Demon Lord 3

I asked him what his future path would be, and he said that the only thing he wanted to do was to resonate with his daughter's original thoughts. This was the only thing he wanted to accomplish in his life, and he would have no regrets after completing it. I asked him if I needed his help, and he shook his head and said not for the time being, and would come to me when he really needed it. Actually, this matter is over. After all, we can't control him at all. He is so capable that we can't bring him down all at once. Instead, we will get ourselves into trouble. The task is completed and we can only leave. Lao Zhao wanted to stop doing it, but another task came. Lao Zhao didn't expect that the commission he would give this time was relatively high, and he wanted to take the order again. I took a look and it was not a big job, so I told Lao Zhao to try it, because Lao Zhao became famous because of this. Although I don't know who did it this time, Lao Zhao survived and experienced so many things. He is also a well-known figure in this industry. With this job, Lao Zhao can also make some money. We are embarrassed to ask him to cancel the order. After all, he can't support us for a lifetime, and we must leave. So during this period we still have to help Lao Zhao make more money. After all, we have known him for so long and have been bothering him. We don't feel uncomfortable living in Lao Zhao's house. Lao Zhao doesn't dislike us and lets us live well. This assignment actually started when a parent approached us, saying their child, who was attending boarding school, had gone missing. Curious, I asked if they had looked at the school. The parent nodded and said they had found the school. The school flatly denied the incident, claiming they had no knowledge and that the child hadn't been to school. However, the mother, after checking surveillance footage, discovered that the child had gone missing near the school. The school's denial seemed to suggest there might be some hidden agenda. I then asked the mother what her cause was. She said she simply wanted to find her child and had no other requests. I nodded and asked if she had any other leads. The mother explained that she had sent her child to that school out of vanity, and that it wasn't a good one at all. She had searched for a long time but couldn't find a suitable school for her child. The child's test scores were extremely low, and the school would cost a fortune to get in. The mother couldn't afford expensive private schools, so she ended up at a remote, less-than-perfect one, which cost a fortune—the entire family's savings from the past year. Before she could do anything, she couldn't contact the child again. Previously, it was because the school was very strict, and they thought that this way the child would learn something good. The child's character was not that good to begin with. They spent a lot of money, and then they thought that the school had confiscated their cell phones, so they never did anything about it. Later, it seemed that things were getting worse and worse. They didn't even send a message to the family on Saturdays and Sundays. The parents were a little anxious. They called the school but it didn't answer. When they went to look for the child, the school said that the child had not come at all. I asked the parent if they knew what the child was studying? The parent shook his head. I asked the parent what kind of job he planned to find after graduation. The parent shook his head again and said that he just wanted to let relatives and friends know that his child was going to school. I nodded. This was purely vanity and had nothing to do with going to school. I asked the parent if he knew what the school was like. The parent said he'd heard other parents say the school was okay, and that some students could get into good universities, but it all depended on the students. I also learned about this through other channels, but I didn't expect the school to be so frequently plagued by large-scale brawls. The police had been called multiple times, but the situation was being suppressed by higher-ups. Hearing this, I asked the parent if they'd heard anything about it before. The parent told me they honestly didn't care. At the time, they just wanted their child to have a good school. As for whether the school was good, it all depended on how their child fared. Even in bad places, there are good people, and even in good places, there are bad people. Parents didn't bother to worry about that at the time. Speaking of which, I felt a little frustrated. The story of a few individuals remaining untainted by the mud doesn't represent the entire population. When we met with the parent this time, we specifically arranged to meet at a nearby coffee shop. After all, it was better to meet in person. If we intervened without seeing the person, we'd likely end up in the same situation as last time.
