"Please speak slowly, don't rush. Did President Jiang go out on his own without telling you?"
"No. All his itineraries in Shanghai were arranged by me in advance. President Jiang's time is very tight; after these two days, he will fly to America. After we parted ways this morning, I took President Jiang to a hotel to stay. I saw he wasn't feeling well, so I let him rest in his room. It's almost noon now. When I called him for lunch, I found he was gone, and his phone was unreachable, indicating it was turned off. On the way to the hotel, President Jiang told me that if anything happened to him, I should find you directly. I was very puzzled why President Jiang would say that then. As soon as I discovered he was missing, I called you."
Liu Sen spoke quickly, briefly explaining the situation.
"Where are you now? Tell me your location, and I'll be right there."
"I'm at the You Li Wan Grand Hotel, located in the Pudong New Area..."
"Don't worry, I'm leaving now. I should arrive in about half an hour."
Guo Xuyang hung up the phone and said to Wu Youzhi, "You go find Xu Liping by taxi now. Remember, no matter what happens, your life comes first. I'm going to find President Jiang Qixin now. I hope nothing bad has happened!"
He then took out his phone and called Xiao Yu, "Captain Xiao, where are you? Still at the hospital? That's great. I just received news that President Jiang is missing. The one I told you about this morning, who was with us yesterday. Yes, that's him. I suspect people from the Anran Grand Hotel are responsible. By the way, did you catch that Big Gold Tooth? What? He got away. Hmm, be extremely careful, and if necessary, apply for personal protection. I don't know how powerful these people behind this are, but anyone who can make President Jiang disappear without a trace must be very influential. I'm going to find President Jiang now. Please be safe on your end."
Guo Xuyang hung up the phone and drove, following the navigation to the You Li Wan Grand Hotel.
"Mr. Liu, I've arrived. I'm in the You Li Wan Hotel parking lot. Where are you? I'll come find you."
"I'm in room 1111. You can come up."
When Guo Xuyang arrived, Liu Sen was on the phone.
"Yes, you bring ten people and wait for my call. Okay, that's all for now."
"You're here, Mr. Guo. This is President Jiang's room."
"Please step outside and close the door. Don't let anyone in unless I call you."
Liu Sen looked at Guo Xuyang with a hint of confusion but left without asking further questions.
Guo Xuyang maximized his perception, focused his gaze, and began searching from the front desk downstairs. He clearly sensed Jiang Qixin's presence. Two people entered, checked in at the front desk with their IDs, and then came to this room. Less than ten minutes after the two of them arrived, another person followed them in. This person wore a baseball cap, produced an ID at the front desk, and then went upstairs. As he exited the elevator, he glanced upwards. Guo Xuyang recognized this man; he was the one standing behind Big Gold Tooth. He took out a card, opened the room door, and entered. Not long after, he helped Jiang Qixin out, entered the elevator, went to the basement, and helped Jiang Qixin into a black Audi. The license plate ended with 013. The car drove away, and his perception ceased at that point.
He closed his eyes to recover for a moment and then called out, "Mr. Liu, you can come in. President Jiang was taken away by people from Anran Grand Hotel. They likely used something like a **. Please, can you find someone to trace the black Audi with the license plate ending in 013 and see its current location? We need to find the car's movement trajectory and location. It would be best if you hurry; we can't guarantee President Jiang's safety at this moment."
Liu Sen immediately made a call, "Immediately retrieve the movement trajectory and last known location of the black Audi ending in 013. I'm waiting for your call."
"Let's go, we'll wait downstairs," Guo Xuyang said, leading the way out of the room.
"Now, arrange for people to be on standby. I don't know what methods the other party will use against President Jiang. Also, contact a hospital and doctors in advance. I fear President Jiang will suffer greatly."
When the two arrived at the parking lot downstairs, Liu Sen's phone rang, "Speak. Riverside warehouse. Alright. Thank you for your trouble."
"Mr. Guo, the car's last parked location is the riverside warehouse," Liu Sen said.
"You lead the way. I'm not familiar with this place. Call me when we reach the location. I'm going to take a nap, don't disturb me," Guo Xuyang said, closing his eyes. Whether it was his body's weakness or the strain of using his abilities, he felt indescribably tired after each use. In less than half an hour, Liu Sen arrived at the Audi's parking spot. More than three hours had passed since Jiang Qixin's disappearance. As soon as he parked the car, Guo Xuyang opened his eyes. He maximized his perception and then stared intently. In a warehouse about a kilometer away, Jiang Qixin was tied high up on a beam, and someone was whipping him. Big Gold Tooth stood beside him.
"Arrange for people to come over now, and also prepare the hospital. President Jiang's condition is not good," Guo Xuyang said.
"The personnel are already on their way."
"Good, then have them follow. Go forward, there's a warehouse about a kilometer ahead, where President Jiang is. Be careful of the two people at the entrance; they seem to have equipment."
"These people are all elites, ex-special forces. They can handle these trash without any problems."
"Be extremely cautious; prevent them from acting desperately."
After getting out of the car, Liu Sen raised his hand and gestured forward. Six people charged forward in a fan formation. Guo Xuyang followed closely behind, noticing four more people following at the rear. He didn't understand combat tactics but observed that these people were extremely professional, moving in small, quiet steps. Each of them was armed. His perception of Jiang Qixin's identity increased further. This was not someone ordinary could attract.
When the group reached the warehouse entrance, the two individuals at the front exchanged a look, quickly kicked open a small door, and leaped inside. The four people behind them flashed in. Before any sound was heard, the fight was over. The people in front signaled inwards, and Guo Xuyang and Liu Sen followed. Big Gold Tooth hadn't expected to be discovered so quickly. He wanted to grab Jiang Qixin as a hostage, but he wasn't tall enough. Another man was about to reach into his pocket when he was stopped by two people in time. His struggle was met with a palm strike, and he was knocked unconscious. The man holding the whip was kicked unconscious by Liu Sen.
"Quickly, bring down President Jiang and send him to the hospital. Take all the remaining people away. You must interrogate them to find out their origins! I want clear information by tonight," he said.
