Chapter 174 The Bo and He families join forces to rescue people
Upon hearing his boss's words, Zhang Quan immediately nodded with a serious expression.
Even when not in front of a real person, he subconsciously remained extremely respectful and dared not be at all casual.
"Understood! I'll arrange it right away."
After hanging up the phone, he immediately returned to his bungalow.
“Miss He, I think your families have prepared the ransom. I’m not afraid of them playing tricks. Anyway, you’re in my hands. I’ve said I only want money and I won’t do anything else.”
In front of He Yan and He Yiyi, Zhang Quan contacted the He family and the Bo family respectively.
After sending the message, he thoughtfully showed it to the two of them.
He Yan saw that he had marked the time and place of the transaction and had agreed to redeem the people separately.
She guessed that Zhang Quan must have spoken with the person behind the scenes.
They will definitely take this opportunity to do something.
"Did you make it clear that you wanted Bo Siheng to bring more money?"
He Yan deliberately interrupted and asked a question.
She needed to know how much of her suggestion Zhang Quan had listened to, and how he had spoken to his boss about it.
I wonder if, as she predicted, the mastermind behind the scenes will reveal himself.
"What I say is my business. Miss He Yan just needs to wait quietly."
Zhang Quan didn't want to say anything more, nor did he want He Yan to find out anything.
He glanced at the time on his phone and added, "Now it's just a matter of whether the He family or the Bo family arrives first. You might as well wait and see who leaves first."
He Yan narrowed her eyes and thought carefully about what Zhang Quan had said.
He must have received instructions from the boss behind the scenes.
In other words, asking the He and Bo families to pay the ransom was actually a scam.
He Yan was a little worried; Zhang Quan must have a trap.
You can tell from how cleanly, efficiently, and ruthlessly the man in the suit killed the head of the organization.
The other party has hired professional mercenary assassins, so there will definitely be danger when paying the ransom.
However, He Yan trusted Bo Siheng; he would definitely be prepared.
He Yiyi suddenly ran over from the corner.
He shoved a shard of glass he had picked up into He Yan's hand.
"Sister, do you have any way to escape? Zhang Quan definitely won't hand us over. Rather than being killed by him, we should try to escape. I found a piece of glass. Quickly cut the ropes binding your hands."
He Yan was always wary of He Yiyi, and would immediately dodge away when she saw her approaching.
"He Yiyi, can't you understand human language? I said I won't run away."
She never let go of her suspicions about He Yiyi.
Her seemingly innocent actions only made her appear more deliberate.
"Sister, stop being silly! You have to run away so we can have a chance to live!"
Despite her own discomfort, He Yiyi still forcibly untied He Yan.
This led to the two of them pushing and shoving each other, causing a commotion.
Zhang Quan suddenly walked back and shouted as soon as he saw the two of them.
"What are you doing!"
He saw that the two women's hands were clasped together behind their backs. He Yiyi's expression was flustered, as if she was trying to help He Yan untie the ropes. However, her actions could easily put herself in danger.
He Yan's eyes turned cold, and she quickly guessed He Yiyi's motive.
She twisted her middle finger and put on the ring, and the sprang-out blade accurately cut He Yiyi's rope.
And they even took the opportunity to push her out.
"what!"
He Yiyi lost her balance and was about to fall.
She instinctively braced herself with her hands, afraid of falling and getting hurt.
"you……"
Zhang Quan was dumbfounded to see that He Yiyi wasn't tied up.
"Zhang Quan, why are you treating people differently?"
He Yan also deliberately showed an incredulous expression, as if she had realized that she had been deceived.
Before either of them could react, she began to question them.
"How come I was really tied up, but she was just pretending?"
The situation is now clear: he is the one who is behaving himself, while He Yiyi is trying to escape.
Only in this way can the relationship between the two be tested.
"Sister, you are not afraid of death, but I am! I am even more afraid of not being able to repay Mom and Dad."
He Yiyi's eyes widened in panic, and she immediately scrambled to her feet to escape.
Zhang Quan was so shocked that he forgot to react, but at this moment he seemed to suddenly come back to his senses.
He grabbed He Yiyi's hair and twisted her hands behind her back.
"He Yiyi, you dare to run away? I told you to wait patiently for the ransom, but you didn't. Don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Sister, I created such a great opportunity, why didn't you run away?"
He Yan looked terrified, yet also resentful.
The expression in her eyes seemed to be one of surprise and disappointment.
Other henchmen also rushed in, each looking fierce and menacing.
"Brother Quan, are they trying to escape?!"
They were all stunned to see He Yan still tied up and standing there.
Then, they also directed their anger at He Yiyi.
"Dare to run away? Brother Quan, you have to teach her a lesson!"
He Yan didn't say anything.
She simply watched the scene unfold before her with cold indifference.
Whether it was He Yiyi's reaction, Zhang Quan's reaction, or even the two henchmen who came in later, they all seemed to be awkwardly cooperating when they realized that things were not as expected.
He Yan suddenly realized that He Yiyi was clearly aware of the situation.
So it seems that the target of the kidnapping was actually himself.
He Yiyi's appearance and unexpected kidnapping were merely to make things more plausible.
He Yan immediately turned on the communication function on her watch.
Her watch had a miniature computer embedded in it.
After connecting to Zhang Quan's phone, they can contact Bo Siheng.
"Zhang Quan, I will stay here quietly and wait for the Bo family to come and pay the money. I want to leave here safely."
Zhang Quan was about to take He Yiyi out when he heard this and suddenly turned around.
He looked at He Yan for a while, and his smile suddenly became a little strange.
"Miss He will definitely leave safely."
"Okay, then I'll wait."
He Yan's eyes were firm, and her expression was calm with a slight smile.
She knew her attempt to turn him into a traitor had failed, and that Zhang Quan and his men behind the scenes would definitely try to kill her through an 'accident'.
It was still uncertain who would emerge victorious, so she didn't expose them and pretended not to know.
……
the other side.
Bo Siheng was sitting in the car waiting when he suddenly received a strange message on his phone.
A strange string of code, plus a recording of somewhat noisy audio.
It was just a conversation between He Yan and Zhang Quan.
He frowned and listened intently, realizing that He Yan was in danger.
“Send me a message right away: ‘Don’t be afraid, I’m here.’ Then translate it into Morse code that she can understand. I need to put Xiaoyan’s mind at ease.”
Because the location sent by He Yan was only a general area, it was impossible to pinpoint the exact location.
Moreover, Danfeng Mountain is very large, and signal interference is severe there.
They face the possibility of losing contact at any time, which would make things even more difficult to control.
"Mr. Bo, the signal has been sent to your phone."
The hacker subordinate beside him quickly wrote the message, which Bo Siheng immediately sent to He Yan.
The message was sent but received no response, as if it had sunk without a trace.
Bo Siheng's eyes held worry, and he guessed that He Yan was unable to respond at the moment.
Yu Cheng called at that moment.
He and his men were stationed near the highway entrance in advance.
"Master Bo, I've got my men in position. As long as Zhang Quan shows up, he definitely won't be able to escape."
"Pay attention to concealment."
After giving his instructions, Bo Siheng could only wait.
At this moment, He Yunyi also called to contact them.
They specifically hired a group of excellent bodyguards to rescue the people.
"Mr. Bo, we've arrived at our location, at an abandoned railway crossing."
The two parties were notified of completely different locations for the transaction.
Bo Siheng also guessed that the other party was not making a real deal, but he didn't say it.
Fearing that Master Bo would be angry, He Yunyi quickly added more.
"We brought enough ransom for two people; we will absolutely not abandon anyone!"
Now we're just waiting for them to show up.
