It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

Although it's unrealistic to think about it carefully, there are many more efficient ways than this... If he really wants to do something big, he might as well instigate He Lao San to kill his father with a knife to kill the gold coins. That would be more direct. Why bother to tie up Miss He Er who has a low sense of presence? It's superfluous.

But as long as similar rumors spread, it will inevitably have an impact on him - the six-eyed flying fish is still very scary. He can make Qi Maoyang shut everyone's mouths, but he can't shut everyone's hearts.

Especially on Wen Shengkui's side, it was obvious that the old man favored He Yuxia far more than her family. If the ice had not been broken and the relationship had not been established, it was hard to say whether "Feather Pen" would have any grudge against him because of this.

We really can't just sit back and watch.

He also knew that Tang Shuang came to him to return a favor. He had given her a lot of conveniences with the chip before, and when something like this happened this time, she came to him as soon as possible, so that he could be prepared?

He is quite grateful.

"So, I don't know if you have any idea about this."

Director Tang gradually calmed down. "Or, is there anyone... suspicious?"

"Investigating cases is not my specialty, it's yours."

Xu Shi pinched his chin and said, "Nothing I can think of can do such a thing."

If we really have to doubt, there are only two possibilities, one is Long Tianding and the other is Xie Qingyan, but if you break them apart, neither of them is possible.

According to Long Tianding, he had just returned from him, and the relationship between "Snake Ring" and "Dragon City" was about to stabilize. At this time, he would never do anything that would harm himself, unless he went crazy.

As for Xie Qingyan, this bitch is very good at doing tricks behind the scenes, but the problem is that she, like herself, has the card of Boss He in her hand. If she really wants to take action against "Shark Tooth", there is no need to go through so much trouble.

Are there any other possibilities... Come to think of it, there doesn't seem to be any, and Xu Shi really has no idea for a moment.

"Your Inspection Bureau should have searched it. What's the situation?"

"Nothing."

Tang Shuang shook her head. "If He Yuxia was still in Night City, we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. But we've been to Sin City, and there's still no sign of her."

In fact, she is the one with the most pressure.

It seemed that she was sitting and talking with Xu Shi, but in fact, there was at least two levels of difference in status between them. Once something really happened to He Yuxia, she would be the first to bear the brunt of the blame.

So when she came to see Xu, in addition to giving him reminders, she actually also wanted to ask him for some advice - after all, she knew that this guy had a lot of ideas and might be able to help her analyze something.

"You don't have to worry too much, right? Didn't they say that Miss He Er has bodyguards?"

Xu Shi comforted her, "At least her life is safe and it won't be that easy for her to get into trouble."

"…This matter was reported to us by her bodyguard."

Director Tang gritted his teeth and said, "They said they followed the man and he disappeared. They didn't dare to tell Shark Tooth, and the leader kept begging me not to tell anyone about it."

"..."

Xu Shiren was stunned. He had never been so speechless before.

Okay, so this is the pressure?

It can only be said that this is human nature. He Jiayuan assigned some bodyguards to his daughter, but these people probably wouldn't take it too seriously. Firstly, they don't think she would really encounter any danger. Secondly, He Yuxia is alone and has no say or status. Those who follow her have no future... so they will naturally neglect them.

But if something like this really happens, they will have to bear the consequences.

Xu Shi could even imagine how those people would look when they came to beg Tang Shuang for help. They would probably be crying and snotting. If it were an ancient setting, he might even have to kowtow twice... It's hard to say. Can't we kowtow in this era?

"...Okay, then I'll help you look for it?"

Xu Shi thought about it, and immediately gave orders, asking Su Lin to transfer some personnel from the Field Affairs Department to work with the Inspection Bureau. By the way, he also gave a greeting to Gu Yi, saying that the network security department would be very useful at this time.

He also informed Wen Shengkui, and the old man was indeed concerned and willing to provide help.

This is actually quite funny. After notifying so many people, I didn’t even think of notifying the people from “Shark Tooth”.

This wasn't really for the future of those bodyguards, he didn't care if they died... The fact was that even if they were notified, it might not be useful, who of the He Lao Da and He Lao San had ever cared about their relative? Maybe they were hoping that something would happen to He Yuxia, so that they could make a fuss about it.

"Thank you so much, Chairman Xu."

Seeing that the other party made these arrangements in an orderly manner, Tang Shuang felt much more relaxed and secretly thought that it was the right decision to come to him.

"I think you owe me a favor."

Xu Shi was frank and said, "I'll ask you to pay it back in the future."

Yes, if you really want to say it, this is his purpose.

To put it in a broader sense, if he has the ambition to unite and unify the Night Sin City, then all aspects must be taken into consideration. Although the Inspection Bureau is not as important as the six major financial groups, it is no exception.

To put it simply...it's not a bad thing to let Director Tang, one of the heroines in the original novel, owe him a favor. The more he owes, the better.

