Chapter 129 Cunning
Old Wu was also stunned when he heard this! Then he started to dial the number tremblingly - when most people encounter such a thing, the first thing they think of is to call the police.
Zhang Shuxin held his hand and said, "Don't call the police! They... might hurt Xiaoliang."
Old Wu also reacted, and he asked in a trembling voice: "What did the other party ask of you?" He knew that Zhang Shuxin had good conditions, but it seemed that he didn't have enough money to make the bad guys dream about it.
"I have some business secrets that they need..." Zhang Shuxin could only explain as directly as possible.
Mrs. Wu rushed over and grabbed Zhang Shuxin and said, "Brother Zhang, I shouldn't have said those nonsense just now. Just give them whatever they want! If you push them too far, both children will be doomed!" She also knew that it was too selfish to say this, but maternal love is sometimes selfish.
Old Wu pushed her aside and asked Zhang Shuxin in a low voice: "Can we give it to them?"
Zhang Shuxin said bitterly: "It has come to this point, there is nothing I can't give you, but——"
At this time, Zhang Nianzu brought Li's uncle and nephew and Lei Tingting into the ward, followed by Xu Yingdong. Zhang Nianzu was originally talking and laughing, but as soon as he entered the room, he found that the atmosphere was not right, and he couldn't help but asked in surprise: "What's wrong, where is Xiaoliang?"
"Xiaoliang has been kidnapped, and the kidnapper wants a... secret from Brother Zhang..." Although Old Wu was panicked, he quickly explained the situation.
Zhang Shuxin said: "What they want is similar to some drawings, which contain the planning and budget of a piece of land."
Everyone in the room was silent. Zhang Nianzu frowned and asked Zhang Shuxin, "How important is that thing?"
Zhang Shuxin leaned on the bed and said weakly: "No matter how important it is, it's not as important as Xiaoliang, but the thing is not in my hands."
Everyone asked at once: "Where is it?"
Zhang Shuxin said: "To be on the safe side, I put it into a USB drive and gave it to Xiaoliang, and there is only one copy."
Zhang Nianzu asked, "Does Xiaoliang know the truth?"
Zhang Shuxin said vaguely: "I didn't tell him, but considering the child's precocity , he should have guessed it."
Mrs. Wu asked anxiously, "If we tell this to the kidnappers, will they let Xiaoliang go after they take the things?"
Zhang Nianzu shook his head and said, "If that happens, we won't have any bargaining chips. No one knows what the kidnappers will do after they get angry. We can't take that risk. And since Xiaoliang didn't say anything, it means he has his considerations."
Li Changgui said calmly, "Those people actually kidnapped a warrior from the Strongman tribe?"
Zhang Nianzu whispered, "But don't forget that Xiaoliang has not yet acquired the power of a warrior."
Zhang Nianzu asked: "You are so careful, does that mean you know someone is targeting you?"
Zhang Shuxin said hesitantly: "Yes, there is, but... there is no evidence..."
Lei Tingting said anxiously: "Oh, it's already this late, why are you still talking about evidence? If you have any, just tell me now!"
Zhang Shuxin said: "Several companies have tried to test me, but the people from Changfeng Group are more unusual."
"It's this Gu Changfeng again!" Zhang Nianzu clenched his fists.
Lei Tingting said without hesitation: "I'll make a few phone calls. Once we know his whereabouts, we'll go find him directly!" She went out for a short while and came back with a stern face, saying, "Gu Changfeng is traveling abroad today and is on the plane now."
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. No one was sure whether it was a coincidence or a trick to escape. But starting with Gu Changfeng was undoubtedly not feasible for the time being.
Zhang Nianzu asked Zhang Shuxin again: "Can you make a fake one for them?"
Zhang Shuxin said, "The kidnappers are not stupid. They will definitely not release us until they have inspected the goods. It took me a month to make that thing. If I make one on the spur of the moment... you can tell the real thing from the fake at a glance." He checked the time and said, "Besides, it's too late to fake it." The other party wanted to see the goods at eleven o'clock, and it was already a quarter after ten. Obviously, he only had time to hurry.
"No need to be serious." Xu Yingdong suddenly took off his white coat and said calmly, "Just go wherever the kidnappers tell you to go. I will help you find the mastermind behind this."
Zhang Shuxin and Old Wu were stunned at the same time and asked, "Doctor Xu?" They didn't understand why a doctor suddenly became so domineering.
Xu Yingdong said: "I will solve the technical problems, and it's up to you when we need to take action."
Zhang Nianzu said gratefully, "Thank you very much." Although Xu Yingdong was a scout of the Qiangren tribe, he had no intention of getting involved in other people's disputes. He was surprised that he was willing to help this time.
Xu Yingdong said: "My job is to cure diseases and save lives. Zhang Xiaoliang is temporarily considered my patient. I have the obligation to keep him lying safely on the operating table."
At this time, Zhang Shuxin's phone rang again. The other party did not tell Zhang Shuxin the specific handover address, but only asked him to leave the hospital and drive east.
After Zhang Shuxin hung up the phone, he couldn't help shaking all over and asked, "What should I do?"
