on the recorder and the information location tracking device beside him.

"Lam, right?" The voice on the other side was obviously processed, and it was impossible to tell the difference between male and female.

"Yes. Who you are?" Lam asked cautiously.

"Don't care who I am. Zoe Sun is in my hands now. You come here by yourself at this address before ten o'clock, and don't call the police. Let me tell you, if you dare to call the police, I will make you regret it." After finishing speaking , that strange number sent an address.

"How can I be sure that Zoe Sun is in your hands? If it's in your hands, how can I be sure that Zoe Sun is safe now." Lam tried to calm himself down and asked.

"It's safe now, but if you don't come over later, it's hard to say whether it's safe or not. I say it again. You must come here alone, but don't call the police. " After finishing speaking, the opposite hung up the phone and sent a video.

Lam quickly opened the video, saw the face inside clearly, and found that it was Sun. This face was real, not a deep fake.

In the video, Sun was firmly tied to a chair, and her mouth was sealed with tape. She was struggling vigorously. Seeing that the struggle was useless, she could only stare angrily at the front of the video.

At this moment, Chen was discussing the research results with the man in the white suit she met at the last auction.

Chen read the research report, and called him to ask him for advice on some things she didn't understand very well.

The man in the white suit took advantage of the opportunity to ask Chen out for coffee, and continued to discuss the research report by the way. Chen agreed.

The man in the white suit was Luther, a returnee from the United States. According to him, his family was mainly engaged in business, and researching cultural relics was his hobby.

Looking at the man talking eloquently in front of him, Chen's thoughts drifted to the distance, where they should have already started to act.

"Miss Chen, I wonder if I can call you Elaine?" Luther asked gently and politely.

"Sure, you can." Chen smiled slightly.
