Chapter 1755: Chapter 1755: Grabbed the Wrong Person

The wedding banquet had just ended, and Xiao Ye and his two brothers took a basketball from their mother’s car and left with a few cousins.

It was just the weekend, and they had planned in advance to play at a nearby court.

At this time, someone at the street corner spoke up from afar: "See that? The boy holding the ball is the one we need to take, along with the other two who look about the same. It’s best to take all three, but if that’s not workable, just take one."

"I’m heading over to start the car, waiting for you guys at the nearby intersection, so be swift."

After saying this, he turned and left.

Xiao Ye noticed there was a convenience store nearby and said, "Let’s go in and buy a few bottles of water to take with us, so we don’t have to come back out to buy it later."

Saying this, he handed the ball to his cousin Luo Pengze from his second uncle’s family: "Cousin, you guys go ahead and grab a spot, so we don’t miss out."

Then Luo Pengze, along with the Big Brother Luo Pengjing and Second Brother Luo Pengyuan, as well as two younger cousins Luo Pengyue and Luo Pengbin from his fourth uncle’s family, went ahead to secure a spot.

As they reached the street corner, they were ambushed. Although the kids had some skills, those blocking them were streetwise tough guys, and the kids were no match for them.

Their target was clear: they charged directly at Luo Pengze, who was holding the ball, and once he called out for Big Brother and Second Brother, it was clear they were after the three siblings.

After that, those people no longer paid attention to Luo Pengyue and Luo Pengbin and went straight for the three siblings. Without checking closely, they took Luo Pengze first and then captured Luo Pengjing and Luo Pengyuan as well.

Luo Pengyue and Luo Pengbin were stunned by the situation, but before they could make sense of it, the captors loaded the three into a nearby vehicle, leaving them with just the car’s license plate number.

They didn’t waste any time and rushed back to find Xiao Ye and the others: "Cousin, something bad happened. Second uncle’s three cousins were abducted."

Xiao Ye exchanged glances with the Big Brother and younger brother: "What’s happening? Explain in detail."

After listening, Xiao Ye said: "Don’t say anything further, we need to inform the family immediately. This seems premeditated."

The first person they notified was Lu Yichen, then they reached out to second uncle Luo Xuyuan, followed by a call to Luo Qiao, who had already heard from Lu Yichen.

Everyone sprang into action quickly, reassuring themselves temporarily about the safety of the three boys, thinking the kidnappers would surely contact their families.

Luo Xuyuan was somewhat calm, but Xiao Ya was not. She appeared flustered, her eyes reddened, constantly worrying about the kids getting hurt.

Luo Qiao and a few siblings quickly gathered at second brother’s house, speculating whether Luo Xuyuan had offended someone, leading that person to take revenge on the children.

They mulled over the words from the kids repeatedly, and after a few rounds, Lu Yichen spoke: "I find some points suspicious here. Pengyue mentioned that those people seemed to have a clear target, initially going for Pengze."

But after Pengze called for Big Brother and Second Brother, when Pengjing and Pengyuan ran towards him, those people ignored Pengyue and Pengbin and directly went for Pengjing and Pengyuan.

This suggests they were going for the three brothers, but Pengbin previously mentioned that those people said they should first grab the one holding the basketball. Parsing their words, they seemed focused on the person holding the ball, which was passed to Pengze during the water buying moment."

Could this mean they didn’t actually know who they were supposed to capture but assumed they should go for the three brothers, and their main target was the one holding the basketball? This could imply their real target today was Xiao Ye’s three brothers."

Xiao Ye interjected: "When we stopped to buy water, there were people standing at the front of the road. After I looked their way, they turned and left."

Xiao Yu added softly: "Going by this, they could be Dad’s enemies seeking revenge, intending to capture us three brothers, but they didn’t recognize us correctly. Combining with the ball mix-up, they mistook our cousins for us?"
