Chapter 135 Shocking the Entire District
Soon, people from the Martial Patrol Brigade, the Intermediate Criminal Apprehenders, and the district office arrived. Amongst them were also people Jose called.
Even the districtâs governor came to supervise the operation. He demanded that they find Mia, even if it meant turning the urban village upside down.
At a house not far from the hotdog stall, the old woman looked out through the slightly ajar door with panicking eyes. She closed the door and returned inside.
Inside the house sat two men in their thirties. They were the old womanâs sons, and both had large faces and burly figures.
The old woman informed them, âA lot of people gathered outside. They must be here for the two girls. It seems like they arenât ordinary people.â
A man wearing a shortâsleeved shirt snorted. âMom, you were known as Lady Poison. When have you become so timid? The higherâups keep asking us for more women. If we canât provide them with high- quality goods, the hall master will definitely punish us heavily.â
The other man with a bare torso said, âMom, heâs right. Weâve hidden them in the cellar, so those people wonât be able to find them.â
But the old woman shook her head. âItâs better to be safe than sorry. My gut tells me all this going on outside is too out of the ordinary. You two better be careful not to draw attention to yourselves. Once this is done, weâll move to another place.â
Not far from them, Bradley was checking nearby storesâ surveillance footage. Unfortunately, the hotdog stall was in a blind spot, so they couldnât find anything useful.
By now, Bradley was very
xious because standing behind him were several bigshotsâDistrict Mayor Quincy Frostbite, Deputy Mayor Rhett Johnson, and several other bigshots.
Though Quincy seemed eager about this matter, he was feeling the opposite. That was because he had received news that his superior, Cooper, would be transferred out of Gentrel City. Once he was gone, Quincy wouldnât have to please anyone.
Meanwhile, Rhett had a different idea. That was because he received news that Cooper would be transferred to the city council. Only a few people knew about that, so he kept quiet.
In his perception, Cooper had a bright future, so he gave it his all when receiving orders from Cooper.
At that moment, Quincyâs phone began to ring. He glanced at it and subconsciously stood upright. Even before answering the call, he was already beaming. He then respectfully greeted the person on the line, âMr. Bishop. Yes, yes. I understand, I will do my best to find Mia Barrett as soon as possible..â
Once the call ended, a trace of shock appeared on Quincyâs face. How did this matter alarm the deputy governor! He even asked his head secretary to call me. Who is that missing young woman?
While he was still in shock, his phone rang again. This time, it was a number from Justford, so he hurriedly answered.

Quincy could feel the other personâs aura and replied, âYes, this is he. You are?â
âIâm Darcy Huber from the Public Security Department.
Quincy was so terrified that his heart trembled as he stammered, âCâChief Huber, is there anything I can help you with?â
Darcy ordered, âA young woman in your town has gone missing. Her name is Mia Barrett. You must find her as quickly and safely as possible. Iâve already ordered a team of the cityâs criminalists to Halivaara, so prepare for their arrival. Also, Special Forces are also on their way, so send someone to meet up with them and head over to the location of the incident.â
By now, Quincyâs eyes were wide open. âYes, yes. I will do as told!â
After ending the call, Quincy screamed at Bradley, âHave you found any clues?â
Bradley had looked through all the surveillance footage but couldnât find anything. He wiped the sweat on his forehead and reported, âMayor Frostbite, I havenât found anything.â
Furious, Quincy boomed, âUseless piece of sh*t! Iâll give you another hour. Youâd better find some clues, or youâre fired!â
Then, Rhett cleared his throat. âAlso, if you manage to find clues before that, Iâll promote you to vice- captain of the criminal investigations team.â
Bradleyâs eyes immediately lit up. Since he had been an inspector for many years, he analyzed the situation according to his experience. âEvery exit near the place Mia disappeared has surveillance cameras, and we still havenât found any trace of her until this moment. Also, cars canât get in here, so the kidnappers cannot avoid the cameras if they plan to bring those young women away. In other words, Mia is still here.
Once he finished, he used his pen to circle an area that was not larger than 10,000 square meters on the
map.
Quincy bellowed, âGet someone to search each house and bring the police dogs with them. Make sure not to miss out on any clues!â
In the meantime, William was still on his way to Halivaara. He drove the car at a super fast speed, almost two hundred kilometers per hour. On the way, he had already mobilized all the resources he had.
Gwendolyn assured him, âWilliam, you donât have to be so worried. Iâm sure Mia will be fine, and the place. is in lockdown.â
âWhat if she gets hurt? What if sheâs being bullied?â A fierce light shone inside Williamâs eyes as he threatened, âNo matter who did it if I get my hands on them, Iâll make their lives a living hell!â
The car moved like a lightning bolt on the road. Since William had extraordinarily keen eyesight and strong predicting abilities, he kept/overtaking cars, condensing the twoâhour trip into one hour.
By 5.00PM, he and Gwendolyn arrived at the scene.
Jose was waiting for him at the entrance. When he saw William, he immediately knelt to the ground and apologized, âBoss! Itâs my fault. I failed to protect Miss Barrett!â

Jose quickly rose to his feet, still looking guilty.

William assured him, âI donât blame you, so donât think too much about it. Howâs the progress at the scene? Have they found any clues?â
âTheyâre still searching, but one thingâs for sureâMiss Barrett is close by, but we just donât know where they hid her,â Jose informed.
With Jose in front, he led William to the temporary command center, which was a spacious house.
Bradley was looking at the surveillance footage when he heard Williamâs voice from behind. âDid you find. anything?â
The voice caused Bradley to tremble in shock. When turning around, he saw a coldâfaced William and replied, âWilliam, we havenât found Mia yet, but Iâm sure sheâs close by. The culprits might have hidden her somewhere, so weâve already dispatched police dogs to help with the search.â
Then, Quincy reached out his hand and smiled. âYou must be Mr. Barrett. Iâm Quincy Frostbite, the district mayor of Halivaara.â
Instead of shaking Quincyâs hand, William nodded. Quincy withdrew his hand awkwardly but was even sure that William was a big shot, or else how could he mobilize the city council and Public Security Department?â
Quincy added, âMr. Barrett, donât worry. Our men are doing all they can, so we will definitely find your younger sister.â
However, William still didnât respond to him. He stared at the map before Bradley and asked, âIs Mia somewhere in this vicinity?â
Bradley nodded. âThatâs right. Sheâs somewhere here. After checking all the surveillance footage, Iâm sure Mia hasnât left this area.
Nodding, William suddenly went outside and leaped into the sky before landing on top of a house that was five to six meters high. Then, he gathered his Qi and boomed, âWho took my younger sister? Iâll give you until the count of three to appear before me!â
His voice was loud as roaring thunder and lasted for a long time. It was so loud that the residents all wondered what kind of loudspeaker it was and how it could sound so loud.
Back inside the house, Bradley and the others paled, wondering how a person could speak so loudly.
Meanwhile, Joseâs heart raced as he muttered, âBoss is now a Divine Realm Master!â
