He left home at nine in the morning and, accompanied by his bodyguards, went to the Chu Family Martial Arts School. He stayed there until six in the evening when he took a car to the Xingqi Hotel. He disappeared after the show ended at eight...

Chu Yao got information about He Qiaosi's whereabouts from Aunt Li, and then with her consent, she came to another house not far from her office.

He Qiaosi's two bodyguards were temporarily detained here by Li Lufang. Even if Qiaosi's disappearance was not caused by them, they would have to pay the price for their dereliction of duty.

Chu Yao closed the door, and the two bodyguards looked at her anxiously.

Chu Yao knew both of these people and often saw them around He Qiaosi.

Just as the two were about to speak, a purple light flashed in Chu Yao's eyes, and the two of them stopped where they were, as if in a daze.

"Where were you two when Qiao Si attended the banquet?"

Her words seemed to carry a terrifying magic, echoing in the hearts of the two.

"We, like the other bodyguards, were stationed in the lobby," one of them said blankly. "After the show ended at 8 o'clock, we brought the lady back. She said she wanted to go to the bathroom, so we continued to wait outside. After more than ten minutes, she still didn't return, so the two of us rushed in..."

"We searched the hotel thoroughly but couldn't find the lady, and her phone was turned off," another person added.

He died while going to the toilet?

Is there something wrong with this hotel?

No, now was not the time to speculate. There were too few clues, and she needed more evidence.

"Who did Qiao Si come into contact with today?" Chu Yao continued to ask.

"Miss Lin from the martial arts school and several students, and then there are the dozen or so people attending the banquet. They're all well-connected people, and Xiaoli and I don't know all of them."

"Has she behaved abnormally recently? Is it possible that she has offended someone?"

"No, everything is normal, just like usual."

"Those at the banquet were all Miss He's close friends. She had wanted to contact you, Miss Chu, to attend, but she failed to get through." "Xiao Li" added.

Well... I should still be in the secret realm of Yuxuan Sect at that time.

Chu Yao nodded, and with a slight flick of her finger, the spell was lifted. The two men shook their bodies as if waking up from a dream, with confusion in their eyes, obviously not knowing what had just happened.

"Hey, Miss Chu! You are here too! Have you got any news about Miss He?" Xiaoli asked with a worried look on her face.

"Not yet, but don't worry, I will find her. You two should think carefully about how to get her to not have her wages docked when she comes back."

Chu Yao raised her eyebrows and walked out of the room. After saying goodbye to Li Lufang, she left the Qingshu Company building.

With the help of secret techniques, Chu Yao could be sure that these two people were not lying.

However, she did not go directly to the hotel, but drove towards the martial arts gym first.

——

It was still early in the morning, and a fiery red motorcycle was speeding through the streets of the inner city.

After about ten minutes, a huge venue that looked like a stadium came into view.

This place is not far from Princess Ye, just behind the Kanles Association. The four big characters "Chu's Martial Arts School" on the several-meter-wide plaque are particularly eye-catching.

After the insect plague, Steel Dome broke away from the Alliance and became independent. The Alliance also lost its power to interfere in many affairs on Lingyuan Star, but the martial arts school still managed to operate under the cooperation of Chu Yao and He Qiaosi.

It does not have the so-called "official certification" and it is difficult to get the support of the orthodox martial arts system of heaven and man, but at least it still makes a profit and is not in a situation where it cannot make ends meet.

Chu Yao parked the motorcycle outside, pushed open the door and walked in. The cool air from the air conditioner in the room reduced all the heat on his body.

What caught my eye was a spacious square hall and flat wooden floor tiles. Not far away, next to a high platform, a dozen young children were waving their arms and legs to practice boxing, and their neat shouts echoed in the venue.

As soon as Chu Yao entered the door, she saw a familiar figure walking from the other side of the hall.

She is Lin Wu, and she is responsible for all matters big and small in the martial arts school.

Lin Wu was wearing a neat formal suit, with her ponytail hanging low behind her head, revealing her neck, which looked graceful and straight. As she walked over, her high heels made a sound as they tapped on the floor.

"Sister Chu, you are here because of Sister He's matter, right?"

Lin Wu smiled at Chu Yao, calm and steady. Several years of experience had hidden her former drive in the gentleness of her lips, and there was no trace of the ignorant little sister she once was.

Chu Yao nodded: "Has Qingshu's people been here?"

"They've been here several times. The Steel Dome Law Enforcement Bureau also came this morning, but they just asked a few questions and then left."

"There's nothing unusual about Qiao Si, is there?"

As Chu Yao chatted, his spiritual sense spread throughout the venue, but he didn't find anything special that needed attention.

This was also within her expectations, but Chu Yao did not want to give up any clues.

"No, she's still the same as before, practicing boxing and playing with the kids." Lin Wu looked at the children practicing boxing not far away with a smile in her eyes. "We even had lunch together at noon. I just didn't expect something like this to happen..."

Chu Yao almost forgot that He Qiaosi also knew martial arts, and she had even reached the seventh level.

An eighth-degree martial artist is already considered a top-notch expert. It would be impossible to quietly take away He Qiaosi, who is a seventh-degree martial artist, without some real strength.

At least, for mortals.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Xiao Wu."

"It's okay, Sister Chu. I'll do my best to help... With Sister He's skills, how many people can kidnap her? Maybe she suddenly got excited and sneaked out to play on her own."

"I hope so." Chu Yao smiled, turned around and was about to leave when she saw a man outside the door.

Chu Yao glanced over and saw that the smile on Lin Wu's lips seemed to grow even wider. Her eyes lit up and she understood.

"Hey, then you guys chat slowly, I'll be leaving first."

"Okay, if I have any news, I'll contact you via Fetion."

The man nodded to Chu Yao, and the two of them exchanged a few simple greetings before passing each other.

She remembered this person, but she couldn't recall his name. He was a coach at the martial arts school and a former employee of Maowei Security Company.

Through the window, she saw Lin Wu and the man chatting animatedly. Seeing Xiao Wu's happy expression, Chu Yao smiled with relief.

This little girl who was once confused and helpless finally found her own life.

She hadn't told Lin Wu about the base yet, and now it seemed there was no need to tell her.

Chu Yao withdrew her gaze and rode her beloved motorcycle again.

Then, there is only one target left...
