Chapter 393: Chapter 392: Mia Playing Games

Yusuf Zuck completely disappeared, and everyone failed to find even a trace of him despite searching until dusk. Of course, in addition to looking for Yusuf, Samuel Ross and others also started taking action.

One approach was to leverage their connections with Everest Zuck and Ace Vance, asking for their help to provide intelligence on suspects.

Then there was Anais Dillon and his wife, Mary Berger, who met up with Isaac Quintana again and headed to the scene of the incident to investigate.

After Anna Cooke returned home, she also took advantage of her family connections to help search for Yusuf, while simultaneously keeping an eye on the case.

The Petty Family got involved too; although their power base was not in the capital, they had relatives there, so the Petty family patriarch personally took charge. He approached another household head of the Petty Family, briefed them on the situation, and then they dispatched people on all fronts to search for Yusuf, for the perpetrator.

Russ Trujillo and Felicity O’Brien also cast a wide net through the Dragon Group.

When Felicity O’Brien had met with Yusuf Zuck, she’d been completely reluctant and found him disagreeable, but now that he was actually in trouble, she was immensely anxious. After all, it was her sister who loved him, so of course she would be busy helping.

The capital was swirling with activity as many forces, including Ariel Higgins who had taken over Brother Dao’s power, sent out their people to gather every piece of information.

Fleur Carson also received the news that Yusuf Zuck was in trouble, but he was still in Tianjin at the time. Yusuf’s last order to him had been to protect Ruth Wilcox, so Fleur could only follow the situation discreetly and chose not to inform Ruth.

One night and a day after Yusuf’s surgery, in the capital, at Ruth Wilcox’s Home. Yusuf appeared in the great hall of Ruth Wilcox’s villa.

That’s right, he was completely recovered. After a night and a day of excruciating pain on the rooftop, where he teetered between life and death, his bone injuries and gunshot wounds had miraculously healed, leaving only a slight red mark on his skin, which was also likely to disappear soon.

The reason he appeared at Ruth Wilcox’s villa was that the rooftop he had been on was not closest to his own home but to Ruth’s, so he had made his way here overnight.

He had no money on him, was dressed in hospital garb, and had no phone. So, taking advantage of the night, he quickly made it here.

Using telekinesis, he had scanned the villa beforehand; Ruth was not home, but Mia was there, the young girl playing video games upstairs by herself.

Now she was truly free, spending her days eating, drinking, and sticking around Ruth’s place. He was also curious, though, where had all that girl’s bodyguards gone?

Yusuf didn’t disturb her, realizing that the unsuspecting young girl was wearing headphones, so he found something to eat on the first floor by himself and then went to the room he had previously stayed in.

The room had been kept for him all along, and his travel bag and changes of clothes were still there.

Yusuf found a set of clothes to wear, then thought for a bit before heading to the sofa, where he picked up the cordless phone from the coffee machine.

The call was to Miles O’Brien; Yusuf knew they must be worried sick, so he called to assure them he was okay.

After three rings, Miles picked up the phone, puzzled, asking who it was.

"Louise, it’s me. I’m sorry, so sorry, for leaving earlier without saying goodbye. I just wasn’t in the mood at the time. It’s all good now, I’ll be home in the morning," he said.

"Yusuf... Wahhh..." Upon hearing Yusuf’s voice assuring her he was safe, Louise burst into tears.

"Don’t cry, don’t cry. I’ll be back tonight, a bit late though. I’m currently meeting an old friend. Inform the others for me, will you? Tell them not to worry!" he said.

"What about your leg, your arm, are you able to move around?" Louise asked anxiously.

"I can, no problem at all. You’ll see when I get back tonight. Have everyone come over to my place," Yusuf replied with a smile.

"Mmm, you... I’ll wait for you to come home," Miles O’Brien nodded repeatedly.

Yusuf Zuck then hung up the phone and decided to head upstairs as well.

Upstairs, there was the master bedroom and a second bedroom. Clearly, Mia and Ruth Wilcox were sleeping together in one room, and this girl had told Yusuf Zuck before that she wanted to be in a "relationship" with Little Ruth, though he wasn’t sure if Ruth had let her succeed.

Without knocking, Yusuf Zuck opened the door and walked in, standing behind her.

It seemed like she was playing some kind of cultivation game, part of a team. Her equipment must be the best, her level the highest, and she must be the leader of some guild, as her ID had the words ’Sect Leader’ on it.

Standing behind her, she didn’t notice Yusuf Zuck and continued to fight monsters while shouting into her headset, "Everyone protect me, cover me, slay the dragon, slay the dragon..."

Yusuf Zuck was baffled. This was a true, wealthy beauty playing the game, a big shot in the gaming world.

"Stop your nonsense, stop your nonsense. What is it to you guys if I don’t have a boyfriend? Can you afford to support me? Ugh, a single pair of my socks costs thousands, can you buy that? Quit babbling, your Sect Leader will distribute experience scrolls later!~~ And remember, we’re attacking the city tomorrow, everyone show up. Anyone who doesn’t log in, out they go. If we take down the city, I’ll have the deputy leader treat you all to a big meal. Pick any place in the capital!"

"Me? I won’t be going, my husband won’t allow it, he’s traditional like that, won’t let me meet online friends. What can I do when he’s the one supporting me, buying me several pairs of socks every day!"

"Pfft—" Yusuf Zuck couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Ah— Ah— Ah— Ah—" Suddenly hearing someone behind her, the girl screamed in fright, her cries amplified by the headset.

However, when she quickly turned around and saw Yusuf Zuck behind her, she immediately threw herself into his arms!

"Yah..." She was so happy, excitedly yah yah yah-ing non-stop.

"What are you doing, what are you doing, don’t let your husband see you later!" Yusuf Zuck raised his hands, this was Ruth Wilcox’s home, and he dared not play off-limits games with Mia!

"Hmph, the scaredy-cat is here, huh? I thought you had forgotten about me!" Mia immediately let go of him and didn’t care about the game anymore. She simply shut the computer off, indifferent to any potential equipment losses due to disconnection. If she lost her gear, she’d just buy more!

"Forget everyone else, but I dare not forget you, Mia. Thanks," Yusuf Zuck chuckled. His gratitude had many layers—he truly wouldn’t have felt at ease if she hadn’t come to the capital to be with Ruth Wilcox.

"Can I have a hug, then? Just one, I’ve missed you..." Mia’s eyes suddenly reddened, and tears began to well up. Yusuf Zuck liked Ruth Wilcox, and she liked Yusuf Zuck, but she never dared show it in front of anyone. She had to be cautious around Ruth, always praising Yusuf Zuck, helping her analyze their relationship. It was all so bitter, sour, and sad for her.

She could only be a bit bolder and seek a little comfort from Yusuf Zuck when they were alone.

Seeing her about to cry, Yusuf Zuck immediately held her, whispering comfortingly, "Don’t cry, don’t cry. Tomorrow afternoon, wait for me at the Jing-Meng highway interchange. I’m going to Mongolia tomorrow, come with me, let’s get away for a bit, okay?"

"Yay—" Hearing Yusuf Zuck’s words, Mia immediately leapt up, forgetting all her previous grievances!

Yusuf Zuck couldn’t help but smile wryly at her easygoing nature.

"Right, have you eaten? If not, let’s go out to eat, get changed, and let’s go!" Yusuf Zuck checked the time, noted it was just after nine, and decided to take her out for dinner.
