From the other end of the line, there was a two-second silence, followed by a cold laugh, "Chu Ge, I admit, you've indeed angered , but do you really find this interesting?"
Since the other party said that, Chu Ge knew that any more nonsense from his side would be aningless. He chuckled lightly, "Honestly, I find it quite interesting. Don't you agree, Dashabi?"
"Heh, since that's the case, perhaps I should reciprocate. How about I let you hear sothing interesting too?"
A sinister laugh ca through the receiver, and soon after, Chu Ge heard a crisp "snap," followed by a woman's muffled sobs.
The sound was indescribably tragic. Obviously, the woman's mouth was gagged, and she could only make such sounds. As for this woman's identity, it was likely Mu Xiaoting, who had been missing until now.
"How about it? Does this sound nice? Isn't it much more interesting than your little act? Hmm?"
The voice on the other side ca through again, cold with a slight hint of smugness.
Chu Ge remained silent, listening quietly and intently, trying to discern the environnt of the other party and gather any useful information.
"Oh? Chu Ge, you were quite talkative earlier, weren't you? Why have you gone mute now? By the way, weren't those three photos quite impressive?"
"They're okay."
"Just okay? Tsk tsk tsk… Don't you understand what it ans to appreciate? Those sorrowful, helpless eyes, that slightly trembling body, those silent lants, can't you see it? It's nothing short of art, perfect art!"
Chu Ge still didn't speak, hoping the other party would keep talking a bit longer, giving Lin Gaoze more ti.
"Heh, Chu Ge, many hours have passed since you saw those photos. You must be feeling very anxious, right? Are you spinning around like a top?"
"Ah, that must be quite an interesting sight. It's such a pity I couldn't see it with my own eyes."
"Oh, by the way, let ask, have you had dinner? Tsk tsk, my asking this is quite redundant. Since I've invited this woman, how could you possibly eat anything? I bet your stomach is growling right now, isn't it?"
Chu Ge chuckled coldly in his heart. This guy really had a lot to say, but at this mont, it was exactly what he wanted.
"Yes, since you're regretting not being able to see spinning anxiously, how about you listen to this sound? For soone like you, I believe you're quite looking forward to this kind of sound, right?"
Chu Ge taunted, hoping the other party would accept his suggestion, which would undoubtedly buy more ti. He could continue to delay with the excuse of "not knowing when the stomach will growl."
Unfortunately, this ti the answer from the other side was negative.
"Sorry, Mr. Chu Ge. Perhaps your suggestion is good, but right now, I'm not particularly interested."
Chu Ge furrowed his brows slightly, "Why?"
"Because... very soon, I'll see even more interesting scenes and hear even more delightful sounds, hahaha!" The other party laughed crazily a few tis and continued with a chuckle: "By the way, I suppose you've already asked the police to intercept and trace my call, right?"
Chu Ge furrowed his brows even more, "For the sake of the woman's safety in your hands, do you think I'd do such a thing?"
"Actually, I don't know whether you would or not. However, I think it's necessary to remind you that my phone is specially encrypted. I conservatively estimate that even if the police just want to eavesdrop on the call between us, it would take at least an hour. Do you think… I'd be interested in chatting with you for a whole hour?"
Chu Ge's brows now ford a deep furrow. No wonder the other party had been going on and on with him; he had nothing to fear!
"Alright, I don't feel like talking anymore for now. Go downstairs, drive out, I'll contact you again, we'll... et later! Hahahaha..."
With a burst of wild laughter, the other party ended the call, and in Chu Ge's ear, only the "beep beep" of a disconnected line remained.
Even though the other party said so, Chu Ge imdiately dialed Lin Gaoze's number. As soon as the call connected, he asked, "How is it? Any progress?"
"No, we couldn't even tap into it. What's going on with that number..."
"Captain Lin, don't ask so many questions for now. Don't get involved in this matter for the ti being. If possible, I'd like you to keep this confidential. Don't let more people, especially Mu Lingshan, know about it. I'll explain to you later. Trust , since I call you Brother Lin, I definitely won't harm you. Don't contact , that's it."
