Chapter 741: I Can't Wait

"Sorry, I can't wait," Chen Yu shook his head and said, "You police have to do everything by the book; it's rigid and inflexible. If I wait for you, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"What did you say? You cannot act as a lone hero." Zhou Xinyan was furious. Was Chen Yu blatantly discriminating against her?

"I have never been any kind of lone hero; I just want to save people," Chen Yu said coldly. "You take your time making your plans; I am going to find a way now."

After saying this, Chen Yu turned and left, leaving Zhou Xinyan behind, trembling with anger.

"Tang Xue, I have already learned about Yueyue's situation, but I don't know where she is right now, so I need something she has used, like a comb or a mirror."

After leaving, Chen Yu called Tang Xue directly. Since he didn't know where Yueyue was, he had to use some extraordinary means.

"Brother Chen, I will find them for you right away. Wait for me a moment," Tang Xue replied hurriedly.

Half an hour later, Chen Yu appeared at the orphanage, and Tang Xue was already waiting for him with some items Yueyue had used.

Chen Yu picked out a comb from these items, with a few of Yueyue's hairs still remaining on it.

Chen Yu took those hairs off and carefully wrapped them in a piece of paper.

"Brother Chen, what are you doing?" Tang Xue asked.

"Finding where she is. Using her hair, combined with her birth date and time, I might be able to roughly lock onto her location," Chen Yu said. "But the person who took Yueyue is no ordinary person. If he has cut off Yueyue's connection to the outside world, I'm afraid this method won't work."

"What if this method doesn't work?" Tang Xue was a bit anxious.

"If this method doesn't work, I will think of other ways. Don't worry," Chen Yu comforted her.

Carrying these items, Chen Yu went to an intersection and began to perform his arts.

With a few bowls of clear water, a Straw Man wrapped in yellow Talisman Paper, and a few burning candles, Chen Yu pinched a Dao Formula with both hands, drew in the void toward the clear water, and silently recited incantations.

As he pointed his right hand, the Talisman Paper on the Straw Man suddenly ignited. The Talisman Paper had Yueyue's hair on it. Chen Yu was performing the Soul Fixing Technique to roughly lock onto the direction where Yueyue was located.

It was just that this method might not necessarily work. For one, the other party was also an expert and likely had connections to the Onmyoji of Fusang. If the other party performed arts to cut off the connection here, then Chen Yu's use of the Soul Fixing Technique would be ineffective.

Furthermore, Chen Yu did not have Yueyue's fresh blood, so the positioning might not be very accurate. He only hoped these few hairs would work.

As the Talisman Paper burned out, the flames of the three candles suddenly enlarged. With a 'whoosh', the flames flickered toward the north simultaneously, and at the same time, the three bowls of clear water suddenly tipped over onto the ground, flowing toward the north.

The three bowls of water spilled onto the ground, but the water did not disperse; instead, it formed a straight line, flowing five or six meters directly to the north before slowly coming to a stop.

"Bring me a map of Beijing," Chen Yu said after visually estimating the direction the water flowed.

"Brother Chen, here is the map," Tang Xue hurriedly retrieved a map and handed it to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu took the map, calculated the length of the water flow against the scale of the map, and then roughly circled a location in one area.

"Yueyue is at this location. Because I don't have Yueyue's blood, the locked location isn't very clear. It's roughly in this range, with an error margin of a few kilometers," Chen Yu said. "I'm going there now."

"Brother Chen, do I need to notify the police? My cousin and her team have already set up a special task force to investigate. They said Yueyue isn't the only child who has gone missing this time, and the Municipal Bureau is taking it very seriously," Tang Xue said.

"Don't notify them for now. If we search with great fanfare, it will definitely alert the enemy. This matter is not an ordinary one either," Chen Yu said. "Don't worry, I will definitely bring Yueyue back safely."

"Brother Chen, I want to go with you," Tang Xue grabbed Chen Yu's hand.

"If you go, I'll have to take care of you, which will make things complicated. You stay home and wait for my news; nothing will happen," Chen Yu smiled.

"This..." Tang Xue hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily.

"Chen Yu, the action team has been established. I have handed the task over to the deputy captain," just then, Zhou Xinyan, dressed in plain clothes, suddenly walked in.

"You?" Chen Yu looked at her; this woman should have decent skills.

"I am a police officer. No matter who the person behind this is, I should be the one to step forward and resolve it," Zhou Xinyan said with a determined face. "We will go first, and the action team will follow to support. Additionally, I have already contacted the local police and asked them to investigate secretly. In this way, the chances of finding them should be greater."

"Alright then, let's go," Chen Yu looked at Zhou Xinyan with surprise. "You are different from those other people."

"We aren't just sitting around doing nothing," Zhou Xinyan frowned; she felt Chen Yu had a prejudice against her.

Actually, it wasn't that Chen Yu was intentionally looking down on Zhou Xinyan. After all, Zhou Xinyan was too beautiful, and her father held a high-ranking position in the bureau, so Chen Yu felt that for her to climb so high in her twenties, it certainly wasn't based on her own ability.

However, seeing her swift and decisive way of doing things, Chen Yu felt he might have misjudged her.

"I didn't mean that, sorry. Let's go," Chen Yu smiled and got into the car with Zhou Xinyan.

The place Chen Yu locked onto was a mountainous area in the northern suburbs. This place had previously been acquired by a company intending to develop it for tourism, but for some reason, it had been shelved.

Because the locked range was too large, the search work was not progressing smoothly.

Because they were afraid of alerting the enemy, the follow-up action team could not enter rashly; only Chen Yu and Zhou Xinyan entered this area to investigate undercover.

Although this place was ostensibly to be developed into a tourist area, in reality, the developer had privately built many villas inside. This situation was not uncommon in the country; after all, building houses was more profitable than anything else.

Moreover, the villas here were all very large, belonging to the category of private estates. People who could afford to buy here were naturally not ordinary people, so it was very troublesome for the two of them to search.

"Chen Yu, searching like this isn't a solution," Zhou Xinyan said with a furrowed brow. "I think we should still have the team come in to search."

"That would likely alert the enemy. Let's look a bit more," Chen Yu said. "By the way, that Dong Shan, are there any photos or anything?"

"Yes, we police had Dong Shan select a portrait on the computer." Zhou Xinyan took out her phone, but only then did she discover that her phone had no signal at all.

"Why is there no signal on the phone?" Zhou Xinyan was startled.

"I don't have a signal either," Chen Yu looked ahead and saw that in front of them was already the mountain peak, where a massive, extremely luxurious villa was situated right on the summit.
