Rebirth 90: I changed my fate by winning the lottery

"So, what are you going to do?"

The vice consul said, "You see, we have been with you for two days without following the procedures. We first looked for you, and today we looked for Professor Li for another day. I think, why don't we wait until Professor Li has been missing for 24 hours, and then let the police intervene and look for him together?"

"Excuse me for being blunt." Ding Mo interrupted him.

"You just said that the J country police are inefficient. I think you have almost been assimilated by them." Ding Mo said.

The deputy consul was furious: "How can you talk like that, classmate?"

Ding Mo was not afraid of him and replied: "First of all, I just told you that I was kidnapped in Country J. As a legal citizen, I encountered these things within your jurisdiction. Not only did you not ask about the various circumstances, but you also had no intention of continuing to deal with this matter."

Ding Mo imitated the consul's tone and said, "Secondly, Professor Li is also a legal citizen who disappeared on the territory of Country J. You should be more anxious to help find him. Why are you now suggesting a 24-hour process?"

After listening to Ding Mo, the deputy consul said directly: "You don't understand..."

Ding Mo interrupted him anxiously again: "I don't understand, but is this your attitude towards doing things..."

Another consulate staff member who had just spoken came up and grabbed Ding Mo: "Little classmate, I understand how you feel now. You just encountered this kind of thing, and now Professor Li is also missing. But don't worry, Consul Wu didn't mean that."

He turned around and signaled to the deputy consul to stop adding fuel to the fire.

"Now is not the time to argue. The situations that Consul Wu mentioned are objective. Please understand that even if we go to coordinate, the police in Country J will only let us follow the procedures before the procedural time. In addition, didn't you just say that they might be colluding with criminal gangs?"

He paused and said, "If it is true as you guessed, that Professor Li was taken away by those people, then now is the last time to ask them for help. Even if they don't directly refuse to help us find him, it will delay time."

After listening to him, Ding Mo calmed down. She knew the significance of delaying time very well. She delayed time in various ways to wait for Zhou Lang to rescue her. But if the other party delayed time, it would be too disadvantageous.

The consulate staff also advised: "I also think that the first priority now is to send you back to your country. It is indeed not safe for you to stay in Country J."

"But Professor Li..." Ding Mo wanted to say that at least he wanted to hear them come up with a clear plan on how to deal with this matter.

"Consul Wu and I will go back to the consul to report the situation. At least once 24 hours are up, Country J will have to take action and find someone for us."

Two people were left at the consulate, and they would send Ding Mo to the airport together with the working group. They had to see with their own eyes that Ding Mo and Wu You boarded the plane back home.

Ding Mo and Wu You quickly started packing their luggage.

Ding Mo pulled Qi Zan over and said, "If Professor Li was really taken away by them, then we can only find a way to get clues from Meng Suo. He can only tell you..."

Qi Zan took her hand and said, "I know. I will go find him. Don't worry too much. Maybe things are not as bad as we thought. What if Professor Li is lost..."

Qi Zan couldn't continue speaking. Who could be lost and not show up for a whole day and a night and not answer the phone?

Ding Mo comforted him in return: "I know, don't worry too much, and pay attention to your own safety. I'll wait for you to come back to school."

Qi Zan pulled her over, pulled her into his arms, and hugged her tightly: "Yeah."

--------

Ding Mo and Wu You came to the hotel restaurant, ready to have a quick bite before going to the airport. Qi Zan and Qiao Guang went to help them carry their luggage.

Just as he took the plate and sat down, a little boy climbed over to the seat next to Ding Mo and sat down.

Ding Mo took a look and saw that it was the boy who was recuperating in Mengsuo's clinic.

Ding Mo looked at him strangely. How could he suddenly appear here and run to her side?

The little boy sat down and reached out to take the boiled egg from Ding Mo's plate and stuffed it directly into his mouth. Ding Mo was afraid that he would choke and quickly handed him a glass of milk.

The little boy chewed for a long time before swallowing the egg.

"Zanta wants to see you." The little boy spoke fluent English.

Ding Mo was stunned. He knows English?

"Who is Zhanta?"

The little boy said, "Chief, he said you are a fat sheep and you can't go alone. You must go and see Pengsha who released you."

Ding Mo felt a chill all over her body as she looked at the little boy.

She thought that Zhou Lang had saved the boy, so she should at least be grateful to him. But now it seemed that it was a sharp knife stabbing him in the back. How much did the little boy tell the so-called leader? Did Zhou Lang report everything to his leader every time she went to see him?

"How is Pengsha?" Ding Mo asked.

"Yes, he's still alive. Remember, Zhan Ta asked you to meet him under the White Tower, and you can only come alone." After he said that, he jumped off the stool and ran away quickly.

Wu You looked at Ding Mo. She heard their entire conversation.

As for Zhou Lang, she also knew that he was Peng Sha, but she had no idea who he was. She only knew that he was familiar with Ding Mo. And he saved her during the day, and she was very grateful.

"Don't go." Wu You said.

Ding Mo smiled bitterly. If Zhou Lang really encountered something because of her, how could she abandon him? Moreover, if Zhou Lang's identity was exposed, the consequences would be disastrous. Now that she appeared, Zhou Lang still had a glimmer of hope.

"Wu You, go back to your country." Ding Mo looked at her.

Wu You pushed his black-framed glasses and said, "It's not me they want to arrest. It doesn't really matter whether I go back or not. Maybe I can help you in some way if I stay."

Ding Mo stopped her: "Just like I also want to stay and help Professor Li, but I know that my presence may only bring trouble. No one can guarantee whether they will come to find you."

Wu You wanted to say something, but Ding Mo interrupted her:

"Also, don't tell Qi Zan now. Wait until I leave... tell him not to act rashly. He will understand what I mean. Also... I'm afraid Meng Suo..."

Ding Mo stood at the back door of the hotel, waiting for Wu You to bring her the keys to the tricycle.

Ding Mo took the key and hugged Wu You.

After living in the same dormitory for two years, the two had never been so close.

"I'm sorry, thank you," she said.

Then he rode away on his gasoline tricycle without looking back.

Wu You wasn't sure whether Ding Mo was saying "I'm sorry, thank you" to her or to Qi Zan.

Perhaps, it was addressed to both of them.
