The Great Sage Returns from Ten Years of Imprisonment

Chapter 406 A Pawn in the Utilization of Waste

Li Wen quickly replied with a text message, informing Ling Yun of the situation.

Although her parents successfully immigrated to Canada, they are still a long way from obtaining Canadian citizenship, so they have not cancelled their Chinese citizenship.

Given their circumstances, the chances of finding a high-paying job and subsequently obtaining Canadian citizenship and settling down are extremely low.

More likely, after they run out of money and can't find suitable work, they will either end up homeless or use their last bit of money to buy plane tickets and slink back to Shanghai.

In the end, they didn't even have enough money to buy plane tickets home, and could only hope that Li Wen would transfer money to them.

When they returned to Shanghai, they had no house, no job, and life was a huge problem.

Fortunately, I have a daughter and relatives and friends, so even if things get tough, I won't starve to death!

After discussing the issue of nationality, Li Wen sent another message to Ling Yun.

"Yunzi, given what my parents did, I don't expect you to forgive them, I just hope you can help me call the police."

"Let the police deal with them, and leave the rest to fate. They brought this on themselves!"

Upon seeing this message, Ling Yun shook his head helplessly.

After a moment's thought, he gave his reply.

"My current identity is sensitive and special, and I am in enemy territory, so I really cannot handle this matter personally."

"But I'll have the relevant people come forward to find your parents. Whether they can be found or not depends on their fate. Wait for my news."

After sending the text message, he immediately opened his phone's contacts, found Deputy Director Zhang's number, and dialed it casually.

The call connected instantly, and Deputy Director Zhang's voice came through immediately.

"You called as soon as I got back to my room. Did something happen? Is it important?"

"If it's something important, you can come directly to my room. Don't talk on the phone; walls have ears."

Ling Yun smiled and then continued:

"It's a small matter, not worth going there to disturb your rest. It's the same as saying it on the phone."

"I just received a few text messages from my ex-girlfriend. Her parents have gone missing and have been out of contact for over four hours."

"What I predicted before has very likely already happened; the plan I just mentioned seems to be feasible now."

Upon hearing this, Deputy Director Zhang couldn't help but chuckle.

"Hahaha, you're really a prophet! As for your ex-girlfriend's parents, they brought it on themselves!"

"Now that the opportunity has presented itself, we certainly can't let it slip by. You don't need to worry about the rest; someone else will handle it."

"I'll let you know when the results are out. As for your ex-girlfriend, it's best to let you know after you return to China."

"Alright, then I'll wait for the results."

Ling Yun responded with a smile.

For confidentiality reasons, they didn't say much on the phone, and ended the call after saying goodnight to each other.

After hanging up the phone, Ling Yun lay down on the bed.

Then he glanced at all the missed calls, but didn't rush to call his family, Da Meiyuan, or anyone else back, as that could lead to being eavesdropped on.

After checking the missed calls, he began to look at other unread text messages.

Needless to say, the text messages from his mother and Da Meiyuan were all about his concern, telling him to rest and not to overwork himself, etc.

The text messages from others were varied and very interesting!

Especially those who had just learned that he was a super investment genius and a super-rich man, their text messages were full of amazement!

"Yunzi, no, I should call you Master Yun now, are those news articles online really true? Are you really a super-rich man with a net worth of at least tens of billions? That's amazing!"

"Sir, do you need any servants? If so, do you think I'm qualified? My requirements aren't high; just a million-dollar annual salary, and I'll serve you faithfully, even at the cost of my life!"

"Holy crap! I'm someone who never watches the news, but these past few days I've been glued to the news channel. When did you become so awesome? You're leaving us no chance at all!"

Looking at the numerous text messages from friends and classmates, Lingyun's smile grew brighter and brighter.

After reading all the unread text messages, he thought for a moment and then sent a group message.

"Thank you for your concern. Everything is going well for me here. The summit ends tomorrow, and I will be able to return to China soon."

"I'll call you back after I leave Washington; now's not the right time."

After sending the text message, he casually put his phone on vibrate and placed it on his bedside table.

Then I turned off the bedside lamp and quickly fell asleep.

Meanwhile, at another five-star hotel not far away.

In the luxury suite, Lourdes emerged from the bathroom, wrapped only in a bath towel, his face showing the weariness and frustration that even a shower couldn't wash away.

Back in his bedroom, he first turned on his laptop and checked some international financial news.

His main focus was on the reaction of the international financial market after the release of China's super bailout plan.

Then there are the comments from various financial media outlets and economic and financial experts, as well as the market reaction, after the summit declaration and action plan were leaked.

As international financial markets entered a weekend break, the market reaction was not significant.

Only when international financial markets reopen next Monday will we see a truly effective market response.

After browsing the news online for a while, Lloyd suddenly remembered something.

He then picked up his phone, which was lying to the side, and dialed a number.

After the call connected and his identity was confirmed, he said coldly with disdain:

"That stupid couple is no longer useful; the things they boasted about are simply impossible to achieve."

"That little bastard surnamed Ling is extremely cunning; there's no way we'll give them any chance to meet. In that case, this move has to be scrapped."

"Tell that stupid couple to give back all the money we gave them, not a penny less, or they're not leaving Washington alive."

Upon hearing the instruction, a cold voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.

"Roger that, boss. These two idiots are under our control and they're practically scared to death."

"Given their situation, recovering all the funds might be difficult, but we have a way to handle this."

After exchanging a few more words, Lauder ended the call on his own initiative.

Afterwards, he looked at international financial news online until around 1 a.m. before turning off his computer and going to sleep.

In the blink of an eye, it was already around three in the morning.

New York Avenue.

In the darkness, three SUVs bearing the license plates and flags of the Chinese Embassy arrived together and stopped in front of the police station on New York Avenue.

The car door opened, and two embassy staff members carrying briefcases got out and stood in front of the police station.

They then exchanged a glance and, under the protection of embassy security personnel, walked together into the police station.

Their arrival drew the attention of all the police officers at the police station entrance.

The fact that people from the Chinese embassy suddenly came to the police station during the global financial summit suggests that something has happened, and it's not a small matter.

Five minutes later, in an office upstairs.

An embassy staff member opened his briefcase, took out a document, and handed it to the deputy police chief across from him.

"Director, our embassy has received a report that a couple from our country have gone missing in Washington, D.C., and may have been kidnapped."

"After a preliminary investigation, we have obtained some relevant information, but we do not have law enforcement authority, so we called the police."

"We hope the police will assist us in finding the two missing persons, especially at this crucial juncture of the financial summit. We do not want to see any events that could damage relations between the two countries."

Upon hearing the phrase "affecting relations between the two countries," the police chief on the other side immediately felt a headache coming on.

He knew in his heart that he really couldn't afford to let such a mess happen at this stage.

"Yes, Counselor, we will take this case very seriously and launch an immediate investigation..."
