n“Zhang Xiaopang!”

nLu Ming gnashed his teeth.

nOnly this idiot would do such a thing!

nOnly this idiot would know those people with various kinds of such tricks!

nDamn!

nLu Ming was furious.

nHahahaha.

nLittle Fatty. Very soon, your elder brother will teach you a lesson!

nHowever…

nThe only thing that he felt grateful about was that Zhang Xiaopang’s illusion was very shabby. Basically, it was just one girl and one room. The image was quite blurry too.

nThe vague smile…

nThe dreamy background…

nOne could not really make out the actual looks.

nHow should he say it?

nWell…

nThis was the reason why a short-sighted classmate would feel that every girl in the world was a beauty.

nThere was mystic beauty.

nIn this illusion, Lu Ming’s image was as such.

nPerhaps it was because they only had one photo. Little Lu Ming’s character was rather vague. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for anyone to recognize him!

nWell…

nAfter all, he was dressed in female clothing!

nHe even had make-up on!

nAnyway.

nIt did not have anything to do with the current Lu Ming.

nThey looked completely different. Even their charisma was the difference between heaven and earth.

n“I am a true man!”

nLu Ming was certain.

nHe was sure that he did not have the sissy characteristic of Little Lu Ming or the soft, weak and submissive character. He was a true man. The transformer type!

n“I’m sure no one will recognize me.”

nAt the thought of this, Lu Ming heaved a gentle sigh of relief.

nHe would go back first and then call Zhang Xiaopang over. He had decided to teach this thing a lesson this time. He really could not indulge this lad anymore.

nBack at the shop.

nLittle Lu Ming was about to contact Zhang Xiaopang.

n“Master, you’re back.”

nXiaobai came over happily.

n“Yes.”

nLu Ming rubbed her little head.

nXiaobai accidentally sighted the small card in his hands. She revealed a look of shock. “Ah, master, you look so good with makeup on.”

nCrap!

nHe glanced at the photo, followed by himself. How did she recognize him?

nThis was clearly two different people!

n“What nonsense are you talking about?”

nLu Ming looked very serious. “How can this possibly be me?”

n“Huh?”

nXiaobai was baffled.

nShe took a closer look. This was master indeed.

n“You’ve got it wrong.”

nLu Ming was solemn. “According to survey data, in this world, one in every eighty million people look the same as you. Furthermore, this is a woman!”

n“Alright.”

nXiaobai was a little puzzled. Was that true?

n“Yes.”

n“Good.”

nLu Ming rubbed her head. “Study hard. Don’t bother about these messy things.”

n“Okay.”

nXiaobai went back to study then.

nAfter she left, Lu Ming broke out in cold sweat.

nDamn!

nHe had the fright of his life!

nThis would not do. This would not do. He had to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Little Lu Ming contacted Zhang Xiaopang immediately.

nHowever…

nHe was surprised that he actually did not pick up the call!

nRing—

nRing—

nThere were only endless beeping sounds.

n“You don’t dare to pick up the call?”

n“Or did you hook up with some girl again?”

nLu Ming frowned.

nNormally, he could not be bothered. However, now, he had to find this thing.

nHence, Little Lu Ming specially went to look for Teacher An to find out about Zhang Xiaopang’s routine. He was shocked to discover that this lad actually did not attend school for the past few days!

nIn addition, Xiaopang had not returned to his place of accommodation for a few days!

nThis was not logical!

nBased on his understanding of Zhang Xiaopang, he would bring his luggage along wherever he went. Sometimes, he carried a bag even when he visited the shop!

nIn addition, he was supposedly away for a long trip?

nAfter all, his wife was inside!

nDid something happen?

nThis was Lu Ming’s first reaction.

nAfter all…

nHe had worked a long time for those gray people. It was very dangerous.

nFurthermore…

nZhang Xiaopang was also dangerous himself!

nFor example—

nSome people never returned after visiting their online friends overseas.

nAfter thinking, Lu Ming felt that, given Zhang Xiaopang’s crappy character, he would really have gone overseas to look for an adorable girl upon her invitation!

nMust be freaking kidding me!

nIt was simply a miracle that he had survived until today!

nMissing…

nLu Ming did a check on the Internet. There were actually many cases of missing persons in the Qing Ming City. This was because everyone could cultivate. It seemed to be more dangerous then!

nBasically, there was no need for a badger game!

nThe girl herself could be a powerful battlefield figure, okay?!

nSomething had happened!

nLu Ming finally realized the problem.

nWhat could be the matter?

nCould this lad had done himself in as he had interacted with too many of those gray people?

nForget it.

nHe would look for the principal to help in the investigation.

nAt the thought of this…

nLu Ming took out his cell phone again. However, just as he was prepared to call the principal, the phone suddenly rang. An unknown number was calling.

n“Hello? Are you Lu Ming? Your friend, Zhang Xueyao, is with us… ”

nA deep and calm voice said.

