Chapter 542 - 533: Consequences That No One Can Afford (3rd Update)
Chapter 533: Chapter 533: Consequences That No One Can Afford (3rd Update)
After hanging up the phone.
Several gang leaders chuckled, “What’s the matter? Is Director Qin considering giving Du some business again….”
The laughter gradually faded away.
Because the look on Du Fan’s face was almost murderous.
“Make a call, gather all our people!” Du Fan ordered his men coldly.
“Yes!” Du Fan’s men obeyed and left.
The expressions of the gang leaders became somewhat unnatural.
The eldest of them asked, “Boss Du, what are you planning to do?”
Du Fan slowly stood up and gave the gang leaders a menacing smile.
“I advise you to go back and check if any of your men have kidnapped two young girls. If so, hand them over immediately, otherwise… not even the Immortal can save you!
With that, Du Fan turned and left.
The gang leaders looked at each other, clueless about the meaning behind Du Fan’s words.
But such a big incident couldn’t be hidden.
It didn’t take long for these gang leaders to each receive a phone call about the notification.
Upon understanding the severity of the situation, their complexions turned even grimmer than Du Fan’s a moment ago. They all rushed back to their lairs to conduct a thorough search.
Back at his own lair, Du Fan’s subordinates hurriedly approached to report, “Boss, we’ve checked, and none of our people did this!”
“Are you sure?”
“Those who’ve done such things before have been crippled and wouldn’t dare to lie! We’re absolutely sure!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Du Fan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness!
The situation hadn’t gotten too bad yet.
If his own men had been the kidnappers, the consequences…
Du Fan shuddered, afraid to continue the thought, and then said in a deep voice, “Release all the youngsters, whether they’re at a KTV or a bar, or even a rat hole, you must find them! Make sure we find those two girls before anyone else does! Got it?”
“Yes!”
All of Beijiang started to boil over.
Whether it was the underworld or legitimate societies, big and small powers alike, they all sprang into action upon hearing the wind.
Especially since Qin Yu had announced a reward, offering ten million to whoever found the two girls.
Even information leading to them would net five million!
At the same time, Du Fan had issued an underworld hit order, threatening to ‘light sky lanterns’ for anyone who dared withhold information.
In short, the whole of Beijiang was about to turn upside down.
Meanwhile, in the living room of Number One Tian Villa.
An Yan leaned on the sofa, her expression vacant.
Qin Yuan and Qin Yu, the grandfather and grandson, sat quietly on the other side.
By now it had grown dark outside.
The two little girls still hadn’t returned.
The hope that they would come back on their own could be written off as lost.
Which meant it was certain that the two little girls had definitely met with some trouble.
This reality hit An Yan like a sledgehammer, shattering her heart.
Qin Yuan and Qin Yu were also as pale as paper at this moment.
Because the matter was too significant.
So significant that the two controllers of the Qin Group couldn’t bear it.
Thinking about Mr. Xue returning to find his daughter missing terrified Qin Yuan and Qin Yu.
Yes!
Mr. Xue was usually good to them.
But both the grandfather and granddaughter knew very well that this was because no one had touched Xue An’s bottom line.
If someone had, no matter who they were, Xue An would show no mercy in annihilating them.
Undoubtedly, these two little girls were absolutely the untouchable high-voltage line to Xue An!
If they had truly been harmed on his own turf.
It was likely… that the entire Beijiang would become a funeral offering under Mr. Xue’s fury.
The more Qin Yu thought about it, the more frightened she became.
It was at this moment that the cellphone on the coffee table rang.
Qin Yu immediately answered the call and turned on the speakerphone.
“Speak!”
“Chairman, there’s just been an update from Du Fan’s side; he has asked around all the gangs, big and small, in Beijiang and confirmed that no one has kidnapped the two young ladies!”
This news made everyone in the room look even grimmer.
If that was the case, finding the two little girls among the vast crowds would become incredibly more difficult.
“However, by reviewing the surveillance cameras around Yunmeng Villa, we can confirm that the two young ladies were on the street at around noon, and then they were taken away by a ride-hailing car!”
“We’ve found the driver of that ride-hailing car, and he said the last place where the two young ladies got off was at the newly opened aquarium!”
An aquarium?
The eyes of everyone in the room gradually lit up.
It made sense for the two little girls to run away from home to play at the aquarium.
“And then?” Qin Yu asked in a stern voice.
“We’ve already searched the aquarium three times, kicking open every stairwell, and haven’t found any trace of the young ladies! However, through questioning, we found that many people have seen the two young ladies, and someone provided a clue saying that they left with a young woman!”
The hearts of everyone tightened once again.
They left with a young woman?
Could it be that they were really taken away by human traffickers from outside the area?
“Keep searching!” Qin Yu said sternly.
The information came back quickly this time.
“Chairman, we’ve found out that a young woman took the two young ladies onto a silver-gray sedan. The license plate is unclear, and then it left! We are in the process of retrieving footage from various intersections! At the same time, we have everyone starting a dragnet search for this vehicle!”
“Good!”
Although they had not found them, at least they had a valuable lead.
Consequently, the expressions around the room became much more animated.
Even An Yan, who had been in a daze, now had a liveliness in her eyes.
However, unexpectedly, just as everyone thought victory was within reach,
the silver-gray sedan seemed to have vanished into thin air, nowhere to be found.
Qin Yu was nearly driven mad, and she roared into the phone, “I don’t care how difficult this is. Even if it means checking every single silver-gray sedan in Beijiang one by one, I must find that car tonight!”
Qin Yu issued a do-or-die command.
Countless people began searching the streets.
Simultaneously, many were holding a photo of Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian, combing through the vast city of Beijiang over and over again.
While everyone was tirelessly searching for the two missing girls,
In an abandoned factory overrun with weeds on the outskirts of Beijiang City,
The vehicle slowly came to a stop.
“Two little beauties, we’re home now, please get out of the car!” Xu Jiaojiao said with a smile.
Xue Xiang and Xue Nian woke up from their drowsiness and habitually called out, “Thank you, Auntie!”
Then they prepared to get out of the car.
But when they saw the overgrown weeds outside, the two little girls couldn’t help but be startled.
“Where is this? This isn’t our home, is it?”
“Yes, this isn’t your previous home, but from now on, it might very well be!” Xu Jiaojiao said indifferently.
What do you think?
