My advise that wait tillthan found opponent address and do not forget to prsent the cheque within six months of its date, if you present after expiry of 6 months, so there will no case u/s 138.
Keep at a final chance and re-prsent the same ans send the notice at last known address. otherwise may difficult.

You need to locate the address of the accused and then proceed. Otherwise, you will not succeed.
However, you will have other options like (1)lodging a police complaint for cheating as he has closed his account and ran away and (2) file a civil suit for recovery of money as and when you would be able to locate but within the limitation period of three years.
