Chapter 380: Chapter 379: Disappeared
Upon hearing Wei Zixiao’s words, Gu Tingyu shook his head and said, "We should listen to what Major General Qi has to say about this."
Wei Zixiao, after hearing this, didn’t say more and simply sighed.
In the end, they couldn’t extract any useful information from Elder Yue and the others.
"Tingyu, Zixiao, you two and your team brothers should take a good rest for two days. We will handle the upcoming matters well," Qi Hexin said.
On their way back, Qi Hexin couldn’t help but give them time off.
Gu Tingyu nodded and said, "Okay, I’ll thank you on behalf of the brothers."
Even if he didn’t want to rest, he had to consider the brothers in his organization. They had indeed worked hard during this period.
Although Wei Zixiao was concerned about the progress, having a rest was good news, so he also smiled and nodded.
The next day, while resting, Gu Tingyu went to find Yiyi early in the morning.
Yiyi was very happy to see Gu Tianyu coming over, "Tingyu, you’re here, come in quickly." She had been thinking about when she could meet Gu Tingyu, and didn’t expect him to visit the next day.
Seeing the little girl’s cheerful smile, Gu Tingyu couldn’t help but pat her head and said, "How have you been these days?"
"I’m okay. I was just worried about you guys before, but fortunately, you all returned safely after completing the task."
Upon hearing the girl’s words, Gu Tingyu couldn’t help but smile and said, "Didn’t I tell you before that we would successfully complete the task? You really shouldn’t worry."
"Yes, yes, yes, you guys are the best."
Yiyi said, pouring a cup of tea for him and then asking about the situation.
"Everything went smoothly, but after catching the people, it will take some time to root out the people behind the scenes."
Hearing this from Gu Tingyu, Yiyi couldn’t help but frown and said, "Are those people still unwilling to confess honestly? Just unreasonable."
Seeing the little girl’s indignant expression, Gu Tingyu couldn’t help but smile and said, "Don’t worry, this matter will definitely be resolved smoothly. You don’t need to worry about it."
Upon hearing this, Yiyi didn’t say more.
It’s not something she could interfere with; she was just a bit angry. After all, Tao Cuizhu almost couldn’t get out of Medicine Valley, and she and Gu Tingyu’s group almost landed there too. So, she couldn’t help but hate Elder Guan from the bottom of her heart, wishing they would catch the bad guy quickly.
"Okay, okay, let’s not talk about this. Let’s go out for a meal later. I know there’s a new restaurant opened on the street, and it’s really good."
Gu Tingyu naturally smiled and agreed.
But right after they finished eating, he received a message, and with some apology, he looked at Yiyi and said, "I need to go back, I’ll come to visit you another day when I have time off."
Upon hearing this, Yiyi quickly said, "You go ahead, business matters." She knew there must be something urgent, otherwise, Gu Tingyu wouldn’t leave so hastily.
Seeing the little girl’s sensibility, Gu Tingyu patted her head and then turned and left.
After Gu Tingyu left, Yiyi thought there was nothing to do, so she went to find Fei Erya.
Fei Erya was very happy to see Yiyi.
"Yiyi, why are you here? Come in and sit down."
Upon entering, Yiyi saw a table full of textbooks and couldn’t help but say, "Er Ya, why are you so studious, reading all the time during the break?"
Fei Erya, hearing this, smiled and said, "There’s nothing much going on, so I just read books to kill time."
Yiyi looked at those books and found they were junior and senior level textbooks, and asked, "Are you preparing for your courses in advance?"
Fei Erya nodded and said, "Yes, I plan to go through all the textbooks. If possible, I want to take the graduate exams in advance."
Upon hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but praise, "Er Ya, you’re really amazing."
Fei Erya, a bit embarrassed by the praise, smiled and said, "It’s not as amazing as you say. You’re the most amazing, being able to refine medicine pills so early."
Yiyi quickly waved her hand and then talked about other things.
When it was two in the afternoon, Yiyi suddenly remembered that Fei Erya had to do tutoring, "Er Ya, am I holding you up?"
Fei Erya quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, it doesn’t start until three. There’s still time."
"Then you should prepare, and I’ll head back."
Thinking she had to go out to do tutoring, Fei Erya didn’t keep Yiyi longer and just said, "Alright, I’ll visit you next time."
Yiyi smiled and said, "Okay."
After Fei Erya packed her things, Yiyi went out with her.
"Er Ya, be careful on the road, and I’ll head home."
Fei Erya smiled and waved at Yiyi and said, "You be careful on the road too."
The two parted ways and said goodbye at the intersection in front.
But after Yiyi walked a few steps, she suddenly felt the keys in her pocket. She remembered she helped lock Fei Erya’s door because she had too many things, but forgot to return the keys to Fei Erya.
Thinking they had just left each other, Yiyi immediately chased after her. During their chat, she learned Fei Erya was tutoring on the east side of the city, so she headed in that direction.
However, after chasing for a while, Yiyi couldn’t help but frown.
It hadn’t been half a minute since she and Fei Erya parted, and now how could she suddenly disappear? It shouldn’t be the case; even if Fei Erya walked fast, she couldn’t have gone that far.
Thinking about this, Yiyi went back to the intersection where they parted and retraced the steps, heading in the direction Fei Erya left.
She searched along the way but didn’t see any sign of her.
This time, Yiyi went even further, almost running, but still couldn’t spot Fei Erya. By now, Yiyi’s expression was somewhat grim.
It’s not that she’s overly worried, but this situation is really strange, "Could Er Ya really walk this fast?"
Filled with doubt, Yiyi decided to continue forward. Suddenly, she sharply saw a very small flower, which was the flower clip on Fei Erya’s head.
Thinking of this, Yiyi’s demeanor became icy cold.
"Could Fei Erya be in trouble?"
At this point, Yiyi didn’t dare delay further. After searching around and still finding no one, she even directly went to the family Fei Erya tutored at on the east side of the city. It was only then that she realized Fei Erya hadn’t been there. She immediately returned to the Ding Family to seek Old Master Ding’s help.
After Old Master Ding heard Yiyi’s classmate had suddenly disappeared while walking on the road, he followed up with nervous questions, "Don’t panic yet, carefully tell me what happened then."
Yiyi naturally recounted the previous events.
