These four short words give people endless room for imagination.

When Cao Xiu received the news, she couldn't even stand up and fell on Yu Weimin.

"They've already sent someone back with a letter detailing the situation. We'll have results in two or three days at the earliest."

Qin Zhiheng frowned and said comfortingly: "We must not panic for now. Maybe Yu Yuan just went out with his classmates."

"No, if Yu Yuan leaves the dormitory and goes on a long trip, he will tell his parents in advance."

Not only would they let him know he was safe, Yu Weimin and Cao Xiu would also give him an additional living allowance to cover his normal social expenses.

The calmest person was Yu Weimin.

He pondered for a moment before suddenly speaking:

"The worst outcome is being taken away or detained by local authorities."

"Based on our understanding of Yuan, he wouldn't do anything illegal. So there's only one possibility."

"He must have made some breakthrough."

As Yu Weimin said, if this is true, then Yu Yuan’s life will not be in danger. After all, technical personnel are national treasures wherever they are.

But it is also very dangerous.

"I'm going to the United States."

"Dad, it's too dangerous." Qin Zhiheng stopped him.

Once it really comes to that, Yu Weimin's presence will only give the other party more bargaining chips.

"I will report this matter as soon as possible and use diplomatic channels to get them to release him."

"Disaster."

Not only Yu Weimin thought so, but Cao Xiu and Yu You also thought the same thing.

Even if China faced such a situation decades later, it would have to make more plans, not to mention right now. It would be extremely difficult to expect them to release the people without saying anything.

"Zhiheng, go check again and see if there's any way to get the information back quickly. Then we can make some plans."

Yu Weimin wanted to get Qin Zhiheng away, but he was still worried. The family of three locked the door of the room and started to discuss in the space.

"Someone must go, no matter what means are used, to bring Yu Yuan back as soon as possible."

"It's not appropriate for Yu You to go there. Wife, you stay home and take good care of our daughter. I'll buy a plane ticket right away."

"It would be even more inappropriate for you to go there. Don't forget what you taught me and my daughter before. It's best for me to go."

Cao Xiu showed his authority and decided to go there in person no matter how Yu Weimin persuaded him.

"Youyou's identity is sensitive, and it might be even more disadvantageous if she goes there. You should take care of the company first. I'm just a small business owner selling side dishes, and I don't think they would be interested in me."

"At worst, there's still room. Don't we still have the privilege of adding people that we haven't used yet?"

"If something unexpected really happens, I'll take Xiaoyuan into the space and let them study it as a supernatural event."

After hearing these words, I actually felt like I was going to burn my boats.

Yu You watched her parents arguing with each other, and without exception, they excluded her.

As a parent herself, she naturally understood Yu Weimin and Cao Xiu's persistence.

"Don't panic yet. Maybe this is all a misunderstanding."

Everyone knew in their hearts that this was just a soothing tactic. Based on their understanding of Yuan and the U.S. political party and government, the probability of a mistake was almost pitifully small.

Three days was not a long time, and soon Yu You and the other two knew the whole story.

Yu Yuan was reported for academic plagiarism by his roommate, who also accused him of stealing computers for practice.

The American police quickly detained the man and confirmed that he had committed academic plagiarism. They also added another crime and prosecuted Yu Yuan for stealing American technological secrets.

Interestingly, just as Yu Weimin guessed, according to the description of Yu Yuan’s overseas Chinese classmates, he has indeed made a major technological breakthrough recently.

Before the message could be passed back, the person was taken away.

"How can this be possible!"

Yu Weimin slammed the table and stood up, "This is simply too much!"

"The embassy has sent legal personnel to lodge a complaint. Other countries have no right to detain Chinese citizens. After collecting evidence, I will accuse the US at a press conference."

Qin Zhiheng gave the most reliable solution currently offered by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

But as predicted before, just accusations and warnings probably won't affect the other party's behavior.

"Truth is only as far as the cannon can reach."

"I want to invest money to support domestic military industry."

Yu You was angry, and the consequences were serious.

The entire Yu family was in motion. Yu Weimin was making preparations for Cao Xiu's departure in the system, and the space kept sending out reminders:

"Exchange for bulletproof vests and fireproof suits... 1760 points will be deducted, leaving only available points."

The Three Knights of the Era: "@Future Base Researcher, buddy, please exchange some essential medicines for traveling. You can also get some medicine to protect yourself from others."

"@Survival in the apocalypse, are there any items that can protect against biological and chemical weapons and close combat? I'll pay a high price for them."

Future Base Researcher: "A great gift package for going out. It can treat everything from head to toe. As long as you still have breath, I can hold you and take you to the hospital. Five thousand points."

Survival in the apocalypse: "Do you want a level 3 helmet? But you're too big a target. I just happened to have a batch of special masks that can filter and prevent viruses. 2,000 points. No cheating."

Traveling to Fengxian Dynasty: "@Era Three Heroes, bro, I have authentic Angong Niuhuang Pills here, made from that horn, essential for survival. I'll give them to you with 2,000 points."

The Three Knights of the Era: "Deal."

Xiao Ai: "Transaction successful, 9,000 points deducted, remaining available points."

A large amount of points were allocated, but Yu Weimin's face showed no emotion.

When he took out all the items he had exchanged, the space also issued a warning:

"Warning, a large number of anachronistic items have been detected. Warning, circulation in the real world is prohibited."

"I'm using it for my own use, so I'll fine you if you want. My wife's safety is the most important thing."

Yu Weimin raised his hand to close the bright red dialog box, packed up the full box and then exited the space.

After making inquiries from many sources, Cao Xiu finally bought the fastest-leaving plane ticket and bought a boat ticket to Hong Kong that night.

At Haihe Port, in addition to Yu You's family of three, Fu Duo and Duan Tao were also there.

"Mr. Fu, it's Mr. Yu and the others."

Duan Tao had sharp eyes and recognized their big client at a glance.

Fu Duo saw that Yu You and the others were in a hurry, so he did not rush forward to disturb them. It was not until Yu You noticed him that he nodded in greeting.

"Mr. Fu."

Yu Weimin and Cao Xiu still had something to say, so Yu You tactfully walked away and exchanged pleasantries with Fu Duo:

"Just going back to Hong Kong?"

"Let's go to Zhuzhou first. I haven't been back for a long time. I'll take a look at your project on the way."

"Thank you for your trouble."

Yu You never mentioned his family affairs, and Fu Duo didn't ask any further questions.

There was a lot of noise all around them, but only the two of them stood there in silence.

Duan Tao lowered his eyes, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart. When it comes to the skill of keeping silent, his master is the best and no one dares to say he is second.

“Woo——”

The whistle blew long and loud, and a crowd of people surged towards the gangway that had been lowered.

"Boss Yu, go ahead."

Fu Duo turned around swiftly, and Yu You also walked towards Cao Xiu and helped her onto the boat.

"Fu Duo, stop!"
