“Dean Sima, you can share your thoughts with the first hall Master for his reference,” Yan Su turned to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi did suggest some methods when the two came, but they weren’t necessarily effective.
“Fine, I’ll share my thoughts with you. First of all, it’s not enough to just patrol. It’s easy to miss something. I think we should set up checkpoints in the imperial capital and check every street.”
Lin Yi organized his thoughts and continued,”The inspection needs to confirm one’s identity, so the martial Alliance and the Academy have joined forces to conduct a population check and draw out the areas. Before the martial law is lifted, no activities beyond the area are allowed, or they must obtain the joint approval of the martial Alliance and the Academy. They can only move beyond the area with a valid reason …”
All of these things required a strong overall strength and ability to operate.
In addition, the people in the capital must be willing to cooperate.
However, as long as it could be implemented, it would greatly suppress the concealment ability of the people who had gone missing.
After the first hall Master heard this, he pondered for a while and then said,””Dean Sima’s suggestion is very good, but it’s too difficult to implement. Moreover, we don’t have that many people to do it.”
“You also know that our greatest enemy is the darkness demon beast clan. If we throw all our manpower into this, we’ll be caught off guard if the darkness demon beast clan makes any strange moves.”
His words were very tactful, and there was only one meaning: no!
Lin Yi had no choice-he couldn’t force the first hall Master to agree to his suggestion, after all, and the first hall master’s concerns made sense.
If the darkness demon beast clan took the opportunity to launch an attack, the imperial capital’s ability to adapt would be greatly weakened.
Yan Su also gave some suggestions, but they were not carried out smoothly. In the end, she still gained nothing.
Lin Yi and Yan Su returned to Tianxia school. After thinking for a long time, Lin Yi suddenly suggested, Director Yan, since martial League doesn’t have any effective methods, we can only think of a way ourselves.”
“How about I be the bait and try to lure out the mastermind behind the disappearance? As long as we know the location of their lair, we might be able to find all the missing people, and even find clues for those who have disappeared before. ”
Lin Yi thought that most of the missing people were dead, but he still had a sliver of hope until he saw their bodies.
“Dean Sima, it’s too dangerous for you to be the bait! If there’s any accident, the losses would be too great!”
Yan Su objected subconsciously.
It wasn’t easy for Tianxia college to have a Diamond Grade alchemy Grandmaster as the head of the alchemy sub-school, if something happened, there would be no place for him to regret.
It was like using a good antique porcelain to smash a walnut. Let’s not talk about whether the walnut could be broken, but if the porcelain broke, wouldn’t one’s heart hurt?
“Director Yan, don’t worry. I know what I’m doing. After all, a few of our students have gone missing, and even Deputy Dean MA is missing. As the director of Tianxia College’s alchemy division, I have no responsibility!”
Lin Yi’s real intention was to find out if the dark Beast clan was involved in this. Deputy Dean MA was just an excuse, and they weren’t close enough to risk their lives for him.
Yan Su hesitated in her heart, but she did not allow it!
“Dean Sima, why don’t I be the bait? I’ll be more confident this way!”
The old man was a cute guy, and he thought that it’d be a lot safer for him to be there.
Lin Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he spread his hands.”Director Yan, is there anyone in the imperial capital who doesn’t know you? If you walk on the street, who would dare to have thoughts about you?”
As one of the strongest fighting forces in Fengqi continent, Yan Su had long been famous.
Although he looked like an unremarkable skinny old man, there were not many people who did not recognize him.
It couldn’t be helped. He was too famous, and as the Dean of Tianxia college, he often appeared in public. In addition, he had a hot temper and would make some noise from time to time. It was difficult for people in the imperial capital not to know him.
“That’s why I said that if director Yan were to use you as bait, the other party definitely wouldn’t fall for it. But I’m different. I haven’t been in Feng Qi great continent for long, and I usually stay in the Academy and don’t go out in public, so very few people know me. ”
“If I pretend to be a student who goes out alone, I’ll attract the attention of the mastermind. You should’ve noticed by now, Dean Yan-students who go out alone have a high chance of going missing.”
Yan Su thought for a moment, and it was really the case!
Recalling the students who had gone missing before, they realized that they had all gone out on their own, and they made up at least 90% of the students who had gone out on their own during the disappearance period.
“That seems to be the case … Our Academy’s students are the other party’s main target?!”
Yan Su was furious. This was F * cking preposterous. The students he regarded as his hope for the future were actually the main targets of the Black Hand?
“That’s right. So, if I pretend to be a student and go out alone, there’s a high chance that I’ll lure out the mastermind behind the scenes. By then, I’ll leave marks along the way, and director Yan, you can bring your people and follow me. Then, you can catch the other party in one fell swoop!”
Lin Yi’s words finally touched Yan Su. Compared to the whole school, Lin Yi’s risk was necessary.
As the Academy’s higher-ups, they should indeed be prepared to sacrifice themselves for the students!
“Good! This old man understands!”
Yan Su nodded seriously and reminded Lin Yi,”Dean Sima, you must be careful. You can’t force yourself. If there’s danger, you must first protect yourself!”
“Understood!”
Lin Yi nodded.
It was evening time, and Lin Yi sneaked out of the school in his Tianxia school uniform.
Due to the prohibition of going out alone, the students in the Academy were no longer able to leave the Academy openly.
Lin Yi was putting on a show, getting into character right from the start.
According to the areas where disappearances occurred in the past and the situation this time, Lin Yi estimated where the disappearances were most likely to happen today. After leaving the school, he headed towards his destination.
Along the way, he also kept an eye on his surroundings with his divine sense, trying to see if anyone had followed him when he left the Academy.
The result was that he wasn’t followed.
Perhaps the other party had other means of surveillance and could directly send the news out without sending people to follow them.
It’d be hard for Lin Yi to find out.
If there really was someone following Lin Yi, it would be much easier. Under the strong monitoring of the spirit sense, no one could hide.
Lin Yi didn’t notice anything unusual, so he could only follow the plan and head to the designated area.
What if the mastermind behind the scenes did not fall for it?
After all, what he had said to Yan Su was only a guess. It would be too disappointing if he had spent so much effort to gain nothing.