Without waiting for Lin Gaoze to finish speaking, Chu Ge hastily interrupted him, speaking quickly while picking up the dagger he had thrown on the dining table, striding out of the room, and hanging up the phone directly after speaking.
Now, he really had no other choice and could only follow the other's instructions.
After going downstairs and getting into the Maserati, as soon as Chu Ge drove the car out of Yipin Spring City District, the phone rang again. It was the sa number as before.
"Chu Ge, I suppose you must be in the car by now?"
"That's right, now what do you want to do?"
"What do I want you to do? If I said I wanted you dead, would you go die imdiately? Hmm? I warn you, the initiative is in my hands, you'd better speak to nicely! Beg ? As long as you beg properly, I'll tell you what you should do now."
"Okay, I'm begging you, tell what you want to do."
"Hahaha, that's more like it. Although your attitude isn't very sincere, I'm a magnanimous person, so I'll grudgingly let it go. Now head to the entrance of People's Park in Lidu City. Soone is waiting for you there. You have ten minutes. If you're late by a second, don't expect to see the woman in my hands today. Now... the countdown begins."
Hearing this, Chu Ge didn't hesitate to speed up the car to the maximum, heading towards People's Park in Lidu City. It's not close from here to the park; normally, it takes twenty minutes. He had no ti to waste.
In the stillness of the night, the Maserati was like a white lightning bolt, completely ignoring all red and green lights.
Fortunately, it was already past nine, and there weren't too many vehicles on the road. With Chu Ge's driving skills, cutting the ti needed in half wasn't too difficult.
However, as he sped wildly along the way, he scared the other drivers on the road quite a bit. In his multiple thrilling overtakes, many drivers cursed loudly.
"Crazy! Rushing to reincarnate?"
"So what if you drive a fancy car? Looking to die?"
After just eight minutes, Chu Ge arrived at the entrance of People's Park.
Lidu, being a bustling city, naturally boasts a vibrant nightlife. Even though it wasn't early, under the bright lights, the park entrance was still bustling with people coming and going.
Chu Ge's eyes scanned the crowd. Just as he slowed down the car, the phone rang again.
"Oh, you arrived exactly in eight minutes. I couldn't tell you were such a skilled driver. Or should I say, did I give you too much ti?"
Judging by the series of tricks from the other party, Chu Ge wasn't surprised they knew his location. They must have people around, but he couldn't distinguish which were ordinary citizens and which, or who, were the kidnapper's accomplices.
Chu Ge continued to scan the surroundings and said lightly, "Spare the complints. Since I'm here, where's the person I want to et?"
"I say... aren't you being too impatient? If you were , would you so easily grant your wish? Don't worry, the real show is just beginning, and the exciting part is coming."
Chu Ge didn't bother to waste words, "Alright, tell what you want to do now."
"Chu Ge, are you forgetting sothing? With that tone, do you think I'd tell you?"
In his mind, Chu Ge unfriendly greeted the won in the caller's family and said, "I'm begging you, tell what to do now."
"Simple, find a place to park, then go inside the park and run laps around the artificial lake. Considering your hard ride here, I won't make it too difficult. Just run five laps. But... it's still a tid challenge. You have forty minutes, and you know what happens if you're late by even a second, right?"
"Alright."
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, the timing has already started. Hmm, you now have thirty-nine minutes and fifty seconds, hahaha..."
With a burst of mad laughter, the caller hung up again.
In his heart, Chu Ge again greeted the family females of the caller. He slamd on the gas, then the brakes, executing a tailspin to park the car in a spot like a dragon's tail.
The whole process was seamless and beautiful, leaving long tire marks on the ground and a burnt sll in the air.
However, for the pedestrians who were nearly hit by the Maserati, this experience was far from pleasant. Chu Ge was once again unfriendly greeted, as two muscular young n were ready to speak with their fists.
Chu Ge had no ti to waste here. He slamd the car door open with a "bang," shouted "Sorry," squeezed past several pedestrians, and sprinted into the park entrance like a gust of wind.
Staring at the fast-disappearing figure of Chu Ge, the people at the park entrance were dumbfounded. Damn, how fast is he?
Even... just the wind from his run lifted the skirts of a few nearby girls?
