Chapter 594: Fat, so he doesn't look like a cop?

Yu Dazhang heard every word of it perfectly clearly.

With his hearing, he didn't need any surveillance equipment at all.

Hearing that the other party wanted to talk to a police officer, he wasn't surprised in the slightest.

Yesterday the police had searched their entire village, going door to door to inquire — with such a big operation, they would surely have gotten wind of it.

After all, this was the place they'd grown up in; someone tipping them off wasn't strange at all.

Bai Jincheng's mother, hearing the other party's request, immediately agreed:

"All right, hold on a moment."

Saying so, she handed the phone to Yu Dazhang.

Taking the phone and holding it to his ear, Yu Dazhang said calmly:

"What do you want? Go ahead and say it."

The only thing that struck him as off now was why the other party was trying to disguise their original voice.

Since they knew the police had been to their village, they should have known their identities were already exposed.

Using a voice changer to mask their voice on top of that — wasn't that just unnecessary?

"I trust you've already seen the contents of the disc."

The electronically synthesized voice rang out again, cold as ice:

"If you don't want the hostages in danger, find someone to put the money from both families into one car."

"The person escorting the car can't be a police officer. In one hour, I'll call back and tell you what to do next."

Before Yu Dazhang could even speak, the other end hung up directly.

Just say what you want to do, then… Yu Dazhang grumbled inwardly.

It seemed every brainy kidnapper followed the same routine.

If they didn't play some little trick, it was as if they couldn't show off how clever they were.

Just as he was about to contact his master, Lu Zhongxin's call came in first.

"The kidnappers just contacted the Su family. They want us to find a car and put the money from both families together into one vehicle."

He spoke quickly:

"They also demanded that the person escorting the car can't be a police officer."

The other side called the Su family first… Yu Dazhang immediately reached a conclusion.

They called both families, yet didn't ask whether the money was ready.

It seemed the other party wasn't worried about the money at all.

"I'll come find you."

Yu Dazhang thought for a moment, then said:

"Use my off-road vehicle to haul the money over — it'll be safer that way."

For now, they could only follow the other party's demands.

Besides, as the apprentice, it was naturally up to him to take on this errand.

Someone from the Su family helped, and together with Yu Dazhang carried the money to his off-road vehicle.

It was Yu Dazhang's first time carrying so much money — he didn't know if it was psychological, but although the bundle was heavy, he didn't feel it was all that strenuous.

The Bai couple also came along with him to the Su family.

Once master and apprentice met, they immediately reported the case to Wei Qian.

"The person to escort the car isn't easy to find."

Wei Qian looked quite troubled — clearly he hadn't yet settled on a suitable candidate.

The person escorting the car had to be quick-witted, and also couldn't have their identity exposed.

The other party had explicitly demanded that a police officer not escort the car; if they saw through the person's identity, the hostages could very well be in danger.

"I think Zhang Sen from the Second Brigade can handle this assignment."

Yu Dazhang suggested:

"In our bureau, when it comes to disguise and concealment, no one can beat him. And when it comes to pursuit, his speed is the fastest in the bureau too."

Wei Qian listened, then nodded thoughtfully.

One had to remember, Zhang Sen's old nickname was Little Cheetah.

Although no one had called him that for a long time, undeniably, when it came to speed, he was still number one in the whole bureau.
