Chapter 380: The Kidnapping Saga (Part 2)

On the other side, inside Sang Qing's villa.

A group of people were sitting in the villa's living room watching a video.

The video was playing a blood-covered Sang Qing saying loudly: "Wife, within three days, you must... get ten million! Don't use thousand-dollar bills, use five-hundreds as the largest denomination, and don't call the police! They will contact you, don't you dare play them! They will kill me!"

"Give it to them, give it to them! Money is just an external possession! Just give it to them!"

The video finished playing quickly, and Longshu, the sitting head of Helihe, along with several Zhafits, all cast their gazes toward a bag next to the videotape.

Inside the bag was a blood-drenched hand; it was quite obvious that this thing belonged to Sang Qing.

Sang Qing's wife said with a mournful face: "Everyone, what should I do now?"

"Who has a way to handle this? People from Xinji, Hetu, and Heliansheng have all been kidnapped before. I received news that even after paying over ten million, the people were still not released! In the end, they found that Zhafit's corpse by the seaside!" A Helihe Zhafit said with an ugly expression: "These people are lunatics!"

Hearing this Zhafit's words, Sang Qing's wife became even more terrified and said to Longshu: "Longshu, you must make the decision for me! As long as A Qing can be saved, anything will do!"

Longshu was also having a massive headache right now. When they held the meeting at You Guqi that day, although Hongxing had already promised the various societies that they would help investigate this matter.

But an investigation still needs time, right? Even if Hongxing's people were incredibly capable, Longshu didn't think it was likely they could find the person within three days!

So he could only sigh and say to Sang Qing's wife: "Sister-in-law Qing, I will do my best!"

"Then it all depends on you, Longshu!" Sang Qing's wife said while sobbing.

Longshu stood up and said: "You should get some good rest first; we will be heading back now."

Saying this, Longshu took his people and left Sang Qing's home, finding a place to prepare for a meeting.

Meanwhile, in a certain residential unit in Sham Shui Po.

Sang Qing was locked inside the bathroom.

At this moment, Sang Qing had long since lost his previous arrogant and domineering appearance.

His leg had been shot through by a bullet, and one of his hands had been chopped off; the whole man was trembling in pain.

Not knowing how much time had passed, a young man walked in carrying a box of white rice.

Following that, the leader of the fake traffic police from that day also walked in: "Eat!"

This man was named He Zhansen, a former Commander of the Flying Tigers.

Because of a failed operation, the entire team was used as scapegoats by their Gweilo superiors.

A group of people who were originally extremely righteous all became blackened in the environment of the prison.

Especially He Zhansen, who served as Captain; he felt that he was the one who harmed his brothers.

So after getting out, he used his own methods to uphold justice, while incidentally making some operating funds.

The young man helped Sang Qing remove the cloth strip stuffed in his mouth, and Sang Qing immediately said: "Brother... after you receive the money, you must keep your word!"

He Zhansen said indifferently: "Let's talk about that after we get it!"

Sang Qing stared at He Zhansen carefully for a moment, then asked: "Have we met somewhere before?"

At this moment, the young man interrupted Sang Qing's words and said coldly: "Eat, if you don't eat, I'm taking it away!"

Sang Qing, who had been hungry for several days, shut his mouth and began to wolf down the bowl of white rice in front of him.

Having eaten fancy food until he vomited, Sang Qing had never felt that white rice could taste this good.

After the feeding was done, before Sang Qing could make a sound, the subordinates stuffed his mouth shut again.

He Zhansen called everyone over for a meeting.

"Boss, I feel like we've been targeted!" one of the young men said with a frown: "I've felt like someone has been following us for a while now, but we haven't been able to find anyone! This isn't something ordinary street thugs could do!"

He Zhansen nodded and said: "It is indeed not ordinary people; that Big Boss of Hongxing, Chen Jiajun, has made a move!"

"Chen Jiajun? Didn't he wash his hands of the underworld?" someone asked curiously: "Why is he still getting involved in this matter?"

He Zhansen said indifferently: "I don't know the specific details, but just a few days ago, at You Guqi Restaurant, all the bosses of the Hong Kong societies hosted a banquet for Chen Jiajun! I reckon they reached some kind of deal with Chen Jiajun!"

At this time, a young man said with a serious expression: "Hongxing's people are not ordinary; should we avoid them?"

He Zhansen nodded: "Hongxing is indeed different from ordinary street thugs, so after this job last night, we will go to Europe to hide for a while!"

Hearing He Zhansen nod in agreement, the others didn't have much else to say.

Subsequently, He Zhansen began to arrange the upcoming work.

Handing over the ransom is also an important matter; if he guessed correctly, Sang Qing's wife should have already called the police by now.

……

"Boss, we've found them!" A member of the Information Department brought the files to find Chen Jiajun, who was eating at home.

Chen Jiajun nodded: "Have you eaten? If not, come over and eat together!"

