Chapter 969 Looking back (first update)
When Xia Yuanfang said this, his tone was unhurried and unhurried, like a standard time teller.

But it gave people an invisible sense of oppression, which was more effective than any cruel words she said.

The little "courage" that Meng Guanghui had just gained disappeared in an instant.

His straight back even bent a bit, and with a hint of flattery and humility that he didn't even know he had, Meng Guanghui said condescendingly: "Aunt Xia, we are already looking for..."

As he spoke, he paused briefly and glanced quickly at Huo Yushen, wondering if he could tell Xia Yuanfang the latest news.

Huo Yushen shook his head slightly at him.

Meng Guanghui's voice became even lower: "...but there is no news yet. But don't worry, as soon as we have first-hand news, we will notify you immediately!"

Xia Yuanfang watched Meng Guanghui's every move on the virtual display screen intently, not missing his pause just now.

Although it was only for a moment and could not be distinguished even with the naked eye, Xia Yuanfang's keen intuition and amazing observation skills still noticed the slightest difference.

Just now, Meng Guanghui seemed to glance in one direction.

That kind of movements and expressions are not particularly unfamiliar to Xia Yuanfang.

That was the attitude of asking for instructions from the superiors present.

Superior?

Xia Yuanfang's eyes flashed slightly and he asked calmly: "Really? Are you looking for me? How did you find them? Can you tell me, the only direct relative you met for the first time, about your actions?"

Meng Guanghui smiled awkwardly and said, "That can't be said...this must be kept secret."

Xia Yuanfang nodded: "So you did take action. Did you take action recently, or did you start taking action as soon as you learned that my niece was missing?"

Meng Guanghui thought to himself, Huo Shuai was going with him, who knew he could lose Xia Chujian?
But he didn't dare to question his immediate boss...

Moreover, after Huo Yushen came back, his mood was extremely bad to the naked eye. Who dares to ask what happened at that time?
In the past, they had no other feelings about Huo Yushen except that he was like ten thousand years of ice, inaccessible to strangers.

His emotions have always been very reserved, and no one can detect his emotional changes.

But this time, they felt it...

So I am more worried, more scared, and more at a loss.

Now being questioned by Xia Yuanfang, Meng Guanghui's head got big.

How can he answer this?
Meng Guanghui hesitated and said: "Well... of course we are looking for it, but our actions are indeed confidential."

When Xia Yuanfang heard what he said, he understood that he couldn't make the decision.

So Xia Yuanfang asked the next question he had prepared a long time ago: "Excuse me, is your boss, Inspector Huo, here?"

"If he's here, I'd like to talk to him."

Meng Guanghui's scalp was numb. At this time, he did not dare to look in the direction of Huo Yushen and said bluntly: "Our chief inspector is in a meeting. If you have anything, you can tell me and I will pass it on to the chief inspector."

This time, he was not negligent at all.

Even Xia Yuanfang was wondering at this time whether the slight change she had just glimpsed was because she was being too preoccupied.
Because Meng Guanghui didn't show any signs of asking for instructions from his superiors this time.

Xia Yuanfang turned off the video call and sat in his study uneasily, looking out the window.

At this time, it was night when the Beichen galaxy returned to the distant star Mulan City.

It was already the end of May, and it had been more than a month since Xia first saw him joining the interstellar expedition team and exploring the stars.

She hasn't spoken to Xia Chujian for more than a month.

Half a month ago, the starry sky expedition team of the First Military University of the Beichen Empire returned, and the students returned to their own planets and schools.

When Xia Yuanfang started, he didn't know that Xia Chujian hadn't come back.

One of Xia Chujian's classmates, named Chen Yanjun, secretly found the address of Xia Chujian's villa near the school and told the housework robot there that Xia Chujian had disappeared while exploring the starry sky, and asked him to tell it to The family I met for the first time in summer.

This housework robot was bought by Xia Chujian and Xia Yuanfang after they arrived at the Imperial City.

It contains the contact information of Xia Chujian and Xia Yuanfang.

After knowing this news, its extremely limited mechanical intelligence can also judge that this news is very important.

Therefore, it was transferred to Xia Yuanfang immediately.

Xia Yuanfang was doing an experiment that could not be disturbed.

By the time her experiment was completed, it was already the second day after the housekeeping robot sent the message.

Xia Yuanfang was dubious at first.

Because Xia Chujian hasn't been in contact with his family every day since he went to college on the Imperial Star. Sometimes he doesn't contact his family for more than a month.

In the mood to give it a try, she sent a message to Xia Chujian, saying that she was feeling very uncomfortable and hoped that she would contact her family.

Xia Yuanfang knew that if he talked about other things, Xia Chujian might not reply immediately.

