Chapter 109 Kidnapping

Here's what happened: Jiang Hu and Jiang Yi originally came to find a business partner to sign a contract, but for some reason, the partner suddenly changed his mind, refused to meet with them, and refused to sign the contract. He just disappeared.

When Jiang Hu and his son saw this, they felt something was wrong. They were trying to get back to City C, but before they could call a taxi, they were blocked by these people.

The group of men, wearing masks and such, came in and immediately pointed guns at Jiang Hu and his son, then pulled out a document and demanded that they sign it.

Jiang Hu refused as soon as he saw the document, because it stated that the company's shares and assets were to be transferred to an unknown small overseas company.

Jiang Hu knew that once he signed, he and his son would definitely die, because he guessed that those people would not let him go after he signed the contract, so he resolutely refused to sign.

"Will you sign or not? Believe me or I'll shoot!?"

The leader of the group pointed a gun at Jiang Hu's head, threatening him. His expression and tone were very agitated, as if he would fire the gun at any moment.

One of his henchmen got nervous when he saw his boss's expression. He was afraid his boss would actually start shooting, so he quickly advised, "Hey, hey, don't get so excited. We can't kill them yet. If we're going to shoot, we should sign a contract first, otherwise it'll all be for nothing."

Upon hearing this, the man tried his best to suppress his anger and said, "Okay, I know, but you damn well better figure out a way to get them to sign the contract!"

Jiang Hu and his son Jiang Yi were determined not to sign, so they weren't afraid of their threats. When the subordinate saw their expressions, he smiled slyly and said, "Hehe, boss, don't be impatient. Didn't I say before that we have to use different methods to get them to listen?"

The man in the lead hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then said, "Alright then, go and find the person for me quickly."

After the man left for about ten minutes, he returned with a young man in his early twenties. He said to the young man, "Uncle, these are the two of them. Our boss said that if this works out, you'll get your share of the profits."

The man in the lead said, "Well, as long as they obediently sign the contract, and it's done, you'll naturally get your share of the benefits."

After listening, the young man nodded and said, "Okay, so you want them to obey, right? That's easy."

After the young man finished speaking, he took out a small white porcelain bottle, muttered some incantations to it, and then, amidst the curious gazes of the crowd, opened the bottle and released a cloud of black mist!

The black mist was eerie; after it flew out, it turned into two pale-faced, lifeless ghosts!

"Aaaaaah! A ghost! A ghost!"

"Holy crap! Holy crap! It really is a ghost!"

This wasn't the first time Jiang Hu and Jiang Yi had seen ghosts, so while they were scared when they saw the two ghosts, they weren't terrified. On the contrary, the kidnappers who had brought them here were even more frightened than they were.

When Jiang Yi saw the two ghosts slowly drifting towards them, he immediately took out the talisman that Yue Jiu had given them: "Damn! Dad, where's your talisman? Hurry up and take it out! Luckily, Niannian had already guessed this situation, so she prepared talismans for us in advance."

Jiang Hu, who had been staring blankly at the two ghosts, was reminded by his son and immediately took out the talisman hanging around his neck. He said with relief, "Haha~ You're right, Nian Nian really is a prophet."

The two ghosts were originally obeying their master's orders to possess them, but when they saw that the two people actually had talismans, they immediately became scared and dared not move forward. They retreated directly to the back!

"Tsk~ I didn't expect you guys to have some kind of amulet. In that case, I'll just have to unleash my ultimate move!"

Just as the young man was about to unleash his ultimate move, they suddenly heard police sirens outside the hotel!

"Waaaaah~ Waaaaah~ Waaaah~"

The kidnappers panicked at the sound of the police sirens and frantically tried to escape. The leader, however, angrily pointed his gun at Jiang Hu and demanded, "Was it you? Did you call the police?!"

Jiang Yi proudly pulled out his phone and said, "That's right, it was me who called the police. Although you took one of my phones, I still have another one!"

The lead kidnapper was furious and tried to fire, but found that his gun simply wouldn't fire!

"What's going on?!"

Seeing his boss in this state, one of his henchmen quickly grabbed him and pulled him away to escape. He said, "Oh dear, this gun is fake. Sorry, boss, we couldn't get any real guns, so we bought a toy gun. Let's hurry, the police cars are coming!"

"Ugh! It's fake?! Are you trying to drive me crazy?!"

Although the leader was very angry, he quickly ran away with the others.