The member of the Information Department shook his head: "I already ate on the way; I'll go to the living room and wait for you!"

Chen Jiajun focused on the delicious food in front of him, and after he finished eating, Guan Jiahui brought tea for the two of them.

After taking a sip of tea, Chen Jiajun then asked: "What is the other side's background?"

"Former Flying Tigers Commander He Zhansen, plus his team members: sniper A Ying, intelligence team members A Biao and A Hui, and He Zhansen's girlfriend A Shan—five people in total!" The Information Department member said with a smile: "They really do match the configuration of a small squad!"

"Except for A Shan, these people all came out of the Flying Tigers; they even spent two years in prison back then to take the fall for the Gweilo."

Chen Jiajun said irritably: "I knew it had something to do with the Gweilo! Can we find them now?"

The Information Department member shook his head: "The other side is very alert. Several times we followed their people, but we were afraid of being exposed, so they ran off! I estimate that the other side has already sensed our presence! They might just run away after finishing this job!"

Chen Jiajun tapped his fingers on the table, then said to the Information Department member: "Find a way to let me contact that He Zhansen; I intend to have a chat with him! Any problems?"

The Information Department member immediately said: "Contacting them isn't a big problem, but Boss, are you planning to recruit these people?"

Chen Jiajun shook his head: "No need, I just think they are very suitable for the Killer Foundation! After all, in this society, there are really too few people who hate evil as much as they do."

"Ha, street thugs doing good deeds, killers doing good deeds—I don't even know what the Hong Kong Police are doing now!" the Information Department member mocked.

He was also from Hong Kong and knew what kind of state Hong Kong's public security was in right now.

Cursing the current Hong Kong Police Force twice really wasn't excessive at all.

Chen Jiajun shook his head: "Those who are not of our race will surely have different hearts! As long as the Gweilo still control the Hong Kong Police Force for a single day, Hong Kong's public security will never get better!"

The next day, He Zhansen and the others demanded a ransom from Sang Qing's wife.

Having already been monitoring Sang Qing's wife, He Zhansen's gang had long known that Wo Shing Wo had called the police.

They had also observed that the Serious Crimes Unit was already guarding the area around Sang Qing's wife's home.

So, they made a phone call directly.

Upon hearing the kidnapper's call, the Serious Crimes Unit members immediately whispered to Sang Qing's wife to stall for time, so they could have a window to trace the call.

Sang Qing's wife answered the phone and heard a woman's voice: "Hello, is this Mrs. Sang? We have your husband, don't be nervous! Is your mobile number XXX?"

Sang Qing's wife nodded and said, "Yes!"

"Take your phone and go out; I will tell you what to do!" the other party said directly.

Following the police's instructions, Sang Qing's wife intended to stall: "I want to speak to A Qing..."

"Your house is full of police, just come out first!" After saying this, she ignored Sang Qing's wife and hung up the phone.

"Hello? Hello!" Hearing the busy signal, Sang Qing's wife could only look helplessly at the few police officers from the Serious Crimes Unit.

They had been on the verge of tracing the signal, but the other party was extremely vigilant and did not give them the chance.

Generally, it takes about thirty seconds to trace a phone signal, but the other party hung up in just over twenty seconds.

The female Inspector in charge of the case, Gu Guoqiang, said helplessly: "The other party is very familiar with our monitoring procedures! They were counting the time too!"

Sang Qing's wife said with a mournful face: "Then what should I do now? Will they abuse my husband?"

Gu Guoqiang pondered for a moment, then said to Sang Qing's wife: "Mrs. Sang, just do as they say; our police will send people to protect you in secret!"

Helpless, Mrs. Sang had no choice but to follow the instructions and bring the money to the downtown area.

The area was densely populated, making it impossible to monitor mobile signals.

A moment later, Mrs. Sang's phone rang again, and it was the same woman's voice as before: "Is the ten million ready?"

"It's already prepared!" Mrs. Sang said immediately.

But the other party said coldly: "Go find another ten million, because you are untrustworthy and called the police!"

Mrs. Sang was stunned on the spot and said with a sobbing tone: "Where would I get that much money?"

"Heh, your husband told us everything; you have three properties and nearly thirty million in cash. The money from selling ecstasy is really easy to make!" The other party sneered and said: "I will call you in three days. Remember, if you want to see your husband return alive, you must shake off the police; otherwise, don't even think about seeing your husband next time!"

The CIB personnel searched the vicinity for a long time but found no suspicious individuals, so they had to give up.

Unable to find anyone, they could only wait for He Zhansen's team to call again.

On a certain pedestrian bridge, He Zhansen smiled at A Shan and said: "It seems Sang Qing's wife is a person without much of an opinion. If it were someone else, I reckon it would be difficult for us to get the money."

Just as A Shan was about to say something, she suddenly saw a few people approaching them out of the corner of her eye and immediately alerted He Zhansen: "A Sen, someone is coming."

