While they were still waiting to eat, Song Mengmeng sent a message to Yan Di, telling him their current location.

However, the King of Hell did not reply to the message in a strange way.

Not only this message, but he also didn't reply to the messages they sent to Yan Di when they were resting there.

This is very wrong!

Song Mengmeng frowned slightly. Based on her understanding of Da Shoushou, there was absolutely no way he would not reply to her messages for so long. Even if he was currently handling company matters abroad, it was still impossible for him not to reply to a single message!

Moreover, he had been on business trips before, and no matter how busy he was, he would always reply to her messages quickly.

so……

"What's wrong?!" Noticing that Song Mengmeng's expression was off, Hu Yue quickly leaned over and asked in a low voice.

Song Mengmeng put her phone away, then looked up at Hu Da sitting opposite her: "Yan Di has lost contact!"

"Huh?!" Hu Da was taking a sip of tea when she heard Song Mengmeng's words and almost spat it out. She coughed twice to calm herself down and looked at Song Mengmeng in disbelief: "No way?!"

"I sent him a message last night, and I've sent him more than ten messages in total, but he hasn't replied to a single one since last night!"

Song Mengmeng's expression grew increasingly grim as she spoke. Although she hadn't detected any danger to him through the contractual connection between the two, the young girl was still subconsciously worried.

"Why don't you try calling his assistant?!" Hu Da frowned, realizing something was wrong when she heard the girl say that.

Just as Song Mengmeng said, it's impossible for the Emperor of Hell to see the girl's message and not reply!

Could it be...?

Something really happened!

Song Mengmeng lowered her head and dialed Gu Qi's number again, but the result was the same as when she dialed Yan Di's number—the number was not in service area.

"I'm going to find him!"

Song Mengmeng couldn't sit still any longer and stood up. She couldn't just wait here like an idiot; she had to find the King of Hell!

Hu Da wanted to stop them, but before she could speak, the heavy curtain of the dumpling restaurant was jumped open, and a person dressed in a way that was completely out of place in the scene appeared in Song Mengmeng and the others' line of sight.

A pristine white three-piece suit, a handsome face like a nightclub's top star—who else could it be but the ever-present, haunting spirit of Shuten-dōji?!

"What bad luck!"

Upon seeing Shuten-dōji, before Song Mengmeng could even speak, Hu Da, standing beside her, frowned in displeasure, staring at the unexpected guest with considerable dissatisfaction.

"Why are you everywhere?!" Song Mengmeng's expression was also unpleasant, but she didn't have much energy to waste time with Shuten-dōji right now. She was in a hurry to find Yama-dōji!

"I've come here to discuss a collaboration with you." Shuten didn't seem to mind the attitude of the two people in front of him, and very naturally walked over and sat down next to Huda: "You don't mind if I have an extra pair of chopsticks, do you?!"

"Just pay the money together!" Knowing this guy's persistent nature, Hu Da was too lazy to waste her breath telling him to get lost.

Since they can't understand human language anyway, we might as well make use of them!

“No problem!” Shuten readily agreed, not only sitting down but also beckoning the proprietress over to order a few more dishes and two more servings of dumplings.

After everything was dealt with, he turned his attention to Song Mengmeng: "I know what you're worried about. Actually, I'm in the same boat as you. I can't get in touch with my companions either!"

As Shuten spoke, he took out his phone, pulled up a photo, and placed it on the table for Song Mengmeng and Hu Da to see: "A week ago, Da Tengu went to Europe to negotiate a business project, but as a result, I suddenly lost contact with them yesterday!"

"You actually have business projects to discuss?!" Knowing that she couldn't leave for the time being, Song Mengmeng, like Hu Da, relaxed for the time being and stopped wasting her energy resisting. However, although she sat down, the words she spoke were anything but pleasant, full of sarcasm.

"Even monsters need to eat!" Shuten-dōji adapted well. Faced with Song Mengmeng's hostility, he was not angry at all. Instead, he showed a self-deprecating smile: "Let's get back to the main topic. The business summit that Ōtengu and the others went to this time is the same destination that Yama-dōji went to!"

I thought since Da Tengu and Yama were going to the same business summit, I thought I'd come and ask you; maybe you'd have some information. I just didn't expect to hear you talking about going to find Yama before I even entered the door.

So I guess you, like me, have lost contact with them.

Since you're also planning to go there to find people, how about we cooperate? I've already chartered a private jet. If you agree, after we finish this meal, we can take the next available flight to Cyprus!

"Okay!" Song Mengmeng didn't hesitate much and readily agreed to Shuten-dōji's invitation. Although Shuten-dōji and she had always been enemies, at this moment, she didn't sense any hostility from him.

"However, I have absolutely no clue about this matter!"

Since you took the initiative to invite us to travel together, you must know something, right?

The person who could trap her beloved beast was definitely no ordinary opponent! However, she didn't know much about her beast's itinerary. She only knew that he had gone to Cyprus, but she had no idea who he would be meeting with.
