Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 289: Chapter 271: Pet Protection Organization?

”What information?”

”It says that Luo Shufan was kidnapped at the airport, and then after checking the traffic police’s surveillance, he disappeared around the military area.”

”Who told you this? Is it reliable?”

Reliable? Reliable? Reliable?

Xu Tianyi was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to say something, he thought of how the other brothers and sisters from the Xu Family treated him and frowned without speaking.

”Right now, the most important thing is where my brother is. Those old bastards probably haven’t done anything to him yet,” Luo Qianqian said.

Old bastards? Xu Tianyi’s mouth twitched. Since when had this kid started speaking so ruthlessly?

”I really want to know what it is that led those old bastards to go after my brother!” Luo Qianqian hated her own helplessness. If she knew a bit more, could she avoid being so passive like she was now?

”With a big family and a big business, the causes of jealousy are nothing more than a few things: first, power, second, money, and third, status. The Luo Family has all three,” Xu Tianyi began analyzing calmly. However, he was puzzled. Why did it seem like the Han Family shouldn’t have this kind of capability?

”Money talks. I’d actually prefer it if it was for money, losing wealth to avoid disaster.” Luo Qianqian spoke softly.

Currently, there was no news about Luo Shufan at all; not even a single clue or slip-up had surfaced. If there was even a shred of evidence, following the vine to get the melon, they would always be able to find something.

She quietly fiddled with her phone and then suddenly looked up at Xu Tianyi: ”Do you think hiring a detective would be useful?”

”Have you been watching too much Conan? Not every detective is connected to the police, and tracking down infidelity is already enough. We can’t find any clues ourselves; what use would they be if you hire them? It would be just wasting money for a ’sorry’ in return,” Xu Tianyi shook his head but then his eyes lit up, ”But maybe it could be a method. We can’t hire a detective, but that doesn’t mean we can’t hire someone else.”

”Hire who? The police? It would be good just for them to show up by the time we find my brother.” Luo Qianqian turned her head, her eyes filled with urgency. How could things have turned out like this? She hadn’t even started high school yet, and her brother who was going to college had disappeared. What would happen if her mom found out?

”We can look for professionals.” Xu Tianyi’s mouth curled up, switching on the computer in the living room that had been idle for who knows how long: ”People who will do anything for money.” But then he awkwardly looked at Luo Qianqian, ”Do you have enough money on hand?”

Luo Qianqian was taken aback, took out her bank card and cash, and thought for a while with her head down: ”It should be enough, and if it’s not, I’ll borrow from someone.”

”That’s good then,” Xu Tianyi nodded, reliant on the hospitality of others. Although he didn’t have to worry about food and drink, coming up with a large sum of money was still very difficult for him.

Xu Tianyi opened the website he had come across by chance and registered an account.

Shui: Help find someone, the price will satisfy you, no clues whatsoever.

Bo Mei: What price range?

Shui: As long as the person is found safe and sound, at least a C-level task price.

”What is a C-level task price?” Luo Qianqian asked softly next to Xu Tianyi.

”They have seven price levels here, from F to A for regular tasks. S level is hundreds to thousands of times the price of A level. A single S-level task can sustain the entire organization for three years without taking orders. But S-level tasks also result in a large number of casualties. The lowest price is ten thousand US dollars. C-level is 300,000 US dollars.”

”Damn, where do I get that kind of money????” Luo Qianqian exploded, then asked after a moment, ”Is it guaranteed to find him?”

”Guaranteed.”

”Dammit, for my brother! I need to find a husband who makes money later, otherwise, with the way I spend, even if my brother says I can be a freeloader, he’d still kick me out of the house!” Luo Qianqian cursed under her breath and then took out her phone to call Luo Yanran, the wealthiest of her brothers.

Xu Tianyi pursed his lips, thinking that wanting a husband who made money wasn’t too much to ask for.

”What?” Luo Qianqian suddenly screamed, startling Xu Tianyi, who rushed over to see what was happening, only to find someone looking dumbfounded with the phone in hand.

”What’s wrong?” Luo Qianqian looked at the phone, unable to speak.

Xu Tianyi saw the phone still in call, took it, and asked, ”What’s wrong?”

Luo Yanran was relieved to hear a voice but became alert again when he heard a male’s voice: ”Who are you?”

”Xu Tianyi.”

”Oh, she just asked me to lend her some money, and I asked her why she needed to borrow money when she has so much. She claimed she had no money, so I reminded her that my dad gives her dividends every year, and asked if she had never checked her bankbook. She yelled out loud, but then completely ignored me no matter how much I called her.” Relieved that everything was fine, Luo Yanran asked, ”What does she need the money for?”

”It’s nothing.” Xu Tianyi hung up directly.

Staring at the receiver emitting a ”dudu dudu” tone, Luo Yanran was momentarily speechless with frustration.

”I have money now, hurry, hurry, hurry, let them find my brother!” Luo Qianqian snapped to attention and dragged Xu Tianyi to the computer.

Bo Mei: Who is it?

Bo Mei: Do you know who might have done it?

Bo Mei: Where is the person?

Bo Mei: Can you provide a photo?

Teddy: Let Second Brother hack them and look up the address.

Xu Tianyi was stunned for a moment, then quickly typed a response.

Shui: It’s a university student, Luo Shufan from the third generation of the Luo Family in Capital City of Huaxia Country.

Bo Mei: A university student can go missing? Kidnapped or trafficked?

Ke Ji: The Luo Xiying household?

Shui: ...Yes.

Having watched for a while, Luo Qianqian couldn’t help herself. She grabbed the keyboard from the armrest of the computer chair and typed a message.

Shui: Are you guys dog lovers?

Chinese Rural Dog: I’m on it.

Ke Ji: It’s mine!!!

Chinese Rural Dog: Your legs are too short.

Shui: How do we get in touch specifically?

Chinese Rural Dog: Send your phone number, and I’ll contact you when I’m there.

”So, what exactly is this protection association?” Luo Qianqian asked, watching Xu Tianyi send the phone number, a puzzled look on her face: ”Does it include all kinds of dogs?”

”This is what my uncle suggested. He said to find them if there’s ever a problem, and that as long as you have money, they can do anything,” Xu Tianyi explained, somewhat taken aback.

”Assassin organization? Mercenary organization? Or...?”

”Pet Lover’s Organization...”

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Earth.

”The third has gotten into trouble, and his whole family is in trouble, what do we do?”

”Have you found the owner of that phone number yet?”

”The computer IP address is registered to an apartment owned by the Luo Family, with the household head being the person we’re looking for and his sister. Monitoring and elevator surveillance around the building show that the ones who entered are indeed a little girl and a young man who seem very familiar and wearing strange clothes.” The speaker pulled up the surveillance footage, which showed Luo Qianqian and Xu Tianyi in their odd attire: ”Flight information reveals that the young man is Xu Tianyi, and he flew here with this little girl. The footage from their return home the day before looked like this.” As he said that, he brought up the footage of them coming back to the complex with Chu Ci the previous day, pointing to the shadowy part of the screen: ”There was surveillance.”

”Haven’t been to Huaxia in a long time, how about we take a trip?” asked a quiet young man sitting in the principal seat.
