Han Yixian also called his men, instructing them to search for He Yuhan's whereabouts within City C.
He also learned that the group that ambushed him and Yuhan on the way had not taken any action, and Yuhan's disappearance should not be related to this group.
This made Han Yixian even more suspicious and uncertain. Who exactly had kidnapped Yuhan?
If this group was after him, they should have called him to threaten him. Perhaps there wasn't enough time to call?
Han Yixian instructed his men to capture the group that ambushed him before the New Year as soon as possible, to see if they could obtain any useful information.
He called Gu Qishen again, asking him to help out as well.
Gu Qishen was also very anxious when he heard that He Yuhan had gone missing. He immediately notified some people to secretly search for He Yuhan's whereabouts.
Han Yi first notified everyone who needed to be notified, and then drove straight to the tractor factory.
He asked the old man guarding the tractor factory gate who had been coming in and out during the morning.
It's been less than an hour since He Yuhan left the technical department, so the old man guarding the gate would naturally remember very clearly what vehicles and people have come and gone in such a short time.
The old man said, “Three trucks carrying coal slag left the factory this morning, and two other workers left as well. I know them all; they are long-time employees of our factory, and they didn’t bring anyone with them.”
Han Yixian's heart sank upon hearing the gatekeeper's words. He sensed that He Yuhan had already been taken out of the tractor factory. Those three trucks hauling coal slag were highly suspicious.
At this moment, Pei Zhen arrived with his men and saw Han Yixian at the door.
Han Yixian told Pei Zhen the information he had obtained.
Pei Zhen's heart sank upon hearing this. He said, "I agree with you. I suspect that Comrade He Yuhan was taken out of the tractor factory by those three coal slag trucks. The most important thing now is to catch up with those three coal trucks."
At this moment, Gu Qishen also arrived at the tractor factory by car. As soon as he got out of the car, he heard that they were going to chase after the truck carrying coal slag and said, "Yixian, we need to send three trucks to chase after it. In case the three trucks split up, we can split up and chase after them in three groups."
Han Yi first instructed Liu Jiangtao to organize people to continue searching in the factory. Pei Zhen also sent people to stay at the tractor factory, while he personally followed the people to chase after the trucks hauling coal slag.
After a rapid pursuit, Han Yixian and his team caught up with all three coal slag trucks. One of the coal slag trucks was parked on the side of the road just outside C City, but the people on board had vanished without a trace.
At this point, everyone was certain that He Yuhan had been taken out of City C, but it was hard to say where she had been taken.
Han Yi stared at the truck parked on the side of the road, his whole body filled with murderous intent.
He calmed his anxious and fearful heart and thought that if Yuhan was really taken out of City C by this car, she might have left him some clues in the car.
He got into the car and carefully inspected it. Finally, he found a note with writing on it in the gap of the passenger seat. The handwriting was messy, but Han Yixian recognized it as He Yuhan's handwriting at a glance.
The sign read: "I have some use, I'm safe, go to Kyoto."
Upon seeing this line of text, Han Yixian knew that He Yuhan had been taken to Kyoto. It seemed he had to get up and go to Kyoto immediately.
Pei Zhen stayed behind to handle the aftermath of the case, while Han Yixian returned to the tractor factory.
Liu Gang, who had gone missing, was found by workers at the tractor factory. He had been knocked unconscious and dumped in a secluded corner, but his life was not in danger.
Liu Gang had also been woken up, and he and Yuan Qiwen lowered their heads in shame as they approached Han Yixian.
Liu Gang's eyes were red, clearly from crying. He looked at Han Yixian and said through tears, "Brother Xian, I'm sorry. I didn't protect Yuhan well. She was kidnapped by bad guys. Please punish me."
Yuan Qiwen also sobbed and said, "Cousin, I was so stupid. I was tricked and Yuhan was kidnapped. I'm so sorry."
Han Yixian glared at the two crying young men and scolded them sternly, “What are you crying for? What’s the use of crying now that it’s already happened? What did I tell you this morning? You’re so useless that you two can’t even protect Yuhan.”
Han Yixian felt his heart return to the anxiety and panic he had felt when he first learned that Yuhan had been arrested. It felt as if his heart was being pierced by a sharp sword. He wished he could take Yuhan's place and suffer these hardships himself.
Liu Jiangtao approached Han Yixian, who was radiating murderous intent, and said with deep remorse, "Han, I'm so sorry. We failed to protect Comrade He Yuhan. We were not vigilant enough and were negligent."
Li Xiangyang said guiltily, "We should have had someone constantly following He Yuhan. I was too careless. I'm sorry, Han."
Han Yixian tried his best to calm himself down and said in a heavy tone, "The enemy planned this all along. Even if you were on high alert, you might not have been able to defend against it. Now that things have already happened, it's too late to say anything."
There's definitely a spy inside your tractor factory. The higher-ups will be sending people to investigate, and we hope you'll cooperate.
Liu Jiangtao quickly assured him, "Don't worry, we will definitely cooperate with the investigation."
Gu Qishen, who was standing next to him, said, "The people in your technical department are the most suspicious, because only they know that He Yuhan is coming to your tractor factory today. Also, the blueprints that He Yuhan gave to your factory must be kept strictly confidential to prevent anyone from stealing secrets."
These blueprints are not only useful to our country, but also very valuable to others.
This time, we must investigate thoroughly and expose the spies.
Han Yixian said to Gu Qishen, "Qishen, please follow up on the investigation of the tractor factory for me. My latest information is that the people who ambushed us before the New Year did not take action, so Yuhan's arrest this time should not be their doing."
Gu Qishen asked in shock, "You mean there are others who are also after Yuhan? Who could they be?"
Han Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, but judging from the information Yu Han left me, she must have been useful to them, which is why they captured her."
Gu Qishen's eyes darkened as he said, "Do you think it's possible that Yuhan's design for the new product at the Shuguang Tractor Factory has attracted the enemy's attention? Could they be trying to use Yuhan to obtain new technology?"
Upon hearing this, Han Yixian stared at Gu Qishen for a moment and said, "Your guess is very likely. If that's the case, Yuhan will not be in danger for the time being."
We must thoroughly investigate the tractor factory and remove this obstacle. I'm leaving for Kyoto today to make arrangements and try to bring Yuhan back as soon as possible.
Gu Qishen said, "Don't worry about things in City C, I'll keep an eye on things for you. I'll also take good care of things at home. But when you get back, you should comfort Uncle He and Aunt Hui. It's impossible to hide Yuhan's disappearance from them."
