Chapter 307: Chapter 306: Love Across Mountains and Seas
Si Yuting returned to Abel Star, and the first thing he did was to disconnect the real-time synchronization of the medical equipment and said to Jiang Zhou, "Analyze all the reports of the lady for me."
Jiang Zhou did exactly that. Seeing that the Grand Marshal was very anxious, he pulled them out without looking and went straight to find the Grand Marshal, as he still had a backup on his USB drive anyway.
Just as he left, he ran straight into Cheng Feng.
Watching Jiang Zhou’s figure walking away, Cheng Feng could only help him pick up the documents first.
"Boss’s documents?" Cheng Feng glanced briefly and neatly stacked the documents to hand them to Jiang Zhou.
"No, it’s the lady’s," Jiang Zhou replied offhandedly.
"Huh?!! Impossible, I saw Physique Level SSS-rank, whose could it be if not the boss’s?"
"What SSS-rank, you must have seen it wrong," Jiang Zhou said nonchalantly, holding the documents ready to find the Grand Marshal.
Cheng Feng stopped him, "I’m sure I’m right, don’t believe me just flip through it, it should be among these few."
Suddenly, Jiang Zhou thought of Qu Tong’s fertility value of 100 , and a terrible thought crossed his mind.
He hurriedly flipped out the report concerning mental health.
Jiang Zhou was looking at the Physique Level, while Cheng Feng was looking at the names.
"Damn!!" Cheng Feng burst out with a sharp cry.
Jiang Zhou, on the other hand, was trapped in a realm of doubting his own life.
Si Yuting, not having waited for Jiang Zhou in the office, came out to see the two staring blankly, and coldly ordered, "Bring the stuff inside! Cheng Feng, you come too."
The two came back to their senses, exchanged glances, and followed into the office in step.
Si Yuting carefully went through the documents one by one, while Jiang Zhou and Cheng Feng stood by the desk, struggling to maintain calm on their faces, but their hearts were already burning with impatience.
Especially Jiang Zhou, whose thoughts emerged and were denied again and again.
After Si Yuting had reviewed all the documents, he pulled out two, and his pitch-black eyes then turned to Jiang Zhou, "If you have any questions, ask now."
Jiang Zhou stammered, "Grand Marshal, the lady, and Miss Jun Li..."
Jiang Zhou stopped midway.
"I know."
The Grand Marshal’s actions and demeanor had explained everything.
No wonder the lady always had an endless supply of elixirs, even using them to water flowers.
No wonder the lady and Miss Jun Li would both blurt out calling themselves Doctor Zhou.
No wonder the Grand Marshal and Miss Jun Li were affectionate in their behavior.
And their equally exquisite marksmanship...
All of this showed that the two were indeed the same person.
How had he selectively ignored this before?
Cheng Feng stood beside bewildered and so uncomfortable, he asked aloud, "What’s with the sister-in-law and Miss Jun Li?"
"Think about Miss Jun Li’s Physique Level," Jiang Zhou reminded.
Cheng Feng touched the back of his head, Miss Jun Li’s Physique Level?
SSS-rank.
SSS-rank!!
"Could it be..." Cheng Feng suddenly widened his eyes, as surprised as when he first saw Qu Tong’s name.
Jiang Zhou nodded with an expression of "not too dumb."
"Boss! This is too fantastical," Cheng Feng tried to grab Si Yuting’s hand, recoiled at the icy glare, and instead grabbed Jiang Zhou’s shoulder.
Jiang Zhou disgustedly brushed it away.
Si Yuting had no intention of dealing with Cheng Feng’s outburst and handed two sheets of paper to Jiang Zhou, "Look for a treatment method."
Jiang Zhou briefly scanned the content, "I’ve seen this case before at Central Hospital, I’ll try to find something."
With that, he took the report and left.
"Boss, boss, it’s my turn now!" Cheng Feng was just about to voice all his doubts when Si Yuting swept a cold glance over him.
