Ling Ya's smile immediately vanished, and she couldn't keep up the joke anymore. "Teacher Xu left a few minutes ago. I thought you picked her up."

"No, I encountered a little trouble on the way and was delayed. After I arrived, I couldn't reach her by message or phone."

Jiang Tingzhou's expression was very serious, and he immediately took out his phone to make a call.

Just then, Xiao Sen ran over and said, "I just saw Teacher Xu being picked up by a black car."

Did you see the license plate number? Or did anyone get out of the car?

Jiang Tingzhou pressed for more information.

Xiao Sen tilted his head and thought for a moment: "I didn't see the license plate number, but an uncle got out of the car, ran to Teacher Xu and said a few words, and then Teacher Xu got back into the car."

Jiang Tingzhou suddenly remembered the black sedan he had seen leaving when he drove in.

This is an upscale residential area; registration is required to enter.

There should be a record of that car coming in!

Jiang Tingzhou already had a bad feeling.

Black car.

It reminded him of the car with the fake license plate that picked up Xie Ning a few days ago.

Lingya quickly asked, "Sensen, did Teacher Xu resist or shout at the time?"

Sen Sen shook her head: "No, Teacher Xu got into the car with him very soon."

There are security guards patrolling the community, so if you struggle a little, you shouldn't be easily taken away.

It was rather unusual that Xu Wan was taken away so readily.

Jiang Tingzhou took out his phone and said to Ling Ya, "You call the police first, then find someone to bring a nanny from home to take care of Sen Sen. I'll go to the property management office in the community to check the surveillance footage and entry/exit records."

Lingya panicked and quickly nodded, "Okay."

-

At this moment, Xu Wan was sitting in the back seat of the black sedan, her hands tightly bound together with plastic straps, unable to move even slightly.

The driver was none other than Yu Shuangshuang's husband, Xie Ning.

The man was wearing the same clothes as in the surveillance footage from a few days ago, and a baseball cap.

His HIV infection had clearly worsened; large and small lesions had appeared on his face and arms, with some areas showing small ulcers, which looked quite frightening.

Xu Wan felt dizzy and lightheaded because of her pregnancy, but she dared not sleep.

The reason she cooperated so obediently was that she didn't react in time when Ning Hang rushed over.

When she tried to run away again, Xie Ning used the same trick, taking a syringe and pointing the needle at her.

He said, "This is all my blood. If you don't behave, I'll transfuse my blood into your body."

If you are infected with HIV, you can take blocking medication in a short period of time, with a blocking rate of over 99.9%.

But she's pregnant now and can't take that risk, so she's obediently cooperating.

I don't know how long the car drove before it finally stopped.

Xu Wan's sleepiness had dissipated by half. She looked out the window and saw what appeared to be a desolate, unfinished villa complex. Dozens of villas, barely recognizable as frames, stood amidst a clump of weeds more than half a meter tall, surrounded by broken tiles and crumbling walls, utterly dilapidated.

Xie Ning walked around and opened the car door, ordering, "Get out! Hurry up!"

Xu Wan glanced around. She had no idea that there was such a dilapidated place in the bustling North City.

"What are you dawdling for! Let me tell you, I'm barefoot now and have nothing to fear. If your husband obediently gives you the money, I'll let you go if I'm in a good mood. If you don't cooperate, then killing you now wouldn't be a big deal!"

When Xie Ning spoke, her eyes revealed a desperate ferocity.

Xu Wanzhi had seen such people when he was observing criminal cases.

Luckily, she was wearing flat shoes during her pregnancy.

After Xu Wan got out of the car, Xie Ning ordered her again: "Come with me! Don't dawdle and try to run away. If I find out, I'll beat you to death!"

"Xie Ning." Xu Wan followed behind the man, her steps uneven as she trudged through the pebbles. "Don't be afraid. I definitely won't run away. In a place like this, I can't escape."

Xu Wan was actually very flustered inside, but she could only pretend to be calm.

She was afraid not only of her own safety, but also of the baby in her belly who was less than three months pregnant.

Xie Ning turned around and glared at her: "I never thought that a stupid woman like Yu Shuangshuang could have such a smart classmate as you."

The man seemed to know the way well, clearly having scouted the area beforehand.

To lower Xie Ning's guard, Xu Wan deliberately asked a stupid question: "Was your marriage with Shuangshuang a lie from beginning to end?"
