Chapter 436: Chapter 436
In the surveillance feed, the man was seen carrying the child into a gray van parked opposite the hotel. The van quickly left the hotel’s surveillance area.
Mrs. Jiang said anxiously, "What should we do? Call the police quickly; Xiao Ya is so young."
Just then, Li Shan, who had gone back to fetch his laptop, returned. Wan Chu’er immediately opened the laptop and without concern for Father Jiang’s presence, quickly accessed Beijing’s city traffic monitoring system to search for that van.
Li Shan calmed Mao Xiaoyu down and then put on his headset and left the hotel again.
Thereafter, Wan Chu’er coordinated from the hotel, while Li Shan pursued by car. The two worked together in perfect sync.
"Brother Lishan, Tian Ning Road."
"Turn left at the next intersection."
"Walk forward for a hundred meters, there’s a small road on the right hand side. It’s a short cut."
Wan Chu’er kept her eyes firmly on the van’s location while calmly directing Li Shan toward the target.
After watching for a while, Father Jiang took his wife and left the room, acknowledging his daughter-in-law had some skills.
Once outside, Father Jiang said, "Don’t tell anyone about this."
Mrs. Jiang nodded, aware of the gravity of the situation. She worriedly asked, "Can Chuanqi catch up? That child must be crying her throat hoarse by now."
She couldn’t help cursing the kidnapper, "These people are too heartless and vicious. If caught, we must not let the person off easily!"
Father Jiang patted her shoulder, "Don’t worry. You go watch Xiao Zhuo with the Chen Family’s Little Hunter. We can’t have anything else happen to Xiao Zhuo. I’ll go and speak to the police."
"Alright, you go quickly, we must find the child fast." Mrs. Jiang said anxiously.
In the room, Wan Chu’er struggled to stay calm, eyes glued to the screen tracking the van.
Suddenly, the van entered a large building and disappeared from view.
Wan Chu’er slammed the table and hurriedly relayed the building’s address to Li Shan, then she immediately pulled up information about the building.
It was one of Beijing’s large shopping malls. The first five floors were retail space, and the upper levels were office space. The daily human traffic was immense. Besides the entrance and exit, the underground parking had basically no surveillance cameras. There were eight exits from the building’s parking lot. Nearly every minute, vehicles were coming in and out, which significantly increased the difficulty.
After finding the information, Wan Chu’er quickly called Jiang Kechu, but his phone was completely unreachable.
Wan Chu’er became anxious for a moment, feeling as if there was nothing she could do right then.
She wanted to rush to that building, but knew that staying here would be more effective. She couldn’t help but wonder worriedly how Little Zhuanqi was doing now.
Caught in this situation out of the blue, Little Zhuanqi must be terrified, and she didn’t know if the child would be hit when crying.
Just the thought of her delicate daughter being hit by a villain caused Wan Chu’er’s heart to wrench.
Who on earth committed this act?!
If she found out who the person behind the curtains was, she certainly wouldn’t let them off.
Wan Chu’er kept a watchful eye on the vehicles at each exit, while her mind raced with thoughts, anxiously waiting for news from Li Shan.
It felt like a very long time had passed when Li Shan finally spoke again.
"I found the van in a corner of the underground parking lot, but it’s empty. I found some flowers from Zhuanqi’s clothes on it."
"What?!" Upon hearing that Chuanqi’s flower was found on his clothes, Wan Chu’er couldn’t help thinking that it might have been torn off by the bad guys while Chuanqi was struggling. Was Chuanqi hurt?
There was silence again from Lishan’s end. Wan Chu’er tried her best to suppress the fear and restlessness in her heart and replayed the footage of vehicles departing from various exits during this period, examining each of them carefully.
After a while, Lishan’s voice came again, "Check for the XX model high-performance SUV. The tire tread pattern is asymmetrical."
Wan Chu’er, as if seeing a guiding light in the endless fog, immediately searched for the corresponding vehicle.
She looked through one vehicle after another, her palms sweaty and her hands trembling uncontrollably.
"Found it! It left through Exit E, a black XX, license plate NG456!" Wan Chu’er was so excited she almost jumped up.
After some effort, she finally located the vehicle on a main road in the west of the city.
Huh, why does the surrounding environment seem more and more familiar?
Wan Chu’er zoomed in on the satellite map and took a closer look, only to find it was near Jinseyuan, and then the vehicle also entered Jinseyuan.
"Bang!" Wan Chu’er angrily slapped the table.
At this moment, what else was there to misunderstand? It was all Yuan Mei Qin and her son Chen Jiahua’s doing!
After telling Lishan on the phone, Wan Chu’er quickly packed up her computer and hurriedly left.
Mrs. Jiang was holding Hunter, pacifying him as he eyes were red, continuously murmuring "sister, sister..."
Despite being so young, Little Hunter could still understand that his sister, who was inseparable from him every day, was gone and felt something was wrong.
Wan Chu’er’s heart ached. She hugged Hunter and said, "Mommy will go and bring sister back right now."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Jiang immediately asked, "Did you find Xiao Ya?"
Wan Chu’er nodded gravely, "I’ve got a lead. I’m heading there now." She then spoke to Father Jiang, "Dad, you and mom take Hunter back to the compound first. As soon as we find Little Chuanqi, we’ll return to the compound."
Father Jiang nodded and said, "Go ahead, be careful on the road."
So, Wan Chu’er didn’t delay any further; she got in her car and sped towards Jinse Garden. However, she had only driven a couple of kilometers when Lishan called.
"They’ve taken the child and gone to the airport."
Wan Chu’er immediately made a sharp turn and headed towards the airport.
Was Yuan Mei Qin planning to take the child out of the country?
If that was the case, it meant Yuan Mei Qin had everything planned in advance and had prepared fake documents for Little Chuanqi since children need identification to board planes.
Wan Chu’er was even more furious. This time, she was determined to lock up this mother and son duo in prison and have Yuan Mei Qin die there!
Approaching the airport, Jiang Kechu also called.
"Security check, west section."
Arriving at the departure hall entrance of the airport, Wan Chu’er abandoned her car and dashed inside. She finally saw Little Chuanqi in front of the security check, held by Jiang Kechu, while Lishan confronted Yuan Mei Qin and her son Chen Jiahua, preventing them from going through security, flanked by two airport security officers.
"Chuchu," Jiang Kechu called out upon seeing Wan Chu’er.
As soon as Little Chuanqi heard his mother’s name, he turned his head, and the moment his round eyes saw her, he began to wail as if he had suffered the greatest injustice.
Wan Chu’er felt both heartbroken and furious. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs NoveI[F]ire.net
She rushed to them, and before anyone could react, she slapped Chen Jiahua’s face with a resounding "smack!" "smack!" twice without hesitation.
