Chapter 244 Why is it you?
Chapter 244 Why is it you?
"What's wrong? Sister-in-law..." Lin Zhao looked bewildered when she received the call.
When she finally figured out what she had heard, she was frantic: "My sister went back a long time ago! She left after asking me for help! You, you, you Han Xi, how could you be so careless..."
First, she unleashed a torrent of abuse on Lu He, then began to regret not escorting her sister home: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault for being so careless, letting her go home by herself... Waaah!"
Her voice trembled with emotion as she spoke.
Lu He didn't have time to comfort Lin Zhao: "Lin Zhao, don't cry. Listen, you go and inform Shen Tong and Zheng Ming, I'm going to meet the kidnappers. We'll split up, understand? We're going to rescue your sister!"
"Okay, sure." Lin Zhao suppressed her tears, composed herself, and accepted the important liaison task.
Lu He really didn't want to contact Shen Tong herself. She didn't know why, but every time Shen Tong got close, she felt a chill run down her spine.
No. 27 Bingjiang Road...
Although it's near the suburbs, it's only a 30-minute drive away...
Oh, Han Xi doesn't have a driver's license, but thirty-year-old Lu He does, and has been driving for six years. She doesn't care about her role anymore and goes straight back to the Han family home in a supercar.
Lin Zhao ran wildly, the wind whistling in her ears, her hair sticking to her cheeks with sweat.
She was filled with fear and anxiety, her mind constantly replaying the helpless image of her sister being kidnapped.
Only by finding Shen Tong did she feel that her sister had a glimmer of hope. She didn't care about her past dislike for Shen Tong. What terrified her more than breaking up the couple was that her sister might die.
She stood breathlessly at Shen Tong's door, pounding on it, her voice trembling with tears: "Officer Shen, please open the door! My sister has been kidnapped!"
The door slowly opened, and the dim yellow light inside shone on Lin Zhao's terrified face.
"Oh, what kind of joke are you playing on me?" Shen Tong looked at Lin Zhao with some suspicion, but judging from her expression and tear stains, it didn't seem like she was joking.
"It really is Officer Shen, please save my sister!" Lin Zhao treated her with extreme respect this time, calling her Officer Shen and even tugging at her clothes.
Shen Tong didn't question anything further. With a gentle expression, she welcomed Lin Zhao inside, had her sit on the sofa, and handed her a glass of water: "Catch your breath first, sit down and talk slowly."
Then he turned around and closed the interrogation room door tightly, went into the kitchen, took a plate of snacks, and placed it in front of Lin Zhao.
Meanwhile, Lu He had already arrived at the location given by the kidnappers.
She looked up at the dark window above, and without thinking or hesitating, she was determined to go in, even if it meant risking her life.
Pushing open the dark door, the room was dimly lit, and all that could be seen was a chair in the corner with the outline of a person strapped to it; nothing else was visible.
Just as Lu He was about to take out her phone to turn on the light, a beam of flashlight shone directly into her eyes.
As the wind whistled past her ears, Lu He instinctively used the lightness skill she had learned earlier to dodge the opponent's attack.
"You've got some skills?" It was that familiar, hoarse male voice.
Lu He crouched low and leaped into the shadows: "You're such a liar!"
The man didn't speak, but instead swept the room with his flashlight: "Why don't you come out and we can talk?"
Lu He didn't answer, but quietly reached towards the bound person, so quietly that she was as soft as a cat.
The person who was tied up had obviously fainted. Despite the commotion in the room, there was no reaction whatsoever. Even if someone was just gagged, there should have been some sound.
Saving lives was the priority, so Lu He reached out and touched the outline of her ankle, preparing to untie the ropes binding her feet.
"Huh?" The moment I touched it, I realized that the ankle size was wrong.
When they were intimate, Lu He often grabbed Xia Lan's ankles; they were very delicate joints, and...
Why is there leg hair on my ankle?
Her exclamation "Eh?" was clearly heard by the kidnappers, who shone their flashlights, illuminating the bound person entirely within the beam.
"Zheng Ming?" Holy crap, Lu He didn't know whether to get angry or save him, so she simply swung her arm and slapped him hard across the face.
With a "snap," Zheng Ming woke up, and the kidnappers were also stunned by Lu He's act of beating up their own man.
"Ouch! Who hit me!" Zheng Ming woke up and was almost blinded by the light, unable to see anything.
"No, it's you?!" Lu He grabbed Zheng Ming's collar, looking anxiously at the kidnapper. "No, it's him? Didn't you say he was my lover?"
Even the kidnappers panicked: "What do you mean? Isn't your lover him?"
"No, what do you mean? You just arrested him? Is there anyone else?" Lu He just wanted to know where Xia Lan had gone.
"Just... him alone..." The kidnapper panicked. "Didn't you two buy matching rings at the jewelry store yesterday? Weren't you two?"
"What a damn waste of time!" Lu He cursed under his breath, but he had already untied Zheng Ming's ropes without making a sound.
She leaped to the doorway and said, "Zheng Ming, you can run away yourself. I have things to do, so I'm leaving!" Without looking back, she disappeared through the door.
"I'll fucking kill you!" Zheng Ming threw off the ropes binding him and cursed, "Isn't my life worth anything? You heartless bastards!"
By the time the kidnappers realized what had happened, it was too late...
