Chapter 755: Chapter 743: John Accidentally Seeks Zhan Qipei’s Help
Coincidence?
Could it really be that coincidental?
Knows a little about everything?
It should be "a lot" instead!
George suddenly felt that his master must be a real Versailles.
If not a typical Versailles, she absolutely couldn’t have made such a bland statement!
Qiao Jing was unaware of George’s thoughts at the moment, she operated her phone for a bit and found that all functions were normal.
However, there was no signal on the island at all.
Neither calls could be made, nor messages sent.
She frowned slightly, her eyes sweeping over the pile of communication equipment that had been idle for a long time and seemed to be scrapped.
George, still unclear about the situation, asked eagerly, "Master, since the mobile phone is fixed, does that mean we can ask for help from the outside world?"
"I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you," Qiao Jing pressed her vermilion lips together, "There’s no signal here, we can’t contact anyone outside the island."
As soon as these words came out, the excitement on George’s face vanished at a visible speed, disappearing instantly.
He had thought that once the phone was repaired, they’d be able to leave this deserted island.
Turned out, it was all false excitement...
Seeing George’s spirits sink, Qiao Jing could only comfort him, "Don’t be too sad, there is still a way."
George sighed, "What other way could there be?"
Although he knew his master was very capable and there was hardly anything that could stump her,
in such a barren place, he really couldn’t think of any solution.
"Look," Qiao Jing pointed at the communication equipment nearby, "Do you see that pile of stuff?"
George turned his head to look, but no matter how he looked, he couldn’t see anything useful about those things.
He turned his gaze back, looking at Qiao Jing with a confused face, "Are those things useful? They seem like they’re all broken, right?"
"Fix them up a bit, and they should be able to be used in a pinch."
Qiao Jing walked over and crouched down to inspect, explaining, "If I’m not mistaken, one of these devices can release a signal."
On hearing this, George’s spirit was somewhat revived.
He moved closer, crouching down to look, "Master, these things are so worn out, can they really be fixed?"
Qiao Jing pressed her lips together, then said, "Repairs are definitely possible, but it will take some time."
These things were different from the phone.
The phone only had water damage, while some of these devices were even missing parts, making the repairs undoubtedly more difficult.
Qiao Jing roughly sorted the items and was about to start repairing them.
Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, George hurriedly persuaded, "Master, you should rest for a while. You didn’t sleep all night, and a lack of sleep can affect the development of the baby in your belly."
She hadn’t felt it until he mentioned it, but once he did, Qiao Jing really did feel somewhat sleepy.
She sat down against the wall, found a comfortable position, and said to George, "You rest for a bit too."
After speaking, she closed her eyes.
George sat down not far from her and also began to close his eyes to rest.
...
Meanwhile, in a private villa in M country.
Zhan Qipei sat on the sofa, his subordinates standing in front of him with their heads lowered, eyes on their noses, noses on their hearts, not daring to even breathe heavily.
At this moment, Zhan Qipei’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed like mist-enveloped mountains, his face as cold as a chilling wind, and his thin lips clamped into a straight, arcless line of ice.
Even at a distance, such a demeanor made one shudder.
He looked up, his sharp gaze sweeping over the group before him, and spoke coldly, "How many days has it been? Not a single clue about Q? Is this your efficiency? What use do I have for you!"
It had been a whole week since he received the location sent by Qiao Jing.
He had dispatched a large number of people, nearly all the subordinates he could mobilize in country M, yet they had still not found Qiao Jing.
He did not even know what she was going through now or if she was in any danger...
His subordinates were quivering with fear, utterly intimidated by Zhan Qipei’s presence.
The one at the front mustered his courage and said, "Boss, please give us a little more time; we will definitely find Q’s whereabouts as soon as possible."
"What are you waiting for? Go search now!"
Zhan Qipei reprimanded them sharply, his expression growing even more somber.
"Yes."
After respectfully responding, the subordinates quickly turned and left.
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the entrance hall; it had a sarcastic tone as usual.
"Zhan Qipei, you are incompetent yourself, so why take it out on your subordinates? I didn’t expect the big boss of the Zone organization to behave like this!"
Zhan Qipei glanced at the uninvited Wu Xirui and replied coldly, "You should worry about yourself. You, the boss of the La organization, aren’t any better."
"Ha." Wu Xirui chuckled sarcastically, his tone full of mockery, "Zhan Qipei, you really hid it well."
Had it not been for Qiao Jing’s incident, which forced Zhan Qipei to use the power of the Zone organization, he would never have guessed that the mysterious Boss of Zone organization, who was seldom seen, was Zhan Qipei!
Of course, at the same time, he discovered Zhan Qipei’s identity, his status as the boss of the La organization was also known by Zhan Qipei.
Zhan Qipei was quite surprised when he learned about this.
Both the Zone and La organizations were among the top seven organizations in country M.
And Zhan Qipei’s Zone organization was the foremost among the seven organizations.
His mind on Qiao Jing, Zhan Qipei was too troubled to bother with Wu Xirui’s idle chatter, merely responding indifferently, "The same goes for you."
Wu Xirui shook his head and clucked his tongue before taunting, "The outside world says the boss of Zone organization is extraordinarily capable, but it seems rumors can’t always be trusted."
"For so long now, unable to find a single person, Zhan Qipei, you’re nothing but a boss in name only!"
Zhan Qipei snorted coldly, and retorted word by word, "You are no different."
Meanwhile, these two were in fierce confrontation.
Elsewhere, unable to find Qiao Jing, Mr. John was livid, venting his anger on his subordinates.
"A bunch of good-for-nothing fakers, I asked you to guard the port and you dare to shirk your duties, drinking with George while on shift, falling for that kid’s tricks. Were it not for your stupidity, could Professor Qiao have escaped?"
"And you, tasked with finding someone, all you do is whine to me about how hard it is because the ’area is too vast’?"
"If it’s hard to find, comb through the islands one by one for me, turn over every nearby island – I refuse to believe we can’t find that person!"
The subordinates were scolded till they bled, heads drooping, silent as the grave.
Frank thought it over and finally spoke up, "Mr. John, endlessly searching aimlessly like this isn’t the way, it’s both a waste of manpower and unlikely to yield any results."
"What else can be done? Do you have a better suggestion?"
John’s face was dark and gloomy, extremely unsightly.
He knew that this method of searching was actually the most foolish one, but what else could be done now?
