Quick Transmigration: The Villain Always Ends Up with the Male Lead

Chapter 139 The Two-Faced Saint is a Big Shot (25)

The man nodded and then took out a piece of paper covered with names.

Shi Qi took the list and glanced at it. He found that, in addition to possessing the power of light, all the missing people were male, and Lord was among them.

If they disappeared mysteriously, then finding them would be extremely difficult. Just as 007 was about to ask if there was any way to find these people quickly, Frederick spoke up again.

Frederick looked at the messenger and said, "According to what you've said, these people have disappeared mysteriously, and it must be difficult to investigate them..." He then looked at Shi Qi and said, "In that case, leave the search to me."

Shi Qi hesitated, looking at Frederick: "Are the Knights manpower sufficient?" Although it was a question, he knew very well that they were not enough. Even as the Crown Prince, Frederick could only mobilize a limited number of people, making it difficult to quickly locate the missing believers in such a vast empire.

Frederick smiled slightly, but his eyes were very firm: "Don't worry, I will find these missing believers in three days at most."

Although his mind was full of guesses, Shi Qi nodded: "Okay, I'll leave this to you..." Then he turned to the person who came to report: "Send people to search together, and be sure to find the missing person as soon as possible."

Frederick and the man nodded after listening, then turned and left together, preparing to go and look for the person.

Watching his departing figure, Shi Qi asked 007, "Dog, don't you think this crown prince looks familiar?"

007's little head was full of questions: "Familiar? Where is it familiar?" He looked at the back of Frederick's head as he left and tried hard to remember, but he just couldn't figure it out.

Shi Qi sighed inwardly, "Forget it, I don't expect you to figure anything out..." He paused for a moment, then answered 007's question, "He should be the boss who wears a mask."

"What? It's him?!" 007's voice was full of surprise. He really hadn't expected it at all. "These two don't seem to have similar personalities! That boss isn't as humble as him."

Shi Qi was speechless: "What? Can't they pretend?"

Upon hearing this, 007 chuckled awkwardly twice, "That's true..."

Shi Qi: "I guessed he recognized me, didn't I? Actually, most people should recognize a disguised pope, because it's hard to come into contact with him in their lives. So, someone who could recognize me in that situation must be someone who knows me well."

"Furthermore, Frederick volunteered to search for the missing believers. If he were merely the Crown Prince or the Grand Master of the Knights, he wouldn't dare guarantee that he could find the missing believers within three days. Therefore, I can assure you that he has some unknown identity, and that identity is enough to make him confident enough to make such a promise."

"Based on these two points, I reasonably guess that Frederick is the boss."

"Godfather, is there anything I can do for you?" Fran's voice suddenly rang out, pulling Shi Qi back to reality. If Shi Qi had listened carefully, he would have been able to detect the subtle awkwardness in Fran's voice.

Fran clearly saw that Shi Qi was staring blankly at Frederick's back, so he couldn't help but speak up to draw Shi Qi's attention.

At this moment, Fran showed no jealousy towards Frederick; he simply looked at Shi Qi with genuine sincerity, as if he really wanted the task assigned to him.

Looking at his sincere expression, Shi Qi thought for a moment, then shook his head: "You don't need to worry about this. Just do your usual things, and we'll take care of it."

Fran felt even worse upon hearing Shi Qi's answer: "We"? Were they just excluding him like that?

Although he was heartbroken, Fran still put on a kind and understanding expression: "I understand, Godfather... If you need anything later, be sure to come to me!"

Shi Qi smiled and nodded: "Yes."

However, Badr, upon hearing Shi Qi's words, retorted directly: "We? With whom are you excluding me and this useless kid with just one sentence?"

Fran was immediately provoked by his words: "No! Who are you calling useless?!"

Badr said dismissively, "Who else could it be? Of course it's you, you greenhorn who's not even twenty and can't do anything right."

Fran: "What makes you think I can't do anything right?!"

Badr: "With such a big incident, no one wants to hire you."

Fran's eyes widened slightly, and he said angrily, "Didn't the Godfather also not assign you any work? What right do you have to criticize me like this?"

Bader paused for a moment, then turned to Shi Qi and said, "Speak, what do you want me to do?"

Shi Qi fell silent for a long time, then shook his head: "No..."

Badr: "..."

Fran gloated, "Looks like someone else is a useless person who can't do anything right." Although he couldn't see Badr, Fran still felt a cold gaze fixed on him. Nevertheless, he was quite pleased to have made Badr look bad.

----

Frederick was very efficient; he brought news two days later.

He rushed up to Shi Qi, and his first words were: "The missing believers have been found..."

Shi Qi: "Where are they?"

Frederick frowned and said, "They're trapped in a massive contaminated area on the northern border of the Empire, and my men can't rescue them..."

Another massive contaminated site? ... Shi Qi raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to me."

Frederick nodded: "Alright, the contaminated area is dangerous. I'll take a group of men with me."

Shi Qi did not refuse, and just as the two were about to leave the reception room, they encountered Fran, who pushed open the door and came in. He looked very anxious, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Shi Qi and Frederick were still inside.

"Godfather, let me come along this time too!" Fran said directly.

Shi Qi paused for a moment, then quickly nodded in agreement: "Okay, you can come along." Although he didn't know how dangerous the contaminated area was, considering Fran's protagonist aura, Shi Qi felt that there shouldn't be any major problems.

Badr now takes every opportunity to stab Fran in the back: "I'm here with you, is it really necessary to send him to his death?"

Although He said this to Shi Qi, He did not avoid mentioning Fran at all.

However, with Frederick present, even if Fran had a thousand words of apology to Badr's mother in his heart, he couldn't bring himself to say them.
