Suddenly, Gu Qingqing vaguely remembered.

The teacher said that she went to Saint Yor City to take care of a personal matter, but unexpectedly encountered her, who had spatial abilities, so she took her as a student and brought her back.

That time, it seems to be around this period shown on the screen?

44. My younger sister is missing.

In the light screen

Gu Ran and his sister had a happy birthday together, but Gu Ran noticed that his sister seemed to be thinking about something when she was playing with the knife he had given her.

When he asked, his sister looked a little nervous.

After saying "It's nothing" a few times, he hurriedly ran back to his room.

This left Gu Ran somewhat puzzled.

He was very worried about his sister's condition, so he chased after her and knocked on the door to ask.

"Are you hiding something from me? Little sister, Qingqing, Gu—Qingqing!"

"No," the younger sister said innocently as she opened the door to her room.

Gu Ran suspiciously tried to go into her sister's room to check on the situation, but her sister pushed her out.

"Oh dear, brother, the teacher said I'm all grown up now, so you can't just go into a girl's room anymore."

"You're such a little devil. Fine, fine, I won't go in then. But if anything happens, you have to tell me, okay? Especially if anyone bullies you, don't keep it to yourself. Your big brother will stand up for you."

Gu Ran stroked his sister's head as he spoke, glancing inside and seeing only a smashed piggy bank.

It seems there's really nothing wrong with it.

"Okay, okay, I know, it's annoying, brother."

......

The next day, while borrowing materials at the St. John's Library, Gu Ran felt vaguely uneasy.

After confirming with her sister several times that she was alright, Gu Ran finally felt relieved.

"It's noon, time to pick up my sister for lunch," Gu Ran thought to himself as he checked the time.

Walking to a secluded corner outside the library, Gu Ran opened a portal and appeared near his sister's school.

"What's going on? Why is it so chaotic?"

As soon as Gu Ran stepped out of the portal, she saw a group of people who seemed to be parents pacing anxiously ahead.

After making some inquiries, Gu Ran frowned: "What? Many students have gone missing, and most of them are students who have awakened supernatural abilities."

Superpowers awaken during childhood and adolescence. Some who awaken early, even those from ordinary poor families, can enter superpower schools based on their superpower talents and learn how to develop their abilities.

However, schools for superpowered individuals are also divided into different levels. For example, the superpowered school that Gu Ran sent his younger sister to was the best school in the entire city of Saint Yor. If the children there who awakened superpowered talents came from poor families, they must be very promising and rare superpowered individuals.

While this school for children with special abilities does have many children who have awakened their abilities at a young age, the value of those abilities is far less.

However, the advantage is that the students are relatively simple and do not have the complicated thoughts that the students at the previous school had.

These families all appear to be ordinary, hoping their children will become successful and achieve great things after becoming gifted individuals.

But unexpectedly, their son and daughter disappeared without a trace at school.

"It seems to be targeting children with special abilities." Gu Ran planned to investigate after taking his sister back, since it was hard to feel at ease for something like this to happen at his sister's school.

To Gu Ran's surprise, the small communicator he had given to his sister was no longer working, and in an instant, Gu Ran's heart tightened.

No way?

Isn't it only for children with special abilities?

My sister is just an ordinary child without any special abilities.

Gu Ran comforted himself and then tried to call his sister's small communicator again.

The call still couldn't be connected.

Gu Ran's expression turned serious, and he couldn't help but think the worst.

He headed to his sister's class at school, which was now packed with parents.

"Where is my son? I entrusted my son to your school, how could he suddenly disappear?"

"Tell me, did you hide my daughter?"

The person in the classroom was the school principal, a middle-aged man wearing glasses. Gu Ran knew that he was a B-level ability user.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't be rendered speechless by these ordinary parents, but now his forehead is covered in fine sweat, and it seems that he is indeed flustered.

He hurriedly explained, "Parents, please listen to me. The school is also very shocked by this matter, and we are conducting a preliminary investigation."

"However, the school has already reported this to the Duville family. Everyone knows the Duville family. As long as the Duville family gets involved, this matter can definitely be resolved properly. Don't you all trust the Duville family?"

Several top families in St. Joel City have their own core areas, and only in these core areas have they built schools for people with special abilities, in order to recruit talents from a young age.

