Chapter 863: Chapter 19: Missing Friend (Part 2)
After contacting campus security, the two gathered some information.
"This afternoon, someone from the field said they saw Yiyi. She started jogging and later left alone. According to you, she should have gone to the apartment first, let’s start by searching there," Wang Shuai suggested to Xiao Xian. Since there’s a note left on the table, it rules out one possibility: Yiyi left voluntarily.
After checking Yiyi’s belongings, Xiao Xian found that she took her wallet and a transportation card issued by the university once she arrived at Cornell University.
"Does she have any friends or relatives in the United States? It’s such a mess, leaving without saying a word," Wang Shuai checked the time; it was already eleven at night.
Nighttime security in the United States isn’t good, even if Yiyi carries superpowers as a mutant practitioner, she shouldn’t be wandering around in the middle of the night.
"That reminds me, Yiyi’s mother is in the United States. She hasn’t seen her mother since her parents divorced. When she first arrived in the United States, she tried to make contact, but her mother wasn’t very enthusiastic," Xiao Xian searched the drawer again but couldn’t find Yiyi’s mother’s contact information. However, she did find a note with her mother’s approximate address.
"Let’s go out searching. Luckily, today is Saturday, you stay at the school, in case it affects regular work and study." Even though it was the weekend, unforeseen events could still happen.
With a team member missing, it’s the leader’s responsibility to find them. Leaving Ye Heng at school, Wang Shuai still felt uneasy.
"I’ll go with you. I know Yiyi better. She left without a sound, there must be a reason, I’m a bit worried," Xiao Xian shook her head; she had to go along.
"It’s so late, and it’s not China; I can’t find a car to take you over," Wang Shuai could fly to New York to search, but his cultivation level wasn’t enough to carry another person.
Wang Shuai’s cultivation still couldn’t compare to Zhou Ziang.
Xiao Xian shrugged, "Leader, not every woman sits in a pumpkin carriage as Cinderella. Neither Yiyi nor I need someone to take care of us. Let’s go, I promise I won’t lose track."
Two shooting stars streaked across the sky above Cornell University.
In the exchange student apartment, several people paused their current activities.
John Christopher was inquiring about last week’s work situation of the local exchange students, but suddenly paused.
"What’s wrong?" Anna inquired.
"Someone took off into the sky at this time, two people to be exact," John stepped onto the balcony, watching the figures that had turned into two points of starlight.
"It’s not surprising; Cornell University is now renowned for having the most Golden Grade mutant practitioners in the world. Going out for air or sparring a bit at night isn’t amiss," Anna said indifferently, thinking John’s surprise was overblown.
"I recognize the aura of these two; they are from the Chinese exchange student delegation," John pointed out meaningfully.
"That Ye Heng is a Golden Grade student; who would have thought that the self-proclaimed civilized China would use such disgraceful tactics like student demotion," Anna was rather bitter about Ye Heng. It’s his luck this isn’t held in Europe; otherwise...
"Among the two auras, one belongs to the Chinese delegation leader Wang Shuai, and the other aura is from a woman," this was what surprised John.
It’s known that Golden Grade can control spirits to fly, the iron law in the Cultivation World. That the Chinese delegation has a downgraded intermediate student Ye Heng was already notable, and if there were another female student flying at a Golden Level, the situation couldn’t be optimistic.
"Are you referring to one of those two female students? Impossible, they are definitely Silver Grade. No, that superpower user doesn’t even have spiritual energy; she’s just a superpower user with a unique constitution," Anna’s eye for people was no less sharp, she nearly deciphered each member’s background and cultivation in this exchange activity.
Just now, she pondered with John over who might stand out in this exchange activity. According to her calculations, Aisha should be her biggest adversary, and Ye Heng is also a significant obstruction. Now with a possibly Golden Grade female student added, this suggests...
"We might have indeed underestimated the true strength of the Chinese delegation. She’s already flying, and her speed isn’t lesser than Wang Shuai’s," John smirked with a mysterious curve on his lips, his eyes narrowing dangerously.
The two starlights almost simultaneously vanished, the clearest indication.
This international exchange activity indeed showcases hidden talents.
Also noticing this were other team leaders from dozens of countries, most not overly attentive to the members of the Chinese delegation like John was and merely assumed those flying were two Golden Grade leaders.
Zhou Ziang flipped through an academic book, closing its pages upon sensing the aura.
At this moment, Xiao Xian and Wang Shuai left the campus without notice, heading towards New York. Did something happen?
After a moment’s thought, he was about to step out when there was a knock on the door.
Aisha’s overly sweet voice made Zhou Ziang frown; he jumped directly out the window, leaving the room silent, with only the desk lamp illuminating through the night.
The window in Xiao Xian and Yiyi’s room was open, causing the note placed on the table to flutter down.
The note clearly displayed an English address: "74 Vilone Street, Bronx, New York." (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, feel free to visit Qidian () to cast recommendation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
