"Mr. Lu."
James sat on the swivel chair. When Samuel pushed the door open and came in, he glanced at him blandly and then nodded slightly.
Samuel closed the door. He felt a bit nervous and uneasy while walking from the door to James's desk.
"Haven't you found them yet?"
Hearing this, Samuel shook his head, "Not yet." James hadn't come to the company for a few days. He knew that he came for this matter.
"What the hell?" James frowned and said very unpleasantly, "When I asked you to investigate it last time, you said there were not many clues, so it was hard to find them. What about now? Huh?"
Samuel said with a crying face, "Mr. Lu, I've really tried my best to find them. I have a lot of things to deal with these days, but I don't dare to neglect what you ordered me to do."
"So, even if you don't neglect it, you still haven't found them?"
Samuel coughed lightly and said in a dilemma, "Well... Mr. Lu, I spent a lot of effort to look for them. I spent a large sum of money and sent a lot of people to do this, but it didn't work."
What could he do? Didn't he want to solve this problem earlier? He didn't want to be busy at all! He was busy every day and had to do so many difficult things. He even had dark eye circles on his face, but he had never complained about it. However, James actually disliked and doubted him! How could he be so unjust?
James said angrily, "Didn't I ask you to check the surveillance video? We even saw him. But why can't you get some clues?" The more he said, the more depressed he became, "Even if he left the hospital at that time, can't you find him through the positioning system? Can't you find out where he had been? How about those detectives you hired? Don't they understand this? Are they good- for-nothings?"
"Mr. Lu, I reported to you this morning that he is very experienced, so he knows how to solve the problem for himself. After receiving your call, I immediately rushed to the hospital and checked the surveillance video. That man didn't go to see a doctor, which means that there should be no problem with his body."
"I guess that he went there to see someone." Samuel hesitated and knitted his eyebrows tightly, "But I really don't know whom he went to see."
James's face darkened. He lit up a cigarette for himself irritably and took deep draws on it.
Samuel scratched his hair, "That man went to the hospital by motorbike. When he arrived at the hospital, he walked from the sixth floor of the inpatient department to the tenth floor. He opened the door of every ward on each floor. After he opened it, he stood at the door. He stood in each ward for one or two minutes, and then he went to the next ward."
"Mr. Lu, at first, I thought he went to the hospital because he was not feeling well, but I was wrong. I guess that he went there to see someone. But according to what he did, we don't even know whom he went to see, do we?" That was why he said that the man was experienced. He could even think of such a cunning way, and they didn't know whom he was visiting.
James was silent for a while, and then he asked, "Did he stay in any room for the longest time?"
"No."
Hearing this, James frowned harder.
"Is there a copy of the surveillance video?"
"Yeah, do you want to have a look?"
"Show me."
After a while, Samuel took over the USB he had copied. James turned on his computer and began to watch it carefully.
"Mr. Lu, I didn't say anything wrong, did I?" Samuel stood next to James, staring at the screen, "He stood at each door for almost the same time and didn't go in or talk. We can't even look for him through the one he visited."
Seeing that James did not speak, Samuel had to shut up, standing aside and watching.
