Chapter 427 Is It Really an Iron Barrel?
She gently stroked Xunxun's hair, her eyes becoming dazed: "Don't blame me, blame yourself for being born in the wrong place."
The sunlight outside the window gradually set in the west, dyeing the lake surface golden red.
Xi Muxuan knew that this game would soon be over.
She picked up her phone and dialed the number of the transnational criminal group: "Be prepared for the response, I got the stuff."
A deep voice came from the other end of the phone: "Remember your promise. After this is done, I want to see the Xuanyuan family completely collapsed."
"Don't worry." Xi Muxuan said with a smile, "I want them to be destroyed more than you do."
After hanging up the phone, she looked towards the door, the smile on her lips growing deeper.
She knew Qi Moxun too well.
I guess there must be a lot of Internet cafes set up around here by now.
It's really funny.
Does Qi Moxun still think she is the former Xi Muxuan?
Do you really think that she would do anything for a worthless man like him?
Of course.
Her previous disguise was enough.
Qi Moxun let his guard down.
Her smile continued to grow.
He turned around and looked at Xunxun beside him.
"Your cheap parents made a mistake, so the son must pay for the father's debt."
Xunxun looked at her somewhat ferocious face.
I was so scared that tears kept falling.
But I don't want to appear too vulnerable and let this person look down on me.
So bite your lips hard.
Even though he bit until it bled, he didn't stop.
Seeing this scene, Xi Muxuan just found it funny.
"You're so young, but you have so many thoughts."
“What a pity!”
She glanced out the window and slowly stood up.
"I don't want to play with you anymore!"
…
The crystal chandelier in the revolving restaurant shook violently amid the sound of sirens, and the reflected light spots were like broken glass, piercing Shen Hanxing's pale face.
She looked at the terrace surrounded by a cordon, with half a torn piece of clothing hanging on the railing.
That’s the teddy bear jacket Xunxun is wearing today!
"Block all exits from the city and check the surveillance!"
Qi Moxun's voice sounded like ice, and his knuckles turned bluish-white from pressing hard on the intercom.
Shen Hanxing suddenly grabbed his arm, his nails almost digging into his flesh.
"That ventilation duct! We checked it, it's clearly welded shut!"
Technicians are prying open the iron mesh of the vent, revealing fresh cracks at the welding points.
"It was forcibly cut open with hydraulic pliers. The incision is very fresh."
The technician's voice was filled with disbelief. "She's already prepared a fallback plan."
Shen Hanxing stumbled backward and bumped into the sharp corner of the dining table.
The tablecloth slipped off, the red wine glass fell to the ground, and the scarlet liquid spread on the marble floor, just like Xunxun's red eyes from crying.
When she agreed to the deal here three days ago, how could she have imagined that Xi Muxuan would dare to take the child away in the police's tight control?
"She took the tracker."
Xuanyuan Ge's voice came from Qi Moxun's intercom, with a suppressed tremor, "The USB drive is still there, but the signal disappeared in the direction of the dock."
Shen Hanxing suddenly looked up and looked through the glass curtain wall at the port in the distance.
In the twilight, several cargo ships were slowly leaving their berths, like giant beasts lurking in the darkness.
She suddenly remembered Xi Muxuan's last weird smile, and her heart felt like it was being gripped by an icy hand.
The woman had no intention of exchanging Xunxun for the documents. From the very beginning, this was a scam.
…
Xuanyuan Pavilion started a video call.
"The document is fake." His voice was as hoarse as sandpaper. "She was deliberately allowed to take the tracker away. The real locator is..."
"In the rabbit pendant she gave Xunxun."
Qi Moxun interrupted him and called up the location map on his mobile phone. The red dot on the screen was moving rapidly along the coastline.
"But the signal is blocked, so we can only see the general direction."
Xuanyuan Ge's eyes fell on the jumping red line, and at that time he thought it was foolproof.
Now I understand that Xi Muxuan has even figured out what clothes the child should wear.
The collar of the bear coat was a double-layer design, and she had discovered the locator and discarded it long ago.
"How did she know our plan?"
Shen Hanxing stood up at some point, his eyes red as if they were about to bleed, “We were not even notified of the time of action half an hour ago.”
Qi Moxun's face darkened instantly.
He looked at the surveillance camera in the corner of the restaurant, then glanced at the police officers present, his Adam's apple rolling: "There's a mole inside."
This sentence was like a spark thrown into a frying pan, instantly igniting everyone's tension.
A moment of silence.
Xuanyuan Pavilion was the first to speak.
"Find Lingling first."
…
Han Lingcui was found in a warehouse at the dock.
She curled up in a corner where discarded fishing nets were piled, holding the USB flash drive containing the fake documents tightly in her arms. Her fingers were embedded in the gap of the plastic shell due to excessive force.
"Where's Xunxun?"
The moment she saw Xuanyuan Ge, she suddenly pounced on him like a madman, scratching his face with her nails, leaving several bloody marks.
"Didn't you say there was a tracker? Didn't you say it would be okay?!"
Xuanyuan Ge let her beat his chest, and his shirt was soon soaked with her tears.
"I'm sorry." He grabbed her wrist, his voice choked with sobs, "I failed to protect you."
"What's the use of saying sorry?" Han Lingcui suddenly collapsed to the ground, whimpering like a trapped animal, "That's our child..."
The five words "our children" hit Xuanyuan Ge's heart like a heavy hammer.
"I will get him back." His voice was close to her ear, with unquestionable determination.
"Even if I have to turn the entire R country upside down, I will find him back."
The barking of police dogs could be heard in the distance. Qi Moxun and his officers were searching the warehouse.
Han Lingcui slowly calmed down in his arms, her fingers unconsciously stroking the pen in his suit pocket.
It was a birthday gift he gave her five years ago, with their initials engraved on the pen cap.
"The car accident that year was not an accident."
She suddenly spoke, her voice so soft it sounded like a sigh, "When I woke up in the hospital, the nurse said the driver died on the spot, but I have a feeling... someone saw me in the car."
Xuanyuan Ge's body suddenly stiffened.
Of course he knew it wasn't an accident.
It was a scheme planned by his mother to make him give up.
He should have confessed to Han Lingcui.
But if he said it out loud, it would be completely impossible for him and Han Lingcui to be together.
They will become enemies.
Because of that car accident.
This was the beginning of Han Lingcui's life change.
"You know, don't you?"
Han Lingcui gritted his teeth.
"I suspect that the car accident must be related to your family."
Xuanyuan Ge's expression instantly became tense.
My heart felt like it was being held up by something, unable to go up or down.
Anxious.
A hint of coldness flashed across Han Lingcui's face.
"If I had died at that time, who would have benefited the most? Xuanyuan Pavilion, don't you think Xi Muxuan is having it too easy? Is your Xuanyuan family really like an iron barrel?"
