Gu Chen took a deep breath, came to his senses, looked at the police officer, and asked, "Where is she now?"
"If I knew where it was, would I be here checking cars in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
The officer said irritably, waved his hand, and said, "Get out of here, or I'll really get rough."
Gu Chen's eyes turned cold. Just then, Yu Sheng finally ran over, smiling, and said, "Young man, it must be hard work working on duty so late at night."
"Are you his father?" The officer glanced at Yu Sheng and said, "Take your son away immediately; he's obstructing our duties."
"No, he's my young master." Yu Sheng chuckled, glanced at the police officer's badge, and said, "I'm an old acquaintance of your Captain Chu. My name is Yu Sheng."
"Captain Chu?" The young police officer trembled, and upon hearing the name Yu Sheng, he exclaimed in astonishment, "You're Yu Sheng from the Honghe Sect?"
"Yes, I am the chairman of Honghe Group." Yu Sheng nodded and said, "Our young master wants to ask you about something. He is very concerned about Miss Xiao Zhuxin's safety."
Although Yu Sheng's name wasn't much within his family and sect, it carried considerable weight in the secular world of the Shangjing. Furthermore, Captain Chu's name was widely known. The police officer glanced at the vehicle behind them, and upon seeing the license plate, he immediately became cautious, saying, "We don't know Miss Xiao Zhuxin's whereabouts, but according to our intelligence, after kidnapping Miss Xiao at the concert, the criminals headed in this direction. There are three exits from the city here, and we've sealed them off."
"However, it's harder for the thugs to leave the city than to climb to heaven. Please rest assured, young master, and trust our abilities."
After learning Yu Sheng's identity, the young police officer's attitude improved considerably, and he recounted the kidnapping in detail. It turned out that today was Xiao Zhuxin's first concert, held at the Workers' Stadium on Airport Road.
At 11:30, the concert ended. Xiao Zhuxin was about to bow and leave, but everyone was still eager for more. Unable to resist the enthusiasm of the fans, she sang another song.
Just as he finished singing the song and was about to go backstage to rest, something unexpected happened!
Suddenly, a masked man burst into the backstage area, knocking down several staff members and capturing Xiao Zhuxin. At first, the staff thought he was some kind of enthusiastic fan, but they only realized what was happening when he dragged Xiao Zhuxin towards one of the exits, accompanied by several accomplices. By then, it was too late.
Then, these people took Xiao Zhuxin away. They were organized and planned, and even the stadium security personnel and the police officers maintaining order could not stop them.
"There were six people in total. They successfully evaded all surveillance cameras. We then investigated their ticket purchase records, only to discover that they were using forged identities."
Hearing this, Gu Chen had no desire to listen any further. He turned around and went back to his car, Yu Sheng followed him again.
"Young Master Gu, are we still going to the Wuji Manor branch?"
"I'm not going."
Gu Chen said calmly, "If we drive into the city, those thugs shouldn't be able to leave."
"Are you going to rescue Miss Xiao?" Yu Sheng asked cautiously. "Young Master Gu, may I ask what your relationship is with Miss Xiao?"
"If anything happens to her, I'll make sure someone pays the price." Gu Chen said menacingly, "I'll dig three feet into the ground to find her!"
Yu Sheng's heart skipped a beat, and seeing Gu Chen's gloomy face, he dared not ask any more questions.
Having learned of Yu Sheng's identity, the checkpoints on both sides of the road made way for him, and he entered the city a few minutes later.
"Young Master Gu, I'll immediately arrange for my men to investigate. Await my response."
Upon arriving at the Workers' Stadium on Airport Road, Gu Chen asked to get out of the car, Yu Sheng then spoke in a deep voice.
"Call me if you have any news." Gu Chen nodded and got out of the car.
The Workers' Stadium is still packed with people, but most of them don't know that Xiao Zhuxin has been kidnapped. Some fans are still waiting for the last train and subway, and the crowd is surging.
Gu Chen walked into the stadium against the flow of people, and then released his Divine Sense, covering the entire stadium!
"No."
"There aren't any here either."
Still no.
Gu Chen's face was gloomy. In his mind, with such a strict investigation now, the criminals should do the opposite. Not only would they not be able to leave the city, but they might even be stuck inside the stadium.
But when he scanned the area with his Divine Sense, he found nothing.
Xiao Zhuxin's safety is more important than finding the Gu Family right now!
Xiao Zhuxin was one of Gu Chen's regrets from his past life!
After thinking for a moment, Gu Chen took out his phone and made a call.
"Sect Master Gu."
The person who answered the phone was Ye Fei from the Water Cloud Sect.
"Elder Ye, I've arrived in the Shangjing," Gu Chen said calmly.
"That's wonderful!" Ye Fei exclaimed with delight, "Sect Master Gu, where are you now?"
"Just arrived."
"Then I'll send someone to pick you up right away, Sect Master Gu. You have no idea how difficult things have been for us lately. We've finally been waiting for you!"
"Life is tough?" Gu Chen asked. "How is it tough?"
"The Steel Tremor Sect has recently been retaliating against us, and several other sects know that we obtained the Shennong Grass and are eyeing our Water Cloud Sect with covetous intent..." Ye Fei sighed and said, "We're just waiting for Sect Master Gu to come Shangjing the capital to take charge."
"Don't worry about the Steel Tremor Sect," Gu Chen said calmly. "Before I called you, I had already dealt with them and the Liu Family."
"What?" Ye Fei exclaimed in shock, stammering, "You, you just arrived, didn't you?"
No wonder Ye Fei was so shocked. If Gu Chen had just arrived today, how would he have had time to deal with the Steel Tremor Sect and the Liu Family? Moreover, given the strength of the Steel Tremor Sect and the Liu Family, Gu Chen wouldn't be able to handle them!
But Gu Chen ignored his shock and said calmly, "I have a favor to ask of you. Your Water Cloud Sect should have great influence in Shangjing capital, right? Help me investigate Xiao Zhuxin's whereabouts."
"Xiao Zhuxin?" Ye Fei was surprised to find that he had actually heard of Xiao Zhuxin. His voice sounded slightly strange as he asked, "Are you talking about that girl from the Xiao Family? The one who doesn't practice martial arts but sings?"
"Young Master Gu, you didn't go all the way to Shangjing to go to a concert, did you?"
"Yes." Gu Chen didn't deny it, and said, "I'm at the Workers' Stadium right now, Elder Ye, please get back to me as soon as possible."
"I'll investigate for you right away." Ye Fei sensed the seriousness in Gu Chen's voice and quickly added, "I'll get back to you in five minutes."
After hanging up, Gu Chen made another call.
"Brother Hu."
After the call connected, Gu Chen said, "I've arrived in Shangjing."
