On this trip to Luoyang City, Ren Xiaosu brought Wang Yuchi and the others with him. Meanwhile, Wang Fugui and the others stayed behind at Stronghold 61 to continue waiting for Yan Liuyuan and his Sister Xiaoyu.
After all, if Yan Liuyuan and the others came looking for them after reading the newspaper but there was no one here, they might miss them.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, Ren Xiaosu got Wang Fugui to temporarily give up on his business on the trade routes.
According to Ren Xiaosu's plan, he only needed to look for Yang Xiaojin or the Saboteurs when he went to the Qinghe University. After settling Wang Yuchi and the others down at the school, he would prepare to come back. It would not take too long.
However, during the month that Zhou Yingxue was in a coma, Ren Xiaosu was also thinking about a question. Were Yan Liuyuan and his Sister Xiaoyu really still alive?
It had already been a month. The longer he waited, the heavier Ren Xiaosu's mood became.
Hope was ignited again and again and then dashed again and again. It was just like the world itself.
But fortunately, he had already looked for Wang Fugui, which finally gave him some confidence.
Unlike other big shots who traveled in off-road vehicles, Ren Xiaosu and the others were taking Wang Fugui's truck to Luoyang City this time. After all, it was considered a rather unique means of transportation in the wilderness.
As Qin Sheng drove, he asked Ren Xiaosu, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, "Brother Xiaosu, on behalf of the Knight, I would like to express my gratitude to you for lending a helping hand at a time like this. To be honest, very few people are willing to help others these days."
Ren Xiaosu said politely, "Why are you being so polite with me? After all, I won so much money from you, so it's only right for me to help you."
Qin Sheng's face immediately darkened. "Ahem, ahem, don't mention the matter of us playing cards in front of the teacher …"
Nothing unexpected happened on the way, but what surprised Ren Xiaosu was that when they were about to reach Luoyang City, Qin Sheng drove to the black market outside Luoyang City first, saying that he had something to do.
Ren Xiaosu told him to go and come back quickly, but when Qin Sheng came back, there was a strong smell of blood on him, as if he had just killed someone.
He had killed more than one person.
"He went to kill people?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
Qin Sheng said as he started the truck, "Yes, to clean up some people who want to take advantage of the situation. We didn't care about these people in the black market in the past, but now it's not suitable to keep them around. After the new manager of the black market took office, they haven't been very cooperative, and they even betrayed us."
It was only at this moment that Qin Sheng looked more like a Knight and not the innocent young man who hung out with them and played cards with them every day.
Ren Xiaosu thought to himself that special times called for special measures. Now that the Knight had started to eliminate the hidden dangers within the organization, it meant that they had sensed a very big crisis.
At this moment, Qin Sheng took out a copy of Hope Media's newspaper, which Qin Sheng had just brought back from the black market. Ren Xiaosu glanced at it and saw that it was today's newspaper.
Why did he suddenly buy a newspaper to read at this time? It was not that it was impossible, but it was a little abnormal.
Ren Xiaosu suddenly realized that the Knight usually used Hope Media's newspaper to secretly transmit the more secretive information?
"Let's go back to Luoyang City." Qin Sheng stepped on the accelerator and said, "I've just informed my teacher about you traveling together with us. He said he'd like to treat you to a meal. The current acting chairman of the Qinghe Group, Xu Ke, would also like to meet you. Brother Xiaosu, what do you think?"
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said, "There's no rush. When we get to Luoyang City, I'll make a trip to Qinghe University first."
"I'm afraid you can't get into Qinghe University right now." Qin Sheng said, "In order to protect those students, the entire school has been cordoned off. Unless you have a student ID, you can't get in. If Brother Xiaosu wants to go and have a look, I can get you a student ID afterward. You can stay there as long as you want. "
"It's fine, I can just climb over the wall and get in," Ren Xiaosu said nonchalantly.
Qin Sheng was having a headache. 'Can you not say that in front of me?'
He said to Ren Xiaosu, "Then why don't you go to Qinghe University first and set the meal time for tomorrow night?"
"OK," Ren Xiaosu agreed.
When Qin Sheng saw Ren Xiaosu agree, he heaved a sigh of relief. As a matter of fact, the entire Knight Organization valued Ren Xiaosu more now. On one hand, they were suspicious of Ren Xiaosu's identity. On the other hand, everyone already knew he was the Young Marshal of Fortress 178, so they naturally did not want to slight him.
Even if Ren Xiaosu was not the person they were looking for, everyone would still be happy to see him maintain a good relationship with Fortress 178. Moreover, the Knight Organization had always been kind to Fortress 178 and admired those adorable soldiers from the border fortresses.
Now that the Qinghe Group was facing a crisis, it was naturally a good thing that they had strong reinforcements joining them.
They only arrived at Luoyang City in the evening. This time, Luoyang City was not like the last time Ren Xiaosu visited. It was already very deserted outside the gate.
The Qinghe Group had temporarily canceled the entry rights for business and work visas. Most of the refugees who needed to enter the stronghold to work were stopped at the door.
The refugees did not know what had happened, but they understood this was very abnormal. If they were not allowed to enter, so be it. In any case, the Qinghe Group would compensate them for their losses.
Over the past two days, the Qinghe Group had sent some meat to town and informed the refugees who had work visas that they would pay compensation for their loss of work.
This was probably the reason why Luoyang City was not affected much after the Wang Clan announced that Stronghold 61 was open to the public. That was because the Qinghe Group had always treated the refugees very well, and everyone was unwilling to leave this environment where they grew up.
After Ren Xiaosu entered the stronghold, he first went to the square where he had met Li Shentan. He wanted to look for Li Shentan and ask him what he meant by those words.
But when he arrived at the square, the entire square was still bustling with people. However, he could not find any trace of Li Shentan.
He had also asked Qin Sheng if there were any traces of the various organizations, but Qin Sheng did not answer his question.
With that, Ren Xiaosu could only rely on himself.
Just as Ren Xiaosu was on his way to Qinghe University, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.
Ren Xiaosu could not recall who that person was. By the time he chased after him, he realized that person had already merged into the crowd.
At this moment, there was no curfew in Luoyang City, so the residents were not really affected. They would still go out at night to shop, eat snacks, and watch performances.
It was as though all the dangers were hidden in the sea of people and were drowned out by them.
"Master, who are you looking for?" Zhou Yingxue asked as she held a piece of roasted sweet potato in her hand.
"I have a feeling that it should be someone I've seen before. It's a woman, but I can't remember who she is. I only saw her back." Ren Xiaosu frowned as he searched his memories.
Zhou Yingxue did not disturb Ren Xiaosu anymore. Instead, she ate the roasted sweet potato in peace. There was still a piece wrapped in a plastic bag in the pocket of her coat. She would give it to her master when he was done thinking.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu jolted awake. He remembered who the back he had seen earlier was. It was Dong Funan!
That was Dong Funan, a supernatural being they had encountered in the Southwest stronghold. She had awakened vampire-like powers, but two of her fangs had been knocked out by her own disciple!
This girl had been taken away by Yang Xiaojin's men at that time, so she might have already joined the Saboteurs.
Therefore, there really were Saboteurs in Luoyang City. This was the first time he had found any clues about the Saboteurs since he entered the Central Plains!
