Elder Guan roared the last sentence as though he was speaking of an enemy. He even ended his speech by gnashing his teeth together.
“Understood, Sir. I’ll dispatch more people to widen the search.”
Deep down, however, the subordinate was on the verge of tears as he thought about his team, who had been scouring the city nonstop.
They had searched practically every nook and cranny of City Ain the past few days, but they still couldn’t locate that slip of a girl.
They had even hijacked public surveillance cameras, in addition to deploying men in every popular spot for youngsters, all to no avail.
He had begun to suspect that they were looking in the wrong place.
But Elder Guanwas adamant in his certainty thatYao Tangwas inCity A.
As they watched the old man’s figure disappear in the distance, the men sighed in defeat. “That person can’t possibly be in City A. This place isn’t even that big. With everything we’ve done, we should have found her long ago.”
Their team leader clicked his tongue.
“Let’s just do our job. Elder Guansaid to look for her, so we should just keep looking.”
The other man was sporting a bitter expression as he whined, “But City Awill be hosting a tennis match in a few days. It would be nice to take a short break and enjoy what this place has to offer.”
Their leader cackled. “We haven’t even accomplished what we came here for, and you’re already thinking of sneaking away to indulge in your hobbies? There’s no way that’s going to happen, man.”
…
......
In a luxurious suite of a grand hotel in City A.
“Be honest with me. How many months does Uncle have left?”
The richest man in Country Kstood in front of the French windows and snarled at his phone.
It had been more than a week since he’d arrived here. In all that time, he had sent his men to turn the city upside down, but they still couldn’t find any trace of that business.
The doctor on the other end of the line was silent for a moment. “Young Master, he still has three months to live. If he doesn’t get medical treatment in time, the damage on Colonel Nelvis’ body will take its toll and will eventually lead to his death.”
Searle frowned after hearing that, a storm brewing in the depths of his eyes.
“I don’t care what method you use,” he barked arrogantly. “You must stabilize my uncle’s condition before I find the godly doctor!
“Otherwise, you will the price with your life and that of your family.”
He ended the call before the doctor could utter another word.
Searle was considered a young and rare genius in Country K. Ever since he had taken over the Cole family at the age of seventeen, he had managed to eliminate many of their rivals and cement his position as the wealthiest man in the nation’s history.
He had brought a small but capable group of bodyguards to City Ato search for the godly doctor.
It was the only hope he had for reviving his Uncle Nelvis.
No matter what the price he had to pay, Searlewas determined to find the godly doctor, bring him back toCountry K, and have him cure his uncle’s illness.
“Leader, this is the list of all the prominent figures in City A. Please take a look.”
An aide came up to him with a folder.
“Okay,” Searleanswered lightly as he took the file.
He smoked a cigarette while reading through the information his men had obtained.
He had barely finished the first page when he paused, his eyes widening in surprise.
Cheng Yan?
So, he was also in City A?
Searle had metCheng Yanonce, at an auction abroad. At the time, they were engaged in a bidding war for a piece of Lingzhi mushroom.
Cheng Yan had eventually won the bid.
Shortly after the encounter, Searlehad sent someone to look into the item and gather some intel onCheng Yan. It was then that he learned of his rival’s identity and the power that he possessed.
He also learned that someone close to Cheng Yanmust be extremely sick and in dire need of some specialty medicine. Otherwise, the man wouldn’t have foughtSearletooth and nail to acquire the rare Lingzhi mushroom.
And yet, to Searle’s surprise,Cheng Yanseemed to have stopped his foraging for medicinal herbs half a year ago.
Searle’s eyes flashed at the thought, and a growing speculation rose in his heart.
Perhaps Cheng Yanhad already found the godly doctor.
Searle put the document down and turned to his aide. “Go and investigateCheng Yan’s movements in the last few months. Find out every person he has met recently, as well as the places that he frequents.
“I want all the information in my hands by noon tomorrow!”
