Chapter 37: Mysterious Thirteen
Lu Xinnuan watched on as Elder Su walked over to find Lu Mian.
Was Grandpa Su referring to Lu Mian?
The teachers were delivering a passionate speech on stage.
However, her brain was empty and nothing went in.
Elder Su walked towards Lu Mian’s seat quietly.
Lu Mian, with her collar slanted, tilted her head slightly and lazily removed her earphones.
Her cold eyes were asking him a question.
Elder Su said, “Mianmian, follow me out for a while.”
Lu Mian nodded and followed him out. Her seat was in the last row and she was sitting alone, so her movements would not affect anyone. However, a few students and parents saw it, which piqued their curiosity.
The few of them went to the corridor outside the hall.
Elder Su quickly summarized the situation to Lu Mian and said, “Mianmian, I know you’re good with computers. Could you help me find Sui Yuan’s whereabouts?”
Su Jue was so angry that he laughed. He was also very surprised that the person Grandpa Su was looking for was Lu Mian. Besides…
“Grandpa, don’t mess around. There are a lot of people good with computers. What’s the use of finding her? A person’s life is at stake, but you’re telling her…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Lu Mian’s icy-cold gaze cornered him.
It was a harsh and brutal gaze that was cold to the bones.
A few loose strands slipped down, but they could not hide the gleam in her eyes.
Su Jue was stunned.
He had met her a few times and was used to her coldness and distance, but her murderous gaze made him press his lips against each other tightly to compose himself.
Lu Xinnuan wanted to say something, but she could only force out a smile after opening her mouth and watched on quietly.
Lu Mian’s face was cold and she did not say a word. She immediately unlocked her phone and her fingers rapidly darted across the keyboard to send out a text, without caring about her black earphones that dropped out when she took out her phone.
Su Jue bent down to pick it up for her, but he was still worried. “Are you using a phone to find someone? Hackers still need a computer, right…?”
Su Qinghe glared at him and hit him with his walking stick, until he went a few metres away. “Shut up if you can’t help.”
He scolded him while hitting him.
Lu Xinnuan hurriedly went over to stop the fight.
Lu Mian ignored them and sat down on the floor after sending the message. She removed her watch cover and took out its back to pick out two very thin parts to connect them with the phone.
Her thin fingers moved around swiftly. The originally flat phone became a mini computer in no time.
Out of the two parts, one of them was projected onto the wall as a screen, while the other projected to the ground as a keyboard.
She bent down and her fingers darted rapidly as she stared at the screen without blinking.
Her movements required a lot of effort, but it did not impact her speed at all.
When the four words ‘Sui Yuan is missing’ ran through her brain, the speed she used to hack into the surveillance cameras in the entire country increased, as she keyed in a series of numbers which would look for Sui Yuan automatically.
The trio were still in a mess and they did not have the time to look at her.
Elder Su was teaching his grandchild a lesson.
Su Jue could only pretend to be filial and let his grandfather hit and scold him.
…
Ye Jinwen’s psychology clinic…
He was drinking his wolfberry tea when his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly woke up Xiao Qimo, who was napping on the couch.
“Seventh Brother! Thirteen!”
Xiao Qimo opened his eyes lazily and shifted his spectacles as he touched his nose. “Talk.”
Ye Jinwen pointed at the computer. “I found that mysterious person Thirteen’s signal. It’s very weak, but it did blink.”
The mysterious person, Thirteen, had his own unique set of data. Xiao Qimo’s system would detect the data once it appeared.
However, Xiao Qimo only decoded a part of it. If he managed to decode the entire data, he could find out the other party’s location accurately.
He squinted his eyes. “Where is he?”