"I need to leave for some time, you help me keep an eye on Abel Star."
Cheng Feng’s heart instantly cooled down by half.
Without even thinking, he knew what the boss was up to.
He felt the urge too.
Howl howl howl!
The two exchanged duties for half an hour, and Cheng Feng left the office with his head hanging low.
He passed by the spirited Wu Yue.
Wu Yue grinned and entered the office proudly.
Wu Yue shared the data he had collected and then speculated with his professional eye.
"All the evidence points to the Kasa Empire, and moreover, the seventh prince of Kasa returned to his country two days ago."
Yuting’s gaze, however, slid to an insignificant piece of information: "An undercover agent of the Cangling Empire bought elixir from Miss Ali’s family?"
"Yes, it was purchased half a month ago. Several black markets in the Cangling Empire have been intermittently selling the madam’s elixirs."
Yuting had told Jiang Zhou about Qu Tong’s identity after calling him back, after all, he needed his help with the investigation.
Initially, Wu Yue found it hard to believe, thinking the boss was just suspicious. Only after doing the investigation himself did he discover many overlapping points.
It was only because the sister-in-law’s H-rank physique had long been deeply rooted, and since she had never exposed herself, who could link an H-rank physique with a top-tier SSS-rank?
"Does the boss suspect that the lady went to the Cangling Empire?"
Yuting was silent, which was a tacit acknowledgment.
Wu Yue puzzled: "But the Kasa Empire also has the lady’s elixir for sale, her business partner Hao Liang is the one who helps sell the elixirs, and the lady doesn’t know anyone in the Cangling Empire."
Yuting enlarged the information, tapping lightly with his fingertip: "The price, the lady’s elixir is much cheaper than ordinary elixirs."
Only then did Wu Yue come to a realization; the undercover agent had purchased it through internal channels, the price had not yet been inflated through the black market—just a mere 1 million."
Meanwhile, the starting bid for elixirs in the Kasa Empire’s black market is 3 million Star Coins.
Yuting left unsaid one more point he suspected; he felt that Ali had deliberately left to seek out Rong Chengjue, specifically to avoid leaving traces for people to track.
And Rong Chengjue was deliberately blurring his sight.
Moreover, Rong Chengjue’s aircraft had returned in the direction of the Kasa Empire but hadn’t appeared within Kasa, with only the Shadow Guard showing up.
Thinking that Rong Chengjue might have gone to the Cangling Empire, the air around Yuting grew noticeably colder.
Yuting dismissed Wu Yue.
His gaze fell upon the little tomato on the desk.
The little tomato, due to lack of care, was no longer as lively and green as before; if Ali were here, it would always be vibrant and colorful, now it bore no fruit.
Pressing his fingertips to his temples, he dialed Si Chen’s number.
The call connected, and Yuting went straight to the point: "Father, I need to take a leave."
"Take a leave?" Si Chen probably sat up from bed, quite curious, "For how long?"
"A month, maybe," Yuting was not so sure, "It might take longer."
"That long?" Si Chen spoke with obvious surprise, "What do you need such a long leave for?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a dull slap sounded through the call, followed by the Empress’s scolding, "Stop asking so many useless questions! Just approve Yuting’s leave; not just for a month, even a year is fine. Haven’t you consumed enough of Yuting’s vacations before?"
Si Chen’s voice grew much weaker: "There’s a negotiation in three months."
"Can’t someone else go? Are there no people left in the Canaan Empire? The Alchemist Association and your father are hopping around mightily; just send them."
After scolding, the Empress then leaned closer to the Light Brain, speaking tenderly: "Yuting, your mother approves your leave; you do what you need to do, you have your father and grandfather."
Yuting was already accustomed to his parents’ way of interacting; he thanked them, hung up the call, feeling an emptiness inside.
He stood up and took down a glass jar from the bookshelf.
He randomly took out one strand and opened it; it was the second one Ali had given him.
He recalled a similar phrase.
