“Phew…” Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao exhaled, and her heart skipped a beat.
It was really because of Su Yun! For a moment, Zhou Xiaoxiao’s expression was a little gloomy and complicated, but she knew that Master Gu had basically said everything he could. There was nothing else to ask.
“If there are any other clues, provide them to us in time. Thank you for your cooperation.” With that, Zhou Xiaoxiao did not say anything else and turned to leave. However, her back was a little anxious, and her footsteps seemed to be in a mess.
Master Gu took a deep look at Zhou Xiaoxiao’s back and closed the door roughly with a bang. He covered his ears and smiled bitterly. “It’s difficult for me. I can’t afford to offend anyone!”
After Zhou Xiaoxiao left Burning Light Ancient City, she drove back to the headquarters. On the way, her heart was in a mess! Through the clues provided by Master Gu, she could basically confirm that the reason for Xu Jiajia’s kidnapping was most likely Su Yun.
Pig Head Rong and the others were indeed looking for Su Yun. However, for what purpose? Zhou Xiaoxiao did not know, but she could deduce that Su Yun must have known some secret. Otherwise, why would Pig Head Rong and the others make such a big fuss? Now that Su Yun had suddenly disappeared mysteriously, there was a high chance that the possibility of being silenced had already happened.
“Was he really silenced?” Thinking of this streamer whom she usually liked, Zhou Xiaoxiao’s heart sank. She had interacted with Su Yun twice in reality before. She could feel that Su Yun was a very upright and positive boy. “I hope he really has a magical throwing card skill to protect himself.”
Zhou Xiaoxiao sighed with a complicated expression. As her imagination ran wild, the car had already returned to the headquarters. After parking the car, Zhou Xiaoxiao quickly walked into the bureau and found Chen Ye. “Captain Chen, I found some clues about Su Yun!”
As soon as she opened the door, Zhou Xiaoxiao went straight to the point. Under Captain Chen’s surprised questioning, she quickly told him about her meeting with Master Gu today.
After hearing Zhou Xiaoxiao’s recount, Chen Ye fell into deep thought for a long time. The atmosphere in the office was a little oppressive, so Zhou
Xiaoxiao did not disturb him. After a long time, Chen Ye raised his head. “Something might have happened to Su Yun!”
Zhou Xiaoxiao’s expression was dim, but she had no choice but to agree. “Yes, I also think Su Yun’s disappearance was not a coincidence. Perhaps he really knew something. It was very likely that he had been targeted by criminals. In fact, we still could not find Su Yun under such a strong search. It was very likely that Su Yun had encountered something unexpected. However, what secret did Su Yun know that could make criminals take it so seriously?”
Chen Ye picked up a document and handed it to Zhou Xiaoxiao. He said, “Not long ago, after some discovery of the tomb ruins by the archeologist, there were new developments and discoveries. The experts admitted that the reason why the criminals had a clear goal and valued the lost cultural relic so much was that this cultural relic might be related to a secret sealed in history.
“As for what this secret was, it had yet to be deciphered. The experts said that they would probably have to see the cultural relics to know. Such an important national treasure cultural relic, and one that is even related to other secrets. Naturally, it’s not as simple as a cultural relic. Otherwise, the criminals wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble to search for it. It might even involve some organizations and forces overseas. Therefore, I speculate that it’s possible that Su Yun knew the secret of this cultural relic and was silenced.”
As Zhou Xiaoxiao listened to Captain Chen’s speculation, she looked down at the expert information in her hand and fell into deep thought. “About the secrets of cultural relics… What secrets would involve such a huge commotion?”
After a long time, Chen Ye rubbed the space between his eyebrows and stood up. “Organize a meeting!”
With that, he left. Zhou Xiaoxiao stood up and followed in a daze. The theme of this meeting naturally revolved around Su Yun. Su Yun’s life and death were unknown, and there was a high chance that he had been silenced or controlled by criminals.
However, the investigation related to him still had to continue. In everyone’s hearts, their opinion of this matter was no longer optimistic. After all, to be targeted by criminals and even kidnap Xu Jiajia to threaten him, they had caused such a huge commotion just to lure Su Yun out.
That meant that Su Yun must have grasped a secret that was very important to the criminals. It was also very likely a secret related to cultural relics. Regarding the third faction, they could not help but wonder if they were also after this unknown secret. They might even want to intercept this unknown national treasure cultural relic.
For a moment, everyone felt more and more that the importance of this national treasure cultural relic could actually cause such a huge storm and make many forces compete for it.
At this meeting, Zhou Xiaoxiao raised a very bold hypothesis that shocked everyone.
“Is it possible that Su Yun was not silenced because he’s one of the people in this mysterious third party?”
Su Yun did not know about the secret of the golden foil for the time being.
Su Yun, who had mysteriously disappeared in the eyes of the police, had already quietly returned to his hometown in Fan City.
Fan City had a unique nickname: Mountain City. Of course, this mountain city was not the same place as the famous Fog City. It was far less prosperous than
Fog City..
