Chapter 8526 8525-
"Vice Principal Sima, did Vice Principal MA really not return to the Academy because he was dating that woman?"
After leaving the central Chamber of Commerce, the student was a little uncertain.
"When we discovered that Deputy Dean MA had gone missing, we immediately searched the surrounding area, but no one saw any traces of Deputy Dean MA and that woman."
"It's hard to say now. Maybe they've hidden their tracks after they left the central Chamber of Commerce, so you two didn't notice them!"
"However, we can't be sure if Deputy Dean MA disappeared like the previous cases, or if he just left with someone else!"
Those people didn't leave any traces, but Deputy Dean MA did.
But these traces were an exception-if Lin Yi didn't have a connection with central, no one would've been able to find them.
Therefore, even if someone had come to the central Chamber of Commerce to investigate, even if the central Chamber of Commerce knew that this person had been to the Chamber of Commerce before, they would not tell anyone.
Lin Yi looked up at the sky-it was getting dark again. "Let's go back to the Academy first and arrange for more people to form a team to look for Deputy Dean MA. Maybe he's really somewhere ... Or maybe he's back by himself."
MA shenxiang had left the central Chamber of Commerce with the woman and then disappeared.
In short, this situation was a little ambiguous, and it was not good to make it known to the whole city. When MA shenxiang appeared himself, everyone's face would not look good.
The student didn't have much of an idea, so he followed whatever Lin Yi said and returned to the school.
Under Lin Yi's orders, the hundreds of students split into groups of three, ready to support each other at any time as they spread out into the capital, quietly searching for MA Shenzhong.
Lin Yi followed them in secret as well, his spirit sense covering the hundreds of students to ensure that they were safe.
If he didn't find MA shenxiang and lost a few students, Lin Yi would've felt like he couldn't even continue as Dean.
Unfortunately, he did not gain anything after a night.
At dawn, hundreds of students returned to the alchemy sub-school, exhausted.
Other than knowing that MA shenxiang had left the central Chamber of Commerce, there was still no useful clue, which was exactly the same as the previous disappearances.
"Dean Sima, did you discover anything last night?"
Yan Su came to Lin Yi's house as soon as she heard that he was back, her face serious.
"Director Yan, we didn't find anything last night. We didn't find anything unusual!"
Lin Yi shook his head, feeling uneasy.
As expected, Yan Su sighed and continued,""There were more than ten missing people in the Imperial City last night, including two students from our Tianxia college. The area where the missing people happened was completely different from the area you were searching. I don't know if the other party knew about your actions or if it was just a coincidence ..."
Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat as he asked for more details.
If the other party had known about it beforehand, that would be too terrifying. It would mean that his every move was under the other party's watch!
It was a good thing that Lin Yi found out that the area where MA shenxiang disappeared was very far from the area where he was searching for him.
If the imperial capital was divided into ten areas, the area where the students were searching and the area where the missing persons occurred were the two furthest ends.
There were seven or eight zones in the middle, so it was normal for them to stagger.
Of course, from another perspective, it could also be that the person who created the disappearance was avoiding Lin Yi on purpose. Whether it was a coincidence or intentional, it was still unknown.
"Director Yan, why are there still students wandering outside the academy alone? Didn't they issue an order to stop us from going out alone yesterday?"
Lin Yi frowned.
Yan Su was also a little helpless. She casually waved her hand and said,"The order has been given, but there will always be people who think that they are lucky. In addition, there are special reasons for wanting to go out, so the Academy can't forcefully stop everyone's actions."
"Director Yan, have you noticed the pattern of missing persons? There will always be a peak period, and then an incubation period. The disappearance cases that started the day before yesterday should be the prologue to a new peak period, so we must pay attention to it. "
Lin Yi changed the topic, and Yan Su looked worried.
"The pattern that Dean Sima spoke of has been raised by others before, but there was nothing we could do about it. We know that a new round of missing people is about to start, but we have no way to deal with it. Are we going to let everyone hide at home and not go out?"
When Yan Su said this, she could not help but sigh,""Even if they hide at home, we can't guarantee that there won't be people who go missing. When the whole family goes missing, no one will know for many days."
Lin Yi nodded. There was only one Tianxia school in the entire capital, and the other places didn't have the same defenses.
"Director Yan, let's go to martial league together and discuss this with the first hall Master. This isn't something that our Tianxia college can handle alone. We must gather all our forces to deal with it!"
Lin Yi suspected that the disappearance had something to do with the dark Demon beast clan. If he worked with the martial Alliance, he might be able to find some clues about the dark Demon beast clan in the martial Alliance.
In other words, there were so many missing people, but the reason why there were no clues was probably because the dark Demon beast clan in the martial Alliance was trying to cover it up!
"Let's go, this matter needs to be discussed with the first hall Master!"
Yan Su nodded in agreement, but the expression on her face seemed a little disapproving, as if she didn't have much hope for the head Hall Master and martial League.
In any case, the two of them rushed to martial League as fast as they could and met the first hall Master.
Speaking of the missing person, the first hall Master was also worried.""Dean Yan, Dean Sima, I can't do anything about this. I've already done everything I can. I've even sent out the combat Association's combat generals to increase their patrols and gather information. Do you have any better ideas?"
"This old man and Dean Sima came over to discuss with the first hall Master if we can come up with a more effective way to deal with the disappearance!"
"There have been too many tragedies in the past, and we have never been able to solve them!" Yan Su said with a serious face. If the disappearances continued, it would cause a Widespread Panic! I suggest that the martial League and the Academy join forces and use an even tougher method to deal with this crisis. What do you think?"
The first hall Master, however, had a hint of sadness on his face. He shrugged his shoulders indifferently. "I'm already at my wit's end. Director Yan, if you have any ideas, feel free to voice them out. As long as they're effective, it's fine to be a little forceful."
