Mu Feng stood up from his chair and said, "I need to look into some matters." Then he left.
Mu Liang glanced at the head of his espionage team."And what about the man who entered my house last night?"
The man scratched his head before saying, "He vanished right after he left your house. I'm sorry that I still couldn't find him. And the other thing. The girls, Yu Weiwei and Yu Meili have been investigated. Yu Weiwei is currently in Beijing with her family and Yu Meili is a secret agent of a private company. She went to Mexico City for an assignment. However, she vanished right after we finished with her investigation. My men are looking for her in both North and South America. They still can't find her."
"I see." Mu Liang calmly said. 'So, that's what it was. He must be desperate. '
Thinking that, Mu Liang reached out his cell phone and texted Jonah. Then he looked at his man and said, "Continue your report."
The head of the espionage team started gain, "According to the research we collected, it seems that the Mexican Mafia is indeed connected with Mohammed Akram. A month ago, a ship full of young woman went from Mexico to Saudi Arabia. It is heard that it was a gift from the Mexican Mafia to Mohammed Akram. After that, those girls were taken to his palace and none of them were seen of again. The mafia leader is known as Horse-master. He is well-known for his lust for women. When a woman enters his bedroom, she never comes back alive. He kills more than two hundred girls per year. He is the person whom the second boss was talking about after the US mafia war. Horse-master is looking for a golden key. It is still unknown whether Mohammed Akram knew about it or not."
He handed Mu Liang a file and continued, "I looked into Mohammed Akram's past. He never cared for wealth that much. To him, his top priority was his genius brain. No matter how much money it took, he was capable of hiring talented loyal people from all over the world. Since the very beginning, there was no one who betrayed him. His eyes for people were sharp. From this investigation it could be said that he had no interest in the gold key."
Mu Liang nodded in understanding."Have you sent any men to look into Mohammed Akram's palace?"
The agent answered, "I did send two men; however, they still can't enter the palace. They are still working on it. Since there is no one allowed to talk about Mohammed Akram in Riyadh, they couldn't gather much information."
Mu Liang narrowed his eyes. 'I'm getting more of a reason to go there. ' He instructed, "Use more manpower to look for the girl who was kidnapped. If possible, find out what her assignment was. There might be a possibility that Mexican Mafia got her."
The agent looked at his boss and said, "But it will mean that Horse-master and Mohammed Akram are working together."
Mu Liang thought, 'It also means that they know that Lan is Professor Ryuren's daughter and a member of The Cobra. But it is too good to be true. If my men cannot find out, I have to find out everything. '
He replied, "I know. And how's the investigation of Professor Ryuren going?"
The agent shook his head."There is still no clue. It's been twenty one years. It's not that easy."
Mu Liang nodded."Tell me the moment you get any clues. You can leave."
The agent nodded."Yes, boss."
After he left, Assistant Ju Long entered."Boss, did you call for me?"
Mu Liang said, "Hmm. Let Mohamed Alif know that I will be going in a week."
Assistant Ju Long had no idea what was going on between Mohammed Akram and Mu brothers. He only responded with a little nod."I will email him immediately."
Right after Assistant Ju Long left, Mu Liang got a call from an unknown number.
'Perfect timing. ' Mu Liang answered the call."Yes?"
From the other side of the phone, someone said, "Brother-in-law you surprise me. It's not even twenty four hours and you've found out everything."
Last night, Jonah went to Mexico City and settled there in the morning. He received a text from Mu Liang and it said, 'I know about your girlfriend. '
Jonah admitted that he was stupefied. He called Mu Liang instantly after reading the text.
"Were you really surprised?" Mu Liang asked. His tone was cold.
Jonah sighed."I know that it was our first encounter and I lied to you. But I was forced to do it. If I didn't, my girlfriend and the people in the hotel would be dead by now."
Mu Liang frowned."What hotel?"
Jonah gave him the details. Later he said, "Meili said that she rarely saw such grand hotel before. She is rich enough to stay in the luxurious hotels and she did that in the past. But this time, it is quite extraordinary."
"Did she tell you which hotel or which city she was?" Mu Liang asked.
"She couldn't. Before that, they took the cell phone from her." Jonah said dejectedly.
"What about IP address of the cell phone?" Mu Liang further asked.
Jonah sighed and replied, "I looked into it the first time they called me. It however the thing is, it's no number but some letters."
Mu Liang's frown became deeper."Letters? What letters?"
"Some symbolic letters. I looked into it but there is no such language in the world. Not even dead languages, like Latin." Jonah was truly helpless this time. He didn't let a single clue slip away from him to look for her. But everything was in vain.
Mu Liang thought about it. 'If it was an unknown number, it couldn't be an alien language. It could be some sort of code which can only specific people read. And if this girl was kidnapped by the Mexican mafia, I don't think she would be given such glamorous treatment as a hostage. Hmm... '
