Gu Xiaoxi called Jing Rui’s cell phone, but no one answered.
The other teammates’ phones were also unanswered.
Gu Xiaoxi didn’t know what to do for a moment?
All she could do was call Quan Shaoqing for help.
After receiving the call, Quan Shaoqing immediately appeared by Gu Xiaoxi’s side and took her into Yun Xiao’s room.
But, the room was empty.
Not only was Yun Xiao’s room empty, the other teammates’ rooms were all vacant.
"Who took them away?" Quan Shaoqing asked with a solemn expression. Human hearts are unfathomable, especially in the cutthroat World Alliance.
"The waiters!" Gu Xiaoxi remembered that they were all drunk, and she had asked the staff to help them back to their rooms to rest.
Quan Shaoqing frowned deeply, "This can’t go on. They must have been taken away. Did you cross paths with anyone before this?"
"Logically, Huo Jin was drunk too and was taken away. It couldn’t be him." Gu Xiaoxi took a deep breath, feeling an unbearable blockage in her chest.
Here, everyone wanted to step on them. Simply because they had made a splash this time.
If someone wanted to exploit this situation, the consequences were unthinkable.
"We have to find a way to locate Yun Xiao and the others." Quan Shaoqing held Gu Xiaoxi’s hand and instructed, "Stay here, I’ll go look around."
"Hold on, it’s not easy for someone of your status to appear here. It could cause trouble for our country! I have a way to find them." Saying this, Gu Xiaoxi led Quan Shaoqing back to her own room and turned on the computer.
Soon, she hacked into the surveillance video footage of the International Alliance’s banquet hall corridor.
Starting from the route by which Yun Xiao and the others had left, she began searching for them.
Quickly, Gu Xiaoxi tracked down a piece of information.
Those waiters had taken Yun Xiao and the others downstairs and directly put them into several luxury cars.
The cars were actually headed outside the security perimeter.
Inside the security line, there was surveillance; outside the security line.
Gu Xiaoxi immediately lost the trail.
She quickly opened the World Alliance’s map and reviewed it before analyzing several locations.
The most likely destination was the Entertainment Building outside the security line.
The people there were of all sorts and it was a high-class red-light district that the International Alliance did not manage.
How daring they were to drug their drinks! They must have prepared thoroughly to deliver a fatal blow.
If her teammates, intoxicated, behaved improperly and were photographed and exposed...
Once the news broke, not only would they lose face, but even their country would be shamed.
Not only would her teammates’ reputations be tarnished, but they would also have to endure people’s ridicule and mockery.
"Let’s go there!" Gu Xiaoxi seized hold of Quan Shaoqing’s wrist.
Quan Shaoqing promptly took her away, and afterward, they stood below the Entertainment Building, frowning at the seventy-odd-story building.
"There are so many rooms here, if we search one by one, how long will it take us?" Quan Shaoqing voiced his concern.
"To the surveillance room of the building. They’ve taken the people so far, it would’ve taken time on the road. If I’m not wrong, they shouldn’t have been harmed yet! We need to be quick," Gu Xiaoxi said with a chilling gaze.
Quan Shaoqing looked at her cold cheeks, patted her head from behind, and then led her to find the surveillance room.
It indeed wasn’t easy bringing her team here.
The International Alliance is a hub of status, power, and interests.
Here, they’ve gained a lot, but also lost a lot. They must always be vigilant against being trapped.
With nations harboring grudges against each other, naturally, they would try everything to rise and suppress others.
In the surveillance room, Quan Shaoqing knocked out the staff at once. Gu Xiaoxi immediately reviewed all the surveillance footage and soon found Yun Xiao’s figure.
At the moment, Yun Xiao was being carried by a burly man into a hotel room.
As for Jing Haoran and the others, they were surrounded by a flock of gaudily dressed, voluptuous women in a very large room. They were being forced to drink, their clothes were being removed...
The scene was simply indecent to behold.
Without a second thought, Gu Xiaoxi said to Quan Shaoqing, "I’ll go save Yun Xiao. You save Jing Haoran!"
Quan Shaoqing first brought her to the door of the room where Yun Xiao was, "Be careful!"
Although the two of them had not communicated much, there was a certain understanding between them.
Without any hesitation, Gu Xiaoxi kicked open the hotel room door and walked in.
The man inside was in the process of undressing Yun Xiao.
Startled by the sudden flying door, he instinctively clenched his fists to defend against danger. Yet, unexpectedly, he was still kicked back several steps by Gu Xiaoxi’s swift foot.
"Who are you?" The man clenched his fists, and his muscles immediately bulged explosively.
