1818. Chapter one thousand eight hundred and eighteen the kidnapper calls
A large plate of roasted lamb was quickly eaten up by Lin Chong, and he was still a little unfulfilled.
But he knew the principle of stopping at the right time and rejected Wu Taotao's suggestion to do another game.
Lin Chong wiped his mouth with the tissue handed over by Ren Lin, and was about to continue talking to Guo Xiao, Ye Zhiwen and others when the alarm ring suddenly rang in his ears.
"Didi!"
The harsh ringtone seemed very abrupt in the darkness and quickly attracted everyone's attention.
"who?"
"Whose phone is ringing?"
"Did the kidnapper call?"
Everyone whispered to each other and quickly checked their cell phones.
"It's me!"
Ye Zhiwen, who was sitting opposite Lin Chong, suddenly stood up with nervous expression: "The one who called me was an unknown number, which was different from the ones used by the kidnappers in the previous few times."
Lin Chong raised his hand and pressed it gently, signaling Ye Zhiwen to be calm and not to speak out.
"Give me your phone."
He spread his palms.
Ye Zhiwen held his cell phone like holding a hot potato, and he wanted to throw it away immediately. He heard that he was like a general amnesty and quickly handed the cell phone to Lin Chong.
Lin Chong glanced at the caller ID and pressed the answer button.
Everyone held their breath, listened with their ears, and did not dare to take a breath, for fear of causing dissatisfaction among the kidnappers on the other side, resulting in an unexpected tragedy.
After about seven or eight seconds, a cold man's voice came from the other end of the phone. He used Yanhuang language. Although his tone was strange and his pronunciation was inaccurate, he could at least understand: "Mr. Ye, when will our request be satisfied?"
In just one sentence, a huge amount of information is revealed.
Lin Chong's eyes suddenly narrowed, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
"We have met the request you made."
Lin Chong learned Ye Zhiwen's tone and pretended to be serious: "A senior executive of the board of directors has been sent to the group headquarters to negotiate with you in person. When will we meet?"
After Lin Chong finished speaking, the other end of the phone fell silent again.
A long ten seconds passed, and the cold male voice rang again: "At 7:15 tomorrow morning, let him go to Kabamiyan alone to wait for the notice. No bodyguards are allowed. If one more person is added, we will kill one more hostage!"
Lin Chong asked: "How can we be sure that the hostages are still alive? At least let me listen to their voices."
"no!"
The male voice flatly refused, and then sneered: "I can guarantee that they are still alive now, but you better hurry up and set off, we have limited patience."
After saying that, the male voice hung up the phone simply and neatly.
Lin Chong's face was as deep as water, staring at his phone without saying a word.
"That... Mr. Zhong, what should we do next? Will you really let Dong Guan go to see the kidnappers alone?" Ye Zhiwen licked his dry lips and asked carefully.
"No."
Lin Chong said expressionlessly: "I'll go for her."
When everyone heard this, they all looked shocked.
Ye Zhiwen and Li Tao looked at each other, and the latter couldn't help but question: "Mr. Zhong, our goal is to save people. Is it really good to deceive the kidnappers?"
Lin Chong was too lazy to speak.
He acted throughout his life, just to have a clear conscience, so why should he explain it to others?
"Manager Li, Mr. Zhong is the chairman's special advisor, so you'd better not question his decision."
Wu Taotao suddenly said coldly: "Do you plan to let the chairman take risks alone according to the kidnapper's request? If an accident occurs, can you afford it?"
Li Tao's face suddenly changed and he waved his hand in a hurry: "No, no, Secretary Wu, you misunderstood. I absolutely have no intention of letting the chairman take risks. I just..."
He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely that he wanted to give himself two mouths.
"The kidnappers don't know who the person sent by the headquarters is, so it's not impossible to ask Mr. Zhong to negotiate on behalf of the chairman." Ye Zhiwen pondered.
"I also think Mr. Zhong's plan is feasible."
Guo Xiao took over the conversation: "The kidnapper's real purpose is unknown, and there may be a bigger conspiracy behind it. Chairman Guan is just an ordinary person, so she must not come forward."
"That's right!"
"No matter what, we must protect the chairman!"
"Everyone can go, but Guan Dong can't!"
The rescue team quickly reached a consensus.
Or, they just don't want to get angry.
Anyway, when the sky fell, there was a tall man holding on, and no one could guarantee that something would happen. Since Lin Chong was willing to take the initiative to take the responsibility, they were happy and relaxed.
Lin Chong looked at Guo Xiao and asked, "Where is Kabamiyan?"
"Kabamiyan is a small town on the border of the Cameron, close to the territory of the rebels, and is about two thousand kilometers away from us."
Guo Xiao pointed to the map and introduced in detail: "To go to Kabamiyan, you must first take a plane to Yawende, the capital of Cameron, and then drive over from Yawende."
Speaking of this, Guo Xiao suddenly frowned: "It's eight:30 p.m. now, and it's only less than twelve hours before tomorrow at 7:00 tomorrow. The kidnappers made this request, probably because they didn't want to give us time to formulate a rescue plan."
"Then let's go." Lin Chong hugged Guan Yuxin and stood up straight.
Everyone did not expect Lin Chong to be so decisive and was stunned for a few seconds before he dispersed.
Guan Yuxin, who was nestled in Lin Chong's arms, had her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes opened a gap.
"it's over?"
Guan Yuxin looked around and found that everyone was packing things. She couldn't help but feel a little surprised: "What's going? Where are you going?"
She looks so cute in a daze.
"You keep sleeping."
Lin Chong lowered his head, looked at Guan Yuxin's beautiful face, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Leave the saving of people to me."
"......good."
Guan Yuxin's cheek was pressed against Lin Chong's chest, and she felt extremely peaceful inside, so she closed her eyes again.
*******
Three o'clock in the morning, African time.
Cameron capital, Yawende.
Lin Chong, who arrived in a private plane, walked out of the airport, followed by Ye Zhiwen, Guo Xiao, Li Tao and several members of the safety team.
Guan Yuxin stayed in a safe place. After all, she was a weak woman. If she insisted on following her, she would have no other effect than causing trouble.
Wu Taotao, Ren Lin, and Hu Yueran were all staying there, and most of the employees of Yuxing Group were also there.
An off-road vehicle was parked outside the airport, and Lin Chong took the key from Guo Xiao and got on the car and started it directly.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by the low roar of the engine, a stream of black smoke came out of the exhaust port at the rear of the off-road vehicle, mixed with a pungent and unpleasant smell of gasoline.
The off-road vehicle is obviously in poor condition, with traces of repair everywhere, but it is already the best means of transportation that Guo Xiao can find.
"Remember, find more people to follow me, don't get too close, and don't get too far away. The bigger the momentum, the better." Lin Chong reminded.
"clear!"
