“Zhang Xiaopang!”
Lu Ming gnashed his teeth.
Only this idiot would do such a thing!
Only this idiot would know those people with various kinds of such tricks!
Damn!
Lu Ming was furious.
Hahahaha.
Little Fatty. Very soon, your elder brother will teach you a lesson!
However…
The 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.
The vague smile…
The dreamy background…
One could not really make out the actual looks.
How should he say it?
Well…
This was the reason why a short-sighted classmate would feel that every girl in the world was a beauty.
There was mystic beauty.
In this illusion, Lu Ming’s image was as such.
Perhaps 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!
Well…
After all, he was dressed in female clothing!
He even had make-up on!
Anyway.
It did not have anything to do with the current Lu Ming.
They looked completely different. Even their charisma was the difference between heaven and earth.
“I am a true man!”
Lu Ming was certain.
He 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!
“I’m sure no one will recognize me.”
At the thought of this, Lu Ming heaved a gentle sigh of relief.
He 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.
Back at the shop.
Little Lu Ming was about to contact Zhang Xiaopang.
“Master, you’re back.”
Xiaobai came over happily.
“Yes.”
Lu Ming rubbed her little head.
Xiaobai accidentally sighted the small card in his hands. She revealed a look of shock. “Ah, master, you look so good with makeup on.”
Crap!
He glanced at the photo, followed by himself. How did she recognize him?
This was clearly two different people!
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
Lu Ming looked very serious. “How can this possibly be me?”
“Huh?”
Xiaobai was baffled.
She took a closer look. This was master indeed.
“You’ve got it wrong.”
Lu 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!”
“Alright.”
Xiaobai was a little puzzled. Was that true?
“Yes.”
“Good.”
Lu Ming rubbed her head. “Study hard. Don’t bother about these messy things.”
“Okay.”
Xiaobai went back to study then.
After she left, Lu Ming broke out in cold sweat.
Damn!
He had the fright of his life!
This would not do. This would not do. He had to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Little Lu Ming contacted Zhang Xiaopang immediately.
However…
He was surprised that he actually did not pick up the call!
Ring—
Ring—
There were only endless beeping sounds.
“You don’t dare to pick up the call?”
“Or did you hook up with some girl again?”
Lu Ming frowned.
Normally, he could not be bothered. However, now, he had to find this thing.
Hence, 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!
In addition, Xiaopang had not returned to his place of accommodation for a few days!
This was not logical!
Based 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!
In addition, he was supposedly away for a long trip?
After all, his wife was inside!
Did something happen?
This was Lu Ming’s first reaction.
After all…
He had worked a long time for those gray people. It was very dangerous.
Furthermore…
Zhang Xiaopang was also dangerous himself!
For example—
Some people never returned after visiting their online friends overseas.
After 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!
Must be freaking kidding me!
It was simply a miracle that he had survived until today!
Missing…
Lu 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!
Basically, there was no need for a badger game!
The girl herself could be a powerful battlefield figure, okay?!
Something had happened!
Lu Ming finally realized the problem.
What could be the matter?
Could this lad had done himself in as he had interacted with too many of those gray people?
Forget it.
He would look for the principal to help in the investigation.
At the thought of this…
Lu 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.
“Hello? Are you Lu Ming? Your friend, Zhang Xueyao, is with us… ”
A deep and calm voice said.
“Scram!”
Lu Ming hung up the phone without any reservation.
It was really…
He had no privacy at all.
He was certain that he must have exposed something when he searched for the missing persons information on the Internet earlier.
He had seen too many of such things.
As 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.
“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.”
Lu Ming sighed.
He had not expected such things to occur in this world!
Fraud…
Hehe.
Did they even look at who he was?!
At this moment, Lu Ming’s cell phone rang again. “Hello? Are you Lu Ming? Please don’t hang up the phone. We are… ”
“Zhang Xueyao is with you?” Lu Ming asked calmly.
“Uh… yes.”
Obviously, that person was at a loss of what to do.
“I don’t want it anymore.”
Lu Ming gave a long sigh. “I’ll give her to you.”
“Bam!”
Lu Ming hung up the phone again,
This was crazy!
To hell with Zhang Xueyao. Why did you not say Zhang Xueqi!
Swindlers!
Lu Ming pursed his lips.
Thereafter, 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…
This was the phone number of the Qing Ming City police.
Telephone scam?
This was Lu Ming’s first reaction.
Many 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.
He did not redial it.
He made a direct call through the official telephone number.
“Hello.”
A familiar voice could be heard from the other end of the phone.
Well…
It was the person who spoke to him earlier.
“It is a real police officer.”
Lu Ming clutched his head.
“Yes.”
The 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.”
“Oh.”
Lu Ming understood now.
However…
Who was Zhang Xueyao?
He really could not remember.
Could it be someone that was involved in the mine operation the last time?
Well…
He had no impression of it.
Oh, 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.
Well…
This was possible!
Lu Ming was perked up. “May I know what crime was committed?”
“Well…”
The other party paused for a while before saying, “Prostitution.”
Bang!
Lu Ming hung up the phone decisively.
To hell with it!
What kind of crime was prostitution!
Why did he call him?!
“Hello, hello, hello?”
The other party was speechless for some time.
This…
After a long time…
The phone got through again.
Lu 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.
“Why don’t you make a trip here?”
The other party felt very helpless.
He could only find one avenue of contact currently.
” I really don’t know who Zhang Xueyao is.”
Lu Ming sighed.
He was fine if it were other crimes…
But prostitution?
They must be kidding!
If 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…
Lu Ming trembled in shock.
To hell with it!
I would not go no matter what!
“Alright.”
The other party could only give up. He muttered, “I knew it. This damned fatty is lying… ”
“???”
“Wait a minute.”
Lu Ming suddenly called out to him. “Did you just say damned fatty?”
“Yes.”
The other party was certain.
Lu 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?”
“Do you know him?”
The other party was shocked.
Look at the description. One knew that this was someone close to him at once.
“It’s actually him!”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Zhang Xueyao?
What kind of fake name was that?
It was no wonder Zhang Xiaopang actually called himself Zhang Xiaopang. In addition, everyone called him that. So, his real name was actually Zhang Xueyao!
This was such a poetic and picturesque name…
Wait a minute…
It was fine that this was his name. Prostitution…
Lu Ming’s head was hurting a little.
“I’ll come over immediately.”
He hung up the phone and prepared to go out.
“Master, you’re going out?”
Xiaobai blinked her eyes.
“Yes.”
Lu 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.”