n“Scram!”

nLu Ming hung up the phone without any reservation.

nIt was really…

nHe had no privacy at all.

nHe was certain that he must have exposed something when he searched for the missing persons information on the Internet earlier.

nHe had seen too many of such things.

nAs a programmer, he knew exactly how clear those search mechanisms worked. The other party could have set up keywords such as ‘missing’, ‘hospital’ and ‘school fees’. Once you searched for these things, your information would be sent to some people who could carry out a scam.

n“I thought that only “Baidoo” 1. Baidoo is a similar name for Baidu, one of the companies specializing in Internet-related services would do this.”

nLu Ming sighed.

nHe had not expected such things to occur in this world!

nFraud…

nHehe.

nDid they even look at who he was?!

nAt this moment, Lu Ming’s cell phone rang again. “Hello? Are you Lu Ming? Please don’t hang up the phone. We are… ”

n“Zhang Xueyao is with you?” Lu Ming asked calmly.

n“Uh… yes.”

nObviously, that person was at a loss of what to do.

n“I don’t want it anymore.”

nLu Ming gave a long sigh. “I’ll give her to you.”

n“Bam!”

nLu Ming hung up the phone again,

nThis was crazy!

nTo hell with Zhang Xueyao. Why did you not say Zhang Xueqi!

nSwindlers!

nLu Ming pursed his lips.

nThereafter, he suddenly felt that something was not quite right. He took a closer look at that unknown number. Why did it seem so familiar? Oh, he remembered…

nThis was the phone number of the Qing Ming City police.

nTelephone scam?

nThis was Lu Ming’s first reaction.

nMany people to make use of base stations to imitate the police’s contact number to carry out the scam. However, after glancing at it, he simply called them himself.

nHe did not redial it.

nHe made a direct call through the official telephone number.

n“Hello.”

nA familiar voice could be heard from the other end of the phone.

nWell…

nIt was the person who spoke to him earlier.

n“It is a real police officer.”

nLu Ming clutched his head.

n“Yes.”

nThe one at the other end of the phone was already used to it. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Please make a trip here. Your friend Zhang Xueyao has been detained here for some matters.”

n“Oh.”

nLu Ming understood now.

nHowever…

nWho was Zhang Xueyao?

nHe really could not remember.

nCould it be someone that was involved in the mine operation the last time?

nWell…

nHe had no impression of it.

nOh, it could be a particular girl who admired him. She secretly kept his phone number. She could only contact him this time she met with danger.

nWell…

nThis was possible!

nLu Ming was perked up. “May I know what crime was committed?”

n“Well…”

nThe other party paused for a while before saying, “Prostitution.”

nBang!

nLu Ming hung up the phone decisively.

nTo hell with it!

nWhat kind of crime was prostitution!

nWhy did he call him?!

n“Hello, hello, hello?”

nThe other party was speechless for some time.

nThis…

nAfter a long time…

nThe phone got through again.

nLu Ming and the person at the other end of the phone were both silent. They did not say any word and could only hear each other panting… Oh, wrong. Breathing.

n“Why don’t you make a trip here?”

nThe other party felt very helpless.

nHe could only find one avenue of contact currently.

n” I really don’t know who Zhang Xueyao is.”

nLu Ming sighed.

nHe was fine if it were other crimes…

nBut prostitution?

nThey must be kidding!

nIf he had gone and been confirmed as — a business partner. What would he do then? How did they know each other? Eh, customer? Tsk tsk. In that case, you too…

nLu Ming trembled in shock.

nTo hell with it!

nI would not go no matter what!

n“Alright.”

nThe other party could only give up. He muttered, “I knew it. This damned fatty is lying… ”

n“???”

n“Wait a minute.”

nLu Ming suddenly called out to him. “Did you just say damned fatty?”

n“Yes.”

nThe other party was certain.

nLu Ming muttered to himself for a moment. “May I ask. The Zhang Xueyao that you mentioned. Is he a damned fat guy who has a figure as round as a ball, legs as short as dogs and brains as big as claws?”

n“Do you know him?”

nThe other party was shocked.

nLook at the description. One knew that this was someone close to him at once.

n“It’s actually him!”

nLu Ming was dumbstruck.

nZhang Xueyao?

nWhat kind of fake name was that?

nIt was no wonder Zhang Xiaopang actually called himself Zhang Xiaopang. In addition, everyone called him that. So, his real name was actually Zhang Xueyao!

nThis was such a poetic and picturesque name…

nWait a minute…

nIt was fine that this was his name. Prostitution…

nLu Ming’s head was hurting a little.

n“I’ll come over immediately.”

nHe hung up the phone and prepared to go out.

n“Master, you’re going out?”

nXiaobai blinked her eyes.

n“Yes.”

nLu Ming sighed. His eyes looked a little grim. “Your master is going to save a poodle who has been led astray. I will use it to brew dog soup for you to drink when I come back.”
