Soul Land IV - The Ultimate Combat

Chapter 35 - Missing

Heaven Dou Planet Scientific Research Institute.

"Nana, are you awake?" Yun Yan pressed the room communication device outside of Nana's room and asked idly as she leaned against the door.

Although Nana was considered to be free already, she still had to monitor her condition and report it to the higher-ups because of her special condition.

Nana would show her ancient martial arts skills at times so she got the role of a teacher at the Institute of Science and Technology. She tried asking her to be a teacher but she never agreed to it since all she wanted was to stay in her room so she could daydream.

"What should we do today?" She mumbled to herself. Nana refused to join her to do some hydrotherapy and she said that she cannot let others see her body. She had such a traditional mindset! Even after suffering from a memory loss, she didn't forget that. "Or should we go shopping? It's so boring! Why don't I bring her to the affiliated Academy of Sciences to take a look — she might be interested to become a teacher? If she really wants to be a teacher, I don't have to keep accompanying her and she could have more freedom."

Why isn't she opening the door?

Nana would always open the door within just five seconds every time she called her out in the past but this time, over ten seconds have passed.

"Nana, it's me, Yun Yan! Open the door." Yun Yan laughed casually but still, nobody answered the door.

After waiting for nearly a minute, Yun Yan finally felt that something was wrong. She quickly took out the door's spare keycard that she had which was her authority as her guardian and opened the door to welcome herself in.

The room was clean and tidy, her bed was made too but there was no trace of Nana at all.

"Nana, Nana..." After calling her out twice and searching her entire room, Yun Yan's face turned awful.

Nana never went out alone!

She quickly dialed Nana's Soul Guidance communication device but she only met a busy tone at her end

The Soul Guidance communication device had a location tracker but if one turned it off forcefully, the location tracker would be turned off as well. For modern people these days, it was almost impossible for this to happen because everyone was strongly reliant on their communication device. It was now clear that Nana shut hers off forcefully.

She looked around everywhere and saw a piece of paper.

"Yun Yan, I'm going out for a period of time. I found something I would like to do and you don't have to look for me. I will return when I am done or perhaps I might never return. —— Nana"

It was a simple note but after Yun Yan read it, her sweat had started trickling down. As her guardian, the person she was taking care of had gone missing and she even said that she might not return — how was she going to explain this to the higher-ups!

Yun Yan didn't dare to delay herself further and she quickly made a call...

The spacecraft successfully flew out of the atmosphere and into a long and smooth flight once again. It took them seven days to reach it so it would naturally take them seven days to travel back home too.

On the journey back, Nan Cheng and Lan Xiao were sleepy. The return journey from vacation was always tiring with a bit of reluctance on the side.

Lan Xiao expected that they wouldn't see Nana again, he obviously thought that it was great and simply thought of it as a coincidence. What he really wanted was for his family to be safe, not for his son to be outstanding. He wanted to let everything take its course.
