The True Thousand Gold Possessions of the Myriad Realms Trading System

"How could this happen?" Situ Kongbo was extremely anxious. "Have you really contacted everyone? Could you have dialed the wrong number?"

Director Zhou said, "It's impossible for it to be wrong. All the companies provided the same number."

After hearing this, Situ Kongbo didn't have time to say anything more. He immediately hung up the phone, found Ruan Mianmian's number in the blacklist, and dialed it.

The automated voice replied that the number he had contacted was outside the service area and could not be reached.

Undeterred, Situ Kongbo tried twice more, only to get the same result. So he logged into various apps, found Ruan Mianmian on his blacklist, and added her back.

I added it, but there was absolutely no response.

Could it be that she and the students from Blue Star East University encountered an interstellar wanderer?

Situ Kongbo disregarded everything else and rushed out immediately.

When Nangong Jianyue came out of the bathroom, she was startled to see Situ Kongbo rushing out anxiously. She quickly grabbed him and asked, "Kongbo, what happened?"

"I have something urgent to attend to, I need to go take care of it first." Situ Kongbo shoved Nangong Jianyue aside and rushed out quickly.

He rushed to the indoor parking lot, immediately released his flying car, got in, and flew away in an instant.

As they drove their flying car to the spaceport, Situ Kongbo frantically tried to list people they both knew in his mind, but his mind was a complete mess and he couldn't think of anyone for a long time. It wasn't until they arrived at the spaceport that he remembered Pang You, who had introduced him to Ruan Mianmian, and General Wang, whom he had met on the mining planet.

So they immediately contacted Pang You and asked him to go to the mall to see if Ruan Mianmian was there. Then they contacted Lieutenant General Wang.

Pang You made contact, but Lieutenant General Wang replied that he was on duty and would get back to him later.

When Pang You received the call, he didn't dare offend Situ Kongbo, and he also wanted to latch onto the powerful figure he had missed before. So, he agreed to Situ Kongbo's request without hesitation.

However, when he went to the original location of the shopping mall, he didn't see the mall at all.

After asking around, the answer I got was that ever since the mall and the Dongda people inside were taken away by the children, they have never come back.

Undeterred, Pang You inquired further and discovered that Sun Qian and Gao Yang were Ruan Mianmian's friends. He then promptly called the two of them.

Sun Qian answered the phone, "She's probably gone on a long trip. Let me ask her—" As she said this, she asked Gao Yang, who was next to her, to call Ruan Mianmian. However, when they found that Ruan Mianmian was out of service area, her expression changed immediately. "How could this be?"

Pang You regretfully relayed the message to Situ Kongbo, and then added, "Sun Qian said she wants to contact you to ask about Ruan Mianmian."

Situ Kongbo immediately said, "Have them contact me right away."

He was curious to know why Sun Qian thought Ruan Mianmian had gone on a long trip.

Sun Qian got Pang You's contact information and quickly contacted Situ Kongbo: "Mr. Situ, we can't get through to Mianmian and Youyou on their phones. They say they're out of service area. Why did you suddenly contact Mianmian? Is something wrong?"

“I couldn’t get in touch with her either, that’s why I came to you,” Situ Kongbo said. “Why did you tell Pang You that she might have gone on a long trip?”

Sun Qian explained, "Because she sent us several boxes of our favorite hot pot base, like a farewell gift. I thought she was just going on a normal trip, but I never expected to lose contact with her." She was very anxious.

"Do you think they might fall into the hands of some interstellar rogue?"

Upon hearing this conjecture, Situ Kongbo's mind went blank, and his hands trembled involuntarily. He hurriedly said, "No, no."

Sun Qian hurriedly said, "Mr. Situ, if you get in touch with Mianmian, please let me know. Thank you."

Situ Kongbo had no intention of saying anything more and hung up the phone before she finished speaking.

Looking out at the dark and cold space, he dialed General Wang's number again.

General Wang was somewhat surprised to learn that he could not contact Ruan Mianmian, but after the initial surprise, he quickly came to a guess: "If they really can't be contacted, then they must have gone back to their home planet."

"Back to their home planet? Why has she never mentioned it before?" Situ Kongbo's heart eased slightly, followed by confusion.

General Wang said, "Because the civilization of East Blue Star is so profound, the Central Star gifted them a resource star. At that time, Ruan Mianmian said that there were not many people and they didn't need the resource star. We suggested that she could go back and bring the clan leader over to develop the resource star together. I suppose they went back to bring their people back."

Situ Kongbo felt that this was very likely, and his heart, which had been pounding, relaxed a little, but he was still a little unhappy: "If she's leaving, why doesn't she say goodbye to her friends?"

After saying that, he realized he had blocked Ruan Mianmian, and his face burned.

Lieutenant General Wang stroked his chin: "That's true, they didn't even say goodbye. But—"

Situ Kongbo hurriedly asked, "But what?"

Lieutenant General Wang said, "Ruan Mianmian gave me, the Marshal, and Feizhou a gift. Now that I think about it, it must have been a farewell gift? Otherwise, she wouldn't have given one to everyone she knew, would she?"

Situ Kongbo was extremely jealous: "You all received gifts?"

Lieutenant General Wang nodded, then asked curiously, "Didn't you receive it?"

Situ Kongbo's face flushed, but he stubbornly retorted, "How could that be?" Realizing his excuse was poorly worded, he quickly added, "I just don't understand, why didn't she tell us she was leaving? It's so far away, a planet outside our service area. Even if she jumped here, it would take at least several years! Why didn't she tell us she'd been gone for so long?!"

There are definitely no jump points outside the Federation development zone, so it would take a long time to fly to a jump point and then to get to the Federation via the jump point, which would take at least several years.

Lieutenant General Wang nodded: "That's true. It's really unethical of them to leave without saying goodbye."

Situ Kongbo nodded, but he wasn't entirely at ease: "Lieutenant General Wang, your speculation that Mianmian wants to return to her home planet is just that—a guess. Do you think Mianmian might have been kidnapped by some interstellar wanderer? Why don't you two try to find out more?"

Upon hearing this, Lieutenant General Wang also tensed up and said in a deep voice, "We haven't received any news recently, but I will investigate."

He hung up the phone and went to find Marshal Jiu, intending to inform him that he couldn't contact Ruan Mianmian and to further investigate the Interstellar Prodigal.

When they arrived at Marshal Jiu's place, they found him smiling broadly as he talked on the phone, his voice tinged with smugness: "Who told you to never take the initiative to contact anyone? Now it's too late to regret it! ... That's absolutely not going to work. At most, you can photocopy the contents, but the book can only be mine! So what if you can't read? You just don't recognize the characters from Dongda University right now, but I'll learn them in a while!"

As they were talking, they noticed that General Wang looked worried and, thinking something was wrong, quickly said goodbye to the person opposite him.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at Lieutenant General Wang and asked, "What happened?"

Lieutenant General Wang said, "Marshal, we can't get in touch with Ruan Mianmian. We don't know if she's been kidnapped by the interstellar wanderer."

Upon hearing this, Marshal Jiu breathed a sigh of relief and snorted, saying, "What do you mean she was captured by the interstellar prodigal? She went back to her home planet."
