Liang Mo: "Searching the entire mountain range will take at least seven days."
"And we must ensure the safety of the undercover agents."
"He will protect Nian Nian for these seven days."
"Aze, you're a police officer, follow orders."
Liang Mo was also very upset, but Tiger had been entrenched in Wenzhou for a long time and was a local tyrant. If the protective umbrella of this place was not removed, Jiang Jingwen would remain as slippery as an eel.
They have already spent far too much time here. Winter is just around the corner, and once the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, the border stretches for thousands of miles. Finding someone in the dead of winter will be extremely difficult.
They had to race against time.
Moreover, without finding Tiger and without finding any evidence, their team has no real chance to take action.
All that's missing is a trigger, a piece of evidence to seal their fate. Duan Ze's job is to assist them in searching for evidence, and hopefully catch them in the act.
That way, Grandpa can legitimately step in.
In the end, Duan Ze could only swallow his bitterness.
"I want Zhou Luo."
Liang Mo sighed: "I will notify you immediately if I find any trace of him."
"The next telegram will contain words of remembrance for you."
Duan Ze suddenly looked up: "When?"
Liang Mo: "I don't know yet."
Duan Ze took a deep breath. He hadn't slept for over 48 hours, and his eyes were now covered in dark circles.
He said, "Sister-in-law, I can fully cooperate with you, but I absolutely cannot risk Niannian's life. If there is any problem with Niannian, I will not let any of those who hurt her get away with it."
After saying that, Duan Ze ignored Liang Mo and turned to leave.
Liang Mo felt a slight tightness in his heart, and finally couldn't help but sigh again.
It seems we need to close the net ahead of schedule.
Liang Mo stood there for a while, pondered, then turned and went out.
Duan Ze rushed back to his little house without stopping. He had no time to grieve and led his men to organize the evidence they had gathered from various sources.
Originally, it would have taken them at least two months to compile the detailed bills for these transactions, but Duan Ze is now eager to do so.
His subordinates advised him, "Advisor, take a rest. You haven't slept for two days and one night."
Duan Ze simply rubbed his temples and said, "It's nothing, let's continue."
Simultaneously, Duan Ze also maintained constant contact with Duan Ye.
In terms of finding people and recognizing routes, he was not as good as Duan Ye; Duan Ze was better at it.
At this time, dawn was breaking.
Duan Ye has already led his troops, police, and members of the Duan and Luo families to search the mountain. There are a total of four or five hundred people involved, making quite a commotion.
That's exactly what Liang Mo wanted, so she sent some of her people over there as well.
Deep in the jungle, the warehouse door was opened, and Shen Niannian, with ropes tied to her hands, was pulled into the car by Fang Liang.
Fang Liang was now driving, and Ma Zi was sitting in the passenger seat, but Ma Zi was fast asleep.
Shen Niannian: "How can he sleep so much?"
Fang Liang: "After the medication was administered, it will probably be several more hours before he wakes up."
Shen Niannian's eyes widened: "Is this even possible?"
Fang Liang drove all the way up the mountain until the car reached the top. He then got out of the car, took a flip phone from under the chassis, and handed it to the drowsy Shen Niannian.
Chen Niannian: "Why are you giving me your phone? To call the police?"
Fang Liang rolled his eyes at her: "Remember Duan Ze's number? Give him a call. There's a signal here. Tell him I'll send you back in seven days."
"Hurry up, I don't have much time to wait for you."
After saying that, Fang Liang walked to the passenger side, opened the car door, and carried Ma Zi away as well.
Shen Niannian thought... that medicine was quite potent enough to make people dizzy, so there was no need to go to such lengths.
Shen Niannian held the phone in both hands, her eyes inexplicably becoming moist.
Duan Ze was engrossed in his work when his phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was an unknown number.
Duan Ze intended to hang up immediately, but for some reason, he pressed the call button.
"Hey, brother..."
Duan Ze felt as if his blood had frozen, and he almost thought he was hallucinating.
“Recite…recite…” Duan Ze’s voice trembled slightly.
Upon hearing this, Shen Niannian's tears immediately streamed down her face like pearls from a broken string.
Duan Ze suddenly stood up, but felt a wave of dizziness. He barely managed to steady himself by supporting himself on the table with one hand: "Niannian, where are you? Have you been bullied? Tell your brother, and I'll come and get you right now."
Someone rushed over and helped Duan Ze up: "Advisor Duan, are you alright...?"
Shen Niannian's heart tightened, and she quickly wiped away her tears, saying, "Brother, don't worry, I'm fine. Although they tied me up, someone has been helping me. I'm eating and sleeping well. Except for missing you a little, I'm doing great."
He said it would take seven days for him to send me to you…
Shen Niannian organized her thoughts and recounted everything, big and small, about what would happen when she arrived here.
He finally said, "Brother, his name is Fang Liang."
Duan Ze was slightly relieved, because at least Shen Niannian was safe now.
Shen Niannian: "Brother..."
She choked up a little: "I'm fine, the baby is fine too, don't worry about me, the important thing is you, you need to eat well and sleep well, wait for me to come back."
Duan Ze felt a dryness in his throat for no apparent reason. Even at this moment, this silly girl was still busy comforting him.
Duan Ze smiled and said, "Alright, you're always the one waiting for me, waiting for me to propose, waiting for me to come home. This time, it's your turn to wait for me. There are still five and a half days left."
Shen Niannian's tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Five and a half days, such a short time, yet it felt so unbearable to her.
Soon, Fang Liang took her phone and hung up.
Shen Niannian glared at him, but Fang Liang didn't even look at her. He simply pulled out the SIM card and put it into a small shredder, where it was shredded.
Finally, they loaded Ma Zi onto the car.
Chen Niannian sat silently in the back row, tears streaming down her face.
Fang Liang started the car: "With you as a burden, I haven't even cried yet, but you're the one who's already crying."
Shen Niannian: "Then don't bring it! I didn't ask you to..."
Fang Liang glanced at her, then continued driving without saying a word.
Are all women like this? They either burst into tears or start cursing at the slightest disagreement.
He suddenly missed his fiancée who was far away in the capital.
"Hello, Miss Shen..."
"What are you doing?"
"When you return to the capital, could you help me look for someone? Considering I took care of you on the way, you should repay this favor."
Shen Niannian: "Let's talk about it when I get to the capital. I'm a hostage right now, so I can't promise you anything."
Fang Liang shook his head, about to say something, when Shen Niannian awkwardly spoke up again: "If..."
"If there's no danger, that's fine too..."
"But I only agreed because you helped me, so don't push your luck."
Fang Liang smiled, took out a bag of snacks from somewhere, and tossed it at Shen Niannian's feet.
Thanks.