But if she said she wasn't feeling well, Xia Chujian would definitely contact her immediately.

But she waited for three days and still didn't get a reply from Xia Chujian.

Only then did Xia Yuanfang confirm that something must have happened to Xia Chujian.

So she first sent a video call invitation to the political affairs attaché of the First Military University of the Beichen Empire.

When it comes to student safety issues, the political affairs specialist of your grade will definitely be the one to talk to.

The political affairs commissioner was none other than Zong Ruoning.

When he saw Xia Yuanfang's video call invitation, he answered it immediately.

Xia Yuanfang's conversation with Zong Ruoning was not pleasant.

It wasn't Zong Ruoning's attitude problem, nor was it Xia Yuanfang's unreasonableness, but the result made both parties sad. Because Zong Ruoning confirmed the news of Xia Chujian's disappearance.

Xia Yuanfang was so angry that his blood pressure suddenly rose.

"Missing?! How come you are missing?! You are still missing in a course-related activity organized by the school?!"

Xia Yuanfang asked.

Zong Ruoning smiled bitterly and replied: "Yes, we are a military school. We have informed the students in advance about this situation and have all signed an agreement."

"Not only will they disappear, but they may also be disabled or even sacrificed."

"Several students died during this event, and several others were seriously injured and are being treated."

"There are several missing students, and Xia Chujian is just one of them."

The students who were swept away by the strange fog on the Green Star were treated as missing because their bodies were not found.

Just like those teachers and students who lost contact nineteen years ago.

Xia Yuanfang was very angry at the time and asked: "There is still such an agreement?! How come you don't know about the parents?!"

Zong Ruoning said this: "Our students are already adults and they can sign this kind of agreement by themselves."

Xia Yuanfang was stunned again.

Yes, we were already adults when we first met.

Her supervision is no longer needed...

She closed her eyes, feeling uneasy in her heart.

She asked Zong Ruoning to tell her exactly what happened when Xia Chujian disappeared.

Zong Ruoning did not say anything too specific, only saying that they were attacked at that time, and Xia Chujian accidentally fell into a "door" that suddenly appeared in order to save his classmates.

Then the "door" disappeared, and none of them could get in, and Xia Chujian couldn't get out.

However, Zong Ruoning also assured: "Please rest assured that our school has not given up search and rescue."

"We haven't returned yet, so we contacted the school and asked them to go to that galaxy immediately to launch a rescue operation."

"Unfortunately, our rescue spacecraft did not find the green star that was missing at first sight."

"Currently, they are still searching in that galaxy. Please rest assured that I will personally keep an eye on this matter and will not let them go unanswered."

As far as the school is concerned, they have indeed done what they can.

The rest is left to fate.

After Xia Yuanfang learned the news, his mood was really hard to describe.

She sat alone in her study, looking at the manor scenery outside the window, and pondered for a long time.

The appearance of the "door" made her suddenly feel that Xia Chujian's disappearance was not a simple accident.

There had been a "door" in her life.

But that "door" brought them demons, killings, and endless disasters and destruction!
Now, the "door" appears again.

Is it the "door" she has seen before?

Or is she overthinking it?

After all, this place is so different from her previous world.

And those things have been here for a long time, and there is no need for a "door" to serve as a passage for them to enter and exit!

So what kind of world did Xia Chujian enter?
With this in mind, Xia Yuanfang made a video call invitation with Meng Guanghui of the Special Security Bureau.

She didn't even get the slightest useful information from Meng Guanghui.

Because Meng Guanghui did not follow him after all, and because of disciplinary restrictions, he could not say many things to outsiders.

Therefore, the situation he described was far less detailed than Zong Ruoning's.

Although Zong Ruoning also concealed something, Meng Guanghui was completely clueless.

But Xia Yuanfang did not give up.

She set a fixed time and communicated with the school and Meng Guanghui on time every day.

Of course, when I made a video call to the school later, it was not with Zong Ruoning, but with a phone number published by the school.

Because after this operation, in view of the large number of dead and missing students and teachers, the school opened a video call hotline to provide special services to parents and related parties.

Half a month later, only Xia Yuanfang was still calling the video call hotline set up by the school at a fixed time every day.

Other parents of students gradually stopped calling after receiving compensation and insurance money from the school.

Because the school promised to notify them as soon as there is news.

They all stopped except Xia Yuanfang.

Xia Yuanfang not only put great pressure on Meng Guanghui of the Special Security Bureau, but even the young staff member of the school who was responsible for the video call hotline couldn't stand her anymore.

It is said that the young staff member now almost had an overreaction to the video call hotline.

As soon as he heard the red light requesting a video call, he shivered and even had early symptoms of weak legs, frequent urination and fainting...

This is the first update, and the second update will be at five minutes past twelve noon.
