Chapter 308: No one found
"I'm almost embarrassed by all the praise you little rascals give me. If I really want to express my gratitude, I should say it to your Senior Brother Xia."
Gu Qingyu smiled and suggested, "Brother, you're right. I think it's still early, and we can still make it back to the guesthouse later. Why don't we treat Brother Xia to a nice meal before we leave?"
Xue Qian, who was standing nearby, nodded in agreement, "Okay, okay! How about we go back to the little restaurant we ate at before?"
Xue Qian swallowed her saliva as she spoke, and her greedy look made the other three people present so happy that they couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.
"Since everyone has no objection, let's pack up and go find Old Xia!" Feng Ming said with finality.
So, Gu Qingyu and the others quickly packed up their things and followed Feng Ming to Xia Wen's dormitory to look for him.
Several people came to Xia Wen's office excitedly but found it empty. Looking at the door with an iron guard hanging on it, Gu Qingyu and others fell into silence.
After a long while, Zhang Zhang finally started to speculate: "This person is not in the office, could he be in the dormitory?"
Feng Ming shook his head upon hearing this. "Because I'm leaving today, I went to the dormitory early this morning to look for him, but unfortunately, he wasn't there."
"According to the old man who's guarding the door, Lao Xia has been leaving early and coming back late every day these days, and he won't return to the dormitory until dark."
As soon as Feng Ming finished speaking, Gu Qingyu and the others frowned. How could they invite someone to dinner if they couldn't find anyone?
"How about we go to Senior Brother Xia's dormitory again? If we really can't find him, we can only give up with regret." Gu Qingyu suggested.
Feng Ming nodded when he heard this. "Let's go. If he's not here yet, there's nothing we can do. I'll leave a note for the gatekeeper as a farewell to your Senior Brother Xia!"
Unfortunately, Gu Qingyu and his friends returned empty-handed on this trip to the dormitory. Feng Ming had no choice but to leave a letter for the gatekeeper and then took Gu Qingyu and his friends back to the guesthouse.
Xia Wen, who had been searched for in vain by Gu Qingyu and the others, was following Lin Zhao and the others in a miserable manner, searching for someone in the nearby urban villages.
It was a coincidence that Lin Zhao and his team came to Yan City on a business trip because a certain security bureau recently captured a spy. By interrogating the spy, they followed the clues and found the organization behind the scenes that provided funding to these spies.
According to intelligence obtained by undercover insiders who infiltrated the organization, the organization's various ways of making money are very similar to the pyramid schemes they learned about from other special groups.
With such speculation, they suspected that there were some special people in this pyramid scheme organization, so they asked Lin Zhao and his department to intervene.
Lin Zhao learned from the local police that many students from Yantai University had been recruited into pyramid schemes. In order not to alert the suspects, Lin Zhao and his colleagues participated in it as police officers.
As luck would have it, several of the girls were students in Xia Wen's class, so that's why Xia Wen had to get up early in the morning and follow Lin Zhao to look for students.
Gu Qingyu had no idea that the pyramid scheme organization she encountered on the train had already come under the control of the relevant departments.
She also thought that after completing the inspection of the tobacco market, she would go to Ji City and try to infiltrate the pyramid scheme organization, collect some evidence and call the police to prevent more people from being deceived.
