I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping-Chapter 2109 - 1356: Brothers 2

Of course.

Not all scams are related to the north of Myanmar.

But if it is encountered an overseas scam, maybe the problem becomes simpler, open the chat software, send a private message, precise rescue, mission accomplished, absolutely much simpler than wasting police resources and efforts.

"It’s impossible it’s a scam."

Hong Xiaoyu suddenly spoke, particularly firm.

"Why is it impossible."

Jiang Chen, already thinking about the private message, inquired.

"His bed is right next to mine, if he was scammed, I would definitely know."

Reasoning was sound.

Scammers don’t make you fall for it suddenly, it’s a persistent process, as roommates who are together day and night, one couldn’t possibly fail to notice a discrepancy.

"Do you know the reason."

Uncertain if Fang Qing’s gaze is too sharp, Hong Xiaoyu found it difficult to meet her eyes.

"If you know something, it needs to be said, so we can effectively help him, it’s already been a week since he disappeared, the longer it drags on, the greater the unknown factors."

Duan Xueying persuaded.

Hong Xiaoyu’s face showed struggle.

"I, Sister Fang Qing, and Xue Ling, we aren’t police, say whatever needs to be said."

Jiang Chen stated calmly.

Glancing at him, Hong Xiaoyu clenched his teeth, finally spoke.

"I think the reason he’s hiding may be due to online gambling."

Online gambling?

Fang Qing frowned slightly.

It’s indeed good news not encountered a scam syndicate, but the harm of online gambling is not insignificant either.

One could even say that online gambling is a branch of telecommunication fraud.

With her job, she’s heard of many cases prompted by online gambling.

"Are you sure? Didn’t you say he was very frugal?"

Duan Xueying spoke.

"He is frugal, but online gambling has nothing to do with being frugal or not."

Hong Xiaoyu spoke difficultly, a sense of guilt, as if revealing a roommate’s secret.

Duan Xueying was at a loss for words.

Right.

Gambling targets the soft spots of human nature, which bears no relation to whether a person is frugal or not.

He was indeed frugal, but Hong Xiaoyu also mentioned that his roommate was very eager to succeed, desperately wanting to create a better living for his rural parents.

"Where did he get the money?"

Fang Qing persistently inquired.

"Loan apps? Credit card cash advances? Or campus loan sharks?"

"I don’t know... but he did borrow money from me."

"He borrowed money from you too?" Duan Xueying was surprised.

"Yes, four thousand."

"..."

Jiang Chen laughed, "Pretty rich, huh."

Hong Xiaoyu was embarrassed, "It’s all slowly saved from my part-time work."

"Earning money from hard, laborious work to lend to others, quite generous."

Fang Qing also gave... affirmation.

Hong Xiaoyu fully explained that people rarely learn from historical experiences.

He just mentioned that someone took his pocket money when he was a kid.

Duan Xueying chuckled bitterly, Fang Qing observed closely, the wealthy daughter showed only helplessness and concern, four thousand yuan for an ordinary family university student is not a small sum, but for her, it clearly means nothing.

Hong Xiaoyu and his brother are different.

Someone back then had no choice, yet he has this kind of girlfriend, can completely not work part-time.

To be blunt, needing to pityingly take part-time jobs outside the school as a boyfriend is rather shameful in Duan Xueying’s circle.

But Duan Xueying didn’t stop him.

What is this?

This is respect.

"Why didn’t you say so earlier?"

Hong Xiaoyu also felt bad for his girlfriend, his girlfriend helped, yet he hid, and now since he’s spoken out, might as well reveal all of his thoughts.

"If the police found out about the online gambling, the school would surely know, and his family too, then he might be expelled from school, his life could be ruined."

That’s how it was.

Indeed kind-hearted, but the way he considers problems is still lacking.

"Your kind concern assumes he can safely return. If he doesn’t come back, your kind concealment won’t mean anything."

Hong Xiaoyu didn’t understand the deeper meaning his brother conveyed, but Fang Qing understood.

Analyze the specific situation.

Better if it were telecommunication fraud.

If it’s fraud, there won’t be immediate life danger for a while, but if it’s online gambling...

"Are you really certain? He borrowed money, may well have other urgent affairs," Duan Xueying seemed to also realize something.

"Certain. He once told me, inviting me to visit his hometown during the holiday, all expenses on him. During that time, he’d be on his phone every night on his bed, we initially thought he was secretly dating someone, until once I glanced a few times while going to bed, found he was neither chatting nor gaming, just gambling on his phone."

Duan Xueying quieted down.

"Even if he lost, it’s okay. Why hide, if there’s a problem, everyone can find a way to solve it."

Hong Xiaoyu muttered incomprehensibly.

Fang Qing glanced at Jiang Chen.

The two brothers, due to family differences, had vastly different dispositions and societal understandings.

Hong Xiaoyu clearly belonged to the pure, simple university student living in an ivory tower.

Of course.

It’s not a bad thing.

Rather, it’s a kind of luck.

"Do you know how much he lost?"

At this moment, both Duan Xueying and Fang Qing surely realized something, yet given their positions, they were not suitable to speak, thus only Jiang Chen, as the brother, stepped forward.

"I don’t know, anyway I won’t blame him, big deal he repays after graduation and work."

"What if he lost more than your four thousand?"

"He doesn’t have much money either," Hong Xiaoyu unwittingly replied.

"No money, he can borrow, he can seek you, other classmates, friends, or online loans, four thousand is indeed not much pressure, you can save it from part-time jobs, at most it takes a long time, but if he lost forty thousand, four hundred thousand, or more."

Jiang Chen unhurriedly: "We don’t know him, from his perspective, do you think he can bear such pressure?"

Hong Xiaoyu was stunned, apparently never considered it this way.

"Brother... what do you mean?"

"Without a phone, with no ID, it’s not evading."

Jiang Chen was ruthless, "The focus of the following search can be placed in the waterways near Jiangcheng University, should yield results."

Hong Xiaoyu’s pupils trembled.

"Brother Jiang Chen makes sense."

Duan Xueying sighed softly.

Given the current information, the greatest possibility has become apparent.

This roommate named Ah Feng was likely deeply into online gambling, then fell into an abyss, after losing wealth his family couldn’t support at his age, left the world without saying goodbye to anyone.

Jumping off buildings, crashing cars, taking drugs, slashing wrists... would all be found quickly, only jumping into the river, would delay news.

"How is it possible..."

Hong Xiaoyu was just simple-minded, thoughts relatively straightforward, but not dumb, fools definitely couldn’t enter top-ranking universities, his cousin’s meaning was clear. Yet, he couldn’t accept it.

"How would he choose suicide..."

Fang Qing didn’t want to further hurt the pure heart of her not-brother brother, but she deeply understood life’s fragility.

A momentary impulse, a momentary confusion, might draw an end to one’s life.

Especially when facing setbacks and tribulations, one’s will can easily collapse.

Not everyone has such strong resilience like the person beside her.

Many times, enduring takes even more courage.

—Not everyone has someone beside them during trials, silently accompanying and guarding.

"If he had a girlfriend, the situation might be different."

Jiang Chen said.

Hong Xiaoyu was distracted.

"Not necessarily, perhaps, we overthought it."

Duan Xueying supported her boyfriend’s arm, comforting him.

"Did I do wrong."

Hong Xiaoyu looked bewildered.

"In this world, unfortunate things constantly happen, you only need to be true to your conscience, cherish those who cherish you."

Okay.

At this moment.

Seemingly a bit like being a brother.