Gu Xiaoxi quickly rushed to Yun Xiao’s side and found that she had already fainted from intoxication. Her face was red and swollen due to the drugs.
Gu Xiaoxi quickly channeled Spiritual Energy into her body.
On the other side, seeing that Gu Xiaoxi wasn’t speaking,
he picked up a wooden stool and charged at Gu Xiaoxi.
As Gu Xiaoxi was performing feats of strength on Yun Xiao to drive out the drugs and alcohol, she waved her hand, gathered Inner Strength in her palm, and sent the attacking man flying away.
Soon, Yun Xiao regained consciousness and gradually woke up.
Only then did Gu Xiaoxi relax, standing up from the hotel’s big bed and looking at the brawny man who had fallen to the ground.
"Who instructed you to do this?" Gu Xiaoxi walked up expressionlessly.
The brawny man, clutching his injured arm, glared at Gu Xiaoxi and said, "I don’t know. Someone gave me money and sent me a beauty. Naturally, I wouldn’t refuse."
"Not talking?" Gu Xiaoxi’s figure strode forward, kicking the man’s knee.
He immediately knelt on the ground, without even a chance to retaliate.
By then, Gu Xiaoxi had already moved behind him, her gun pressing against the man’s head. "I’ll give you three seconds to think!"
She spoke very fast, which also secretly terrified the man.
Gu Xiaoxi might not look tall or strong, but he had absolutely no power to fight back against her.
This disparity between the weak and the strong left him no need to think before he blurted out, "Mr. Henry."
"Henry?" Gu Xiaoxi carefully recalled, feeling she hadn’t offended any Mr. Henry. Moreover, she hadn’t even heard the name before.
This person definitely wasn’t at tonight’s banquet.
As Yun Xiao slowly woke up and saw herself lying in a strange bed with her dress zipper undone and clothes scattered about, she was terrified.
Had it not been for seeing Gu Xiaoxi nearby, she might have been scared to death.
"Xiao Xi, what happened to me?" Yun Xiao quickly redressed, and even though she knew what had happened, she found it hard to believe.
"It’s okay now!" Gu Xiaoxi turned and gave her a reassuring look, then knocked out the man in front of her with a punch.
Gu Xiaoxi gestured to the dressed Yun Xiao, "Let’s go!"
Yun Xiao glanced around the unfamiliar room, following Gu Xiaoxi and quickly leaving. It was only at that moment that she realized she had narrowly escaped death.
Gu Xiaoxi led Yun Xiao to the room where Jing Haoran and the others were.
By that time, Quan Shaoqing had already dealt with everyone inside.
After Gu Xiaoxi arrived, she expelled the alcohol and drugs from everyone’s bodies with her Inner Strength.
Then, she deleted the hotel surveillance videos where she and Quan Shaoqing appeared and swiftly led everyone to leave.
It wasn’t until everyone returned to their own homes that the night felt like a dream.
They had survived a perilous night.
It just showed that the more powerful the place, the more terrifying the conspiracies and entanglements.
And tonight, the only ones who were framed were Gu Xiaoxi, Yun Xiao, Jing Haoran, Che Junqing, and Tang Yisheng.
The other five were not on the list of those being framed.
It seemed that someone was targeting Liuli Country.
They wanted to expel them from the International Alliance.
In Jing Haoran’s room, Quan Shaoqing sent the three men back home.
"Shaoqing, when you saved me... I wasn’t messed with by any woman, was I? I’m still a virgin!" Jing Haoran now felt like dying, clutching Quan Shaoqing’s sleeve, almost crying from nervousness.
Quan Shaoqing glanced at him indifferently and said, "Anyway, your clothes were stripped off. As for whether you were deflowered, you’ll have to ask your brother."
"Awoo!" Jing Haoran now truly felt like dying. His two decades of purity ruined in one night.
At the very least, his first time should have been with a girl he loved!
Quan Shaoqing couldn’t be bothered with him and then turned to Che Junqing and Tang Yisheng.
Although the two didn’t speak, it was clear they were wrestling with the same issue as Jing Haoran.
"In the future, you must be more careful. Not only should you follow the captain’s instructions, but you must also think and analyze on your own. Don’t be framed by others again!"
"Got it!" Jing Haoran clenched his fists, his eyes immediately turning blood-red. "Who exactly did this?"
"It’s not clear yet! We still need to investigate!" Quan Shaoqing comforted, "Fortunately, you were rescued in time tonight. It’s late; everyone should rest now. We’ll discuss this further tomorrow!"
With that, Quan Shaoqing left Jing Haoran’s room and went to Gu Xiaoxi’s room.