The Diana District is now the core area of ​​the Duville family. Generally speaking, the Duville family has the final say on everything that happens in the Diana District.

Upon hearing the name of the Duville family, the parents immediately fell silent, and their emotions gradually calmed down.

People are proud of the Deauville family, who will become the ruling family next year, and still have faith in their authority.

Gu Ran grabbed the principal's collar: "Where's my sister, Gu Qingqing? Is she on the missing persons list too?"

"I...I don't know." The principal knew he had met Gu Ran and knew that he was related to the Duville family, so he didn't dare to resist and said with a bitter face, "There is a list of missing students that has been temporarily compiled over the years. You can go and take a look first."

Gu Ran put the principal down and picked up the list the principal was pointing to.

Let's look at it from top to bottom.

"A total of 127 students have gone missing. Of these, 126 are people with superpowers, and only one is an ordinary student without superpowers..." Gu Ran felt a bad premonition as soon as he saw this.

He quickly looked down the list, and when he saw the last name on the list, "Gu Qingqing," he almost felt his vision go black.

Sure enough, his worst fears came true.

"What exactly happened?! Tell me everything honestly! Otherwise, no one can save you!" Gu Ran glared at the principal with murderous intent.

Gu Ran's appearance startled everyone; she looked terrifying, like a ferocious beast ready to devour its prey.

"I...I'll talk." When Gu Ran looked at him, the principal felt a great sense of crisis, which made him shudder. "The last class is an outdoor activity class. Because people with superpowers need to practice their abilities and need a larger space, students with superpowers and those without are separated on opposite sides."

"Then we discovered that the area where the students with superpowers were located was completely empty. We immediately counted all the students and found that only one ordinary student without superpowers had also disappeared, which was... your younger sister."

45. The Lazarus family

"I remember your school should have installed surveillance cameras, so where are the surveillance videos?"

Judging from the principal's words, it doesn't seem like it was specifically aimed at his sister, but we still need to investigate further.

"The surveillance equipment broke down yesterday for some reason. We were supposed to call someone to fix it today, but we didn't expect this to happen," the principal said, sweating profusely.

"What? What a coincidence? Do you think I'm stupid?" Gu Ran hadn't suspected the principal before, but after hearing the principal's words, he couldn't help but re-evaluate him.

The principal himself is not weak either; his strength as a B-level ability user would be enough to make him a division-level commander in the legion.

But he didn't notice any signs of hundreds of students from his school going missing. Is that really possible?

"I asked Teacher Zhang Yinghuo to fix it. It should have been fixed yesterday, but I don't know why, after this happened today, I found out that the monitoring device was not fixed at all," the principal explained.

Gu Ran asked, "Have you been at school all day?"

The principal shook his head: "No, I had an exchange meeting with another school today, and I went there at their invitation. When I heard about what happened at the school, I rushed back."

"How long ago was this invitation?"

"They notified us a long time ago, about a week ago."

Although Gu Ran's tone was very impolite, the principal dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction.

The principal's answer somewhat dispelled Gu Ran's doubts, and he continued to press for answers:

"Where is Teacher Zhang Yinghuo? Where is he?"

The principal was also puzzled: "I've already sent someone to call him over. It's strange, why hasn't he returned yet at this hour?"

At this moment, a male teacher ran over and said loudly, "Principal, it seems that Teacher Zhang Yinghuo has run away. I heard from others that he just went home, so I went to his house to look for him, but his house was empty."

"Where does he live? Give me his address right now!" Gu Ran glared fiercely at the male teacher.

"Now, immediately! If you don't want to die!" A tiny spatial rift appeared in front of the male teacher, only a few centimeters away from his head.

The male teacher was startled and quickly said, "He lives at 59 Gillette Street!"

Gu Ran opened the portal and teleported away in full view of everyone.

He is now almost certain that this was a premeditated kidnapping.

I just don't know what they want to do with so many children with superpowers...

Moreover, the fact that the other party dared to make a move in the core area of ​​the Duville family suggests that they may not be afraid of the Duville family.

Gu Ran's heart felt as if it were shrouded in dark clouds.

Gu Ran stepped out of the portal, looked at the unfamiliar apartment building in front of her, and after confirming that she hadn't teleported to the wrong location, she approached the wall and teleported inside.
