Chapter 187: Chapter 115 Assassin Sect_2
Yan Fei began to observe the surroundings, hoping to find so information about the kidnappers or discover where Lu Pingping had been taken, so he could go and rescue her. However, he was no professional and couldn’t discern any hidden clues amidst the chaotic scene. He didn’t know who was behind this, but had an intuition that this kidnapping was definitely related to him.
He had put up a Bounty on the Dark Web within the Underworld, offering a staggering one hundred million US Dollars, attracting Assassins eager to take him down. But he always kept a low profile, and even though he had appeared near the Yunnan National Border on this trip, he left there imdiately, giving no chance for the Assassins seeking his life. It’s possible that the kidnappers targeted Lu Pingping because they couldn’t find an opportunity to kill Yan Fei, thinking that by doing so, they could get to Yan Fei.
With this possibility in mind, Yan Fei felt guilty beyond asure. Because of him, Lu Pingping had suffered on his behalf and found herself in danger. If these kidnappers were indeed targeting Yan Fei, then Lu Pingping would be safe until they made contact with him. He quickly made a decision, though unsure if it was the right one — he decided to call the police. Even though involving the police might put Lu Pingping in greater peril, it seed like the best option available. If the kidnappers were after Yan Fei, they likely wouldn’t harm Lu Pingping until they achieved their goal.
If Yan Fei chose not to call the police, he would be clueless in dealing with the kidnapping, unable to find any leads or chances to rescue Lu Pingping. Hence, he had to rely on the skills of police professionals to quickly help him uncover clues to crack the case. With clues in hand, he could deploy the Drone to rescue Lu Pingping.
By kidnapping Lu Pingping, whatever their goal, the abductors had crossed Yan Fei’s red line. He had decided that the mont he found any clue of these kidnappers, regardless of who they were, even if they were hiding in Shanghai, once he confird Lu Pingping’s safety, he would deploy the Drone without hesitation to kill them all, even if it ant exposing his secrets. His murderous intent towards these kidnappers was even stronger than when he faced Ryoko Oogawa of the Oogawa Family, as these people had targeted the innocent Lu Pingping, not him directly.
Upon receiving Yan Fei’s ergency call, learning that the General Manager of Dream Technology had been kidnapped with her whereabouts unknown, the entire Shanghai circle was shocked. The subsidiary of Dream Technology, Dream Foods, was a star Enterprise in Shanghai with the potential to grow into an international giant, and the disappearance of a high-ranking Company figure on their own turf was a serious incident. Under the attention of Shanghai’s higher-ups, the Criminal Investigation Team mobilized quickly, with team leader Wei Chao personally arriving at the cri scene to lead the search operation.
Wei Chao and his expert team carefully examined the scene, collecting various pieces of left-behind data. The already dead Wang Li had been covered with a white cloth and sent to the morgue, while the severely injured Liu Hong had been taken to the best Hospital in Shanghai for ergency treatnt. The police tested the bloodstains left at the scene and found they all belonged to Wang Li and Liu Hong, with no trace of Lu Pingping’s blood, which sowhat eased Yan Fei’s worries. It was also frightening to see the formidable Strength of the kidnappers; Wang Li and Liu Hong were Experts from the military equipped with Pistols, but they were killed or severely injured in direct combat without injuring the opponent, indicating that the kidnappers’ capabilities far surpassed theirs.
Yan Fei watched the police tirelessly gather information, while he sat at the cri scene, concerned for Lu Pingping’s safety, motionless. In just half a night, his face beca rough with stubble, looking haggard and worn.
After checking the progress of the search, Wei Chao ca over to Yan Fei and asked, “Mr. Yan, we need to collect so intelligence, so I have a few questions for you, would that be alright?”
Yan Fei replied, “Yes, ask away!”
Wei Chao inquired, “Where were you when Lu Pingping disappeared?”
Yan Fei recalled, “I had just returned from Banna City, and she must have been taken around the ti I just got off the Airplane.”
One of Wei Chao’s subordinates quickly noted down the conversation between him and Yan Fei, and Wei Chao continued to ask, “Does Lu Pingping have any enemies?”
After so thought, Yan Fei shook his head and said, “Lu Pingping has always been asured in her actions. Even if she offended anyone, she would not do so irreparably. So, she couldn’t have any enemies, let alone soone who hated her enough to kidnap her.”
Wei Chao then asked, “Has your Company made any enemies in the business world?”
Reminded by Wei Chao’s question, Yan Fei imdiately thought of Greensun Capital, with whom they had irrevocably fallen out. Could it be possible that Greensun Capital arranged for Lu Pingping’s kidnapping, aiming to make him yield and achieve their goal of investing in the Company? But Greensun Capital had already deployed business partners to blockade his Company’s products from entering the international Market; they wouldn’t need to kidnap Lu Pingping as well, would they? If he found out Greensun Capital was behind it, even if they did manage to invest in Dream Technology, he might choose a scorched-earth policy, ensuring they gained nothing. Having been established for many years, Greensun Capital should understand this, so the likelihood of them waging war on two fronts against Yan Fei seed small.