Xu Yingdong asked: "Do you have a useless USB drive?"
"have."
"Give me."
Zhang Shuxin took out a USB flash drive from her bag and handed it to him.
Xu Yingdong asked everyone: "Who has something like hand cream? As long as it has a scent, it will be fine."
Lei Tingting held up the bottle of cheap perfume and asked, "Is this okay?"
Xu Yingdong picked up the perfume and sprayed it on the USB drive. "It's done." He returned the USB drive to Zhang Shuxin and said, "Just think of it as genuine information. When you meet the kidnapper, follow his instructions. Leave the rest to me. Just drive your car and don't look for us."
Zhang Shuxin's emotions gradually stabilized, and he said calmly, "Okay!"
Xu Yingdong then said to Zhang Nianzu : "I will take your car. All you have to do is follow my instructions. You don't have to deliberately follow anyone."
"clear!"
The men turned around and walked out together, while Lei Tingting stayed to accompany Mr. and Mrs. Wu.
Wu Doudou blinked her eyes and finally shouted, "Brother Nianzu, you all need to come back safely!"
Zhang Nianzu made a face at him and said, "Don't worry, no one will be in trouble except those who are against us."
…
When they arrived at the parking lot, Xu Yingdong said to Zhang Shuxin, "Remember to open the car window a crack."
Zhang Shuxin did as he was told and drove off. Zhang Nianzu watched his car disappear. Xu Yingdong still didn't give the order to drive. He couldn't help but said, "I know you are capable, but what if..."
Xu Yingdong said calmly, "There is no such thing as a contingency. The kidnappers will never show up without confirming safety, so we will only be exposed if we follow Zhang Shuxin. We are following the USB drive to see who gets it in the end."
Zhang Nianzu could only nod.
After a while, Xu Yingdong said, "Let's go."
Zhang Nianzu started the car and drove on the road for a while but did not see Zhang Shuxin appear in his sight. However, Xu Yingdong was directing the direction calmly. At an intersection, he sniffed and frowned.
Zhang Nianzu panicked and said, "Did you lose me?"
Xu Yingdong said: "No, you should buy your girlfriend a better perfume. This smell is too pungent - turn left."
Zhang Nianzu could only chuckle.
At this time, Zhang Shuxin called and said anxiously: "The kidnappers asked me to put the USB drive in a roadside trash can. What should I do now?"
Xu Yingdong said: "It's none of your business, wait for the news."
Zhang Nianzu looked around and asked, "Which trash can?"
"Not on the dumpster anymore - following the guy on the motorcycle."
Things finally reached the most critical step, and Zhang Nianzu found that his palms were actually sweating.
The motorcyclist in front was riding very fast, talking on the phone. He rode a few blocks and parked the motorcycle opposite a closed shopping mall.
Ah San and Ah Si rubbed their hands and asked, "Do you want to arrest someone?"
Xu Yingdong sat there concentrating, his ears twitching slightly, and suddenly said, "Don't arrest him! He's just a takeaway boy, and someone paid him to bring the food here."
Zhang Nianzu gritted his teeth and said, "Cunning!"
This move is both looking for a scapegoat and bringing disaster to Jiangdong. If the guy was being followed by the police, he should have been "caught" by now.
Li Changgui asked: "Then should we continue to follow the delivery guy?"
Xu Yingdong pricked up his ears and listened for a moment, then took the lead and said, "No need to follow him. The person who called him and controlled him is sitting in the KFC next to the mall. He speaks with a southern accent and has a cup of coffee in front of him. You can arrest him now!"
Zhang Nianzu and his group rushed down and ran into KFC. On a double seat, a man was holding a phone and looking out. In front of him was a half-drunk cup of coffee...
Ah San and Ah Si walked up to him and pressed him on the table without saying a word. At this time, the delivery boy came in. Although he was a little surprised by the scene in front of him, he put the USB flash drive on the table and said, "Sir, your food has been delivered." After that, he clapped his hands and walked away.
Zhang Nianzu lifted the man's chin and asked sternly, "Where did you take Zhang Xiaoliang?"
The man looked at the people in front of him in horror and said in a southern accent: "What are you doing? I don't know Zhang Xiaoliang!"
Ah Si picked up the USB drive and placed it in front of him and said, "Don't cry until you see the coffin! How do you say that?"
The man struggled hard and said angrily, "What's wrong with this? Is transmitting data illegal?"
"You're still being stubborn!" Asan was about to use force.
Zhang Nianzu stopped him and asked the man, "What did you say?"
The man pointed his chin at the computer on the table and said, "Someone paid me to send the delivery information to a designated mailbox. Is this illegal?"
Zhang Nianzu asked, "How do you prove that what you said is true?"
The man grinned and said, "I sell computers at the computer mall next door. When that person came to me, many of my colleagues saw it with their own eyes. If you don't believe me, ask them when you go to work tomorrow!"
Xu Yingdong did not get out of the car, but he heard every word the man said clearly in the car. His heart was sinking because he knew that this time he might have fallen into someone else's trap because of his overconfidence!