As a commander of the Flying Tigers, with A Shan's warning, He Zhansen quickly realized that things were not looking good.

He immediately reached for the handgun at his waist without changing his expression, then protected his girlfriend A Shan behind him.

"No need to be so nervous, Inspector He, we don't intend to do anything to you and your girlfriend." The man in the black suit leading them spread his hands from a distance to show he had no malice.

He Zhansen looked at the black-suited men blocking all his escape routes and did not relax his vigilance at all: "Who are you people?"

"Killer Foundation, I wonder if you've heard of it?" The man in the black suit smiled and said: "I am the current person in charge of the Killer Foundation; you can call me E Lao!"

He Zhansen was stunned on the spot upon hearing this name: "You are that agent for Chitian Shi?"

"That's right!" E Lao smiled and said: "Interested in having a chat? I am very interested in what you all have been doing lately!"

He Zhansen said coldly: "Why should I trust you?"

"If I wanted to make a move on you, you'd probably be dead by now, right?" E Lao said with an indifferent expression: "Is that not enough sincerity? I don't mean anything else, I just want to chat with you! If possible, I will have my people disperse immediately!"

He Zhansen looked at his girlfriend behind him, nodded, and said: "Fine! What do you want to talk about?"

E Lao looked at the noisy environment around them and smiled: "Let's go somewhere else! I know a coffee shop nearby with very good coffee; why don't we go there and talk?"

"Lead the way!" He Zhansen didn't say much and nodded in agreement.

E Lao smiled, then had his men disperse, and he led He Zhansen and his girlfriend A Shan to a nearby coffee shop.

After both sides sat down, E Lao said calmly: "You've caused quite a stir lately, forcing these triad bosses to go seek cooperation with Hung Hing. You should know about this, right?"

E Lao did not mention his relationship with Chen Jiajun, as that was what Chen Jiajun had requested.

Aside from providing the initial capital, the Killer Foundation operated completely independently under Chen Jiajun.

It had no connection to Hung Hing, nor did it have any connection to Guojun Group.

The person responsible for operations on the surface was E Lao.

He Zhansen nodded and said: "Of course I know. We plan to leave Hong Kong after finishing this job."

E Lao shook his head with a smile: "I'm afraid you won't be able to finish this job. Do you think only the police are watching Sang Qing's wife? That's all a diversion; in fact, the Dragon Head of Wo Shing Wo, A Long, has already secretly contacted Hung Hing!"

"As long as you dare to show your face to collect the ransom, I guarantee you won't be able to escape! I know you are from the Flying Tigers and are all very arrogant, but I think it's best you don't test Hung Hing's strength."

He Zhansen raised an eyebrow and said to E Lao: "Would even Chitian Shi not dare to provoke people from Hung Hing?"

E Lao smiled and held up a finger: "First, we are all from Hong Kong. On Hong Kong soil, I advise you not to have any conflict with Hung Hing. Of course, whether you believe it or not is your business!"

"Second, we have no conflict with Hung Hing. The various Zhafit of Hung Hing have all turned to legitimate businesses, and we don't want to, nor is it necessary to, go against Hung Hing!"

"Third, you are right; our foundation is indeed no match for Hung Hing and Guojun Group!"

Hearing E Lao admit it so frankly, He Zhansen seemed somewhat surprised.

But thinking about it carefully, it made sense; after all, Chen Jiajun was able to wipe out all the CIA's contact points overnight, and that alone was enough to be terrifying.

He Zhansen said to E Lao: "So, what does this have to do with you coming to find me!"

E Lao smiled and said: "Of course it has to do with it, because... I want to invite you to join our Killer Foundation!"

"Join you?" E Lao's words made He Zhansen appear very surprised: "Isn't having Chitian Shi enough for you?"

In He Zhansen's view, Chitian Shi being able to pull off so many things single-handedly was clearly no ordinary person; with such an ace killer, why would they need anyone else?

E Lao smiled and said: "Of course it's not enough. Do you know why we founded this Killer Foundation? It's to counter those bad guys who can escape legal sanctions."

"Since the law cannot sanction them, then we will! What do you think? Is it right up your alley?"

It must be said that E Lao's words truly moved He Zhansen.

Because the two sides' philosophies were extremely close!

As the former Captain of the Flying Tigers, would He Zhansen be unable to find a good job if he applied to a Security Company? Why would he have to come out and kidnap people for money?

It was simply because he could not swallow this grievance!

The reason he turned to the dark side was not only because they had been treated unfairly, but also because of his younger brother.

A young man full of justice was killed by these gangsters, and in the end, they couldn't even be convicted?

If the law could not convict these gangsters, he would do it himself!

However, although He Zhansen was somewhat tempted, he still said to E Lao: "You are a killer organization; how do I know if you won't kill people for profit?"

E Lao laughed and said quite proudly: "Because we have Chitian Shi!" (End of chapter)