Tang Shuang didn't say anything after hearing this, but her expression became a little strange. When this matter was exposed in front of her, she didn't know how to respond...

"Of course, with the power of your Inspection Bureau, if you haven't been able to find anyone in the past few days, it's more likely to be another situation."

Xu Shi continued, he had not forgotten that He Yuxia had gone out to collect folk songs a few days ago, "which means He Yuxia is not in the city at all."

"...You said she might have gone out of town?"

Tang Shuang suddenly became alert, "Impossible? Ever since the incident with the "Forgotten", the several passages outside the city have been strictly guarded by the Inspection Bureau, and there are great restrictions on entry and exit..."

"It's not easy to get in, but it's not necessarily easy to get out."

Xu Shi shook his head. "I can only say don't ignore this possibility."

"……you're right."

Director Tang thought about it and realized that this was the truth. "I'll go out of the city and look for her myself. If that's the case, then she might really be in danger."

"Then I won't keep you here. Director Tang, take care."

Xu Shi nodded, "No, it should be walking quickly."

"I have to run."

Tang Shuang joked back, but stopped in front of the door and looked back at him.

"Is there anything else?" Xu Shi asked curiously.

"Chairman Xu, can you... go with me?"

Tang Shuang thought about it and asked tentatively.

"no!"

Before Xu Shi could answer, Su Lin on the side refused outright.

She could keep quiet when the young master was talking to others, but how could this be possible?

"Director Tang knows the current situation outside the city better than us. Young Master is not a combatant. Will you be responsible if something goes wrong?"

Not to mention that she was overstepping her authority by answering for Xu Shi, the fact that she could make such a request and didn't scold her was considered well-educated of Director Su.

“…Yeah, my mind is still a little confused.”

Tang Shuang thought about it and waved her hand, "Sorry, Director Xu and Director Su, don't take it to heart."

"it does not matter."

Xu Shi laughed dumbly, "Let's find the person first, as for the rest... we can talk about it after you come back."

In fact, to be honest, he felt that Tang Shuang's behavior of running out of the city to do everything in person was inappropriate. After all, as the director of the Inspection Bureau, it didn't seem right for him to do everything in person.

But she seems to have always been like this.

If I really have to say...a good and competent director?

He could actually sense that the other party's invitation was not really asking him to help find someone to go. What kind of person am I to do such a thing? It would be ridiculous to tell others about it.

Her real purpose might be to have a private chat with me about something?

Anyway, Xu Shi could tell that although they had not had much contact during this period, Tang Shuang's attitude towards him seemed to have improved a bit. It was not the kind of improvement because of the benefits of their previous cooperation, but the whole state of her in front of him.

From the initial tension to the gradual easing later on, she even gave me a small gift before... and now she wants to whisper to me?

This actually made Xu Shi feel a little strange, because he really didn't have any feelings for Tang Shuang, or even if he did, they were not many, and he didn't even plant a single seed for her... What factors caused her attitude towards him to change again and again?

Well, it must be my personal charm.

Some people think so shamelessly.

Besides, if we wait for her to come back and have a good chat, won't we know everything?

The words are divided into two parts.

While Xu Shi was feeling a little confused, Shen He, who was hiding in the temporary base of the "Forgotten" outside the city, had the same idea.

how to say?

During this period of time, his condition has improved a lot while recuperating here, and his position is no longer as embarrassing as it was at the beginning.

At least Li Tang, Shen Qin's subordinate, is now very respectful to him - this is a sign that his ability to "unite as one" is gradually recovering. Not only Li Tang, but also the entire branch of his sister who stayed outside the city, including Song Chen and Zhao Yuan's people, he also found ways to contact some of them and established good relationships with them.

As for his sister, the two of them naturally kept in touch, and the other party also told him that she had found some people who could be contacted and united with.

All in all, everything is moving in the right direction.

But then again, even so, he still didn't think that he had enough strength to defeat Xu Shi.

At least he is much more sober now, and he can see the obvious gap - the other party may not even be interested in the top talents of the "Forgotten Ones", but he is still dealing with these people who are left behind.

Although I don't want to admit it, we are really not on the same level.

But he still couldn't swallow this anger, as the scene of being humiliated by the other party was still vivid in his mind.

Is he really going to stay here for the rest of his life, or return to Night Crime City as an ordinary person under its jurisdiction? He couldn't accept it at all.

But what else could he do...at least he couldn't think of any solution now.

Feeling upset, he went to relax near the base and change his mind.

That's when.

Shen He saw that there seemed to be a bit of out-of-place scenery at the foot of the mine not far away.

Ok?

When he looked closely, he realized that this was actually a person?

She was still a girl wearing a light yellow long skirt.

The other person seemed to have lost consciousness and fainted on the ground. The backpack next to him was opened, and the photography and painting equipment inside was scattered all over the floor.

Ah this?

This person is definitely not the "Forsaken", but someone from Nightsin City...
