Chapter 1226: Locking onto the Target

Su Zhiyu used money to bribe Liu Zhan for no other purpose than two goals.

First, if spending money was effective, buying peace with money was the best.

Second, if spending money was ineffective, she could at least determine Liu Zhan's situation through dialogue.

Now, Su Zhiyu had extracted several key clues from Liu Zhan's mouth through a set of conversational tactics she had designed.

"First, if an ordinary person heard a girl in her early twenties talking about tens of millions or one hundred million, they definitely wouldn't believe her and would only think she was talking nonsense. However, Liu Zhan didn't doubt that I could come up with fifty million, eighty million, or even one hundred million!"

"This means he knows my identity! He knows that for me, one hundred million is very easy, so he doesn't doubt what I said at all!"

"From this point, combined with Liu Zhan's previous behavior of talking on the phone and sending messages, it can be seen that Liu Zhan must have been instructed by someone to kidnap my mother and me!"

"Second, a person like Liu Zhan couldn't possibly be a good person who keeps his word. I said I was willing to give him one hundred million. He could choose to take my money and betray his original employer, or even choose to take my money and then turn against me. With a desperate criminal like him, it's impossible he wouldn't consider these two ways to get money."

"However, Liu Zhan didn't consider these two ways at all. This proves that the original employer behind him is someone he absolutely dares not offend!"

"Then, who exactly bought him off, let him stage such a big play, just to kidnap my mother and me?"

Thinking of this, Su Zhiyu had no answer at all in her heart.

She had also thought about whether it was Grandpa who was dissatisfied with Mom, so he wanted to clean up the family.

However, based on her understanding of Su Lao, she felt that Su Lao wouldn't have murderous intentions toward her as well.

She also thought about whether it was Dad who was unhappy with Mom, but this was the same as the previous speculation. Whether it was her dad or her grandpa, they both had reasons to take action against her mom, but she felt they had no possibility of taking action against her.

Therefore, Su Zhiyu also led herself into a dead end.

Immediately after, she thought again: "Could it be that Dad or Grandpa was the mastermind behind the scenes, letting Liu Zhan kidnap my mother and me, but actually only prepared to harm Mom?"

Thinking of this, Su Zhiyu suddenly became incomparably nervous, thinking to herself: "If this is really the case, then when Liu Zhan reveals his true colors, I must protect Mom with my life!"

While Su Zhiyu made the decision to protect Du Haiqing with her life, deep in her heart, she was also filled with anger and despair toward the Su family.

She couldn't understand why the Su family would be so heartless toward her mom.

What she couldn't understand even more was that this matter was clearly Dad's fault first, so why take such a ruthless hand against Mom?

Could it be just because Mom came to Jin Ling this time?

At this time, Du Haiqing had also guessed the whole story of the matter.

Deep in her heart, she had the same question: "Su Shoudao can have an illegitimate daughter behind my back, and even unscrupulously bring the illegitimate daughter to his side, while I have never betrayed him in all the years I've been married, and now I just want to divorce him. Does that mean he was right and I was wrong?"

And at this time, Liu Zhan didn't realize that he had accidentally leaked the secret. He was just hoping that the tunnel on the map would arrive early, allowing him to solve all this.

At the same time, a helicopter had left the city and was speeding toward the mountainous area in the suburbs of Jin Ling.

On the plane, Chen Zekai was reporting to Ye Chen: "Young Master, the straight-line distance to the target is still ten kilometers. Given that their car can only take curves in the mountains, we should be able to catch up very soon."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "I have one more question I can't figure out."

Chen Zekai hurriedly asked, "Young Master, what is the question?"

Ye Chen said, "I don't understand what kind of escape route Liu Zhan left for himself. He caused such a big commotion. I believe that although no police are chasing him now, every intersection ahead should already have police ambushes. No matter how expensive the Rolls-Royce he drives is, it's just a car. Under such circumstances, even if he had wings, it would be hard to escape."

"Yes." Chen Zekai nodded and agreed, "Perhaps this Liu Zhan didn't think about escaping at all. He is already an A-level wanted criminal. If caught, he will definitely not escape death. So it's better to live out his own life and earn a settlement fee from the Su family for his wife and children."

Ye Chen smacked his lips: "So you mean this Liu Zhan has already made up his mind to die and didn't prepare to escape alive at all, right?"

"Correct!" Chen Zekai said, "I think this possibility is the greatest."

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "If he really prepared to die, then he shouldn't have gone to such great lengths to stage such a play. He only needed to find an excuse and reason in the Treasure Pavilion to kill Du Haiqing as a hostage. Why bother to want a Rolls-Royce and run here without stopping?"

Chen Zekai thought for a moment: "Could it be to make the play complete?"

"No need, right?" Ye Chen said lightly, "Even if he's dead, what's the point of having so many plays before he dies? If he just wanted to confuse the public and not let everyone suspect the Su family, then in the Treasure Pavilion, if he had aimed his gun slightly off, he could have killed Du Haiqing. I think everyone wouldn't have suspected it either."

Chen Zekai then asked: "Young Master, then you mean Liu Zhan has a way to escape alive?"

Ye Chen sneered: "Whether Liu Zhan really has a way to escape alive, I can't be sure now. But what I can be sure of is that if the Su family promised him and helped him escape, then the Su family will definitely not leave him alive."

Chen Zekai hurriedly asked: "Young Master, if you say so, then the Su family must have prepared to take Liu Zhan's life!"

"Correct." Ye Chen nodded lightly and said, "I think judging by the Su family's style of doing things, they will definitely avoid long delays, so they will definitely solve Liu Zhan as soon as possible within a reasonable range."

Chen Zekai thought for a moment and said, "Then the place the Su family will choose should be on this mountain road with no exits."

Ye Chen gave a grunt and ordered: "Speed up, lock onto them as soon as possible!"

"Okay, Young Master!"

After the helicopter flew for a few more minutes, Chen Zekai pointed to a black sedan on the road diagonally ahead and said: "Young Master, locked onto that car! It's that black extended sedan below!"

Ye Chen looked down and indeed found Chen Zekai's Rolls-Royce.

However, because the plane was too high, that Rolls-Royce didn't even look as big as a fingernail.

At this time, Chen Zekai asked him: "Young Master, do you want us to lower the altitude and chase after them?"

Ye Chen waved his hand: "No need, to avoid alerting the enemy. Let's follow him from afar and observe first!" ===== CHAPTER 1227 =====
