Chapter 654: A Letter of Intimidation, Tiantian's Whereabouts
Upstairs in the study—
Li Xiao also received a call from his subordinate.
"Shura, we saw someone approach the villa just now; they simply rang the doorbell, dropped a box at the entrance, and left."
"A box? What is inside it?"
Li Xiao hurriedly pressed for an answer.
The person on the other end replied: "We have already detained the person and questioned them. The other party said they were paid to deliver the item. The box is extremely light, as if there is nothing inside at all."
"Extremely light?"
Li Xiao frowned slightly, ruling out the possibility that it contained dangerous items.
"I will go down and take a look. Once I confirm what is inside, I will tell you whether to release them or not." After saying this, he hung up the phone directly and walked downstairs with Li Beijue.
At the door, Cai Xiaotang hesitated about whether to open it.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard the sound of someone walking down from upstairs.
"Li..."
Cai Xiaotang subconsciously wanted to call out to Li Xiao, but the words took a turn as they reached her lips, and she said to the person behind him: "Li Beijue, someone left a box outside the door just now."
"I know."
Li Beijue nodded, stepped forward, and pulled the door open.
At the entrance, that small box was still lying quietly on the carpet.
"What's wrong? Why are you all here?"
Jiang Baobao came out of the kitchen and saw the three of them gathered at the door, so she walked over, feeling puzzled.
Li Xiao had already tentatively kicked the box and, finding it was indeed very light, bent down to pick it up and closed the door again.
"What is this?" Jiang Baobao looked at the object in his hand, confused.
"I don't know either." Li Xiao's brows were tightly locked. He tentatively shook it gently and found that there really seemed to be nothing inside, only a rustling sound like paper.
"It seems to be... an envelope?"
Li Xiao frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and lifted the lid of the box slightly.
Sure enough—
An envelope was lying quietly inside.
Yet there was no signature written on it.
The few of them exchanged glances. Li Xiao tore open the envelope directly, and immediately, a small slip of paper and a small object fell out from inside.
Jiang Baobao subconsciously reached out to catch them, and the moment she pinched them in her hand, her whole body shuddered violently.
"This is Tiantian's hair clip!"
She looked at the flower-shaped clip in her hand, her eyes widening abruptly, filled with disbelief.
As she spoke, she hurriedly snatched the slip of paper from Li Xiao's hand, and after just one glance, her whole body suddenly went limp.
"Baobao!"
Li Beijue and Cai Xiaotang hurriedly caught her.
Li Xiao took back the slip of paper and finally saw clearly what was written on it.
【The little girl is quite nice; I will certainly treat her well.】
A short sentence, carrying a full sense of showing off and threat.
Li Xiao gripped the paper tightly in his palm, forcibly suppressing the anger in his eyes.
If Poison Snake dared to provoke him like this, it meant he was extremely confident in his own situation.
As long as he continued to let his guard down like this...
"Li Xiao..."
Jiang Baobao's somewhat weak voice suddenly came, interrupting Li Xiao's train of thought.
Jiang Baobao struggled to stand up and asked softly: "If you can determine Tiantian's location now, are you confident that you can charge in directly and snatch her back?"
Her lips were even paler than before, and she was clutching the small clip tightly in her hand, but her gaze was incomparably firm.
She couldn't wait any longer...
Rather than waiting for an opportunity like this, it would be better to find a chance to take the initiative!
"If we can determine it, we can try. Poison Snake hasn't shown his face much lately. This place is not like back home; here... there are other forces supporting him. I need some time to determine his specific location before making a plan."
"Okay..."
Jiang Baobao took a deep breath: "If you have news and a plan, this time I will go with you."
"You are going with us?"
Li Xiao was stunned upon hearing this.
"Baobao..."
Li Beijue was also taken aback.
"I'm not going to cause you trouble." Jiang Baobao shook her head: "If the place you are going to has surveillance, perhaps I can be of help."
"You..."
Li Xiao didn't react for a moment to what Jiang Baobao meant.
Jiang Baobao hesitated for two seconds before explaining: "I... know a little about this area. I didn't say anything before because I was afraid of disrupting your plans. Now that we intend to take the initiative, we must figure out the other party's movements, but you need to prepare a computer for me."
"Are you sure?"
Li Xiao was still a bit uneasy.
Li Beijue, however, suddenly thought of something and took hold of Jiang Baobao's hand.
Last time, when investigating the Lu Family warehouse, Baobao must have tampered with the surveillance in advance...
"She can do it."
Li Beijue spoke up suddenly, his tone steady and full of trust.
"Right! Baobao will have no problem!"
Cai Xiaotang echoed in agreement, winking at Jiang Baobao.
Seeing the three of them in agreement, Li Xiao had no choice but to consent: "Fine, once the news is confirmed, we will discuss the plan. If we can hack into the other side's surveillance, it will be easier for us to know where Tiantian is being held."
On the other side—
Tiantian was sitting in the room looking unhappy, holding a small hair clip that was missing one side.
"Still unhappy?"
Xiaoshi pushed the door open and saw the little girl with displeasure written all over her face; he hurriedly brought over the cake in his hands and placed it beside her.
"This is a cake I had someone specially make; try it and see if it's good."
Xiaoshi's tone was somewhat helpless.
The little girl, who usually loved snacks the most, did not pick up her fork right away, but instead said with dissatisfaction: "This is the little hair clip Mommy bought for me... Brother Shitou, why did your daddy have to snatch my hair clip?"
Xiaoshi paused slightly, already having a rough idea of the answer in his heart.
Following "Father's" style, taking the hair clip was likely to send it to Tiantian's parents to threaten them...
"Brother Shitou, why aren't you saying anything?"
The little girl's voice sounded again, and Xiaoshi hurriedly replied: "It's nothing, I was just thinking that in the future, I can buy you many little hair clips like this, so you won't be afraid of losing them..."
"In the future?"
Tiantian was stunned for a moment.
Xiaoshi also froze suddenly.
"If..." Tiantian suddenly reached out and tugged at the corner of Xiaoshi's clothes: "If Daddy and Mommy rescue me... will I still be able to see Brother Shitou in the future?"
Xiaoshi remained silent.
If Tiantian were really to be rescued, then her parents would certainly not let "Father" off.
When that time comes, what would happen to him?
Xiaoshi frowned slightly.
Tiantian also realized that something seemed wrong, and she suddenly pursed her little lips, looking as if she were thinking seriously.
If Daddy really comes to rescue her, he will definitely teach the bad guys a harsh lesson!
But Brother Shitou is not a bad guy!
It's just that his daddy is too bad!
When the time comes, she must tell Daddy and Mommy that Brother Shitou is a good person!
